Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a bamboo ring molding machine for winding a surimi raw material around the outer periphery of a skewer and forming it into a cylindrical shape in the process of manufacturing bamboo rings.

(Prior art) A conventional bamboo ring molding machine includes a molding drum with a band-shaped molding groove on the outer circumferential surface, and a plate-shaped surimi raw material is intermittently inserted into the molding groove of the molding drum. A surimi supplying device, a skewer feeding device that transports the skewer at regular intervals along the outer circumferential upper surface of the forming drum, and a skewer rotation belt device that rotates the skewer in a direction opposite to that of the forming drum. Structures with this feature are known.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, in the case of the conventional bamboo ring molding machine,
The rotation speed of the belt in the skewer rotating belt device was linked in proportion to the rotation speed of the endless chain in the forming drum and skewer feeding device. When the rotational speed of the device is increased, the circumferential speed of the belt in the skewer rotating belt device also increases in proportion to this, which may cause the skewer to rotate too fast, resulting in poor molding, or especially if the skewer has a soft texture. In the case of meat raw material, there is an inconvenience that it does not wrap around the outer periphery of the skewer and is blown away by centrifugal force, so there is a problem that the range of changes in molding ability is greatly limited.

In addition, in order to properly wrap the surimi raw material around the outer circumference of the skewer, it is necessary to change the rotation speed of the skewer depending on the quality of the surimi raw material, but in conventional molding machines, each device is proportionally linked. Because of this relationship, there was a problem in that the molding ability of the molding machine was determined by the physical characteristics.

(Means for solving the problem) The present invention was made with the purpose of solving the above-mentioned problems. a molding drum having a groove, a surimi supplying device that intermittently supplies a plate-shaped surimi raw material into the grooving groove of the molding drum; A bamboo ring forming machine equipped with a skewer feeding device that transfers the skewers at intervals, and a skewer rotating belt device that rotates the skewers in a direction opposite to the forming drum, the drive pulley of the skewer rotating belt device having a variable speed. The structure is such that it is driven via a machine.

(Function) In the bamboo ring molding machine of the present invention, as described above, the driving pulley of the skewer rotation belt device is driven via the transmission, so that the rotational speed of the skewer by the skewer rotation belt device can be increased. This makes it possible to freely and easily change the rotation of the skewer to a speed that suits the quality of the surimi raw material without changing the ability to form bamboo wheels.

Furthermore, since the rotational speed of the skewer can be independently and easily changed as described above, the ability to form bamboo rings can be changed freely.

(Example) Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

First, the configuration of the embodiment will be explained.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the bamboo ring molding machine A of this embodiment includes a molding drum 1 and a skewer feeding device 2.
The main components are a skewer rotation belt device 3, and a surimi supply device 4.

The molding drum 1 is a drum for molding a circular bamboo ring T, and is provided with a band-shaped molding groove 10 on its outer peripheral surface.

The skewer feeding device 2 is a device for transporting the skewers 5 at regular intervals along the outer circumferential upper surface of the forming drum 1, and includes a notched circular guide rail 20 having approximately the same diameter as the forming drum 1, and a small-diameter guide rail 20 having approximately the same diameter as the forming drum 1. Drive side sprocket 21
and an endless chain 22 stretched between the two, and the endless chain 22 is provided with locking claws 23 for skewer transfer at regular intervals.

The endless chain 22 rotates in the same direction as the forming drum 1 (clockwise in FIG. 1), but is linked so that its circumferential speed is slightly slower than the circumferential speed of the forming drum 1.

The skewer rotating belt device 3 is a device for rotating the skewer 5 in the opposite direction to the forming drum 1,
A driving pulley 30, a driven pulley 31, an intermediate pulley 32, and a belt 3 stretched between each pulley.
3, and the lower surface side of the belt 33 is provided so as to be movable in an arc shape along the outer peripheral upper surface of the molding drum 1.

Further, the pulley shaft 30a of the drive side pulley 30
A sprocket 30b is attached via a transmission R, and this sprocket 30b is connected to the same drive source so as to operate in conjunction with the forming drum 1 and the skewering device 2.

The skewer rotating belt device 3 is connected such that the lower surface side of the belt 33 moves in a direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the forming drum 1.

The surimi supplying device 4 is a device for intermittently supplying the plate-shaped surimi raw material G into the molding groove 10 of the molding drum 1. Example: In the drawing, molding is performed using a rotating drum 42 equipped with a molding hole 40 equipped with extrusion pistons (four in the drawing) and a wire 41 for peeling off the plate-shaped surimi raw material G extruded by the pistons. A hopper 44 having a pair of left and right feeding rolls 43, 43 is provided on the upper part of the rotating drum 42.

Note that the rotating drum 4 in the surimi supplying device 4
2 rotates in the opposite direction to the forming drum 1 (counterclockwise in FIG. supply).

In the figure, 6 indicates a skewer feeding device, and 7 indicates a conveyor device for sending out formed skewers.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

Since this embodiment has the above-mentioned configuration, the locking pawl 23 of the skewer feeding device 2 as shown in FIGS.
The skewer 5 fed onto the upper surface of the outer periphery of the molding drum 1 is brought into contact with the lower surface side of the belt 33 of the skewer rotating belt device 3 which moves in the opposite direction to the direction in which the locking pawls 23 are transported, and the skewer 5 is delivered to the upper surface of the outer periphery of the molding drum 1. 1 and is transferred while being rotated in the opposite direction.

In addition, the rotating drum 42 in the surimi supplying device 4
A plate-shaped surimi raw material G extruded from the molding hole 40 of
As shown in FIG. 3, by being stripped off from the rotating drum 42 by a wire 41, the material is dropped and supplied into the molding groove 10 of the molding drum 1 between the respective skewers 5, 5.

The plate-shaped surimi raw material G that has been dropped and supplied into the molding groove 10 is guided by the molding drum 1 whose circumferential speed is faster than that of the skewer, and is bitten into the lower surface of the skewer 5 moving forward and crushed. , by rotating skewer 5
At the same time, the cylindrical outer surface of the bamboo ring T is formed by the band-shaped forming groove 10 of the forming drum 1.

As explained above, in the bamboo ring forming machine A of the present embodiment, as described above, the driving pulley 30 in the skewer rotating belt device 3 is driven via the transmission R. It is now possible to independently change the rotation speed of the skewer 5 by the skewer rotation belt device 3, so the rotation speed of the skewer 5 can be adjusted to suit the quality of the surimi raw material without changing the molding ability of the bamboo wheel T. The settings can be changed freely and easily.

Furthermore, since the rotational speed of the skewer 5 can be independently and easily changed as described above, the molding ability of the bamboo wheels T can be changed freely.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above in detail with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and the present invention may be modified without departing from the gist of the present invention. included.

For example, in the embodiment, a mold-molding type was used as the surimi supplying device, but the present invention is not limited to this, and an extrusion-molding type using a pump and a nozzle may also be used. .

Further, in the embodiment, a case has been shown in which the transmission is interposed between the pulley shaft of the driving pulley and the sprocket in the skewer rotation belt device, but the interposition position may be arbitrary.

(Effect of the invention) As explained above, in the bamboo ring molding machine of the invention, the driving pulley of the skewer rotation belt device is driven via a transmission, so that the skewer rotation belt It is now possible to independently change the rotation speed of the skewer by the device, so the rotation of the skewer can be freely and easily changed to a speed that suits the quality of the surimi raw material without changing the ability to form bamboo wheels. You will be able to do this.

Furthermore, since the rotational speed of the skewers can be independently and easily changed as described above, effects such as the ability to form bamboo wheels can be freely changed can be obtained.
