Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food processing equipment, in particular to a color protection device for preventing chopped peppers from browning. Background Art

[0002] Browning of chopped peppers refers to the phenomenon that the phenolic substances in peppers react with oxygen during storage or processing, causing the peppers to turn brown. This phenomenon usually occurs in chopped peppers, especially when exposed to air. Browning not only affects the appearance of the peppers, but may also change their flavor and nutritional content. In order to reduce the occurrence of browning, colorants such as sodium metabisulfite are commonly used in chopped pepper processing to inhibit browning. However, sulfites are toxic to the human body and also pollute the environment.

[0003] In order to solve the browning problem of chopped peppers, a composite sulfur-free color preservative can be used to obtain chopped peppers with bright red color, basically no browning, fresh and crisp taste, moderate acidity, and rich flavor. In the process of adding the composite sulfur-free color preservative to the chopped peppers, a mixer is required to fully stir the composite sulfur-free color preservative. However, if the composite sulfur-free color preservative is not fully stirred, the anti-browning effect of the composite sulfur-free color preservative will be affected, and the color of the chopped peppers will be greatly reduced. For this reason, the applicant proposes a color protection device for preventing chopped peppers from browning. Utility Model Content

[0030] The following will be combined with the attached Figures 1 to 5 The present utility model will be described in detail below. The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] The present utility model provides a color protection device for preventing the browning of chopped peppers by improvement. As Figure 1 - Figure 5 shown, it includes a fixing assembly 1. The fixing assembly 1 includes a rotating bracket 101. Support plates 102 are fixedly connected to both the left and right side walls of the rotating bracket 101. An adjusting motor 103 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating bracket 101. A stirring assembly 2 is rotatably connected inside the rotating bracket 101, and the output end of the adjusting motor 103 is fixedly connected to the stirring assembly 2.

[0032] The stirring assembly 2 includes a stirring barrel 201. A conical barrel 202 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the stirring barrel 201. A driving motor 203 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the conical barrel 202. A stirring shaft 204 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the conical barrel 202 through a mechanical seal, and the output end of the driving motor 203 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 204. A plurality of stirring blades 205 located inside the stirring barrel 201 are fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 204. A transmission assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the stirring shaft 204. A liquid draining assembly 4 is fixedly connected inside the stirring barrel 201. A flushing assembly 5 is fixedly connected inside the conical barrel 202.

[0033] In this embodiment: When in use, first, the staff divides the compound sulfur-free color protection agent into two equal parts and adds it in two times. The first time it is added to one side of the partition board 501 located inside the conical barrel 202. Then the chopped peppers are poured into the rotating bracket 101. The remaining half of the compound sulfur-free color protection agent is added to the chopped peppers for the second time. Finally, the driving motor 203 is started. The driving motor 203 drives the stirring shaft 204 to rotate. The stirring shaft 204 stirs the chopped peppers through a plurality of stirring blades 205, so that the compound sulfur-free color protection agent added for the first time is stirred and mixed with the chopped peppers.

[0034] In the above implementation mode, in order to improve the full stirring of the compound sulfur-free color protection agent and the chopped peppers, the following methods can be adopted for implementation:

[0035] The transmission assembly 3 includes a gear box 301 rotatably connected to the upper end of the stirring shaft 204. The gear box 301 is fixedly connected to the rotating bracket 101 through a fixing rod 302. A first bevel gear 303 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the stirring shaft 204. Two second bevel gears 304 meshing with the first bevel gear 303 are rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the gear box 301. A third bevel gear 305 meshing with the two second bevel gears 304 is rotatably connected to the upper inner wall of the gear box 301. A spraying box 306 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the third bevel gear 305. A water pump 307 is arranged at the upper end of the spraying box 306. The water outlet end of the water pump 307 is rotatably connected to the spraying box 306. The water inlet end of the water pump 307 is communicated with a conveying pipe 308, and the conveying pipe 308 penetrates through the stirring barrel 201 and is connected to the inside of the conical barrel 202 through a flushing assembly 5.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the chili liquid in the chopped chili will flow into the inside of the conical barrel 202 through the liquid draining assembly 4. At this time, the staff starts the water pump 307. The water pump 307 first pumps the chili liquid containing the compound sulfur-free color protection agent on one side of the partition plate 501 inside the conical barrel 202 through the conveying pipe 308, so that the chili liquid is sprayed onto the chopped chili through the spraying box 306. In addition, during the rotation of the stirring shaft 204, the first bevel gear 303 will be driven to rotate. The first bevel gear 303 drives the third bevel gear 305 to reverse through the meshing with the second bevel gear 304. Furthermore, the third bevel gear 305 drives the spraying box 306 to reverse, so that the spraying box 306 rotates in the opposite direction to the stirring of the chopped chili, improving the contact range between the chili liquid containing the compound sulfur-free color protection agent and the chopped chili.

[0037] It should be noted that putting the compound sulfur-free color protection agent into the chili liquid will dilute the compound sulfur-free color protection agent, and at the same time increase the spraying amount, ultimately achieving the purpose of increasing the mixing speed with the chopped chili.

[0038] The liquid draining assembly 4 includes a draining plate 401 fixedly connected inside the stirring barrel 201, and the draining plate 401 is rotatably connected to the stirring shaft 204. A plurality of uniformly distributed filtering grooves 402 are drilled in the draining plate 401. A limiting ring block 405 is fixedly connected inside the stirring barrel 201 and is located below the draining plate 401. A moving ring plate 403 is arranged on the upper side of the limiting ring block 405. A plurality of uniformly distributed sealing plates 404 are fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the moving ring plate 403, and the sealing plates 404 correspond to the filtering grooves 402. A plurality of anti-rotation bars 406 inserted into the moving ring plate 403 are fixedly connected to the limiting ring block 405. An electromagnet 407 magnetically attracted to the sealing plate 404 is fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the draining plate 401.

[0039] In this embodiment, under normal circumstances, the moving ring plate 403 will not contact the draining plate 401 under gravity. At this time, the draining plate 401 is in a state where it can drain liquid, and the chili liquid will drip into the interior of the conical cylinder 202 through the filtering tank 402. When the chili liquid containing the compound sulfur-free color preservative on one side of the partition plate 501 inside the conical cylinder 202 is drained, the staff activates the electromagnet 407. The electromagnet 407 attracts the moving ring plate 403 to move upward, causing the moving ring plate 403 to contact the draining plate 401. At this time, the draining plate 401 is in a sealed state, preventing the color preservative from dripping back into the conical cylinder 202 during the stirring of the chopped chili, resulting in waste of the color preservative.

[0040] Reference Figure 6 , in a preferred embodiment, the flushing assembly 5 includes a partition plate 501 fixedly connected to the conical cylinder 202. A suction pipe 502 is rotatably connected inside the partition plate 501, and the suction pipe 502 is rotatably connected to the conveying pipe 308. The upper end of the suction pipe 502 is fixedly connected to a driving cylinder 503, and the driving cylinder 503 is rotatably connected to the partition plate 501 through a bearing. A square rod 504 fixedly connected to the sealing plate 404 is inserted into the driving cylinder 503. A spiral groove 505 is formed on the inner side wall of the square rod 504, and a guiding block 506 fixedly connected to the square rod 504 is slidably connected inside the spiral groove 505. Both the left and right side walls of the partition plate 501 are communicated with a bent pipe 507. An absorption hole is formed on the bent pipe 507, and the bent pipe 507 can be communicated with one of the bent pipes 507 through the absorption hole.

[0041] In this embodiment: when the moving ring plate 403 moves upward, it will pull the square rod 504 upward. Furthermore, the square rod 504 drives the driving cylinder 503 to rotate 90 degrees through the guiding action of the guiding block 506 and the spiral groove 505, causing the driving cylinder 503 to drive the suction pipe 502 to rotate 90 degrees. As a result, the suction pipe 502 is communicated with the other bent pipe 507. The chili liquid on the other side of the partition plate 501 can be extracted through the bent pipe 507 to flush the residual compound sulfur-free color preservative in the pipeline, avoiding affecting the content of the compound sulfur-free color preservative due to the adhesion of the pipeline. After the stirring of the chopped chili is completed, the staff activates the adjusting motor 103 to drive the stirring assembly 2 to flip, enabling the chopped chili to be discharged.

[0042] Among them, the adjusting motor 103, the driving motor 203, the water pump 307, and the electromagnet 407 are all prior arts, and their structural principles will not be elaborated here. At the same time, this device also includes devices such as a power supply, a switch, a controller, and a power supply cable, which will not be detailed as they are not the main technologies.

[0043] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present utility model. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
