Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform the wrapping and cutting of dough and solid in a completely contacting state by coaxially forming an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder and a central cylinder and vertically oscillating the central cylinder synchronous to the charge of a solid material, thereby preventing the entrainment of air during the embedding of the solid material into a dough. CONSTITUTION:An outer cylinder 5, an inner cylinder 6 and a central cylinder 7 are coaxially arranged. The lower end 8 of the outer cylinder is placed at the lowest position and the lower end 9 of the inner cylinder is positioned above the end 8. The central cylinder 7 is made to be movable in vertical direction to enable the variation of the gap C between the lower end 10 of the central cylinder and the lower end 9 of the inner cylinder. The stuffing material 1 is charged to the space between the inner cylinder 6 and the central cylinder 7 and the outer skin material 3 is supplied to the space between the outer cylinder 5 and the inner cylinder 6. The central cylinder 7 is lowered to form a pocket P by the outer circumference of the central cylinder 7 at the inner-side of the outlet port of the stuffing material 1 and a solid material is charged into the pocket from above. When the central cylinder 7 is lifted, the stuffing material 1 is introduced through the circumference of the solid material 11 to embed the solid material 11 into the stuffing material and to wrap the stuffing material 1 with the outer skin material 3 to form a coaxial rod-like dough. The rod is cut with a cutting apparatus 12.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Application Field) The present invention is a method of supplying solid substances such as chestnuts, other fruits, or boiled eggs to the inside of a steamed bun or other cooked food, and wrapping the solid substance. Relates to the production of cooked foods, etc.

(Prior art) In the prior art, as shown in Japanese Patent Application No. 34124 of 1986, in order to produce a product containing solid matter inside, a hollow part of a hollow double-structured rod-shaped dough formed by a composite nozzle is used. Some try to insert a vibrator and drop it through the pipe to deliver the solid material and cut it.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) Conventionally, when trying to cut a solid object by supplying it inside a hollow rod-shaped dough, the air trapped in the hollow part remains ungassed and becomes wrapped. As a result, the weight may be uneven, the size may be different, and air may exist between the solid material and the dough, so the dough and the solid material may not be in perfect contact with each other. Even when cutting was performed, the fabric could not completely wrap the solid material, resulting in the solid material being exposed.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and since air is not trapped in the dough containing solids, it is possible to reduce the weight disturbance. The occurrence of variations in the pieces and sizes is reduced, and the dough and solids are in perfect contact with each other, which prevents the solids from moving inside the dough or causing the skin to break and expose the solids when cutting. There is no such thing.

The structure of the present invention includes an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder, a center cylinder formed inside the inner cylinder in a circular shape, the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder having a material supply port on the side wall, and the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder having a material supply port on the side wall. The gap between the two cylinders is the passage for the outer skin material, the gap between the inner cylinder and the center cylinder is the passage for the inner packaging material, and the center cylinder is the passage for solids. The lower end level of the center cylinder was set above the outer cylinder and moved up and down in synchronization with the timing of introducing solids, and when the center cylinder was lowered, solids were introduced into the pocket formed inside the inner packaging material. Thereafter, the central cylinder is raised and the inner packaging material is sent in so as to cover the solid object, thereby embedding the solid object in the inner packaging material.

(Example) The present invention will be described based on an example. The inner packaging material l is provided to be supplied between the inner cylinder 6 and the center cylinder 7 from the material supply port 2 by a material supply device (not shown). .

Further, the outer skin material 3 is supplied between the outer cylinder 5 and the inner cylinder 6 through the material supply port 4.

These outer cylinder 5, inner cylinder 6, and center cylinder 7 are arranged in a circle, with the lower end 8 of the outer cylinder at the lowest level and the lower end 9 of the inner cylinder inside.
has been established.

The center cylinder 7 is located at the center of the inner cylinder 6, and the lower end 10 of the center cylinder is movable up and down, so that the gap C between the center cylinder 7 and the lower end of the inner cylinder can be changed.

In this way, the outer cylinder lower end 8, the inner cylinder lower end 9, the center cylinder lower end lO
The material is discharged from the annular gap, and the outer skin material 3 is inserted into the inner packaging material 1.
A stick-shaped dough is formed to cover the anniversary.

The cutting device 12 cuts the rod-shaped dough into a predetermined size.

Next, the solid material supply section will be described. The center cylinder 7 is inserted from above the inner cylinder 6 through the axis of the inner cylinder 6 toward the lower end 8 of the outer cylinder.

A push-out mechanism is provided above the center cylinder 7, which is composed of an air cylinder 14, a rod 15, and a button 16 attached to the tip of the rod 15. When the air cylinder 14 operates, the rod 15 moves in and out, and the button 16 moves into the center. It moves up and down inside the tube 7.

A base 17 is attached to the frame 13, and the center tube 7 is fitted into a hole provided in the base.

A rotary plate 18 is rotatably fitted into the base 17.

The rotary plate 18 is provided with holes 19 at predetermined intervals.
The center tube 7 and each of the holes 19 are made to coincide with each other by the rotation.

Further, cams 2 are provided on the upper surface of the rotating plate 18 in accordance with the number of holes.
0 is fixed.

An air cylinder 21 is provided in the center of the base 17, and rods 22 of the air cylinder 21 are arranged to protrude alternately from both ends of the cylinder 21 toward the cam 20.

Rollers 23 and 23' are attached to both ends of the rod 22, and each time the rod 22 protrudes left and right alternately, the roller 23 comes into contact with the cam 20, and the rotary plate 12 rotates by l pitches, thereby opening one hole after another. 19 matches the center cylinder 13.

When the air cylinder 21 is operated after a solid object 11 such as a chestnut is placed in the hole 19 manually or by a placing device (not shown), the solid object 11 is moved inside the center cylinder 7 every time the rotary plate 18 rotates one pitch. will be put into the

At this time, the one-pitch rotation of the rotary plate 18 and the one-time operation of the air cylinder 14.21 are performed synchronously, and the cutting device 1
This is performed in synchronization with one cycle (-times of cutting) of 2.

The operational flow of the embodiment of the present invention is shown below.

Timer receives signal from cutting device ↓ The timer sends an activation signal to the air cylinder 21↓ Air cylinder 21 is fully activated.

↓ Air cylinder 21 stops.

↓ The air cylinder 14 operates downward.

↓ The I7 cylinder 14 moves upward.

↓ The outer diameter of the end center cylinder 7 fits into the inner diameter of the center cylinder guide 25, so that it can be slid up and down.

A flange 24 is attached to the upper part of the center cylinder 7.

A cam follower 26 attached to an arm 27 is in contact with the flange 24, and the center cylinder 7 moves up and down as the arm moves up and down.

This vertical movement can change the gap C between the center cylinder 7 and the inner cylinder 6 by moving the center cylinder lower end 10 up and down.

Next, to explain the function and effect of the present invention, the inner packaging material 1 is fed from the material supply port through the inside of the inner cylinder 6, but at that time, the central cylinder 7 is lowered as shown in FIG. A pocket P can be formed by the outer periphery of the central cylinder 7 inside the outlet of the inner packaging material.

Solids are dropped from above and placed in the pocket.

Next, as shown in FIG. 3, by raising the center cylinder 7, the inner packaging material 1 is fed from around the solid object, and the solid material is embedded within the inner packaging material.

The effect of lowering the center cylinder 7 to form a pocket is that the position at which the inner packaging material is inserted becomes more accurate.

When pushing the rod into the inner wrapping material by relying only on the vertical movement of the conventional rod, it is forced into the inner wrapping material, so the elastic repulsion of the inner wrapping material makes it impossible to fully embed the rod. The position may be misaligned, or air may be trapped when solid objects are pushed in, but in the present invention, such air entrapment does not occur.

(Effects of the invention) As explained above, the present invention prevents air from being trapped when embedding solid objects in dough, so when it is wrapped and cut, there will be no irregularities in weight or size variations. In addition, the fabric and the solids are in perfect contact with each other, so there is no possibility that the solids will move inside the fabric or that the skin will tear and the solids will be exposed when cutting.
