Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dedicated dough proofing, in particular to a device for automatically controlling the temperature of dough. Background Technique
[0002] Proofing, also known as final proofing or final fermentation, (after the bread dough is molded) the above-mentioned shaped dough is sent into the proofing chamber for proofing. The proofing temperature is controlled at about 35°C - 40°C, the time is generally 30 - 60 minutes, and the relative humidity is 80 - 90%. It is advisable that the volume after proofing increases to twice that before proofing.
[0003] However, the existing proofing devices are difficult to automatically control the temperature of the dough during proofing. In the hot summer, the temperature of the dough during proofing is too high, and the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the dough is large, which will cause uneven internal tissue during proofing. Moreover, the excessive temperature makes the water on the surface of the bread evaporate too fast, resulting in the formation of a crust on the surface of the bread.
[0004] Therefore, a new solution needs to be proposed to solve this problem. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] In view of the problem in the above-mentioned background technique that the existing proofing device is difficult to automatically control the temperature of the dough during proofing, resulting in over-proofing of the dough.
[0006] A device for automatically controlling the temperature of dough disclosed by the utility model includes a box body. A heat conducting plate is installed inside the box body. A temperature switch and a circulating water pipe are installed on the outer surface of the heat conducting plate. Fixing blocks arranged at equal distances are sleeved on the outer surface of the circulating water pipe, and each fixing block is fixedly connected to the heat conducting plate. A water storage cavity, a cooling cavity and proofing cavities arranged at equal distances are formed inside the box body. The lower end of the circulating water pipe is communicated with the cooling cavity, and the cooling cavity is communicated with the water storage cavity.
[0007] Furthermore, a water pump is installed on the outer surface of the box body. The upper end of the water pump is communicated with the circulating water pipe, and the water storage cavity is communicated with the input end of the water pump.
[0008] Furthermore, a sealing plate is installed on the inner wall of the cooling cavity. Heat pipes arranged at equal distances are installed inside the sealing plate. Fans arranged at equal distances are installed inside the box body.
[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of cabinet doors are hinged to the front of the box body. Inspection glasses are installed inside each cabinet door.
[0010] Furthermore, a handle is fixedly connected to the side surface of each cabinet door away from the box body. A connecting block, a sealing gasket and a first connecting column are fixedly connected to the side surface of each cabinet door close to the box body.
[0011] Furthermore, inside each of the proofing chambers, there are fixed connection limit plates arranged at equal height intervals. Inside each of the proofing chambers, there is a support plate. On both side surfaces of each support plate, there are installed rollers, and the outer surface of each roller is in contact with the limit plate.
[0012] Furthermore, at the bottom surface of each of the limit plates, there is a fixed connection of a second connecting column. On the outer surface of each of the second connecting columns, there is a rotatably connected transmission plate, and each transmission plate is rotatably connected to the corresponding first connecting column.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. By setting components such as a heat conducting plate, a temperature switch, a circulating water pipe, and a cooling chamber, when using this device, when the temperature inside the box body becomes high, it will trigger the temperature switch to control the circulation of the circulating water in the circulating water pipe. The relatively hot water in the circulating water pipe will enter the cooling chamber for cooling, and the cooled water in the water storage chamber will enter the circulating water pipe, thereby controlling the temperature of the circulating water pipe to decrease. When the temperature of the circulating pipe decreases, the temperature of the heat conducting plate in contact with it will also drop, thereby controlling the temperature inside the proofing chamber to decrease. When the temperature inside the proofing chamber decreases, the temperature of the dough inside will also decrease, achieving the effect that this device can control the temperature of the dough according to requirements.
[0015] 2. By setting components such as a cabinet door, a support plate, a transmission rod, and rollers, when using this device, opening and closing the cabinet door can drive the movement of the first connecting column. The first connecting column will drive the support plate and the rollers to move horizontally along the limit plate through the transmission plate and the second connecting column. By moving, part of the support plate is moved out of the inside of the box body, thus facilitating the taking and storing of the dough, and at the same time facilitating the cleaning inside the proofing chamber.
