Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a locking device for an upper mold in a cone cup manufacturing machine used for handles, containers, etc. of soft serve ice cream, ice cream, and other confectionery. An object of the present invention is to provide an upper die locking device that can automatically and accurately lock and release an upper die.

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 1 and the driven wheel 8, raw materials are put into the closed lower mold 1, the upper mold 2 is lowered and fitted, and then passed 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. 11 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. .

In addition, the upper mold 2 must be raised and separated from the lower mold 1 before the raw material is introduced into the lower mold 1, and the child valve must be fitted into the lower mold 1 after the raw material is introduced.

Further, the upper mold 2 fitted to the lower mold 1 must be kept in a fixed state so as not to separate from the lower mold 1, and this fixed state must be released when the upper mold 2 is raised.

As shown in FIG. 1, a lifting rail 12 is provided along the path of the baking table 3 to guide the upper mold 2 up and down.

A guide post 13 is erected on the baking mold table 3, and an upper mold holder 14 holding a large number of upper molds 2 is engaged with the guide post 13 via a connecting body 15, and is connected to the guide post 13. A lifting roller 16 connected to the body 15 is configured to slide on the upper surface of the lifting rail 12.

Therefore, the upper mold 2 is raised and lowered by the lifting rollers 16 rolling on the raising and lowering rails 12 forming a chevron shape corresponding to the required raising and lowering state of the upper mold 2.

11 is a locking device for the upper mold 2 provided at the front of the baking table 3;
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the fulcrum portion 18 is
An opening roller 20 and a locking roller 21 are provided at the upper end and the lower end of the operation ring 19, which is rotatably mounted on the operating ring 19, respectively, and a suppressing part 22 which can be freely engaged and detached from the lifting roller 16 is provided.

Reference numeral 23 denotes an opening abutting part, which is provided at the unlocked position of the upper mold 2 while the baking table 3 is moving forward, and comes into contact with the opening roller 20 to move the operating ring 19 in the opening direction, that is, The suppressing portion 22 is rotated in a direction away from the lifting roller 16.

Reference numeral 24 denotes a locking contact portion, which is provided at the locking position of the upper mold 2 while the baking mold table 3 is moving forward, and contacts the locking roller 21 to move the operating ring 19 in the locking direction, that is, to suppress it. The portion 22 is rotated in a direction in which it engages with the lifting roller 16.

25 is a locking device for the upper mold 2 provided at the rear of the baking table 3;
As shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 1, the fulcrum portion 2 provided approximately at the center shaft
6 is rotatably mounted on the upper die holder 14, and an opening roller 28 and a locking roller 2 are attached to the operating ring 21.
9 are respectively provided, and furthermore, a locking portion 31 that can be freely engaged and detached from a roller 30 that is connected and fixed to the lower mold 1 is provided.

Reference numeral 32 denotes an opening abutting part, which is provided at the unlocked position of the upper mold 2 while the baking table 3 is moving forward, and comes into contact with the opening roller 28 to move the operating can 2T in the opening direction, that is, The locking portion 31 is configured to be rotated in a direction away from the roller 30.

Reference numeral 33 denotes a locking abutting portion, which is provided at the locking position of the upper mold 2 while the baking table 3 is moving forward, and abuts against the locking roller 29 to move the operating ring 27 in the locking direction, that is, in the locking direction. The stop portion 31 is rotated in the direction in which it is locked to the roller 30.

Therefore, the operating ring 19 attached to the front of the baking table 3 rotates without moving up and down, but the operating ring 21 attached to the rear of the baking table 3 moves up and down together with the upper mold holder 14. And it will rotate.

The front operating ring 19 presses the lifting roller 16, and the rear operating ring 27 connects to the lower mold 1 and engages with the lower part of the fixed roller 30, whereby the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 1 are connected to each other.
This means that it is locked to prevent it from leaving.

In addition, both operating rings 19 and 2γ lock the upper die 2 at the same time,
It is also open.

The present invention has the above-described configuration, and therefore, the upper die 2 can be locked and released accurately and automatically.
