Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of food quick-freezing equipment technology, specifically a fluidized bed type quick-freezing device for granular food. Background Technology
[0002] Quick-freezing is a core technology in modern food processing, capable of preserving the internal moisture, nutrients, and original taste of granular foods to the maximum extent, and extending the food's shelf life. It is currently widely used in the processing of agricultural and sideline products such as fruits and vegetables, grains, seafood, shrimp, and pre-made granular ingredients. Among them, fluidized bed granular food quick-freezing equipment is the core equipment. Compared with traditional immersion and static quick-freezing equipment, it relies on the action of low-temperature and high-speed cold air to make the granular food form a suspended fluidized state on the conveyor belt, realizing all-round heat exchange without dead corners. It has many advantages such as high quick-freezing efficiency, good separation effect of individual food, wide range of applicable materials, and batch continuous operation. It meets the needs of large-scale and assembly line production in modern food processing plants and has now become the mainstream equipment for quick-freezing small and medium-sized granular food.
[0003] In existing fluidized bed quick-freezing devices, the damp materials to be frozen carry moisture, and the hot and humid air from the outside environment can easily enter the low-temperature chamber through the openings at both ends. As the water vapor circulates with the internal cold air, it easily condenses into frost after contacting the low-temperature evaporator, conveyor belt, inner wall of the frame, and air duct structure, and gradually accumulates to form an ice layer. As the ice layer thickens, it will block the ventilation channels, hinder the circulation of cold air, significantly reduce the heat exchange efficiency of the equipment, and increase the energy consumption of the equipment. It is necessary to shut down the machine regularly and rely on manual cleaning with special tools to clean the ice layer inside the equipment, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a fluidized bed quick-freezing device for granular food.
[0004] This de-icing method requires frequent interruptions to the continuous production line, which greatly reduces the effective production time and results in low production efficiency. In addition, the manual cleaning work is labor-intensive and has high maintenance costs. Repeated start-ups and shutdowns of the equipment will also aggravate the wear and tear of internal parts. The alternating hot and cold environment will also affect the service life of the equipment, which seriously restricts the production efficiency and economic benefits of quick-frozen granular food processing enterprises. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fluidized bed type quick-freezing device for granular food, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art regarding the operation of existing fluidized bed quick-freezing devices. These devices are characterized by the presence of moisture in the wet material to be frozen, and the easy intrusion of hot, humid air from the external environment into the low-temperature chamber through the open ends. As the water vapor circulates with the internal cold air, it easily condenses into frost upon contact with the low-temperature evaporator, conveyor belt, inner wall of the frame, and air duct structure, gradually accumulating to form an ice layer. As the ice layer thickens, it blocks ventilation channels, hinders cold air circulation, significantly reduces equipment heat exchange efficiency, increases equipment energy consumption, and requires periodic shutdowns and manual cleaning of the ice layer using specialized tools, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0016] The beneficial effects that can be achieved by the above embodiments of the present invention include: 1. This invention uses a quick-freezing main body to feed granular food into a rotating structure. Simultaneously, the quick-freezing main body creates a low-temperature environment within the rotating structure to achieve the purpose of quick-freezing the granular food. The rotating structure drives the rotating tube to rotate, making the ice formation on the inner wall of the rotating tube more uniform and preventing ice buildup in one area, which would lead to difficult cleaning later. The air blowing mechanism drives the air blowing pipe to rotate, ensuring different air blowing holes face upwards, preventing fixed air blowing holes from being blocked by ice over time. The dehumidification mechanism removes moisture from the circulating cold air, preventing ice buildup and blockage inside the air blowing mechanism. This allows the fluidized bed granular food quick-freezing device to operate continuously for longer periods, improving production efficiency.
[0017] 2. In this invention, while the blowing mechanism drives the blowing pipe to rotate, the arc plate with the beveled blade rotates relative to the blowing pipe. The beveled blade automatically scrapes away the frost on the surface of the blowing pipe in a timely manner. The rotating blowing pipe can drive the cleaning mechanism to move back and forth through the conversion mechanism. The annular conical blade on the cleaning mechanism automatically scrapes away the frost on the surface of the heat exchanger in a timely manner. Through the rotation of the rotary tube, the arc-shaped blade slides on the inner wall of the rotary tube, automatically scraping away the frost on the inner wall of the rotary tube in a timely manner, thereby achieving timely and automatic frost removal, preventing frost from developing into ice, and improving the quick-freezing effect.
[0018] 3. By setting the inner diameter of the left end of the rotary tube to be greater than that of the right end, the ice slag removed from the rotary tube will gradually accumulate to the left inside the rotary tube until it is collected inside the slag discharge mechanism. The slag discharge mechanism makes it easier for people to remove the ice slag without stopping the machine, allowing the fluidized bed granular food quick-freezing device to work continuously for a longer period of time and with higher production efficiency.

[0036] Working principle First, compressor 113 operates under the control of control cabinet 109. Then, compressor 113, connecting pipe 112, heat exchanger 111, and radiator 110 work together to remove heat from the inside of rotary tube 205, reducing its internal temperature. Next, return air fan 305 operates under the control of control cabinet 109. Driven by return air fan 305, air inside rotary tube 205 is blown along the path of small holes on partition plate 303, return air fan 305, return air pipe 306, fixed housing 601, return air box 307, blowing pipe 301, and blowing hole 302 towards heat exchanger 111. Heat exchanger 111 then cools the circulating air. The circulating air then acts on the granular food through small holes on fluidizing perforated belt 105. Afterward, the circulating air blowing over the food surface... The small holes on the partition plate 303 circulate again, and then the control cabinet 109 detects the internal temperature of the rotary tube 205 through the temperature sensor until the internal temperature of the rotary tube 205 reaches the preset value inside the control cabinet 109. Then, the conveyor motor 114 works under the control of the control cabinet 109. After that, the conveyor motor 114 drives the fluidized bed belt 105 to rotate through the feed wheel 103. Then, the fluidized bed belt 105 feeds the granular food on the top surface of its upper belt through the inlet / outlet 106 and window 204 at the left end of the outer casing 101 into the rotary tube 205. Then, the granular food is quickly frozen under the action of circulating air. Then, the fluidized bed belt 105 sends the granular food out through the window 204 and inlet / outlet 106 at the right end of the outer casing 101. During the above operation, the rotary motor 209 controls the rotation of the rotary tube 205. Under the control of cabinet 109, the rotating tube 205 slowly rotates through the meshing action between bevel gear 210 and bevel gear ring 208. Then, the arc-shaped blade 503 slides on the inner wall of the rotating tube 205, promptly scraping away the frost. Next, the tilting motor 309, under the control of cabinet 109, rotates the corresponding air blowing pipe 301. This air blowing pipe 301 rotates synchronously with the other air blowing pipes 301 through the meshing action between two adjacent linkage gears 308. Then, the air blowing pipe 301 continues to slowly tilt, changing the air blowing hole 302 used for ventilation. Then, the arc plate 311 slides on the surface of the air blowing pipe 301, promptly scraping away the frost. Then, the middle air blowing pipe 301 rotates the reciprocating threaded tube 403, followed by the piston... Piston block 402 moves back and forth under the action of its threaded engagement with reciprocating threaded tube 403. Then, piston block 402 moves back and forth with cleaning frame 501 through conversion arm 404 and mounting head 405. Cleaning frame 501 and its cross brace 504 move back and forth with annular conical cutter 502. Annular conical cutter 502 scrapes off the frost formed on the surface of heat exchanger 111. The scraped frost accumulates on the bottom surface of the inner cavity of rotary tube 205. Due to the setting that the inner diameter of the left end of rotary tube 205 is greater than that of the right end, the scraped frost particles will move to the left and pass through slag discharge port 701 and collect in slag discharge pipe 702. When cleaning is required, the whole assembly of shielding strip 707 and linkage strip 708 is pulled upward to release the restriction of shielding strip 707 on wing strip 705.This releases the restriction on the sealing cover 703. Then, the sealing cover 703 is pulled out using handle 704. Next, the frost inside the slag discharge pipe 702 is cleaned. After cleaning, the sealing cover 703 is inserted back into the slag discharge pipe 702. Then, the blocking strip 707 is inserted into the fixing pipe 706. The blocking strip 707 then blocks the wing strip 705, thereby blocking the sealing cover 703.
