(Prior Art) Conventional pastry product forming machines are known to use a gear pump or a vane pump as a pump for pumping the surimi raw material to a molding die for extrusion molding the paste product.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, when a gear pump or a vane pump is used as the pressure pump, there are problems as described below.

In other words, gear pumps and vane pumps tend to cause flesh burns due to the material being crushed in the pumping chamber due to their structure, and pulsating flow occurs in the surimi material being pumped, resulting in poor molding and uneven products. There was a problem that it was easy to cause.

In addition, since the gear pump cannot transfer solids, there is also the problem that it is limited to the use of surimi raw materials that do not contain solids.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been made for the purpose of solving the above-mentioned problems. In a pasted product forming machine equipped with a molding mouthpiece for molding, and a pump for pumping the seed valve raw material 4 to the mouthpiece, the pump continuously draws a substantially sine curve along the outer peripheral surface of the rotor shaft. A housing having a rotor with vertically disposed pumping blades, a housing having an annular pumping chamber surrounded by the rotation locus of the pumping blades, and a slit that is slidable in close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the pumping blade and provided in the pumping chamber. A sine pump was used, which was equipped with a scraper gate slidably provided in the axial direction so as to partition the inside of the pumping chamber between the suction port and the discharge port.

(Function) As mentioned above, in the paste molding machine of the present invention, the pumping blades, which are continuous in a substantially sine curve along the outer circumferential surface of the rotor shaft, are used as pumps for pumping the surimi raw material to the die. A housing including a vertically installed rotor, an annular pumping chamber surrounded by the rotation locus of the pumping blades, and a slit that can slide closely against the outer peripheral surface of the pumping blades and provided in close proximity to each other in the pumping chamber. a scraper gate slidably provided in the pumping chamber in the axial direction so as to partition between the suction port and the discharge port;
By using a sine pump with a Molding can be carried out, and since the surimi raw materials are not crushed, there is almost no chance of flesh burns.

In addition, with a sine pump, suction and extrusion are performed simultaneously on both sides of the pumping blade, and the total extrusion amount of both is always constant, so it has excellent quantitative performance and does not cause pulsation, making it possible to make the product uniform. It becomes possible.

The cutting wire 40b of the skewer 40 cuts the sheet into a plate shape of a constant size, and the sheet is then dropped and supplied into the molding groove 10 of the molding drum 1 between the respective skewers 5,5.

Then, the plate-shaped seed valve material G that has been dropped and supplied into the plasticizing till 10 is guided by the plasticizing drum 1 whose circumferential speed is faster than that of the skewer feeding, and is bitten into the lower surface of the skewer 5 moving forward and crushed. As the skewer 5 rotates, it is wound around the outer periphery of the skewer 5, and the cylindrical outer surface of the bamboo ring T is formed by the band-shaped forming groove 10 of the forming drum 1.
