The aim of the invention is a device whose application saves working time and forces and avoids monotonous work. The object of the invention is to automatically remove two-part molds filled with mold from the cycle of the manufacturing plant, open it, mold it, close it again and bring it into the circulation of the manufacturing plant. After an accelerator for the molds, a microswitch of the inserter is actuated. The insertion device is arranged downstream of a driver chain. For unlocking the form vertically opposing lifting punch are provided. To hold open the form are frontally insertable spacer rails and on the upper half of the form is an engaging in the fuel openings push rod frame attached. Below is a provided with Fuehrungsbacken, lowered down against an abutment and arranged to rotate 2 x 180 degrees forming mechanism. FIG. 1

Title of the invention

Automatic Ausf ölvorrichtung for two-part forms

-Ause of the invention

The invention relates to an automatic molding device for two-part molds for the production of confectionery, in particular of empty and filled chocolate moldings, v. Ie, for example, three-pounders, kegs, vials, cones, nuts, and hoogate eggs.

Characteristic of the known technical solution

1.0 So far, the molding of zY * partial molds has been done manually. The halves of the mold were pressed apart from each other at the marginally incorporated recesses with both hands, shaped, closed bodice and then returned to the circulation of the manufacturing plant. This technology was very labor intensive, meant a monotonous work and prevented an increase in production. Automatic molding devices for two-part molds are not known.

Object of the invention

The aim of the invention is to provide a device su, by the application of working time and thus manpower can be saved, the monotonous work is avoided and the cycle times are reduced.

Explanation of the essence of the invention

The invention has for its object to provide a device that automatically takes two-part molds filled with moldings from the circuit of the Eerstallungsanlage, unlocks, ausformt, closes and returns the empty forms in the circulation of the manufacturing plant.

According to the invention, this is done by the fact that after a pairwise accelerator for two-part molds by a switch operated by iviikr switch attached. The insertion device is arranged downstream of a drive chain for the .ausformstelle. In the area of the driving chain vertically counteracting lifting rams are provided for unlocking the mold. In order to keep open the shape, frontally insertable spacer rails are mounted, and above the upper half of the mold there is a push frame engaging in the filling openings. The following is a provided with guide jaws. downwardly against an abutment lowerable and arranged to 2. χ 180 rotating forming mechanism. This is followed by one, the closed mold v / reuffeende the feeding, Ausschiebevorrichtung.

According to the invention, the two-part filled molds are given a higher feed rate by a paired iron accelerator. In doing so, they actuate the microswitch of a slide-in device, which pushes the molds under an endlessly engaged cam plate, the tangent of which corresponds to the width of the molds. First, both halves of the mold are pressed apart by vertical counter-rotating lifting pistons, which engage at the recesses which are offset at the edge of the mold. At the same time, spacer rails are inserted on the front side to keep the mold open when the stroke is falling. Still in the same operation push the plunger of the ram frame through the filling openings of the upper mold half which adheres to the opening in the upper mold half moldings in the lower mold half. At the next

The bottom half of the mold passes into the downwardly-inclined forming mechanism equipped with guide jaws, while the mold is turned 180 ° and the mechanism abuts against an abutment During the upward stroke, the mold is again rotated by 180.degree .. With the next working cycle, the contraction of the rear chain and the omission of the spacer rails reunite the two halves of the mold and return them to the circuit of the production plant by means of a pushing-out device.

The invention will be explained below using an exemplary embodiment. In the accompanying drawings show:

Figure 1 - side view of the Ausformvorrichtung Figure 2 - top view of the Ausformvorrichtung.

According to FIGS. 1 and 2, the two-part filled molds 1 coming from the cooling path receive an increased speed of movement by a paired accelerator 2. They press the microswitch 3 of a push-in device 4, which pushes the molds 1 under a downstream, endless ge Takte te carrier chain 5 and thus positioned. The driver distance corresponds to the width of the molds. During the first working stroke, both mold halves are pressed apart by approximately 10 mm by vertical counter-rotating cam-controlled lifting rams 7, which engage at the recesses incorporated at the edge of the mold. At the same time end rails 6 are introduced, which avoid the merging of the mold halves on the decrease of the lifting ram 7, Soch in the same working cycle push the plunger of the arranged above the upper mold half plunger frame 8 the still adhering in the upper mold half moldings in the lower mold half.

At the second working cycle, both halves of the open halves of the forehearth continue, with the upper half of the mold resting on the spacer rails 6. When lowering, the mold half is rotated by 1SO, the mold half is emptied and the mechanism abuts against an abutment 11, whereby the still possibly adhering moldings are ejected. By means of an e-one continuous conveyor, the molded bodies are fed to the filling and packaging machines. When the mechanism is moved upwards, the mold half is rotated 180 ° again and thus the lower mold half returns to its original position. The 3rd working cycle accounts for the distance rails 6 and both Fornienhälf th are again joined together by magnets or connectors. A Ausschiebevorrichtung 10 leads the closed mold 1 to the circuit of the manufacturing plant again. , Application possibilities for the molding methods according to the invention are all products molded and solidified in two-part molds which have to be shaped, in particular chocolate products. The advantage is that the shaping takes place automatically and according to the working rhythm of the production plant »
