Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food additive storage, and particularly relates to a food additive storage device. Background Art

[0002] Food additives are artificial synthetic substances or natural substances added to food to improve the quality of food such as color, aroma, and taste, as well as for the needs of anti-corrosion and processing technology. Storage tanks are tools used to store liquids, powders, and other industrial supplies. In food processing and production, storage tanks are also used to store food additives.

[0003] Common food additives are mostly in the form of granular powders before use, and powders are prone to absorb moisture and agglomerate and are not easy to discharge, resulting in easy deterioration of food additives. Generally, storage tanks cannot completely isolate external air when storing food additives, and often due to external water vapor entering the interior of the storage tank, the food additives absorb water vapor and agglomerate and deteriorate, affecting the storage of food additives. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a food additive storage device. The upper cover is driven to rotate by a driving wheel on the motor, and the rotating cylinder fixedly connected to the upper cover can drive the stirring rod to stir in the tank body. Since the stirring rod is provided with air holes, the water vapor in the additive can enter the rotating cylinder through the air holes via the stirring rod, and the drying rod can suck away the water vapor to ensure the dryness inside the tank body.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A food additive storage device includes a tank body, an upper cover is rotatably arranged at the top of the tank body, a detachable bottom cover is arranged at the bottom of the tank body, a rotating cylinder arranged inside the tank body is installed in the middle of the bottom side of the upper cover, a plurality of stirring rods are arrayed on the rotating cylinder, a cavity is formed in the middle of the stirring rod, the cavity of the stirring rod is communicated with the rotating cylinder, air holes are formed in the stirring rod, a drying rod is installed in the rotating cylinder, a motor is arranged outside the tank body, a driving wheel is installed at the power output end of the motor, and the driving wheel abuts against the outer wall of the upper cover.

[0007] Preferably, a through hole is formed in the middle of the upper cover, a threaded port is installed at the through hole on the upper side of the upper cover, the threaded port is communicated with the rotating cylinder, and a threaded cover is installed on the threaded port.

[0008] Preferably, an installation position is arranged on the side of the threaded cover close to the threaded port, and a detachable drying rod is installed in the installation position.

[0009] Preferably, a limiting hole is provided in the middle of one side of the bottom cover close to the rotating cylinder, a limiting protrusion adapted to the limiting hole is provided at the bottom of the rotating cylinder, and a rotating protrusion is provided on the side of the bottom cover away from the rotating cylinder.

[0010] Preferably, grooves are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the upper cover. A limiting ring is provided on the annular inner wall of the groove on the lower side of the upper cover, and a limiting groove adapted to the limiting ring is provided on the outer side wall of the upper end of the tank body.

[0011] Preferably, the horizontal height of the upper end of the upper cover is higher than that of the threaded cover, and the horizontal height of the bottom side of the rotating protrusion is higher than that of the bottom end of the tank body.

[0012] Preferably, teeth are provided on the driving wheel, and a toothed ring adapted to the teeth is provided on the outer side wall of the upper cover.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. The structure of the present utility model is simple. The upper cover is driven to rotate by the driving wheel on the motor, and the rotating cylinder fixedly connected to the upper cover can drive the stirring rod to stir in the tank body. Since ventilation holes are provided on the stirring rod, the water vapor in the additive can enter the rotating cylinder through the ventilation holes via the stirring rod, and the drying rod can absorb the water vapor to ensure the dryness inside the tank body.

[0015] 2. By opening the threaded cover, the operator can take out the drying rod from the threaded opening, which is convenient for the operator to replace the ineffective drying rod, ensuring that the drying rod can effectively dry the food additive inside the tank body. At the same time, sealing gaskets are provided at the threaded cover and the threaded opening, which can not only prevent the ineffective drying rod from being unable to be replaced effectively, but also ensure the sealing performance between the threaded cover and the threaded opening, improving the practicability of the present device.

[0016] 3. The diameter of the drying rod of the present device is adapted to the size of the installation position, and the end of the drying rod can be detachably installed in the installation position on the threaded cover, facilitating the direct removal of the drying rod from the rotating cylinder when the threaded cover is taken out from the threaded opening, improving the efficiency of replacing the drying rod.

[0017] 4. The limiting protrusion of the present device can always cooperate with the limiting hole. When the rotating cylinder rotates, it ensures the stability of the end of the rotating cylinder close to the bottom cover, preventing it from shaking, which may cause the stirring rod to collide with the inside of the tank body, resulting in damage to the present device and reducing the service life of the present device. The mutual cooperation of the limiting protrusion and the limiting hole can ensure the stability of the present device during operation.

[0018] 5. A threaded cap is installed in the groove of the upper cover of the device. When the tank body is placed upside down and additives are injected into the tank body, the upper end of the upper cover needs to contact the ground. Since the horizontal height of the upper end of the upper cover is higher than that of the threaded cap, it can prevent the threaded cap from contacting the ground when the tank body is placed upside down, thus avoiding damage to the threaded rod. Similarly, the horizontal height of the bottom side of the rotating protrusion at the bottom of the tank body is higher than that of the bottom end of the tank body, which improves the service life of the device.

[0019] 6. The teeth on the driving wheel of the device can mesh with the toothed ring on the upper cover. When the driving wheel rotates, through the mutual cooperation of the teeth and the toothed ring, the friction between the driving wheel and the upper cover is further increased, preventing the stirring rod in the tank body from being unable to effectively drive the upper cover to drive the stirring rod on the rotating cylinder to rotate due to the resistance of the additives, and effectively ensuring that the stirring rod stirs the additives.

A detachable bottom cover 3 is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 1. In the middle of the bottom side of the top cover 2, a rotating cylinder 10 arranged inside the tank body 1 is installed. A plurality of stirring rods 11 are arrayed on the rotating cylinder 10. The middle of the stirring rod 11 has a cavity, and the cavity of the stirring rod 11 communicates with the rotating cylinder 10. Vent holes 12 are opened on the stirring rod 11. A drying rod 9 is installed inside the rotating cylinder 10. A motor 4 is arranged outside the tank body 1. A driving wheel 5 is installed at the power output end of the motor 4, and the driving wheel 5 abuts against the outer wall of the top cover 2.

[0028] Turn the tank body 1 upside down and remove the bottom cover 3, which is convenient for the operator to load food additives into the tank body 1. Then install the bottom cover 3 at the bottom of the tank body 1. Place the tank body 1 upright. At intervals, the driving wheel 5 can be driven to rotate by the motor 4. When the driving wheel 5 rotates, it drives the top cover 2 in contact with it to rotate on the top of the tank body 1. The rotating cylinder 10 connected to the bottom side of the top cover 2 inside the tank body 1 rotates synchronously with the top cover 2. The rotating cylinder 10 drives the stirring rods 11 to stir the food additives inside the tank body 1 to prevent the food additives from caking. At the same time, the water vapor inside the food additives can enter the rotating cylinder 10 through the vent holes 12 on the stirring rods 11 and be absorbed by the drying rod 9 inside the rotating cylinder 10, ensuring that the food additives in the tank body 1 remain dry, avoiding caking and deterioration of the food additives. At the same time, the bottom cover 3 at the bottom of the tank body 1 can be completely opened to ensure that the inside of the tank body 1 can be cleaned.

[0029] A through hole is opened in the middle of the top cover 2. A threaded port 6 is installed at the through hole on the upper side of the top cover 2. The threaded port 6 communicates with the rotating cylinder 10, and a threaded cover 7 is installed on the threaded port 6.

[0030] By opening the threaded cover 7, the operator can take out the drying rod 9 from the threaded port 6, which is convenient for the operator to replace the ineffective drying rod 9, ensuring that the drying rod 9 can effectively dry the food additives inside the tank body 1. At the same time, sealing gaskets are provided at the threaded cover 7 and the threaded port 6, which can not only prevent the ineffective replacement of the drying rod 9 but also ensure the sealing performance at the threaded cover 7 and the threaded port 6, improving the practicability of the device.

[0031] An installation position 8 is arranged on the side of the threaded cover 7 close to the threaded port 6, and a detachable drying rod 9 is installed in the installation position 8.

[0032] The diameter of the drying rod 9 is adapted to the size of the installation position 8. The end of the drying rod 9 can be detachably installed in the installation position 8 on the threaded cover 7, which is convenient for directly taking out the drying rod 9 from the rotating cylinder 10 when the threaded cover 7 is taken out from the threaded port 6, improving the efficiency of replacing the drying rod 9.

[0033] A limiting hole 15 is provided in the middle of one side of the bottom cover 3 close to the rotating cylinder 10. A limiting protrusion 16 adapted to the limiting hole 15 is provided at the bottom of the rotating cylinder 10. A rotating protrusion 17 is provided on the side of the bottom cover 3 away from the rotating cylinder 10.

[0034] The limiting protrusion 16 can always cooperate with the limiting hole 15. When the rotating cylinder 10 rotates, it ensures the stability of the end of the rotating cylinder 10 close to the bottom cover 3, avoiding shaking, which may cause the stirring rod 11 to collide with the inside of the tank body 1, resulting in damage to the device and reducing the service life of the device. The mutual cooperation of the limiting protrusion 16 and the limiting hole 15 can ensure the stability of the device during operation.

[0035] Grooves are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the upper cover 2. A limiting ring 14 is provided on the annular inner wall of the groove on the lower side of the upper cover 2. A limiting groove 13 adapted to the limiting ring 14 is provided on the outer side wall of the upper end of the tank body 1.

[0036] The mutual cooperation of the limiting ring 14 and the limiting groove 13 ensures that the upper cover 2 can rotate under the drive of the drive wheel 5, and at the same time prevents the upper cover 2 from separating from the tank body 1.

[0037] The horizontal height of the upper end of the upper cover 2 is higher than the horizontal height of the threaded cover 7. The horizontal height of the bottom side of the rotating protrusion 17 is higher than the horizontal height of the bottom end of the tank body 1.

[0038] The threaded cover 7 is installed in the groove of the upper cover 2. When the tank body 1 is placed upside down and additives are injected into the tank body 1, the upper end of the upper cover 2 needs to contact the ground. Since the horizontal height of the upper end of the upper cover 2 is higher than the horizontal height of the threaded cover 7, it can prevent the threaded cover 7 from contacting the ground when the tank body 1 is placed upside down, resulting in damage to the threaded rod. Similarly, the horizontal height of the bottom side of the rotating protrusion 17 at the bottom of the tank body 1 is higher than the horizontal height of the bottom end of the tank body 1, which improves the service life of the device.
