Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of transfer devices, and in particular relates to a transfer device for sugar-mixed vegetable immersion. Background Art
[0002] Vegetables have become an indispensable and important food in people's diet. However, the water content of vegetables is about 90%, which brings considerable difficulties to the harvesting, transportation, storage, and management of vegetables. The existing technical means for controlling the quality of vegetables have defects such as high processing costs and poor preservation effects. In this case, dehydrated vegetables came into being. It is a kind of dried vegetables made by removing most of the water from fresh vegetables. The production process is to wash, select, scald, cool, shake off, add sugar, stir, and dry fresh vegetables, and finally make dehydrated vegetables (dried vegetables). When eating, just immerse it in boiling water to recover, and then cook it normally.
[0003] However, the existing production process of dehydrated vegetables is as follows: after adding sugar and stirring, the vegetables are directly transferred to the drying equipment for drying by a screw conveyor. The sugar and vegetables will be separated in the spiral conveyor and quickly sent to the drying equipment. There is no space and time for the two to fully merge, resulting in the sugar not being able to enter the vegetables well, affecting the taste of the dehydrated vegetables, and the water inside cannot be pickled out well, increasing the subsequent drying cost. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the problem that the current method of making dehydrated vegetables uses a screw conveyor to transport the vegetables mixed with sugar to the drying equipment, which results in insufficient time and space for the sugar and vegetables to merge, which is not conducive to the sugar entering the vegetables, affecting the taste of the dehydrated vegetables, and failing to pickle the internal water well, thereby increasing the subsequent drying costs.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a device for transferring vegetables mixed with sugar by immersion, comprising a conveying device and a plurality of immersion material barrels, the conveying device comprising a frame, a chain belt, an active rotating wheel, a passive rotating wheel and a motor, the active rotating wheel and the passive rotating wheel are respectively rotatably connected to the two ends of the frame, the chain belt is wrapped around the active rotating wheel and the passive rotating wheel, the motor body is fixed on the frame, the output shaft of the motor is coaxially fixed with the active rotating wheel, and the outer surface of the chain belt fixes a plurality of the immersion material barrels along its circumferential direction.
[0006] Preferably, two annular limit baffles are fixed on both sides of the frame, and two width edges of the chain belt respectively contact the two annular limit baffles.
[0007] Preferably, the diameter of the immersion material barrel gradually decreases from top to bottom.
[0008] Preferably, the chain belt includes a chain plate, and the bottom of each of the immersion barrels is fixed to one of the chain plates via a connecting block, and the connecting block is integrally formed and connected to the chain plate.
[0009] Preferably, a gradient groove is provided on the outer surface of each of the annular limit baffles, including a small diameter section I and a large diameter section I whose widths gradually increase from the outside to the inside, and a number of step sliders matching the shape of the gradient groove are placed in the gradient groove, and the number of the step sliders corresponds to the number of the immersion material barrels, and the step sliders include a small diameter section II and a large diameter section II, and the small diameter section II extends out of the surface of the gradient groove, and the two sides of each of the immersion material barrels are respectively fixed to the parts of the two step sliders on the frame that extend out of the gradient groove.
[0010] Preferably, it also includes a clamp clamped on the outer peripheral surface of the immersion barrel, the clamp is formed by a first semicircular arc segment and a second semicircular arc segment being connected together, and the first semicircular arc segment and the second semicircular arc segment are respectively fixed to the parts of two step sliders on the frame extending out of the gradient groove through a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod.
[0011] The technical solution of the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The conveyor of the utility model is a surrounding chain belt structure, and a number of surrounding immersion barrels are fixed on the outer peripheral surface of the chain belt. The vegetables mixed with sugar fall into each transferred immersion barrel. Since the sugar and vegetables are placed in the same container (immersion barrel), the vegetables and sugar can be fully and long-term contact, ensuring that the sugar can enter the vegetables and the water in the vegetables can be pickled by the sugar. When the immersion barrel is transferred to the corner at one end of the frame, the immersion barrel will slowly tilt and finally face vertically downward, and finally the material in the immersion barrel (vegetables mixed with sugar) is poured out (poured into the feed bin of the next process equipment below the frame).
[0013] The utility model uses a motor to move the chain, and the transmission speed of the chain can be reduced by reducing the speed of the motor, which also delays the tipping time of the immersion barrel, which is beneficial for manufacturers to adjust the time for the fusion of sugar and vegetables according to vegetable varieties, external conditions, etc. during production.

[0021] The technical solution of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0023] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" 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 it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0024] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0025] The utility model provides a device for transferring vegetables mixed with sugar by immersion, comprising a conveying device 1 and a plurality of immersion material barrels 2, wherein the conveying device 1 comprises a frame 11, a chain belt 12, an active rotating wheel 13, a passive rotating wheel 14 and a motor 15, wherein the active rotating wheel 13 and the passive rotating wheel 14 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the frame 11 respectively, the chain belt 12 surrounds the active rotating wheel 13 and the passive rotating wheel 14, the motor 15 body is fixed on the frame 11, the output shaft of the motor 15 is coaxially fixed with the active rotating wheel 13, and the outer surface of the chain belt 12 is fixed with a plurality of immersion material barrels 2 along its peripheral direction.
[0026] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: after the motor 15 is started, it drives the active rotating wheel 13 to rotate, thereby causing the chain sleeved on the active rotating wheel 13 and the passive rotating wheel 14 to move, and when the chain moves, it drives the immersion material barrel 2 to move. Of course, when the sensor fixed near the discharge nozzle of the previous process equipment senses that there is a soaking barrel 2 below, it will send a signal to the motor 15, and the motor 15 will stop working immediately, so that the soaking barrel 2 is stationary, which is convenient for the discharge nozzle of the previous process equipment to input the material into the soaking barrel 2. After a period of time (just when the soaking barrel 2 is full of material), the motor 15 automatically starts and continues to drive the soaking barrel 2 to move. When the next soaking barrel 2 is moved to the bottom of the discharge nozzle, the motor 15 stops working again... In addition, when the soaking barrel 2 is moved to the corner at one end of the frame 11, the soaking barrel 2 will slowly tilt and finally face vertically downward. Finally, the material (vegetables mixed with sugar) in the soaking barrel 2 is poured out (poured into the feed bin of the next process equipment below the frame 11). And by reducing the speed of the motor 15, the transfer speed of the soaking barrel 2 can be slowed down.
[0027] Compared with the previous method of conveying using a screw conveyor, this method places sugar and vegetables in the same container (immersion barrel 2), so that the vegetables and sugar can be in full and prolonged contact, ensuring that the sugar can enter the vegetables and the water in the vegetables can be pickled out by the sugar.
[0028] In order to prevent the chain from tilting in the left-right direction and failing to transmit normally, two annular limit baffles 3 are fixed on both sides of the frame 11 , and two width edges of the chain belt 12 are in contact with the two annular limit baffles 3 .
[0029] In order to prevent the material poured into the immersion material barrel 2 from hanging on the wall of the immersion material barrel 2, causing the material to be blocked above the immersion material barrel 2 and overflow, the diameter of the immersion material barrel 2 gradually decreases from top to bottom. The material that contacts the inner wall of the immersion material barrel 2 will slide down due to the structural design of the immersion material barrel 2.
[0030] The chain belt 12 is connected by a plurality of chain pieces 121 . The bottom of each immersion material barrel 2 is fixed to one of the chain pieces 121 via a connecting block 4 . The connecting block 4 and the chain piece 121 are integrally formed and connected.
[0031] Each annular limiting baffle 3 is provided with a gradient groove 31 on its outer surface, including a small diameter section I311 and a large diameter section I312 whose width gradually increases from the outside to the inside. A plurality of step sliders 5 matching the shape of the gradient groove 31 are placed in the gradient groove 31. The number of step sliders 5 corresponds to the number of immersion barrels 2. The step sliders 5 include a small diameter section II51 and a large diameter section II52, and the small diameter section II51 extends out of the surface of the gradient groove 31. The two sides of each immersion barrel 2 are respectively fixed to the parts of the two step sliders 5 on the frame 11 extending out of the gradient groove 31. Through the connection between the slider and the immersion barrel 2, the pressure of the immersion barrel 2 on the chain is dispersed, the influence on the movement of the chain is reduced, and a guiding effect is provided for the movement of the immersion barrel 2, so as to ensure that the immersion barrel 2 will not shake left and right during the transfer process. The step slider 5 is placed in the gradient groove 31, and is limited up, down, left and right by the gradient groove 31, and can only move forward and backward (in the same direction as the movement of the immersion barrel 2).
[0032] Specifically, the utility model further includes a clamp 6 clamped on the outer peripheral surface of the immersion barrel 2, the clamp 6 is formed by a first semicircular arc segment 61 and a second semicircular arc segment 62, and the first semicircular arc segment 61 and the second semicircular arc segment 62 are respectively fixed to the parts of the two step sliders 5 on the frame 11 extending out of the gradient groove 31 through the first connecting rod 7 and the second connecting rod 8. Through the arrangement of the clamp 6, the first connecting rod 7 and the second connecting rod 8, the barrel is respectively fixed to the parts of the step slider 5 extending out of the gradient groove 31.
[0033] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention of the utility model.
