FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a detailed structure of the automatic unloader 38. The projections are not necessarily accurate because the structures and functions are drawn for easy understanding. The conveyor chain 30a is wound around the sprocket 30b. This sprocket 30b has a horizontal shaft 30c.
The conveyor chain 30a is supported by and is rotated at a constant speed as indicated by an arrow f (continuously, not intermittently), and the conveyor chain 30a is circulated in the directions of arrows d and e. A large number of baking molds 39 are attached to the conveyor chain 30a. The baking mold according to the present invention is attached to the conveyor chain during operation and is not mounted or unloaded on the conveyor chain. The baking mold 39 of this embodiment has its concave portion facing upward while being conveyed in the direction of arrow d, and is turned upside down during a half turn together with the sprocket 30b as indicated by arrow f, and is conveyed in the direction of arrow d. When doing so, the concave portion is directed downward. 41 is a conveyor net as a belt-shaped member that is flexible and has heat resistance. The conveyor net of the present embodiment has an endless annular band shape made of stainless wire configured so as to function as a belt of a belt conveyor. In the present invention, the term “flexible” means that it can be easily bent, and does not need to exhibit a low value when measured with a Shore hardness meter or a micro Vickers hardness meter. Further, it is sufficient that the surface that is macroscopically band-shaped can be bent in the longitudinal direction, and the rigidity may be exhibited in the width direction. (For example, it may be flexible or plastic in the X-axis direction and rigid in the Y-axis direction like a lattice shutter installed at the entrance of a building or like a blind.) In the present invention, heat resistance is sufficient as long as it can withstand the baking temperature of the food to be baked, and does not need to withstand the red heat temperature. The conveyor net 41
Are sequentially wound around the rollers 42a, 42b, 42c, 42d and the sprocket 43, and the arrows g, h, i,
It is circulated and rotated like j. And the roller 42
Between the b and 42c, the baking die conveying path which is attached to the conveyor chain 30a and makes a half-circle around the sprocket 30b is covered, and in contact with this, it advances in an arc shape as indicated by an arrow h. At this time, the peripheral speed indicated by the arrow f and the peripheral speed indicated by the arrow h are matched. As described above, the means for matching the peripheral speeds can be arbitrarily determined by design. For example, the drive rotation speed of the sprocket 43 may be appropriately controlled, the frictional force between the conveyor net 41 and the conveyor chain 30a may be used, or the conveyor net 41 and the sprocket 30b may be meshed with each other. Baking mold 29 being conveyed as shown by arrow d
Inside is the baked octopus grill 40. When the baking mold is turned upside down while being conveyed in the direction of the arrow f, the octopus baking inside the baking mold falls by its own weight, rides on the conveyor net 41, and is carried out as indicated by the arrows i and k.

According to an experiment conducted by the present inventor, when the automatic octopus baking machine shown in FIG. 7 is operating in a normal state, the baked octopus baking does not stick to the baking dies and the baking dies are moved up and down. It will fall smoothly when inverted. However, in the case of carrying out the present invention, a vibrator (not shown), which is placed near the portion M shown in FIG. 1 and vibrates the baking mold,
Alternatively, if a hammer (not shown) that gives an impact to the baking dies is provided, the octopus baking can be more reliably released from the dies, and the octopus baking can be taken out even when the operation of the baking machine 37 shown in FIG. 7 fails. The action is surely performed. Therefore, it becomes possible to restore the normal operation by adjusting the baking machine 37 without stopping the operation of the automatic octopus baking machine.
When the apparatus of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is used as described above, the octopus grill can be taken out from the baking dies which are continuously conveyed. In the above embodiment, the chain conveyor can be operated at a constant speed for a long time (for example, 8 hours). However, in the present invention, in order to distinguish between the intermittent transfer and the continuous transfer of the baking dies, it is basically an intermittent operation that the progress and stop are repeated for each pitch dimension p shown in FIG. It is continuous to convey the oil at a constant speed. However, the oil wiper 3 shown in FIG.
1. If the lower dough injecting machine 32, the octopus piece injecting machine 33, the cake dregs injecting machine 34, the vegetable injecting machine 35, and the upper dough injecting machine 36 are respectively configured in a double type and a triple type, the dimension is 2p even in the intermittent operation. , 3p is progressed at a constant speed, so the above basic definition does not apply. Therefore, in the present invention, continuous conveyance means a case where the speed is constant while the baking mold makes a half turn along with the sprocket 30b in the direction of the arrow f shown in FIG.

As described above, according to the present invention, a method for extracting a spherical confectionery (for example, octopus baked) is a ring-shaped member in which a large number of baking molds connected in an endless ring are rotated around a horizontal axis. In the method of taking out the spherical confectionery that has been baked while being horizontally wrapped around and baked from the baking mold, the many baking molds make a half turn along the outer circumference of the ring-shaped member, and the baking recesses face downward from downward. When it is inverted to a concave shape, the opening of the baking mold is covered with a flexible heat-resistant belt-shaped member, and the belt-shaped member is made to rotate halfway around the baking mold at the same peripheral speed as the baking mold.
