[0002] The corn flaking technology is usually used in the feed industry. Generally, corn products are processed through processes such as high-temperature steaming and rolling into flakes. This processing method improves the palatability of corn and increases the absorption rate of its nutritional components. The process of its processing is: raw material → impurity removal → conditioning and steaming → flaking → drying and cooling.
[0003] Existing steaming equipment generally uses steam distribution pipes dispersed in the steaming tank body to cause the ripening of grains by means of high-temperature steam. The high-temperature steam is unevenly distributed in the tank, resulting in a longer overall corn ripening time and possible problems of insufficient ripening. Summary of the Utility Model

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0018] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.
[0019] As Figure 1 shown, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a corn flaking steaming device, which includes a tower tank 1, a discharge gate 2 is arranged at the bottom of the tower tank 1, and a plurality of support frames 3 are arranged in the tower tank 1 from top to bottom. A plurality of steam diversion covers 4 are arranged in a ring on each support frame 3, and a steam nozzle 5 is arranged below each steam diversion cover 4. The steam nozzle 5 is arranged on an annular steam distribution pipe 6, and the annular steam distribution pipe 6 is connected to a steam supply pipe 7. The steam supply pipe 7 passes through the tower tank 1 and is connected to a steam generating device.
[0020] A stirring rod 8 is arranged in the tower tank 1. The stirring rod 8 penetrates through each support frame 3. A plurality of stirring blades 9 are arranged on the stirring rod 8. The stirring blades 9 are located between two layers of support frames 3. The lower end of the stirring rod 8 is rotationally and power-connected to a shaft seat, and the shaft seat is fixed to the inner wall of the tower tank 1. The upper end of the stirring rod 8 is power-connected to a driving device 10 installed at the top of the tower tank 1, and the driving device 10 can be a reduction motor.
[0021] In this embodiment, a safety valve 16 and a maintenance opening 17 are arranged at the top of the tower tank 1. The outer side of the tower tank 1 is coated with a heat-insulating material 18. The safety valve 16 is used to protect the tower tank 1 from over-high pressure. The maintenance opening 17 facilitates personnel to enter the interior of the tower tank 1 for maintenance. The heat-insulating material 18 insulates the tower tank 1 and reduces the heat dissipation of the tower tank 1 to the outside.
[0022] As Figure 2 shown, the support frame 3 is entirely made of stainless steel. The support frame 3 includes an annular frame 301, and the steam guide cover 4 and the annular steam distribution pipe 6 are fixed to the annular frame 301. A plurality of support rods 302 are arranged around the annular frame 301, and the support rods 302 are fixed to the inner wall of the tower tank 1.
[0023] As Figure 1 and 3 shown, a hopper 11 is arranged on one side of the top of the tower tank 1. A screw conveyor 12 is arranged at the bottom of the hopper 11. The discharge port of the screw conveyor 12 is located inside the tower tank 1. A water inlet 13 is arranged on the outer wall of the screw conveyor 12, and the water inlet 13 is connected to a water supply pipe 14. The water inlet 13 adds water to the screw conveyor 12 for the second time to infiltrate the corn.
[0024] An elastic sealing device 15 is arranged at the lower end of the discharge port of the screw conveyor 12. The elastic sealing device 15 includes a material guiding cone 1501. The top of the material guiding cone 1501 extends into the discharge port of the screw conveyor 12 and is in sealing cooperation with the discharge port of the screw conveyor 12. A plurality of springs 1502 are arranged around the material guiding cone 1501. One end of each spring 1502 is connected to the screw conveyor 12, and the other end is connected to the material guiding cone 1501.
[0025] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: Corn enters from the hopper 11 and is conveyed through the screw conveyor 12. During the conveying process of the corn, secondary water treatment is carried out through the water inlet 13. When the corn discharges from the discharge port of the screw conveyor 12, the guide cone 1501 is pressed down so that the corn enters the tower tank 1. When the discharging ends, the guide cone 1501 seals the discharge port of the screw conveyor 12 under the pulling of the spring 1502, so that the tower tank 1 forms a closed state. High-temperature steam enters the annular steam distribution pipe 6 through the steam supply pipe 7, and then sprays out from each steam nozzle 5. The steam is reflected and dispersed in different directions through the steam deflector 4, which can make the corn heated more evenly. At the same time, the driving device 10 drives the stirring blades 9 to stir the corn, so that the steam can be better dispersed into the corn material to accelerate the ripening of the corn.
[0026] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred modes of the present utility model, and do not limit the scope of the present utility model. Without departing from the design spirit of the present utility model, various deformations and improvements made by those of ordinary skill in the art to the technical solutions of the present utility model shall fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present utility model.
