Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of technical egg liquid production, in particular to a preparation method of high-performance egg liquid and a screening device for the preparation. Background Art
[0002] As an important food raw material, egg liquid is widely used in many fields such as baking, cooking, and food processing. In baked foods, egg liquid can give the product good color, flavor, and structure; in cooking, it can be used to make various dishes such as scrambled eggs and fried eggs, and its quality directly affects the taste and appearance of the dishes; in food processing, such as the production of emulsified products such as mayonnaise and salad dressing, the emulsification performance of egg liquid is a key factor. With the continuous development of the food industry, the requirements for the performance of egg liquid are increasing. Not only does the egg liquid need to have good basic properties, such as appropriate viscosity and pure flavor, but it is also expected to have excellent performance in functional properties such as emulsification, foaming, and gelling to meet the needs of diversified and high-quality food production.
[0003] In the field of high-performance egg liquid preparation, the quality difference of eggs plays a decisive role in the performance of the final egg liquid. The egg screening link is of key significance in the entire process. The freshness of eggs has a profound impact on the performance of egg liquid. As the storage time of eggs increases, a series of physical and chemical changes will occur inside them. On the one hand, water will gradually dissipate, causing the concentration of egg liquid to change, which in turn affects its fluidity and ability to interact with other ingredients; on the other hand, protein will denature and degrade, and the fat in the yolk may also oxidize. These changes will seriously weaken the emulsification, foaming and gelling properties of the egg liquid. Through specific screening methods, such as screening out eggs with a specific gravity greater than 1.080, it can be ensured to a large extent that the selected eggs have a high degree of freshness. Because the specific gravity is closely related to the content and freshness of the internal substances of the egg, a higher specific gravity often indicates that the internal structure of the egg is intact, the ratio of egg white and egg yolk is reasonable, and the nutrients are not lost in large quantities, which can provide a stable and high-quality raw material basis for high-performance egg liquid.
[0004] The surface of eggs carries a variety of microorganisms and contaminants. If the surface of eggs is not cleaned, bacteria can easily mix into the egg liquid during the beating process, which will affect the quality of the egg liquid. It may also cause the product to deteriorate and corrupt during subsequent processing and storage, shorten the shelf life of the product and affect consumer health.
[0005] In summary, in the preparation of high-performance egg liquid, egg screening is a crucial pre-process. In the preparation of high-performance egg liquid in the prior art, light screening is generally used, but light screening of eggs depends to a large extent on the experience and subjective judgment of the operator. Different operators may have different understandings and judgments of standards such as air chamber size, yolk state, and egg white state. For example, for eggs with slightly blurred yolk outlines, some operators may consider it an acceptable slight change, while others may judge it as unqualified. This subjectivity will lead to inconsistency in screening results and reduce the accuracy and reliability of the screening process. It is difficult to detect subtle changes in the internal components of eggs through light screening, and the manual light inspection method is inefficient. Summary of the invention

Example 1
[0020] See also Figures 1 to 8 The embodiment of the present application provides a high-performance screening device for preparing egg liquid, including a frame 1, a screening mechanism 2, a cleaning mechanism 3, a drying mechanism 4, a feeding conveyor 5, a qualified egg feeding machine 6, an unqualified egg feeding machine 7 and a manipulator 8.
[0021] Among them, see Figure 1 , filter 2 is set to multiple, see Figure 2The screening mechanism 2 includes a screening frame 201, an upper linear actuator 202, an upper detection cylinder 203, an air pressure sensor 204, an air inlet pipe 205, a liquid inlet pipe 206, an air inlet valve 207, a liquid inlet valve 208, a weighing sensor 209, a weighing cylinder 210, a piston 211, and a lower linear actuator 212. The screening frame 201 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1. The upper linear actuator 202 is a cylinder, and an electric cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder can also be selected. The upper linear actuator 202 is fixedly mounted on the top of the frame 1. The top of the upper detection cylinder 203 is a closed structure, and the lower end of the upper detection cylinder 203 is an open structure. The top of the upper detection cylinder 203 is connected to the output end of the upper linear actuator 202. The upper detection cylinder 203 is equipped with an air pressure sensor 204, an air inlet pipe 205, and a liquid inlet pipe 206. The air inlet pipe 205 is equipped with an air inlet valve 207, and the liquid inlet pipe 206 is equipped with a liquid inlet valve 2 08, the weighing sensor 209 is fixedly mounted on the screening rack 201, the weighing cylinder 210 is mounted on the detection end of the weighing sensor 209, the weighing cylinder 210 is located directly below the upper detection cylinder 203, the upper and lower ends of the weighing cylinder 210 are open structures, the top of the weighing cylinder 210 is formed with a bayonet 213 for limiting the passage of eggs, the inner diameter of the bayonet 213 is 5 cm, the diameter of the egg is usually about 5.5 cm, the bayonet 213 can clamp the egg so that the lower part of the egg is inside the weighing cylinder 210; the inner diameter of the upper detection cylinder 203 is 7 cm, which can accommodate eggs; the lower linear actuator 212 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1, and a piston 211 is installed at the output end of the lower linear actuator 212. The piston 211 can enter and exit the weighing cylinder 210 under the drive of the lower linear actuator 212. When the piston 211 is located inside the weighing cylinder 210, it is slidably sealed and connected with the weighing cylinder 210. Please refer to Figure 5 The upper linear actuator 202 can drive the upper detection cylinder 203 to move to a position in sealed contact with the weighing cylinder 210. When the upper detection cylinder 203 is in sealed contact with the weighing cylinder 210 and the piston 211 is located inside the weighing cylinder 210, a closed detection chamber 214 for accommodating eggs is formed. The detection chamber 214 includes a portion where the liquid inlet pipe 206 and the air inlet pipe 205 are connected to the upper detection cylinder 203 when the liquid inlet valve 208 and the air inlet valve 207 are closed. The position of the piston 211 in the weighing cylinder 210 is different. The volume of the detection chamber 214 is different. The position of the piston 211 in the weighing cylinder 210 is determined by the extension length of the output end of the lower linear actuator 212. The lower linear actuator 212 uses an electric cylinder or a servo cylinder, which can accurately output a preset displacement. The extension length of the output end of the lower linear actuator 212 can be determined, so the volume of the detection chamber 214 can always be determined; the piston 211 is driven by the lower linear actuator 212 to move in the weighing cylinder 210, thereby changing the volume and air pressure of the detection chamber 214; In the above description, the air pressure in the detection chamber 214 is detected by the air pressure sensor 204; the volume of the egg can be calculated based on the changes in the internal volume and air pressure of the detection chamber 214 before and after the movement of the piston 211, according to the ideal gas state equation pV=nRT; the weighing cylinder 210 and the upper detection cylinder 203 are made of copper, which has good thermal conductivity, and therefore is considered to be an isothermal compression situation; the weighing sensor 209 has obtained the mass of the egg, so that the relative density of the egg can be calculated. When the relative density of the egg is greater than 1.080, the egg is considered qualified, thereby distinguishing qualified eggs.
[0022] The specific gravity of eggs is closely related to the content and state of the internal components. Changes in specific gravity can reflect the loss of water inside the egg, the decomposition of protein and fat, etc. When the water inside the egg evaporates or the nutritional content changes, its specific gravity will change accordingly. For example, if the eggs are stored for too long, the water will be lost, the density of the egg liquid will decrease, and the specific gravity will also decrease. Therefore, these changes in internal quality can be effectively detected through specific gravity screening, while light screening mainly focuses on the external appearance of the egg, and it is difficult to detect subtle changes in internal components.
[0023] Experiments have found that after a week of storage, the specific gravity of eggs may drop from about 1.085 to about 1.075. This change can be easily detected through specific gravity screening, while light screening may not be able to detect this decline in internal quality when there is no obvious change in the appearance of the eggs.
[0024] The cleaning mechanism 3 includes a power pump 31, a liquid storage tank 32 and an infusion pipeline. The liquid storage tank 32 is provided with a disinfectant pool 321 and a clean water pool 322. The power pump 31 selectively delivers the disinfectant stored in the disinfectant pool 321 and the clean water stored in the clean water pool 322 to the liquid inlet pipe 206 through the infusion pipeline; the disinfectant water stored in the disinfectant pool 321 is a sodium hypochlorite solution with a concentration of 150 mg / L; the infusion pipeline includes a disinfectant suction pipe 33, a clean water suction pipe 34, a two-position three-way solenoid valve 35, a main infusion pipeline 36, a branch infusion pipeline 37, and a two-position three-way solenoid valve 35. The two input ends of the magnetic valve 35 are respectively connected to the disinfectant suction pipe 33 and the clean water suction pipe 34. The input end of the disinfectant suction pipe 33 is located in the disinfectant water pool, and the clean water suction pipe 34 is located in the clean water pool 322. The input end of the main infusion pipeline 36 is connected to the output end of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 35. The power pump 31 is connected in series to the main infusion pipeline 36. The main infusion pipeline 36 is equipped with a branch infusion pipe 37 corresponding to the inlet pipe 206 one by one, and the output end of the branch infusion pipe 37 is connected to the inlet pipe 206; a flow sensor 38 is installed on the branch infusion pipe 37 or the inlet pipe 206.
[0025] In the above description, after completing the test of the eggs, refer to Figure 5, open the liquid inlet valve 208 corresponding to the qualified eggs, and the liquid inlet valve 208 of the unqualified eggs can also be opened at the same time, the two-position three-way electromagnetic valve 35 connects the disinfectant liquid suction pipe 33 and the main infusion pipe 36, under the action of the power pump 31, the disinfectant stored in the disinfectant pool 321 enters the disinfectant liquid suction pipe 33, the main infusion pipe, the branch infusion pipe 37, and the liquid inlet pipe 206 detection chamber 214 in sequence, and the flow sensor 38 detects the flow of the incoming liquid. When the flow reaches a preset value, the controller controls the corresponding liquid inlet valve 208 to close; the controller is electrically connected to each electrical component of the screening device of this embodiment, and a control program is preset in the controller to control the automatic screening operation; the liquid inlet valve 208 uses a solenoid valve or an electric valve, which can be automatically opened and closed by the preset program of the controller; the air inlet valve 207 can be in an open state, which can balance the air pressure and facilitate the disinfectant to enter the detection chamber 214; after the eggs are immersed in the disinfectant for a preset time, please refer to Figure 6 , the lower linear actuator drives the piston 211 to descend to a position away from the weighing cylinder 210, and the disinfectant water in the detection chamber 214 is automatically discharged; then, the two-position three-way solenoid valve 35 connects the clean water suction pipe 34 and the main infusion pipe 36, and under the action of the power pump 31, the clean water stored in the clean water pool 322 enters the clean water suction pipe 34, the main infusion pipe, the branch infusion pipe 37, and the inlet pipe 206 into the detection chamber 214 in turn to clean the qualified eggs or all the eggs that have been tested.
[0026] The drying mechanism 4 includes a fan 41 and an air supply duct. The fan 41 is connected to the air inlet pipe 205 through the air supply duct. The air supply duct includes a main air supply pipe 42 and a plurality of branch air supply pipes 43. The output end of the fan 41 is connected to the main air supply pipe 42. The main air supply pipe 42 is provided with branch air supply pipes 43 corresponding to the air inlet pipe 205.

The air contacts the eggs and blows the eggs dry to obtain dry and clean eggs.
[0027] In order to collect disinfectant water and clean water for cleaning eggs, the screening mechanism 2 is provided to include a lower water collecting annular groove 215 with an annular cavity. The lower water collecting annular groove 215 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1. The bottom of the weighing cylinder 210 is located in the lower water collecting annular groove 215. The output end of the lower linear actuator 212 passes through the inner side of the lower water collecting annular groove 215. A branch drain pipe is provided at the bottom of the lower water collecting annular groove 215. Each branch drain pipe is connected to the main drain pipe. The disinfectant water and clean water for cleaning eggs flow from the weighing cylinder 210 into the annular cavity of the lower water collecting annular groove 215. The piston 211 can cover the circular hole formed at the center of the lower water collecting annular groove 215 to prevent water from contacting the lower linear actuator 212. The waste water in the annular cavity of the lower water collecting annular groove 215 enters the main drain pipe through the branch drain pipe and is finally discharged from the main drain pipe.
[0028] In some implementations, in order to facilitate the detection of the temperature in the detection chamber 214, the screening mechanism 2 is further provided with a temperature sensor 216, which is fixedly mounted on the upper detection cylinder 203 and is used to detect the internal temperature of the upper detection cylinder 203. When the piston 211 changes the volume of the detection chamber 214, the temperature in the detection chamber 214 will change to a certain extent. By detecting the temperature of the detection chamber 214, based on the ideal gas state equation pV=nRT, the volume of the egg can be accurately detected.
[0029] In some implementations, to achieve automatic loading and unloading, please refer to Figure 1 , a manipulator 8 is set to correspond to the screening mechanism 2 one by one, and the manipulator 8 is used to load and unload the corresponding screening mechanism 2. The manipulator 8 is used to transport the eggs to be screened on the feeding conveyor 5 to the weighing cylinder 210, and to transport the qualified eggs after the inspection to the qualified egg feeding machine 6, and to transport the unqualified eggs after the inspection to the unqualified egg feeding machine 7. The feeding conveyor 5, the qualified egg feeding machine 6, and the unqualified egg feeding machine 7 are all belt conveyors, and the feeding conveyor 5, the qualified egg feeding machine 6, and the unqualified egg feeding machine 7 are arranged in parallel and adjacent to each other. The manipulator 8 is a multi-axis robot of the prior art, which can realize multi-degree-of-freedom movement, and can accurately pick up eggs in conjunction with the visual inspection module.
[0030] See also Figure 1 The manipulator 8 includes an end effector, which includes a negative pressure box 81, a pre-detection vacuum cup 82, a post-detection vacuum cup 83, a pre-detection negative pressure tube 84, and a post-detection negative pressure tube 85. The negative pressure box 81 is fixedly connected to the manipulator 8, and the negative pressure box 81 is connected to a negative pressure source, which may be a vacuum generator. The pre-detection vacuum cup 82 is connected to the negative pressure box 81 through the pre-detection negative pressure tube 84, and the post-detection vacuum cup 83 is connected to the negative pressure box 81 through the post-detection negative pressure tube 85. Please refer to Figure 3, negative pressure valves 86 are installed on the negative pressure pipe 84 before detection and the negative pressure pipe 85 after detection. The manipulator 8 uses the vacuum suction cup 82 before detection to transfer the uncleaned eggs on the feeding conveyor 5 to the weighing cylinder 210 or transfer the unqualified eggs that have been detected and uncleaned to the unqualified egg feeder 7. The vacuum suction cup 83 after detection is used by the manipulator 8 to transfer the eggs that have been detected and cleaned to the qualified egg feeder 6 or to transfer the unqualified eggs that have been detected and cleaned to the unqualified egg feeder 7. That is, the vacuum suction cup 82 before detection only contacts the uncleaned eggs, and the vacuum suction cup 83 after detection only contacts the cleaned eggs, which can avoid the contamination of the eggs when transferring the cleaned eggs due to only one vacuum suction cup, and can ensure the cleanliness of the eggs. By controlling the opening and closing of the corresponding negative pressure valve 86, the vacuum suction cup 82 before detection and the vacuum suction cup 83 after detection are switched to work.
[0031] In order to facilitate the weighing sensor 209 to detect the weight of the weighing cylinder 210, the weighing sensor 209 is set to use a ring-shaped weighing sensor 209, and the weighing cylinder 210 is inserted inside the weighing sensor 209. In order to facilitate the weighing sensor 209 to carry the weighing cylinder 210, a flange 217 is set on the top of the weighing cylinder 210, and the flange 217 is connected to the detection end of the weighing sensor 209; In order to facilitate the upper detection cylinder 203 to maintain sealing when in contact with the weighing cylinder 210 , a sealing ring is installed at the bottom end of the upper detection cylinder 203 , and the sealing ring is used to seal and contact with the flange 217 .
[0032] In order to avoid too much water stains remaining on the flange 217 and affecting the drying efficiency of the weighing cylinder 210, a guide cone 218 is provided on the inner side of the flange 217, and a plurality of guide ports 219 are provided on the guide cone 218. The guide ports 219 are distributed in a circle on the inner wall of the weighing cylinder 210. The outer diameter of the guide cone 218 is the same as the inner diameter of the sealing ring. When the upper detection cylinder 203 is in sealing contact with the weighing cylinder 210, the guide cone 218 is located on the inner side of the sealing ring. When washing eggs, the washing water enters the upper detection cylinder 203 and the weighing cylinder 210 and is likely to remain on the flange 217. The guide cone 218 is provided to allow the water to flow downward under the action of gravity, thereby avoiding too much water stains remaining on the flange 217, which increases the drying time of the eggs and the weighing cylinder 210. When the egg is inserted into the slot 213, the connection area between the upper detection cylinder 203 and the weighing cylinder 210 becomes smaller, affecting the circulation of water and air. The flow guide port 219 is provided to increase the connection area between the upper detection cylinder 203 and the weighing cylinder 210, increase the circulation of water and air, and thus improve the cleaning and drying efficiency. Example 2
[0033] This embodiment also provides a method for preparing high-performance liquid egg using the above-mentioned screening device for preparing high-performance liquid egg, comprising the following steps: Step 1, raw material screening: select eggs with no damage and clean surface, screen the eggs, place the eggs in the bayonet 213, obtain the egg mass M0 through the weighing sensor 209, drive the upper detection cylinder 203 down to the weighing cylinder 210 through the upper linear actuator 202, drive the piston 211 up to the weighing cylinder 210 through the lower linear actuator 212, and form a closed detection chamber 214 for accommodating the eggs. The initial volume and initial air pressure of the detection chamber 214 are V1 and p1 respectively. Drive the piston 211 to move slowly in the weighing cylinder 210 through the lower linear actuator 212 to change the volume and air pressure of the detection chamber 214. The piston 211 moves in the weighing cylinder 210. 10. The slow movement within the detection chamber 214 can try not to change the temperature of the detection chamber 214. At this time, the volume and pressure of the detection chamber 214 are V2 and p2 respectively. According to the ideal gas state equation pV=nRT, where p is pressure, V is gas volume, T is temperature, n is the amount of gas, and R is the molar gas constant, the volume V0 of the egg is calculated; according to the object density equation ρ=M / V, where M is the weight of the object and V is the volume of the object, the relative density ρ=M0 / V0 of the egg is calculated; when ρ>1.080, the egg is deemed qualified; the specific calculation principle can be referred to the patent with publication number CN208579750U, entitled Device for Measuring the Volume of Irregular Objects with Gas; Step 2, cleaning and disinfection: the power pump 31 delivers the disinfectant stored in the disinfectant pool 321 to the liquid inlet pipe 206 and the detection chamber 214 through the infusion pipeline to immerse the eggs, and the eggs are soaked for 3-10 minutes; then the lower linear actuator 212 drives the piston 211 to descend and move out of the weighing cylinder 210, and the power pump 31 delivers the clean water stored in the clean water pool 322 to the liquid inlet pipe 206 and the detection chamber 214 through the infusion pipeline to rinse the eggs and remove bacteria, viruses and residual disinfectant on the surface of the eggshell; specifically, the inlet valve 208 is opened, and the two-position three-way solenoid valve 35 connects the disinfectant suction pipe 33 and the main infusion pipeline 36. Under the action of the power pump 31, the disinfectant stored in the disinfectant pool 321 enters the main infusion pipeline 36 in sequence. The flow sensor 38 detects the flow of the liquid entering the disinfectant pumping pipe 33, the main infusion pipe, the branch infusion pipe 37, and the inlet pipe 206 detection chamber 214. When the flow reaches a preset value, the controller controls the corresponding inlet valve 208 to close. After the eggs are immersed in the disinfectant for a preset time, the lower linear actuator drives the piston 211 to descend to a position away from the weighing cylinder 210, and the disinfectant in the detection chamber 214 is automatically discharged. Subsequently, the two-position three-way solenoid valve 35 connects the clean water pumping pipe 34 and the main infusion pipe 36. Under the action of the power pump 31, the clean water stored in the clean water pool 322 enters the clean water pumping pipe 34, the main infusion pipe, the branch infusion pipe 37, and the inlet pipe 206 detection chamber 214 in turn to clean the eggs. Step 3: After the eggs are cleaned, the liquid inlet valve 208 is closed, the air inlet valve 207 is opened, and the fan 41 delivers the pressurized air to the main air supply pipe 42, the branch air supply pipe 43, the air inlet pipe 205, the upper detection cylinder 203, and the weighing cylinder 210. The air contacts the eggs and blows the eggs dry to obtain dry and clean eggs. Step 4, breaking the eggs and separating them: breaking the eggs in step 2, filtering the egg liquid, separating the eggshell fragments, ligaments and other impurities in the egg liquid, and obtaining a pure egg liquid base liquid; Step 5, adding improvers and auxiliary materials: 0.3% of phospholipids, 0.8% of salt and 8% of sucrose based on the total weight of the egg liquid base liquid are mixed and stirred evenly; Step 6, homogenization: homogenize the mixed egg liquid obtained in step 4 by ultrasonic wave, and perform vacuum degassing at the same time; high-density ultrasonic power is 220W, ultrasonic time is 10 minutes, and ultrasonic wave is performed for 3 seconds and rest for 3 seconds, so that the particles such as fat globules in the egg liquid are further refined and the emulsification stability of the egg liquid is improved; Step 7, sterilization: the mixed egg liquid obtained in step 5 is sterilized by pasteurization in a water bath at 64-66°C for 3.5-4 minutes; Step 8, testing and storage: the qualified mixed egg liquid product obtained in step 6 is stored in a refrigerated device at 0-4°C. Example 3
[0034] This embodiment is substantially the same as Implementation 2, except that in step 4, improvers and auxiliary materials are added: 0.2% of the total weight of the egg liquid base liquid, 0.7% of salt, and 7% of sucrose are mixed with the egg liquid base liquid and stirred evenly.
[0035] By comparing the high-performance egg liquid prepared in Example 2 and Example 3 with ordinary egg liquid, the results show that the high-performance egg liquid prepared by the present invention is significantly superior to ordinary egg liquid in emulsification, foaming and gelling properties, and can better meet the requirements for high performance of egg liquid in the food industry.
