Abstract

The application discloses a selenium-rich raw material grinding device for processing selenium-rich chewing gum and a method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of grinding equipment. The device comprises a receiving structure and a grinding structure. The grinding structure comprises a power unit and an execution unit. The execution unit comprises an upper grinding disc assembly and a lower grinding disc assembly arranged in an upper and lower manner. The rotating lower grinding disc assembly synchronously drives the driven grinding mechanism inside the cover to rotate. When the konjak block raw material is added into the cover, the konjak block is preliminarily ground into fine particles after falling between the female grinding tooth and the male grinding head. The preliminarily ground raw material enters the position between the upper grinding disc assembly and the lower grinding disc assembly through the feeding port of the upper grinding disc assembly from the opening at the bottom of the cover. Under the double action of the pressure and friction force generated between the rotating lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly above the lower grinding disc assembly, the raw material is finely ground again by the grinding groove between the lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly, and the raw material is gradually refined.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of grinding equipment technology, and more specifically, to a grinding apparatus and method for selenium-enriched raw materials used in the processing of selenium-enriched chewing gum. Background Technology

[0002] Konjac is a food rich in selenium, with a relatively high selenium content per 100 grams. It is also rich in dietary fiber, which helps regulate blood sugar and blood lipids, and is beneficial for weight control and preventing constipation. Currently, in chewing gum production, selenium-enriched konjac powder is often added. During chewing, the selenium and other nutrients in the gum dissolve and are absorbed by the body through saliva secreted during chewing.

[0003] In the production process of selenium-enriched chewing gum, konjac blocks need to be ground and processed to obtain the raw material required for the production of selenium-enriched chewing gum: konjac flour.

[0004] The prior art publication CN217249422U provides a grinding device for konjac flour. The device has a housing with a protective cover fixedly connected to the inner top wall. The grinding mechanism is provided inside the housing. The grinding mechanism includes a motor fixedly connected to the inner top of the protective cover. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to a first transmission rod. A spiral blade is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer surface of the first transmission rod. An inclined plate extending through the outside of the protective cover is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner wall of the protective cover.

[0005] However, in actual use, the existing grinding devices have a problem: some konjac blocks are located between the blade grooves during the cutting process of the konjac blocks by the spiral blades, which prevents them from being cut sufficiently. Furthermore, the grinding of the cut konjac blocks is achieved by pressing down on them with a pressure plate. This undoubtedly results in uneven particle size and insufficient fineness of the konjac powder produced, which cannot meet the actual production and processing requirements of selenium-enriched chewing gum.

[0006] In view of this, we propose a grinding device and method for selenium-enriched raw materials in the processing of selenium-enriched chewing gum. Summary of the Invention

[0040] The output end of the drive motor rotates through the bottom of the collection tank and connects to the lower grinding disc.

[0041] The present invention provides a method for using a selenium-enriched raw material grinding device for processing selenium-enriched chewing gum, comprising the following steps:

[0042] S1. Add konjac block raw materials required for producing selenium-enriched chewing gum into the cover part. Then, turn on the power unit and drive the lower grinding disc assembly located below the upper grinding disc assembly to rotate through the power unit.

[0043] S2. The rotating lower grinding disc assembly synchronously drives the driven grinding mechanism located inside the housing to rotate.

[0044] S3. The konjac block located inside the cover is first crushed by the crushing blade on the drive rod. The crushed konjac raw material falls between the female grinding tooth and the male grinding head in the drive rod and is initially ground into fine particles.

[0045] S4. After initial grinding, the raw material enters the area between the upper and lower grinding disc assemblies through the feed inlet of the upper grinding disc assembly via the opening at the bottom of the cover. Under the combined action of pressure and friction generated between the rotating lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly above it, the raw material undergoes a second fine grinding process through the grinding groove between the lower and upper grinding disc assemblies, gradually refining it and forming konjac powder with uniform particle size.

[0046] S5. The ground konjac powder is discharged between the upper and lower grinding disc components and falls into the inner cavity of the receiving structure.

[0047] S6. The rotating lower grinding disc assembly continuously pushes the konjac powder towards the discharge port of the receiving structure, so that the ground powder can be automatically discharged.

[0048] Beneficial Effects: One or more technical solutions provided in this invention have at least the following technical effects or advantages: 1. The lower grinding disc assembly located below the upper grinding disc assembly is driven to rotate by a power unit. The rotating lower grinding disc assembly synchronously drives the driven grinding mechanism located inside the cover to rotate. When konjac block raw material is added to the cover, the konjac block falls between the female grinding tooth and the male grinding head and is initially ground into fine particles. The raw material after initial grinding enters the part between the upper grinding disc assembly and the lower grinding disc assembly through the feed port of the upper grinding disc assembly through the opening at the bottom of the cover. Under the dual action of pressure and friction generated between the rotating lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly above it, the raw material is then finely ground a second time by the grinding groove between the lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly, and gradually refined to form konjac powder with uniform particle size.

[0049] 2. The female grinding teeth in the casing cooperate with the male grinding head in the driven grinding mechanism that rotates synchronously with the lower grinding disc assembly to achieve the initial grinding of the konjac block, and grind the konjac block into fine particles. This makes the initial particle size of the raw material particles tend to be uniform before the second fine grinding, so that the second grinding can process these raw material particles more evenly. This can effectively avoid over-grinding or under-grinding caused by differences in particle size during the grinding process of konjac block, and improve the grinding effect of konjac block.

[0050] 3. During the grinding process of konjac raw materials into powder, the rotating driven grinding mechanism also drives the pressure roller unit to rotate. This causes the rotating pressure roller unit to continuously squeeze a section of pump fluid hose located in the inner cavity of the cover, forming an effect similar to a peristaltic pump. This allows the coolant in cooling channel one and cooling channel two to circulate and cool the raw materials being ground between the upper and lower grinding disc assemblies, as well as between the female grinding teeth and the male grinding head. This effectively prevents the selenium element in the konjac raw materials from oxidizing and becoming ineffective due to the high temperature during grinding, thus reducing the loss of effective components in the raw materials.

[0051] 4. As the pressure roller unit rotates with the driven grinding mechanism, the stirring rod on the pressure roller unit also continuously stirs the connection between the grinding hood and the feed pipe. This effectively prevents the raw material particles after the initial grinding from forming agglomerates or bridging at the connection between the grinding hood and the feed pipe. This would prevent the raw material particles from agglomerating and causing blockages when they enter the narrowed feed pipe from the bottom opening of the grinding hood, resulting in interruption of feeding.

[0052] 5. After the pressure roller unit squeezes the pump fluid hose, it passes through the side wall protrusion. When the pressure roller in the pressure roller unit leaves the end with the cross-section of the side wall protrusion, under the elastic force of the return spring, the side wall protrusion quickly strikes the inner wall of the feed tube. As the pressure roller unit rotates, it achieves continuous striking of the inner wall of the feed tube. The vibration and impact force generated by the striking helps to further prevent the raw material from agglomerating or bridging at the connection between the grinding hood and the feed tube. This ensures the smooth grinding of the raw material and also avoids the waste of electricity caused by the grinding equipment running idle. Attached Figure Description

[0082] The power unit is a drive motor 210 that is installed and fixed at the bottom of the collection tank 101, wherein the drive motor 210 is preferably a servo motor;

[0083] The lower grinding disc assembly includes a lower grinding disc 203 disposed in the inner cavity of the collection tank 101 and located below the upper grinding disc 201.

[0084] The output end of the drive motor 210 rotates through the bottom of the collection tank 101 and is connected to the lower grinding disc 203.

[0085] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,as well as Figures 4 to 7The present invention provides a grinding device for processing selenium-enriched raw materials for processing selenium-enriched chewing gum. The cover also includes a material guide part fixedly connected to the feed inlet of the upper grinding disc 201, and the top of the material guide part is fixedly connected to the grinding cover 206.

[0086] The top of the grinding cover 206 is provided with a narrow section in the shape of a frustum;

[0087] A hopper 207 is connected to the top of the narrow section located at the top of the grinding cover 206. A top cover is detachably closed at the top opening of the hopper 207. The detachable connection method includes, but is not limited to, threaded connection or snap-fit ​​connection, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the top cover.

[0088] Cooling channel 212 is a spiral-shaped coolant flow channel located inside the side wall of the upper grinding disc 201.

[0089] Reference Figures 5 to 7 The present invention provides a grinding device for selenium-enriched raw materials for processing selenium-enriched chewing gum. The driving rod also includes a synchronous rotating shaft 213 located in the inner cavity of the cover, with its bottom end passing through the feed port of the upper grinding disc 201 in the upper grinding body and connected to the lower grinding disc assembly.

[0090] The top of the synchronous rotating shaft 213 extends into the inner cavity of the hopper 207, and the crushing blade 214 is connected to the side wall of the part of the synchronous rotating shaft 213 that extends into the inner cavity of the hopper 207.

[0091] The male grinding head 215 is located in the inner cavity of the narrow section of the grinding cover 206, and the grinding cover 206 is sleeved and fixed to the outer periphery of the synchronous rotating shaft 213;

[0092] The female grinding tooth 216 is disposed on the inner wall of the narrow section and surrounds the outer periphery of the male grinding head 215, and the side wall surface of the male grinding head 215 is provided with a male grinding tooth that works in conjunction with the female grinding tooth 216.

[0093] First, add konjac block raw material into the cover part. After the konjac block falls into the hopper 207 in the cover part, install the top cover at the top opening of the hopper 207.

[0094] Subsequently, the lower grinding disc assembly located below the upper grinding disc assembly is driven to rotate by the power unit. The rotating lower grinding disc assembly synchronously drives the driven grinding mechanism located inside the cover to rotate. The raw material inside the hopper 207 in the cover is first crushed by the crushing blade 214 in the drive rod. After being crushed, the konjac raw material falls between the female grinding tooth 216 and the male grinding head 215, and is then initially ground into fine particles by the female grinding tooth 216 and the male grinding tooth. The initially ground raw material then enters the area between the upper grinding disc assembly and the lower grinding disc assembly through the feed port of the upper grinding disc assembly through the opening at the bottom of the cover. Under the dual action of pressure and friction generated between the rotating lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly above it, the raw material is then finely ground a second time by the grinding groove between the lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly, gradually refining it and forming konjac powder with uniform particle size.

[0095] The ground konjac powder is discharged between the upper and lower grinding disc components and falls into the inner cavity of the collection tank 101 in the receiving structure. Subsequently, the rotating lower grinding disc component pushes the konjac powder continuously towards the reserved opening (i.e., the discharge port of the receiving structure) of the collection tank 101 through the pusher plate 209, so that the ground powder can fall into the guide pipe 102 through the reserved opening, realizing the automatic feeding process of the obtained konjac powder.

[0096] The female grinding tooth 216 in the casing cooperates with the male grinding head 215 in the driven grinding mechanism that rotates synchronously with the lower grinding disc assembly to achieve the initial grinding of konjac blocks, and grind the konjac blocks into fine particles. This makes the initial particle size of the raw material particles tend to be uniform before being finely ground in the second stage, so that the second grinding can process these raw material particles more evenly. This can effectively avoid over-grinding or under-grinding caused by differences in particle size during the grinding process of konjac blocks, and improve the grinding effect of konjac blocks.

The feeding part includes a feeding pipe 202 connected to the bottom opening of the grinding cover 206, and the bottom end of the feeding pipe 202 is connected to the top of the upper grinding disc 201, and the bottom opening of the feeding pipe 202 is connected to the feed port of the upper grinding disc 201.

[0100] The inner wall of the feed pipe 202 is provided with a C-shaped connecting groove that can accommodate the pumping hose 204. A section of the pumping hose 204 is located in the connecting groove in the inner cavity of the feed pipe 202, and the pumping hose 204 protrudes from the connecting groove.

[0101] The hose fitting also includes a side wall protrusion 219, the end of which is provided with a cross section. The side wall protrusion 219 is connected to the inner wall of the feed tube 202, and the side wall protrusion 219 corresponds to the position of the connecting groove. The pump hose 204 in the hose fitting is filled with coolant 218.

[0103] The other end of the pump hose 204 is inserted into the inside of the side wall of the grinding cover 206 and connected to the inlet end of the cold liquid flow channel 2.

[0104] During the grinding process of konjac raw materials into powder, the rotating driven grinding mechanism also drives the pressure roller unit to rotate. This causes the rotating pressure roller unit to continuously squeeze a section of pumping hose 204 located in the inner cavity of the cover, forming an effect similar to a peristaltic pump. This allows the coolant in the cooling channel 1 211 and cooling channel 212 to circulate and cool the raw materials being ground between the upper and lower grinding disc assemblies, as well as between the female grinding tooth 216 and the male grinding head 215. This effectively prevents the selenium element in the raw materials from oxidizing and becoming ineffective due to the high temperature during grinding, thus reducing the loss of effective components in the raw materials.

[0108] The guide sleeve 221 is integrally formed on the side wall of the synchronous rotating shaft 213. The side wall of the synchronous rotating shaft 213 has a side groove that is adapted to the telescopic square rod 222. The end of the telescopic square rod 222 away from the pressure roller 217 extends into the side groove, and the end of the return spring away from the telescopic square rod 222 is connected to the end of the side groove.

[0109] As the pressure roller unit rotates following the driven grinding mechanism, the stirring rod 223 on the pressure roller unit also continuously stirs the connection between the grinding cover 206 and the feed pipe 202. This effectively prevents the raw material particles after the initial grinding from forming agglomerates or bridging at the connection between the grinding cover 206 and the feed pipe 202. This would prevent the raw material particles from agglomerating and causing blockage when they enter the narrowed feed pipe 202 from the bottom opening of the grinding cover 206, resulting in interruption of feeding.

[0110] After the pressure roller unit squeezes the pump fluid hose 204, it passes the side wall protrusion 219. When the pressure roller 217 in the pressure roller unit leaves the end of the side wall protrusion 219 with the cross-section, under the elastic force of the return spring, the side wall protrusion 219 quickly strikes the inner wall of the feed tube 202. As the pressure roller unit rotates, it achieves continuous striking of the inner wall of the feed tube 202. The vibration and impact force generated by the striking helps to further prevent the raw materials from agglomerating or bridging at the connection between the grinding cover 206 and the feed tube 202. This ensures the smooth grinding of the raw materials and also avoids the waste of electricity caused by the grinding equipment running idle.

[0111] This invention provides a method for using a selenium-enriched raw material grinding device for processing selenium-enriched chewing gum, comprising the following steps:

[0112] S1. Add konjac block raw materials required for producing selenium-enriched chewing gum into the cover part. Then, turn on the power unit and drive the lower grinding disc assembly located below the upper grinding disc assembly to rotate through the power unit.

[0113] S2. The rotating lower grinding disc assembly synchronously drives the driven grinding mechanism located inside the housing to rotate.

[0114] S3. The konjac block located inside the cover is first crushed by the crushing blade 214 on the drive rod. The crushed konjac raw material falls between the female grinding tooth 216 and the male grinding head 215 in the drive rod and is initially ground into fine particles.

[0115] S4. After initial grinding, the raw material enters the area between the upper and lower grinding disc assemblies through the feed inlet of the upper grinding disc assembly via the opening at the bottom of the cover. Under the combined action of pressure and friction generated between the rotating lower grinding disc assembly and the upper grinding disc assembly above it, the raw material undergoes a second fine grinding process through the grinding groove between the lower and upper grinding disc assemblies, gradually refining it and forming konjac powder with uniform particle size.

[0116] S5. The ground konjac powder is discharged between the upper and lower grinding disc components and falls into the inner cavity of the receiving structure.

[0117] S6. The rotating lower grinding disc assembly continuously pushes the konjac powder towards the discharge port of the receiving structure, so that the ground powder can be automatically discharged.

[0118] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
