[0042] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0043] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0044] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the present invention provides an intelligent automatic continuous steaming machine, comprising:

[0045] The feed module 100 is provided with a first cavity 110 inside, and a food feed end 120 and an inlet box 130 are respectively provided at both ends of the first cavity 110, wherein the food feed end 120 and the inlet box 130 are both connected to the first cavity 110, and a first air collecting hood 140 connected to the inlet box 130 is provided on the inlet box 130, and a first heat exchanger 150 is provided in the first air collecting hood 140, and a water inlet end of the first heat exchanger 150 is connected to a water outlet end of a water pump 200;

[0046] The discharging module 300 is provided with a second cavity 310 inside, and a food material discharging end 320 and an outlet box 330 are respectively provided at both ends of the second cavity 310, wherein the food material discharging end 320 and the outlet box 330 are both connected to the second cavity 310, and a second air collecting hood 340 connected to the outlet box 330 is provided on the outlet box 330, and a second heat exchanger 350 is provided in the second air collecting hood 340, and a water inlet end of the second heat exchanger 350 is connected to a water outlet end of the first heat exchanger 150;

[0047] The steaming module 400 is located between the feeding module 100 and the discharging module 300, and the steaming module 400 includes a steaming chamber 410, and a steaming chamber 420 connected with the first cavity 110 and the second cavity 310 is arranged in the steaming chamber 410, wherein a water replenishment system and a steam system are arranged in the steaming chamber 420 and are distributed up and down, and the water outlet direction of the water replenishment system is from top to bottom, and the gas outlet direction of the steam system is along the vertical direction. The water inlet end of the water replenishment system is connected to the water outlet end of the second heat exchanger 350;

[0048] The transmission module 500 includes a transmission mesh belt 510 for carrying the food to be cooked, and the two ends of the transmission mesh belt 510 are respectively located in the first cavity 110 and the second cavity 310, wherein the water outlet end of the water replenishment system is located above the transmission mesh belt 510, and the gas outlet end of the steam system is located between the upper and lower sides of the transmission mesh belt 510.

[0049] It is worth mentioning that since the first air collecting hood 140 and the second air collecting hood 340 are connected to the steaming chamber 420, the first heat exchanger 150 and the second heat exchanger 350 located in the first air collecting hood 140 and the second air collecting hood 340 are always in an environment surrounded by steam. When water flows through the first heat exchanger 150 and the second heat exchanger 350, the water in the first heat exchanger 150 and the second heat exchanger 350 can be heated by the heat conduction effect. Therefore, the water flowing out of the water replenishment system has a certain temperature. Generally, the temperature of the water passing through the first heat exchanger 150 when flowing out from the water outlet of the first heat exchanger 150 is about 65°, and the temperature of the water passing through the second heat exchanger 350 when flowing out from the water outlet of the second heat exchanger 350 is about 95°. Therefore, the rice grains on the transmission mesh belt 510 are steamed under the action of steam on the one hand, and water is replenished in time under the action of the water replenishment system on the other hand, thereby ensuring the taste of the steamed rice.

[0050] The invention provides an intelligent automatic continuous steaming machine, which improves the taste of rice by cooperating a water replenishing system with a steam system.

[0051] Preferably, the first heat exchanger 150 and the second heat exchanger 350 are arranged in an S shape, and the water inlet end of the first heat exchanger 150 is close to the end where the first air collecting hood 140 is connected to the inlet box 130, the water outlet end of the first heat exchanger 150 is far away from the end where the first air collecting hood 140 is connected to the inlet box 130, the water inlet end of the second heat exchanger 350 is far away from the end where the second air collecting hood 340 is connected to the outlet box 330, and the water outlet end of the second heat exchanger 350 is close to the end where the second air collecting hood 340 is connected to the outlet box 330.

[0052] It is worth mentioning that since the water pump 200 is installed below the feeding module 100, in order to shorten the distance between the water inlet end of the first heat exchanger 150 and the water outlet end of the water pump 200, the water inlet end of the first heat exchanger 150 is arranged at the end connected to the first air collecting hood 140 and the inlet end box 130; and the water inlet end of the water replenishment system is located below the steaming module 400. In order to shorten the distance between the water outlet end of the second heat exchanger 350 and the water inlet end of the water replenishment system, the water outlet end of the second heat exchanger 350 is arranged at the end connected to the second air collecting hood 340 and the outlet end box 330.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first heat exchanger 150 and the second heat exchanger 350 are arranged to be an S-shaped structure, so as to increase the heating area of ​​the first heat exchanger 150 and the second heat exchanger 350, and increase the distance and time of water flowing in the first heat exchanger 150 and the second heat exchanger 350, thereby ensuring that the temperature of water flowing out from the water outlet end of the first heat exchanger 150 and the water outlet end of the second heat exchanger 350 reaches a preset temperature, thereby ensuring the taste of the rice after it is subsequently steamed.

[0054] Preferably, the water replenishment system includes multiple water replenishment units 430, and the multiple water replenishment units 430 are arranged in sequence along the food conveying direction, wherein each water replenishment unit 430 includes a water inlet pipe 431, and a water outlet pipe 432 connected to the water inlet pipe 431, and the water inlet pipe 431 in each water replenishment unit 430 can be commonly connected to a water inlet main pipe, which is connected to the water outlet end of the second heat exchanger 350.

[0055] It is worth mentioning that since the space inside the steaming chamber 420 is relatively large, in order to ensure that the rice grains at all parts of the transmission mesh belt 510 can be replenished with sufficient moisture, two methods are generally used. One is to increase the number of water replenishment units 430, so that the number of water outlet pipes 432 can be increased, thereby ensuring that the rice grains at all parts of the transmission mesh belt 510 can be replenished with sufficient moisture. The other method is to change the structure of the water outlet pipe 432, that is, to form the water outlet pipe 432 into an I-shaped structure, or a W-shaped structure, etc.

[0056] In addition, based on the above two methods, the structure of the water outlet nozzle on the water outlet pipe 432 can be improved so that the water sprayed from the water outlet nozzle is arranged in a divergent shape, like the structure of a water nozzle on a lawn. This further satisfies the requirement that the rice grains at all parts of the transmission mesh belt 510 can be replenished with sufficient water.

[0057] Preferably, the steam system includes a plurality of steam units 440, and the plurality of steam units 440 are arranged in sequence along the direction of conveying the food, wherein each steam unit 440 includes an air inlet pipe 441 and an air outlet pipe 442 connected to the air inlet pipe 441, and the air inlet pipe 441 in each steam unit 440 can be commonly connected to an air inlet main pipe, which is connected to the steam generator 600.

[0058] It is worth mentioning that, similar to the water replenishment system, since the space inside the steaming chamber 420 is relatively large, in order to ensure that the rice grains at various positions on the transmission mesh belt 510 can be covered by steam, two methods can also be adopted. One is to increase the number of steam units 440, and the other is to change the structure of the air outlet pipe 442. At the same time, the structure of the air outlet nozzle on the air outlet pipe 442 can be changed. Therefore, they will not be elaborated here.

[0059] It is further pointed out that generally, the number of the water replenishment units 430 is the same as the number of the steam units 440 , and the positions of the water replenishment units 430 correspond one-to-one to the positions of the steam units 440 .

[0060] Preferably, the steam unit 440 further includes a plurality of steam boxes 443 , through which the air outlet pipes 442 in the corresponding steam units 440 are stored in the steam boxes 443 , and steam outlet holes are provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the steam boxes 443 .

[0061] In this embodiment, a steam box 443 is added, and the air outlet pipe 442 in each steam unit 440 is correspondingly retracted in the steam box 443, so that the steam is concentrated, and the intensity of the steam on the rice grains per unit area on the transmission net is increased, thereby ensuring the taste of the rice after steaming. In addition, the transmission mesh belt 510 has a certain thickness. Although the transmission mesh belt 510 is provided with air holes, the air holes are relatively dense, and the impact of general steam may not be able to penetrate the transmission mesh belt 510. By providing the steam box 443, the impact of the steam per unit area can be increased, so that it can easily penetrate the transmission mesh belt 510, thereby ensuring that the rice grains on the transmission mesh belt 510 are heated evenly.

[0062] It is worth mentioning that a plurality of steam box supports 444 are provided in the steaming chamber 420 , and the steam box 443 is supported by the steam box supports 444 , so that the steam box 443 is located between the upper and lower sides of the transmission mesh belt 510 .

[0063] Preferably, a plurality of inspection windows 411 are provided on the wall of the steaming chamber 420, and sealing strips 412 are provided along the edges of the inspection windows 411, wherein an inspection door body 413 is movably and detachably connected to each inspection window 411, and the inspection window 411 can be opened or closed by the inspection door body 413 to enable the interior of the steam unit 440 to be repaired.

[0064] Preferably, there may be multiple steaming modules 400, and the multiple steaming modules 400 are arranged side by side along the food transmission direction, wherein two adjacent steaming modules 400 are interconnected, and the multiple steaming modules 400 share a water replenishment system and a steam system.

[0065] Preferably, a discharge window 161 is further provided on the feed module 100, and the discharge window 161 is located between the food feed end 120 and the feed end box 130, and the edge of the discharge window 161 extends upward in a direction away from the first cavity 110 to form a rib 162, wherein an annular groove 163 is formed between the rib 162 and the feed shell 160 of the feed module 100, and liquid is injected into the annular groove 163, and the liquid level is not higher than the highest level of the rib 162; the cover plate 170 forms a nested fit with the rib 162 to open or seal the discharge window 161.

[0066] It is worth mentioning that when the steamed food needs to be heated, it can be inserted from the material discharge window 161 and placed on the conveying mesh belt 510 , and then the material discharge window 161 is sealed by the cover plate 170 .

[0067] In this embodiment, by providing the discharge window 161, it is possible to heat ingredients other than steamed rice, thereby expanding the versatility of the entire device. In addition, through the "water seal" structure, that is, liquid is injected into the annular groove 163, and the cover plate 170 is embedded in the discharge window 161, it is possible to prevent steam from overflowing from the discharge window 161 and burning the operator, thereby improving the safety of the device.

[0068] Preferably, a smoke outlet hood 360 is further provided on the discharging module 300 , and the smoke outlet hood 360 is located at one side of the discharging end box 330 and above the food discharging end 320 , wherein a smoke outlet channel 361 is provided in the smoke outlet hood 360 .

[0069] In this embodiment, by providing the smoke outlet channel 361, the steam in the steaming module 400 can be discharged along a preset track without overflowing from other structures of the entire device, thereby ensuring the safety of the operator when using the device.

[0070] It is further pointed out that a detachable cover 362 is also provided on the smoke exhaust hood 360 to serve as an inspection position for the discharge module 300 .

[0071] Preferably, the transmission module 500 includes a transmission motor 520, and the output end of the transmission motor 520 is connected to a reducer 530, and the output end of the reducer 530 is connected to a driving gear 540, wherein a transmission shaft 550 is respectively arranged at both ends of the transmission mesh belt 510, and a driven gear 560 is connected to one end of a transmission shaft 550, and the driven gear 560 is connected to the driving gear 540 by a chain.
