Description

Technology area

The proposed invention relates to the field of robotic food equipment with a high technical level, implying the implementation of autonomous, computer-controlled repetitive manufacturing operations that provide high-quality and fast cooking, in an autonomous mode, ready for direct use, usually hot food received by the user independently with the help of automatic means.

State of the art

A storage and distribution system for finished food products is known from the prior art (see CN 111317380, cl. A47J 44/00, publ. 2020 [1]).

The known system relates to the field of automated kitchen equipment, used mainly in a professional environment, to ensure the manufacturability of service when arranging food outlets in public places.

This high-tech kitchen system [1] contains a set of functional equipment, including a food distribution system, technologically combined with a system for storing and supplying formed food sets.

The work of the interacting equipment is handled by the central computer system, which generates the necessary control commands, and also monitors the progress of their implementation, in particular, controls the operation of the transport system, which is made in the form of an automatic manipulator with a gripper for holding and installing the bases of grocery products.

The food distribution system, according to the inventive concept, is made in the form of a similarity of a truncated cone with a central upper rotating disc provided with rounded hollow parts distributed along the edges for temporary storage of the necessary food sets, which are delivered to the user's viewing and grasping area upon request.

This system is practically unsuitable for separate autonomous use in the form of an independent structural unit, since its technical features and functional purpose are more focused on its joint use with a group of equipment of a similar purpose, or on its use as part of a more complex and larger object, for example, an automated one. a food complex that has a wide production or organizational potential, which in the production sense may be a certain advantage for the purpose of installing replacement equipment or replacing obsolete equipment with a newer and more technological one, but in this place there is a possibility of encountering difficulties associated with the specifics of integration and the complexity of the interaction of equipment including software made by various manufacturers.

As an additional disadvantage of the known system [1], one should point out the non-standard design with its inherent complex structured placement / arrangement of components, as well as a narrow-profile specialized purpose, which does not contribute to the creation of a stable unified production process, and actually casts doubt on the feasibility and necessity of mass production of this a sample of equipment.

A culinary robotic complex is known from the prior art (see KR 20190106893, class A23P 30/10, publ. 09/18/2019 [2]).

This robotic culinary complex is capable of processing existing food products and transforming them into a relatively solid and compact form, suitable for rational and reliable transportation.

The known robotic device [2] implies the presence of a food distribution system and an interacting system for transporting food suitable for processing.

In accordance with the inventive concept, it is possible to integrate the equipment of a known solution into adaptive kitchen systems, which makes it possible to structurally combine the existing profile functionality and ensure the interaction of elements, which will contribute to the optimization and efficiency of the production process.

The mentioned distribution system essentially consists of a robotic manipulator in the form of a semblance of human hands, which creates an imitation of manual labor due to the work of artificial intelligence systems, which makes it possible to effectively and almost accurately interact with the specified food raw material transportation system, made in the form of a complex of interconnected integrated equipment located on different levels, including auger systems, conveyors, distributors, metering devices and pneumatic tunnel conveyors.

A significant feature of the known technology is the use of a cooling chamber, the inner space of which contains a container for storage and preparation for transportation of the obtained food products.

The disadvantage of the known technology [2] should be considered unstable indicators of investment attractiveness for the manufacture and successful implementation of such products on an industrial scale, since the specified area of potential (possible) application is limited to the processing of food into a more transportable option while maintaining consumer characteristics, which in the logistical sense can to be justified, however, in economic terms, the high demand and profitability for this kind of narrow-profile services cannot be guaranteed.

An additional disadvantage can be recognized as the inability of this robotic complex to a full-fledged system analysis of the results of the operations performed, and, therefore, the impossibility of developing algorithms to prevent errors occurring during operation, since at present there is no scientific confirmation of information about the ability of artificial intelligence to self-learn and make independent decisions, inconsistent with built-in software functionality.

The closest analogue of the present invention is an automated kitchen system (see CN 109725559, class G05B 19/042, publ. 2019 [3]).

From a technical point of view, this system concerns the automation of the processes of cooking, transporting and storing food, as well as their optimal combination in one production complex.

The known automatic complex is controlled by a computer system and contains a food distribution system and a transport system interacting with it, while the distribution system includes means for distributing food contents, and the transport system contains a two-coordinate work table.

In accordance with the known technical concept, the food distribution system is subdivided into a food preparation subsystem, as well as into the first and second transmission systems, the transportation system is subdivided into two subsystems united in a single structural unit, in addition, there is a storage system for temporarily finding and maintaining the presentation of the products obtained. food products.

The known solution [3] is structurally focused on combining in one system all the main operations associated with the production of ready-to-eat food dishes.

To a greater extent, the system under consideration [3] is oriented and prepared for use in the factory, since it is structurally adapted for interaction with heavy loading equipment, has an industrial design, including appearance, and also has the capabilities and potential commensurate with the production of factory volumes, which in the aggregate determines its dependent position, which indicates the inexpediency of its direct use in catering points or in the form of a separate integral system, operated autonomously.

An additional negative factor of this system should be considered an extremely complex design implementation, associated with the use of voluminous non-standard systems interacting with each other using software and hardware equipment, as well as the presence of a significant number of specialized narrow-profile units, in particular, the configuration and operation of which will require constant monitoring and as a consequence of the obligatory performance of specialized technical work, which in a comprehensive manner requires the involvement of significant resources for the creation and maintenance of a similar technical level and scale of technological installations, the rationality of which can only be confirmed in a few years.

Disclosure of invention

The technical problem of the present invention is the creation of a universal kitchen machine for the preparation of culinary dishes, which has a controlled robotic functionality that allows you to achieve high productivity while maintaining the proper quality corresponding to the resulting food products.

The technical result of the proposed invention, which solves the above technical problem, is the implementation of the appointment to create a computer-controlled food culinary complex, the interconnected automatic equipment of which provides an increase in the speed of formation of food sets while maintaining the necessary prescription conditions, including high positional accuracy of applying ingredients and a given dosage of each food component separately.

An objectively manifested technical result is achieved as a result of the fact that a programmable culinary unit with intelligent controlled movement of food components contains a food distribution system and a transport system interacting with it, while the food distribution system is made in the form of a set of robotic dosing modules, portionwise replenishing with edible sets a given number of received grocery blanks, according to a certain service cycle, and the transportation system is made of at least two robotic functionally coordinated two-coordinate cargo tables, placed on profile supporting means, ensuring their mutual spatial movement along the required loading track, which is capable of being uniquely generated and controlled by an intelligent control device connected to the central service server of the system, in accordance with and with the accepted and pre-processed characteristics of the ordered food dish, the individual components of which, during the cooking process, due to the equipped transmission means, have the technical ability to transfer from an independently movable working platform of one two-coordinate cargo table to an independently movable working platform of another two-coordinate cargo table ...

According to one of the most preferred embodiments of the present invention, the profile support means are made in the form of two statically installed guides.

According to one of the possible embodiments of the present invention, said statically installed guides are structurally adapted to interact with roller mechanisms.

It is most preferred if the independently movable work platform of the two-axis weight tables is mounted on the base and has a lower part that moves in the longitudinal direction and an upper part that moves in the lateral direction.

According to one of the particular embodiments of the invention, the movable working platforms of the two-coordinate cargo tables can be mounted with the possibility of axial rotation.

Two-coordinate cargo tables, in accordance with a particular embodiment of the invention, can be equipped with digital means of product quality monitoring.

According to one of the most rational embodiments of the invention, these digital products for monitoring product quality are made in the form of photo and / or video cameras.

It is important and expedient if an intelligent control device, analyzing incoming images from product quality monitoring tools, generates programmed command signals in case of incomplete reference conformity of products, activating the necessary modes of equipment operation aimed at eliminating product defects.

Typically, the product pieces are made from dough, are preferably flat, and have a circular and / or oval and / or rectangular and / or square configuration.

In the best embodiment of the invention, the robotic dosing modules of the food distribution system are installed in series in a row and contain bulk, pasty, solid, semi-solid and liquid food additives and ingredients.

Also, in order to optimize space, the robotic dosing modules of the food distribution system can be installed in pairs in a row, more than two in a row, in a different grouping order, since the independently-movable working platform of two-coordinate cargo tables is installed on the base and has a lower part that moves in the longitudinal direction and an upper part that moves in the lateral direction.

According to the most preferred culinary concept, the food additives and ingredients generally comprise meat and / or sausages and / or ham and / or fish and / or cheese and / or vegetables and / or fruits and / or berries and / or herbs, and / or sauce and / or spices and / or butter and / or syrup and / or cereals and / or dough.

The transmission means used in the invention are, as a rule, equipped at work sites and made in the form of automatic electric drive systems, the horizontally movable feeders of which are activated under the condition that the two-coordinate tables touch each other.

The transmission means used in the invention can be part of the food distribution system and, accordingly, be made in the form of an automatic electric drive system, the vertically movable stopper of which is activated when the product blank passes in the area of its action on a two-coordinate cargo table and, fixing itself on the edge of its working platform, remains stationary before the transfer of the product to the adjacent two-coordinate loading table due to the joint movement of both.

The working platform of two-coordinate cargo tables can be installed with the possibility of rotation around the axis.

The transport system can be equipped with a checkweigher.

According to the developed inventive concept, a modern technologically advanced system for the production of ready-to-use instant food products is proposed. The technological innovation, according to the author, lies in a unique technology using automatic equipment that combines a robotic distribution system and a robotic transportation system. At the same time, the operation of such equipment is controlled by an intelligent device (computer system), which has in its arsenal modern corresponding software that controls the progress of work, and also allows you to make user settings in advance and program the system to work according to an individual scheme necessary to obtain a specific dish with its own individual characteristics. according to the taste preferences of the customer.

The basic features of the proposed culinary installation, which make a tangible contribution to the state of the art, is the combination of a well-functioning food distribution system and a transport system, while the food distribution system is made in the form of a set of robotic dosing modules, and the transport system is made in the form of a subsystem consisting of at least than two-axis work tables or more, the coordinated movement of which is determined and coordinated by an intelligent control device.

Particular attention, from the point of view of the inventive concept, should be given to the mentioned subsystem of two-coordinate cargo tables, which is located on profile supporting means, which ensures the mutual spatial movement of the cargo tables along an individually selectable loading track, which is controlled and coordinated by an intelligent control device.

In functional terms, two-coordinate cargo tables have the ability to transfer dish components from the working platform of one table to the working platform of another table due to the equipped transmission means.

From a technical point of view, the use in a culinary installation controlled by an intelligent device, a combined system consisting of two interconnected subsystems responsible for the distribution of food ingredients, the positioning of food preparations, as well as for movement along the laid down unique production path, makes it possible to obtain a programmable culinary system that works according to a laid down or correction cycle, the features of which, consisting in the controlled distribution of food ingredients on food bases, the development of a loading path, including the possible controlled movement of food components from one two-coordinate loading table to another two-coordinate working table, provide an increase in the rate of formation of the final dishes and, at the same time, keep the recipe values as they should be, and thanks to the high controlled positional accuracy of the application of ingredients and the correct doses When processing food components, the correct quantitative and qualitative content of the ingredients is preserved, which actually forms the basis of the food product and determines its final appearance.

It is important to emphasize that in engineering terms, the transition of food components from one two-coordinate loading table to another is due to the fact that there is no need for one loading table to carry the same product preparation to the final route, since this can be done by the second loading table, and at the time of transfer the first table can already receive a command from an intelligent device to pick up another food preparation for the formation of the next ordered food dish, which in a complex way increases the productivity of the production process, providing an increase in the speed of work, while maintaining the production quality at the proper high level inherent in technological robotic equipment.

Thus, the above proposed constructive implementation of the claimed programmable culinary installation with intelligent controlled movement of food components, taking into account its characteristics and technical features, forms a set of features sufficient to achieve a given technical result, which consists in realizing the purpose of creating a food culinary complex controlled by a computer system, the interconnected automatic equipment of which provides an increase in the speed of formation of food sets while maintaining the necessary recipe requirements, including high positional accuracy of applying ingredients and the required dosage of each food component separately, as well as to solve the existing technical problem of designing a universal kitchen machine for preparing culinary dishes with controllable robotic functionality that allows you to achieve high performance while maintaining the th quality corresponding to the received food products.

So, the proposed culinary installation with intelligent controlled movement of food components contains a temporary storage and dispensing system 4, which contains pre-prepared food preparations 11, ready for further processing, a food distribution system 5 with an interacting transport system 3, an oven installation 10, a packaging subsystem 14, as well as a subsystem for storage and delivery of finished and packaged product 15.

The food distribution system 5 is made in the form of a set of robotic dosing modules 7, which are designed for portionwise replenishment with edible sets of a predetermined number of received food products 11, according to a certain service cycle.

The transport system 3 is made of two robotic functionally coordinated two-coordinate cargo tables 16 and 17.

These two-coordinate weight tables 16 and 17 are placed on supporting means, such as statically mounted profile guides 21 or independent roller mechanisms 22.

The specified profile supporting means provide mutual spatial movement of the first two-coordinate worktable 16 and the second two-coordinate worktable 17 along the required loading path, which is determined and controlled by the intelligent control device 1 in accordance with the received and processed in advance the characteristics of the ordered food dish.

The intelligent control device 1 is connected to the central service server of the system 2.

The individual components of the prepared dishes, including 11 grocery items, in the process of direct cooking (replenishment with ingredients) due to the equipped transmission means, which can be the first 19 or the second 27 automatic electric drive systems, have the technical ability to move from an independent movable working platform 26 one to two -coordinate working table to an independent movable working platform 26 of another two-coordinate working table.

The independently movable work platforms 26 of each of the two-axis weight tables 16 and 17 moving along the formed path are generally mounted on the base and have a lower part that moves in the longitudinal direction and an upper part that moves in the lateral direction.

The previously equipped transmission means, as an option, can be installed on the working platforms 26 and are made in the form of automatic electric drive systems 27, the horizontally movable feeders 24 of which are activated under the condition that the two-coordinate tables 16 and 17 come into contact with each other.

Also, as an option, the transmission means can be part of the food distribution system 5 and be made in the form of an automatic electric drive system 19, the vertically movable stopper 20 of which is activated when the product blank 11 passes in the area of its action on a two-coordinate cargo table and, fixing on the edge of it of the movable working platform 26, remains stationary until the transfer of the product blank 11 to the adjacent two-coordinate load table due to the joint movement of both.

The transport system 3 is equipped with a product quality monitoring tool 6, and an intelligent control device 1, analyzing the incoming images from the product quality monitoring tools, generates, in the event of incomplete reference compliance of the prepared products, programmed command signals that activate the necessary equipment operation modes aimed at eliminating product defects.

A programmable cooking unit with intelligent controlled movement of food components operates as follows.

It should be noted that the purpose of the following description of the invention is not to limit it to a specific implementation, but rather to cover all kinds of additions that do not go beyond the scope of the presented claims.

The production process is controlled by an intelligent device 1, which is connected to a central service server 2, connected to the Internet.

The intelligent control device 1 and the central servicing server 2 have the ability to use software, with the help of which the transmission of information about incoming orders and the operation of the equipment of the proposed culinary installation is ensured.

It is possible to order a specific culinary product, for example, pizza, pancakes, sandwiches, as well as to select its content and indicate the features of preparation, using a software application on any electronic device or directly at a culinary installation that provides such an opportunity. The intelligent control device 1 receives the corresponding signal, processes it and then forms a certain operating mode of the equipment, in particular, it determines the loading path of the transport system 3, namely, it synchronizes the operation of the two-coordinate loading tables 16 and 17, selects the optimal speed of their movement, records the time movements and stops, and also determines other production parameters and determines the operating modes of the food distribution system 5, determines the dosage of components, synchronizes the operation of dosage modules 7, checks the presence of certain food components in them, and also determines other necessary production parameters required for the preparation of specific food dishes.

It is important to note that in the database of the central serving server 2, all possible programs for the preparation of various culinary products are pre-installed, including the modes of operation of the transport system 3 and the modes of operation of the food distribution system 5.

In the proposed cooking installation, as a rule, frozen dough pieces 11 are used, which are mainly flat and have a round, oval or rectangular shape.

After the central service server 2 receives information about the order of a certain product, the intelligent control device 1, through the software algorithm, generates a command to the temporary storage and issuance system 4 to feed the product blank 11 to the first two-coordinate loading table 16, which is mechanically carried out by means of an actuator in the form of an electric drive equipped with a piston with a pusher and a gripper.

Once on the movable working platform 26 of the first two-coordinate cargo table 16, the product blank 11 moves towards the opposite end of the transport guides section 21. During the movement, the first two-coordinate cargo table 16 passes under the required set of dosing modules 7, making stops, pauses, associated with the replenishment of the food preparation 11 with the necessary set of food components, if necessary, the working platform 26 is moved to two sides opposite to the transport paths, thereby selecting precise and clear places for loading food components, which is possible due to the independence of the movement of the working platform 26. After all the necessary ingredients from the dosing modules 7 will go to the product blank 11, the first two-coordinate loading table 16 moves into the area of the product transfer means 8, which moves the blank 11 to the furnace installation 10.

In the event that the first two-coordinate weight table 16 has not yet finished its movement, and the collection of ingredients for the workpiece 11 is still in progress, the service server 2 receives information about the need to fulfill the next order, the intelligent control device 1 through the software algorithm generates a command to the system temporary storage and dispensing 4 for feeding the product blank 11 to the second two-coordinate cargo table 17, which starts moving towards the opposite end of the section of transport guides 21 and towards the first two-coordinate cargo table 16.

After the first two-coordinate weight table 1 6 finishes its work, and the workpiece 11 is moved by means of transferring products 8 to the oven installation 10, the first two-coordinate weight table 16 will move close to the second two-coordinate weight table 17.

Further, if necessary for production, the product blank 11 is transferred from the working surface 26 of the two-coordinate loading table 17 to the working platform 26 of the adjacent two-coordinate loading table 16. This is carried out using transmission means, which are part of the food distribution system 5 and are made in the form of an automatic electric drive system 19, the vertically movable stopper 20 of which is activated when the product blank 11 passes in the area of its action, which is on the two-coordinate cargo table 17 and, fixing itself on the edge of its movable working platform 26, remains stationary until the product is transferred to the adjacent two-coordinate load table 16 due to the joint movement of both. Once on the working platform 26 of the two-coordinate desktop 16, the food blank 11 continues its movement along the loading track, replenishing, if necessary, with food ingredients, according to the recipe, and then, according to the approved cooking plan, the food blank is transferred to the oven 10 for baking, which is produced by means transfer of products 8. Or, in the absence of the baking stage in accordance with the order, the product blank is transferred again to the two-coordinate loading table 17 in reverse order using the already used automatic electric drive system 19, after which the finished product blank 11 is transferred to the packaging subsystem 14 by means of transferring products 18 to the package, from which the packaged product goes directly to the subsystem 15 for storing and dispensing the finished and packaged product.

It is important to note that the means for transferring products 8 is made in the form of a pusher piston with a gripping device, which, holding the product blank 11, transfers it to the belt transport device 9 of the oven unit 10. The means for transferring products 18 to the package is also made in the form of a pusher piston with a gripping device that transfers the products directly to the packaging subsystem 14, bypassing the baking stage in the oven installation 10.

It should be mentioned that the transfer of the product blank 11 from the working platform 26 of one two-coordinate loading table to the working platform 26 of another two-coordinate loading table is possible by means of another transmission means, namely: automatic electric drive systems 27, horizontally movable feeders 24 of which are activated under the condition contact of two-coordinate weight tables with each other, while the feeders 24 have gripping stops 25 and move due to the action of the pushers 23.

The intelligent control device 1 is also pre-entered with the data-coordinates of the zone of action of each dosage module 7, as a result of which the intelligent control device 1, controlling the movement of both two-coordinate weight tables 16 and 17, delivers the workpiece 11 to a strictly established place for applying the food ingredient.

The use of two two-coordinate loading tables 16 and 17 or more in the used transport system 3 allows to comprehensively overcome the difficulties associated with the use of one loading table and the simultaneous receipt of several orders, in this case, the execution of the second order is possible only after one applied table the previous first order is assembled, and in fact only then he can proceed to the assembly of the second order, then the third, and so on. However, if there are two or more two-coordinate cargo tables, then two or three orders can be executed simultaneously, which increases the productivity of the culinary installation at least twice.

The use of the two options described above for transferring food components with blanks 11 from one two-coordinate table to another also makes it possible to speed up the cooking process, since in this case, after one load table has finished collecting its order, and for example, the order is transferred for baking to furnace installation 10, another cargo table is not idle, but drives up to the adjacent cargo table, on which the second order is assembled, takes this order for itself and further assembles the order further. In this case, the efficiency of the use of each two-coordinate loading table sharply increases, since the first table does not stand idle and does useful work almost all the time, and the other two-coordinate loading table at this time returns to the extreme section of the loading track and is ready to receive the next order ...

So, the prepared orders, according to the recipe and the established cooking parameters, enter the packaging subsystem 14 either from the furnace installation 10 or directly from the transport system 3. Moreover, the products coming from the furnace installation 10 are transferred to the packaging subsystem 14 by means of the product transfer element 12, which is made in in the form of an automatic pusher piston with a gripper that holds and guides the products, and the products entering the packaging subsystem 14 directly from the transport system 3 are transferred through the product transfer means 18.

Next, the packaged product comes from the packaging subsystem 14 to the subsystem 15 for storing and dispensing the finished and packaged product.

The storage subsystem 15 has equipment for the temporary storage and distribution of finished orders, which are supplied to the issuing window as needed, according to the command coming from the intelligent control device 1 in accordance with the previously placed order.

After preparing the order, the intelligent control device 1 sends a signal to the central service server 2, which sends the client a notification to his mobile device, or in another way, including notifying the operator that the order is ready and is subject to transfer to a specific customer.

If the order was placed remotely via the Internet, the received notification contains a secret code that allows you to identify this customer, for which the customer approaches storage subsystem 15, enters this code on the touch screen, or brings a mobile device to the system reader and displays the QR code received from central serving server 2.

The program installed on the intelligent control device 1 identifies the given customer and activates the order pick-up cell to which the product was received, so that the customer has a direct opportunity to receive the order he has chosen.

It should be noted that at least one two-coordinate cargo table 16 or 17 may contain a product quality monitoring device 6 in the form of a photo / video camera.

During the movement of the two-coordinate cargo tables 16 and 17, the product quality monitoring tool 6 transmits to the intelligent control device 1 information about the appearance of the product piece 11 before and after the food ingredients are applied, and the absence of foreign objects on the product piece 11 is also monitored.

If the software of the intelligent control device 1 detects a low assessment of the quality and shortcomings of the analyzed product blank 11, for example, uneven application of the ingredient, then the intelligent control device 1, having determined this fact, will be able to command the system of two-coordinate weight tables 16 and 17 and change the state of the product blanks 11, i.e. to create the necessary operating modes for the equipment of the food distribution system 5 and the transport system 3, aimed at eliminating product shortcomings.

In case of technical impossibility of correcting the product blank 11, the intelligent control device 1 transmits control signals to the executive elements 13 of the removal of low-quality products.

The specified actuating elements 13 for the removal of low-quality products are located within the transfer end sections of the transport system 3 and are made in the form of separate installed modules equipped with a pusher-piston with an emphasis, which withdraw low-quality products, transferring them to the utilization subsystems.

In the presented embodiment, the main production equipment of the proposed programmable culinary installation is functionally combined for a clear overview and closed with a transparent protective showcase.

For safety reasons, the proposed programmable cooking system may be delimited on all sides by an enclosure containing a service opening.

The culinary installation can be made in the form of a stationary vending machine, a system installed on a vehicle or containing wheels for movement, or the proposed installation can be installed in the premises as a stationary commercial facility.

The proposed invention can be widely used in the food service sector, as a safe and technological system for fast food.
