Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pumpkin seed flavoring, and more specifically, to a flavoring device for pumpkin seed processing. Background Art
[0002] Melon seeds, also known as melon seeds or "side fruits," come in many varieties, including sunflower seeds, clams, white melon seeds, hanging melon seeds, watermelon seeds, pumpkin seeds, cucumber seeds, and loofah seeds. Sunflower seeds, the fruit of the sunflower plant, are not only enjoyed as a snack but also as an ingredient in pastries. They are also an important raw material for oil extraction, providing a high-quality, healthy source of fat. During processing, the seeds need to be flavored to create different flavors to meet the needs of different consumers.
[0003] Traditional seasoning involves placing sunflower seeds directly into a container filled with seasoning for soaking. Manual stirring is required during the soaking process, and the seeds are removed after soaking. While this seasoning method is simple and easy, it is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. However, with the development of businesses and the use of mechanical equipment, a growing number of sunflower seed seasoning devices have emerged, allowing factories to process sunflower seeds through these devices, improving the efficiency of previously manual operations.
[0004] When using flavoring devices to process melon seeds in factories, workers need to add melon seeds multiple times to improve the processing efficiency of melon seeds. This will cause the melon seeds to stack and layer, resulting in the melon seeds not being fully flavored, making some melon seeds taste light and some melon seeds taste heavy, thus affecting the quality of the finished melon seeds. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a flavoring device for pumpkin seeds processing, which can ensure that the pumpkin seeds are fully flavored in the flavoring tank and prevent the pumpkin seeds from stacking and stratifying, resulting in different flavors of pumpkin seeds in different positions.
[0006] The above technical objectives of the present utility model are achieved through the following technical solutions: a flavoring device for processing pumpkin seeds, comprising a flavoring cylinder and a water inlet and a water outlet respectively arranged at both ends of the flavoring cylinder, the water inlet and the water outlet are both provided with regulating valves, a flavoring component and a stirring component are provided in the flavoring cylinder, the stirring component is provided in two groups and is symmetrically arranged at both ends of the flavoring component, a filter plate is provided below the flavoring component and the stirring component, heating plates are provided at both ends of the flavoring cylinder, the heating plates and the stirring component are spaced apart and distributed on the side walls of the flavoring cylinder, the flavoring component comprises a seasoning placement tank and a rotating component for driving the seasoning placement tank to rotate in the flavoring cylinder, smooth inclined surfaces are provided on all sides of the seasoning placement tank, and a plurality of leakage holes communicating with the outside world are provided on the seasoning placement tank.

[0027] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] A flavoring device for pumpkin seed processing, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 , including a flavoring tank 1 and a water inlet 6 and a water outlet 8 respectively opened at both ends of the flavoring tank 1, and a regulating valve 7 is provided at the water inlet 6 and the water outlet 8. A flavoring component and a stirring component are provided in the flavoring tank 1. There are two groups of stirring components and they are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the flavoring component. A filter plate 2 is provided below the flavoring component and the stirring component. A heating plate 9 is provided at both ends of the flavoring tank 1. The heating plate 9 and the stirring component are spaced apart and distributed on the side wall of the flavoring tank 1.

[0029] The stirring assembly includes a rotating shaft 10 , a plurality of stirring plates 11 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 10 , and a grooved wheel mechanism 12 for driving the rotating shaft 10 to rotate intermittently.
[0030] The plurality of stirring plates 11 are all cylindrical. The cylindrical stirring plates 11 can reduce the friction between the stirring plates 11 and the melon seeds immersed in the flavoring tank 1, making it easier for the stirring plates 11 to stir the melon seeds that are piled up and layered. The melon seeds move in the flavoring tank 1 in the direction of the stirring plates 11, preventing the melon seeds from piling up and layering, which would result in different degrees of flavoring of the melon seeds in different positions.
[0031] The rotating assembly includes a motor 5 provided on the flavoring cylinder 1 and a support rod 4 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 5. The support rod 4 extends into the flavoring cylinder 1 and is fixedly connected to the seasoning placement tank 3. The staff starts the motor 5, so that the motor 5 drives the support rod 4 to rotate in the flavoring cylinder 1, and then the rotation of the support rod 4 can drive the seasoning placement tank 3 to rotate in the flavoring cylinder 1, so that the seasoning soaked in the seasoning placement tank 3 can quickly overflow through the leakage hole under the action of the rotational force and fully contact the melon seeds in the flavoring cylinder 1, thereby improving the efficiency and effect of the melon seeds flavoring.
[0032] The flavoring cylinder 1 is provided with a moving assembly for driving the seasoning placement tank 3 to move in the flavoring cylinder 1 . The moving assembly includes a cylinder 13 provided on the flavoring cylinder 1 , and the protruding end of the cylinder 13 is fixed to the motor 5 .

[0034] Working principle: the staff first puts the seasoning bag into the seasoning placement tank 3 through the feed port, and then opens the regulating valve 7 of the water inlet 6, so that the external water source can be poured into the flavoring cylinder 1 through the water inlet 6, and at the same time opens the heating plate 9 to heat the flavoring cylinder 1, and the seasoning in the seasoning placement tank 3 can fully contact with the outside world through the leakage hole, and then the staff puts the melon seeds into the flavoring cylinder 1 through the feed port on the flavoring cylinder 1, and the melon seeds are piled on the filter plate 2 to realize that the melon seeds are immersed in the flavoring cylinder 1 filled with seasoning for flavoring, and then the staff stirs the melon seeds piled in the flavoring cylinder 1 by opening the stirring component to prevent the melon seeds from being stratified in large quantities, and at the same time drives the seasoning placement tank 3 to rotate in the flavoring cylinder 1 through the action of the rotating component, and the seasoning placement tank 3 is set The inclined surface can reduce the resistance when the seasoning placement tank 3 rotates, making it convenient for the seasoning in the seasoning placement tank 3 to overflow from the seasoning placement tank 3 and fully contact with the melon seeds. Under the action of the stirring component, the melon seeds will not always stay in the same position and accumulate in layers. After the melon seeds are fully in contact with the seasoning in the flavoring tank 1 and are flavored, the regulating valve 7 of the water outlet 8 can be opened to discharge the water, and the juice with the seasoning can be reused. The melon seeds that have been flavored are discharged through the discharge port of the flavoring tank 1 and the water is discharged. This not only facilitates the operation of the staff, but also improves the efficiency of flavoring the melon seeds, thereby ensuring the quality of the finished melon seeds, so that the melon seeds accumulated in the flavoring tank 1 can also be fully flavored without a large deviation in the taste of the melon seeds, and the taste of the produced melon seeds will also be more uniform.
[0035] The staff starts the groove wheel mechanism 12 to drive the rotating shaft 10 and the stirring plate 11 on the rotating shaft 10 to rotate intermittently in the flavoring tank 1, so that the melon seeds in the flavoring tank 1 are also stirred intermittently. This not only disperses the melon seeds in the flavoring tank 1, but also does not affect the flavoring efficiency of the melon seeds, thereby ensuring the quality of the finished melon seeds, and allowing the melon seeds in different areas to be fully flavored under the simultaneous action of the stirring component and the flavoring component.
[0036] At the same time, the staff starts the moving component to drive the entire seasoning placement tank 3 to move in the seasoning tank 1 soaked with melon seeds, so that the seasoning placement tank 3 can contact with different layers of melon seeds to improve the efficiency of melon seed seasoning, and prevent the melon seeds from being insufficiently or unevenly seasoned due to layered stacking, thereby improving the quality of the finished melon seeds. At the same time, it is convenient to adjust the position of the seasoning placement tank 3 and make it convenient for the staff to put the seasoning bag into the seasoning placement tank 3.
[0037] Starting the cylinder 13 causes the cylinder 13 to extend and shorten on the flavoring cylinder 1, thereby driving the motor 5 and the seasoning placement tank 3 connected to the motor 5 through the support rod 4 to move up and down in the flavoring cylinder 1. The structure is not complicated and the efficiency is higher, and the seasoning placement tank 3 can be located at different heights in the flavoring cylinder 1, so that the seasoning overflowing from the seasoning placement tank 3 can fully contact the melon seeds in the flavoring cylinder 1, thereby ensuring the efficiency and effect of flavoring the melon seeds.
