A generally horizontal straight transport surface of the dough is formed, and the raw material application units are arranged in at least a pair of front and rear facing the boundary between the first and second dough straight transport units, and the upper level of the installation machine casing is also installed. At the same time, different types of raw materials are introduced into the hoppers corresponding to the respective coating rollers, and the raw materials are passed from the coating rollers to form the plurality of raw material coating units via the scrapers. The apparatus is characterized in that the different raw materials to be scraped off are automatically applied to the surface of the fabric while it is being conveyed in the form of parallel band lines in plan view.

<Example> Hereinafter, the specific configuration of the present invention will be described in detail based on the illustrated example. Figures 1 to 5 show the entire coating machine, and A is the machine casing installed on the work floor. There is a base board 13 equipped with a flexible wheel 11 or a fixed leg seat 12, and a pair of upper and lower drive chamber cases 14, 15 fixedly installed in a stacked manner on the board.
, a pump chamber housing 16 and a control box 17 which are installed in parallel behind the two chamber housings 14 and 15. From the control box 17, the conduit 1
An operation panel 19 is protruded through the pump chamber 8, and the pump chamber housing 16 and the drive chamber housings 14 and 15 are partially in communication with each other.

Reference numerals 20 and 21 designate a pair of support shafts for the front and rear raw material application units, which are extended in sets of two from the upper drive chamber casing 14 in a horizontally horizontal manner parallel to each other;
Both of them pass through a pair of left and right support plates 22, 23 fixed to the wall surface of the upper drive chamber housing 14, and are stably supported by the support plates 22, 23. B and C are the supporting shafts 2 of each pair.
A pair of front and rear identical raw material applicator units D and E are respectively inserted and fixed in and out of 0 and 21, respectively, and on the upper surface thereof, a pair of front and rear raw material input units D and E, which are also identical to each other, are each removably fixed and installed. It is being done.

Each of the raw material application units B and C is the 6th and 7th one.
As is clear from the figure, there is a pair of left and right side frames 24, a pair of front and rear application rollers 25 and 26 that are suspended parallel to each other, and both rollers 24.
A scraper 27 for scraping off the raw material M squeezed out from between the parts 5 and 26 is assembled into an overall pre-unit body.

Then, the side frame 24 is attached to the support shafts 20, 21 for the raw material coating unit in the installation machine case A.
When the rollers 25 and 26 are inserted and fixed, the coupling ring 28 attached and integrated in advance to the shaft end of one of the rollers 25 and 26 connects to the transmission shaft 29 installed in the upper drive chamber casing 14.
It engages directly with the upper coupling ring 30 and receives rotational power.

The drive motor 3 of the application rollers 25 and 26
1 is a special type with a brake, and is fixedly supported in the lower drive chamber housing 15, and the sprocket on the output shaft and the sprocket on the transmission shaft 29 are each connected to a chain 32. It is transmission connected. Further, both rollers 25 and 26 are driven to rotate in opposite directions as shown by arrows P in FIG. 6 by meshing with a gear 33 fixed on their shafts, and the raw material M is squeezed out and dropped. I'm starting to let them do it.

In this case, in the illustrated example, one roller 25 has a large diameter and a spiral groove 34 is carved on its circumferential surface, and the other roller 26 has a straight cylindrical shape with a small diameter. Further, the gears 33 that mesh with each other are made the same. A roller 2 with a spiral groove 34 rotates at high speed based on changes in the diameter.
5 makes it possible to efficiently squeeze out highly viscous thiokolate, jam, butter cream, cheese, and other raw materials M. However, of course, both rollers 25 and 26 are designed to have a simple straight cylindrical shape with the same diameter. I can't help it. In addition, within the range that does not inhibit the meshing action of the gear 33,
It is also possible to adjust the mutual gap between the rollers 25 and 26 to be wide or narrow depending on the viscosity of the raw material M.

The scraper 27 has a general knife shape, and is used to scrape off the raw material M that is squeezed out while adhering to the surfaces of the application rollers 25 and 26, and transfer it to the dough K in a falling manner. , is detachably and replaceably attached to the frame 24 so as to cross horizontally between both side frames 24 so as to face directly below the roller 25 with the spiral groove 34. Moreover, that scraper 2
A slide guide elongated hole 35 is opened in the slide guide 7, and the amount of protrusion of the roller 25 toward the position directly below the roller 25 can be adjusted. 36
is the mounting bolt of the scraper 27.

In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 8~, several types of scrapers 27 are prepared in advance with various planar shapes of knife edges, and these can be replaced and inserted through the common long guide hole 35. It can be fixed to the side frame 24 using a mounting bolt 36 provided therein. By changing the use of the scraper 27, the application form of the raw material M to the fabric K can be varied in various patterns to provide a variety of interesting variations.

Next, each of the raw material input units D and E is
As shown in Figure 6, the funnel-shaped hopper 37
, a hot water jacket 38 dividedly arranged around the hopper 37, and a raw material stirring blade 39 also mounted on a shaft within the hopper 37, which are also formed into a pre-assembled overall unit body. Stud bolts are installed in advance from both frames 24 onto the side frames 24 of the raw material input units D and E through a pair of horizontal left and right mounting flanges 40 that integrally project from the wall of the hopper 37. 41 and a wing nut 42, it is fixed and fixed in a detachable manner.

Then, with the raw material input units D and E fixedly installed on the side frames 24 of the raw material coating units B and C, the coating units B and C
When inserted into the coating unit support shafts 20 and 21 as described above, the coupling 43 attached in advance to the shaft end of the stirring blade 39 is built into the upper drive chamber casing 14. The coupling 45 on the output shaft of the stirring blade drive motor 44 is automatically engaged in a direct connection state, and the stirring blade 3
9 is designed to be rotationally driven.
Reference numeral 46 denotes a shutter for opening and closing the bottom of the hopper 37, and although the details are not shown, its opening degree can be adjusted to be large or small depending on the viscosity of the raw material M.

The hot water jacket 38 melts the raw material M in the hopper 37 with the hot water and prevents it from solidifying. Then,
Both raw material input units D and E are circulated throughout, including each other. 48 is a water storage tank with a heater installed in the lower drive chamber case 15 for this purpose, and hot water heated by the heater is pumped to the water storage tank 4 by the pump 47.
8 to the hot water jackets 38 in the pair of front and rear raw material input units D and E.
49 is a flexible hose forming the circulation pipe, and 50 is a make-up water introduction pipe into the water storage tank 48.

Hopper 37 of both raw material input units D and E mentioned above
Different types of raw materials M are put into the container. That is, for example, chocolate is put into the hopper 37 on the front side, and buttercream is put into the hopper 37 on the back side. Then, each raw material coating unit B, C
The coating material is transferred from the application rollers 25 and 26 through the scraper 27 to the fabric K.

Therefore, the raw material input units D and E and the raw material application units B and C are formed as mutually removable units, which makes it easy to exchange raw materials M, clean each unit, and handle dissimilar raw materials. It can be said that it is extremely useful for preventing contamination with other substances.

Further, reference numerals 51 and 52 are the support shafts of a pair of first dough conveyance units, front and rear, which are extended in sets of two from the upper position of the lower drive chamber housing 15 in a mutually parallel horizontally horizontal state. , a pair of left and right support plates 53, 54 fixed to the lower drive chamber casing 15 in the same manner as the support shafts 20, 21 for the raw material application unit described above.
It is stably and fixedly supported. Reference numerals F and G designate a pair of identical front and rear first fabric straight conveyance units which are inserted into and fixed to the support shafts 51 and 52 so as to be freely removable, and which are located substantially directly below the raw material application units B and C, respectively. I'm here.

As shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the first dough straight conveyance units F and G have a pair of left and right side frames 55, a belt drive roller 56 that is axially mounted between them, and a shaft that is also mounted parallel to each other. A plurality of belt driven rollers 57 and all the rollers 5
An endless flat belt 58 wrapped around the belts 6 and 57 is assembled into an overall pre-unit body, and the fabric K is conveyed forward as shown by the arrow Y in FIGS. 19 and 20. It's summery.

When the side frame 55 is inserted into and fixed to the spindles 51 and 52 of the first dough straight conveyance unit, a coupling 59 attached and integrated in advance to the shaft end of the belt drive roller 56 is attached. However, the coupling 61 on the transmission shaft 60 supported by the lower drive chamber casing 15
By automatically engaging in a direct connection state, the flat belt 58 is made to run in circulation.

Reference numeral 62 denotes a pair of front and rear flat belt drive motors installed in the lower drive chamber housing 15, which correspond to a pair of front and rear flat belts of the first fabric straight conveyance units F and G, each of which has a separate transmission shaft 60. The upper sprocket and the sprocket on the output shaft of the motor 62 are transmission-connected by a chain 63. As the figure suggests, both flat belts 58 are adapted to be tensioned.

Further, 65 is a conveying unit F for straightly advancing both the first fabrics,
These are the spindles of the fabric turning conveyor units, which are located between the front and rear of G, and which are also mounted as a set of two from the upper part of the lower drive chamber housing 15 in a mutually parallel horizontally suspended state. Similar to the support shafts 51 and 52 of the first dough straight conveyance units F and G, they are fixedly installed through the lower drive chamber casing 15 thereof. A fabric turning conveyance unit H is inserted into and fixed to the support shaft 65 in a manner that it can be freely inserted and removed.

The dough turning conveyance unit H is 12th to 15th.
As extracted from the figure, there are also a pair of left and right side frames 66, a belt drive roller 67 that is shafted parallel to each other, a plurality of belt driven rollers 68, and a plurality of belts that are wound around all the rollers 67, 68. It is assembled in advance into a whole unit body from an endless thin round belt 69 of a book, and by means of the specialized round belt 69 and belt drive roller 67, the fabric K is
The device can be transported while changing direction to 45 degrees, 45 degrees, or any other fixed angle θ.

That is, the belt driving roller 67 has an overall truncated conical shape, and a plurality of independent tubular round belts 69 are wound around a plurality of belt receiving grooves 70 arranged in a row on the circumferential surface thereof. It is hung. Based on the difference in circumferential speed of the circumferential surface of the driving roller 67, the direction is changed so that the cloth K automatically turns horizontally by a certain angle θ. In order to allow the round belt 69 to rotate individually, the belt driven roller 68
It is assembled into an overall cylindrical shape from skewered ring-shaped roller pieces that rotate freely, and the round belt 69 is supported one by one by the roller pieces.

When the side frame 66 of the fabric turning conveyance unit H is inserted and fixed into the corresponding support shaft 65, the coupling 71 attached in advance to the shaft end of the belt drive roller 67 is A coupling ring 73 on the transmission shaft 72 that is separately supported on the lower drive chamber housing 15;
After all, they automatically engage in a direct connection state, and the round belt 69 is circulated through the transmission function. Reference numeral 74 is a drive motor for the round belt 69, which is installed approximately in the center of the lower drive chamber housing 15, and the sprocket on its output shaft and the sprocket on the transmission shaft 72 are mutually connected. A transmission connection is provided by a chain 75.

In order to clarify the arrangement relationship, FIGS. 2 and 3 show the first fabric straight conveyance units F and G, the fabric rotation conveyance unit H, and their corresponding spindles 5.
Although the belts 1, 52, 65, etc. are changed in height as if slightly unfolded, in reality, both flat belts 58 of the first fabric straight conveying units F and G form a pair of front and rear, and the fabric located between them. As shown in FIG. 1, the round belt 69 of the rotating conveyance unit H forms a uniform, horizontal straight conveyance surface for the fabric K as a whole. The fabrics K have come to move over each other without support.

However, between the adjacent first fabric straight conveyance unit F and fabric turning conveyance unit H on the front side,
In addition, a certain raw material falling gap S is opened between the first dough straight conveyance unit G and the dough turning conveyance unit H on the rear side, which are also adjacent to each other and face directly below the above-mentioned scraper 27. has been done. Reference numerals 76 and 77 designate receiving cases for the raw material M that falls from the coating rollers 25 and 26 and their scrapers 27 through the respective gaps S, and each pair of the front and rear of the raw material M is received by the frame pillars 78 and 79 on the base plate 13. Supported. Reference numeral 80 indicates a carrying handle for each of the cases 76 and 77.

Further, I is a second dough straight conveyance unit used interchangeably with the dough turning conveyance unit H, and this conveys the dough K sequentially as it is without changing its direction. As extracted from FIG. 18, the belt drive roller 81 is formed into an overall straight cylindrical shape, although it is provided with a groove 70 for receiving the round belt 69.

Since the rest of the structure is exactly the same as the fabric turning conveyor unit H, the common reference numerals are only shown and detailed explanation thereof will be omitted. When the belt drive roller 81 is inserted and fixed to the support shaft 65 of the H, the belt drive roller 81 is automatically rotated by the round belt drive motor 74. The round belt 69 of the second straight-advancing conveyor unit I may be replaced with the flat belt 58 of the first conveyor unit F, G.

Reference numerals 82 and 83 refer to the dough turning conveyance unit H or the second dough straight forward conveyance unit I, and the first cloth conveyance unit I on the rear side.
As shown in FIG. 19, a pair of sensors for detecting the position of the fabric are placed on the upper surface of the conveyance unit G for straightly advancing the fabric, as shown in FIG. As a result, the arrival position of the fabric K being conveyed in a straight line forward in the direction of the arrow Y is detected,
The electric signal based on the result starts the drive motor 31 with brake for the coating roller of the raw material coating units B and C described above until the dough K reaches the position directly below the scraper 27 (the falling position of the raw material). For a certain period of time, application roller 2
5 and 26 are rotated intermittently, so to speak.
The raw material M is applied onto the dough K as efficiently as possible. Of course, the certain period of time is set in advance by a timer not shown.

Also, due to the constant time, the distance L between the front sensor 82 and the scraper 27 in the front raw material coating unit B is longer than the distance L between the front sensor 82 and the scraper 27 in the front raw material application unit B.
It is also suggested from the figure that the scraper 27 and the scraper 27 in the rear raw material application unit C are defined to be substantially the same.
In addition, the drive motor 44 for the stirring blade and each drive motor 62, 74 for the flat belt and round belt.
Needless to say, these are models that do not come with brakes, so they are constantly rotating.

In any case, the raw material input units D and E and the raw material application units B and C are located at the upper level of the installation machine case A, while the first and second dough transport units F,
G, I and the dough turning conveyance unit H are similarly arranged at the middle height position of the machine casing A, and the pair of raw material coating units B and C, front and rear, are connected to the first dough straight conveyance unit F. , G and the dough turning conveyance unit H or the second dough straight forward conveyance unit I.
Raw material receiving cases 76 and 77 are installed at lower positions of the installation machine case A so as to correspond to the falling gaps S at the respective boundaries.

In addition, raw material input units D and E, raw material coating units B and C, first and second dough straight conveyance units F,
G, I and the fabric turning conveyor unit H are all assembled in advance into an overall unit body, and each support shaft 20, corresponding to the installation machine casing A,
21, 51, 52, 65, it can be inserted and used in a so-called cassette or cartridge type, and when it is inserted and installed in a fixed manner, the units B, C, D, E,
Installation machine casing A corresponds to F, G, and H.
Motors 31, 4 installed in advance in
4, 62, 74, the stirring blade 39, application rollers 25, 26, flat belt 58, round belt 6
9 etc. are designed to operate automatically, so cleaning and maintenance work can be carried out with high efficiency without the need to disassemble each unit in detail, especially when changing the type of raw material M. This is extremely convenient.

In the figure, the raw material application units B and C, the raw material input units D and E, and the first dough straight conveyance units F and G are each installed as a pair of front and rear units, but three or more of these units may be installed. However, it is also possible to interpose a second fabric straight-advancement conveyance unit I or a fabric turning conveyance unit H between the adjacent first fabric straight-advancement conveyance units F and G.

<Function> When applying the raw material M onto the surface of the fabric K using the above-mentioned coating machine, each hopper 3 in the pair of raw material input units D and E before and after the coating machine is applied.
7, the different kinds of raw materials M are put into the first
As shown in Figures 9 and 20, the fabric K is placed on the first fabric straight conveyance unit G on the rear side and is conveyed straight ahead in the direction of arrow Y at a constant speed.

Then, the sensor 83 on the rear side first detects a certain position of the dough K, and the coating rollers 25 and 26 in the raw material coating unit C on the rear side are started to rotate by the drive motor 31 with a brake. As soon as the dough K reaches the position directly below the scraper 27 facing one of the application rollers 25, the raw material M falls from the scraper 27 onto the surface of the dough K as shown in FIG. After the coating is completed, the drive motor 31 stops.

In other words, the fabric K determined by the sensors 82 and 83 is
A certain period of time from the detection position until the material K reaches the falling position of the raw material M is set in advance by a timer, and the driving motor 31 of the application rollers 25 and 26 is operated for only that certain period of time. In other words, it rotates intermittently.

In that case, it is assumed that the raw material M input into the hopper 37 in the raw material input unit E on the future side is a hopper, and the scraper 27 has a nut fudge protruding from the center as shown in FIG. 22 in a plan view. If it is approximately T-shaped,
As a result, Chiyocolate is first applied to the center of the fabric K in the form of a band with a corresponding constant width.

The dough K continues to move onto the dough turning conveyor unit H, and is rotated by a certain angle θ (approximately 90 degrees in the figure) by the round belt 69 wrapped around the truncated cone-shaped belt drive roller 67. The direction will be changed. Then, when the front sensor 82 detects that a certain position has been reached, the coating rollers 25 and 26 in the front raw material coating unit B are started to rotate by the drive motor 31 with a brake. As soon as the material K reaches the position directly below the scraper 27 facing the application roller 25,
From the scraper 27, the raw material M is applied to the surface of the dough K as a falling transfer state, and after this is completed, the drive motor 31 is also stopped.

In that case, it is assumed that the raw material M input into the hopper 37 in the front raw material input unit D is butter cream, and as shown in FIG.
If it is in the shape of a letter, it is related to the fact that the direction of the fabric K has been changed by approximately 90 degrees. The result is that the buttercream is also applied in a band-like manner, and in this way the fabrics K that are successively conveyed are automatically coated in large quantities.

The above example relates to the use of the fabric turning conveyance unit H that changes the direction of the fabric K. However, when the second fabric straight forward conveyance unit I is used instead of the fabric turning conveyance unit H, the fabric K can be The application action is virtually identical. However, the direction of the dough K is not changed to the rotating state, but it is transported straight as it is by the pair of front and rear raw material input units D and E and the second dough straight transport unit I interposed between them. The 24th different type of thiokolate and buttercream according to an example of the above raw material M is
As shown in the figure, as parallel strip lines that do not cross,
As a result, it is applied to the fabric K.

In any case, as mentioned above, the scraper 27
As for the 23rd and 25th, various plane forms with changing knife edges are prepared in advance, and these can be installed and used by replacing them.
As suggested by the figure, the form of applying the raw material to the dough K can be varied with various patterns, and as the raw material M, not only chiyocolate and butter cream, but also jam, cheese, and others can be widely used. , it will be possible to meet the demands of a wide variety of users.

In addition, although Figs. 22 to 25 illustrate various patterns to be applied to the surface of the fabric K using the raw material M as a topping material, using the raw material M as a filling material as shown in Fig. 26, half of the fabric K is coated. After application to the surface, it is also possible to cover the remaining halves in a so-called sandwich state. It is of course possible to stack different kinds of raw materials M and apply them to the dough K, and the dough K is not limited to a disk shape, but various shapes such as a square disk shape and a roll shape as shown in FIG. 27 can be adopted. I can do it.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, due to the structure of the coating machine of the present invention, one endless flat belt 58 is wrapped around the cylindrical belt drive roller 56 so as to be able to circulate around the first belt. Conveyance units F and G for straightly advancing the dough, and a conveyance unit for turning the dough in which a plurality of endless round belts 69 are wrapped around a truncated cone-shaped belt drive roller 67 so that they can circulate independently. H and a pair of application rollers 25 and 26 that rotate in opposite directions to squeeze out the high-viscosity raw material M are mounted parallel to each other, and a scraper 27 for scraping off the raw material is provided facing the lower surface of one of the application rollers 25. a hopper 37 which is fixedly fixed on the upper surface of the raw material coating units B and C and feeds the raw material M to the coating rollers 25 and 26; It is equipped with an installation machine casing A that incorporates the belt drive motors 62, 74 of the conveyance unit H and the drive motor 31 with a brake for the application rollers 25, 26, and is equipped with a plurality of at least one pair of front and rear conveyance units F and G for straightly advancing the first dough. Each piece is supported in a fixed state in the middle row position of the installation machine case A, and the fabric turning transport unit H is similarly fixedly inserted between the front and rear of the machine, and its straight transport units F and G are supported in a fixed state. The flat belt 58 of the rotating conveyor unit H and the round belt 69 of the rotating conveyor unit H form an overall horizontal linear conveyance surface for the fabric K, and the , so that the direction of the dough K can be changed by a certain angle θ, and the raw material application units B and C are arranged at least at the boundary between the straight conveyance units F and G and the turning conveyance unit H. A plurality of pairs of front and rear are fixedly supported at the upper height positions of the installation machine case A, and different types of raw materials M are placed into the hoppers 37 located corresponding to the respective application rollers 25 and 26. From coating rollers 25 and 26, which form the plurality of raw material coating units B and C, to a scraper 27.
Since the setting is such that the different types of raw materials M that are scraped off through the process are automatically applied to the surface of the fabric K while it is being transported, as cross-banded lines in a plan view, this type of raw material M scraped off by This has the effect of completely solving the problems of the prior art and making it possible to provide products that meet the diverse needs of consumers.

In addition, a second conveyor unit H for turning the dough is provided.
