Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food production equipment, in particular to a continuous immersion conveyor. Background Art

[0002] Many food raw materials need to be soaked during processing to desalt and desulfurize the food raw materials. At present, a soaking pool is usually used to desalt and desulfurize food raw materials. For example, the patented technology of the application number CN202021677994.8 previously applied by the applicant discloses a bamboo shoot pretreatment desalting pool, which can be used to remove most of the bamboo shoots through an external colander after the bamboo shoots are soaked, and the water outlet is opened to drain water, and finally the drive device is started to lift the entire filter net, so that the staff can take out the remaining bamboo shoots. However, during use, the applicant invented that the technology still has great defects. Due to the variety of specifications of food raw materials, for example, bamboo shoots will be cut into different widths or thicknesses according to different products during bamboo shoot processing. When the above technology is used to desalt and desulfurize bamboo shoot slices, in order to prevent the bamboo shoot slices of different specifications from mixing, the bamboo shoot slices of a certain specification can only be soaked separately and then soaked in the next specification, which seriously affects the production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a continuous soaking conveyor, which can soak materials of different specifications at the same time to improve processing efficiency.

[0016] By providing the guide mechanism, it can be further ensured that the partitioning net frame is in a vertical state, so that the partitioning net frame can better cooperate with the partition seat.

[0017] Two opposite inner walls of the soaking pool are provided with mounting grooves along the conveying direction of the conveying chain. When the two conveying chains rotate, the parts passing through the soaking pool are respectively located in the two mounting grooves.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

[0038] Example

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment discloses a continuous immersion conveyor, which includes a frame 6, a immersion tank 1, two conveyor chains 2 and a plurality of partition mesh frames 4.

[0040] Among them, the soaking tank 1 is arranged on the frame 6, and a conveyor mesh belt 5 is arranged in the soaking tank 1. The conveyor mesh belt 5 is driven to rotate by a driving mechanism, and it can convey the material from the feed end to the discharge end of the soaking tank 1. In addition, the conveyor mesh belt 5 is tilted upward at the discharge end of the soaking tank 1 to send the material out of the soaking tank 1. The arrangement of the conveyor mesh belt 5 is the same as the arrangement of the conveyor mesh belt on the traditional fruit and vegetable washing machine, and no further elaboration is made here. In addition, the driving mechanism is also the same as the driving mechanism on the fruit and vegetable washing machine, which includes a motor, a reducer, a driving gear, a driven gear, a roller shaft and other components, which is only used to drive the conveyor mesh belt 5 to rotate, and the specific structure is not further described.

[0041] Two conveyor chains 2 are arranged on the frame 6 and are arranged in parallel on the same horizontal plane. They are also driven to rotate by a driving mechanism; that is, the conveyor chain 2 and the conveyor mesh belt 5 can be driven to rotate by separate driving mechanisms respectively. Similarly, the driving mechanism for driving the conveyor chain 2 can also be implemented by an existing chain drive structure, which usually includes a motor, a reducer connected to the motor, a driving gear connected to the reducer, and a driven gear installed on the frame 6; the conveyor chain 2 is meshed with the driving gear and the driven gear, and the number of meshing driving gears and driven gears is two sets. Another conveyor chain 2 is installed on another set of driving gears and driven gears. The two sets of driving gears and driven gears are connected by a roller shaft and are driven to rotate by the motor. That is, when the motor drives the roller shaft to rotate, it drives the two sets of driving gears and driven gears to rotate, so that the two conveyor chains 2 rotate synchronously. Since the driving mechanism also belongs to the existing mature technology, it will not be described in detail here.

[0042] The partitioning net frame 4 is connected between the two conveying chains 2 at intervals, so that it can rotate with the two conveying chains 2. In the specific setting, multiple driven gears can be set on the driving structure, so as to increase the distance between the upper and lower layers of the two conveying chains 2, and prevent the partitioning net frame 4 located on the upper layer of the conveying chains 2 from colliding with the partitioning net frame 4 located on the lower layer of the conveying chains 2 when the partitioning net frame 4 rotates with the two conveying chains 2, such as Figure 3 shown.

[0043] The two conveyor chains 2 are located above the soaking pool 1, or the upper layer of the conveyor chains 2 is located above the soaking pool 1, and the lower layer of the conveyor chains 2 is located in the soaking pool 1, such as Figure 3 described.

[0044] The partitioning mesh frame 4 is fixedly connected to the two conveying chains 2, and the partitioning mesh frame 4 is perpendicular to the conveying chains 2. When the partitioning mesh frame 4 rotates with the conveying chains 2, the lower end of the partitioning mesh frame 4 located at the lower layer of the conveying chains 2 begins to contact the surface of the conveying mesh belt 5 at the feeding end of the soaking tank 1, so that the two adjacent partitioning mesh frames 4, the conveying mesh belt 5 and the two side walls of the soaking tank 1 together form a plurality of soaking chambers 9 inside the soaking tank 1 that can move along the soaking tank 1, such as Figure 2 , 3 shown.

[0045] During operation, a material of a certain specification is soaked in each soaking chamber 9. During the soaking process, the material moves slowly forward along with the soaking chamber 9. When the separation net frame 4 moves to the discharge end of the soaking pool 1, it starts to move upward to the upper layer of the conveyor chain 2. At this time, the separation net frame 4 starts to separate from the surface of the conveyor mesh belt 5. Figure 3 As shown, the material in the soaking chamber 9 is taken away from the soaking water in the soaking pool 1 by the conveyor mesh belt 5, and finally taken out of the soaking pool 1 and falls into the external collection frame. When the material in the next soaking chamber 9 is taken out of the soaking pool 1, another collection frame is replaced for collection. In specific settings, the time for the soaking chamber 9 to move from the feed end to the discharge end of the soaking pool 1 can be actually set according to the soaked material. For example, when the soaked material is bamboo shoots, the time for the soaking chamber 9 to move from the feed end to the discharge end of the soaking pool 1 can be set to 20 minutes.

[0046] The partitioning mesh frame 4 is a rectangular mesh frame, and its width matches the width of the soaking pool 1. The soaking water can flow through the mesh holes on the partitioning mesh frame 4, and the materials are isolated in the corresponding soaking chambers 9. Since each soaking chamber 9 soaks the same material, but the specifications of the materials are different, the soaking water in each soaking chamber 9 flows mutually and does not affect the quality of the material.

[0047] In addition, the surface of the conveyor mesh belt 5 is provided with separation seats 3 whose number and position correspond to the separation mesh frames 4 one by one along the transmission direction thereof, and the separation seats 3 are a partition plate perpendicular to the conveyor mesh belt 5. The two conveyor chains 2 rotate synchronously with the conveyor mesh belt 5, so when the separation mesh frame 4 turns to the lower layer of the conveyor chain 2, the lower end of the separation mesh frame 4 abuts against the partition plate and moves forward with the partition plate until it moves to the discharge end of the soaking pool 1, and the separation mesh frame 4 is separated from the partition plate. At this time, the soaking chamber 9 is opened, and the material can be discharged from the soaking pool 1. The setting of the separation seats 3 seals the gap between the separation mesh frame 4 and the conveyor mesh belt 5, preventing the material from leaking out of the soaking chamber 9 from the gap between the separation mesh frame 4 and the conveyor mesh belt 5; in addition, the separation seats 3 can also play a role in lifting the material downward during discharge, so that the material can be better discharged from the soaking pool 1 following the conveyor mesh belt 5.

[0048] As another implementation method of this embodiment, the partition mesh frame 4 and the two conveying chains 2 can also be rotatably connected, and the rotation connection point deviates from the central axis of the partition mesh frame 4. Therefore, the weight of the partition mesh frame 4 on both sides of the rotation connection point is different. In this way, under the action of the partition mesh frame 4's own gravity, the partition mesh frame 4 remains in a vertical state during the rotation process.

[0049] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, mounting sleeves 11 are fixedly disposed on opposite sides of the two conveyor chains 2, and connecting shafts 12 are fixedly disposed on both sides of the partitioning net frame 4. The connecting shafts 12 on both sides of the partitioning net frame 4 are respectively inserted into the mounting sleeves 11 on the two conveyor chains 2, and the connecting shafts 12 can rotate relative to the mounting sleeves 11. In this way, the partitioning net frame 4 can be rotatably connected between the two conveyor chains 2.

[0050] Compared with the above-mentioned fixed connection mode, by rotatably connecting the partitioning frame 4 to the two conveying chains 2, the partitioning frame 4 can be kept in a vertical state during the rotation process without flipping, thereby reducing the space occupied by the partitioning frame 4 during the movement process.

[0051] In addition, in this structure, the partition seat 3 can be in a "U" shape with an upper opening, and the lower end of the partition frame 4 is inserted into the partition seat 3 from the opening, so that the partition frame 4 and the partition seat 3 are matched and fixed, such as Figure 6 Of course, the partition seat 3 can still be implemented by using the above-mentioned partition plate.

[0052] Since the separation net frame 4 and the separation seat 3 move synchronously, the separation net frame 4 and the separation seat 3 will be separated at the end of the conveyor mesh belt 5. Figure 3 shown.

[0053] In addition, a guide mechanism is provided on the frame 6, and the guide mechanism is located at the feed end of the soaking tank 1. Figure 7 As shown, the guide mechanism includes two guide plates arranged opposite to each other, and a through slot 15 is formed between the two guide plates. After the partitioning mesh frame 4 passes through the through slot 15, it cooperates with the conveyor mesh belt 5. The guide plate includes a vertical section 14 and an inclined section 13 connected to the upper end of the vertical section 14. The upper ends of the inclined sections 13 of the two guide plates are inclined toward the sides away from each other, so that the cross section of the through slot 15 is funnel-shaped. By setting the above structure, if the partitioning mesh frame 4 is in a slightly inclined state when moving downward, after passing through the slot 15, the partitioning mesh frame 4 returns to a vertical state, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 , 8 As shown, the partitioning net frame 4 can be better inserted into the partition seat 3. In the specific setting, the setting of the guide mechanism should not affect the rotation of the conveying chain 2. The guide mechanism can be set between two guide mechanisms. At this time, the middle position of the partitioning net frame 4 passes through the through slot 15.

[0054] like Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the two opposite inner walls of the soaking pool 1 are provided with mounting grooves 10 along the conveying direction of the conveying chain 2. When the two conveying chains 2 rotate, the parts passing through the soaking pool 1 are respectively located in the two mounting grooves 10; that is, the lower layers of the two conveying chains 2 are respectively driven in the two mounting grooves 10, so that the two sides of the partitioning net frame 4 can be closer to the inner wall of the soaking pool 1. In addition, sealing pads are provided on both sides of the partitioning net frame 4 to form a seal between the two sides of the partitioning net frame 4 and the inner wall of the soaking pool 1 to prevent materials from leaking from between the partitioning net frame 4 and the inner wall of the soaking pool 1 into another soaking chamber 9.

[0055] The side wall of the soaking tank 1 is provided with a scum outlet 8, and a scum collecting frame 7 is provided outside the scum outlet 8, and a filter screen is provided on the scum outlet 8. The position of the scum outlet 8 is roughly the same as the position of the water surface. The small scum generated during the soaking process floats on the water surface and is discharged from the soaking tank 1 through the scum outlet 8, while the normal materials are isolated and left in the soaking tank. The scum outlet 8 can be close to the discharge end of the soaking tank 1, so that the scum generated during the entire soaking process can be basically discharged.

[0056] The present embodiment forms a plurality of soaking chambers 9 that move along the soaking pool 1 inside the soaking pool 1 through the cooperation between the separation mesh frame 4 and the conveyor mesh belt 5. When in use, each soaking chamber 9 is used to soak raw materials of different specifications. Therefore, the present invention can soak multiple specifications of raw materials at the same time, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0057] It should be noted that all features disclosed in this specification, or steps in all methods or processes disclosed, except for mutually exclusive features and / or steps, can be combined in any manner.

[0058] In addition, the above specific embodiments are exemplary, and those skilled in the art can come up with various solutions inspired by the disclosure of the utility model, and these solutions also belong to the disclosure scope of the utility model and fall within the protection scope of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model specification and its drawings are illustrative and do not constitute a limitation of the claims.
