Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of protein powder production technology, and in particular to a continuous mixing device for protein powder production. Background Technology
[0002] Protein is the main source of nitrogen for the human body. It not only provides some of the energy consumed but also helps synthesize new tissues. Protein accounts for about 17% of an adult's body weight, and about 3% of protein participates in metabolic renewal every day.
[0003] Protein powder is a combination of purified methionine-deficient soy protein, casein, whey protein, or pea protein to supplement protein intake. During the processing and production of protein powder, the raw materials need to be mixed to ensure the protein powder formula meets requirements.
[0004] In existing protein powder mixing processes, the raw materials are typically fed into the equipment first, then mixed and discharged before the next batch is mixed. While this method is feasible, it cannot be used for continuous mixing, resulting in low efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a continuous mixing device for protein powder production to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] This invention provides a continuous mixing device for protein powder production, which solves the problems in the background art.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a continuous mixing device for protein powder production, including a device body and a main shaft. A premixing cylinder is disposed through the top surface of the device body. A first conical cylinder is installed at the top inside the device body, and a mixing cylinder is disposed through the bottom end of the first conical cylinder. A filter hole is disposed through the outer surface of the mixing cylinder. A second conical cylinder is disposed at the bottom inside the device body, and a discharge pipe is disposed through the bottom end of the second conical cylinder. A first drive motor is vertically mounted on the top surface of the premixing cylinder, and the output end of the first drive motor extends through the surface of the premixing cylinder into the interior of the device body. A push plate is disposed on the outer surface of the main shaft inside the premixing cylinder. A first mixing rod is disposed on the outer surface of the main shaft inside the mixing cylinder. A second mixing rod is disposed on the outer surface of the main shaft below the mixing cylinder. The device comprises a premixing cylinder, a first conical cylinder, a mixing cylinder, a filter hole, a second conical cylinder, a main shaft, and a push plate. The combined use of the beater plate, the first mixing rod, and the second mixing rod facilitates continuous mixing of protein powder. During operation, the operator continuously feeds various protein powder raw materials into the premixing cylinder through the respective feed hoppers. Then, the first drive motor is started, which drives the beater plate to rotate via the main shaft. Under the action of the beater plate, the protein powder inside the premixing cylinder is first mixed. After passing through the first filter screen, it enters the mixing cylinder, where it undergoes a second mixing process via the first mixing rod. The protein powder then exits through the filter holes and falls onto the second filter screen. Finally, it is mixed again via the third mixing rod. After three mixing processes, the protein powder is thoroughly mixed before being discharged through the discharge pipe. This method is simple to operate, facilitates continuous feeding and mixing of protein powder, and the three vertical mixing processes ensure thorough mixing of the protein powder, improving work efficiency.
[0008] Preferably, a first filter screen is provided at the contact point between the premixing cylinder and the device body, and a second filter screen is provided on the top surface of the second conical cylinder. By providing the first and second filter screens, it is easier to increase the residence time of the protein powder in various mixing areas, thereby improving the mixing of the protein powder.
[0009] Preferably, a cleaning rod is provided at the bottom end of the main shaft, and a brush is provided on the bottom surface of the cleaning rod. The bottom end of the brush contacts the surface of the second filter screen. By providing the cleaning rod and the brush, it is convenient to clean the protein powder mixture that falls on the surface of the second filter screen. During operation, the rotation of the main shaft will drive the cleaning rod to rotate, and then the cleaning rod will drive the brush to rotate, which will then clean the surface of the second filter screen, thereby accelerating the filtration of the protein powder and allowing it to quickly enter the discharge pipe. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the prevention of clogging of the second filter screen.
[0010] Preferably, a feeding hopper is provided through the surface of the premixing cylinder, and multiple feeding hoppers are provided. The multiple feeding hoppers are equally spaced around the outer surface of the premixing cylinder. By providing feeding hoppers, it is convenient to add protein powder raw materials. By providing multiple feeding hoppers, it is convenient to add different raw materials inside the protein powder, which facilitates subsequent mixing.
[0011] Preferably, a spiral conveyor is installed inside the discharge pipe. One end of the spiral conveyor passes through the discharge pipe and is connected to a second drive motor. By setting the spiral conveyor and the stepper motor, after the mixed protein powder enters the discharge pipe from the second conical cylinder, the stepper motor is started, and then the stepper motor drives the spiral conveyor to rotate, thereby discharging the protein powder inside the discharge pipe.
[0012] Preferably, the device body is provided with support legs at the bottom end, and there are multiple support legs. The multiple support legs are installed at equal intervals at the four corners of the bottom end of the device body. By providing support legs, it is convenient to support the device body, thereby ensuring the stability of the device body during operation.
