Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a bamboo ring manufacturing method and an apparatus therefor.
Traditionally, chikuwa is made by wrapping the raw material for fish meat paste around a skewer in the circumferential direction, so it is extremely difficult to form the cross section into two or more colors or into a cross-sectional shape other than circular due to the process. Therefore, the current situation is that it is limited to a single raw material of the same color, and its cross-sectional shape is circular and extremely monotonous.

In view of these current circumstances, the present invention allows for the easy use of a plurality of colors or raw materials, and also allows the cross-sectional shape to be arbitrarily formed to produce a bamboo ring with a color and texture not found in conventional bamboo rings. The first invention relates to a method and an apparatus, and the gist of the first invention is to transfer the skewer in its axial direction while discharging the raw material from around the skewer while rotating it in the direction in which the skewer advances, so that it is attached and molded around the skewer. In addition, the second invention provides a transfer device for transferring the skewer in the axial direction at the lower part of the skewer storage hopper, and has a skewer passing tube in the center at the front part thereof, and a rotating raw material molding device. The gist is that a mouthpiece is installed, and a pair of opening/closing shutters are provided at the front end of the molding mouthpiece to allow the skewer to pass through at all times.

To explain the details of the present invention, the skewer A accommodated in the skewer accommodating hopper 1 is connected to the skewer feeding piston 2.
The skewer is continuously transferred one by one in the axial direction by a transfer device 3 consisting of skewer feed rollers 2', 2', and a rotating molding mouthpiece 5 having a skewer passing cylinder 4 in the center at its front part. A raw material molding device 6 is provided, and in particular, the cross section of the rotating molding die 5 can be formed into any shape such as circular or square, and can be divided into arbitrary sections in the radial direction or the like.

For example, one example of the molding device 6 will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. A plurality of partition disks 8, 8'', 8'', 8 are provided in a cylindrical chamber 7 whose front end is open, and the cylindrical chamber 7 is divided into a plurality of partitions. 9, 9', 9'', and the center portions of each section disc 8, 8', 8'', 8 are integrally connected by a skewer passage tube 4, and the skewer rod passage tube 4
is formed so that each compartment disc 8, 8', 8'', 8 can be rotated simultaneously via a sprocket 10 fixed to its base end, and each compartment disc 9, 9', 9'' are connected via pipes 11, 11', 11'' to a raw material supply device each having a pump.

In addition, the section disc 8' and the frontmost section disc 8
A suitable number of transfer pipes 12, 12... are installed through the space between the partition chamber 9 and the annular cap 13 formed at the front of the partition disc 8'', and connect the partition disc 8'' and the partition disc 8''. A pair of arc-shaped caps 14, 14, 14'14' are provided on the disc 8, facing each other in the left and right directions and up and down, and projecting forward to form an annular shape. , 14, 14', and 14' constitute a molding die 5.

On the other hand, a pair of left and right opening/closing shutters 15, 15 are provided in an overlapping state at the front end of the cylindrical chamber 7, and each of the opening/closing shutters 15, 15 has a raw material passage hole 17 formed with a skewer insertion recess 16 on one side thereof. established,
When the opening/closing shutters 15, 15 are opened, the raw material passage holes 17, 17 are polymerized, allowing the raw material to be discharged from the molding mouthpiece 5 and passed through the skewer rod A, and when closed, the raw material passage holes 17, 17 are closed due to discrepancies with each other. At the same time, the skewer insertion recesses 16 and 16 are connected to each other, so that only the skewer A can be transported at all times.

Therefore, the transfer device sequentially transfers the skewers A one by one from the skewer storage hopper 1 to the skewer insertion tube 4, and at the same time, each raw material supply device stores different colored fish meat raw materials or fish meat raw materials and other different kinds of raw materials. Then, when the skewer passage hole 4 is rotated while feeding this with each pump, the raw material a in the compartment chamber 9 passes through the transfer pipes 12, 12, and is transferred from the annular mouthpiece 13 around the skewer A while rotating. The raw materials b and c in the compartments 9' and 9'' are discharged while rotating around the raw material a through arc-shaped nozzles 14, 14, 14' and 14', as shown in FIG. Chikuwa raw material B with a cross section is attached to skewer A and molded.

However, in this case, the pair of opening/closing shutters 15, 15 are closed when both ends of the skewer A pass through the front end of the cylindrical chamber 7 so that the raw material does not adhere to both ends of the skewer A. It is configured to operate in synchronization with the transfer device 3 so that the bamboo wheel raw material B is deposited and molded only on the central portion of the skewer A.

The bamboo wheel raw materials a, b, and c that have been molded onto the skewer A in this way are supported and transferred by a conveying device 19 having a skewer support piece 18, and are then subjected to a sitting process, a steaming process, etc. in a conventional manner. It is roasted and made into bamboo rings.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the molding nozzle 5 is made to have the outer wall surface of the outermost layer protrude forward from the front end of its inner wall surface, the molding materials discharged from each nozzle will adhere to each other and these molding materials will not be able to stick to the skewer. It is suitable because it can promote adhesion, and the outer shape and cross section of the bamboo ring can be changed by arbitrarily changing the cross section and division of the molding nozzle.An example of this is shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B. As for the rods, it is possible to use not only stainless steel rods that are removed after roasting as in the past, but also bamboo rods that do not require removal after roasting. In the figure, 20 is a sprocket drive chain, 21 is a skewer passing tube rotating motor, 22 is a shutter holding plate, 23 is a shutter drive device, 2
4 is a connecting rod for the section discs 8, 8'.

The present invention transfers the skewer in the axial direction and discharges the raw material from the periphery of the skewer while rotating it in the direction in which the skewer moves, and molds the material around the skewer, so it is not limited to a circular cross section as in the past, but can be formed into any cross section. In addition to being able to manufacture chikuwa in various shapes, by dividing the molding die into sections and discharging different colors or different types of raw materials, the cross section of the chikuwa can be molded with multiple colors or different types of raw materials. It is possible to manufacture a certain bamboo ring and improve the commercial value of the bamboo ring.

In addition, since the present invention discharges and molds the raw material while rotating it through the skewer, it is possible to produce chikuwa with a richly colored surface coloring pattern, and since the raw material is discharged in a spiral shape against the skewer, it can be smoothly and reliably applied to the skewer. It has excellent features not seen in conventional chikuwa, such as being able to attach to.
