Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of slurry production, in particular to a homogenizer for producing plant-based ice cream slurry. Background Art

[0002] During the slurry production process, the homogenizer can improve the fineness and looseness of the slurry, and significantly improve its internal texture.

[0003] During the production of ice cream slurry, residual slurry will remain on the inner wall of the inner cylinder of the homogenizer. If the residual slurry is not cleaned in time, it will affect subsequent production. The existing homogenizer is more troublesome to clean the inner wall because the slurry will coagulate after a period of time. It cannot be cleaned quickly by water impact alone, and it is too troublesome to use tools to clean it.

[0004] In view of the problem that the inner wall of the above-mentioned existing homogenizer is difficult to clean and cannot be quickly cleaned by water flow impact alone, a cleaning structure is designed to overcome the above problem by quickly scraping off the dirt on the inner wall. Utility Model Content

An inner barrel is provided in the homogenizer main body, and the inner barrel is used for crushing and stirring the slurry. An annular rubber ring is provided on the bottom surface of the inner barrel, and the upper end of the annular rubber ring is fixedly connected to the slide rod, and a bottom plate is provided on one side of the homogenizer main body, and a slide groove is provided on the bottom plate, and a slider is slidably connected to the slide groove, and a cleaning brush is fixedly connected between the two sliders. The annular rubber ring and the slide rod constitute a cleaning component 1 for cleaning residue on the inner wall of the inner barrel, and the cleaning brush, the slide groove and the slider constitute a cleaning component 2 for cleaning residue on the surface of the bottom plate.

[0007] Preferably, the main body of the homogenizer is of existing technology, which is used for homogenizing and emulsifying the ice cream slurry. The cooling fan is used for cooling and dissipating heat. The upper cover is used to seal the upper end of the inner cylinder. The upper cover is rotated to open, and then the slurry is poured into the inner cylinder. Under the action of stirring and high-pressure crushing, the slurry is homogenized and emulsified. After completion, the discharge port is opened to discharge the homogenized and emulsified slurry. The cleaning component 1 pulls the upper connecting frame to make the annular rubber ring clean the residue on the inner wall of the inner cylinder, so that the inner wall cleaning work can be completed quickly and easily, and the component will not vibrate or make noise during the homogenization process. When the bottom plate of the cleaning component 2 is rotated upward and placed in the groove of the homogenizer main body, the slider will drive the cleaning brush to clean the surface of the bottom plate to prepare for the next use, to prevent the bottom plate from being too smooth due to slurry residue and causing the receiving bucket to slip.

[0008] Preferably, a positioning block is fixedly installed on the inner wall surface of the inner cylinder, and the slide rod passes through the positioning block. The slide rod is slidably connected to the positioning block. The positioning block facilitates the sliding of the slide rod, which is more convenient and labor-saving when pulling the upper connecting frame.

The sealing ring is adapted to the inner cylinder and is used to tighten the connection between the upper connecting frame and the inner cylinder to prevent the upper connecting frame from vibrating and generating noise during the homogenization process.

[0010] Preferably, the upper connecting frame is provided with a herringbone handle, which is used to pull the slide rod. When the inner cylinder needs to be cleaned, the herringbone handle facilitates pulling the upper connecting frame from different directions.

[0011] Preferably, a groove is provided on one side of the homogenizer body, and the bottom plate is rotated upward and stored in the groove of the homogenizer body. When the bottom plate is not in use, it can be folded into the groove, thereby saving space.

[0012] Preferably, a fixing seat is fixedly installed in the groove of the homogenizer body, a connecting arm is rotatably installed on the fixing seat, and a slider is rotatably installed at the other end of the connecting arm. The lower end of the cleaning brush is in contact with the upper end of the bottom plate. When the bottom plate is rotated upward and placed into the groove of the homogenizer body, the slider will drive the cleaning brush to clean the surface of the bottom plate.

[0013] Preferably, a handle is fixedly mounted on one side of the bottom plate, and a magnet is fixedly mounted on the handle. The magnet is used to adsorb the bottom plate on one side of the homogenizer body, which facilitates the rotation, expansion and folding of the bottom plate, which can be achieved by pulling the handle.

[0014] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0015] 1.

A slider 18 is slidably connected to the slide groove 14, and a cleaning brush 13 is fixedly connected between the two sliders 18. The annular rubber ring 6 and the slide rod 7 constitute a cleaning component for cleaning the residue on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 5. The cleaning brush 13 The chute 14 and the slider 18 constitute a cleaning component 2 for cleaning the residue on the surface of the bottom plate 17. The homogenizer body 1 is a prior art and is used for homogenizing and emulsifying the ice cream slurry. The cooling fan 2 is used for cooling and heat dissipation. The upper cover 3 is used to seal the upper end of the inner cylinder 5. The upper cover 3 is rotated to open, and then the slurry is poured into the inner cylinder 5. Under the action of stirring and high-pressure crushing, the slurry is homogenized and emulsified. After completion, the discharge port 4 is opened to discharge the homogenized and emulsified slurry. The cleaning component 1 pulls the upper connecting frame 8 to make the annular rubber ring 6 clean the residue on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 5, so that the inner wall cleaning work can be completed quickly and easily, and the component will not vibrate and make noise during the homogenization process. When the bottom plate 17 is rotated upward and placed in the groove of the homogenizer body 1, the slider 18 will drive the cleaning brush 13 to clean the surface of the bottom plate 17 to prepare for the next use, so as to prevent the bottom plate 17 from being too smooth due to slurry residue and causing the receiving bucket to slip.

[0025] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The upper part of the slide 7 is fixedly connected to the upper connecting frame 8, and the upper connecting frame 8 is fixedly connected to the upper connecting frame 8. The sealing ring 10 is adapted to the inner cylinder 5, and the sealing ring 10 is used to tighten the connection between the upper connecting frame 8 and the inner cylinder 5 to prevent the upper connecting frame 8 from vibrating and generating noise during the homogenization process. The upper connecting frame 8 is provided with a herringbone handle, and the herringbone handle on the upper connecting frame 8 is used to pull the slide bar 7. When the inner cylinder 5 needs to be cleaned, the herringbone handle is convenient for pulling the upper connecting frame 8 from different directions.

When the bottom plate 17 is not in use, it can be folded into the groove, thereby saving space. A fixing seat 11 is fixedly installed in the groove of the homogenizer body 1, and a connecting arm 12 is rotatably installed on the fixing seat 11. The slider 18 is rotatably installed at the other end of the connecting arm 12, and the lower end of the cleaning brush 13 is in contact with the upper end of the bottom plate 17. In the process of rotating the bottom plate 17 upward and placing it in the groove of the homogenizer body 1, the slider 18 will drive the cleaning brush 13 to clean the surface of the bottom plate 17. A handle 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom plate 17, and a magnet 16 is fixedly installed on the handle 15. The magnet 16 is used to adsorb the bottom plate 17 on one side of the homogenizer body 1, which facilitates the rotation, expansion and folding of the bottom plate 17, which can be achieved by pulling the handle 15.

[0027] During use, the main body 1 of the homogenizer is of existing technology, which is used for homogenizing and emulsifying the ice cream slurry. The cooling fan 2 is used for cooling and heat dissipation. The upper cover 3 is used to seal the upper end of the inner cylinder 5. The upper cover 3 is rotated to open, and then the slurry is poured into the inner cylinder 5. Under the action of stirring and high-pressure crushing, the slurry is homogenized and emulsified. After completion, the discharge port 4 is opened to discharge the homogenized and emulsified slurry. After the slurry is discharged, there will be residues left on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 5, which is not easy to remove. Pour water into the inner cylinder 5, pull the upper connecting frame 8 back and forth, and the slide rod 7 slides on the positioning block 9 at the same time. The annular rubber ring 6 at the lower end of the slide rod 7 will remove the residue. After scraping off the residue on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 5 and opening the discharge port 4, the scraped residue flows out with the water. During the operation, slurry may fall on the bottom plate 17 from time to time, causing the upper end of the bottom plate 17 to be too smooth. When the receiving bucket is placed on the bottom plate 17 to receive the material, it is very easy to slide off the bottom plate 17. After the operation is completed, the bottom plate 17 is rotated upward and placed back in the groove of the homogenizer body 1. During this process, the slider 18 slides on the chute 14, and the cleaning brush 13 on the slider 18 removes the residual slurry on the bottom plate 17 to prepare for the next use, thereby preventing the bottom plate 17 from being too smooth due to the slurry residue.

[0028] Through the above steps, the cleaning component 1 pulls the upper connecting frame 8 to make the annular rubber ring 6 scrape off the residue on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 5, so that the inner wall cleaning work can be completed quickly and easily, and the component will not generate vibration and noise during the homogenization process. When the bottom plate 17 of the cleaning component 2 is rotated upward and placed in the groove of the homogenizer body 1, the slider 18 will drive the cleaning brush 13 to clean the surface of the bottom plate 17 to prepare for the next use, and prevent the bottom plate 17 from being too smooth due to slurry residue, causing the receiving bucket to slip.
