Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wheat processing, and particularly relates to a wheat processing moisturizing bin. BACKGROUND

[0002] The moisturizing bin is a storage bin for storing wheat after water is added to the wheat before the wheat is milled. In the moisturizing bin, the water on the surface of the wheat fully penetrates into the interior of the wheat, so that the internal structure of the wheat is soft and the surface of the wheat is more tenacious. This helps to completely separate the surface of the wheat from the endosperm in the next grinding process, so that bran is not easily mixed into flour and the endosperm is more easily broken. However, when the wheat is moisturized in the moisturizing bin, too much water is added, which easily causes mold to grow due to excessive humidity. Too little water is added, which does not achieve an ideal moisturizing effect and affects subsequent processes. In addition, due to the nature of the wheat, uneven water addition during the water-adding process easily causes the wheat to clump, which blocks the discharge outlet and affects discharge. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a wheat processing moisturizing bin that has controllable humidity, uniform moisturizing, and is not prone to clumping. SUMMARY

[0003] In view of the above technical problems, the utility model provides a wheat processing moisturizing bin that has uniform moisturizing, controllable humidity, and is not prone to clumping, to solve the problems of uncontrollable humidity and clumping during the moisturizing process of the existing moisturizing bin.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model discloses a wheat processing moisturizing bin, which comprises a bin body, a bin cover connected to the upper part of the bin body, supporting legs fixedly connected to the lower part of the bin body, a discharge outlet formed in the bottom of the bin body, an inlet opening formed in the bin cover, a motor fixedly connected to the upper part of the bin cover, a stirring paddle fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, a humidity measuring sensor fixedly connected to the lower part of the inner side of the bin body, the humidity measuring sensor being in communication connection with a controller, a water inlet pipe connected to the upper part of one side of the bin body, the water inlet pipe extending through the side wall of the bin body and being in communication connection with a moisturizing pipe inside the bin body, the moisturizing pipe extending vertically downward to the bottom of the bin body, a plurality of water outlets formed in the moisturizing pipe, a valve fixedly connected to the water inlet pipe, and the valve being controlled by the controller.

[0005] Further, the discharge outlet has two discharge valves fixedly connected thereto, and the inlet opening and the discharge outlet are detachably connected with a cover.

[0006] Further, a plurality of slide rails are fixedly connected to the bottom of the bin cover, and a water absorption box is slidably connected to the lower end of the slide rails.

[0008] Further, the bottom of the water absorption box is a porous net structure, and the water absorption box is filled with a desiccant.

[0009] Further, the top of the wheat moistening pipe is fixedly connected with the inner top of the bin cover through a fixing member.

[0010] Further, the stirring paddle is a spiral stirring paddle.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0012] The utility model discloses a wheat moistening pipe extending to the inside of the bin body and being provided with a plurality of water outlets, and a spiral stirring paddle for stirring the wheat along the axial direction, so that the wheat in the bin body can be uniformly watered and stirred, and the caked wheat can be effectively broken up; the humidity measuring sensor is used to monitor the storage humidity in the bin body in real time, and the controller is used to control the valve fixedly connected to the water inlet pipe to stop adding water to the bin body, so that the humidity in the bin body can be well controlled during the moistening process; the water absorption box is used to avoid the accumulation of a large amount of water at the bottom of the bin cover during the storage process, and the mildew phenomenon can be effectively prevented.
