Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a cutting device for confectionery dough, etc., and in particular, to a device for cutting out confectionery dough, etc., which continuously cuts confectionery dough, etc. into a die punched into a desired shape, and continuously cuts out confectionery dough, etc. in the desired shape. This invention relates to a cutting device for baking confectionery dough, etc.

Conventionally, there has been a continuous movement of endless movement, for example, confectionery dough (hereinafter simply referred to as "dough") on a steel band.

) is cut out and baked to produce gastera and other sweets. This manufacturing device can cut the dough across the entire width of a steel strip of a desired width, and while the steel strip is continuously moving, can bake the dough and make confectionery. When the dough is to be cut out, it is necessary to cut it into a mold that has been punched out in the same shape as the desired shape on a steel strip, which poses a technical problem. Continuous cutting of fabric is rarely done. That is,
Continuous baking of the dough is performed while the dough dropped onto the steel strip is continuously moved together with the steel strip.

Therefore, in this baking, unlike the usual baking on a fixed plate, the dough is moved and baked, so the dough is molded into the desired shape with an average thickness i. It's almost impossible. From this point on, despite the fact that rolled confectionery, especially high-end rolled confectionery that contains many ingredients such as eggs and milk, requires continuous shaping and baking of the dough.
The problem is that it cannot be achieved. The present invention was developed in line with the above-mentioned points, and particularly provides a cutting device for confectionery dough, etc., which is capable of cutting dough into a mold with a uniform thickness on a continuously moving movable plate. The purpose is to make suggestions. That is, the present invention provides a template for cutting out confectionery dough, etc. into a mold that is punched into a desired shape by being brought into contact with an endless moving plate that moves continuously, and at least a tip edge of the template is in contact with the surface of the template. The device is configured to include a pushing plate whose rear edge is inclined upward, and a storage chamber for temporarily storing the confectionery dough, etc. pushed by the pushing plate, and to supply the confectionery dough, etc. to the storage chamber. , the template is moved at substantially the same speed as the endlessly movable plate, and the pushing plate is configured to be slidable relative to the template with its tip edge in contact with the template. Features.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Note that FIG. 1 is a side view showing a part of a cutting device according to one embodiment of the present invention in cross section, and FIG.
The figures are a plan view and a perspective view, respectively, of a mold plate and a pressing plate in the apparatus of FIG. 1.

In FIGS. 1 and 3, reference numeral 1 indicates a moving plate usually made of steel strip, and this moving plate 1 is wound, for example, between a pair of rolls (not shown) to form an endless track. A heating chamber 2 is provided below the movable plate 1, and the dough is baked during continuous movement of the movable plate 1. Next, the template 3 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) is placed on the movable plate 1 having the above structure so as to be in contact with the surface of the movable plate 1.
A plurality of molds 4 having a desired shape are formed.

Further, as is well known, dough is cut into these molds 4 and baked into the same shape as the molds 4.
Next, in the template 3 according to this configuration, the template 3 is configured to be movable when the relative speed with respect to the movable plate 1 is substantially zero.

For such a configuration, it is sufficient to provide the template 3 with a drive mechanism, but as shown in FIG. It is preferable that the hopper 6 is fixed and the frame 5 itself is configured to be movable. This is because, as described later, after cutting the dough into the mold 4, the mold plate 3
This is because it is convenient for raising in the direction of arrow A and then retreating back to the original position. Next, after configuring the template 3 to be movable, a push plate 7 is provided on the template 3.

The pushing plate 7 has at least its leading edge 7a in contact with the template 3, and its trailing edge 7b. is inclined upward, and the upper part of the push plate 7 is partitioned by a partition wall 8 and closed by an upper lid 9 to form a storage chamber 10.
form. Also, at this time, the pushing plate 7 is tilted, and the tip edge 7a is brought into contact with the template 3, and the pushing plate 7 is moved toward the template 3 in the forward direction, that is, in the direction of arrow B. It is configured to be movable relative to the other. With this configuration, the dough cut out from the hopper 6 enters the storage chamber 10 from the direction of arrow C;
It is cut uniformly into the mold 4. That is, the dough in the hopper 6 is cut out through a pair of feed rolls 11 and enters the storage chamber 10.

Further, in the storage chamber 10, the dough flows along the inclined surface of the pushing plate 7 in the direction of the arrow. Moreover, in this case, in particular, the pushing plate 7 slides at the required relative speed with respect to the template 3, so that the dough sequentially and smoothly descends on the pushing plate 7,
The required amount of dough is cut out.Furthermore, the dough thus cut out is smoothed in the mold 4 by the tip edge 7a of the pushing plate, so that the dough is cut out uniformly. After cutting out the dough, that is, after the pushing plate 7 reaches the tip of the mold 4 (dotted line area 7 in FIG. 2), the pushing plate 7 is quickly moved in the direction of arrow D by a quick return mechanism (not shown). When the template 3 returns to its original position by rotating the crank 12 and returns to its original position in this state, the desired shape of the dough remains on the movable plate 1. It is sufficient to drive the chamber 10 by configuring these components integrally, for example, by providing a drive mechanism (not shown) at the end of the drive rod 13.

As explained in detail above, in this machine, the fabric is cut from the hopper through the storage chamber and the pushing plate, and this pushing plate moves at a relative speed to the moving template, so it is continuously cut out. Even on a moving board, the dough can be cut out uniformly and smoothly.
