Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rice processing equipment, and particularly discloses a cooling device for rice processing. Background Art

[0002] Rice, also known as paddy, is one of the important food crops of mankind. It is a food made from rice grains after processes such as cleaning, husking, milling, and finished product finishing. Rice has a high starch content and is rich in nutrients. It is the staple food of people in most parts of China. During the rice production process, in order to prevent the nutrients in the rice from being lost due to high temperature, a cooling device is needed to cool the rice.

[0003] Chinese patent number CN219757043U discloses a cooling device for rice processing, which relates to the field of rice processing technology. The device comprises a base, a cooling box is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and a discharge port is provided on one side of the bottom of the cooling box. The rice entering the cooling box can be spread out through the inclined plate three, so that the heat inside the rice is lost. The rice on the inclined plate three will fall on the inclined plate two, and the rice will be spread out again for heat dissipation. The rice on the inclined plate two will fall on the inclined plate one, and the rice will be spread out again for heat dissipation. The gas in the connecting box can be sucked into the outlet pipe and into the atmosphere through the fan, and then the gas in the cooling box can enter the two connecting hoses, which can dissipate heat in the cooling box. The rice is lost into the atmosphere, thereby cooling the rice, thereby solving the problem that the existing rice cooling device consumes a lot of energy and cannot fully cool the rice. However, in the process of cooling the rice, the rice slides and spreads on the three inclined plates. However, when a large amount of rice is injected into the cooling box at the same time, the rice on the inclined plates is thick, which is not conducive to uniform heat dissipation and cooling of the rice, affecting the efficiency of rice cooling. The above cooling device is not conducive to observing the operation of the relevant components in the cooling box, and is not conducive to the cleaning and maintenance of the relevant components in the cooling box. In addition, the above cooling device is inconvenient to move. When the position needs to be adjusted, the worker needs to spend effort to carry it, which is relatively inconvenient. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the utility model proposes a cooling device for rice processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a cooling device for rice processing, which can break up the rice multiple times in the process of the rice passing through multiple material guide plates in sequence, thereby increasing the contact area between the rice and the cold air blown into the cooling box by the air cooler, ensuring the quality of rice cooling, improving the efficiency of rice cooling, making it easy to observe the operation of relevant components inside the cooling box, facilitating workers to clean and maintain it in time, and being easy to move and fix, so that the position of the cooling device can be adjusted according to actual needs, saving workers' effort in carrying.

[0005] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A cooling device for rice processing includes a cooling box and an air cooling mechanism. The air cooling mechanism is provided on both sides of the cooling box. Brackets are provided on both sides of the air cooling mechanism. The cooling box includes an outer shell, a material guide plate, a stirring rod, a motor and a sealing plate. The cooling mechanism includes an air cooler, an air guide pipe and a filter cover.

[0007] As a further arrangement of the above scheme, the upper and lower ends of the shell are respectively connected with a feed hopper and a discharge hopper, which is convenient for injecting the rice to be cooled into the cooling box and discharging the cooled rice out of the cooling box to avoid rice accumulation in the cooling box. An exhaust pipe is provided on one side of the feed hopper to facilitate the discharge of high-temperature air in the cooling box. Two first mounting holes are provided on both sides of the shell to facilitate the installation of air guide pipes. Four second mounting holes are provided on one side of the shell to facilitate the installation of a stirring rod. Four inclined guide plates are detachably connected to the inner side of the shell, which can extend the time the rice stays in the cooling box and facilitate the contact between the rice and the low-temperature air. A stirring rod is provided inside the second mounting hole to break up the rice before it falls on the four guide plates in turn, thereby increasing air circulation between the rice and accelerating the cooling speed of the rice.

[0008] As a further configuration of the above scheme, a plurality of silicone plates are provided on the outside of the stirring rod, which can break up the rice, increase the air circulation speed between the rice, and avoid damaging the rice. The end of the stirring rod away from the second mounting hole is rotatably connected to a support plate, and one end of the support plate is detachably connected to the outer shell, which can provide support for the stirring rod and facilitate the installation and maintenance of the support plate and the stirring rod. The outer side of the end of the stirring rod away from the support plate is rotatably connected to a first support seat, and a motor is provided on one side of the first support seat, which can provide power for the rotation of the stirring rod.

[0009] As a further arrangement of the above scheme, the motor is connected to the stirring rod, and a second support seat is provided on the outside of the motor. A mounting plate is commonly connected to the bottom of the first support seat and the second support seat, and one end of the mounting plate is connected to the outer shell, which can provide stable support for the motor and the stirring rod, and facilitate the assembly and maintenance of the above components. The side of the outer shell away from the motor is detachably connected to a sealing plate, which is convenient for the installation and maintenance of the components inside the cooling box. A transparent observation plate is provided inside the sealing plate, which is convenient for workers to observe the operation of the internal components of the cooling box, so that when blockage or component damage occurs, timely response can be made to reduce the impact on the rice cooling operation.

[0010] As a further arrangement of the above scheme, the outer side of the air cooler is connected to the bracket, which can provide stable support for the air cooling mechanism, so that the air cooling mechanism remains stable during the rice cooling process. The air outlet end of the air cooler is connected to a three-way pipe, and both ends of the three-way pipe are connected to air ducts, which is convenient for using one air cooler to inject low-temperature air into the cooling box through two air ducts at the same time, saving resources. The air duct runs through the interior of the first mounting hole, and the end of the air duct away from the three-way pipe is connected to a filter cover, which can prevent rice from entering the air duct and reduce the workload of cleaning and maintaining the air duct.

[0011] As a further arrangement of the above scheme, the two brackets are detachably connected to the outer shell, which is convenient for assembly and maintenance of the outer shell and the brackets.

[0023] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Figures 1 to 5 , and describes the application in detail with reference to embodiments.

[0025] The embodiment discloses a cooling device for rice processing, including a cooling box 1 and an air cooling mechanism 2. The air cooling mechanism 2 is provided on both sides of the cooling box 1, and a bracket 3 is provided on both sides of the air cooling mechanism 2. The cooling box 1 includes an outer shell 11, a material guide plate 12, a stirring dryer, a motor 16 and a sealing plate 18. The cooling mechanism includes an air cooler 21, an air guide pipe 23 and a filter cover 24.

[0026] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the upper and lower ends of the shell 11 are respectively connected with a feed hopper 111 and a discharge hopper 112, which are convenient for injecting the rice to be cooled into the cooling box 1 and discharging the cooled rice out of the cooling box 1 to avoid rice accumulation in the cooling box 1. An exhaust pipe 113 is provided on one side of the feed hopper 111 to facilitate the discharge of high-temperature air in the cooling box 1. Two first mounting holes 114 are provided on both sides of the shell 11 to facilitate the installation of the air guide pipe 23. Four second mounting holes 115 are provided on one side of the shell 11 to facilitate the installation of the stirring rod 13. Four inclined guide plates 12 are detachably connected to the inner side of the shell 11, which can extend the time the rice stays in the cooling box 1 and facilitate the contact between the rice and the low-temperature air. The stirring rod 13 is penetrated inside the second mounting hole 115, which can break up the rice before it falls on the four guide plates 12 in turn, thereby increasing the air circulation between the rice and accelerating the cooling speed of the rice.

[0027] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of silicone plates 131 are provided on the outside of the stirring rod 13, which can break up the rice, increase the air circulation speed between the rice, and avoid damaging the rice. The end of the stirring rod 13 away from the second mounting hole 115 is rotatably connected to the support plate 14, and one end of the support plate 14 is detachably connected to the outer shell 11, which can provide support for the stirring rod 13 while facilitating the installation and maintenance of the support plate 14 and the stirring rod 13. The outer side of the end of the stirring rod 13 away from the support plate 14 is rotatably connected to the first support seat 15, and a motor 16 is provided on one side of the first support seat 15, which can provide power for the rotation of the stirring rod 13.

[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the motor 16 is connected to the stirring rod 13, and a second support seat 161 is provided on the outside of the motor 16. The first support seat 15 and the second support seat 161 are commonly connected to the bottom of a mounting plate 17. One end of the mounting plate 17 is connected to the outer shell 11, which can provide stable support for the motor 16 and the stirring rod 13, and facilitate the assembly and maintenance of the above components. The side of the outer shell 11 away from the motor 16 is detachably connected to a sealing plate 18, which is convenient for the installation and maintenance of the components inside the cooling box 1. A transparent observation plate 181 is provided inside the sealing plate 18, which is convenient for workers to observe the operation of the internal components of the cooling box 1, so that when blockage or component damage occurs, timely response can be made to reduce the impact on the rice cooling operation.

[0029] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer side of the air cooler 21 is connected to the bracket 3, which can provide stable support for the air cooling mechanism 2, so that the air cooling mechanism 2 remains stable during the rice cooling process. The air outlet end of the air cooler 21 is connected to a three-way pipe 22, and both ends of the three-way pipe 22 are connected to an air duct 23, which is convenient for using one air cooler 21 to inject low-temperature air into the cooling box 1 through two air ducts 23 at the same time, saving resources. The air duct 23 runs through the interior of the first mounting hole 114, and the end of the air duct 23 away from the three-way pipe 22 is connected to a filter cover 24, which can prevent rice from entering the air duct 23 and reduce the workload of cleaning and maintaining the air duct 23.

[0030] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the two brackets 3 are detachably connected to the outer shell 11, which is convenient for the assembly and maintenance of the outer shell and the bracket 3. A plurality of universal brake wheels 31 are connected to the bottom of the two brackets 3 to facilitate the adjustment and fixation of the position of the device. A storage box 5 and a controller 4 are respectively provided above the two brackets 3 to facilitate the placement of components in the cooling device, and to control the operation of the motor 16 and the air cooler 21 in the cooling device to ensure that the cooling device cools the rice smoothly.

[0031] The cooling device for rice processing disclosed in this embodiment is as follows: before use, the brake of the universal brake wheel 31 is released, and after the cooling device is moved to a suitable position, the brake of the universal brake wheel 31 is stepped on to fix the position of the cooling device, and the discharge hopper 112 is connected to the original material receiving device. The motor 16 and the two air coolers 21 are started by using the controller 4, so that the motor 16 drives the stirring rod 13 to rotate, and the air coolers 21 inject low-temperature air into the cooling box 1 through the three-way pipe 22 and the air guide pipe 23, and then the rice to be cooled is injected into the cooling box 1 through the feed port. During the process of falling in the cooling box 1, the rice first contacts the stirring rod 13 on the uppermost layer, and the rotating stirring rod 13 and the silica gel plate 131 are lifted up, which increases the contact time between the rice and the low-temperature air, thereby improving the contact between the rice and the low-temperature air. The air circulates between the rice. At this time, the cold air blown out from the air guide 23 located on the side of the stirring rod 13 contacts the rice, cooling the rice for the first time. Then the rice falls on the uppermost inclined guide plate 12, slides downward along the inclination direction of the guide plate 12, and separates from the guide plate 12. Then, it continues to fall and contacts the second stirring rod 13 from the top. It is lifted up by the stirring rod 13 again. The low-temperature air blown out from the air guide 23 in another air-cooling mechanism 2 on the side of the stirring rod 13 cools the rice for the second time. Then, the rice falls on the second inclined guide plate 12, and then falls on the third and fourth guide plates 12 in turn, until it slides off the fourth inclined guide plate 12, is discharged from the cooling box 1 from the discharging hopper 112, and falls into the receiving device. The cooling is completed.

[0032] During the cooling process, the low-temperature air injected into the cooling box 1 by the air cooler 21 absorbs the heat in the rice and forms high-temperature air which is discharged upward through the exhaust pipe 113 to achieve air circulation inside and outside the cooling box 1. The operation of the relevant components in the cooling box 1 can be observed through the transparent observation plate 181. When a component failure or blockage occurs, the controller 4 is used to shut down the motor 16 and the air cooler 21 in time, and the sealing plate 18 is removed from one side of the outer shell 11. The components are inspected and the blockage is cleared. After the inspection and cleaning are completed, the sealing plate 18 is installed and reset, and the rice cooling operation can be continued.

[0033] The cooling device for rice processing disclosed by the present invention includes a cooling box 1, an air cooling mechanism 2, a bracket 3, a controller 4, a storage box 5, a shell 11, a feed hopper 111, a discharge hopper 112, an exhaust pipe 113, a first mounting hole 114, a second mounting hole 115, a material guide plate 12, a stirring rod 13, a silica gel plate 131, a support plate 14, a first support seat 15, a motor 16, a second support seat 161, a mounting plate 17, a sealing plate 18, a transparent observation plate 181, an air cooler 21, a three-way pipe 22, an air guide pipe 23, a filter cover 24, a universal brake wheel 31 and other components, which are all universal standard parts or components known to those skilled in the art, and their structures and principles can be known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.

Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
