DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0029] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a sodium alginate puffing device, which includes a puffing machine 1. An outlet 2 is provided on the surface of the puffing machine 1, a feed inlet 3 is provided on the upper surface of the puffing machine 1, a shielding device 4 is provided on the upper surface of the puffing machine 1, and a splash-proof device 5 is provided on the surface of the puffing machine 1.
[0030] Next, specifically describe the specific settings and functions of its shielding device 4 and splash-proof device 5.
[0031] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment: The shielding device 4 includes a fixed frame 401. The fixed frame 401 is fixedly connected to the puffing machine 1. A chute 402 is provided on the surface of the fixed frame 401. A baffle 403 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chute 402. A handle 405 is fixedly connected to the surface of the baffle 403. A card slot 404 is provided on the surface of the fixed frame 401. A limiting rod 406 slidably penetrates through the surface of the handle 405. The limiting rod 406 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the card slot 404. The limiting rod 406 penetrates through the baffle 403. By providing the shielding device 4, the feed inlet 3 of the puffing machine 1 can be shielded, effectively preventing foreign dust, dirt and impurities from entering the interior of the puffing machine 1, ensuring that sodium alginate is not contaminated during the production process, guaranteeing the quality and safety of the product, thus ensuring the normal operation of the puffing machine 1 and improving the working efficiency of the puffing machine 1. A round plate 409 is fixedly connected to the arc surface of the limiting rod 406. A spring 410 is sleeved on the arc surface of the limiting rod 406. The two ends of the spring 410 are respectively fixedly connected to the round plate 409 and the handle 405. Release the limiting rod 406. At this time, the spring 410 starts to drive the limiting rod 406 to insert into the card slot 404 by means of its own elastic force. The limiting rod 406 can fix the position of the baffle 403. The spring 410 plays a role in automatically resetting the limiting rod 406. At the same time, the spring 410 can fix the position of the limiting rod 406, avoiding the situation that the limiting rod 406 is separated from the handle 405. A fixed block 407 is fixedly connected to the surface of the puffing machine 1. A magnet 408 is fixedly connected to the surface of the handle 405. The fixed block 407 is made of metal. The magnet 408 on the handle 405 is separated from the fixed block 407. The magnet 408 and the fixed block 407 can fix the position of the handle 405, thereby being able to fix the position of the baffle 403 and avoiding the situation that the baffle 403 slides along the inner wall of the chute 402. One end of the limiting rod 406 is rotatably connected to a ball 411. When the handle 405 moves, it will drive the ball 411 on the limiting rod 406 to rotate. The ball 411 slides along the surface of the puffing machine 1. The ball 411 plays a role in reducing the friction between the limiting rod 406 and the puffing machine 1, avoiding the situation that the elastic force of the spring 410 drives the limiting rod 406 to press against the surface of the puffing machine 1 and making it inconvenient to move the baffle 403. By adding the ball 411, the baffle 403 can be moved more smoothly.
[0032] Referring to Figure 5 As shown, specifically, the anti-splash device 5 includes two fixing plates 51, both of the two fixing plates 51 are fixedly connected to the extruder 1, vertical plates 52 are slidably connected to the surfaces of the two fixing plates 51, a screw rod 53 is threadedly connected to the surface of the vertical plate 52, one end of the screw rod 53 is fixedly connected to a turning handle 54. By providing the anti-splash device 5, when the sodium alginate is subjected to puffing treatment, it can effectively prevent the splashing of the sodium alginate during discharging, thereby reducing product loss and avoiding material waste. By blocking the splashing of the sodium alginate, it helps to reduce the cleaning workload of the staff and improve the cleanliness of the production site. A counterweight pad 55 is fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical plate 52, and the counterweight pad 55 drives the vertical plate 52 to slide along the surface of the fixing plate 51 by virtue of its own gravity, and the counterweight will abut against the surface of the extruder 1. The counterweight pad 55 serves to quickly drive the vertical plate 52 to slide. The vertical plate 52 is made of acrylic board. The acrylic board has the characteristic of being transparent. Therefore, the acrylic board serves to facilitate the staff to observe the discharging condition of the sodium alginate.
[0033] Working principle: When it is necessary to use the extruder 1 to extrude sodium alginate, first pour the sodium alginate into the extruder 1 from the feed inlet 3. Subsequently, the extruded sodium alginate will be discharged from the discharge outlet 2. After the extruder 1 extrudes the sodium alginate, it is necessary to block the feed inlet 3. First, pull the handle 405. The handle 405 will drive the baffle 403 to slide along the inner wall of the chute 402 opened in the fixed frame 401. At this time, the magnet 408 on the handle 405 is disengaged from the fixed block 407. The magnet 408 and the fixed block 407 can fix the position of the handle 405, thereby being able to fix the position of the baffle 403 and avoid the situation where the baffle 403 slides along the inner wall of the chute 402. The movement of the handle 405 will drive the ball 411 on the limiting rod 406 to rotate. The ball 411 slides along the surface of the extruder 1. The ball 411 serves to reduce the friction between the limiting rod 406 and the extruder 1 and avoid the situation where the elastic force of the spring 410 drives the limiting rod 406 to abut against the surface of the extruder 1, making it inconvenient to move the baffle 403. By adding the ball 411, the baffle 403 can be moved more smoothly. Subsequently, pull the limiting rod 406. The limiting rod 406 will drive the round plate 409 to move. The limiting rod 406 slides along the surface of the handle 405. At this time, the spring 410 will be compressed. When the limiting rod 406 and the card slot 404 are at the same horizontal position, release the limiting rod 406. At this time, the spring 410 starts to drive the limiting rod 406 to insert into the card slot 404 by virtue of its own elastic force. The limiting rod 406 can fix the position of the baffle 403. The spring 410 serves to automatically reset the limiting rod 406. At the same time, the spring 410 can fix the position of the limiting rod 406 and avoid the situation where the limiting rod 406 is disengaged from the handle 405. By setting the shielding device 4, the feed inlet 3 of the extruder 1 can be blocked, effectively preventing external dust, dirt and impurities from entering the interior of the extruder 1, ensuring that the sodium alginate is not contaminated during the production process, guaranteeing the quality and safety of the product, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the extruder 1 and improving the working efficiency of the extruder 1.
[0034] When using the extruder 1 to extrude sodium alginate, the anti-splash device 5 is required. First, the handle 54 is turned. The rotation of the handle 54 drives the screw to rotate. The screw moves with the help of the thread in the vertical plate 52. When one end of the screw is out of contact with the extruder 1, the weight pad 55 drives the vertical plate 52 to slide along the surface of the fixed plate 51 with its own gravity. Then the weight block will abut against the surface of the extruder 1. Then the handle 54 is turned again to make one end of the screw abut against the surface of the extruder 1. The screw can fix the position of the vertical plate 52 to avoid splashing. The vertical plate 52 shakes, and the counterweight pad 55 plays a role in quickly driving the vertical plate 52 to slide. The vertical plate 52 is made of acrylic plate material. The acrylic plate has the characteristic of being transparent, so the acrylic plate plays a role in facilitating the staff to observe the discharge of sodium alginate. By setting the anti-splash device 5, when the sodium alginate is expanded, the splash of sodium alginate can be effectively prevented during the discharge, thereby reducing product losses and avoiding material waste. By preventing the splash of sodium alginate, it helps to reduce the cleaning workload of the staff and improve the cleanliness of the production site.
