Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus that can simultaneously fill ice cream containers arranged in a spirally stacked manner with different types of foods in a striped manner on the outer peripheral surface.

The details of one embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

The outline of the device 1 of the present application is as follows. In a device that automatically fills the frozen dessert viscous substance I into the cup 3 by rotating the nozzle 2 and moving the nozzle or the cup 3 up and down, the nozzle 2 supplies a different kind of food IA such as thiokolate to the outside of the nozzle 2. The outer cylindrical tube 2G for
The inside and the nozzle 2 are configured to communicate with each other through a small hole 2H, and while changing the separation speed and injection pressure between the nozzle and the cup, the nozzle or the cup is moved up and down, and furthermore, when moving up and down, the above-mentioned They are configured to be spirally stacked by increasing or decreasing the rotational diameter of the nozzles.

Each component will be specifically explained below.

Parallel front and rear frames 4 made of angle wood etc.
It consists of A, 4B and supporting legs 4C. Cups 3 parallel to each other from left to right on the top surface of frame 4
A known transfer device 5 for intermittently transferring is provided,
On the other hand, a shaft 7 that is raised and lowered by an elevating cam 6 is disposed in the front and rear frames 4A, 4B, and the upper end of the shaft 7 is
They are connected by a beam 7B, and a nozzle support plate 8 is suspended from a bracket 7C provided on the beam 7B via a shaft 10. The upper and lower ends of the shaft 10 are connected to the bracket 7C and the nozzle support plate 8 through known spherical bearings 10A, so that the nozzle support plate can swing freely. Nozzles 2 corresponding to the juxtaposed cups 3 are attached to the support plate 8 in parallel, and the valve 2B of the nozzle 2 is configured to be openable and closable by an attached valve opening/closing cylinder 2A. On the other hand, a spindle 9 is rotatably installed in the front and rear frames 4A, 4B parallel to the shaft 7,
In addition, this spindle 9 is configured such that its upper end 9A and lower end 9B coincide with the rotational axis 9D of the spindle 9, and furthermore, the spindle 9 has an eccentric portion 9C which is curved in an eccentric state at a portion other than the upper end 9A and the lower end 9B.
It is becoming. Although this spindle has a left and right pair, the eccentric portions 9C are curved in the same direction. This spindle 9 is inserted into a circular hole 8A formed in the support plate 8, and when filling the ice cream, a cam 9E, a limit switch 9F, a speed controller 9G, a continuously variable speed motor 9H,
It is configured to rotate by a bevel gear box 9I and a chain wheel 9J.

Next, a mechanism for operating the filling nozzle 2 will be explained.

Cups 3 to be filled immediately below the filling nozzle 2 are sequentially fed out in a known manner and stopped. Nozzle 2 reaches point _S1 along cam 6. That is, nozzle 2
reaches the container t ₁ ′ point. At that point, the valve opening/closing cylinder 2A is actuated by a separately placed signal, and the valve 2B on the nozzle opens and the frozen confectionery viscous substance is ejected from the nozzle 2. Nozzle 2 moves from _point S by the movement of the cam.
The cylinder 2A moves to point S ₂ , and at point S ₃ , the cylinder 2A is activated again by a separate signal, and the valve 2 on the nozzle is activated.
B is closed and the emission of the frozen confectionery viscous substance is stopped. However, since the tip of nozzle 2 is narrowed, pressure remains in nozzle 2 even when valve 2B is closed, so the cam stops at the same position from point _S3 to point _S3 '.
With the pressure gone, the cam moves from point S ₃ ' to point S ₄ and separates the viscous frozen dessert from the cup. Above we have described the height of the product from point t ₀ to point t ₄ and the operation of the cam, but next we will explain the relationship between the rotation of the nozzle and the spindle. From point t ₁ to point t ₂ of the product, fill up to cup 3, fill from point t ₂ to point t ₃ in a spiral shape, and from point t ₃ to point t ₄ , fill it up in a thin layer. Also,
Cam S ₁ point to S ₂ point matches the product's t ₁ point to t ₂ point, S ₂ point to S ₃ point matches the product's t ₂ point to t 3 point, S _{3 point} to S ₄ point matches the product's t ₃ to t ₄ points. In addition, the spindle 9 points from p ₀ to p ₄ are the products.
The heights match from t ₀ point to t ₄ point. The part that makes the product spiral is from point t ₂ to point t ₃ , and the corresponding spindle is from point p ₂ to point p ₃ , but in order to make the product spiral from point t ₂ , point p ₁ of spindle 9 is It is necessary to apply a drive from point ′ and move it to point _p2 . That is, the spindle 9 operates the limit switch 9F from the cam 9E, and the continuously variable speed motor 9 operates according to the speed (rotation speed) control value of the speed controller 9G.
H is rotated, and the spindle 9 is rotated via the bevel gear box 9I. Even if rotation is given to this spindle 9, the spindle will change from p ₀ to p ₁ and p ₃ .
The area between p ₄ is the same as the spindle center axis and does not rotate.
The diameter eccentric to the spindle core between points p ₁ ′ and p ₃ is the same as the product diameter. i.e. products t ₁ to t ₂
Until then, the nozzle 2 rises vertically and fills the cup 3 with the frozen confectionery viscous material, and from t ₂ to t ₃ , the nozzle 2 rises vertically and fills the cup ₃ with the frozen confectionery viscous material.
The frozen confectionery viscous material is piled up in a spiral shape while changing the rotation diameter by the eccentric movement of p ₃ , and the products from t ₂ to t ₃ become conical and have a smaller diameter as they move upward.
That is, it matches the movement of the diameter of spindle p ₁ to p ₄ , and the position of t ₄ in the product is t ₄ in the top cross-sectional view, and the height of t ₄ in the spindle is the same as in the spindle cross-sectional view.
Nozzle 2 is located at p ₄ . Furthermore, the shape of the product can be changed by changing the shape of the tip of the nozzle 2. As described above, the nozzle 2 is equipped with an outer cylindrical tube 2G for supplying a different type of food A such as chiyocolate on the outside of the nozzle 2, and the inside of this outer cylindrical tube 2G and the nozzle 2 are connected to the small hole 2H.
It is structured in such a way that it communicates with the In the figure,
2C is a valve opening/closing lever, 2D is a star-shaped discharge port in the nozzle, 2E is a circular discharge port, 6A is a camshaft, and 7A is a lifting bearing.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be explained together with the effects.

The frozen confectionery viscous material I is fed under pressure from the X direction through the valve, passes through the nozzle 2, and is discharged from the discharge port 2E.
Foreign food A, such as chiyocollate, on the outside of nozzle 2
An outer cylindrical tube 2G for supplying food is screwed onto the nozzle 2, and the different type of food A is supplied through a pipe 2F connected to the outer cylindrical tube 2G. 2H is outer tube 2
Since it is a small hole that communicates with G and the inside of the nozzle 2, if the different food A is fed under pressure from the Y direction, the different food A will reach the inside of the nozzle 2 via the pipe 2F, the outer tube 2G, and the small hole 2H. If viscous frozen dessert I is fed from
is discharged in a streaky state. On the other hand, when filling the cup 3, the nozzle support plate 8 is at the position of the eccentric portion 9C of the spindle 9, and the nozzle 2 does not rotate on its own axis but only revolves around the center of the cup 3 and rises. Frozen confectionery viscous material I
are piled up in a spiral while twisting. Therefore, the foreign food A that is streaked around the outer periphery of the viscous frozen dessert also becomes a twisted streak (see FIGS. 23 to 27). Note that the number of these lines may be adjusted appropriately by adjusting the holes that communicate with the inner tube and the outer tube. In addition, different types of food in the outer tube can be injected into the viscous frozen confectionery in a timely manner by intermittent pressure from a separately placed pump. Different kinds of food come out from the tip of the nozzle on the surface of the frozen confectionery viscous material, and the frozen confectionery viscous material that comes out is rotated by the rotation of the spindle at the same time as the cam ascends directly above the container, and at the beginning of filling, it rotates as it rises to the center of the container. Different types of foods can be simultaneously filled in a streaky manner on the surface of the frozen confectionery viscous material stacked in a spiral manner by increasing and decreasing the diameter and returning to the center when filling is completed.

The effects of the present application are as follows.

Until now, there was a method of manually filling two colors of frozen dessert viscous substances of the same sex, but there was no method of stacking frozen desserts and non-frozen desserts at the same time and in a spiral shape. In order to respond to the currently diversifying tastes of consumers, it is possible to make changes by not changing the basic frozen desserts, but by changing different types of foods to match the fashionable tastes of consumers at the time. Furthermore, by increasing the number of nozzles, this device can automatically produce handmade ice cream in large quantities. In addition, according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 23, the different types of food on the surface are rotated so that they are always turned over to the center of the frozen dessert, so that the viscous frozen dessert and the different types of food mix and become delicious.
