[0002] Rice is one of the staple foods for people. It contains protein, fat, various vitamins and minerals, which can replenish the body's energy. In order to improve the convenience of eating rice, self-heating rice has emerged. It is made by heating cooked rice flour and then re-granulating it. However, the taste is poor and it is only suitable for filling the stomach.

[0003] Therefore, invention patents such as the mixed grain rice convenience food and its preparation method disclosed in publication number CN111713634A and the purple rice convenience rice and its preparation method disclosed in authorization announcement number CN113812567B have emerged. These inventions improve the convenience of rice and enhance its taste by mixing rice with other materials.

[0004] However, existing instant rice production processes are inefficient and require complex production lines, resulting in reduced nutritional content and even the addition of chemical components to enhance the taste, which can negatively impact health and make the rice less practical. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a rice homogenization particle size preparation process and equipment to improve these issues. Summary of the Invention

After each feeding, the first piston 11 repressurizes the interior of the cooking chamber 2 to ensure the vegetable juice quickly penetrates the raw materials. The interior of the cooking chamber 2 is then heated by the heating element 6. Simultaneously, the first motor 8 is activated, which, via the lead screw 7, causes the slider 5 to raise or lower the lifting frame 4, adjusting the height of the heating element 6 to heat different areas within the cooking chamber 2. The heating assembly on the second piston 12 heats the raw materials at the bottom, cooking them. Once cooked, a set of mesh plates 18 is rotated, causing the bottom mesh plate 18 to align with the top mesh plate 18. The mesh openings overlap, and the first hydraulic cylinder 9 extends, causing the first piston 11 to press downwards on the cooked raw material, forcing it through the mesh openings of the two sets of mesh plates 18. Then, the first hydraulic cylinder 9 retracts, returning the first piston 11 to its original position. The second hydraulic cylinder 10 then extends, causing the second piston 12 to press upwards on the cooked raw material, forcing it through the mesh openings of the mesh plate 18 again. This process is repeated to uniformly mix the raw material. Then, the right side of the two sets of bidirectional hydraulic arms 32 retracts, followed by the retraction of the two sets of unidirectional hydraulic arms 35. The left side of the two sets of bidirectional hydraulic arms 32 extends, moving the conveyor belt 37 below the cooking chamber 2. The first hydraulic cylinder 9 then extends, causing the first piston 11 to press the mixed raw material inside the cooking chamber 2, making it... The raw material falls to the top of the conveyor belt 37. The fifth motor 38 is turned on, and the conveyor belt 37 is driven from left to right by two sets of drive shafts 33. At the same time, the left side of the two sets of bidirectional hydraulic arms 32 retracts, and the right side of the two sets of bidirectional hydraulic arms 32 extends, moving the right side of the conveyor belt 37 above the extruder 22. The raw material is discharged into the extruder 22 through the conveyor belt 37. The extruder 22 extrudes the raw material into strips and discharges them into the guide tube 23. At the same time, the fourth motor 25 is turned on, driving the crusher blade 27 to rotate and crush the strip-shaped raw material into granules. At the same time, the water inlet valve 30 is connected to the water source, and water is atomized and sprayed into the guide tube 23 through multiple sets of atomizing nozzles 29. Air is discharged into the guide tube 23 by the fan 24.The granular raw material can be discharged from the bottom of the guide tube 23.
