[0002] The main ingredients of tofu skin are soybeans and glutinous rice. It is often eaten as breakfast and has rich nutritional value. It contains rich high-quality protein and a large amount of lecithin, which can prevent vascular sclerosis, cardiovascular disease and protect the heart. At the same time, it can prevent osteoporosis caused by calcium deficiency and promote bone development.

[0003] For example, a fully automatic tofu skin forming and processing device with the existing publication number CN109874874B specifically discloses a chassis, wherein a fixed groove is fixedly installed on the upper end of the chassis, a soy milk pool is fixedly installed inside the fixed groove, a heater is fixedly installed at the bottom of the soy milk pool, a roller is rotatably connected to the left side of the soy milk pool, a liquid level sensor is fixedly installed at the left position of the soy milk pool, and a bevel gear is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the three-stage drive motor and one end of the receiving roller. This fully automatic tofu skin forming and processing device can fully automatically process soy milk into tofu skin without manual labor, thus reducing the number of staff and production costs.

The first top plate 4 and the second top plate 5 are both made of heat-conducting metal. A heating plate 6 is installed inside the first top plate 4 and the second top plate 5. A first vertical rod 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the first top plate 4. The first vertical rod 7 passes through the container 1 and is hollow inside. A second vertical rod 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the second top plate 5. The second vertical rod 8 passes through the container 1. The second vertical rod 8 also includes a connecting plate 9. The connecting plate 9 is located at the lower end of the container 1. The lower end of the first vertical rod 7 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 9. The lower end of the second vertical rod 8 is rotatably mounted on the connecting plate 9. A support frame 10 is provided at the lower end of the connecting plate 9. The end of the support frame 10 is fixedly connected to the support column 2. A first motor 11 is fixedly installed on the support frame 10. A screw 12 is rotatably installed at the top of the support frame 10. The upper end of the screw 12 is inserted into the first vertical rod 7 and is threadedly connected to the first vertical rod 7. The lower end of the screw 12 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 11. After the soy milk is boiled, its temperature is maintained at around 60 degrees, and an appropriate amount of brine is added to coagulate the protein. After a period of time, a thin layer of skin will form on the surface of the soy milk. When removing the skin, the first motor 11 drives the screw 12 to rotate, which drives the first vertical rod 7 to move upward. The first vertical rod 7, the connecting plate 9, and the second vertical rod 8 rotate synchronously, which can drive the first top plate 4 and the second top plate 5 to move upward slowly. When the first top plate 4 and the second top plate 5 move to the skin on the surface of the soy milk, the skin can be pushed out, thereby replacing manual operation, preventing the skin from being damaged or broken, and maintaining a good appearance.

[0024] Among them, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a cover plate 3 is provided at the upper end of the container 1, and the cover plate 3 can block the upper port of the container 1, and a handle is fixedly installed on the top of the cover plate 3. Anti-slip pads are provided at the bottom of the support columns 2. The outside of the container 1 is wrapped with a thermal insulation cotton cover. A plurality of blades 13 distributed in a circular array are fixedly installed on the outside of the second top plate 5. A spline groove 14 is provided inside one of the second vertical rods 8, and a second motor 15 is fixedly installed on the support frame 10. A spline shaft 16 is fixedly installed on the output shaft end of the second motor 15, and the spline shaft 16 is inserted into the spline groove 14 and the splines are matched. A driven wheel 17 is fixedly installed on the second vertical rod 8, and a transmission wheel 18 is rotatably installed on the first vertical rod 7. The transmission wheel 18 is engaged with multiple driven wheels 17 on the outside. A protective cover 19 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the container 1, and the protective cover 19 covers the outside of the connecting plate 9. During the soy milk burning process, the spline shaft 16 is driven to rotate by the second motor 15, and the spline shaft 16 drives one of the second vertical rods 8 to rotate through the spline groove 14. Cooperating with the transmission action of multiple driven wheels 17 and the transmission wheel 18, the remaining second vertical rods 8 can be driven to rotate, so that multiple second vertical rods 8 rotate synchronously, and the second top plate 5 and the blades 13 on the second vertical rods 8 rotate synchronously. The blades 13 stir and mix the soy milk, which can keep the soy milk heated evenly and avoid local overheating and burning of the soy milk.

[0025] The working principle of this utility model is:

[0026] Filtered soy milk is placed in container 1 and heated by heating plate 6. Heat is transferred from first top plate 4 and second top plate 5 to the soy milk, bringing it to a boil. During the boiling process, second motor 15 drives spline shaft 16 to rotate. Spline shaft 16, via spline groove 14, drives one of second vertical rods 8 to rotate. This, in conjunction with the transmission action of multiple driven wheels 17 and transmission wheel 18, drives the remaining second vertical rods 8 to rotate, thereby causing multiple second vertical rods 8 to rotate synchronously. The second top plate 5 and blades 13 on the second vertical rods 8 rotate synchronously, and the blades 13 stir and mix the soy milk, ensuring uniform heating of the soy milk and preventing local overheating and burning.

[0027] After the soy milk is boiled, its temperature is maintained at about 60 degrees, and an appropriate amount of brine is added to coagulate the protein. After a period of time, a thin layer of skin will form on the surface of the soy milk. When scooping out the bean skin, the first motor 11 drives the screw 12 to rotate, and the screw 12 drives the first vertical rod 7 to move upward. The first vertical rod 7, the connecting plate 9 and the second vertical rod 8 rotate synchronously, which can drive the first top plate 4 and the second top plate 5 to move up slowly. When the first top plate 4 and the second top plate 5 move to the bean skin on the surface of the soy milk, the bean skin can be pushed out, thereby replacing manual operation. During the process of pushing out the bean skin, multiple points of force are applied to avoid excessive force on a certain part of the bean skin and tearing. At the same time, the contact surface between the first top plate 4 and the second top plate 5 and the bean skin is large, and the bean skin is not easily damaged or broken, which can keep the bean skin in a good appearance.
