Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of candy processing, and in particular relates to a soluble sugar filtering device for candy food processing. Background Art

[0002] Candy is a kind of confectionery and pastry, referring to a snack with sugar as the main ingredient. Hard candy is made by high-temperature boiling. It has a high dry solid content, about 97% or more. The sugar is hard and brittle. There are fruit-flavored, cream-flavored, cool-flavored, white-controlled, mixed-sand and baked hard candies. In the candy processing process, hard candy requires a process of dissolving and filtering. In the process of dissolving hard candy, sugar and water need to be added to the starch syrup.

[0003] The existing filtering device usually sets a filter screen at the discharge position at the bottom of the filter tank to filter the mixed dissolved sugar.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] Example 1: Figure 1-8 As shown, a sugar dissolving filtering device for candy food processing of the present invention comprises a filtering tank 1, a conical filter screen 11 is installed inside the filtering tank 1, an arc-shaped lower cover 12 matching the conical filter screen 11 is installed at the lower end of the filtering tank 1, a feeding pipe 13 is installed at the upper end of the filtering tank 1, a driving motor 14 is installed at the upper end of the filtering tank 1, a rotating plate 15 rotatably connected to the filtering tank 1 is transmission-connected to the driving motor 14, a mounting shaft 16 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the rotating plate 15, a plurality of inner scrapers 17 matching the conical filter screen 11 are installed at the lower end of the mounting shaft 16, electromagnets 18 are fixedly installed on both sides of the plurality of inner scrapers 17, a plurality of magnet blocks 19 magnetically connected to the electromagnets 18 are rotatably installed inside the filtering tank 1, the magnet blocks 19 are fixedly connected to outer scrapers 20 matching the conical filter screen 11, the plurality of electromagnets 18 are electrically connected to the power supply equipment together, an upper and lower mixing mechanism is slidably installed on the upper ends of the plurality of inner scrapers 17, and a left and right mixing mechanism is installed around the mounting shaft 16.

[0028] A heating device is installed on the outside of the filter tank 1 to heat the syrup during the sugar dissolving process. When in use, the heating device is started and the molten sugar is added from the feed pipe 13 into the filter tank 1. After the addition is completed, the drive motor 14 is started to drive the rotating plate 15 to rotate, and then the mounting shaft 16 and the inner scraper 17 are driven to rotate. The inner scraper 17 is used to scrape the inner wall of the conical filter screen 11 to prevent the thick syrup from accumulating and clogging at the bottom. The electromagnet 18 will generate magnetic attraction after being powered by the power supply device, so when the inner scraper 17 rotates, it will drive the electromagnet 18 to rotate, which can also absorb the fine impurities containing iron in the syrup to avoid These pass through the conical filter screen 11, and at the same time, the magnet block 19 can be attracted by the electromagnet 18, thereby driving the magnet block 19 and the outer scraper 20 to rotate. In this way, the rotating outer scraper 20 scrapes the conical filter screen 11 to prevent the outer side of the conical filter screen 11 from adhering to the outer side of the conical filter screen 11 and clogging the filter holes after filtering out the syrup, thereby improving the filtration efficiency of the conical filter screen 11; at the same time, during the rotation of the inner scraper 17, the upper and lower mixing mechanisms will be driven to rotate, and then the molten sugar will be mixed by the rotation of the upper and lower mixing mechanisms. At the same time, the left and right mixing mechanisms rotate through the mounting shaft 16 to mix the molten sugar to improve the mixing efficiency, thereby improving the filtration efficiency of the molten sugar.

[0029] The present invention can synchronously scrape the conical filter screen inside and outside by rotating the inner scraper and the outer scraper together, which can prevent the syrup from adhering to the outer side of the conical filter screen and causing blockage of the conical filter screen when the inner scraper is scraping on one side. At the same time, the contact area between the filter screen and the dissolved sugar is increased through the conical filter screen, thereby improving the filtration efficiency. The inner scraper can also drive the upper and lower mixing mechanisms to play a role of upper and lower mixing, thereby preventing the heavier and higher concentration dissolved sugar from accumulating on the lower side of the filter tank and causing uneven dissolved sugar concentration.

[0030] Embodiment 2: Further improvement is made on the basis of Embodiment 1, the upper and lower mixing mechanisms include a rectangular mounting plate 30 fixedly connected to the rotating plate 15, a threaded rod 31 is rotatably connected to the side of the rectangular mounting plate 30, a bevel gear 32 is installed on the side of the threaded rod 31 away from the rectangular mounting plate 30, a mounting groove matching the bevel gear 32 is opened on the side of the filter tank 1, upper meshing teeth 33 and lower meshing teeth 34 matching the bevel gear 32 are formed inside the mounting groove, the threaded rod 31 is threadedly connected to a sliding plate 35 slidably connected to the inner scraper 17, and a lifting assembly is installed at the lower end of the sliding plate 35.

[0031] When the rotating plate 15 drives the rectangular mounting plate 30 and the threaded rod 31 to rotate, the bevel gear 32 will mesh with the upper meshing teeth 33 or the lower meshing teeth 34, and the threaded rod 31 will rotate forward through the meshing of the bevel gear 32 and the upper meshing teeth 33, thereby causing the sliding plate 35 slidably connected to the inner scraper 17 to approach the inner wall of the filter tank 1, until the bevel gear 32 is released from the meshing with the upper meshing teeth 33, and the lifting assembly abuts against the inner wall of the filter tank 1, and then during the abutment process, the lifting assembly is tested against the inner wall, and then continued rotation will cause the bevel gear 32 to mesh with the lower meshing teeth 34, thereby causing the threaded rod 31 to reverse and drive the sliding baffle plate 35 to approach the mounting shaft 16, thereby stirring the molten sugar during the sliding process of the lifting assembly, and at the same time driving the lifting assembly to move and lift the molten sugar at different positions for upward transportation.

[0032] The lifting assembly includes two fixed cylinders 36 rotatably connected to the sliding plate 35, and a telescopic cylinder 37 is sealed and slidably connected to the upper and lower parts of the fixed cylinder 36. The lower end of the telescopic cylinder 37 is fixedly connected to a sliding member 38 slidably connected to the inner scraper 17, and the sliding plate 35 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 39 located in the center of the fixed cylinder 36. The rotating shaft 39 extends into the fixed cylinder 36 and is installed with a spiral transmission plate 40. The upper end of the rotating shaft 39 is fixedly connected to a first gear 41, and the rotating plate 15 is provided with a gear groove 42 matching the first gear 41, and a discharge port is provided at the upper part of the fixed cylinder 36.

[0033] When the sliding plate 35 slides, it will drive the fixed cylinder 36 and the telescopic cylinder 37 to move, thereby causing the sliding member 38 to slide inside the inner scraper 17, and then driving the telescopic cylinder 37 to slide up and down by tilting the inner scraper 17. At the same time, during the sliding process of the fixed cylinder 36, the first gear 41 will be driven to slide, thereby causing the first gear 41 to mesh with the gear groove 42 and rotate during the sliding process, driving the spiral transmission plate 40 to rotate, and transporting the dissolved sugar inside the fixed cylinder 36 upward, thereby causing the dissolved sugar at the bottom of the telescopic cylinder 37 to enter the fixed cylinder 36 and be transported upward when the first gear 41 rotates forward next time. In this way, the dissolved sugar near the tilt height of the inner scraper 17 can be transported upward, and the concentrated sugar deposited at the bottom can be mixed upward, thereby improving the mixing efficiency. When the first gear 41 rotates in the opposite direction, the dissolved sugar inside the fixed cylinder 36 can also be mixed by the rotating spiral transmission plate 40.

[0034] The sliding member 38 includes a cross 43 fixedly connected to the lower end of the telescopic cylinder 37, a T-shaped block 44 fixedly connected to the lower end of the cross 43, a cross groove 45 is provided in the middle of the inner scraper 17, a first inclined surface 46 is provided in the lower groove of the cross groove 45, and second inclined surfaces 47 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the inner scraper 17. The gap formed by the cross 43 and the telescopic cylinder 37 facilitates the entry of the raw materials at the bottom, and the cooperation of the T-shaped block 44 and the cross groove 45 enables the telescopic cylinder 37 to slide up and down during the radial sliding process, and the first inclined surface 46 and the second inclined surface 47 can prevent the molten sugar from being stored inside the cross groove 45.

[0035] A hollow plate 48 is fixedly connected between the two fixed cylinders 36, and a side wall scraper 49 is slidably connected to the hollow plate 48. The side wall scraper 49 is fixedly connected to two limit plates 50, and a plurality of springs 55 are installed between the limit plates 50 and the hollow plate 48. The hollow plate 48 is fixedly installed with an installation box 56 that is sealingly and slidably connected to the side wall scraper 49.

[0036] The hollow plate 48 can stir the dissolved sugar during the sliding process. At the same time, when the fixed cylinder 36 approaches, the spring 55 makes the side wall scraper 49 abut against the inner wall of the filter tank 1 in the natural state. Then, as the fixed cylinder 36 continues to move, the force of the side wall scraper 49 on the filter tank 1 will increase. The rotating fixed cylinder 36 drives the side wall scraper 49 to scrape continuously. Then, when the fixed cylinder 36 moves toward the installation shaft 16, the side wall scraper 49 will also abut against the inside of the filter tank 1 until the spring 55 is in the natural state and the side wall scraper 49 is away from the inner wall of the filter tank 1.

[0037] The left and right mixing mechanisms include a plurality of stirring rods 51, which are evenly fixedly connected to the periphery of the mounting shaft 16, and are cross-arranged on both sides of the upper and lower mixing mechanisms. When the stirring rods 51 rotate along with the mounting shaft 16, the molten sugar is stirred and mixed. At the same time, the stirring rods 51 are located between the two upper and lower mixing mechanisms, so that the two fixed cylinders 36 are in contact with the stirring rods 51 when they are extremely close to each other.

[0038] A gear ring 52 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the rotating plate 15 , a driving gear 53 meshing with the gear ring 15 is rotatably connected inside the filter tank 1 , and an output end of the driving motor 14 is drivingly connected to the driving gear 53 .

[0039] When the output end of the driving motor 14 rotates, it drives the driving gear 53 to rotate, and further drives the gear ring 52 and the rotating plate 15 to rotate.

[0040] The lower side of the outer scraper 20 is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped scraper rod 54 that matches the inner wall of the arc-shaped lower cover 12. When the arc-shaped scraper rod 54 rotates with the outer scraper 20, the arc-shaped lower cover 12 will be scraped.

[0041] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with the technology may modify or change the above embodiments without violating the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes made by those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field without departing from the spirit and technical ideas disclosed by the present invention should still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
