Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a lower mold opening/closing device in a cone cup manufacturing machine used for handles, containers, etc. of soft serve ice cream, ice cream, and other confectionery. The object of the present invention is to provide a lower mold opening/closing device that can automatically and accurately open and close a lower mold.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The structure of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings showing one embodiment.

This corn cup manufacturing machine connects a large number of baking mold tables 3, each of which has a lower mold 1 and an upper mold 2 with a chive crack structure and can be opened and closed, to a chain belt 4, and connects the chain belt 4 to By being driven by a motor 6, the baking table 3 is rotated between a drive wheel 7 and a driven wheel 8.

While the baking table 3 rotates once between the drive wheel 7 and the driven wheel 8, the raw material is put into the closed lower mold 1, and after the upper mold 2 is lowered and fitted, it passes through the baking pot. The lower mold 1 is opened to remove the plurality of connected cup bodies 9 from the baking mold stand 3 as shown in FIG. 9a is cut to obtain a cone cup body 9 having the required shape as shown in FIG.

Therefore, the lower mold 1 must be opened in a chive-shaped manner to release the fired cup body 9, and must be closed in the form of a container to accommodate the raw material before it is introduced. No.

4 shows the lower mold 1 in a closed state, and FIG. 5 shows the lower mold 1 in an open state.

Reference numeral 11 denotes an operating ring, which is rotatably mounted on the baking mold table 3 with a fulcrum part 12 provided approximately at the center shaft, and has an opening roller 13 at the upper end and a closing roller 14 at the lower end, and further includes: One end of a pull arm 15 is rotatably supported in front of the fulcrum 12, and one end of a push arm 16 is rotatably supported behind the fulcrum 12.

The other end of the pull arm 15 is rotatably connected to one attachment part 17 provided at the end of the lower die 1, and the other end of the push arm 16 is also connected to the other attachment part 17 provided at the end of the lower die 1. Mounting part 1
The mounting portion 17.1 is rotatably connected to the mounting portion 17.1.
8 is guided by a guide rod 19 to move back and forth so as to open and close the lower mold 1.

Reference numeral 20 denotes an opening contact part, which is provided at the opening operation position of the lower mold 1 while the baking table 3 is moving forward, and comes into contact with the opening roller 13 to rotate the operating ring 11 in the opening direction. I'm doing it like that.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a closing abutting portion, which is provided at a closing operation position of the lower mold 1 while the baking table 3 is moving forward, and comes into contact with the closing roller 14 to rotate the operating can 11 in the closing direction. I'm doing it like that.

Next, the opening/closing operation state of the lower mold 1 will be explained.

First, as shown in FIG. 4, the lower mold 1 is in the closed state, and when the raw material in the baking mold table 3 is fired and the baking mold table 3 comes to the position for taking out the baked product, the opening contact part 20 and release roller 13
contact, and as the baking table 3 moves forward, the release roller 13 moves rearward.

At this time, the operating ring 11 rotates around the fulcrum portion 12 in accordance with the movement of the release roller 13.

As the operating ring 11 rotates, the pull arm 15 pulls one side of the lower die 1 via the attachment part 17, and the push arm 16 presses the other side of the lower die via the attachment part 18. The lower mold 1 is opened as shown in FIG.

When the lower mold 1 is in the open state, the opening roller 13 slides on the lower surface of the guide rail 22 to maintain the open state of the lower mold 1, as shown in FIG.

As mentioned above, the lower mold 1 moves forward in an open state, and just before the raw materials are introduced, the closing contact part 21 and the closing roller 14 come into contact with each other as shown in FIG. The closing roller 14 moves rearward.

At this time, the operating ring 11 rotates about the fulcrum part 12 in accordance with the movement of the closing roller 14.

With this rotation of the operating ring 11, the pull arm 15 presses one of the lower molds 11 through the mounting part 17, and the push arm 16 presses one of the lower molds 11 through the mounting part 18 in the closing direction. is closed as shown in FIG.

When the lower mold 1 is in the closed state, the closing roller 14 is in the fourth
As shown in the figure, the lower mold 1 is kept in a closed state by sliding on the upper surface of the guide rail 23.

The upper mold 2 is placed on the lifting rail 24 while the baking mold table 3 is moving forward.
By moving up and down while being guided by the lower mold 1, the lower mold 1 is fitted into or separated from the lower mold 1.

Figure 4 shows the upper mold 2 descending and fitting into the lower mold 1, maintaining the fitted state fixed by the locking member 25, and Figure 5 showing the locking member 25 coming off and the upper mold 2 rising. The lower die 1 is maintained in a state separated from the lower die 1.

Furthermore, an adjustment member 26 is attached to the intermediate portion of the push arm 16, which has reverse threads on both sides to connect the members on both sides.

By rotating this adjustment member 26, the push arm 16
It is designed to expand and contract to adjust the opening and closing states.

This invention has the above-described configuration, and therefore, the opening and closing operations of the lower mold 1 can be performed automatically and accurately as the baking mold table 3 moves forward.
