Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dehydration of bean products, in particular to an auxiliary material device for deep processing of bean products. Background Art

[0002] In the process of making tofu, dehydration is a key step, which directly affects the texture and taste of tofu. After making soy milk, first use gauze or filter to filter out the dregs and larger particles of impurities in the soy milk to make the soy milk more delicate. Add an appropriate amount of coagulant (such as gypsum, brine or white vinegar, etc.) to the filtered soy milk and stir evenly. The coagulant will coagulate the protein in the soy milk to form tofu. Let the soy milk with the coagulant stand for a period of time (the specific time depends on factors such as the type of coagulant and temperature) to allow the tofu to fully coagulate. After the tofu is coagulated, transfer it to gauze or other permeable materials and then wrap it up. Excess water in the tofu is drained by squeezing or pressing with weights. After drainage, put the tofu into the mold and continue to press with weights to further drain and shape it. The pressing time and weight will affect the firmness and taste of the tofu;

[0003] However, pressing with heavy objects will cause the tofu to be subjected to uneven force, and tofu of different thicknesses will require different forces. If multiple heavy objects are prepared, it is easy to get mixed up. Placing heavy objects on the countertop or in a corner when not in use can also easily lead to hygiene problems.

[0032] Example, see Figure 1-Figure 3 , a material auxiliary device for deep processing of bean products, including a base 1, a vertical column 3 is fixed to one side of the base 1 by bolts, a crossbeam 4 is fixed to the top of the column 3 by bolts, the crossbeam 4 extends toward one side of the base 1, the end of the crossbeam 4 extends to the middle of the base 1, and the end of the crossbeam 4 is fixed to a mounting frame 17 vertically perpendicular to the base 1, the mounting frame 17 is located at the center of the base 1, the mounting frame 17 is provided with a vertically arranged slide groove 5, a first limiting plate 6 and a second limiting plate 15 are fixedly installed in the slide groove 5, the first limiting plate 6 is located on the upper side of the mounting frame 17, the second limiting plate 15 is located on the lower side of the mounting frame 17, the first limiting plate 6 and the second limiting plate 15 are arranged parallel to each other, the first limiting plate 6 and the second limiting plate 15 are both perpendicular to the mounting frame 17, a pair of limiting holes are provided on the first limiting plate 6 and the second limiting plate 15, and the limiting holes on the first limiting plate 6 and the second limiting plate 15 correspond to each other,

[0033] Two slide bars 16 are vertically penetrated in the limiting hole. In order to maintain stability, two circular slide bars 16 can be set, or a polygonal slide bar 16 can be set to prevent the lower template 2 from rotating. The slide bar 16 is arranged in parallel with the mounting frame 17. In order to prevent the template 2 from shaking, the size of the limiting hole and the slide bar 16 is adapted so that the slide bar 16 will not be displaced in the horizontal direction during the smooth up and down sliding process.

[0034] A limit head 7 is fixed at the top of the slide bar 16. The size of the limit head 7 is larger than the limit hole. When the water removal operation is not performed, the limit head 7 is pressed above the first limit plate 6 at the top, thereby preventing the template 2 and the slide bar 16 assembly from falling off;

[0035] The upper end of the slide bar 16 is fixed with the hanging plate 8, and a section of external thread is arranged on the slide bar 16, and the scraper is fixed by the external thread and the nut 9, and the position of the hanging plate 8 can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the nut 9, and only a pair of nuts 9 can be arranged at the bottom to limit the hanging plate 8. In order to facilitate the lifting of the template 2, it is best to arrange a pair of nuts 9 below and above the hanging plate 8, so that when the template 2 needs to be lifted up before the dewatering operation, the hanging plate 8 can be directly lifted upward, thereby driving the template 2 to move upward, avoiding the pollution of the template 2 caused by directly lifting the template 2;

[0036] A hanging ring is fixed in the middle of the hanging plate 8, on which a spring dynamometer 10 is hung, a hook at the lower part of the spring dynamometer 10 is hooked to hang a pull rope 18, the pull rope 18 is fixedly connected to the operating handle 12, the lower part of the operating handle 12 is connected to the screw 13, the screw 13 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 14 in the middle of the second limit plate 15, the end of the slide bar 16 is fixedly connected to the template 2, the screw 13 is driven to rotate by rotating the operating handle 12, the screw 13 rotates and cooperates with the threaded hole 14 to make the operating handle 12 and the screw 13 move downward together, and other wire-receiving devices for receiving the pull rope 18 can also be installed, such as a crank structure arranged horizontally, and the pull rope 18 is wound around the crank by shaking the crank;

[0037] The pull rope 18 is thereby pulled, and the pull rope 18 pulls the hook part of the spring dynamometer 10, and the top of the spring dynamometer 10 is fixedly connected to the hanging plate 8, so the tension is transmitted to the hanging plate 8, and the hanging plate 8 is fixedly connected to the slide bar 16 and the template 2 to form a whole, so the tension pulls the template 2 to move downward, and the screw 13 and the threaded hole 14 can complete self-locking.

[0038] Working principle: place the tray with tofu just below the template 2, and press the template 2 onto the tofu. At this time, the limit head 7 is located above the first limit plate 6, and the first limit plate 6 has no upward force on the slide bar 16 and the template 2. The slide bar 16 and the template 2 are affected by their own gravity and the support of the tofu. By rotating the operating handle 12, the operating handle 12 and the screw rod 13 move downward together, so that the hanging plate 8 is pulled downward by the pull rope 18, and the tension value is displayed by the spring dynamometer 10. The downward tension and self-locking ability are provided by the operating handle 12, the screw rod 13 and the threaded hole 14. At this time, the slide bar 16 and the template 2 are affected by their own gravity, the downward tension and the support force of the tofu. The pressing force on the tofu can be adjusted by rotating the operating handle 12.

[0039] The above are only specific implementations of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to them. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model; in the absence of conflicts, the embodiments of the utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
