1. A method for forming stuffed food, comprising steps of:
step 1: sending and cutting dough wrappers; wherein shaping molds (1001) on a rotation disc (101) are arranged below a sending and cutting station (20); the dough wrappers are cut into pre-set shapes before dropping in the shaping molds (1001); unused dough enters an opening (106) on the rotation disc (101) and is transported downwardly, so as to be collected;
step 2: filling the dough wrappers with stuffing; wherein the shaping molds (1001) transport the dough wrappers to a stuffing injection station (30) where the stuffing is injected onto the dough wrappers;
step 3: pressing and shaping; wherein the shaping molds (1001) are transported by the rotation disc (101) to a shaping station (40) where the dough wrappers are pressed and shaped; and
step 4: outputting final products; wherein the shaping molds (1001) are transported to a discharge station (50), so as to output the final products;
wherein a forming machine is used to perform the method, comprising: a rotation assembly (100), wherein at least the sending and cutting station (20) and the stuffing injection station (30) are arranged around the rotation assembly (100); the rotation assembly (100) has the opening (106) for collecting the unused dough from the sending and cutting station (20); a distance between an internal side of the shaping molds (1001) and a center of the rotation assembly (100) is larger than a distance between an internal side of the opening (106) and the center of the rotation assembly (100);
wherein the rotation assembly (100) comprises the rotation disc (101); the shaping molds (1001) are evenly distributed on the rotation disc (101); the rotation disc (101) has the opening (106) for collecting the unused dough; wherein a distance between the internal side of the shaping molds (1001) and a center of the rotation disc (101) is larger than a distance between the internal side of the opening (106) and the center of the rotation disc (101);
wherein a structure of the opening (106) is continuously arranged on the rotation disc (101); and the opening (106) is circular or loop-shaped;
wherein the motor drives the rotation disc (101) to rotate the shaping molds (1001) which is connected to the rotation disc (101); the unused dough after cutting enters the opening (106) on the rotation disc (101), so as to be collected; a base (102) and a guiding plate (103) under the rotation disc (101) is independent thereto, which are static during working; guiding rails are provided on both the base (102) and the guiding plate (103); guiding rollers on the shaping molds (1001) are guided by the guiding rails to drive a catch plate (1004) and the shaping molds to move up and down respectively.
