Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of grinding equipment, in particular to an automatic grinding machine for producing Artemisia selengensis cake. Background Art

[0002] Artemisia selengensis is also known as Artemisia selengensis, Artemisia selengensis, etc. In the production process of processing Artemisia selengensis into Artemisia selengensis cake, first of all, it is necessary to pick the tenderer Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves, then wash and blanch them, then take out the blanched Artemisia selengensis, squeeze out the water after passing through cold water, then process the Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves into crumbs or mud, and then mix them with raw materials such as glutinous rice flour to make dough. After that, the dough is divided into several balls, pressed into a pancake shape, and finally processed by frying and other processes to obtain edible Artemisia selengensis cake. In the prior art, Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves are squeezed out and ground in two devices respectively, and then the Artemisia selengensis is transported by a conveyor belt. This process requires multiple loading, unloading and transportation, which affects the processing efficiency, and may also cause Artemisia selengensis to be contaminated, affecting food hygiene. In addition, in order to release the aroma of Artemisia selengensis more fully and avoid the rough taste brought by the overly long Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves, the Artemisia selengensis needs to be ground as finely and evenly as possible. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and provide an automated grinding machine for the production of Artemisia selengensis cake, which can optimize the transportation process of Artemisia selengensis and improve work efficiency; at the same time, it can make the particles after the Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves are ground more delicate and uniform.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in the present application is: an automated grinding machine for producing Artemisia selengensis cake, comprising a workbench, a storage barrel is arranged above the workbench, and the upper and lower ends of the storage barrel are open; when working, the storage barrel passes through the loading area, compression area and processing area in sequence, and the storage barrel completes the addition of Artemisia selengensis, the extrusion of water and the addition of Artemisia selengensis to the grinding mechanism in the loading area, compression area and processing area respectively; a compression plate that moves along the axial direction of the storage barrel is arranged above the compression area, the workbench is provided with a discharge port in the processing area, and a grinding mechanism is arranged below the discharge port, the grinding mechanism comprises a shell, a feed port connected to the discharge port is arranged at the upper end of the shell, a slitting knife is arranged below the feed port in the shell, a grinding roller is arranged below the slitting knife in the shell, grinding teeth are arranged on the outer wall of the grinding roller, a circle of grinding ring cooperating with the grinding teeth is arranged on the inner wall of the shell, and the shell has a discharge port below the grinding roller. The slitting knife works to break up the Artemisia selengensis and make preliminary cuts to the Artemisia selengensis to shorten the length of the Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves and make the length of the Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves more uniform, so as to improve the grinding efficiency and make the particles produced by the Artemisia selengensis after grinding more uniform, thereby further improving the grinding quality.

[0005] Furthermore, in order to prevent the water generated during the extrusion of the Artemisia argyi from flowing out, a circle of baffles is provided at the upper end of the workbench, outside the moving path of the storage barrel. At the same time, a water collection trough is also provided at the upper end of the workbench, and the water collection trough is connected to the drainage pipe on the workbench. In this way, the water squeezed out of the Artemisia argyi can be collected by the water collection trough and then discharged through the drainage pipe, thereby ensuring a clean production environment.

[0006] Furthermore, drainage holes are arranged at intervals on the side walls of the storage barrel to facilitate the drainage of water in the Artemisia selengensis.

[0007] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the addition of Artemisia argyi leaves and stems into the storage barrel, a hopper is provided above the feeding area, and a vibration motor is provided on the side wall of the hopper. The vibration motor drives the material in the hopper to move downward to prevent Artemisia argyi and other materials from getting stuck in the storage barrel.

[0008] Furthermore, since the materials used are stems and leaves of Artemisia selengensis, most of these materials are in the form of long strips. In order to prevent the material from getting stuck in the storage barrel and to provide suitable raw materials for subsequent grinding processing, a conveyor belt is horizontally arranged above the hopper. A chopping board is arranged at the end of the conveyor belt, and the chopping board is located directly above the feeding end of the hopper. A reciprocating primary cutter is arranged above the chopping board to cut the stems and leaves of Artemisia selengensis into small sections.

[0009] Furthermore, a nozzle facing the grinding roller is arranged on the inner side wall of the shell, and the grinding roller is cleaned by liquid or gas sprayed from the nozzle.

[0010] Furthermore, the Artemisia selengensis in the storage barrel is mostly in the shape of long strips with branches, which are crossed together, so that the lower end of the side wall of the storage barrel is hinged with a carrying rod that can automatically reset to a horizontal state, and the carrying rod is arranged in a circular array around the axis of the storage barrel. The carrying rod provides support and constraint for the material in the storage barrel during the movement of the storage barrel, and prevents the material from being stuck between the storage barrel and the workbench during the movement of the storage barrel, causing the Artemisia selengensis to wear. Since the feeding speed is too fast or too slow, the quality and efficiency of grinding will be affected. Through the carrying rod, the material can be discharged in an orderly manner, and the uncontrolled discharge of the material when the storage barrel moves to the discharge port can be avoided.

[0011] Furthermore, since the materials in the storage barrel are mostly stems and leaves that are crossed together, especially after being squeezed by the compression plate, the Artemisia selengensis is tightly pressed together. Therefore, due to the friction and the support structure formed by the cross-cutting stems and leaves, the Artemisia selengensis is not easy to fall down. In order to ensure that the Artemisia selengensis in the storage barrel can fall into the shell for grinding, a push plate is provided above the processing area. The push plate moves axially along the storage barrel under the drive of the push drive mechanism, and the material discharge speed is controlled by the cooperation of the push plate and the carrier rod.

[0012] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the carrying rod can be reset to a horizontal state and avoid the carrying rod interfering with the movement of the storage barrel, a circle of arc grooves concentric with the discharge port is provided at the upper end of the side wall of the discharge port. Grooves are provided in a circular array around the discharge port axis on the side wall of the discharge port, and the grooves are provided in a direction perpendicular to the discharge port axis. A spring is provided in the groove, and one end of the spring extends into the discharge port without external force, and the position of the spring is adapted to the carrying rod.

[0013] Furthermore, in order to improve processing efficiency, the storage barrels are arranged in a circular array around the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft rotates around its vertical axis under the drive of the main motor, and the rotating shaft is connected to the storage barrels through a connecting rod. In this way, different storage barrels can perform loading, extrusion and discharging operations respectively.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: the storage barrel passes through the loading area, compression area and processing area in sequence, realizing the continuous processing of Artemisia selengensis from raw material input to ground finished product. The transportation process of Artemisia selengensis is optimized, avoiding the waste of time and labor costs in multiple loading, unloading and transportation processes, and significantly improving production efficiency; at the same time, because Artemisia selengensis is in the storage barrel, the chance of Artemisia selengensis contact with the outside world is reduced, which improves food safety and hygiene to a certain extent. When Artemisia selengensis is ground, Artemisia selengensis is first processed into small sections by a cutting knife, and then the grinding operation is performed, so that the material before grinding is more uniform, which helps to make the particles of the ground Artemisia selengensis stems and leaves more delicate and uniform.

[0021] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the specific structure of this embodiment is an automatic grinding machine for producing Artemisia argyi cake, including a workbench 1, a storage barrel 2 is arranged above the workbench 1, the lower end of the storage barrel 2 is in contact with or close to the upper end of the workbench 1, and drainage holes 15 are arranged on the side wall of the storage barrel 2 at intervals. The upper and lower ends of the storage barrel 2 are open, and the storage barrel 2 is arranged vertically; when working, the storage barrel 2 can be moved horizontally to pass through the feeding area, the compression area and the processing area in sequence. It should be noted here that the feeding area, the compression area The areas and processing areas are named by the applicant according to the operations performed at the corresponding positions of the storage barrels 2. In the present embodiment, in order to further improve the working efficiency, the storage barrels 2 are arranged in a circular array around the rotating shaft 27, and the angle between two adjacent storage barrels 2 is ninety degrees. The rotating shaft 27 rotates around its vertical axis under the drive of the main motor 28. The rotating shaft 27 is connected to the storage barrel 2 by a connecting rod 29, and the two adjacent storage barrels 2 are also connected by an arc rod. The rotating shaft 27 is coaxially arranged with the workbench 1.

[0022] A baffle 12 is disposed on the outer side of the upper end of the workbench 1 , and a water collection trough 13 is disposed on the upper end of the workbench 1 . The middle part of the water collection trough 13 is concave downward and communicated with a drainage pipe 14 on the workbench 1 .

[0023] A compression plate 3 which moves axially along the storage barrel 2 is arranged above the compression zone, and the compression plate 3 moves under the drive of a cylinder, an oil cylinder, etc. A discharge port 4 is arranged at the processing area of ​​the workbench 1, and a grinding mechanism is arranged below the discharge port 4. The grinding mechanism includes a shell 5, and a feed port 6 which is connected to the discharge port 4 is arranged at the upper end of the shell 5. A slitting knife 7 is arranged below the feed port 6 in the shell 5, and a grinding roller 8 is arranged below the slitting knife 7 in the shell 5. The grinding roller 8 is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The upper end of the grinding roller 8 is arranged in an arc shape extending upward from the middle part. The grinding roller 8 is driven by a grinding motor in the shell, and the grinding motor is arranged in a sealed shell, which is fixed by a support beam in the shell 5. Grinding teeth 9 are arranged on the outer wall of the grinding roller 8, and a grinding ring 10 which cooperates with the grinding teeth 9 is arranged on the inner wall of the shell 5. Abrasives such as teeth are arranged on the inner wall of the grinding ring 10, and a discharge port 11 is arranged below the grinding roller 8. A nozzle 21 facing the grinding roller 8 is arranged on the inner wall of the shell 5. The nozzle 21 is arranged in a circular array around the grinding roller 8. The nozzle 21 is connected to a water source or an air source through a flow channel in the side wall of the shell 5. The grinding roller 8 is cleaned by liquid or gas sprayed by the nozzle 21.

[0024] Specific working process: the staff adds the stems and leaves of Artemisia selengensis after supercooling water into the storage barrel 2 located in the feeding area, and then the storage barrel 2 is moved to the compression area for drainage, that is, the compression plate 3 moves from top to bottom into the storage barrel 2 to press the Artemisia selengensis to squeeze out the water in the Artemisia selengensis. After the drainage is completed, the storage barrel 2 moves to the processing area, and the Artemisia selengensis in the storage barrel 2 enters the shell 5 through the discharge port 4 and the feed port 6. The Artemisia selengensis is first processed into small sections by the rotating slitting knife 7 in the shell 5, and then the Artemisia selengensis enters the space between the grinding teeth 9 and the grinding ring 10 and is ground into powder or mud. Then it falls out from the discharge port 11. When one storage barrel 2 passes through the feeding area, compression area and processing area in turn, the remaining storage barrels 2 fill in the position in turn.

[0025] In order to make food processing safer and more hygienic, the upper end of the baffle 12 is arranged at the lower end of the top plate, and the storage barrel 2 moves in the space enclosed by the top plate, the baffle 12 and the workbench 1. Through holes are arranged on the top plate in the feeding area, the compression area and the processing area to facilitate the entry of materials, the operation of the compression plate, etc. When the top plate is arranged, the main motor 28 is installed at the upper end of the top plate.

[0026] Embodiment 2, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the other mechanisms and working processes of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1, but in this embodiment, a feeding hopper 16 is provided above the feeding area, a vibration motor 17 is provided on the side wall of the feeding hopper 16, and the feeding hopper 16 is not directly connected to the top plate. The vibration generated by the vibration motor 17 causes the Artemisia selengensis to move downward.

[0027] A conveyor belt 18 is horizontally arranged above the feeding hopper 16, and a chopping board 19 is arranged at the end of the conveyor belt 18. The chopping board 19 is located above the feeding end of the feeding hopper 16. A primary cutting knife 20 is arranged above the chopping board 19. The primary cutting knife 20 moves vertically when driven by a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, etc. to perform preliminary cutting of the material so that the material can enter the storage barrel more smoothly.

[0028] Embodiment 3, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the other mechanisms and working processes of this embodiment are the same as those of embodiment 1, but in this embodiment, a mounting groove is provided at the lower end of the side wall of the storage barrel 2, the lower end of the mounting groove and one end of the inner side of the storage barrel 2 are open, the mounting groove is connected to the object-carrying rod 22 through a torsion spring or the like, the upper end surface of the mounting groove and the object-carrying rod 22 can be set to be magnetically connected, and the object-carrying rod 22 can automatically reset to a horizontal state under the action of the torsion spring or the like. The object-carrying rod 22 is arranged in a circular array around the axis of the storage barrel 2, and since the stems and leaves of Artemisia argyi are mostly crossed together, they support each other. In this way, multiple object-carrying rods can effectively prevent Artemisia argyi from getting stuck in the gap between the storage barrel 2 and the workbench 1.

[0029] A push plate 23 is arranged above the processing area. The push plate 23 moves axially along the storage barrel 2 under the drive of the push drive mechanism 24. The push drive mechanism 24 can adopt an existing linear push mechanism such as a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The lower end surface of the push plate 23 is arranged in an arc shape, and the center of the arc faces upward, so as to more conveniently push the carrier rod 22. At the same time, the push plate 23 and the carrier rod 22 can be arranged to be magnetically connected, so that when the push plate 23 rises, it can drive the carrier rod 22 to flip upward to ensure that the carrier rod 22 returns to a horizontal state.

[0030] The upper end of the side wall of the discharge port 4 is provided with a circle of arc grooves 25 concentric therewith, and the center of the arc groove 25 faces the inner side of the storage barrel 2. The side wall of the discharge port 4 is also provided with transverse grooves in a circular array around its axis, and a spring 26 is provided in the groove. In the absence of external force, one end of the spring 26 extends into the discharge port 4, and the position of the spring 26 is adapted to the carrier rod 22.

[0031] Specific working process: When the storage barrel 2 moves to above the discharge port 4, the Artemisia selengensis cannot fall directly downward due to the support of the carrier rod 22 and the cross-intersection between the stems and leaves. When the push plate 23 moves downward under the drive of the push drive mechanism 24, the Artemisia selengensis in the storage barrel 2 can be pushed. After being pushed, the Artemisia selengensis will push the carrier rod 22 away and move downward. Since the Artemisia selengensis has been crossed and tightly stacked together after being pressed, they will not all fall from the storage barrel 2 into the shell 5 for grinding at once. Instead, they are added to the shell 5 in a controlled and gradual manner as the push plate 23 moves, thereby avoiding excessive or insufficient outflow of Artemisia selengensis and ensuring the efficiency and quality of grinding.

[0032] After the Artemisia selengensis is pushed out, the push plate 23 moves upward, and after the carrying rod 22 loses pressure, it flips upward to a horizontal state under the action of the torsion spring and the spring 26. At this time, the push plate 23 and the carrying rod 22 can be set to be magnetically connected, so that the carrying rod 22 can be driven to flip to a horizontal state through the push plate 23. Even if the carrying rod 22 is not completely reset, when the storage barrel 2 moves, the arc groove 25 will also drive the carrying rod 22 to flip to a horizontal state.
