Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention aims to provide a method for filling viscous frozen desserts having a novel configuration.

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

The method of the present invention is configured as follows. That is, in a method of automatically filling an I cup with viscous frozen dessert by rotating the nozzle 2 and moving the nozzle or cup 3 up and down, the separation speed and injection pressure between the nozzle and the cup are changed, and the nozzle or cup is moved up and down. Furthermore, when moving up and down, the rotating diameter of the nozzle is increased or decreased so that the nozzles are helically stacked. Therefore, the apparatus 1 that specifically implements the above method will be specifically explained.

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, the front and rear frames 4A and 4B are provided with a shaft 7 that is raised and lowered by an elevating cam 6, and a nozzle support plate 8 is hung on the shaft 7 via a nozzle support plate receiver 10. The nozzles 2 corresponding to the cups 3 in parallel are installed in parallel, and the valve 2B of this nozzle 2 is attached to the attached valve opening/closing cylinder 2.
It is configured so that it can be opened and closed at will. On the other hand, spindles 9 are provided in the front and rear frames 4A, 4B in parallel with the shaft 7.
is rotatably planted, and this spindle 9
The upper end 9A and the lower end 9B are configured to coincide with the rotational axis 9D of the spindle 9, and the portion other than the upper end 9A and the lower end 9B forms an eccentric portion 9C which is curved in an eccentric state. and,
This spindle has a left and right pair, but the eccentric portions 9C are curved in the same direction. This spindle 9 is connected to a circular hole 8A formed in the support plate 8.
and when filling the ice cream, the cam 9E, limit switch 9F, speed controller 9
G, a continuously variable speed motor 9H, a bevel gearbox 9I, and a chain wheel 9J. The receiver 10 of the nozzle support plate is
The support plate 8 is configured to be held between the balls 10A from above and below. Therefore, a specific method of filling will be explained below.

Cups 3 to be filled immediately below the filling nozzle 2 are sequentially fed out in a known manner and then stopped. Nozzle 2 reaches point _s1 along cam 6. That is, the nozzle 2 is located at the container point t ₁ '. At that point, the valve opening/closing cylinder 2A is actuated by a separately placed signal, and the valve 2B on the nozzle is opened, and the viscous frozen dessert is ejected from the nozzle 2. The nozzle 2 moves from point _s1 to point _s2 by the movement of the cam, and at point _s3 , the cylinder 2A is activated again by a separately placed signal, and the valve 2B on the nozzle is closed, stopping the emission of the viscous frozen confection. However, since the tip of nozzle 2 is narrowed, even when valve 2B is closed,
Since pressure remains in nozzle 2, the cam _s3 ' point
The cam is stopped at the same position until point s ₃ ′, and when the pressure is released, the cam is moved from point s ₃ ′ to point s ₄ to separate the viscous frozen dessert from the cup. The height of the product from point t ₀ to point t ₄ and the operation of the cam have been described above, but next we will explain the relationship between the rotation of the nozzle and the spindle. of the product
From point t ₁ to point t ₂ , fill up to cup 3, from point t ₂ to point t ₃ , fill in a spiral shape, and from point t ₄ to point t ₄ , fill it up in a thin layer. Also, the cam points s ₁ to s ₂ match the product's t ₁ to t ₂ points, and the s ₂ to s ₃ points match the product's t ₂
The point matches the t ₃ point, and the s ₃ point to the S ₄ point matches the product's t ₃ point to the t ₄ point. Further, the height of the spindle 9C from point ^p0 to point _p4 coincides with ^t0 of the product. The part where the product is made into a spiral is from t ₂ to t ₃ , and the corresponding spindle is from p _{2 to} p ₃ ;
In order to make it more spiral, it is necessary to apply drive from the _p1 point of the spindle 9 to move it to the _p2 point. That is, the spindle 9 operates the limit switch 9F through the cam 9E, rotates the continuously variable speed motor 9H according to the speed (rotational speed) control value of the speed controller 9G, and rotates the spindle 9 via the bevel gearbox 9I. Even if rotation is applied to this spindle 9, the spindle does not rotate and does not rotate from p ₁ to p ₁ and from p ₃ to p ₄ because it is the same as _the spindle center axis.
p The eccentric diameter between _{the three} points with respect to the spindle core is the same as the product diameter. In other words, from t ₁ to t ₂ of the product, the nozzle 2 rises vertically and fills the cup 3 with the viscous frozen dessert, and from t ₂ to t ₃ , the rotation diameter is changed by the eccentric movement of the spindle 9, p ₁ ' or P ₃ . The viscous frozen desserts are piled up in a spiral, and the product becomes conical in shape and becomes smaller in diameter from t ₂ to t ₃ as it ascends to the top. In other words, it matches the movement of the diameter of spindle p ₁ to p ₄ , the position of t ₄ in the product is t ₄ in the top cross-sectional view, and the height of p ₄ in the spindle is the position of nozzle 2 at p ₄ in the spindle cross-sectional view.
is located. Further, the shape of the product can be changed by changing the shape of the tip of the nozzle 2.

Traditionally, when filling viscous frozen desserts, the method of filling the cone in a spiral manner was to rotate the cone manually and fill it, and only a highly skilled person could produce a well-shaped cone. However,
In the filling method used in continuous freezers, it has been impossible to spiral or stack the containers because the weight of the filling section is heavy or the plates that feed the containers are fixed.

On the other hand, the present invention solves these problems and uses a simple structure to move the nozzle up and down while rotating the nozzle at an arbitrary diameter to stack viscous frozen desserts in a spiral shape. It is a useful product that can make the finished product look like a hand-rolled product and increase the value of the product. In the figure, 2C is a valve opening/closing lever, 2
