Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of food processing crushing equipment technology, specifically to a high-efficiency ultrafine crushing system. Background Technology
[0002] Food processing refers to the processing of grains, feed, vegetable oils and sugars, slaughtering and meat processing, aquatic product processing, and the processing of vegetables, fruits, and nuts, as well as tuber processing, dehydrated vegetable processing, and canned vegetable processing, all using agricultural, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery products as raw materials. It is a type of agricultural product processing industry in a broad sense. For example, the production of tomato sauce requires crushing washed tomatoes to achieve the desired result. However, existing tomato crushing equipment produces inconsistent crushing quality, requiring some tomatoes to be crushed a second time to meet requirements. Furthermore, the high-speed rotation and friction of the crushing equipment cause the crushing blades in contact with the tomatoes to heat the crushed tomatoes, leading to discoloration and affecting sales. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a highly efficient ultrafine crushing system that effectively solves the problems of existing crushing equipment being unable to control the crushing quality, and the friction generated by the high-speed rotation of the crushing blades causing temperature rise that de-heats tomatoes and affects sales.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0005] This invention provides a high-efficiency ultrafine crushing system, including a crushing body and a crushing chamber mounted on its surface, and further including multiple sets of strip-shaped protrusions evenly distributed on the inner wall of the crushing chamber, the strip-shaped protrusions being inclined; and a crushing mechanism for crushing tomatoes, including a motor fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the crushing body, the output end of the motor being fixedly connected to a drive tooth, the drive tooth meshing with a driven tooth ring, the inner wall of the driven tooth ring being fixedly connected to an outer crushing disc, the inner part of the outer crushing disc having an inner crushing disc, both the upper and lower ends of the outer crushing disc being rotatably connected to sealing covers, and the outer wall of the outer crushing disc having multiple sets of strip-shaped grooves evenly spaced.
[0006] Furthermore, the upper part of the crushing chamber is connected to a water inlet, and the end of the water inlet is connected to a corrugated hose. The inner wall of the crushing chamber has multiple sets of cavities at equal intervals, and the cavities are connected to the external environment through air inlets.
[0007] Furthermore, a positioning rod is rotatably connected to the upper end of the drive tooth, and the end of the positioning rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the crushing chamber.
[0008] Furthermore, the outer crushing disc is rotatably connected to the inside of the crushing chamber, and a cooling chamber connected to the external environment is provided inside the outer crushing disc for cooling the outer crushing disc.
[0009] Furthermore, the inner crushing disc has a vertical groove inside, and the inner wall of the vertical groove is connected to multiple sets of air outlets, which are located on the surface of the inner crushing disc.
[0010] Furthermore, the sealing cover located at the upper end of the outer crushing disc is connected to the lower end of the corrugated hose, and the upper end of the sealing cover is elastically connected to the inner wall of the crushing chamber through multiple sets of equidistant connecting springs.
[0011] Furthermore, the strip groove is inclined, and the strip groove corresponds one-to-one with the strip protrusion, and the strip groove and the strip protrusion mesh with each other, with the upper end of the strip groove contacting the lower end of the strip protrusion first.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a cleaning component for cleaning the surface of the inner crushing disc, including multiple sets of support rods and piston rods fixedly connected to the inner wall of the crushing chamber. The support rods are located below the outer crushing disc, and the end closest to the inner crushing disc is fixedly connected to the inner crushing disc. The inside of the support rods is provided with a circular groove that communicates with the cavity and the vertical groove.
[0013] Furthermore, the piston rod is inserted into the cavity, and the upper end of the piston rod is fixedly connected to the sealing cover located at the lower end of the outer crushing disc.
[0014] The technical solution provided by this invention has the following advantages compared with the known prior art:
[0015] I. This invention, through its specially designed crushing mechanism, enables the driven toothed ring fitted on the surface of the outer crushing disc to rotate synchronously when crushing tomatoes. This rotation, in turn, causes the outer crushing disc, which works in conjunction with the inner crushing disc, to rotate synchronously, thus crushing the tomatoes. Furthermore, the intermittent raising and lowering of the outer crushing disc, achieved by the combination of the strip-shaped protrusions and the strip-shaped grooves, enhances the crushing effect and facilitates the rapid discharge of the processed food. Simultaneously, the inclusion of a cooling chamber allows for the injection of cooling water to cool the outer crushing disc, preventing discoloration of the crushed tomatoes.
[0016] Second, by setting up a cleaning component, the present invention can drive the lifting rod to slide up and down synchronously inside the cavity when the outer crushing disc is intermittently raised and lowered. This compresses the gas inside the cavity and enters the interior of the vertical groove through the circular groove, and then discharges it through the air outlet connected to the vertical groove, blowing off the tomatoes stuck to the surface of the inner crushing disc and preventing accumulation.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments.
[0029] Example: High-efficiency ultrafine crushing system, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, it includes a crushing body 1 and a crushing chamber 2 installed on its surface. By setting the crushing chamber 2, the tomatoes to be processed can be crushed and discharged inside it, and the crushing range can be controlled to avoid affecting other parts. The upper part of the crushing chamber 2 is connected to a water inlet 201. The upper end of the water inlet 201 is connected to a negative pressure device, and the other end of the negative pressure device is connected to a water source through a water pipe. By setting the water inlet 201, water source for cooling can be delivered through the negative pressure device.
[0030] The inlet 201 is connected to a corrugated hose 202 at its end. The corrugated hose 202 allows for easy vertical movement of the outer crushing disc 305 due to its stretchable and contractible properties, preventing leakage of the water source used for cooling. The inner wall of the crushing chamber 2 has multiple cavities 203 equidistantly arranged, and each cavity 203 is connected to the external environment through an air inlet. The cavity 203 facilitates the entry of external gas, allowing the piston rod 403 to compress the gas inside the cavity 203 during its lifting and lowering process. It is worth noting that a one-way valve is installed inside the air inlet to prevent the gas inside the cavity 203 from being discharged to the outside through the air inlet during the downward pressing of the piston rod 403.
[0031] It also includes strip-shaped protrusions 204, which are provided in multiple sets and are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the crushing chamber 2. The strip-shaped protrusions 204 are inclined. By providing multiple sets of inclined strip-shaped protrusions 204, they can cooperate with the strip grooves 308 on the outer surface of the outer crushing disc 305, so that the outer crushing disc 305 can be intermittently raised and lowered. This speeds up the crushing of tomatoes and also increases the contact area between the outer crushing disc 305 and the inner crushing disc 306, making the crushing of tomatoes more delicate and the effect better.
[0032] Combined with appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 8The crushing mechanism 3 for crushing tomatoes ensures both crushing efficiency and quality. It includes a motor 301 fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the crushing body 1, providing power for tomato crushing. A drive gear 302 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 301, allowing it to rotate synchronously under the action of the motor 301, driving a driven gear ring 304 meshing with it to rotate synchronously. A positioning rod 303 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the drive gear 302, and the end of the positioning rod 303 is fixedly connected to the surface of the crushing chamber 2. The positioning rod 303 limits the drive gear 302, ensuring it does not wobble during rotation.
[0033] The drive tooth 302 is meshed with a driven tooth ring 304. By setting the driven tooth ring 304, it can cooperate with the drive tooth 302 to achieve synchronous rotation. An outer crushing disc 305 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the driven tooth ring 304. The outer crushing disc 305 is rotatably connected to the inside of the crushing chamber 2. By setting the outer crushing disc 305, it can start to rotate under the action of the driven tooth ring 304 and cooperate with the inner crushing disc 306 to crush the tomatoes that enter the crushing chamber 2.
[0034] The outer crushing disc 305 has a cooling chamber 3051 connected to the external environment, which is used to cool the outer crushing disc 305. (See attached diagram.) Figure 7 This allows for the cooling of the high-speed rotating outer crushing disc 305, preventing it from heating up due to friction during rotation and causing the crushed tomatoes to discolor. An inner crushing disc 306 is located inside the outer crushing disc 305. This inner disc works in conjunction with the outer crushing disc 305 to crush the tomatoes while ensuring the quality of the crushed tomatoes. It is worth noting that the inner crushing disc 306 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the crushing chamber 2.
[0035] The inner crushing disc 306 has a vertical groove inside, and the inner wall of the vertical groove is connected to multiple sets of air outlets 3061. The air outlets 3061 are opened on the surface of the inner crushing disc 306. By opening the vertical groove and the air outlets 3061, the gas can be transported and discharged easily, so that the gas discharged from the air outlets 3061 can blow away the tomatoes that fall on the surface of the inner crushing disc 306, preventing the tomatoes from accumulating on the surface of the inner crushing disc 306. It is worth noting that the air outlets 3061 are opened at an angle downward, that is, the gas blown out from inside is blown out at an angle downward, so as to better act on the surface of the inner crushing disc 306.
[0036] The outer crushing disc 305 is rotatably connected to both its upper and lower ends with sealing caps 307. These sealing caps 307 seal both ends of the outer crushing disc 305, preventing leakage of cooling water from the cooling chamber 3051. The sealing cap 307 at the upper end of the outer crushing disc 305 is connected to the lower end of the corrugated hose 202. This connection allows external cooling water to be injected into the cooling chamber 3051. Furthermore, the sealing cap 307 at the upper end of the outer crushing disc 305 facilitates the injection of external cooling water into the cooling chamber 3051. The cover 307 ensures the normal rotation of the outer crushing disc 305 and seals the cooling chamber 3051. It is worth noting that the lower sealing cover 307 has the same structure as the upper sealing cover 307 (not shown in the figure due to the perspective). The difference is that the lower corrugated hose 202 is connected to the external drain pipe to replace the water inside the cooling chamber 3051, ensuring that the temperature of the outer crushing disc 305 does not rise and that the color of the crushed tomatoes does not change.
[0037] Furthermore, a temperature probe is installed inside the corrugated hose 202 at the lower end, and the temperature probe is electrically connected to a controller. The controller is also electrically connected to the drain valve and negative pressure device installed at the outlet of the drain pipe. When the temperature probe detects that the temperature of the cooling water inside the cooling chamber 3051 has risen to its preset value, it will automatically send an electrical signal to the controller. After receiving the electrical signal, the controller will control the solenoid valve to open and start draining the water inside the cooling chamber 3051. At the same time, it will start the negative pressure device to draw in new cooling water and inject it into the cooling chamber 3051, thereby cooling the external crushing disc 305.
[0038] The upper end of the sealing cover 307 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the crushing chamber 2 through multiple sets of equidistant connecting springs. By setting multiple sets of connecting springs 307, the outer crushing disc 305 can be quickly reset by generating a reaction force when compressed, and the upper sealing cover 307 can be restricted at the same time. It is worth noting that the connecting springs are equipped with elastic telescopic rods inside, which are used to limit the upper sealing cover.
[0039] The outer wall of the outer crushing disc 305 is provided with multiple sets of strip grooves 308 at equal intervals. The strip grooves 308 are inclined and correspond one-to-one with the strip protrusions 204. The strip grooves 308 and the strip protrusions 204 mesh with each other. The upper end of the strip groove 308 contacts the lower end of the strip protrusion 204 first. By setting the strip grooves 308, when the outer crushing disc 305 rotates, the upper end of the strip groove 308 contacts the lower end of the strip protrusion 204, causing the rotating outer crushing disc 305 to start to rise and compress the connecting spring. When the lower end of the strip groove 308 separates from the upper end of the strip protrusion 204, the outer crushing disc 305 will start to reset under the reaction force generated by the connecting spring.
[0040] Combined with appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 8 It also includes a cleaning component 4 for cleaning the surface of the inner crushing disc 306 to prevent excessive tomato buildup on the surface of the inner crushing disc 306 from hindering crushing and ensuring the efficiency of tomato processing; it includes multiple sets of support rods 401 and piston rods 403 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the crushing chamber 2. The support rods 401 are located below the outer crushing disc 305, and the end near the inner crushing disc 306 is fixedly connected to the inner crushing disc 306. By setting the support rods 401, the position of the inner crushing disc 306 can be fixed, and it can be ensured that it will not rotate synchronously with the outer crushing disc 305 while it is rotating, thus avoiding the phenomenon that the tomatoes cannot be crushed.
[0041] The support rod 401 has a circular groove 402 inside that communicates with the cavity 203 and the vertical groove. By setting the circular groove 402, the cavity 203 can be connected to the vertical groove, ensuring that the compressed gas inside the cavity 203 can enter the interior of the vertical groove through the circular groove 402. The piston rod 403 is inserted inside the cavity 203, and the upper end of the piston rod 403 is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 307 located at the lower end of the outer crushing disc 305. By setting the piston rod 403, when the outer crushing disc 305 is intermittently raised and lowered, the sealing cover 307 located at the lower end can drive the piston rod 403 to reciprocate inside the cavity 203, so as to compress the gas entering the cavity 203 into the interior of the vertical groove and blow it out from the air outlet 3061.
[0042] Specifically, when crushing tomatoes, the external cooling water source is first drawn by starting the negative pressure equipment and discharged into the cooling chamber 3051 through the water inlet 201 and the corrugated hose 202 connected to the water inlet 201. The tomatoes are then fed into the crushing chamber 2 by the feeding mechanism installed on the crushing body 1. Then, the motor 301 is started, which drives the driven gear ring 304, which is meshed with the drive gear 302, to rotate synchronously. This causes the outer crushing disc 305, which is fixedly connected to the driven gear ring 304, to rotate synchronously and begin to crush the tomatoes that have entered the crushing chamber 2 in conjunction with the inner crushing disc 306.
[0043] When the outer crushing disc 305 rotates to crush the tomato, the strip groove 308 on the outer surface of the outer crushing disc 305 will start to contact and engage with the strip protrusion 204, causing the outer crushing disc 305 to start to move up and down, which speeds up the crushing of the tomato and makes the tomato crushed more fine, ensuring the quality of the crushed tomato.
[0044] As the outer crushing disc 305 continues to rotate, the increased temperature on its surface is transferred to the interior of the cooling water. When the temperature probe inside the corrugated hose 202 at the lower end of the outer crushing disc 305 detects that the temperature of the cooling water source inside the cooling chamber 3051 has reached its preset value, it will send an electrical signal to the controller. After receiving the electrical signal, the controller will control the solenoid valve to open and begin to discharge the water source inside the cooling chamber 3051. At the same time, it will start the negative pressure device to draw in new cooling water and inject it into the interior of the cooling chamber 3051, thereby cooling the outer crushing disc 305 and ensuring that the tomatoes produced will not change color.
