AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Although the roller gap of the existing malt crusher is adjustable, the malt size is inconsistent, resulting in excessive crushing of large-volume malt and affecting the quality of brewing.

Method used

Before pulverizing the malt, the particle size screening is performed through a screening device to screen out large-sized malts, adjust the gap between the crusher rollers and crush the large-sized malts. Combined with the existing malt crusher, the screening gap is adjusted by adjusting the screw height.

Benefits of technology

The crushing effect is adjusted according to the malt particle size, avoiding excessive crushing of large-volume malt, and improving the quality of brewing.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of brewing, in particular to a barley malt crusher with adjustable gap. Background Art

[0002] Crushing the malt is the first step in brewing. The purpose of malt crushing is to split the husk longitudinally to expose the endosperm inside the grain. The endosperm is broken by crushing. The husk cannot be crushed because the husk is used as the filter medium during filtration. If the husk is too broken, the permeability of the trough layer will deteriorate, making filtration difficult and the filtration time too long. The bitter substances contained in the husk will enter the wort too much, making the color of the beer darker and the taste worse.

[0003] Although the gap between the rollers of the existing malt grinder is adjustable, the size of the malt is inconsistent. When in use, it is easy for the grinding effect of ordinary large and small malt to reach the expected level, but the large-volume malt is over-grinded, affecting the quality of subsequent brewing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model provides a barley malt crusher with adjustable gap, which is used to solve the above technical problems.

[0005] A barley malt crusher with adjustable gap includes a hopper and a crusher, and also includes a screening device, which is arranged between the hopper and the crusher. The screening device includes a box body and a screen rod, and a plurality of evenly arranged connecting rods are provided in the box body. The box body is provided with an arc groove, and the arc groove is located between the connecting rods. The screen rod is located in the arc groove.

[0006] Furthermore, connecting strips are provided at both ends of the sieve rod.

[0007] Furthermore, the sieve rod is provided with two blocking pieces, and the blocking pieces can block the arc groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a connecting block and screws are provided on the outside of the box, and the connecting strips are located on the screws.

[0009] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the malt is screened according to the particle size before crushing, and the malt with large particles is retained, and then the gap between the rollers of the crusher is adjusted to crush the malt with large particles; the structure is simple and the existing malt crusher can be used for modification; the height of the screw can be adjusted according to the malt particle size that needs to be passed.

[0015] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, features defined as "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.

[0016] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, “a plurality of” means two or more.

[0017] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0018] A barley malt crusher with adjustable gap includes a hopper 1 and a crusher 3, and also includes a screening device 2, which is arranged between the hopper 1 and the crusher 3. The screening device 2 includes a box body 4 and a screen rod 9, and a plurality of evenly arranged connecting rods 7 are provided in the box body 4. The box body 4 is provided with an arc groove 8, and the arc groove 8 is located between the connecting rods 7. The screen rod 9 is located in the arc groove 8. Connecting strips 11 are provided at both ends of the screen rod 9, and two baffles 10 are provided on the screen rod 9. The baffles 10 can block the arc groove 8. A connecting block 5 and a screw 6 are provided on the outside of the box body 4, and the connecting strip 11 is located on the screw 6.

[0019] During use, the height of screw 6 is adjusted as needed, and the connecting bar 11 drives the sieve bar 9 up and down, causing the gap between the sieve bar 9 and the connecting rod 7 to change, thereby adjusting the particle size of the malt to be screened. When malt is poured into the hopper 1, malt smaller than the gap between the sieve bar 9 and the connecting rod 7 will fall into the grinder 3, while malt larger than the gap between the sieve bar 9 and the connecting rod 7 will remain in the screening device 2. After the malt is screened, the distance between the rollers of the grinder 3 is adjusted, and the connecting bar 11 is manually lifted upward, and the remaining large-sized malt particles will fall into the grinder 3.

[0020] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such changes and improvements shall fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
