This application claims priorities from Taiwan Patent Application No. 109141055, filed on Nov. 24, 2020, and Taiwan Patent Application No. 110135787, filed on Sep. 27, 2021, in the Taiwan Intellectual Property Office, the content of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety for all purposes.
The invention relates to a food processing system, and more particularly to a computer numerically controlled flow resistance system based on container features and properties of food ingredients.
At present, the decoration and processing of food surfaces such as cakes and biscuits usually involves filling creamy ingredients such as cream, frosting, chocolate or jam into a pastry bag, and manually extruding the creamy ingredient out of the pastry bag through a conical nozzle to decorate the surface of the food. The food surface is decorated with various designs of patterns, shapes, and texts to increase customers' desire to buy the food. At present, when using the existing computer numerically controlled (CNC) food processor, the pastry extrusion head needs to be replaced frequently during the extrusion process. Therefore, the existing pastry extrusion head placement rack needs to be equipped with a fixing element to fix or loosen the pastry extrusion head in order to install the pastry extrusion head on the feeding cylinder or remove the pastry extrusion head from the feeding cylinder, it will take a great amount of time to replace the pastry extrusion head, and the time of fixing or loosening the pastry extrusion head by the fixing element must be accurately matched with the feeding cylinder, otherwise the pastry extrusion head will easily fall to the outside of the pastry extrusion head placement rack or will skew, causing the manufacturing process to be interrupted. Traditionally, in extrusion of a food ingredient, after the food ingredient fluid is extruded, even if the extruding action is stopped, the liquid will continue to flow out due to the residual pressure, which makes it difficult to control the flow rate required for the extrusion, and the food ingredient remains outside the extrusion nozzle (i.e. pastry extrusion head), affecting the extruding shape and causing difficulty in cleaning. However, the existing pastry extruding device cannot adjust the required temperature according to the properties of the food, which often causes the pastry nozzle to be clogged or the extrusion volume is too much and difficult to be controlled. Moreover, food ingredients are likely to remain on the pastry nozzle, resulting in defects in the extruded product, and therefore it requires labor to remove the food ingredients. Moreover, there is currently no product with a design that can automatically mix food ingredients and colors on the market, so users need to manually mix the food ingredients and colors. However, each color mixing requires a certain amount of food ingredients, and users cannot mix the food ingredients and colors at any time they want according to requirements.
In view of the above, an object of the invention is to provide a computer numerically controlled flow resistance system based on container features and properties of food ingredients to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.

One of the characteristics of the invention is that the controller 400 is capable of adjusting and controlling a degree of flow resistance according to container features and properties of the food ingredients. Wherein, before the end of extrusion, the invention applies corresponding pumpback distance, pumpback speed and pause time in advance to perform flow resistance control based on a shape and a size of a pastry tip of an extrusion nozzle (the pastry extrusion head 60), a taper of the extrusion nozzle of container features, as well as the properties of the food ingredients such as viscosity, density, etc. Before the next extruding action starts, pre-extruding is performed according to the parameters of the previous flow resistance. Thereby, the invention is capable of solving the problems in the traditional technology that the fluid continues to flow out due to residual pressure, making it difficult to control the flow rate required for extrusion and the food ingredients remain outside the pastry tip, and affecting an extruding shape and causing difficulty in cleaning.
Take a 5 mm round extrusion nozzle and orange jam as an example, the preferred parameters are as follows: when a feeding speed is 2000 mm/min, an extrusion speed is 10 mm/min, and an opening of a pastry tip is 5 mm from an extrusion plane, macro NC codes are applied during pumpback, a pumpback distance is 3 mm, and a pumpback speed is 100%; in a subsequent pre-extrusion, macro NC codes of other parameters are also applied, pre-extrusion in advance is 1 second, a movement speed is controlled at 100% feeding speed, and an extrusion speed is 80%. Wherein, if the extrusion speed is not fast enough, the extruded food ingredient will be intermittent, and if the extrusion speed is too fast, an amount of the food ingredient extruded from the pastry tip of the pastry extrusion head 60 will be excessive. Take a 5 mm round extrusion nozzle and salad dressing as an example, the preferred parameters are as follows: when a feeding speed is 3400 mm/min, an extrusion speed is 20 mm/min, and an opening of a pastry tip is 4 mm from an extrusion plane, macro NC codes are applied during pumpback, a pumpback distance is 1 mm, and a pumpback speed is 100%; in a subsequent pre-extrusion, macro NC codes of other parameters are also applied, pre-extrusion in advance is 0 second, a movement speed is controlled at 100% feeding speed, and an extrusion speed is 80%. By the same token, if the extrusion speed is not fast enough, the extruded food ingredient will be intermittent, and if the extrusion speed is too fast, an amount of the food ingredient extruded from the pastry tip of the pastry extrusion head 60 will be excessive.
The stirring element 30 of the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention is rotatably disposed in the mixing chamber 10, and is connected to a driving motor 500 via a rod 31 to stir the food ingredients, so that a mixture after stirring has a color corresponding to the mixing ratio.
The pushing plate 36 of the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention is connected to a piston rod 610 of a piston cylinder 600, and is displaceably disposed in the mixing chamber 10 by extending or retracting the piston rod 610 by the piston cylinder 600. A center of the pushing plate 36 has a perforation 13, through the perforation 13 the pushing plate 36 is movably and airtightly sleeved with the stirring element 30, and is displaced along the stirring element 30 in the mixing chamber 10, thereby the stirred mixture is extruded out of a pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60. Wherein, a shape of the pushing plate 36 matches a cross-sectional shape of the mixing chamber 10. For example, if the mixing chamber 10 is cylindrical, the pushing plate 36 is circular, so that a periphery of the pushing plate 36 can be abutted to an inner wall of the mixing chamber 10 closely. Wherein, in order to obtain a better abutting effect, for example, a rubber ring can be provided on the periphery of the pushing plate 36, and when the pushing plate 36 is displacing, the rubber ring is tightly attached to the inner wall of the mixing chamber 10. In addition, a hole wall of the perforation 13 of the pushing plate 36 can also be provided with a rubber ring, and when the pushing plate 36 is displacing along the stirring element 30, the pushing plate 36 can be tightly attached to the stirring element 30 with the rubber ring.
In detail, a top of the mixing chamber 10 has two perforations, a hole wall of the perforation is also preferably provided with a rubber ring, wherein one end of the rod 31 is connected to the stirring element 30, and another end of the rod 31 penetrates from an interior of the mixing chamber 10 through one of the perforations to the outside and is connected to the driving motor 500 located outside the mixing chamber 10. The piston cylinder 600 is located outside the mixing chamber 10, and the piston rod 610 of the piston cylinder 600 penetrates from the outside of the mixing chamber 10 to the interior of the mixing chamber 10 through the other perforation and is connected to the pushing plate 36. The driving motor 500 and the piston cylinder 600 perform rotational stirring or retractable displacement according to a control command of the controller 400 of the food processor 200, for example. Since a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the invention pertains should be able to understand how the controller 400 controls the driving motor 500 and the piston cylinder 600 to stir and extrude the food ingredients based on the disclosure content of the invention, so it will not be mentioned here again.
In the invention, the mixture in the mixing chamber 10 is extruded from the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60 by moving the pushing plate 36. After extrusion is completed, even though the pushing plate 36 has stopped displacing, the mixture in the mixing chamber 10 will continue to move toward the pastry extrusion head 60 due to inertia, which can cause an excessive and unexpected amount of the mixture to be extruded from the pastry tip 66. In order to solve this problem, the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention is provided with the resetting element 90 capable of causing the pushing plate 36 to move in a flow resistance direction D (opposite to a displacement direction during extrusion) when the extrusion is completed to prevent the excessive mixture from extruding from the pastry tip 66, thereby capable of improving the extrusion quality and maintaining the extrusion cost and efficiency.
The resetting element 90 is disposed between the piston cylinder 600 and the mixing chamber 10, wherein when the pushing plate 36 is displacing, the resetting element 90 moves the piston cylinder 600 to an extruding position according to an extrusion signal of the controller 400; when the pushing plate 36 stops displacing, the resetting element 90 moves the piston cylinder 600 to a flow resistance position according to a flow resistance signal of the controller 400, thereby driving the pushing plate 36 to move in the flow resistance direction D (opposite to a displacement direction during extrusion), so that the mixture can be flush with or recessed in the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60.

In detail, in the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention, a first connecting element 40 is disposed on the bottom side of the mixing chamber 10, and a second connecting element 62 is disposed on a top side of the pastry extrusion head 60. Thereby, the mixing chamber 10 is detachably connected to the second connecting element 62 of the pastry extrusion head 60 through the first connecting element 40, and an opening position of the mixing chamber 10 corresponds to a guide groove 64 of the pastry extrusion head 60. Wherein, the first connecting element 40, for example, can be connected to the second connecting element 62 of the pastry extrusion head 60 by magnetic connection. Either the first connecting element 40 or the second connecting element 62 is an electromagnet or an iron plate, the other of the first connecting element 40 or the second connecting element 62 is an iron plate or a magnet, or both the first connecting element 40 and the second connecting element 62 are electromagnets capable of generating opposite magnetisms. If the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention is applied to an automated food extrusion system, the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100, for example, can be installed on a robotic arm, and preferably a multi-axis robotic arm, such as the second movable frame 240 of the CNC food processor 200 in order to meet the requirements of various angles of food extrusion. Since the invention is detachably connected to the mixing chamber 10 and the pastry extrusion head 60 by means of electromagnet magnetic attraction, the invention is capable of accurately and quickly connecting the pastry extrusion head 60 to the mixing chamber 10 without installing additional fixing devices in order to greatly reduce the time required to replace the pastry extrusion head 60. Furthermore, the invention only needs to demagnetize the electromagnet to cause the pastry extrusion head 60 to drop into the pastry extrusion head placement rack 210, so the pastry extrusion head 60 can be quickly disassembled. In addition, the bottom side of the mixing chamber 10, for example, can be provided with a sealing gasket 18 made of material of silicon rubber, and the pastry extrusion head 60 has a sealing groove 19, and the sealing groove 19 corresponds to the sealing gasket 18. In this way, the mixing chamber 10 can be closely connected to the pastry extrusion head 60 to prevent leakage of the food ingredients.
For example, in an implementation aspect of the first embodiment, the first connecting element 40 is, for example, an electromagnet, and the second connecting element 62 of the pastry extrusion head 60 is, for example, an iron material, such as an iron plate. The mixing chamber 10 can be disposed with a conductive circuit 15, a first end of the conductive circuit 15 of the mixing chamber 10 is electrically connected to the first connecting element 40, and a second end of the conductive circuit 15 of the mixing chamber 10 is electrically connected to an electric power supply source. Wherein, in order to make the figures concise, the electric power supply source is not drawn in the figures. When the first connecting element 40 of the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention generates magnetism, the second connecting element 62 of the pastry extrusion head 60 to be used can be magnetically attracted. If the pastry extrusion head 60 is to be replaced, electric power can be turned off first, with the first connecting element 40 being demagnetized, the pastry extrusion head 60 to be dismounted can be separated from the first connecting element 40. Then, the food processor 200 moves the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 to a position above the pastry extrusion head 60 to be used, and then electric power is supplied again, so that the first connecting element 40 generates magnetism to attract the pastry extrusion head 60 to be used.
In another implementation aspect of the first embodiment, the first connecting element 40 is, for example, an electromagnet, and the second connecting element 62 of the pastry extrusion head 60 is, for example, an electromagnet. When the mixing chamber 10 is connected to the pastry extrusion head 60, the second connecting element 62 of the pastry extrusion head 60 can be electrically connected to the second end of the conductive circuit 15 of the mixing chamber 10, so as to supply electric power through the electric power supply source to the first connecting element 40 on the mixing chamber 10 to generate magnetism. In other words, when the first connecting element 40 of the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention contacts the pastry extrusion head 60, both the first connecting element 40 and the second connecting element 62 are capable of generating magnetism with opposite magnetic poles, for example, S pole and N pole respectively to attract the second connecting element 62 of the pastry extrusion head 60 to be used by magnetic force. If the pastry extrusion head 60 is to be replaced, electric power supply can be turned off first, and the first connecting element 40 and the second connecting element 62 can be demagnetized so that the pastry extrusion head 60 to be dismounted can be separated from the first connecting element 40, and then the food processor 200 moves a position of the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 and electric power is supplied again, and the first connecting element 40 and the second connecting element 62 generate magnetism to attract the other pastry extrusion head 60 to be used.

Wherein, the nozzles of the spray head 20 can be communicated with each other through a fluid pipeline 21, and communicated to a fluid supply source (not shown in the figures) through the fluid pipeline 21, wherein the fluid supply source is electrically connected to the controller 400, thereby providing a high-pressure gas according to a cleaning command of the controller 400, a pressure value is approximately greater than 10 kg per square centimeter, so that the high-pressure gas is ejected from the nozzles of the spray head 20 to remove residual materials remaining on an inner surface and/or an outer surface of the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60. Wherein, a time span for the nozzles of the spray head 20 to spray a liquid can be, for example, approximately between 1 and 10 seconds. Preferably, the fluid supply source of the invention can also, for example, supply a high-pressure liquid to the spray head 20 through the fluid pipeline 21, so as to spray the high-pressure liquid from the nozzles of the spray head 20 to remove residual food ingredients remaining on the inner surface and/or the outer surface of the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60, and then a high-pressure gas can be supplied to the spray head 20 through the fluid pipeline 21, and the high-pressure gas is ejected to dry a liquid remaining on the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60 for subsequent processes. For example, in the invention, the above-mentioned material removal process can be performed after the pastry extrusion head 60 is magnetically attracted, and then an extrusion process can be performed. Alternatively, in the invention, after the extrusion process is completed, the above-mentioned material removal process can be performed first, and then a disposition process of the pastry extrusion head 60 can be performed. Wherein, a time span for the nozzles of the spray head 20 to spray a gas can be, for example, approximately between 1 and 10 seconds. In addition, the nozzles of the spray head 20 of the invention can spray high-pressure liquid and gas alternately, for example, first spray a high-pressure liquid for a time span of approximately between 1-10 seconds, and then spray a high-pressure gas for a time span of approximately between 1-10 seconds, and then a high-pressure liquid is sprayed for a time span of approximately between 1-10 seconds, and so on, which is capable of effectively removing food ingredients remaining on the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60.
For example, the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention can further have, for example, a detection element 72 disposed on the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60, and the detection element 72 is electrically connected to the controller 400, for example, through the aforementioned method. In the material removal process, after the nozzles of the spray head 20 spray liquid and gas to remove food ingredients remaining on the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60, the detection element 72 can detect whether there is food ingredient remaining on the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60, if there is food ingredient, the detection element 72 can generate a detection result signal to the controller 400, wherein the controller 400 is capable of generating a cleaning command based on the detection result signal, after the fluid supply source receives the cleaning command, the fluid supply source can supply a fluid to the spray head 20, so that the spray head 20 can perform the material removal process again. Wherein, the detection element 72 is not limited to an optical sensor, an electronic sensor, or an image sensor, etc., as long as it can be used to determine whether there is food ingredient remaining on the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60, it can be applied to the invention. For the optical sensor, the detection element 72, for example, can be disposed on the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60, by determining whether light is interrupted by food ingredients, whether the material removal process of the pastry tip 66 of the pastry extrusion head 60 is successful can be determined; if removal is not successful, the material removal process can be performed again.

The thermal insulation jacket 82 is used to detachably annularly cover the side wall of the mixing chamber 10, and preferably further annularly cover the side wall of the pastry extrusion head 60. Wherein, an outer shape of the thermal insulation jacket 82 can be, for example, a plate shape, and two ends of the thermal insulation jacket 82 have corresponding fasteners, such as buttons, for fastening or buckling with each other.
In addition, the temperature controllable device 80 of the invention, for example, further comprises a temperature sensor 86 disposed on the mixing chamber 10 to detect a temperature of a food ingredient in the mixing chamber 10 and transmit a temperature sensing signal to the controller 400, thereby the controller 400 generating a corresponding temperature controllable command to cause the temperature regulating element 84 adjust a temperature according to the temperature controllable command of the controller 400. If a temperature of a food ingredient reaches a set temperature, the temperature regulating element 84 stops operating; if the temperature is lower or higher than the set temperature, the heater or the cooler of the temperature regulating element 84 performs corresponding operations to adjust the temperature.
In addition, besides the temperature controllable device 80 of the invention being disposed on the mixing chamber 10, the invention can further have the temperature controllable devices 80 disposed on the pastry extrusion head 60, for example, thereby the temperature controllable devices 80 are not limited to only capable of controlling the mixing chamber 10 and the pastry extrusion head 60 at a same temperature, that is, the temperature controllable devices 80 are also capable of controlling the mixing chamber 10 and the pastry extrusion head 60 at different temperatures according to the temperature controllable command of the controller 400 to meet temperature properties of a food ingredient. For example, the melting point of chocolate is 29 degrees Celsius, but the storage temperature is 12 to 18 degrees Celsius. Therefore, if the computer numerically controlled flow resistance system 100 of the invention is applied to extrusion of chocolate, for example, a temperature of the mixing chamber 10 is controlled to be between 18 degrees Celsius and 29 degrees Celsius, and a temperature of the pastry extrusion head 60 is controlled to be above 29 degrees Celsius.
