Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bird's nest processing technology, and in particular to a batching system for processing ready-to-eat bird's nest. Background Technology

[0002] Bird's nest is divided into dried bird's nest and ready-to-eat bird's nest. Dried bird's nest refers to dehydrated bird's nest that has been prepared into a cup shape. Before consumption, it needs to be soaked in water with sugar or other auxiliary substances added. Ready-to-eat bird's nest refers to canned or bowl-packaged bird's nest products that can be eaten directly after opening. The main ingredients of ready-to-eat bird's nest are bird's nest strips, water, goji berries, and sweeteners. Sweeteners come in various forms, such as rock sugar or syrup. In terms of physical form, bird's nest strips, rock sugar, and goji berries are solid substances, while water and liquid... Additives and syrups are liquid substances. In the processing of ready-to-eat bird's nest, the raw materials need to be stewed uniformly. For solid substances, stirring during stewing can quickly disperse them to different parts of the stewing pot. However, for liquid substances, due to differences in viscosity, a simple stirring process cannot quickly and evenly disperse the highly viscous liquid to all parts of the stewing pot, resulting in low processing efficiency of bird's nest. However, at present, the processing of ready-to-eat bird's nest basically still involves adding all the raw materials together to the stewing pot and then stirring and stewing them. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To better understand the technical content of this invention, a specific embodiment is provided below, and the invention will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] See Figures 1 to 4The present invention provides a ready-to-eat bird's nest processing ingredient system, comprising a stewing pot 1, a fixed sleeve 2, a rotating sleeve 3, a rotating drive mechanism, an ingredient cylinder 4, a main control unit 5, and a solid-liquid detection mechanism. The fixed sleeve 2 and the rotating sleeve 3 are both fitted around the stewing pot 1. The rotating sleeve 3 is slidably disposed above the fixed sleeve 2. The rotating drive mechanism drives the rotating sleeve 3 to rotate along the top surface of the fixed sleeve 2. The ingredient cylinder 4 is disposed on the top surface of the rotating sleeve 3, and its side wall is provided with a feeding pipe 6. One end of the feeding pipe 6 extends above the stewing pot 1, and a solenoid valve 7 is disposed on the feeding pipe 6. The solid-liquid detection mechanism includes a gantry frame 8, a hydraulic rod 9, a lifting plate 10, a first rotating motor 11, an active fan blade 12, a driven fan blade 13, and a rotating rod 14. The system includes a speed sensor 15 and a fixed plate 16. The gantry frame 8 is located above the feeding cylinder 4. The hydraulic rod 9 is located on the gantry frame 8, and its output shaft is connected to the top surface of the lifting plate 10. The first rotary motor 11 and the fixed plate 16 are located on the bottom surface of the lifting plate 10. The active fan blade 12 is located on the output shaft of the first rotary motor 11. One end of the rotating rod 14 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the fixed plate 16, and the other end is connected to the driven fan blade 13. The driven fan blade 13 is arranged opposite to the active fan blade 12. The speed sensor 15 is located on the rotating rod 14. The main control unit 5 is located on the outer wall of the feeding cylinder 4 and is electrically connected to the rotary drive mechanism, the solenoid valve 7, the hydraulic rod 9, the first rotary motor 11, and the speed sensor 15.

[0026] The ready-to-eat bird's nest processing ingredient system of the present invention is mainly used to distinguish between solid and liquid raw materials of bird's nest, and to classify the viscosity of the liquid. Based on the classification results, different ingredient feeding methods are selected. First, a rotating sleeve 3 and a fixed sleeve 2 are set from top to bottom around the outer periphery of the stewing pot 1. The rotating sleeve 3 can rotate around the stewing pot 1 above the fixed sleeve 2 under the drive of the rotating drive mechanism. The ingredient cylinder 4 is set above the rotating sleeve 3. The feeding pipe 6 on one side of the ingredient cylinder 4 extends to the stewing pot 1. After the raw material is placed on the ingredient cylinder 4, the solenoid valve 7 on the feeding pipe 6 is opened, and the raw material can be fed into the stewing pot 1. As needed, the rotating drive mechanism can be turned on to drive the ingredient cylinder 4 to rotate, thereby realizing rotary feeding and making the raw material evenly dispersed.

[0027] The solid-liquid detection mechanism installed above the mixing cylinder 4 can detect whether the raw material in the mixing cylinder 4 is solid or liquid. During detection, the hydraulic rod 9 on the gantry 8 drives the lifting plate 10 to descend. When the lifting plate 10 is completely submerged in the raw material, the first rotary motor 11 is turned on. The first rotary motor 11 can drive the active fan blade 12 to rotate. If the raw material is a liquid substance such as water, syrup, or other liquid additives, a water flow will be formed in the raw material. The water flow direction is towards the driven fan blade 13. At this time, the driven fan blade 13 will be driven by the water flow and rotate synchronously, driving the rotating rod 14 to rotate. Finally, the rotating rod 14 rotates. The speed sensor 15 on the 4th can collect certain speed information and send it to the main control unit 5. When the main control unit 5 receives the speed information, it determines that the raw material is a liquid substance. If the raw material is a solid substance, such as bird's nest strips or goji berries, the rotation of the active fan blade 12 will only cause the raw material to move irregularly and will not form a water flow. At this time, the speed sensor 15 will not collect speed information. When it is determined that the raw material is solid, the feeding method can be a stationary feeding method. When it is determined that the raw material is liquid, the rotary drive mechanism can be activated to perform rotary feeding, so that the liquid substance is more evenly dispersed, thereby improving the processing efficiency of ready-to-eat bird's nest.

[0028] When the raw material is detected to be liquid, the viscosity of the liquid can also be detected. After the first rotary motor 11 drives the active fan blade 12 to rotate and form a water flow, the rotation speed of the driven fan blade 13 will be different in different liquids due to the different viscosity of the liquid. The main control unit 5 can determine the viscosity of the liquid based on the different rotation speeds, thereby controlling the rotary drive mechanism to drive the rotary sleeve 3 and the feeding cylinder 4 to rotate at different speeds, so as to achieve feeding at different speeds, ensure the uniform dispersion of raw materials, and improve the efficiency of ready-to-eat bird's nest processing.

[0029] Preferably, the solid-liquid detection mechanism further includes a weighing sensor 17, which is embedded in the bottom surface of the batching cylinder 4, and the main control unit 5 is electrically connected to the weighing sensor 17.

[0030] The weighing sensor 17 can be used to detect the weight of the raw materials in the mixing cylinder 4. When adding raw materials to the mixing cylinder 4, the weighing sensor 17 can detect the change in weight in real time. When the weight no longer increases, it means that the raw materials have been added. At this time, the main control unit 5 can control the solid-liquid detection mechanism to perform detection.

[0031] Preferably, the bottom surface of the rotating sleeve 3 is provided with a groove 18, and the top surface of the fixed sleeve 2 is embedded in the groove 18.

[0032] The groove 18 can limit the rotation of the sleeve 3 and prevent the sleeve 3 from shifting during rotation.

[0033] Preferably, the rotary drive mechanism includes a second rotary motor 19, a gear 20, and a rack 21. The rack 21 is disposed on the inner wall of the rotary sleeve 3 and distributed circumferentially along the inner wall of the rotary sleeve 3. The second rotary motor 19 is disposed on the outer wall of the stew pot 1, and its output shaft is connected to the gear 20. The gear 20 meshes with the rack 21. The main control unit 5 is electrically connected to the second rotary motor 19. The rotary drive mechanism also includes a support plate 22, which is disposed on the outer wall of the stew pot 1. The second rotary motor 19 is disposed on the upper surface of the support plate 22.

[0034] When the rotating sleeve 3 is driven to rotate, the second rotating motor 19 drives the gear 20 to rotate. A rack 21 is provided circumferentially on the inner wall of the rotating sleeve 3. The gear 20 can drive the rack 21 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the rotating sleeve 3 and ultimately the rotation of the dispensing cylinder 4. The provided support plate 22 can provide an installation position for the second rotating motor 19 so that the second rotating motor 19 can be effectively connected to the rack 21.

[0035] Preferably, the solid-liquid detection mechanism further includes a bearing 23, which is embedded in the side wall of the fixed plate 16, and the end of the rotating rod 14 is connected to the bearing 23.

[0036] The bearing 23 is provided to provide rotational support for the end of the rotating rod 14.

[0037] Preferably, the feeding pipe 6 includes a fixed pipe 24, a corrugated telescopic pipe 25, a movable pipe 26, and a force-bearing plate 27. The fixed pipe 24 is connected to the feeding cylinder 4. The corrugated telescopic pipe 25 connects the fixed pipe 24 and the movable pipe 26. The movable pipe 26 is located above the stewing pot 1. The force-bearing plate 27 is disposed on the outer wall of the movable pipe 26. The solenoid valve 7 is disposed on the fixed pipe 24. An electric push rod 28 is disposed on the outer wall of the feeding cylinder 4. The output shaft of the electric push rod 28 is connected to the side wall of the force-bearing plate 27. The main control unit 5 is electrically connected to the electric push rod 28.

[0038] In order to further distribute the raw materials to various positions in the stew pot 1, the feeding pipe 6 is designed to be extendable. The electric push rod 28 can drive the moving pipe 26 to move through the force plate 27, thereby stretching and contracting the corrugated telescopic pipe 25. After the length of the entire feeding pipe 6 is extended, the raw materials can be fed to different positions in the stew pot 1.

[0039] After the solid-liquid test is completed, the solenoid valve 7 on the fixed tube 24 can be opened, and the raw materials will be transported to the stew pot 1 after passing through the fixed tube 24, the corrugated telescopic tube 25 and the moving tube 26 in sequence.

[0040] Preferably, it also includes a stirring mechanism, which includes a stirring motor 29, a stirring shaft 30 and stirring blades 31. The stirring motor 29 is disposed on the bottom surface of the stew pot 1, and its output shaft is connected to the bottom end of the stirring shaft 30. The stirring blades 31 are disposed on the side wall of the stirring shaft 30.

[0041] The stew pot 1 can stew the ingredients by stirring. When the stirring motor 29 is turned on, the stirring motor 29 can drive the stirring shaft 30 to rotate. The stirring fan blades 31 on the stirring shaft 30 can stir the ingredients in the stew pot 1 to make the ingredients evenly mixed.

[0042] Preferably, the side wall of the stew pot 1 is provided with a discharge pipe 32, the discharge pipe 32 passes through the fixed sleeve 2 and extends to the outside of the fixed sleeve 2, and a valve 33 is provided on the part of the discharge pipe 32 located outside the fixed sleeve 2.
