Many food additives are toxic, and some are highly toxic. However, as long as food additives are within the specified scope and dosage in food, they are harmless to the human body. In the production process of food additives, various raw materials need to be accurately and efficiently transported to different processing links. Due to its simple structure and stable transportation, the spiral feeding device is widely used in food additive production.
[0003] After retrieval, a detachable spiral feeder that is easy to operate with the authorization announcement number of CN113200318B includes a feeding hopper. A fixing frame is fixedly installed outside the feeding hopper. A rotating connector is movably installed inside the fixing frame. A servo motor is fixedly installed above the rotating connector. A first feeding pipe with the top connected to the feeding hopper is fixedly installed outside the servo motor. A connecting shaft located outside the first feeding pipe is fixedly installed on the right side of the fixing frame. For this detachable spiral feeder that is easy to operate, by setting the fixing frame to fixedly install the feeding hopper and setting the receiving groove opened at the top of the first feeding pipe to be rotatably connected to the bottom of the feeding hopper, the connection between the feeding hopper and the first feeding pipe is stable and will not be detached during adjustment.

[0026] Advantages of the present invention:
[0027] A screw feeding device for food additive production provided by the present invention divides the aggregate box into multiple classification cavities of the same volume through a partition plate arranged in the aggregate box, which can classify and store different types of food additive raw materials. The height of the quantitative feeding assembly is adjusted by a lifting assembly, so that the quantitative rack passes through the material guiding cylinder to realize the function of quantitative feeding, meeting the precise proportioning requirements of different food additive raw materials in the production process.
[0028] A screw feeding device for food additive production provided by the present invention, through a provided sealing assembly, can reduce the height of the sealing assembly under the action of the lifting assembly, so that the sealing assembly closely adheres to the feeding port of the food additive production equipment, and an elastic force is provided by a second spring. When an external force acts on the sealing cover, the ball sleeve can move within a certain range, enabling the sealing cover to better fit around the discharge pipe, ensuring the sealing effect at the discharge pipe, preventing material leakage and entry of external impurities, and ensuring the hygiene of the production environment and the quality of the materials.
[0029] A screw feeding device for food additive production provided by the present invention, through a provided anti-blocking assembly, when the threaded column rises and falls with the lifting assembly, since the threaded column is screwed with the threaded groove on the inner wall of the rotating cylinder, the rotating cylinder will rotate. The rotation of the rotating cylinder drives the transmission shaft to rotate through bevel gears, and the transmission shaft drives the stirring shaft and stirring blades to rotate through a transmission belt, thereby using the rotating stirring blades to stir the food additive raw materials in the classification cavity, enabling the food additive raw materials to better enter the quantitative feeding assembly and preventing the additive raw materials from accumulating and blocking the inlet of the material guiding cylinder.
[0030] A screw feeding device for food additive production provided by the present invention has a variable pitch design for the screw blades. The pitch at the end near the feeding port is smaller, and as the material is conveyed towards the discharge port, the pitch gradually increases. This design enables the material to be subjected to a greater extrusion force during the initial feeding stage, facilitating the compaction of the material and its smooth introduction into the feeding cylinder. During the conveying process, as the pitch increases, the pressure on the material gradually decreases, avoiding damage to the material due to excessive extrusion and ensuring the conveying speed and stability of the material.
[0031] A screw feeding device for food additive production provided by the present invention, through a provided air sweeping assembly, uses an air pump to introduce gas into the hollow channel through an air inlet pipe, and the gas is ejected through a nozzle to blow the material on the variable pitch auger blades, preventing the material from adhering to the blades. At the same time, the staggered positions of the nozzles and the blades can make the blowing more comprehensive, further ensuring the accuracy of feeding and the cleanliness of the equipment. And the plugging head on the inner wall of the nozzle seals the air spraying holes under the action of a first spring. When there is sufficient air pressure, the plugging head is pushed open, and air is ejected from the air spraying holes. Description of the Drawings

One end of the connecting frame 604 is installed on the outer wall of the sleeve 1101, and a lifting disc 605 is fixed to the other end of the connecting frame 604. Connecting rods 606 are fixed between the tops of the threaded columns 22 and the bottom of the lifting disc 605. By using the second hydraulic cylinder 602 of the lifting assembly 6 to push the lifting frame 603 to move up and down, the lifting frame 603 drives the sleeve 1101 and the lifting disc 605 to lift synchronously through the connecting frame 604, thereby realizing the lifting control of the metering frame 23 and the sealing assembly 11;

[0058] Specifically, support seats 19 are fixed on both sides of the top of the frame 1, and rotating shafts 20 are rotatably arranged on the support seats 19. The centralized box 3 is fixedly installed between one ends of the two rotating shafts 20. Universal wheels are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the frame 1. An installation base 7 is installed on the outer wall of the feeding hopper 9, and a first hydraulic cylinder 12 is rotatably arranged between the bottom of the installation base 7 and one end of the top of the frame 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the angle between the feeding cylinder 9 and the frame 1 can be changed by the first hydraulic cylinder 12.

[0060] Specifically, a controller 2 is installed on one side of the frame 1, and the controller 2 is electrically connected to the drive motor 16.

[0061] Embodiment 2:
[0062] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10, in this embodiment compared with the first embodiment, the air-sweeping assembly 8 includes a hollow channel 806 formed in the spiral shaft 13, and an air hood 803 is installed at the top end of the hollow channel 806. An air inlet pipe 802 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the air hood 803. An air pump 801 is installed on the other side of the top of the mounting seat 7. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the air pump 801, and the exhaust end of the air pump 801 is fixedly connected to the air inlet pipe 802. A plurality of nozzles 804 are installed at the top and bottom of the hollow channel 806, and the positions of the nozzles 804 are staggered with the blade positions of the variable-pitch auger blades 14. The inner wall of the nozzle 804 is designed in a T shape. A plug 807 is attached to the inner wall of the nozzle 804. First springs 808 are installed at the top of the plug 807 and the top inner wall of the nozzle 804. The nozzle 804 is provided with equally spaced air holes 805. The plug 807 seals the air holes 805. With the above-mentioned air-sweeping assembly 8, the air pump 801 is used to transport air through the air inlet pipe 802 to the air hood 803, and then into the hollow channel 806 on the spiral shaft 13. The nozzles 804 on the hollow channel 806 eject the air. Since the positions of the nozzles 804 are staggered with the blade positions of the variable-pitch auger blades 14, the ejected air can blow the food additive raw materials attached to the variable-pitch auger blades 14, preventing the additive raw materials from sticking to the blades and ensuring smooth feeding. Moreover, the plug 807 on the inner wall of the nozzle 804 seals the air holes 805 under the action of the first spring 808. When there is sufficient air pressure, the plug 807 is pushed open and the air is ejected from the air holes 805.
[0063] In summary, by means of the above technical solutions of the present invention, the working principle of the present invention is as follows: The partition plate 18 is used to divide the interior of the aggregate bin 4 into a plurality of classification chambers 21 of the same volume, which can store different types or different specifications of food additive raw materials respectively. The inclined seat 17 at the bottom of the classification chamber 21 makes it easier for the additive raw materials to slide towards the metering frame 23. The bottom of the centralized bin 3 is designed with an inclined surface, which is convenient for the additive raw materials to flow centrally towards the feed pipe 15 and enter the feeding cylinder 9 for feeding.
[0064] By the telescoping of the first hydraulic cylinder 12, the angle between the feeding cylinder 9 and the frame 1 can be changed. When it is necessary to adjust the feeding height or adapt to different production layouts, the first hydraulic cylinder 12 can be operated to make the feeding cylinder 9 rotate around its rotation point with the frame 1 to reach a suitable inclination angle.
[0065] During feeding, the second hydraulic cylinder 602 in the lifting assembly 6 is used to push the lifting frame 603 up and down. The lifting frame 603 drives the sleeve 1101 and the lifting disc 605 to lift and lower synchronously through the connecting frame 604. The lifting disc 605 is connected to the threaded column 22 on the metering frame 23 through the connecting rod 606. Thus, the lifting control of the metering frame 23 and the sealing assembly 11 is realized, and the opening size of the material guiding cylinder 24 is controlled, so as to realize the quantitative feeding of the food additive raw materials entering the centralized box 3 from the classification chamber 21. Meanwhile, under the action of the lifting assembly 6, the height of the sealing assembly 11 is reduced, so that the sealing assembly 11 is closely attached to the feeding port of the food additive production equipment, and the elastic force is provided by the second spring 1103. When an external force acts on the sealing cover 1102, the ball sleeve 1104 can move within a certain range, so that the sealing cover 1102 can better fit around the discharge pipe 10, which can ensure the sealing effect at the discharge pipe 10, prevent material leakage and entry of external impurities. Then, the driving motor 16 is used to drive the spiral shaft 13 to rotate, and the variable pitch auger blades 14 on the spiral shaft 13 push the additive raw materials in the feeding cylinder 9 upward and finally discharge from the discharge pipe 10.
[0066] In the lower anti-blocking assembly 5, when the threaded column 22 rises and falls with the lifting assembly 6, since the threaded column 22 is screwed with the thread groove 508 on the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 502, the rotating cylinder 502 will rotate. The rotation of the rotating cylinder 502 drives the transmission shaft 504 to rotate through the bevel gear 503. The transmission shaft 504 drives the stirring shaft 506 and the stirring blades 507 to rotate through the transmission belt 505. The food additive raw materials in the classification chamber 21 are stirred by the stirring blades 507 to prevent the additive raw materials from piling up and blocking the inlet of the material guiding cylinder 24, so that the food additive raw materials can better enter the metering frame 23.
[0067] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
