Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of compound thickener production, in particular to a sterile vacuum feeding machine for compound thickener production. Background Art

[0002] Compound thickener is a food additive, usually composed of two or more thickeners used in combination, with a synergistic thickening effect. This additive can improve and increase the viscosity and gelation of products, thereby improving the physical properties of food and making it more lubricated and comfortable. During the production process of compound thickeners, it is necessary to compound multiple materials. In order to minimize human intervention during the production process, reduce the risk of contamination, and improve the ability to achieve food sterility, a sterile vacuum feeding machine is usually used during the conveying process of material compounding.

[0003] The prior art has the following deficiencies: In the prior art, in the "sterile vacuum feeding machine for compound thickener production" with the application number 202323257392.3, "it includes a housing, a vacuum pump and a blanking mechanism are respectively installed above and below the housing, and a suction cavity is formed in the housing between the vacuum pump and the blanking mechanism. The outside of the housing is used for connecting an inlet pipe for raw materials for producing compound thickeners. A cleaning component is fixedly installed between the housing and one end of the inlet pipe to continuously feed the raw materials in the inlet pipe and sterilize them. The inlet pipe is connected to the suction cavity through the sterilization component."

[0004] The above equipment can perform sterilization treatment and improve cleanliness through the setting of the inlet pipe, cleaning component, etc., so as to improve the quality of the finished product. However, during the conveying process of compound materials (usually in powder form) by the above equipment, the compound materials are easily adsorbed on the inner wall of the discharge pipe. After the compound materials are adsorbed and accumulated in the discharge pipe to a certain extent, it is easy to cause blockage of the discharge pipe, affecting the discharge efficiency of the equipment. Moreover, the above equipment usually does not have the effect of filtering compound materials, and it is difficult for users to screen out compound materials with appropriate particle sizes according to actual needs. The functionality of the equipment can be further improved. Summary of the Utility Model

A vibration motor 803 is provided on one side of the discharge pipe 7, and an anti-sticking layer 804 is provided on the inner wall of the discharge pipe 7. The anti-sticking layer 804 can improve the anti-sticking powder effect of the inner wall of the discharge pipe 7.

[0026] In this embodiment, the placement ring 9 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the lower housing 2, and four groups of threaded rods 11 are fixedly installed at the top of the placement ring 9;

[0027] Specifically, the placement ring 9 facilitates the placement of the filter plate 10;

[0028] In this embodiment, the filter plate 10 is provided with openings adapted to the four groups of threaded rods 11 and these openings are non-threaded holes. The filter plate 10 is placed on the placement ring 9 and the four groups of threaded rods 11 all pass through the corresponding openings on the filter plate 10. Nuts 12 are threadedly connected to the four groups of threaded rods 11;

[0029] Specifically, the threaded rod 11 combined with the nut 12 facilitates the fixation of the filter plate 10;

[0030] In this embodiment, the first connecting ring 13 is sleeved and fixedly installed at the top end of the lower housing 2, and the second connecting ring 14 is sleeved and fixedly installed at the bottom end of the upper housing 1;

[0031] Specifically, the combination of the first connecting ring 13 and the second connecting ring 14 facilitates the connection between the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2;

[0032] In this embodiment, the sealing gasket 15 is fixedly installed on the top of the first connecting ring 13. The sealing gasket 15 is integrally circular and its specific material is soft silicone. The upper housing 1 is placed on the lower housing 2 and is fixed between the first connecting ring 13 and the second connecting ring 14 by bolts 16;

[0033] Specifically, the sealing gasket 15 can improve the sealing performance at the connection between the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2;

[0034] In this embodiment, the activity cavity 801 is integrally spherical and larger than the elastic ball 802. The elastic ball 802 is placed in the activity cavity 801 and the specific material of the elastic ball 802 is soft rubber. The activity cavity 801 and the elastic ball 802 are respectively provided with several groups and the quantities of both are the same;

[0038] Working principle and usage process of the present utility model: One end of the hose 6 is communicated with the storage device of the compound material. Start the vacuum pump 4. The vacuum pump 4 can generate suction in the upper housing 1, and finally suck the compound material into the upper housing 1 through the feed pipe 5. After the compound material enters the upper housing 1, it will fall downward into the lower housing 2. The filter plate 10 can filter and screen the compound material. The screened compound material will pass through the filter plate 10 and be discharged from the discharge pipe 7. Start the vibration motor 803. The vibration of the vibration motor 803 can drive the inner wall of the discharge pipe 7 to shake. Due to the good elasticity of the elastic ball 802 itself, the elastic ball 802 will bounce in the movable cavity 801 after being affected by the shaking of the discharge pipe 7, thereby increasing the shaking effect of the inner wall of the discharge pipe 7. The powdery compound material on the inner wall of the discharge pipe 7 can be shaken loose. The anti-sticking layer 804 can improve the anti-sticking powder effect of the inner wall of the discharge pipe 7. The compound material is not easy to adsorb and accumulate at the discharge pipe 7 to cause blockage of the discharge pipe 7. When the filter plate 10 needs to be replaced later, remove the bolt 16, move the upper housing 1 upward or move the lower housing 2 downward to separate the two, remove each set of nuts 12, and move the filter plate 10 upward to make the filter plate 10 disengage from the threaded rod 11 to complete the disassembly of the filter plate 10. Reverse the above operations to complete the disassembly and assembly of the filter plate 10. The disassembly and assembly of the filter plate 10 are relatively convenient. This structure makes the compound material not easy to adsorb and accumulate at the discharge pipe 7 to cause blockage of the discharge pipe 7, and can filter and screen the conveyed compound material, improving the functionality of the equipment.
