Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of artificial silkworm-raising feed production, and particularly relates to a modular cooking line with adjustable length. Background Art

[0002] The traditional breeding method is a small workshop-style family breeding method, which is a completely manual breeding method. From the hatching of silkworm eggs into adults to the cocoon collection, it is all achieved through manual operations, which is time-consuming and laborious, with very low breeding efficiency. Moreover, it is restricted by seasonal conditions and can only raise silkworms at specific times, resulting in extremely low annual output of cocoons, which simply cannot meet the needs of today's society and has gradually been phased out by society. To make up for the deficiencies of traditional workshop-style silkworm breeding, large-scale and factory-style silkworm breeding technologies have emerged. In large-scale breeding technologies, if mulberry leaves are used as feed, it is completely impossible to meet the requirements of factory-style silkworm breeding. Therefore, artificial feed plays an important role in factory-style and large-scale silkworm breeding technologies. The production process of artificial feed mainly includes three steps: raw material treatment, cooking, and feed cooling. Raw material treatment is to uniformly mix and remove impurities from corn, soybean meal, compound vitamins, etc. to obtain powder. Cooking is to first add water to the powder to obtain raw feed, and then cook the raw feed into cooked feed. The cooked feed becomes the finished feed after cooling.

[0003] It can be seen that cooking is an important step in the feed production process. In order to achieve efficient and high-volume cooking of feed, a continuous passing-through cooking line has been developed, including a transmission mechanism and a cooking system. The transmission mechanism is responsible for continuously transporting the feed, and the cooking system is responsible for supplying steam to cook the feed being transported. In the actual production process, it is found that if a cooking line with a fixed length is used, it cannot be adaptively adjusted according to production requirements and production environment, resulting in difficulty in adapting to different production conditions. Content of the Utility Model

[0013] Furthermore, the steaming module includes 1 - 15 steaming units.

[0014] Furthermore, the steaming line further includes a feeding end and a discharging end, which are respectively connected to both ends of the steaming section. The feeding end is used to receive feed, and the discharging end is used to send out feed.

[0015] Furthermore, the steaming line is provided with a transmission mechanism and a steam system. The transmission mechanism is used to convey feed, and the steam system is used to provide steam for steaming the feed.

[0031] The present utility model aims to provide a modular cooking line with adjustable length, and the cooking line is designed as a modular structure with adjustable length, so that the cooking line can be adaptively adjusted according to production requirements and production environment, thereby adapting to different production conditions. In a production workshop with a large space, lengthening the cooking line can improve the cooking efficiency; in a production workshop with a small space, shortening the cooking line can achieve a production effect adapted to local conditions. At the same time, according to the actual cooking efficiency requirements, the cooking line can be adaptively lengthened or shortened to match different scales of industrialized sericulture processes.

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be elaborated in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0033] The length-adjustable modular cooking line includes a body, a transmission mechanism and a steam system connected to the body. The body is divided into a feeding end 1, a discharging end 3 and a cooking section 2 located between the two. The transmission mechanism covers the feeding end 1, the discharging end 3 and the cooking section 2, and is responsible for conveying the feed 9. The steam system is arranged in cooperation with the transmission mechanism and is used for cooking the conveyed feed 9. After receiving the feed 9 at the feeding end 1, it is conveyed to the discharging end 3 in the cooking section 2, and the feed 9 is cooked during the conveying process. After reaching the discharging end 3, the cooking is completed and the feed is sent out. It realizes cooking while conveying, can cook continuously for 24 hours, and there is no need to stop the machine for handling during the cooking process, significantly improving the cooking efficiency and being easy to operate. By controlling the transmission speed of the transmission mechanism or adjusting the length of the cooking line, the cooking time can be adjusted. The design is ingenious and can meet different production requirements. The automated cooking operation can liberate manpower, reduce labor costs, improve the safety of the cooking operation, and enhance the cooking efficiency.

[0034] The body is provided with supporting feet 22 at equal intervals. A foot cup 221 is provided at the bottom of the supporting feet 22 to achieve the purpose of stable support. The cooking section 2 adopts a modular structure, and the length of the cooking section 2 can be adaptively adjusted according to cooking needs, workshop conditions, etc., so as to be applicable to different production conditions. Specifically, the cooking section 2 includes cooking modules 21. The cooking section 21 is formed by connecting the cooking modules 21 to each other. By adjusting the number of cooking modules 21, the length of the cooking section 2 can be adjusted. This enables the cooking line 2 to be adaptively adjusted according to production requirements and production environment, so as to adapt to different production conditions. In a large-space production workshop, lengthening the length of the cooking line 2 can improve the cooking efficiency; in a small-space production workshop, shortening the cooking line 2 can achieve a local-condition production effect. At the same time, according to the actual cooking efficiency requirements, the cooking line 2 can be adaptively lengthened or shortened to match different-scale factory sericulture processes. According to production requirements and production environment, 1-20 cooking modules 21 can be selected to be connected.

The splicing is convenient and easy to disassemble. The cooking modules 21 can also be connected by welding.

[0036] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, each cooking module 21 can be composed of 1-15 cooking units 211. The cooking section 2 between adjacent supporting feet 22 is regarded as one cooking unit 211. After the cooking units 211 are connected, the cooking module 21 is formed. By using the cooking units 211 to form the cooking module 21, the length of the cooking module 21 can be adjusted by adjusting the number of connected cooking units 211, so as to further refine the adjustable length range of the cooking line 2. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.
