DOUGHNUT DOUGH SHAPING MACHINE

Abstract

A doughnut dough shaping machine, has a plurality of shaping bodies, which constitute a shaping part, arranged at predetermined gaps and coupled between two disc-type shaping support parts; has a cylinder rod-shaped operating part, which comprises a coupling part and a handle part, provided at through-parts perforated at the center of each shaping support part by means of bearing parts, so as to roll the shaping support parts and the shaping part on the upper surface of the doughnut dough, thereby making a uniform doughnut; and cuts only both end sections of the doughnut dough by non-cut shaping parts at the centers of the shaping bodies and cut-shaping parts at both ends thereof, such that the cut doughnut dough is overlapped in a cylinder shape, thereby producing a flower-shaped doughnut.

Claims

1. A doughnut dough shaping machine for rapidly producing a doughnut having a uniform shape and a uniform weight when a large amount of doughnuts are produced, the doughnut dough shaping machine comprising: a cylindrical rod manipulation unit comprising a binding part and handle parts; a pair of disc-type shaping support parts (30) in which penetration parts are perforated such that the manipulation unit passes therethrough; a shaping part formed by fixing and coupling a plurality of shaping bodies between the pair of shaping support parts, wherein a uniformed doughnut is produced by rolling the shaping part fixed and coupled between the shaping support parts on an upper surface of doughnut dough

2. The doughnut dough shaping machine of claim 1, wherein each of the shaping bodies comprises cut shaping parts at opposite ends thereof, and a non-cut shaping part at a center thereof, so that a flower-shaped doughnut is produced by cutting opposite ends of the doughnut dough and allowing the cut doughnut dough to cylindrically overlap each other.

3. The doughnut dough shaping machine of claim 1, further comprising rings coupled to surfaces of the handle parts.

4. The doughnut dough shaping machine of claim 1, further comprising air outlets (32) perforated in the shaping support parts, wherein when a rotational force and a pressure applied to the manipulation unit are transferred to the shaping bodies and are applied to an upper surface of the doughnut dough, compressed air is discharged between the shaping bodies and the doughnut dough, so that the shaped doughnut dough is easily separated from the shaping bodies.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] The present invention relates to a doughnut dough shaping machine which rapidly produces a doughnut having a uniform shape and a uniform weight when a large amount of doughnuts are produced, and provides a doughnut dough shaping machine including: a cylindrical rod manipulation unit 10 including a binding part 12 and handle parts 11; a pair of disc-type shaping support parts 30 in which penetration parts 31 are perforated such that the manipulation unit 10 passes therethrough; and a shaping part 20 formed by coupling a plurality of shaping bodies 21 between the pair of shaping support parts 30, wherein a uniformed doughnut may be produced by rolling the shaping part 20 fixed and coupled between the shaping support parts 30 on the upper surface of doughnut dough.

[0021] The present invention provides a doughnut dough shaping machine in which the cylindrical rod manipulation unit 10 is installed by medium of a bearing unit 40 so that a uniformed doughnut may be produced by rolling the shaping support parts 30 and the shaping part 20 on the upper surface of doughnut dough 50.

[0022] In more detail, the cylindrical rod manipulation unit 10 includes the opposite handle parts 11 and the binding part 12 between the handle parts 11, and the manipulation unit 10 passes through the penetration parts 31 of the pair of disc-type shaping support parts 30 and is installed by medium of the bearing unit 40. The shaping part 20 is formed by fixing and coupling the plurality of shaping bodies to the pair of shaping support parts, and the uniformed doughnut may be produced by rolling the shaping part and the shaping support parts on the upper surface of the doughnut dough.

[0023] That is, the manipulation unit 10 is formed to have a long cylindrical shape such that a hand of a user is held thereon to make it easy to apply a rotational force and a pressure, and the doughnut dough 50 may be shaped by applying a rotational force and a pressure to the handle parts 11 at opposite ends of the manipulation unit 10, and transferring the rotational force and the pressure to the shaping bodies 21.

[0024] Further, rings 13 are formed on surfaces of the handle parts 11, and thus, when the doughnut dough shaping machine is not used, the doughnut dough shaping machine may be efficiently stored by hanging the rings 13.

[0025] The shaping bodies 21, each having a non-cut shaping surface 21a at the center thereof, and cut shaping surfaces 21b at opposite ends thereof, are arranged in the shaping unit 20. Thus, as illustrated in FIG. 1, the rotational force and the pressure applied to the handle parts 11 are transferred to the shaping bodies 21, and thus, are applied to the doughnut dough 50. Therefore, the doughnut dough 50 is shaped at a uniform interval, so that efficiency in producing a large amount of doughnuts may be improved. Further, a central portion of the doughnut dough is not cut due to the non-cut shaping surface at the center of each shaping body, and opposite ends of the doughnut dough may be cut by the cut shaping surfaces at the opposite ends of the shaping body, so that a flower-shaped doughnut as illustrated in FIG. 5 may be produced by allowing the cut doughnut dough to cylindrically overlap each other.

[0026] The shaping bodies 21 arranged at a specific interval are coupled to surfaces of the shaping support parts 30, the shaping support parts 30 are formed in a disc-type shape such that the rotational force applied to the manipulation unit 10 is easily transferred to the shaping part 20, and the shaping support parts 30 have the penetration parts 31 at the center thereof such that the binding part 12 of the handle parts 10 may pass through and be fastened to the penetration parts 31. Further, a plurality of air outlets 32 are formed at a space between the shaping bodies 21, and thus, when the rotational force and the pressure applied to the manipulation unit 11 are transferred to the shaping bodies 21 and are thus applied to the upper surface of the doughnut dough 50, the air outlets 32 discharge compressed air between the shaping bodies 21 and the doughnut dough 50, so that the shaped doughnut dough 50 may be easily separated from the shaping bodies 21.

[0027] The bearing unit 40 is installed between the penetration parts 31 of each shaping support part, and when the handle parts 11 are rotated, rotates the shaping part 20 fastened to one surface of the shaping support part 30 through the rotation of the handle parts 11, while supporting a self-weight of the handle parts 11 and a load applied to the handle parts 11.

[0028] Because the doughnut dough shaping machine is in contact with water during washing or using, and thus, risks to be corroded, each component of the doughnut dough shaping machine is made of stainless steel, so that the doughnut dough shaping machine may resist corrosion.

[0029] Because it is apparent that functions of components of the bearing unit 40 may be inferred from the widely-known bearing-related technology, the functions are not separately described.
