OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La invención ahora propugnada consiste en un sistema de refrigeración para troqueladoras de caramelos y otros perfeccionamientos de esta producción, de entre aquellos medios de control térmico automático de productos diversos .The invention now advocated consists of a cooling system for candy die cutters and other improvements of this production, among those automatic thermal control means of various products.
Caracteriza esta invención una especial construc- ción de la troqueladora, que incorpora una cámara provista de medios de refrigeración que posibilita el incremento de la velocidad de producción sin deterioro del producto a troquelar y con control automático de la temperatura de éste .This invention is characterized by a special construction of the die cutter, which incorporates a chamber provided with cooling means that makes it possible to increase the production speed without deterioration of the product to be punched and with automatic temperature control thereof.
Complementan a este sistema unos refuerzos del troquel mediante unos cojinetes extremos, unos medios de alimentación del caramelo separados del cabezal de troquelado, de retención de palos cuando se producen fallos en la alimentación de caramelos y, por último, otros de desmontaje rápido de la zona de troquelado.This system is complemented by die reinforcements by means of extreme bearings, candy feeding means separated from the die cutting head, stick retention when candy feeding fails and, finally, others for rapid dismantling of the area die cut
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
En la producción en continuo de caramelos troquelados, a partir de cordón y, más concretamente, en los casos de cordones de 20 y de 30 mm de diámetro, especialmente para aquellos caramelos provistos a continuación de un palo, la calidad del acabado del caramelo es función de la velocidad de fabricación que, al llegar a determinados límites, produce un recalentamiento indeseado en el producto y una defectuosa presentación del producto acabado, al extremo de que la velocidad es un factor límite en la producción.In the continuous production of die-cut candies, from cord and, more specifically, in the case of 20 and 30 mm diameter cords, especially for those candies provided following a stick, the quality of the candy finish is function of the manufacturing speed which, upon reaching certain limits, produces an unwanted overheating in the product and a defective presentation of the finished product, to the point that speed is a limiting factor in production.
Por esta razón es por lo que las máquinas convencionales tienen limitada por el fabricante su velocidad de producción, bastando como ejemplo genérico la patente europea n° 073535, denominada .-"Máquinas perfeccio- nadas para la fabricación de confitería, especialmente de caramelos" .For this reason it is why conventional machines have their production speed limited by the manufacturer, the European patent n ° 073535, called .- "Improved machines for confectionery manufacturing, especially candies" being a generic example.
Para incrementar esta velocidad sin que se produzca este deterioro visible del caramelo se requieren medios de refrigeración del cabezal de troquelado y alimentación del producto independiente del cabezal.To increase this speed without this visible deterioration of the candy, cooling means of the die cutting head and feeding of the independent product of the head are required.
El solicitante desconoce la existencia de máquinas de fabricación de caramelos de las características de la que ahora se pasa a describir.The applicant is unaware of the existence of candy-making machines of the characteristics that are now described.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
La invención objeto de la presente memoria se refiere a un sistema de refrigeración para troqueladoras de caramelos, de entre aquellos medios de control térmico automático de productos diversos que incorporan, en el interior del propio cabezal de formación de las piezas o elementos individuales de la producción, unos medios adecuados de refrigeración, sea ésta en circuito abierto o en circuito cerrado, así como con independencia del medio refrigerante utilizado.The invention object of the present report refers to a cooling system for candy die cutters, among those means of automatic thermal control of various products that incorporate, inside the formation head of the individual parts or elements of the production , suitable cooling means, be it in open or closed circuit, as well as independently of the cooling medium used.
Caracteriza esta invención una especial construc- ción de la troqueladora, que incorpora en el propio cabezalThis invention characterizes a special construction of the die cutter, which incorporates in the head itself
HOJA DE SUSTITUCIÓN (REGLA26) de fabricación convencional de los caramelos, preferentemente de los caramelos provistos con un palo de sujeción, aún cuando no se descarte su aplicación a otro tipo de golosinas, una cámara provista de medios de refrigeración, preferentemente por medio de agua, bien en circuito abierto o bien conducida a un depósito, a su vez refrigerado convencionalmente, en función de las necesidades y legislación del lugar de fabricación, que posibilita el incremento de la velocidad de producción sin deterioro del producto a troquelar y con control automático de la temperatura.SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) of conventional manufacture of candies, preferably of candies provided with a holding stick, even when their application to other types of sweets is not discarded, a chamber provided with cooling means, preferably by means of water, either in open circuit or well conducted to a tank, in turn conventionally cooled, depending on the needs and legislation of the place of manufacture, which allows the increase in production speed without deterioration of the product to be punched and with automatic temperature control.
A tales fines, el propio cabezal incorpora lateralmente esta cámara y dispone de sendos conductos, de alimentación y retorno del medio refrigerante, de extremos quebrados, de modo que acceden a las zonas extremas del cabezal en contacto con el producto.For such purposes, the head itself incorporates this chamber laterally and has two conduits, for feeding and returning the cooling medium, with broken ends, so that they access the extreme areas of the head in contact with the product.
Complementan a este sistema unos refuerzos del troquel mediante unos cojinetes extremos, de modo que la pista sobre la que avanza el troquel encargado de la conformación del bloque de caramelo, generalmente de forma esférica más o menos regular, está provista de una serie de cojinetes, que evitan el desgaste de los ejes sobre la pista, consiguiéndose un troquelado más uniforme y más preciso de esta pieza de caramelo.This system is complemented by reinforcements of the die by means of extreme bearings, so that the track on which the die in charge of forming the caramel block advances, generally of a more or less regular spherical shape, is provided with a series of bearings, that avoid the wear of the axles on the track, getting a more uniform and more precise die cutting of this piece of candy.
Las tapetas de troquelado están asimismo provistas de unos cojinetes que facilitan la apertura de las mismas una vez troquelado cada caramelo.The die cut plates are also provided with bearings that facilitate their opening once each candy has been cut.
Dispone igualmente de unos medios de alimentación del caramelo separados del cabezal de troquelado, en base a incorporar un servomotor, independiente del cabezal de troquelado y dispuesto en sus proximidades, que actúa directamente sobre el calibrador de las piezas troqueladas, con lo que en los cambios de formato de piezas, se ahorra el personal para el cambio de piñones y de poleas y el tiempo de su realización.It also has means for feeding the caramel separated from the die-cutting head, based on incorporating a servomotor, independent of the die-cutting head and arranged in its vicinity, which acts directly on the gauge of the die-cut pieces, with what in the changes of format of pieces, it saves the personnel for the change of pinions and pulleys and the time of its realization.
Caracteriza también unos medios de retención de palos cuando se producen fallos en la alimentación de caramelos que conllevan la puesta en marcha, en estos casos, del sistema de retención de palos, evitando no sólo la alimentación innecesaria de éstos, sino los atrancos que puedan originar en los medios de alimentación por la ausencia del caramelo que dejan de incorporar los mismos.It also characterizes stick retention means when there are failures in the feeding of candies that entail the start-up, in these cases, of the stick retention system, avoiding not only the unnecessary feeding of these, but the jams that can originate in the means of feeding by the absence of the candy that they stop incorporating the same ones.
Dispone para ello de un pistón lateral al depósito de palos, de eje prolongado y quebrado, así como provisto su extremo libre de una curvatura adecuada a la de los medios de alimentación de palos y, asimismo, a la de la base del propio depósito, de modo que al retroceder este eje, se introduce en una ranura transversal extrema del depósito, arrastra los palos depositados ya en sus respec- tivos alojamientos de los medios de alimentación y los devuelve nuevamente al depósito.It has a side piston for the sticks, with a long and broken shaft, as well as its free end provided with a curvature suitable for the means for feeding the sticks and also for the base of the tank itself, so that when this axis is retracted, it is inserted into an extreme transverse groove of the tank, dragged the sticks already deposited in their respective housings of the feeding means and returns them back to the tank.
Complementan esta construcción una disposición interna al depósito de palos de un rodillo, bien directa- mente de perfil muesqueado o incorporado en una pieza con este acabado exterior, que gira respecto de un eje central, paralelo a la disposición del eje de los palos y con una multiplicidad de resaltes equidistantes, que toman los palos y los agitan ordenándolos de abajo hacia arriba.This construction is complemented by an internal arrangement to the drum stick of a roller, either directly with a notched profile or incorporated in a piece with this exterior finish, which rotates with respect to a central axis, parallel to the arrangement of the axis of the sticks and a multiplicity of equidistant highlights, which take the sticks and wave them by ordering them from the bottom up.
Caracteriza además otros medios, concretamente de desmontaje rápido de la zona de troquelado, en base a dividir en diferentes sectores el disco del troquelado facilita el cambio rápido y económico de formatos. Esta diferencia substancial en dimensiones facilita, a su vez, la utilización de aceros especiales de mayor dureza y menor desgaste.It also characterizes other means, specifically of rapid disassembly of the die-cutting area, based on dividing the die disk in different sectors facilitates the rapid and economical change of formats. This substantial difference in dimensions facilitates, in turn, the use of special steels of greater hardness and less wear.
Por último, el cabezal de troquelado dispone de un eje central al que acopla la transmisión, eliminándose piezas que puedan estorbar en la zona de troquelado, en base a incorporar un piñón extremo accionado por una cadena, que tiene la ventaja adicional de eliminar los riesgos sanitarios de los derrames accidentales de grasa en la zona del troquel, que llegan a afectar al producto.Finally, the die cutter head has a central axis to which the transmission is coupled, eliminating parts that may hinder the die cutting area, based on incorporating an end chain driven sprocket, which has the additional advantage of eliminating the risks of the accidental spills of grease in the area of the die, which come to affect the product.
