Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing, and in particular relates to a bamboo shoot rapid cooling device. Background Art

[0002] Bamboo shoots refer to the young shoots of bamboo, also known as bamboo shoots. The edible parts are the nascent, tender, plump, short and strong shoots and whips. Bamboo is produced in China and has many types. Bamboo shoots contain many trace elements. The existing bamboo shoot processing process is mostly to steam the bamboo shoots first, but the temperature of the bamboo shoots after steaming is too high and cannot be directly stored. At present, people still use cold water to cool the bamboo shoots, which is a waste of water resources.

[0003] The existing patent with announcement number CN219976862U discloses a food cooling device, including a conveyor belt, a support frame is fixedly arranged on the fixed edge of the surface of the conveyor belt, a plurality of first shower plates are arranged on the lower surface of the support frame, and a first water receiving port is arranged on the upper end of the support frame; a water receiving trough is arranged below the conveyor belt, and a first water outlet is opened on the water receiving trough; a cooling table is arranged on the right side of the conveyor belt, a second shower plate is arranged on the upper end of the cooling table, a slope is arranged on the outer wall of the cooling table, a water storage tank is arranged at the bottom of the slope, and a second water outlet is arranged on the water storage tank; a fixed frame is arranged between the cooling table and the conveyor belt, a plurality of second fans are arranged on the fixed frame, the first water outlet is connected to the second water receiving port through a water pipe and a water pump, and the second water outlet is connected to the first water receiving port through a water pipe and a water pump.

The motor 2 is fixedly mounted on one of the support frames 1, and the output shaft of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to one of the transmission rollers 3. The support frames 1, the motor 2, the plurality of transmission rollers 3 and the conveyor belt 4 together constitute a belt conveyor.

[0028] A cooling box 8 and a guide plate are fixedly arranged between the two support frames 1, and both the cooling box 8 and the guide plate are located below the conveyor belt 4. The top of the cooling box 8 is open, and a clearance hole is provided at the top of one side of the cooling box 8. The cooling box 8 and the guide plate are fixedly connected to the opposite side walls of the two support frames 1. The guide plate is inclined, and the lower end of the guide plate is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the cooling box 8 and is inclined to the opening at the top of the cooling box 8. The guide plate plays a guiding role, and is used to ensure that all the water dripping from the conveyor belt 4 falls into the cooling box 8.

[0029] A stirring assembly for stirring the coolant in the cooling box 8 is provided in the cooling box 8, and the stirring assembly cooperates with the conveyor belt 4 in transmission. The stirring assembly includes a connecting plate 9, which is fixedly arranged inside the cooling box 8, and a rotating rod 11 is vertically penetrated through the connecting plate 9, and the rotating rod 11 is rotatably connected with the connecting plate 9. A plurality of stirring rods 12 and a transmission rod 10 are fixedly arranged on the outer surface of the rotating rod 11, and the plurality of transmission rods 10 are distributed in a circular array about the central axis of the rotating rod 11. A plurality of driving rods 5 are fixedly arranged on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 4, and the plurality of driving rods 5 are arranged around the conveyor belt 4 in a circle along the direction of movement of the conveyor belt 4. Each driving rod 5 can pass through the clearance hole, and each driving rod 5 is in contact with the transmission rod 10 for transmission. The driving rod 5 itself has a certain elasticity, and is specifically a rubber product, which is used to ensure that the conveyor belt 4 drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate through the contact and cooperation transmission between the driving rod 5 and the transmission rod 10.

[0030] A water pipe 14 is connected to one side of the cooling box 8, and a water pump 13 is fixedly installed at the connection between the cooling box 8 and the water pipe 14. A nozzle 15 is connected to the pipe opening of the water pipe 14 away from the cooling box 8, and the nozzle 15 is located above the conveyor belt 4, and the output end of the nozzle 15 faces the conveyor belt 4. It is convenient to spray and cool the bamboo shoots on the conveyor belt 4.

[0031] The top of the support frame 1 is fixedly provided with a mounting frame 6, on which a fan 7 is fixedly installed, and the air outlet of the fan 7 faces the conveyor belt 4. The fan 7 is located behind the nozzle 15 in the direction of transmission of the conveyor belt 4, so as to dry the water on the surface of the bamboo shoots and perform secondary cooling.

[0032] Working principle of embodiment 1: Place the bamboo shoots to be cooled on the conveyor belt 4. Start the water pump 13, which transports the cooling water in the cooling box 8 to the water pipe 14 and sprays it out from the nozzle 15 of the water pipe 14. Start the motor 2, and the output shaft of the motor 2 drives the conveyor belt 4 to drive through the transmission roller 3. The conveyor belt 4 drags the bamboo shoots for transmission. When the conveyor belt 4 drives the bamboo shoots to the bottom of the nozzle 15, the cooling water sprayed from the nozzle 15 will spray the surface of the bamboo shoots to cool them down. As the conveyor belt 4 is continuously driven, when the bamboo shoots are driven to the bottom of the mounting frame 6. Start the fan 7, which will air-cool the bamboo shoots. While drying the cooling water on the surface of the bamboo shoots, the bamboo shoots can be cooled down for a second time.

[0033] The cooling water dripping on the conveyor belt 4 will pass through the through hole and gather in the cooling box 8. During the transmission of the conveyor belt 4, it will drive several driving rods 5 to move synchronously along the transmission direction of the conveyor belt 4. In the initial state, a transmission rod 10 is located between two driving rods 5. Along the transmission direction of the conveyor belt 4, the driving rod 5 located behind the transmission rod 10 will push the transmission rod 10 to rotate around the central axis of the rotating rod 11 until the transmission rod 10 is separated from the two driving rods 5 and the next transmission rod 10 is located between the two driving rods 5. Thereby, the continuous rotation of the rotating rod 11 is realized, and then the several stirring rods 12 are driven to rotate around the central axis of the rotating rod 11 through the rotating rod 11, thereby accelerating the cooling of the cooling water. The cooled cooling water will be sprayed out again through the nozzle 15.

[0034] Embodiment 2: Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, the difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the stirring assembly includes a limit plate 22, and the limit plate 22 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the cooling box 8. A movable plate 21 is set to slide up and down in the limit plate 22, and a movable frame 23 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the movable plate 21, and a waist-shaped groove guide rail 20 is fixedly arranged on the top of the movable plate 21. A tooth plate 16 is fixedly arranged on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 4, and the tooth plate 16 is specifically a flexible rack, and the second tooth plate 16 is arranged around the conveyor belt 4 in a circle along the direction of movement of the conveyor belt 4. A connecting rod 17 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the cooling box 8, and a gear 18 is coaxially fixedly arranged on the end of the connecting rod 17 that is not connected to the cooling box 8. The gear 18 is located below the tooth plate 16, and the gear 18 is meshed with the part of the tooth plate 16 located in the horizontal state of the conveyor belt 4 for transmission, which is used to ensure that the transmission of the tooth plate 16 can drive the gear 18. An end of the second gear 18 away from the connecting rod 17 is eccentrically fixed with a movable rod 19 , and an end of the movable rod 19 away from the connecting rod 17 is limitedly slidably disposed in the waist-shaped groove guide rail 20 .

[0035] An annular limiting block (not shown in the figure) is fixedly arranged on the outer surface of the movable rod 19, and a limiting groove (not shown in the figure) which is slidably matched with the annular limiting block is provided in the waist-shaped groove guide rail 20.

[0036] Working principle of the second embodiment: during the transmission process of the conveyor belt 4, the tooth plate 16 will be driven to move synchronously, the movement of the tooth plate 16 will drive the gear 18 to rotate, and the rotation of the gear 18 will drive the movable rod 19 to rotate around the central axis of the gear 18. During this process, the movable rod 19 will slide in the waist groove guide rail 20, thereby pushing the movable frame 23 to slide up and down reciprocatingly under the limit of the limit plate 22 through the movable plate 21, thereby accelerating the cooling of the cooling water.
