Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of raw material storage, and particularly relates to an anti-caking powder storage device. Background Art
[0002] Casings are livestock products made by scraping the large and small intestines of livestock. They are mainly used as outer casings for stuffing sausages and sausages. Sheep casings can also be made into gut strings for making tennis racket strings, bowstrings, and surgical sutures. Casings are divided into three categories according to the type of animal: pig casings, sheep casings, and cattle casings. They can also be divided into small intestine casings and large intestine casings. The basic function of casings is to ensure that sausages do not deteriorate under certain conditions and within a certain period of time to meet the needs of storage and circulation. This function is provided by the barrier properties of the casings, namely oxygen barrier properties, water vapor barrier properties, and aroma barrier properties. Currently, during the production and processing of casings, powder storage devices are mainly used to store powdered materials related to casing processing, such as salt, preservatives, food additives, etc.

[0027] refer to Figure 3-Figure 4 The stirring mechanism 6 includes a second motor 61, which is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the cover body 4. The output end of the second motor 61 passes through the cover body 4 and is fixedly installed with a rotating shaft 62.

The lower end of the scraper 63 is in a conical shape. The lower end of the scraper 63 is fitted and connected to the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5. The second motor 61 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the cover body 4 to provide power for the stirring mechanism 6. Its output end passes through the cover body 4 and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 62. When the second motor 61 is started, its power will be transmitted to the rotating shaft 62 to drive it to rotate. Scrapers 63 are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the outer surface of the shaft 62. These scrapers 63 rotate with the rotation of the rotating shaft 62. The outer side of the scraper 63 fits tightly with the inner wall of the tank body 3 to ensure that every corner of the inner wall of the tank body 3 can be covered during the stirring process to prevent the powder from agglomerating on the inner wall of the tank body 3. It is specially designed that the overall shape of the lower end of the scraper 63 is conical. This shape enables the scraper 63 to better fit the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5 during rotation. Since the discharge hopper 5 is the key part for powder discharge, powder is easy to accumulate here, and the scraper 63 with a conical design can easily scrape off the powder accumulated on the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5 to ensure smooth discharge and stirring and mixing of the powder.
[0028] refer to Figure 3The outer surface of the rotating shaft 62 is fixedly mounted with a second auger 64, which is arranged on the inner side of the scraper 63. The lower end of the second auger 64 is also arranged in a conical shape. The second auger 64 is arranged on the inner side of the scraper 63, which means that when the rotating shaft 62 rotates, the second auger 64 and the scraper 63 will work at the same time, and the spiral blade structure of the second auger 64 can help further stir and transport the powder in the tank body 3. When the rotating shaft 62 rotates, the spiral blades of the second auger 64 will push the powder to circulate in the tank body 3, ensuring that the powder To obtain sufficient mixing, it is worth noting that the lower end of the second auger 64 is also configured to be conical. This conical design has several advantages: first, it helps the powder to flow smoothly at the discharge hopper 5, because the conical structure can gradually reduce the contact area with the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5 and reduce resistance; secondly, the conical design can better cooperate with the scraper 63 to ensure that when the scraper 63 scrapes off the powder on the inner wall of the discharge hopper 5, the second auger 64 can assist in pushing the remaining powder to the discharge port, thereby avoiding powder residue and waste.
[0029] refer to Figure 3 , the outer side of the cover body 4 is fixedly installed with fixing plates 14 at equal intervals, and the lower ends of the fixing plates 14 on both sides of the fixing plates 14 arranged at equal intervals are threadedly connected with hand-tightened screws 15, and the top of the tank body 3 is provided with square grooves 16 at equal intervals, and the fixing plates 14 are inserted into the inner side of the square grooves 16, and the outer end of the hand-tightened screw 15 is fixedly installed with an adjustment handle, and the outer surface of the adjustment handle is provided with anti-slip protrusions at equal intervals. Among the fixing plates 14, the lower ends of the fixing plates 14 on both sides are threadedly connected with hand-tightened screws 15. At the same time, the top of the tank body 3 is also provided with square grooves 16 corresponding to the fixing plates 14 at equal intervals. When the cover body 4 is placed on the tank body 3, the fixing plates 14 will be inserted into the square grooves The inner side of the groove 16 is tightly connected to the tank body 3. In order to adjust the connection tightness between the fixing plate 14 and the tank body 3, the hand-tightening screw 15 is used for fine-tuning. By rotating the adjustment handle, the hand-tightening screw 15 can be conveniently tightened or loosened, thereby realizing the control of the connection firmness between the cover body 4 and the tank body 3. The outer surface of the adjustment handle is provided with anti-slip protrusions at equal intervals. These protrusions not only increase the friction between the adjustment handle and the palm to prevent slipping during the adjustment process, but also make the adjustment process more comfortable and labor-saving. The setting of the hand-tightening screw 15 also facilitates manual disassembly and assembly of the top of the cover body 4, facilitates disassembly and separation, and facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the device.

At this time, by starting the electric heating inner plate 12 to operate, the electric heating inner plate 12 heats the inside of the tube body, so that the inside of the tube body can be heated. At this time, by starting the second motor 61 to operate, the second motor 61 can drive the rotating shaft 62 to drive the second auger 64 to rotate. The raw materials inside the tank body 3 can be stirred by the rotation of the second auger 64, so that the material can be evenly rolled up and down inside the tube body, and the whole material can be evenly rolled and stirred inside the tube body, so that the powder can be quickly dried. At the same time, the stirring setting itself can also avoid the phenomenon of agglomeration of the material. At the same time, the design of the auger can convey the powder so that the powder can be quickly discharged through the discharge valve 8 and the discharge pipe 9, which is convenient for the device to discharge raw materials;
[0031] By setting the conveying mechanism 7, during the use of the device, the material inside the tank body 3 can be discharged to the inside of the side tube 71 through the discharge pipe 73. At this time, by starting the first motor 742 to run, the first motor 742 is used to drive the first auger 743 to rotate. The rotation of the first auger 743 can drive the material at the bottom of the side tube 71 to roll upward and convey, so that the material can be quickly and evenly discharged upward through the side tube 71. At this time, the material can be re-discharged to the inside of the tank body 3 through the conveying pipe 72. At this time, the material inside the tank body 3 can be efficiently and evenly mixed up and down, which can further improve the efficiency of the tumbling of the material inside the tank body 3 of the device, improve the uniformity and efficiency of the internal heating of the device as a whole during use, and further improve the agglomeration function of the device.
