Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Field of Industrial Application" The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for manufacturing Swiss rolls, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for manufacturing Swiss rolls having a spiral pattern on the outer circumferential surface. .

``Prior Art'' A Swiss roll is a type of Western confectionery that is made from a flat plate of dough that is baked and then rolled into a roll.

FIG. 7 schematically shows an example of a conventional Swiss roll manufacturing apparatus used in manufacturing such Swiss rolls.

In this Swiss roll manufacturing apparatus, a steel band 3 is wound around two rolls 1 and 2, and the steel bands 3 are moved in the direction of arrow A by the drive of a motor (not shown). A supply roll 5 formed by winding a long paper sheet 4 is provided in front of the steel band 3. The sheet 4 fed out from the supply roll 5 is placed on the upper surface of the steel band 3, and is conveyed almost in synchronization with this by running in the direction of arrow A, and is then placed on the subsequent stage of the steel band 3. It is adapted to be wound up on a winding roll 6.

When the steel band 3 runs in the direction of arrow A, if the Swiss roll fabric 12 flows out from the nozzle 11 provided above, the sheet 4
A Swiss roll dough 12 is applied in a flat form on the upper surface of the . This coated Swiss roll fabric 12 is
As the steel band 3 runs, it is fed into a baking machine (oven) 13. The fed Swiss roll dough 12 is heated and baked from both the upper and lower directions. Swiss roll dough after baking 1
2 is hereinafter referred to as Swiss roll material 14. The Swiss roll material 14 is cooled appropriately while being conveyed by the steel band 3, and then peeled off from the sheet 4, and further conveyed in the direction of arrow B by a conveying means (not shown).

Thereafter, the Swiss roll material 14 is cut by a cutter (not shown) in a direction perpendicular to its conveying direction, as indicated by the dashed line C in FIG. The Swiss roll material 14 after cutting is
It is wound in the direction shown by arrow D in FIG.
It is made into a roll as shown in the figure. Although the process of forming the Swiss roll material 14 into a roll can be performed by a machine, it is currently often performed manually. The Swiss roll material 14 may be cut together with the sheet 4, and after the sheet 4 is peeled off, the Swiss roll material 14 may be made into a roll.

By the way, in such a conventional Swiss roll manufacturing device, the flat Swiss roll material 1 after cutting is
The surface of the sheet 4 that was not in contact with the sheet 4 has an almost dark brown burnt surface, while the surface that has been in contact has an almost white burnt surface.

Therefore, after cutting, the flat plate-shaped Swiss roll material 1
When the roll 4 is formed into a roll with the surface that is not in contact with the sheet 4 facing the outer periphery, a Swiss roll whose outer periphery is almost dark brown will be obtained. On the other hand, if the Swiss roll material 14 is formed into a roll so that the surface that was in contact with the sheet 4 is on the outer circumferential side, a Swiss roll whose outer circumferential surface is substantially white will be obtained. When the Swiss roll is manufactured without using the sheet 4, the Swiss roll dough 12 comes into contact with the steel band 3, and this contacting surface becomes slightly burnt in color when fired. Therefore, in this case, it is also possible to obtain a Swiss roll whose outer peripheral surface is slightly dark brown.

``Problems to be Solved by the Invention'' However, the outer peripheral surface of the Swiss roll obtained by the conventional Swiss roll manufacturing method is all a single color, so it lacks visual appeal and has low added value. There was a problem. especially,
Nowadays, not only Swiss rolls, but also other general products, when the quality and price are almost the same, consumers tend to look for high value-added products. Even the taste cannot be ignored.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for producing Swiss rolls that can produce Swiss rolls that are rich in visual taste and have a wide variety of practical tastes. With the goal.

"Means for Solving the Problem" In the present invention, a patterned fabric is suitably applied to the upper surface of the sheet, and then a Swiss roll fabric is applied in a flat plate shape to the upper surface of the sheet, and then these are heated from both above and below. Then, the sheet is peeled off from the baked product, and the peeled sheet is made into a roll shape with the patterned fabric after baking facing the outer periphery to produce a Swiss roll. This is what I did.

According to the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG.
Since the spiral pattern 19 can be applied to the outer peripheral surface of the Swiss roll 18 using the patterned fabric, a visual taste can be obtained, and the presence of the patterned fabric also provides a substantial taste. It can be varied.

"Example" Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to Examples.

FIG. 2 schematically shows an example of a manufacturing apparatus for manufacturing the Swiss roll shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, the same parts as in FIG. 7 are given the same reference numerals, and the explanation thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

In this Swiss roll manufacturing apparatus, a patterned fabric applicator 21 is provided above the steel band 3 and in front of a nozzle 11 for coating Swiss roll fabric. As will be described later, the patterned fabric applicator 21 includes a patterned fabric coating nozzle that is reciprocally movable in a diagonal direction with respect to the conveying direction of the sheet 4.

In this Swiss roll manufacturing device, the patterned fabric is first flowed out from the nozzle of the patterned fabric applicator 21, and as the steel band 3 runs in the direction of arrow A, some of the patterned fabric is on the upper surface of the sheet 4 that is conveyed in the same direction. It is applied in a straight line at an angle of . Next, the Swiss roll fabric is flowed out from the Swiss roll fabric application nozzle 11, and is applied in a flat plate shape onto the upper surface of the sheet 4 and the upper surface of the patterned fabric. The patterned fabric and the Swiss roll fabric applied to the sheet 4 are fed into the baking machine 13 by the running of the steel band 3. The fed patterned fabric and Swiss roll fabric are heated and fired from both the upper and lower directions. After being peeled off from the sheet 4, the fired patterned fabric and Swiss roll fabric are cut in a direction perpendicular to the direction of conveyance thereof by a cutter (not shown). The cut product is rolled into a roll with the patterned material after firing facing toward the outer periphery. This allows the first
A Swiss roll as shown in the figure will be obtained.

If the patterned fabric is, for example, Chiyocolate, a spiral pattern of Chiyocolate color will be applied to the white outer peripheral surface of the Swiss roll. Of course, the pattern formed on the outer peripheral surface of the Swiss roll by the patterned fabric is not limited to a spiral pattern. If the specific gravity of the patterned fabric is made slightly heavier than the specific gravity of the Swiss roll fabric, the former will moderately penetrate into the latter, and the patterned fabric will adhere well to the Swiss roll fabric when fired.

FIGS. 3 and 4 show the patterned fabric applicator 21 in this Swiss roll manufacturing apparatus.

The pattern fabric applicator 21 has a support rod 2 made of a square rod.
It is equipped with 2. One end of the support rod 22 is a support column 23
It is rotatably attached to. The pillar 23 is
Two side frames 2 for supporting the steel band 3
4. A position adjustment member 26 equipped with a set screw 25 is slidably attached to the other end of the support rod 22 . Position adjustment member 2
The lower end portion of the steel band 6 is rotatably and slidably attached to a guide groove 28 provided in a supporting member 27 provided on the other side frame 24 along the running direction of the steel band 3.

Both ends of a substantially U-shaped guide rod 31 are attached to both ends of the support rod 22, respectively. The center portion of the guide rod 31 is parallel to the support rod 22. Support members 3 are installed at two predetermined locations on the support rod 22.
2 are provided respectively. Both ends of another guide rod 33 are attached to these support members 32, respectively. A parallelogram-shaped nozzle support member 34 is attached to the roller 35 on the two guide bars 31 and 33.
etc., so as to be movable in the directions of arrows E and F. Two predetermined sides of the nozzle support member 34 that are parallel to each other are parallel to the running direction of the steel band 3. On these two sides, four first and second nozzles 36 and 37 are arranged at intervals along the traveling direction of the steel band 3. Although not shown, the nozzles 36 and 37 are connected via a hose or the like to a pump for supplying the patterned fabric provided at the outlet of the hopper for storing the patterned fabric. Among these, the hose is suspended from a support frame 38 provided on the support rod 22, and is connected to the nozzles 36, 3.
7 movements can be tolerated.

The nozzle support member 34 is a rodless cylinder 41
is moved in the direction of arrow E or F by driving. The rodless cylinder 41 is arranged parallel to the guide rod 31, and both ends thereof are attached to two supporting members 32, respectively.
The two support members 32 include a limit switch LS1,
A limit switch LS2 is provided in a position adjustable manner, and a limit switch LS3 is provided in a predetermined position of the rodless cylinder 41 in a position adjustable manner. These limit switches can be switched as will be explained later by pressing pieces 43 and 44 provided at both ends of a rod 42 provided on the nozzle support member 34, respectively.

Next, the operation of this patterned fabric applicator 21 will be explained with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.

First, the pump for supplying the patterned material is put into a drivable state, and the changeover switch SW2 for setting the drive control to either automatic or manual is turned off to put the pump into an automatic control state.

When the start switch SW1 is turned on in this state, the compressor 45 for driving the rodless cylinder 41 etc. starts driving, and the relay R1 is energized, and its relay contact R1a
and R1b are both turned on. When relay contact R1b turns on, solenoid valve SOL3
The solenoid valve is in the on state and the solenoid valve is in the off state.
Air is supplied in the opposite direction to the rodless cylinder 41 via SOL2. The solenoid valves SOL3 and SOL2 are provided at predetermined locations on the support rod 22 together with the solenoid valve SOL1, which will be described later.

When air is supplied to the rodless cylinder 41 in the opposite direction, the nozzle support member 34 is moved in the direction of arrow F and reaches the limit position (initial position) of movement in the same direction. Then, limit switch LS1 is pressed by pressing piece 43 and turned on, relay R2 is energized, its relay contact R2a is turned off, and relay contact R2b is turned on. When the relay contact R2b is in the on state, the relay contact R1a is in the on state, so the relay R4 is excited and the relay contacts R4a to R4d are all in the on state. When relay contact R4b turns on, solenoid valve SOL
1 is turned on, the nozzles 36 and 37 are simply opened, and the timer T1 starts its timer operation. When the relay contact R4c is turned on, the solenoid valve SOL2 is turned on, and air is supplied to the rodless cylinder 41 in the forward direction.

When air is supplied to the rodless cylinder 41 in the forward direction, the nozzle support member 34 starts moving in the direction of arrow E. When a certain period of time has elapsed from this point, the timer T1 times up, the contact T1a is turned on, and the pump for supplying the patterned fabric starts driving. Then, the patterned fabric is flowed out from the first nozzle 36, and as the steel band 3 runs in the direction of arrow A, it is transferred to a first area M on the sheet 4 that is conveyed in the same direction (FIG. 4).
The patterned fabric is applied in a straight line at a certain angle. Further, the patterned fabric is flowed out from the second nozzle 37 and is deposited on the second area N on the sheet 4 (FIG. 4).
The patterned fabric is applied in a straight line with the same inclination angle as the previous patterned fabric. That is, in this embodiment, the patterned fabric is applied on the sheet 4 in two rows. The reason why the pump is driven after the nozzles 36 and 37 are opened is to prevent the patterned fabric from rapidly flowing out from the nozzles 36 and 37.

The manner in which the patterned fabric is applied is determined by the relationship between the traveling speed of the steel band 3 (the conveying speed of the sheet 4) and the moving speed of the nozzle support member 34. Further, in order to apply this patterned fabric, loosen the setscrew 25 of the position adjustment member 26, and rotate the support rod 22 of the position adjustment member 26 and the Guide groove 28
It can also be changed by adjusting the position with respect to the position and then tightening the setscrew 25. The amount of patterned fabric applied can be adjusted by adjusting the patterned fabric supply speed by the patterned fabric supply pump and the opening amounts of the nozzles 36 and 37.

When the nozzle support member 34 moves in the direction of arrow E and reaches a predetermined position, the limit switch LS3
is pressed by the pressing piece 44 to turn on. Then, since the relay contact R4d is in the on state, the relay R5 is energized, the relay contact R5a is in the on state, and both the timers T2 and T3 start their timer operations.
When a certain period of time has elapsed from this point, the timer T3 times up, its contact T3a turns off, the timer T1 is initialized, and the pump for supplying the patterned fabric is stopped. When a certain period of time further passes from this point, the timer T2 times up, the contact T2a is turned off, the solenoid valve SOL1 is turned off, and the nozzles 36 and 37 are closed. The reason why the nozzles 36 and 37 close after the pump stops is to prevent pressure from being applied to the nozzles 36 and 37 when they are closed.
This is to prevent the patterned fabric from hanging down unnecessarily from 6 and 37.

When the nozzle support member 34 reaches the movement limit position in the direction of arrow E, the limit switch LS2
4 and turns on, relay R
3 is excited, and its relay contact R3a is turned off. Then, relay R4 is demagnetized and its relay contacts R4a to R4d are both turned off. When the relay contact R4c is turned off, the solenoid valve SOL2 is turned off, air is supplied to the rodless cylinder 41 in the opposite direction, and the nozzle support member 34 is thereby moved in the direction of arrow F. When the nozzle support member 34 moves in the direction of arrow F, the patterned fabric is not flowed out from the nozzles 36 and 37. When the nozzle support member 34 reaches the movement limit position (initial position) in the direction of arrow F, the limit switch LS1 is turned on again. Thereafter, operations similar to those described above will be repeated until the start switch SW1 is turned off.

If limit switch LS1 is off when start switch SW1 is off, relay R2 is demagnetized and its relay contact R2a is on, so relay R1 is energized. The situation will continue. When the nozzle support member 34 reaches the initial position and the limit switch LS1 is turned on,
Relay R2 is demagnetized and its relay contact R2a is turned off. Therefore, the start switch
When SW1 is turned off, the nozzle support member 34 always reaches the initial position and is stopped, regardless of when it is turned off.

When cleaning the patterned fabric applicator 21 after completing the production of Swiss rolls, press the start switch.
Turn off SW1 and inject warm water into the pattern fabric supply pump. In this state, switch
When SW2 is turned on, the solenoid valve SOL1 is turned on and the nozzles 36 and 37 are opened.
Further, when a certain period of time has elapsed from this point, the timer T1 times up, the contact T1a is turned on, and the pump for supplying the patterned fabric starts to be driven. This allows hot water to flow through the nozzles 36 and 37.
The patterned fabric applicator 21 is then cleaned.

If limit switch LS1 is off when changeover switch SW2 is on, relay R2 is demagnetized and its relay contact R2a is on, so relay R1 is energized. be done. Then, the relay contact R1b is turned on, the solenoid valve SOL3 is turned on, and air is supplied to the rodless cylinder 41 in the opposite direction. As a result, the nozzle support member 34 is moved in the direction of arrow F and reaches the initial position, and the limit switch LS1 is turned on, but the relay R2 is energized and its relay contact R2a is turned off, so that the relay R1 is demagnetized, the relay contact R1b is turned off, the solenoid valve SOL3 is turned off, and the supply of air to the rodless cylinder 41 is stopped. Therefore, during cleaning, the nozzle support member 34 is stopped at the initial position.

"Effects of the Invention" As explained above, according to the present invention, a spiral pattern etc. can be applied to the outer circumferential surface of the Swiss roll using patterned fabric, so that a visual taste can be obtained and an additional The value increases, and the presence of patterned fabrics allows for a variety of substantial tastes.
