Detailed implementation manners

[0022] The technical solutions of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present application without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0023] An embodiment of the present application discloses a dairy product mixing device that is easy to clean. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a dairy product mixing device that is easy to clean includes a mixing drum 1 and a mixing rotating shaft 2. A plurality of mixing blades 21 are arranged on the mixing rotating shaft 2. Specifically, the mixing rotating shaft 2 is rotatably installed at the top of the mixing drum 1. A plurality of mixing blades 21 are arranged in a circumferential array at equal intervals on the circumferential side of the end of the mixing rotating shaft 2 extending into the mixing drum 1. A spraying mechanism is arranged inside the mixing drum 1. A first chute 211 is formed on the mixing blade 21 along its extending direction. A scraping plate 3 arranged along the length direction of the mixing blade 21 is slidably arranged in the first chute 211 in a non-detachable manner. When the scraping plate 3 slides in the first chute 211, it can be far away from or abutted against the inner wall of the mixing drum 1 body.

[0024] Moreover, an accommodating cavity 22 is arranged along the length direction inside the mixing rotating shaft 2. A plurality of third chutes 23 are formed on one side of the mixing rotating shaft 2 where the mixing blades 21 are arranged. The plurality of third chutes 23 and the plurality of mixing blades 21 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. A sliding rod 24 arranged along the length direction of the mixing rotating shaft 2 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 22 in a lifting manner. The lower end of the sliding rod 24 extends to the position of the third chute 23. An inclined strut 31 penetrating through the third chute 23 is hinged between the lower end of the sliding rod 24 and the upper end of the scraping plate 3. An adjusting mechanism for driving the sliding rod 24 to lift and lock in the accommodating cavity 22 is arranged on the mixing rotating shaft 2.

[0025] In this way, when cleaning the mixing drum 1, the adjusting mechanism can be used to drive the sliding rod 24 to move downward. While the sliding rod 24 moves downward, it pushes the scraping plate 3 to slide in the first sliding groove 211 of the mixing blade through the diagonal strut 31 until the end of the scraping plate 3 abuts against the inner wall of the mixing drum 1. Then, the sliding rod 24 is locked by the adjusting mechanism. At this time, multiple scraping plates 3 are all in a state of abutting against the inner wall of the mixing drum 1. When the mixing rotating shaft 2 is driven to rotate, multiple scraping plates 3 can clean the inner wall of the mixing drum 1. After the cleaning of the mixing drum 1 is completed, the locking of the sliding rod 24 can be released by the adjusting mechanism and the sliding rod 24 can be driven to move upward, so that the scraping plate 3 is away from the inner wall of the mixing drum 1, avoiding the problem that the scraping plate 3 scratches the mixing drum 1 during the mixing of dairy products, which is easy to cause wear, and effectively reducing the workload of the operator.

[0026] Specifically, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the adjusting mechanism includes a rack 41 and a gear 42 that are meshed and connected. The rack 41 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 22 and fixed to the upper end of the sliding rod 24 along the length direction of the sliding rod 24. The gear 42 is rotatably connected to the mixing rotating shaft 2. A locking assembly for locking the gear 42 is arranged on the mixing rotating shaft 2. When the gear 42 rotates forward, it drives the rack 41 to drive the sliding rod 24 to move downward in the accommodating cavity 22; when the gear 42 rotates reversely, it drives the rack 41 to drive the sliding rod 24 to move upward in the accommodating cavity 22.

[0027] Moreover, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the locking assembly includes a straight rod 51, a handle 52 and a locking pin 53. The straight rod 51 is coaxially fixed to one end of the gear 42. A handle 52 is fixedly connected to the straight rod 51. The first locking hole 251 and the second locking hole 252 are opened on the mixing rotating shaft 2 at the upper and lower ends of the straight rod 51 respectively. The locking pin 53 passes through the free end of the handle 52 and is threadedly adapted to both the first locking hole 251 and the second locking hole 252;

[0028] When the handle 52 is flipped until the locking pin 53 aligns with the first locking hole 251, the scraping plate 3 is retracted into the first sliding groove 211;

[0029] When the handle 52 is flipped until the locking pin 53 aligns with the second locking hole 252, the free end of the scraping plate 3 abuts against the inner wall of the mixing drum 1.

[0030] When it is necessary to use the dairy product stirring device to stir dairy products, turn the handle 52 to flip the handle 52 until the locking pin 53 aligns with the first locking hole 251 and lock the locking pin 53. At this time, the scraping plate 3 is retracted into the first chute 211; when it is necessary to clean the dairy product stirring device, turn the locking pin 53 to disengage the locking pin 53 from the first locking hole 251, and continue to turn the handle 52 to flip the handle 52 until the locking pin 53 aligns with the second locking hole 252 and lock the locking pin 53. At this time, the free end of the scraping plate 3 abuts against the inner wall of the stirring cylinder 1, realizing the convenient operation of the scraping plate 3 extending, retracting and locking in the first chute 211.

[0031] Further, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the spraying mechanism includes a water inlet pipe 61 arranged at the top of the stirring cylinder 1 and communicated with an external water source. A water stop valve 62 is arranged at the upper end of the water inlet pipe 61. One end of the water inlet pipe 61 extending into the stirring cylinder 1 is connected with a spray pipe 63. The spray pipe 63 is arranged in a ring shape on the inner top wall of the stirring cylinder 1 and a plurality of spray heads 64 are arranged on the spray pipe 63. In this way, when it is necessary to clean the dairy product stirring device, connect the external water source to the water inlet pipe 61 and open the water stop valve 62. The external water source enters through the water inlet pipe 61, passes through the spray pipe 63 and sprays out from the spray heads 64 to wash the inner wall of the stirring cylinder 1, and the overall cleaning effect is improved by cooperating with the use of the scraping plate 3.

[0032] Further, referring to Figure 2 , a flexible cover 311 is sleeved on the inclined strut 31. One end of the flexible cover 311 is fixedly connected to the inclined strut 31, and the other end is fixedly connected to the stirring rotating shaft 2 and shields the corresponding third chute 23. The flexible cover 311 is specifically made of food-grade silica gel to prevent dairy products from seeping into the accommodating cavity 22 through the third chute 23 and affecting the quality of dairy products.

[0033] Further, at least one side of the scraping plate 3 is fixedly connected with a sliding strip (not shown in the figure) arranged along its length direction. A fourth chute (not shown in the figure) adapted to the sliding of the sliding strip is opened on the groove wall of the stirring blade 21 corresponding to the first chute 211. When the support rod drives the scraping plate 3, the scraping plate 3 can only slide along the length direction of the stirring blade 21 through the sliding of the sliding strip in the fourth chute, avoiding the scraping plate 3 from tipping over.

[0034] And a plurality of leakage holes 212 communicating with the first chute 211 are formed through the bottom end of the stirring blade 21. When the dairy product stirring device is cleaned, the dairy products seeping into the first chute 211 flow out from the leakage holes 212, avoiding affecting the cleaning effect.

[0035] The implementation principle of the dairy product stirring device convenient for cleaning in the embodiment of the present application is:

[0036] When cleaning the dairy product stirring device, the handle 52 can be rotated to make the gear 42 rotate forward to drive the rack 41 to drive the slide rod 24 to move downward in the accommodating cavity 22, thereby driving the diagonal strut 31 to make the scraper 3 approach the stirring cylinder 1. At this time, the handle 52 is flipped until the locking pin 53 is aligned with the second locking hole 252, and the locking pin 53 is locked; when it is necessary to use the dairy product stirring device to stir dairy products, the handle 52 can be rotated to make the gear 42 rotate in reverse to drive the rack 41 to drive the slide rod 24 to move upward in the accommodating cavity 22, thereby driving the diagonal strut 31 to make the scraper 3 away from the stirring cylinder 1. At this time, the handle 52 is flipped until the locking pin 53 is aligned with the first locking hole 251, and the locking pin 53 is locked; thus, it is possible to ensure the stability of the scraper 3 as much as possible after it is away from and approaches the stirring cylinder 1. The problem that the scraper 3 scratches the cylinder body during the stirring of dairy products and is prone to wear is avoided, and the work burden of the operator is reduced.
