Principle overview
After the device is turned on, the burner heats up the egg cooking trays. The advancement system pushes the heating dishes along the rail, sequentially completing steps such as oiling, filling, flipping, and pressing, causing adjacent cooked egg sheets to merge into one. The empty heating dishes continue to move forward, repeating the process of oiling, filling, flipping, and pressing. After four cycles, a standard tamagoyaki consisting of five layers of egg sheets is produced.
Heating Dish
This apparatus is used to hold egg mixture and other raw materials. The egg tray is designed with a double slot, with each slot having the same dimensions as a standard tamagoyaki. The material is aluminum alloy, and the inner walls are coated with Teflon. The egg trays are paired, and the egg sheets can be stacked through a flipping action.
Support System
This apparatus is used to fix various functional components and provide a track for the egg trays to move along. The track is a loop that operates in a cycle, allowing the egg trays to move continuously around it.
Advancement System
This apparatus is used to push the egg trays along the track in a rhythmic manner, pausing at intervals to perform tasks such as oiling, filling, flipping, and pressing. The travel speed can be flexibly adjusted according to the production process.
Oiling System
This apparatus is used to evenly apply edible oil to the inner walls of the egg trays. It uses a pneumatic pump to supply oil to the oiling mechanism in measured amounts, and applies the oil quickly and evenly through a downward pressing action.
Heating System
This apparatus is used to heat the egg trays. It consists of multiple parallel fire bars, with gas as the energy source. The layout and spacing of the fire bars are designed reasonably, and the flame intensity of each branch can be precisely controlled using individually configured flow valves.
Filling System
This apparatus is used to fill the egg trays with egg mixture. It can distribute the egg mixture evenly into the trays. By adjusting the amount of egg mixture dispensed, the thickness of a single layer of egg can be controlled.
Flipping System
This apparatus is used to flip the egg trays. It can stack the thick, pressed egg sheets onto the freshly baked single-layer egg sheets, controlling the heating time of each layer to ensure consistent doneness throughout the final product.
Control System
This apparatus is used to adjust the travel speed of the track, coordinating the action frequency and cycle of various devices to ensure seamless and tight integration of all processes.
