Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wheat production, in particular to equipment for producing stabilized wheat germ and a working method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Wheat germ enzyme inactivation is an important step in the wheat germ processing. The main purpose is to inactivate the enzymes in the wheat germ through certain methods, thereby extending the shelf life of the wheat germ and maintaining its nutritional content and quality stability. Wheat germ contains a variety of enzymes, such as lipoxygenase, protease, etc. The presence of enzymes will not only cause the deterioration of the wheat germ itself, but also provide conditions for the reproduction of microorganisms. Enzyme inactivation can effectively inhibit the growth of microorganisms, thereby ensuring the safety of wheat germ products. As people pay more and more attention to food safety, the requirements for wheat germ enzyme inactivation have become more stringent;

[0003] After searching, the applicant found that a Chinese patent disclosed "an enzyme inactivation device for wheat germ slices", and its publication (announcement) number is "CN218043714U". This patent mainly heats the wheat germ by pouring it into a discharge mesh frame. Only the wheat germ in the discharge mesh frame can be processed each time, resulting in low production efficiency. Therefore, we propose a more efficient device for producing stabilized wheat germ and a working method thereof. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a device for producing stabilized wheat germ and a working method thereof.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an apparatus for producing stabilized wheat germ and a working method thereof, comprising a processing box, wherein two transmission wheels are rotatably connected inside the processing box, and surfaces of the two transmission wheels are commonly connected to a transmission belt for transmission, an upper end surface of the processing box is fixedly connected to a storage hopper, and a feed wheel is rotatably connected inside the storage hopper, a first fixed block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the processing box, a second fixed block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the processing box, a hot air box is commonly fixedly connected to the second fixed block and the inner wall of the processing box, a filter is commonly fixedly connected to the first fixed block and the inner wall of the processing box, and an ultraviolet lamp is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the processing box.

[0006] As a further solution of the present invention: a first servo motor is fixedly connected to the front of the storage hopper, and an output end of the first servo motor passes through the inner wall of the storage hopper and is fixedly connected to the center of the feed wheel.

[0007] As a further solution of the present invention: a second servo motor is fixedly connected to the front side of the processing box, and an output end of the second servo motor passes through the inner wall of the processing box and is fixedly connected to the center of one of the transmission wheels.

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: the size of the feed wheel matches the size of the inner wall of the storage hopper, and the bottom end of the storage hopper is connected to the processing box.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: a waste box is slidably connected to the inner wall of the processing box, and a side surface of the waste box is slidably connected to the inner wall of the first fixed block.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: the side surfaces of the first fixing block and the second fixing block and the inner wall of the processing box jointly form a ventilation groove.

[0011] As a further solution of the present invention: a material drop trough is formed between the first fixing block and the second fixing block.

[0012] As a further solution of the present invention: the surface of the transmission belt is slidably connected to the inner wall of the processing box, and the size of the transmission belt matches the size of the inner wall of the processing box.

[0013] As a further solution of the present invention: the filter screen is arranged to be inclined, and the bottom end of the filter screen overlaps with the waste box.

[0014] In addition, the present invention also provides a working method of the device for producing stabilized wheat germ, comprising the following steps:

[0015] S1. During operation, the staff can pour the wheat germ into the storage hopper, and then start the first servo motor, which can drive the feeding wheel to rotate. When the feeding wheel rotates, the wheat germ in the storage hopper can be transported to the processing box. The feeding amount can be controlled by controlling the rotation speed of the first servo motor;

[0016] S2. When feeding begins, the hot air box is started for blowing. The hot air blown out can be circulated in the ventilation slot to stabilize the temperature in the processing box at 120°C. When the wheat germ falls, the impurities contained in the wheat germ can be screened by the hot air, and the screened impurities are blown into the waste box for storage;

[0017] S3. The screened wheat germs can fall onto the transmission belt through the drop chute. At this time, the staff starts the second servo motor and drives the transmission belt to rotate through the transmission wheel. The transmission belt can drive the wheat germ to move slowly to the right. During the movement, the hot air in the ventilation trough can heat the wheat germ. By controlling the speed of the second servo motor to make the hot air continue to heat the wheat germ for 30 minutes, the enzyme can be inactivated. At the same time, the ultraviolet lamp can destroy the protein of the microorganisms to inactivate them and sterilize the wheat germ.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] 1. The second servo motor of the present invention drives the transmission wheel to rotate, and the transmission wheel drives the wheat germ to move through the transmission belt. When the wheat germ moves, hot air and ultraviolet light can be used to stabilize it, and the wheat germ can be processed continuously, thereby increasing the production efficiency of the device;

[0020] 2. The present invention can drive the feeding wheel to rotate through the first servo motor, and the feeding wheel can transport the wheat germs in the storage hopper to the processing box, which can prevent a large amount of wheat germs from falling into the processing box at one time, and avoid the accumulation of wheat germs to reduce the heating effect;

[0021] 3. The present invention blows hot air into the ventilation slot through a hot air box. The hot air can screen the wheat germs while maintaining the temperature in the ventilation slots within a set range, ensuring that the temperature in the treatment box is always at a suitable temperature for high-temperature enzyme inactivation of the wheat germs. Through the coupling treatment of ultraviolet light and hot air, the advantages of both can be fully utilized to improve the sterilization effect. Ultraviolet rays will produce ozone when working, and hot air can promote the decomposition of ozone to reduce pollution to the environment.

[0022] Other advantages, objectives and features of the present invention will be set forth in part in the following description and, in part, will be apparent to those skilled in the art based on an examination of the following or may be taught from the practice of the present invention.

The size of the feed wheel 12 matches the size of the inner wall of the storage hopper 2. The bottom end of the storage hopper 2 is connected to the processing box 1. The inner wall of the processing box 1 is slidably connected with a waste box 5. The side of the waste box 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the first fixed block 13. The side of the first fixed block 13 and the second fixed block 14 and the inner wall of the processing box 1 jointly form a ventilation groove 10. A material drop chute 11 is formed between the first fixed block 13 and the second fixed block 14.

The filter screen 9 is set to be inclined, and the bottom end of the filter screen 9 overlaps the waste box 5.

[0032] In the first embodiment, a first servo motor 3 is fixedly connected to the front of the storage hopper 2, and an output end of the first servo motor 3 passes through the inner wall of the storage hopper 2 and is fixedly connected to the center of the feed wheel 12;

[0033] Specifically, the first servo motor 3 can drive the feed wheel 12 to rotate. When the feed wheel 12 rotates, the wheat germ in the storage hopper 2 can be transported to the processing box 1. The feed amount can be controlled by controlling the rotation speed of the first servo motor 3.

By controlling the rotation speed of the second servo motor 4, the moving speed of the wheat germ can be adjusted, and the heating time of the wheat germ in the processing box 1 can be adjusted.

[0036] Working principle:

[0037] First, the staff pours the wheat germ into the storage hopper 2, and then the staff starts the first servo motor 3 to drive the feed wheel 12 to rotate, and the feed wheel 12 can transport the wheat germ in the storage hopper 2 to the processing box 1. At the same time, the staff starts the hot air box 8 to blow out hot air, and the hot air can screen the fallen wheat germs and blow out the impurities contained in the wheat germs. While sorting, the hot air circulates in the ventilation slot 10 to heat the processing box 1 and stabilize the temperature in the processing box 1 at 120°C. The screened wheat germs continue to pass through the drop slot 1. 1 falls onto the transmission belt 6. At this time, the staff starts the second servo motor 4, which can drive the transmission belt 6 to move through the transmission wheel 7, and the transmission belt 6 can drive the wheat germ to move. The rotation speed of the second servo motor 4 is controlled to make the wheat germ move in the processing box 1 for 30 minutes. The enzyme in the germ can be inactivated by 30 minutes of high-temperature treatment, and different temperature ranges and heating times can be selected according to specific circumstances, which can not only achieve effective enzyme inactivation, but also minimize the impact on the nutritional components and flavor of the germ. At this point, the entire work process ends.
