DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a device for continuously weighing and extruding food cooking materials such as bean jam, cream, minced meat and plastic materials and compounding them.

(Prior Art and Problems) As a conventional composite molding machine, as shown in Japanese Patent No. 637489, each of a screw mechanism and a feeding device provided with a measuring device and a separately provided screw mechanism There is a device in which a plurality of materials are put into the device and fed out to form a composite rod to form a continuous rod. However, this known technique requires a complicated mechanism and requires operability for its operation. .

(Means and Objectives for Solving Problems) The present invention provides a device that is simpler than this conventional device and that combines a plurality of food materials to be weighed and delivered into a continuous rod body and forms the same. That is the purpose.

According to the configuration of the present invention, an inlet of a measuring device is provided at a discharge port of a screw mechanism provided in each of a plurality of food material hoppers, and each measuring device has a flat plate inserted in a slit formed on a generatrix of a cylindrical body, By rotating the cylindrical body that controls the entrance and exit by the cam, continuous metering and feeding is performed,
A compound nozzle for forming a plurality of extruded materials into a concentric continuous rod body is provided at the material outlet of each of the weighing devices, and a plurality of materials that are weighed and extruded can be continuously compounded. In order to make it possible to adjust the relationship between the amount of material supplied into the inlet of the measuring device by screw rotation and the amount of material extrusion by rotation of the cylindrical body, the amount of rotation of both of them according to the characteristics of the material used. By controlling the material pressure at the inlet of the metering device to adjust the material density by adjusting the relationship between the two, the metering effect is enhanced, and multiple materials are compounded to form a concentric continuous rod-shaped body. The continuous rod is covered and cut by the method.

(Example) The present invention will be described below based on an example. A screw 4 for transferring the material 1 is provided in a cylinder 3 of a hopper 2 into which a food cooking material 1 (hereinafter referred to as material) is charged.

The rotation speed of the screw 4 can be freely changed by changing the rotation speed of the motor 5 by adjusting the dial of the control panel 20.

The inlet 7 of the housing 6 of the weighing device is mounted near the material discharge port of the cylinder 3.

A cylindrical body 8 is inserted into the housing 6, and the cylindrical body 8 is a drive shaft.
Rotate by 10.

The cylindrical body 8 has a slit 11 formed on a generatrix in which a flat plate 12 which can freely move in and out in the outer peripheral direction is inserted.

Since the flat plate 12 interferes with the cam 13 provided on the inner circumference of the housing 6, when the cylindrical body 8 rotates, the flat plate 12 is led by the cam 13 and the surface of the cylindrical body 8 is regulated by a certain amount. To and from.

The cylindrical body 8 is rotated at a constant speed in the direction of arrow a by a motor 15.

The flat plate 12 has a position A immediately after passing through the inlet 7 of the weighing device,
Assuming that the position of the flat plate 12 which is located just before the start of the discharge port 19 of the measuring device in the forward direction is B, a space between A and B is a closed chamber surrounded by the housing 6 on the left, right, upper and lower sides, and the measuring chamber 16
Will be configured.

When the flat plate 12 moves in the housing 6 by the rotation of the cylindrical body 8, the flat plate 12 passes through the measuring chamber 16 so that the material 1 is extruded from the discharge port at a constant flow rate.

The discharge port 19 is provided with a composite nozzle 23.

The composite nozzle 23 has a plurality of material inlets in the shape of a pipe 24, each of which is fitted into the discharge port 19.

The plurality of pipes 24 form a concentric composite portion 25 in the downstream portion thereof.

A material cutting device 100 is provided below the composite section 25.

The structure of this material cutting device will be described based on an embodiment. Reference numeral 101 is a rectangular piece having a thickness t, and 102 and 103 are sliding surfaces on adjacent sides of the rectangular piece 101. The sliding surface 102 contacts the cloth 1 and cuts it.

Further, the sliding surface 102 and the sliding surface 103 are in contact with each other at a point 104. That is, the contact points are at least less than the thickness t.

Therefore, the sliding surface 102 has a sharp tip.

Reference numeral 105 designates a frame in which a plurality of rectangular pieces 101 in FIG. 6 are formed by bringing adjacent sliding surfaces 102 and 103 into contact with each other.

Reference numeral 106 denotes an enclosure formed in the center by the framework 105.

Numeral 107 is a continuous rod-shaped dough that is supplied so as to penetrate through the box 106, and 108 is an inner packaging material that is concentrically enclosed in the center of the dough 1.

The arrow S shown in FIG. 7 indicates the movement direction of the rectangular piece 101, and when it moves in this direction, the enclosure 106 becomes small, and eventually the contact points 104 gather at one point as shown in FIG. Box 106 is completely gone.

When the rectangular piece 101 is moved in the direction opposite to the direction of the arrow S, the enclosure 106 is generated and the rod-shaped dough 1 is supplied. In this embodiment, the dough 1 supplied in a continuous rod state is cut by repeating the movement S, and at this time, the dough 1 is provided in a continuous state with the inner packaging material 108 at the center. Produces an effect of cutting the inner packaging material 108 without exposing it.

The reason for the occurrence of this special effect is that the sliding surface 102 of the rectangular piece 101 shows a bus bar contact of the length t to the side surface of the cloth 107 due to the movement S as shown in FIG. 107 causes a depression, and eventually the cut state of the cloth 107 is produced as shown in FIG.

During this time, the contact surface of the sliding surface 102 with the cloth 107 is the cloth 107.
As it goes deeper toward the center of t, it becomes smaller in the order of t → t ′ → t ″, so that the inner packaging material 108 flows in the vertical direction, and the dough 7 can be cut without exposing the inner packaging material 108.

Reference numeral 21 is a pressure sensor provided on the inner wall of the inlet 7 of the housing 6, and detects the pressure of the material pushed out by the screw 4.

The pressure sensor 21 transmits pressure information to the control panel 20 to change the rotation of the screw 4 so that the pressure near the inlet 7 is always kept constant.

If the characteristics of the material 1 are known in advance and the relationship between the screw rotation speed and the discharge amount is known, the selected rotation speed can be directly input to the control panel 20 without using the pressure sensor 21. As a result, it is possible to prevent excessive deterioration of the quality by applying excessive pressure to the material 1, and to prevent the stable metering from being impossible due to unstable screw extrusion.

Other control means include an input device for inputting pressure data detected by the sensor 21 to the control panel 20, a storage device for storing a pressure reference value, a comparison device for comparing the reference value with the input data, and a comparison device. It is controlled by a device including an actuating device for receiving a signal from the device and operating the motor 5 at a predetermined rotational speed.

According to this control circuit, the motor 5 is rotated in advance at the rotation speed of the feed amount larger than the pushing amount of the housing, and the pressure data detected by the sensor 21 and the pressure reference value are compared with each other over time to obtain the pressure data. When the pressure rises and exceeds the reference value, the actuator gives a signal to the motor 5 to stop the rotation of the motor to stop the motor rotation, and when it falls below the reference value, it gives a signal to return the motor rotation to keep the pressure close to the reference value. The motor can be rotated.

Further, a proportional control means for controlling the rotation speed of the motor 5 by continuously comparing the pressure data detected with time and a reference value and giving a value calculated so as to follow the reference value successively. According to the above, more accurate control can be performed.

By adjusting the relationship between the amount of rotation of the screw and the cylindrical body according to the characteristics of the material used in this way and adjusting the degree of clogging of the material in the housing 6, the density is always kept constant, and a composite nozzle is used. After forming a concentric continuous rod, a cutting device can be used to form a product in which the inner wrapping material is covered by the outer cover.

(Effect of the Invention) As described above, the present invention provides the inlet of the measuring device at the discharge port of the screw mechanism, and the measuring device inserts the flat plate into the slit bored on the generatrix of the cylindrical body, and uses the cam to move the flat plate It is assumed that the cylindrical body that controls the entrance and exit is rotated to perform continuous metering and feeding, and the relationship between the rotational speeds of the rotating shaft of these screws and the rotating shaft of the measuring device is changed so that the material at the inlet of the measuring device is With the pressure kept constant, continuous and stable metering and extrusion can be performed, and the formed double-structured continuous rod can be covered and cut into a quality-protected product by a cutting device.
