Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention provides a roller brush that can ooze liquid little by little from between a large number of brush bristles, and a release mold for rice cracker dough using this roller brush. The present invention relates to a method and a rolling machine for cutting out rice cracker dough shapes.

[Conventional technology]

A conventional rice cracker dough rolling machine, as shown in FIG. 5, rolls the rice cracker material into a flat plate shape with a rolling roll 13 onto a belt 10 for transporting the rice cracker material, as shown in FIG. A rice cracker dough punching roll 11 having a cutting die 12 made by punching rice cracker dough from rice cracker material is provided, and the punching roll 11 is pressed against the flowing rice cracker material by its own weight. And this die cut roll 1 for rice cracker ingredients
1 rotates, so that the rice cracker material can be cut out into a shape corresponding to the shape of the cutting die 12 and rice cracker dough can be continuously made.

In the figure, 14 is the rice cracker material transfer belt 1.
With a guide roll for folding the belt provided at the end of the front delivery surface 15 of the belt, the molded rice cracker dough on the front delivery surface 15 of the belt is peeled off and separated and placed on the inclined surface in front of the belt. It is something to send out. Reference numeral 16 denotes a scrap material return belt that continuously sends the scraps of the rice cracker material after being cut out backwards by an upper guide roll 17, and the returned scrap materials are returned to the rolling rolls 13 again to form the rice cracker materials. is played as.

In such a rolling machine, the rice cracker material is made by steaming and kneading rice and has a very strong adhesive force, so if the above-mentioned die-cutting roll 11 is simply used, the dough will stick to the roll 11 after die-cutting. It gets wrapped around me.

Therefore, conventionally, a roller brush is rotatably mounted above the die-cutting roll 11 so as to be in contact with the die-cutting die 12 of the roll, and oil, edible wax, water, etc. is manually applied to this roller brush as a mold release agent. By doing this, the dough was prevented from adhering to the cutting die after being cut out.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The reason why oil, etc. is applied to the cutting die in this manner is not applied directly by hand, but is applied using a roller brush coated with oil, etc. in advance, in order to apply the oil, etc., thinly and uniformly to the cutting die.

In other words, if you try to apply oil or the like directly to the cutting die manually, there may be parts where the oil does not adhere, or
This is because excessive adhesion may occur in some areas, resulting in uneven coating.

If the cutting mold is coated with too much oil, for example, the seasoning may not stick well during the process of adding soy sauce or other seasonings, which is done after baking the rice cracker dough cut into the mold, or the seasoning may mix with the oil. There is a problem with the loss of taste. In addition, if the cutting die is coated with too much water, water will enter the rice cracker dough, which is undesirable for the subsequent drying process, and furthermore, the dough will shrink or wrinkle in that area after drying. There is also.

Furthermore, it is necessary and sufficient to apply oil or the like only to the upper end of the cutting die; if it is applied to the entire cutting die, it will be overcoated.

For these reasons, it is virtually impossible to manually apply the coating directly to the cutting die, so at present indirect coating is performed using a roller brush.

However, even with indirect application using a roller brush like this, it is not enough to apply oil etc. uniformly to the cutting die, and furthermore, the time interval for manually applying oil etc. to the roller brush is usually about once every 5 minutes. This had become a major bottleneck in labor saving.

[Means to solve the problem]

In view of this, as a result of various studies, the present invention has developed a roller brush that solves the above problems, a mold release method using the roller brush, and a rolling machine for punching rice cracker dough.

That is, one of the roller brushes of the present invention is a roller brush in which a large number of bristles are implanted on the outer periphery of a cylindrical roller. The feature is that by supplying a liquid, the liquid oozes out from between the bristles of each brush.

Another roller brush of the present invention is a roller brush in which a large number of bristles are implanted on the outer periphery of a cylindrical roller. The feature is that a rod-like body is loosely inserted in the axial direction and liquid is supplied to the inner diameter hole so that the liquid oozes out from between the respective brush bristles. In either case, it is effective to communicate the inner diameter hole of the roller with the inner diameter hole of the roller brush, in which a large number of brush bristles are implanted in each of the numerous bristle holes provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical roller, through extremely small holes. .

One of the methods for releasing the rice cracker dough cutting mold of the present invention is to implant a large number of brush bristles on the outer periphery of a cylindrical roller, and to communicate the inner diameter hole of the roller with the outside through a large number of very small holes. By supplying water or oil to the inner diameter hole, the water or oil oozes out from between the bristles of each brush.The tips of these brush bristles of a roller brush are used to cut out the rice cracker dough from the rice cracker material that has been rolled into a flat plate. Continuously applying water or oil to the upper end of the cutting die by rotating a roller brush by contacting the upper end of the rice cracker dough cutting roll having the cutting die on the outer periphery and rotating the roll. It is characterized by:

Another method of releasing a rice cracker dough mold according to the present invention is to implant a large number of brush bristles on the outer periphery of a cylindrical roller, communicate a large number of microscopic holes between the inner diameter hole of the roller and the outside, and furthermore, By loosely inserting a rod-shaped body in the axial direction of the inner diameter hole and supplying water or oil to this inner diameter hole, the tip of these brush bristles of a roller brush is made into a flat plate. A rice cracker dough cutting roll having a cutting die on its outer periphery for producing rice cracker dough from the rice cracker material rolled into a shape is brought into contact with the upper end of the cutting die and the roll is rotated to rotate the roller brush, and the upper end of the cutting die is rotated. It is characterized by continuously applying water or oil to the surface. In either mold release method, a large number of brush bristles are implanted in each of the numerous bristle holes provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical roller, and the bristle holes and the inner diameter hole of the roller are communicated with each other through a very small hole. It is highly effective to use a roller brush with a rod inserted loosely in the axial direction of the hole.

Furthermore, the rice cracker dough rolling machine of the present invention is provided with a rice cracker dough punching roll having a cutting die for forming rice cracker dough from the rice cracker material on its outer periphery in the middle of the belt for transferring the rice cracker material rolled into a flat plate shape, and further A large number of brush bristles are implanted on the outer circumference of a cylindrical roller, the inner diameter hole of this roller is communicated with the outside through a very small hole, water or oil is supplied to the inner diameter hole, and this water or oil is removed from between each brush bristle. A roller brush that exudes the rice cracker dough is installed above the rice cracker dough punching roll at a position where the brush bristles of the roller brush come into contact with the upper end of the punching die of the rice cracker dough punching roll. The feature is that the roller brush is rotated by rotation. In this case, it is effective to use a roller brush in which a large number of brush bristles are implanted in each of the numerous bristle holes provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical roller, and the bristle holes are communicated with the inner diameter holes of the roller through extremely small holes. be.

[Effect]

The reason why the inner diameter hole of the cylindrical roller and the outside are communicated with the outside through a large number of very small holes is that when liquid is supplied to the inner diameter hole, the liquid is sent out little by little from these very small holes to the outer circumferential surface. With this configuration, this liquid can be oozed out from between the many densely packed brush bristles formed on the outer periphery of the roller using capillary action, and as a result, the entire roller brush is It has the feature that it is possible to uniformly apply liquid to each of the numerous bristles of the brush.

In addition, if the cylindrical roller is thick, a large number of tufted holes with closed tips are provided on its outer circumferential surface, and a roller brush is formed with a large number of bristles implanted in these holes, and these tufted holes and the inner diameter of the roller By communicating with the holes through extremely small holes, the above effects can be made even more excellent.

The diameter of this extremely small hole may be appropriately selected depending on the viscosity of the liquid, etc., but it is preferably about 1.0 mm for water and about 1.2 mm for oil.

Further, in the above-mentioned structure having only the very small holes, the internal liquid may flow out too much through the very small holes which are directed downward as the brush rotates. Therefore, in such cases, by loosely inserting a rod-shaped body such as stainless steel with a specific gravity larger than the liquid to be supplied in the axial direction of the inner diameter hole of the cylindrical roller, this rod-shaped body is always located at the lower part of the inner diameter hole. Therefore, when this roller brush rotates and the opening to the inner diameter hole of a certain extremely small hole is located at the lowest position, the rod-shaped body temporarily blocks this opening, so that the downward facing extremely small hole is located at the lowest position. It has the effect of temporarily stopping the flow of liquid from the pipe and preventing the liquid from flowing too much.

According to such a roller brush, a small amount of liquid is uniformly attached to all the brush bristles, so that the upper end of the cutting die of the rice cracker dough cutting roll used in the above-mentioned rice cracker dough rolling machine is used. By applying the tip of the brush bristles of this roller brush to the top of the mold, the rice cracker dough can be smoothly removed from the cutting mold, and in an ideal state that does not affect the quality of the dough, a mold-releasing tool is applied to the upper end of the mold. It becomes possible to apply oil or water.

〔Example〕

Next, one embodiment of the present invention will be described.

Example 1 As shown in Figure 1 A and B, outer diameter 60 mm x inner diameter 15 mm
× On the outer peripheral surface of a wooden cylindrical roller 1 with a length of 600 mm
Tube holes 2 with a hole diameter of 5 mm were drilled in a staggered manner at a pitch of 10 mm, and furthermore, extremely small holes 4 with a hole diameter of 1.0 mm were drilled to communicate a part of the bottom periphery of each tuft hole 2 with the inner diameter hole 3. Next, approximately 200 nylon brush bristles 5 with a diameter of 0.3 mm were implanted in each bristle-planting hole 2 to produce a roller brush 6 with an outer diameter of 130 mm.

This roller brush 6 is rotatably supported above the rice cracker dough punching roll of the rice cracker dough punch rolling machine shown in FIG. 5, and is vertically adjustable. The height was adjusted so that the upper end of the cutting die was in contact with the upper end of the cutting roll.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, a watertight pipe 9 connected to a water tank 8 through a diaphragm pump 7 is connected to both ends of the inner diameter hole 3 of the roller brush 6 so that water can be supplied from both ends of the inner diameter hole 3 to the inner diameter hole 3. It was attached so that it could rotate freely.

In the rice cracker dough rolling machine configured as described above, a diaphragm pump 7 connected to the roller brush 6 pumps 200 c.c. of water per hour at a pressure of several kg/cm ² into the inner diameter hole 3 of the roller brush 6. The rolling mill was operated while supplying

That is, the rolled rice cracker material is placed on the transfer belt 10 and moved forward. At this time, as the rice cracker material moves on the transfer belt 10, the rice cracker dough punching roll 11 rotates while cutting out the rice cracker dough, and the positional relationship between the roller brush 6 and the rice cracker dough punching roll 11 is shown in FIG. Since the roller brush 6 is in contact with the cutting die 12 of the roll 11, it can be rotated without a special driving device.

The water supplied to the roller brush 6 oozes out from the tiny holes 4 to the bristle holes 2 and is held uniformly between the brush bristles 5 by capillary phenomenon, so that the upper end of the cutting die that comes into contact with the tip of the brush bristles 5 is Since a thin and uniform film of water is always formed, all of the rice cracker dough that has been cut out from the rice cracker material by the cutting die 12 remains on the transfer belt 10, and the separation between the cutting die 12 and the rice cracker dough is ensured. I was disappointed. In addition, the rice crackers that have been baked are
Compared to a conventional roller brush in which water was manually applied for mold release, the quality of seasoning adhesion was uniform and superior.

The above embodiment uses water for mold release, but when oil is used instead of water, the diameter of the very small hole 4 that communicates the flocking hole 2 and the inner diameter hole 3 is determined by experiment.
1.2mm is appropriate. The oil supply rate is 100 c.c./hour.
was good.

Example 2 As shown in FIG. 7, a number of nylon wires 21 of appropriate length are sandwiched one after another between a steel strip 19 and a steel wire 20, and the steel strip 19 is placed in the center in the longitudinal direction so that the steel wire 20 becomes the core. In order to use the channel type brush, which is folded by a cylindrical roller, wound spirally around the outer periphery of a steel pipe 22 as a cylindrical roller, and fixed by welding, as the roller brush, the following configuration was adopted.

That is, as shown in FIG.
It has a structure in which a large number of very small holes 4 are provided which communicate with the outside, and water or oil is supplied to the inner diameter holes 3.

Such a roller brush is placed above the rice cracker dough punching roll of the rice cracker dough punching rolling machine shown in Fig. 5.
The mold-cutting work of rice cracker dough was carried out using the machine which was attached rotatably and vertically adjustable, and the work could be carried out continuously as in Example 1, and the quality of the product was also good.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to hold a small amount of liquid such as water or oil in the bristles of the brush, and it is possible to omit manual labor in the work of continuously and thinly and uniformly applying these liquids. This is highly effective in reducing costs. In addition, according to such a roller brush, when used in a conventional rice cracker dough rolling machine, the molded rice cracker dough can be reliably released from the mold, so it does not require water, etc. for conventional manual mold release. It has the remarkable effect of eliminating the need to apply it at all.
