Abstract
The present invention relates to a spring roll making apparatus comprising: a supply unit for supplying rice paper; a moving unit for moving the rice paper supplied by the supply unit; a softening unit for inducing softening of the rice paper moved by the moving unit; an application unit for applying a filling onto the rice paper softened by the softening unit; a folding unit for folding the rice paper on which the filling placed; and a rolling unit for rolling up the rice paper folded by the folding unit, whereby spring rolls can be mass-produced.
Claims20
A spring roll making apparatus comprising:
- a supply unit that supplies each rice paper, the supply unit comprising:
- a supply guide unit;
- a supply replenishment unit mounted on the supply guide unit, wherein the supply replenishment unit moves the rice paper along the supply guide unit and replenishes the rice paper,
- a supply standby unit mounted on the supply guide unit, wherein the supply standby unit maintains the rice paper supplied from the supply replenishment unit in a standby state;
- and
- a supply transfer unit mounted on the supply guide unit and capable of moving each of the rice papers stacked on the supply standby unit to the softening unit;
- a movement unit disposed adjacent to and downstream of the supply unit, wherein the movement unit moves the rice paper supplied through the supply unit;
- a softening unit disposed downstream of the supply unit, wherein at least a portion of the softening unit is above or below at least a portion of the movement unit, and wherein the softening unit induces softening of the rice paper moved through the movement unit;
- an input unit disposed downstream of the softening unit, wherein at least a portion of the input unit is above at least a portion of the movement unit such that the input unit inputs stuffing into the rice paper softened by the softening unit and moved by the movement unit;
- a folder unit disposed downstream of the input unit, wherein at least a portion of the folder unit is above at least a portion of the movement unit such that the folder unit folds the rice paper on which the stuffing is seated and which is moved by the movement unit;
- and
- a rotation unit disposed above at least a portion of the movement unit and downstream of the folding unit, wherein the rotation unit rolls the rice paper passing through the folder unit and moved through the movement unit,
- wherein a belt of the movement unit is in material communication with each of the supply unit, the softening unit, the input unit, the folder unit, and the rotation unit such that the movement unit conveys the rice paper from the supply unit to each of the softening unit, the input unit, the folder unit, and the rotation unit.

- and
- a supply transfer unit mounted on the supply guide unit, wherein the supply transfer unit moves each of the rice papers stacked on the supply standby unit to the softening unit;
- a movement unit disposed adjacent to and downstream of the supply unit, wherein the movement unit moves the rice paper supplied through the supply unit;
- a softening unit disposed downstream of the supply unit, wherein at least a portion of the softening unit is above or below at least a portion of the movement unit, wherein the softening unit induces softening of the rice paper moved through the movement unit;
- an input unit disposed downstream of the softening unit, wherein at least a portion of the input unit is above at least a portion of the movement unit such that the input unit inputs stuffing into the rice paper softened by the softening unit and moved by the movement unit, wherein the input unit comprises:
- an input provision unit located adjacent to and in solid communication with an input cutting unit, wherein the input provision unit is configured to supply the stuffing to the input cutting unit;
- the input cutting unit located downstream of the input provision unit such that cuts and subdivides the stuffing discharged from the input provision unit;
- an input belt unit extending from the input cutting unit to an input stopper unit, wherein the input belt unit guides the subdivided stuffing;
- and
- the input stopper unit located downstream of the input cutting unit, wherein the input stopper unit stops the stuffing moved through the input belt unit;
- and
- an input dropping unit located adjacent to the input stopper unit such that the input dropping unit is capable of drop ping the stuffing, of which movement is stopped by the input stopper unit, from the input belt unit,
- a folder unit disposed downstream of the input unit, wherein at least a portion of the folder unit is above at least a portion of the movement unit such that the folder unit folds the rice paper on which the stuffing is seated and which is moved by the movement unit;
- and
- a rotation unit disposed above at least a portion of the movement unit and downstream of the folding unit, wherein the rotation unit rolls the rice paper passing through the folder unit and moved through the movement unit, and
- wherein a belt of the movement unit is in material communication with each of the supply unit, the softening unit, the input unit, the folder unit, and the rotation unit such that the movement unit conveys the rice paper from the supply unit to each of the softening unit, the input unit, the folder unit, and the rotation unit.
