Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of betel nut processing devices, in particular to a seed steaming mechanism used for betel nut seed pressing and molding equipment. Background Art
[0002] Areca catechu L. is an evergreen tree of the Magnoliaceae, Primitales, Arecaceae, and Areca genus. It has an erect, tree-like stem, more than 10 meters high and up to 30 meters high, with obvious annular leaf scars. It is monoecious, with many branches in the inflorescence, oblong ovary, oblong or ovoid fruit, ovate seeds, and the flowering and fruiting period is March-April.
[0003] Betel nut is native to Malaysia and is widely cultivated in tropical areas such as Yunnan, Hainan and Taiwan in China. Betel nut is an important Chinese medicinal material. Some ethnic minorities in the south also chew the fruit as a hobby. Whether it is raw or cooked, it is chewed but not swallowed. The juice has the effects of removing rheumatism, refreshing, strengthening the stomach and aiding digestion. Many people in several provinces in southern my country eat it as chewing gum. With the scientific and rational processing technology, the consumption population has gradually spread to the north.
[0004] In the betel nut processing, there is a process of pressing seeds after heating and rolling. The process of pressing seeds usually requires heating and softening the dried betel nuts. In the prior art, the dried betel nuts are usually put into a seed steaming and softening device separately, which cannot be added to the main body of the seed pressing device, requiring a larger production space, and each betel nut has no independent placement space when the seeds are steamed and softened, which easily leads to uneven softening of the seeds.
[0005] Therefore, designing a seed steaming mechanism for betel nut seed pressing and molding equipment, which can be adapted to be installed on general automatic seed pressing equipment and allow each betel nut to have an independent placement space for uniform softening, is a direction that technicians in this field need to further develop.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third" and the like are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0021] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the output end of the seed steaming motor 1 is adapted to be connected with the upper plate chain group 2, and a plurality of seed steaming plates 3 are evenly and detachably arranged on the surface of the upper plate chain group 2, and a plurality of through holes 5 are provided at the bottom of the seed steaming plates 3; a steam inlet pipeline group 4 is provided on the inner side of the upper plate chain group 2, and a plurality of steaming holes 6 are evenly opened on the steam inlet pipeline group 4. An exhaust fan is provided above the upper plate chain group 2 (not shown in the accompanying drawings, which is the structure of a common exhaust fan on the market, and the utility model has not made any improvement). It can be adapted to be installed on betel nut seed pressing equipment of different specifications, and the steam sprayed from the steam inlet pipeline group 4 can be absorbed through the through holes 5 at the bottom of the seed steaming plate 3. There are also corresponding openings on the upper plate chain group 2, so that the betel nut in each independent seed steaming groove 7 is evenly softened, and the excess steam can be extracted by the exhaust fan, so that there will not be too much residual steam on the betel nut. The overall structure is simple and convenient to use. When the betel nuts are transported from right to left, they are transported to the left end of the upper plate chain group 2. At this time, the betel nuts in a row of steamed seed plates 3 at the left end will fall down and enter the next pressing process.
[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, a group of seed steaming plates 3 are provided with five seed steaming grooves 7, and the through holes 5 all penetrate the bottom of the seed steaming grooves 7. The depth of the seed steaming grooves 7 is 3-6 cm, which is convenient for accommodating betel nuts and preventing the betel nuts from running out of the seed steaming grooves 7.
[0024] The diameter of the steaming hole 6 is smaller than the diameter of the through hole 5 , and the number of the steaming holes 6 is greater than the number of the through holes 5 , so that when the steam is discharged from the steam inlet pipeline group 4 , it is convenient for the steam to pass through the through holes 5 more evenly and finely into the seed steaming groove 7 .
[0025] The output end of the seed steaming motor 1 is connected to one of the rotating shafts 8. The two rotating shafts 8 are both provided with tension bearings 9. A sprocket 10 is provided inside the tension bearings 9. A circulating chain 11 is provided at the end of the upper plate chain group 2. The circulating chain 11 is engaged with the sprocket 10. One seed steaming motor 1 can drive the movement of the entire upper plate chain group 2, which is convenient and efficient. Figure 1 As shown, in order to clearly see the sprocket 10 in the figure, Figure 1 The ends of the middle circulating chain 11 are not completely closed. In actual use, the circulating chain 11 is closed around the two sprockets 10 .
[0026] The above are only preferred specific implementation methods of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical scheme and utility model concept of the utility model, should be covered by the protection scope of the utility model.
