Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of physics, especially the field of food processing, and particularly to an efficient spiral cooking machine. Background Art

[0002] In the dairy industry, plant-based dairy products such as soy milk and oat milk have been widely welcomed by the market in recent years. However, in the traditional processing of these products, especially in the raw material pretreatment stage, the materials need to be cooked and drained before grinding to remove excess moisture and soften the materials. However, due to the limitations of the cooking equipment, the cooking of raw materials such as soybeans and oats often cannot be carried out continuously and needs to be processed in batches. After each batch is completed, it is necessary to wait for the next batch of materials to be prepared before continuing, which reduces the production efficiency. This not only increases the processing time but also causes waste of energy. At the same time, due to uneven cooking, the phenomenon of gelatinization and sticking to the pipe may occur in the materials, further affecting the product quality and production efficiency.

[0011] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments, but the present utility model is not limited to these embodiments. Any similar structures and similar changes using the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model. The use of directions such as up, down, front, rear, left, and right in the present utility model is only for convenient and clear description, and does not limit the technical solution of the present utility model.

[0012] As Figure 1 shown, an efficient spiral cooking machine of the present utility model includes a cooking machine, and the cooking machine includes a cooking machine housing 13. A cooking chamber and a steam jacket are arranged inside the cooking machine housing 13. The steam jacket is sleeved on the outer periphery of the cooking chamber. The steam jacket is sequentially provided with a first steam inlet 5, a first water drain outlet 6, a second water drain outlet 8, and a second steam inlet 7 along the axial direction. One end of the cooking chamber is provided with a feed inlet 1 and a water inlet 4. A first spiral feeding mechanism is arranged in the cooking chamber. The other end of the cooking chamber is provided with a discharging mechanism. A water drainer is arranged below the cooking machine. The water drainer includes a water drainer housing 14. The cooking chamber is communicated with one end of the water drainer housing 14 through the discharging mechanism. A second spiral feeding mechanism is arranged inside the water drainer housing 14. A detachable water drain filter 10 is arranged at the bottom of the water drainer housing 14. The other end of the water drainer housing 14 is provided with a discharge outlet 11.

[0013] Furthermore, each of the first spiral feeding mechanism and the second spiral feeding mechanism includes a spiral shaft 3 and a motor 2. The output shaft of the motor 2 is connected to the first end of the spiral shaft 3 through a transmission mechanism. The discharging mechanism is a discharging flap 9, and the discharging flap 9 is connected to the second end of the spiral shaft 3 of the first spiral feeding mechanism.

[0014] Specifically, the spiral shaft 3 is made of SS316L material with a surface finish of ≤ 0.6um, which greatly reduces the possibility of material sticking to the wall while ensuring material transportation. The structure of the discharge flap 9 includes a plate-like structure with a certain inclination angle to facilitate the smooth sliding of the material.

[0015] Furthermore, the motor 2 is a variable-frequency speed-regulating motor. To further improve the performance of the high-efficiency spiral cooking machine, the motor 2 can be a variable-frequency speed-regulating motor produced by ABB. The motor 2 can achieve different speeds and torques under the drive of the frequency converter to adapt to the changing load requirements. It has no additional slip loss, high efficiency, and a wide speed regulation range. For occasions with more low-load operation time or frequent starting and stopping, it can achieve power saving and motor protection purposes.

[0016] Furthermore, a maintenance opening 12 is provided on the cooking machine housing 13.

[0017] Furthermore, the steam jacket is made of stainless steel material and can withstand high temperature and high pressure.

[0018] Specifically, the drain filter 10 is detachably connected to the drain machine housing 14 by bolts. The drain filter 10 is made of stainless steel, has good antibacterial, antioxidant, and high-temperature resistance properties, and can effectively filter impurities in the material, making the drainage cleaner and more hygienic.

[0019] Specifically, the drain filter 10, spiral shaft 3, motor 2, transmission mechanism, discharge mechanism, discharge flap 9, variable-frequency speed-regulating motor, etc. in this embodiment all adopt well-known solutions in the prior art, which are already understood by those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0020] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0021] During use, first add water to the cooking chamber through the water inlet 4, and then connect the first steam inlet 5 and the second steam inlet 7 to the steam source. After a period of time, open the first drain port 6 and the second drain port 8 to discharge the condensate in the steam jacket. At this time, feed the material through the feed port 1. According to the process requirements of different materials, adjust the frequency of the motor 2, thereby adjusting the rotation speed of the spiral shaft 3, controlling the cooking time of the material. The spiral shaft 3 transports the material to the discharge flap 9, and the material is sent into the drain machine through the discharge flap 9. The cooked material is dewatered by the drain filter 10, and then discharged through the discharge port 11, completing the cooking and dewatering process of the material. When finished, first stop feeding the material through the feed port 1. After all the material has been discharged through the discharge port 11, then close the steam source, and then perform equipment cleaning. After turning off the power, the drain filter 10 can be disassembled and inspected for cleaning, and the internal cleaning situation of the equipment can be observed through the maintenance opening 12.

[0022] The utility model continuously feeds materials by using a first spiral feeding mechanism and a second spiral feeding mechanism, realizes continuous cooking of the materials by using high-temperature and high-pressure steam, and realizes the water draining process through a water drainer, thereby improving the cooking efficiency of the materials. Through the settings of a first steam inlet 5, a first water drain 6, a second steam inlet 7, and a second water drain 8 of the steam jacket, the steam jacket is divided into a front section and a rear section. The steam flow direction in the front section is the same as the material flow direction, and the steam flow direction in the rear section is opposite to the material flow direction, so as to realize uniform cooking of the materials, which not only improves the cooking efficiency, but also avoids the problem of material gelatinization and sticking to the wall.
