JPS60221049A - Cutter for raw paste of boiled paste food - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:A proximity switch is fitted on the position in a certain distance from the pasta outlet and geared with the transmission clutch for cutter rotation to provide a cutter of high performance. CONSTITUTION:When the pasta 1 for boiled paste food is extruded out of the outlet 2, the proximity switch 3 detects the pasta to connect the transmission clutch 5 whereby the cutter is driven to effect cutting operation. When the pasta breakes, the proximity switch does not contact with the pasta and it can correctly detect it, even when the switch is stained with splashing water or flying flour four hours.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a cutter for dough of so-called dough such as rice cakes, bean paste, and fresh sweets, which cuts the dough of dough of dough to a predetermined size.

Conventional cutters have a contact pressure plate in front of the extrusion port at the front end of the extrusion helical tube that extrudes the dough, within the extrusion range of the dough extruded from the extrusion port, or a contact pressure plate that detects the contact pressure of the dough, or a photoelectric sensor on the left and right sides of the extrusion dough. A photoelectric tube or the like is installed to detect the extrusion position of the fabric by emitting a photovoltaic signal and the fabric crosses this photoelectric tube, and a cutter that rotates close to the extrusion port is linked to the rotation to cut the fabric of a predetermined size. However, when these methods are used, the pressure plate comes into direct contact with the fabric, which makes the surface of the pressure plate dirty, making it difficult for the cut fabric to fall off, and making it difficult to cut fabrics of different sizes. Furthermore, when a phototube is used, the phototube is easily contaminated by water, powder, etc. scattered when cutting the fabric with a cutter, and cannot withstand continuous use for a long time.

The present invention aims to provide a high-performance cutter that eliminates these drawbacks, and has the following configuration.

In other words, the extrusion port (2
) A proximity switch (3) is provided at the front to detect the fabric (1) being extruded at a certain distance from this extrusion opening (2), and the proximity switch (3) rotates along the front edge of the extrusion opening (2) to detect the extrusion opening. (
A cutter (2) that cuts the fabric (1) extruded from
4) A cutter for kneaded food dough is configured in conjunction with the rotation transmission clutch (5).

With this configuration, the present invention has the following effects. That is, when the kneaded dough (1) is extruded forward from the extrusion port (2), when it reaches a position at a constant distance in front, the proximity switch (3) turns the dough (
1) is detected, the transmission clutch (5) is continuously operated, the cutter (4) is rotated and the fabric is cut by the cutter (4) which rotates close to the front edge of the extrusion port (2). However, during this cutting, the proximity switch (3) has the fabric (
1) are not in contact with each other, and even if the surface of the proximity switch (3) gets dirty due to a little water or powder flying around when cutting the fabric, this detection performance is unlikely to be affected greatly, and this proximity switch (3) is the dough (1) extruded through the extrusion port (2).
), the cutter (4) can be deviated greatly forward from the rotating surface of the cutter (4), preventing water, powder, dough layers, etc. from scattering due to the centrifugal force of the cutter (4). It is possible to secure a position that is difficult to cut, and maintain stable size cutting performance for a long time.

In the illustrated example, the extrusion port (2) opens at the front end of the extrusion tube (6), and the extrusion tube (6) has a pair of left and right spirals (71
(7), gear (8) and pulley (9)
It is mounted on a shaft for interlocking rotation. The pulley (9) is a split pulley that is pressed from the outside by a spring (In).
) is provided with a feeding funnel for feeding the dough (1).

The cutter (4) has a shaft (1υ
and can be rotated in contact with the front edge of the extrusion port (2). The interlocking clutch (5) is rotationally interlocked via a motor (121, chain (+3), shaft (14), chain (+! The clutch is equipped with a brake and can be braked to immediately stop the driven side when the clutch ψ slips.The driven shaft of this clutch (5) and the above-mentioned shaft (11)
and Cheno (formerly linked).

In addition, an endless variable speed boolean is provided on the shaft 0, and a ■belt (
The distance between the pulleys (lη and lη) can be adjusted by turning the handle (+'l), and continuously variable speed is achieved.

The proximity switch (3) connects the clutch (
5), and there is also a cam G! at the tip of the shaft (11). l)
This cam (2+1) maintains the electromagnetic clutch (5) at 1 until the cutter (4) rotates once by linking this with the relay circuit 12G, and when the cutter (4) rotates once, the circuit closes. The clutch (6) is disengaged by disengaging the clutch (6).

The helix (7) is rotated by the electric power of the motor 0 and the extrusion tube (
6) Push out the dough (1) supplied to the front through this extrusion port (2). Proximity switch (3)! Js this fabric (
1) When detecting the approach (10 to 15 mm),
Clutch (5) is turned on via relay +213,
Turn the cutter (1/D) once to cut and separate the dough (1) coming forward from the extrusion port (2) from the edge of the extrusion port (2) and drop it downward, and the cutter (4) returns to its original position. Once stopped at this position, the next fabric (1) is extruded again, and the cutting with the cutter (4) is repeated intermittently as described above.Turn the handle (lLJ) to adjust the rotation speed of the helix (7). If you change .

Since the cutter (4) rotates at a constant rate, the cutting size of the fabric (1) can be changed and adjusted.
