Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to equipment for processing zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), and more specifically, to an integrated machine for washing glutinous rice and zongzi leaves. Background Technology

[0002] Although the process of making zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) seems simple, each step requires careful attention. The main steps are: preparing the ingredients, soaking the glutinous rice, processing the bamboo leaves, wrapping the zongzi, and cooking the zongzi.

[0003] In the traditional process of washing glutinous rice, people are accustomed to repeatedly rinsing it until the water runs clear. However, this practice actually has several problems. First, the surface of glutinous rice is covered with a layer of "rice bran," which is rich in B vitamins and dietary fiber, and these components are extremely beneficial to human health. However, excessive rinsing will cause a large amount of these nutrients to be lost, affecting the nutritional value of the glutinous rice. Second, vigorously rubbing the glutinous rice not only damages the protective layer on the surface of the grains but may also increase the breakage rate of the grains, thus affecting the taste and texture of the cooked rice.

[0004] Currently, the cleaning of zongzi leaves is mostly done manually, one by one. This method is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also makes it difficult to ensure uniformity and thoroughness of the cleaning. With the development of mechanized production, some zongzi leaf cleaning equipment has appeared on the market, but most of these devices suffer from problems such as poor cleaning effect and serious water waste. For example, some equipment uses spray cleaning, which is difficult to completely remove stubborn stains adhering to the zongzi leaves; at the same time, a large amount of water used in the cleaning process is not effectively recycled and reused, exacerbating water waste.

[0005] In conclusion, to address the problems encountered in washing rice and bamboo leaves, a more efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly washing device needs to be developed. This device should be able to retain the nutrients in the glutinous rice, reduce the breakage rate of the rice grains, and improve washing efficiency. Simultaneously, it should be able to achieve uniform and thorough washing of the bamboo leaves and effectively recycle and reuse water resources. Summary of the Invention

Finally, the fastening member 23 tightens several edge cloths 21b. In this way, the glutinous rice is sealed in the storage device 2. Then, the storage device 2 containing the washed glutinous rice is placed in the soaking device 4 to soak the glutinous rice. The two semi-circular fastening covers can be detached to replace and clean the water-absorbing ball 22b.

[0055] The rice washing device 3 includes a rice washing box 31, a disturbance mechanism 32, and several hooks 33. The hooks 33 are fixed on the rice washing box 31 and evenly arranged. The fixing ring 21d can be hooked on the hooks 33 and the middle cloth 21a can be suspended in the rice washing box 31. The disturbance mechanism 32 includes a first driving member 32a and a disturbance head 32b. The first driving member 32a is a motor. The output end of the first driving member 32a is fixedly connected to the disturbance head 32b and drives the disturbance head 32b to disturb the middle cloth 21a. A water outlet 301 is provided on the bottom of the rice washing box 31.

[0056] When rinsing glutinous rice, first hook the fixing rings 21d on several edge cloth bodies 21b one by one onto the hooks 33, so that the storage cloth 21 is suspended in the rice washing box 31; then pour the glutinous rice onto the middle cloth body 21a, and then continuously pour water onto the glutinous rice through a tap, spray nozzle or manual pouring. At the same time, the first driving member 32a drives the agitator head 32b to rotate, and the agitator head 32b placed at the bottom of the middle cloth body 21a agitates the glutinous rice on it, so as to achieve a thorough cleaning of the glutinous rice and avoid damaging the glutinous rice; the water flowing into the rice washing box 31 after rinsing flows into the water filter box through the water outlet 301.

[0057] The immersion device 4 includes an immersion tank 41, a positioning component 42, and a rotating component 43. The positioning component 42 includes a fixed base 42a, a rotating rod 42b, and a positioning head 42c. The fixed base 42a is fixed on the immersion tank 41. One end of the rotating rod 42b is rotatably connected to the fixed base 42a, and the other end of the rotating rod 42b is fixedly connected to the positioning head 42c. The positioning head 42c is bowl-shaped and has a retaining ring 42d on its inner wall that engages with the fixed mesh 21c. The rotating component 43 includes a second driving member 43a and a rotating head 43b. The second driving member 43a is a motor, and its output end is fixedly connected to the rotating head 43b.

At this time, the retaining rings 21d are engaged with the retaining teeth 23a on the fastening member 23 to restrict the fastening member 23 and ensure that the fastening member 23 does not easily slip off the edge of the cloth 21b; after the storage device 2 is fixed, the second driving member 43a drives the rotating head and drives the storage device 2 to rotate. By adjusting and raising the second driving member, the storage device 2 can be fixed. The rotation speed of component 43a causes the water in the glutinous rice to be shaken out. By adjusting and reducing the rotation speed of the second drive component 43a, the slow rotation of the storage device 2 is maintained, so that the water in the glutinous rice can be evenly distributed in the glutinous rice ball, making it less likely for water to concentrate at the bottom of the storage cloth 21 and affect the texture of the glutinous rice. The water-absorbing component 22 is buried in the middle of the glutinous rice ball. Water enters the interior through the water-permeable holes on the receiving ball 22a and is absorbed by the water-absorbing ball 22b, so that the center part of the glutinous rice ball is less likely to accumulate water and affect the texture of the glutinous rice. With this setting, the glutinous rice ball in the storage cloth 21 can maintain good moisture, so that the glutinous rice can reach the excellent moisture specifications for wrapping zongzi.

Water from the filter tank 111 is pumped into the soaking tank 61 by the water pump 82 to soak the bamboo leaves, thereby initially cleaning the foreign objects on the bamboo leaves and making it easier to remove the foreign objects from the bamboo leaves later. The isolation mesh plate 63b has an undulating structure, which allows the bottom of the bamboo leaves to have a larger contact area with the water, so as to achieve full soaking of the bamboo leaves. Moreover, the isolation plate is designed in this way so that when several bamboo leaves are stacked together, there can be larger gaps between the bamboo leaves, which further increases the contact area between the bamboo leaves and the water, and achieves full soaking of the bamboo leaves. The isolation piece 63 can be removed for cleaning and replacement.

[0061] The scrubbing device 7 includes a support frame 71, a water storage box 72, a mesh plate 73, a fixing block 74, and a scrubbing mechanism 75.

After washing the garbage, the wastewater enters the lower space. The wastewater in the lower space enters the wastewater tank 141 through the circulation pipe 142 for recycling and storage, and can be uniformly treated and discharged. The conical mesh bag 132a is not easy to clog the upper space when holding garbage, so that water can flow into the lower space more easily. The filter plate 132b filters the garbage and achieves stratification of the garbage, which facilitates garbage treatment. The soaking tank can be connected to the wastewater tank 141 through the pipeline, so that the wastewater in the soaking tank can be discharged into the wastewater tank 141 through the pipeline.

[0070] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any ordinary changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
