[Industrial applications]

 The present invention mainly relates to a confectionery molding apparatus for press-molding a raw material in which wheat powder such as falling geese, sardines and the like, sugar, starch syrup and the like are put.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Various molding devices of this type have been proposed in the past, but since the main raw material consists of powder and sugar, it is lightweight and easy to scatter, and the adhesive strength weakens over time, so it must be molded quickly. It was difficult to obtain a product that had variations in the finished product and was satisfactory. Therefore, the present inventor first discloses, as Japanese Patent Publication No. 63-10984, a raw material feeding frame for feeding the raw material and a quantitative plate for quantitatively feeding the raw material by moving back and forth between the hopper for feeding the raw material and the lower mold. Proposed a device.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. A rotating pin 2 is provided on the outlet side of a hopper 1 for supplying the raw material to prevent the raw material from bridging.

A fixed quantity plate receiving plate 3 is installed below the hopper 1. On the platen receiving plate 3, the platen 4 can be moved on the platen receiving plate 3 through the operating rod 6 by an appropriate power such as compressed air installed in the control box 5 or electricity. There is. A raw material storage hole 7 for storing a fixed amount of raw material is provided on the front end side of the fixed quantity plate 4 so that the side surface is tapered so that the raw material can easily flow down. Further, a raw material feed frame 8 formed of a rectangular frame is placed on the fixed quantity platen 4, and it can be moved on the fixed quantity platen 4 by an operating rod 9 provided in the control box 5.

A shutter 10 is provided between the raw material feeding frame 8 and the hopper 1 so that the operating rod 11 provided on the control box 5 can be used to open and close the hopper 1.

On the other hand, a stopper block 12 is fixed to the lower surface of the tip of the platen 3 for receiving the quantity plate, and two operating rods 13 provided on the control box 5 are provided on both sides of the stopper block 12. A lower die pin receiver 14 is provided at the tip of the actuating rods 13 on both sides, and a pin 16 provided at one end of the lower die 15 is fitted into the lower die pin receiver 14 to connect the operating rod 13 and the lower die 15. It has become. The lower mold 15 is provided with moving wheels 17, 17 ,.

A limit switch 22 is provided on the stopper block 12. Although not shown, a pin for activating the limit switch 22 is provided at the center rear part of the stopper block. Further, a pressing die 20 which is moved up and down by an air cylinder 19 is provided above the tip of the platen 3 for receiving the quantity plate, that is, one of the molding positions, and a product take-out chute 21 is provided at a standby position of the lower mold 15.

The present embodiment is configured as described above and supplies the raw material into the hopper 1. At this time, the shutter 10 is in the closed state, the raw material feed frame 8 and the raw material storage hole 7 of the quantification plate 4 are located below the outlet of the hopper 1, and the lower mold 15 is waiting at the front standby position. However, the die 20 is waiting in the raised position.

When a start switch (not shown) is turned “ON”, the lower mold 15 moves in the molding position direction. On the other hand, the shutter 10 is opened to supply the raw material to the raw material feeding frame 8 and the raw material storage hole 7. When this raw material is supplied, the amount reduced by the previous cycle is dropped and replenished from the hopper 1, and the shutter 10 is closed immediately after the replenishment.

When the lower die 15 moves and comes into contact with the stopper block 12, the limit switch 22 is turned “ON” as shown in FIG. 2, and the raw material feed frame 8 and the fixed quantity plate 4 move simultaneously. When the raw material storage hole 7 of the quantitative plate 4 reaches above the lower mold 15, the movement is stopped, and the raw materials in the raw material storage hole 7 and the raw material feed frame 8 are dropped into the lower mold 15.

After that, in the middle of the arrow A for returning the raw material feed frame 8 to the current position, the raw material feeding frame 8 advances again as shown by the arrow B, returns to the molding position, and more sufficiently blocks the raw material inside the lower mold 15. To do so. Next, only the raw material feeding frame 8 is returned to the current position, and the fixed quantity plate 4 holds the molding position. At this time, the shutter 10 is opened and closed to feed the raw material into the raw material feeding frame 8.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 3, the air cylinder 19 is operated to lower the pressing die 20 to press the raw material. Next, the die 20 is raised and returned, and when only the raw material feed frame 8 is advanced to the molding position as shown in FIG. 4, the raw material is dropped through the quantitative plate 4 onto the pressed molded product.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the raw material feed frame 8 and the quantitative plate 4 are returned to their original positions, and the shutter 10 is opened and closed to feed the raw material into the raw material feed frame 8 and the raw material storage holes of the quantitative plate 4. Throw in 7. On the other hand, the pressing die 20 is lowered and finish press is performed to finish the back surface of the product, and then the pressing die 20 is made to stand by at the raised position. Then, the lower die 15 is advanced as shown by the chain line, the product take-out chute 21 is made horizontal as shown by the chain line, and then the lower die 15 is inverted and dropped onto the product take-out chute 21, and the lower die 15 again. To the original position, and the product take-out chute 21 is inclined as shown by the solid line to convey the product to the desired position.

[Effect of device]

 Since the present invention has the structure and operation as described above, it is possible to perform uniform finishing with two presses, sufficient pressure is applied, and a uniform product with very little variation in individual hardness is obtained. can get. Further, since the fixed quantity plate and the raw material feed frame reciprocate on the fixed fixed quantity plate receiving plate, excess raw material does not leak outside.
