Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of dough mixers, and in particular to a dough mixer control system. Background Art
[0002] When processing pasta products, the flour needs to be mixed with water first to form a dough. The flour then gradually absorbs water and expands, bonding to each other, forming a structure with elasticity, extensibility, viscosity and plasticity, which can be easily made into the required shape.

This application has the effect of facilitating the removal of the mixed dough.
[0004] However, in the actual operation of the dough mixer, workers need to manually adjust the water source based on their experience, which not only increases the labor intensity, but also makes it difficult to ensure the accuracy of each ratio, which in turn affects the final quality of the dough. Secondly, the timing of adding water is also completely dependent on the workers' control. Workers need to constantly observe the state of the dough during the dough mixing process and adjust the amount of water added in a timely manner. This method of relying on manual judgment not only increases the difficulty of operation, but is also easily affected by factors such as workers' experience and fatigue, resulting in inaccurate timing of water addition, which in turn affects the uniformity and consistency of the dough.

[0037] It should be noted that the rack 1 is the existing rack and its stirring mechanism in the comparative document.
[0038] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows: two support plates 5 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the flour hopper 3, and a weight sensor 6 is installed between the support plate 5 and the frame 1. When flour enters the flour hopper 3, the weight sensor 6 will measure the weight of the flour in real time and transmit the data to the control processor 20. An electric valve 4 is installed at the bottom of the flour hopper 3. When the control processor 20 receives enough flour weight signals, it will control the electric valve 4 to open, allowing flour to enter the interior of the frame 1 through the flour inlet pipe 2. The water storage tank 8 is used to store clean water or other liquid raw materials. A stirring shaft 9 and a stirring blade 10 are arranged inside the water storage tank 8, which can be driven by a motor 14 for stirring to ensure that yeast and the like are evenly mixed and controlled. The processor 20 calculates the required amount of water according to the weight of flour measured by the weighing sensor 6 and the preset ratio of flour to water, and accurately controls the water source of the water inlet pipe 11 to enter the water storage tank 8 by controlling the switch of the solenoid valve 17. At the same time, the liquid level sensor 15 monitors the water level in the water storage tank 8 in real time to ensure that the water source is not excessive. When the amount of water in the water storage tank 8 reaches the preset value, the control processor 20 will start the pump body 18 to transport the water source to the mixing chamber of the dough mixer through the water outlet pipe 12. The timer 19 can be used to conveniently time the mixing time of the dough, automatically control the start of the pump body 18, and automatically control the timing and amount of water addition to improve the quality of dough.
