[0002] The patent document with the publication (announcement) number of CN218889222U discloses a blanching machine water tank, which includes several boxes. There is an overflow port above the side wall of the box and a drain port at the bottom. Each box includes a bottom panel and three side panels. A box chamber is formed between the bottom panel, the three side panels and the outer wall of the blanching machine. Adjacent boxes share a side wall. The side wall of the water tank of the utility model makes full use of the structure of the blanching machine as the side panel, saving materials. During the process of draining and replacing water in the water tank, a height difference is formed on the bottom surface of the water tank, and the drain port is placed at the lowest point of the small bottom surface, so that the waste water can be fully drained, and it is energy-saving and environment-friendly.

[0003] Through the blanching machine, the activity of enzymes in fruits and vegetables is inhibited to maintain the unique fresh color of fruits and vegetables, emit the green odor of vegetables and retain the fragrance, improve the softness of cells, facilitate water evaporation, and lay a good foundation for the technological requirements of the next drying and dehydration process. During the use of the water tank of this blanching machine, for the soybeans floating on the hot water surface, the upper half facing upwards contacts the hot water, and for some of the soybeans floating on the hot water surface, the blanching is incomplete, reducing the quality of soybean blanching and not meeting the actual requirements. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The utility model discloses an efficient blanching machine for soybean production, aiming to solve the technical problem that for the soybeans floating on the hot water surface, the upper half facing upwards contacts the hot water, and for some of the soybeans floating on the hot water surface, the blanching is incomplete, reducing the quality of soybean blanching.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0006] An efficient blanching machine for soybean production includes a first fixing plate. One side of the first fixing plate is fixedly connected with a bottom plate. One side of the bottom plate is fixedly connected with a second fixing plate. One side of the first fixing plate near the edge is rotatably connected with a first conveying roller. One side of the first fixing plate near the other end edge is rotatably connected with a third conveying roller. One side of the first fixing plate near the bottom is rotatably connected with a second conveying roller. One end of the first conveying roller is equipped with a motor. A plurality of conveyor belts are sleeved on the outer wall of the first conveying roller, and the conveyor belts are also sleeved on the outer walls of the second conveying roller and the third conveying roller;

[0007] A guiding mechanism is installed on the upper surface of the second fixing plate, and the guiding mechanism is used to evenly disperse the soybeans;

[0008] A cleaning scraper mechanism is installed on one side of the first fixed plate, and the cleaning scraper mechanism is used to clean the edamame adhering to the equipment;

[0009] The outer surface of the conveyor belt is provided with a propulsion mechanism, which is used to help the edamame move forward in the hot water;

[0010] A water level control mechanism is installed on one side of the first fixing plate, and the water level control mechanism is used to control the hot water level.

[0011] By pouring edamame near the third conveyor roller, it is necessary to start the motor, and the first conveyor roller rotates. Due to the effect of friction, multiple conveyor belts are driven to rotate, thereby driving the second conveyor roller and the third conveyor roller to rotate. The conveyor belt drives multiple push plates thereon to move along a fixed trajectory, continuously pressing the edamame into the water. The edamame in these parts will be pushed by the push plates to move slowly in the hot water. By setting the speed of the motor, the blanching time of the edamame in hot water can be set.

[0012] In a preferred solution, the guide mechanism includes a plurality of partition plates fixedly connected to the surface of the conveying plate, and a plurality of connecting holes are formed on the surface of the partition plates.

[0013] Due to the effect of the dividing plates, the introduced edamame will not pile up together but will be evenly divided into several parts, and the connecting holes allow the hot water between the multiple dividing plates to flow mutually.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the cleaning scraper mechanism includes a mounting plate fixedly connected to one side of the first fixed plate, a plurality of connecting plates on one side of the mounting plate, a cleaning plate fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate, and the propulsion mechanism includes a plurality of pushing plates fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaning plate, a scraping groove is provided on one side of the pushing plate, and a plurality of resistance reducing holes are provided on the surface of the pushing plate.

[0015] Part of the edamame adheres to the pushing plate, and the cleaning plate cooperates with the scraping groove on the pushing plate to scrape the adhered edamame off the pushing plate, so that the edamame will not be blanched repeatedly, thereby improving the blanching quality of the edamame. The function of the resistance reducing holes is to prevent hot water from being pushed out of the machine during the rotation of the pushing plate, and the hot water can flow into the bottom plate through the resistance reducing holes.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the water level control mechanism includes an adjusting tube plugged into one side of the first fixed plate, a water inlet funnel is fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting tube, and a plurality of sealing plugs are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the adjusting tube, and the positions of the sealing plugs are evenly arranged.

[0017] By pouring hot water from the position of the water inlet funnel until the inside of the bottom plate is filled with hot water, and by removing the sealing plugs at the corresponding heights, after the inside of the bottom plate is full of water, the excess water will flow out from the corresponding holes, so that the water level inside the bottom plate can be controlled.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the bottom plate is fixedly connected with a conveying plate. The cross-sectional shape of the conveying plate is triangular. Half of the cross-sectional shape of the cleaning plate is the same as the shape of the scraping groove, and the second conveying roller and the scraping groove cooperate with each other without interference.

[0019] The position of the conveying plate is located at one end of the conveyor belt of the edamame production line. Near the conveying plate, the edamame is pushed out of the hot water by the pushing plate and poured onto the conveying plate, and then is conveyed to the next process by the conveyor belt of the edamame production line.

One side of the first fixing plate 1 is rotatably connected to a first conveyor roller 11 near the edge position. One side of the first fixing plate 1 is rotatably connected to a third conveyor roller 15 near the other end edge position. One side of the first fixing plate 1 is rotatably connected to a second conveyor roller 14 near the bottom position. One end of the first conveyor roller 11 is equipped with a motor. A plurality of conveyor belts 5 are sleeved on the outer wall of the first conveyor roller 11, and the conveyor belts 5 are also sleeved on the outer walls of the second conveyor roller 14 and the third conveyor roller 15;

[0029] The upper surface of the second fixing plate 7 is provided with a guiding mechanism for evenly dispersing the edamame;

[0030] One side of the first fixing plate 1 is provided with a cleaning scraper mechanism for cleaning the edamame adhered to the equipment;

[0031] The outer surface of the conveyor belt 5 is provided with a propulsion mechanism for helping the edamame move forward in the hot water;

[0032] One side of the first fixing plate 1 is provided with a water level control mechanism for controlling the water level of the hot water.

[0033] In this embodiment, when edamame is poured near the third conveyor roller 15, the motor needs to be started, and the first conveyor roller 11 rotates. Due to the action of friction, it drives a plurality of conveyor belts 5 to rotate, thereby driving the second conveyor roller 14 and the third conveyor roller 15 to rotate. The conveyor belts 5 drive the plurality of pushing plates 6 thereon to move in a fixed trajectory, continuously pressing the edamame into the water. The edamame in these parts will be pushed by the pushing plates 6 to slowly move forward in the hot water. By setting the rotation speed of the motor, the blanching time of the edamame in the hot water can be set.

[0034] Refer toFigure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the guiding mechanism includes a plurality of partition plates 3 fixedly connected to the surface of the conveying plate 2, and a plurality of communication holes 17 are formed in the surface of the partition plates 3.

[0035] In this embodiment, due to the function of the partition plates 3, the imported soybeans will not pile up together and will be evenly divided into several parts. The communication holes 17 enable the hot water between the plurality of partition plates 3 to flow mutually.

[0036] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the cleaning scraper mechanism includes a mounting plate 13 fixedly connected to one side of the first fixing plate 1, a plurality of connecting plates 12 on one side of the mounting plate 13, and a cleaning plate 4 fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plates 12. The pushing mechanism includes a plurality of pushing plates 6 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaning plate 4. A scraping groove 19 is formed on one side of the pushing plate 6, and a plurality of drag reduction holes 18 are formed in the surface of the pushing plate 6.

[0037] In this embodiment, some soybeans adhere to the pushing plate 6. Through the cooperation of the cleaning plate 4 and the scraping groove 19 on the pushing plate 6, the cleaning plate 4 scrapes off the adhered soybeans from the pushing plate 6, so that the soybeans will not be repeatedly blanched, improving the blanching quality of the soybeans. The function of the drag reduction holes 18 is that the hot water will not be pushed out of the machine during the rotation of the pushing plate 6, and the hot water can flow back into the bottom plate 16 through the drag reduction holes 18.

[0038] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the water level control mechanism includes an adjusting pipe 10 inserted into one side of the first fixing plate 1. An inlet funnel 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting pipe 10, and a plurality of sealing plugs 9 are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the adjusting pipe 10, and the positions of the sealing plugs 9 are arranged evenly.

[0039] In this embodiment, hot water is poured in from the position of the inlet funnel 8 until the inside of the bottom plate 16 is filled with hot water. By removing the sealing plugs 9 at the corresponding height, after the inside of the bottom plate 16 is full of water, the excess water will flow out from the corresponding holes, so that the water level inside the bottom plate 16 can be controlled.

[0040] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, one end of the bottom plate 16 is fixedly connected to the conveying plate 2. The cross-sectional shape of the conveying plate 2 is triangular. Half of the cross-sectional shape of the cleaning plate 4 is the same as the shape of the scraping groove 19, and the second conveying roller 14 and the scraping groove 19 cooperate with each other without interference.

Due to the action of the partition plate 3, the imported edamame will not pile up together and will be evenly divided into several parts. The communication holes 17 enable the hot water between the plurality of partition plates 3 to flow mutually. These several parts of edamame will be pushed by the pushing plates 6 to slowly move forward in the hot water. By setting the rotation speed of the motor, the blanching time of the edamame in the hot water can be set. Near the conveying plate 2, the edamame is pushed out of the hot water by the pushing plate 6 and poured onto the conveying plate 2, and then conveyed to the next process by the conveyor belt of the edamame production line. Some edamame adheres to the pushing plate 6. Through the cooperation of the cleaning plate 4 and the scraping groove 19 on the pushing plate 6, the cleaning plate 4 scrapes off the adhered edamame from the pushing plate 6, so that the edamame will not be blanched repeatedly, improving the blanching quality of the edamame. The function of the resistance reducing hole 18 is that the hot water will not be pushed out of the machine during the rotation of the pushing plate 6, and the hot water can flow back into the bottom plate 16 through the resistance reducing hole 18.
