Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, and in particular to a mixing device for konjac food production. Background Technology
[0002] Konjac, a highly beneficial alkaline food, is increasingly popular due to its low calorie, low fat, and high fiber content. Konjac foods are primarily made by mixing konjac flour with water, adding edible alkali and various food additives, and then stirring the mixture.
[0003] Currently, most konjac food products are mixed and stirred using ordinary food mixers. However, due to the high viscosity of konjac liquid, ordinary food mixers are prone to causing unsatisfactory stirring results and low stirring efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to improve the problem that ordinary food mixers are prone to causing unsatisfactory mixing effect and low mixing efficiency when mixing konjac liquid, this application provides a mixing device for konjac food production.
[0005] The mixing equipment for konjac food production provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A mixing device for konjac food production includes a support frame, a mixing tank, a rotating disc, a first rotating shaft, a second rotating shaft, a first power unit, and a second power unit. The mixing tank is mounted on the support frame and has a feed inlet at its top. The rotating disc is rotatably connected to the top of the mixing tank around its axis. The first rotating shaft is fixed to the rotating disc along the axis of the mixing tank, and the first power unit drives the rotating disc to rotate. Multiple second rotating shafts are rotatably connected to the rotating disc and are evenly distributed around the axis of the mixing tank, all parallel to the first rotating shafts. The second power unit drives each second rotating shaft to rotate. Both the first and second rotating shafts are equipped with mixing blades.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first power component drives the rotating disk to rotate, the rotating disk drives the first rotating shaft to rotate around the axis of the mixing tank, thereby causing the stirring blades fixed on the first rotating shaft to rotate accordingly, achieving preliminary stirring of the material in the mixing tank; at the same time, the second power component drives each second rotating shaft to rotate. Since the second rotating shafts are evenly distributed around the axis of the mixing tank and parallel to the first rotating shaft, the stirring blades on each second rotating shaft also rotate synchronously, further enhancing the stirring effect and ensuring uniform mixing of the material; in addition, the synergistic effect of the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft not only improves the stirring efficiency, but also avoids dead zones in the material during the stirring process, ensuring the stirring quality.
[0008] Optionally, the second power component includes an internal gear ring and a first gear. The internal gear ring is coaxially connected to the mixing tank, and each of the second rotating shafts is coaxially connected to a first gear. The internal gear ring meshes with each of the first gears.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first power component drives the rotating disk to rotate, it will drive the second rotating shaft to rotate with the rotating disk. Since the first gear on the second rotating shaft meshes with the internal gear ring, it will drive the first gear on each of the second rotating shafts to roll along the teeth of the internal gear ring. This causes the second rotating shaft to revolve around the axis of the rotating disk while rotating on its own axis, thereby causing the second rotating shaft and its stirring blades to rotate and stir. This achieves the functional requirement of the second power component to drive the rotation of each of the second rotating shafts. This design not only realizes multi-directional stirring, but also ensures that the materials are mixed more evenly during the stirring process, thus improving the stirring efficiency.
[0010] Optionally, a mounting block is connected to the rotating disk. The length direction of the mounting block is parallel to the axis of the mixing tank. A scraper is provided on the side of the mounting block away from the axis of the mixing tank, and the scraper abuts against the inner wall of the mixing tank.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the scraper can effectively remove residues on the inner wall of the mixing tank, prevent materials from adhering to the tank wall, thereby improving the mixing uniformity and cleaning efficiency.
[0012] Optionally, the mounting block has a slot on the side opposite to the axis of the mixing tank. The scraper slides radially along the mixing tank and is locked in the slot. A compression spring is connected to the inner wall of the slot. The other end of the compression spring is connected to the scraper. The compression spring tends to press the scraper against the inner wall of the mixing tank.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the combination of the slot and the compression spring allows the scraper to better fit the inner wall of the mixing tank, effectively removing the material adhering to the inner wall and preventing cross-contamination caused by material residue or affecting the quality of subsequent batches of products. In addition, the design of the compression spring gives the scraper a certain degree of retraction elasticity, which can adapt to the inner wall of the mixing tank of different shapes, improving cleaning efficiency and effect. The scraper can slide along the slot, which is convenient for replacement and maintenance, and extends the service life of the equipment.
[0014] Optionally, the outer peripheral wall of the mixing tank is covered with a heating ring with an inner cavity. The heating ring has an air inlet and an air outlet that communicate with the inner cavity. The air inlet is used to communicate with an external steam generator.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the heating ring can heat the material while it is being stirred, reducing the viscosity of the material and improving the mixing effect and efficiency.
[0016] Optionally, a first rotating rod is laterally connected to the upper part of the outer peripheral wall of the mixing tank. The first rotating rod is rotatably connected to the bracket around its own axis. The bracket is provided with an adjustment component for rotating the first rotating rod.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotational connection design of the first rotating rod around its own axis allows the mixing tank to tilt at a certain angle, thereby facilitating the loading and unloading of materials and ensuring uniform mixing; the setting of the adjustment component further improves the ease of operation and enhances the practicality and work efficiency of the equipment.
[0018] Optionally, the adjustment assembly includes a worm gear, a worm, and a rocker arm. The worm is rotatably connected to the bracket, the rocker arm is vertically fixed to the worm, and the worm gear is coaxially connected to the first rotating rod, with the worm gear meshing with the worm.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to adjust the angle of the mixing tank, the rocker arm can be manually rotated to drive the worm gear to rotate, which in turn causes the worm wheel meshing with it to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the rotation of the first rotating rod and adjusting the angle of the mixing tank. The structure is simple and easy to use. Moreover, by utilizing the self-locking characteristics of the worm wheel and the worm, once the angle of the mixing tank is adjusted to the correct position, the rocker arm no longer needs to be rotated, and the position of the mixing tank can be locked, reducing the difficulty of operation for the staff.
[0020] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0021] 1. By setting a first rotating shaft and multiple second rotating shafts, as well as corresponding first and second power components, multi-shaft synchronous stirring is achieved, which significantly improves the mixing uniformity of konjac food and improves the problem of uneven material mixing and low stirring efficiency under the single-shaft stirring mode of ordinary food mixers;
[0022] 2. The design of the mounting block, sliding scraper, and compression spring on the rotating disc ensures that the scraper always fits against the inner wall of the mixing tank, effectively preventing materials from adhering to the tank wall, reducing dead corner areas, and lowering the difficulty of cleaning and maintenance costs of the equipment.
[0023] 3. The coordinated design of the worm gear, worm, and rocker arm enables precise adjustment and control of the stirring tank angle. The structure is simple and easy to use. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.
[0029] This application discloses a mixing device for konjac food production. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The mixing equipment for konjac food production includes a support frame 1, a mixing tank 2, a mixing component 3, a heating component 4, and an adjustment component 5.
[0030] Rollers 11 are installed at the bottom of the support 1, and a handle 12 is welded and fixed to one side of the support 1. The top of the mixing tank 2 is open and a cover plate 13 is provided at the opening. The cover plate 13 is used to close the opening of the mixing tank 2. For easy maintenance, the cover plate 13 is divided into three parts: a left cover 131, a middle cover 132, and a right cover 133. The middle cover 132 is fixedly installed at the opening of the mixing tank 2, and the left cover 131 and the right cover 133 are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the middle cover 132, respectively. A notch is provided on the peripheral wall at the opening of the mixing tank 2, which serves as the material inlet 14. The mixing tank 2 is vertically mounted on the support 1. Specifically, first rotating rods 15 are welded horizontally on both the left and right sides of the middle part of the peripheral wall of the mixing tank 2. The two first rotating rods 15 are coaxial, and the mixing tank 2 is rotatably connected to the support 1 around the axis of the first rotating rods 15. The support 1 is provided with an adjustment component 5 for rotating the first rotating rods 15. By cooperating with the first rotating rod 15 and the adjusting component 5, the mixing tank 2 can be tilted at a certain angle, which facilitates the loading and unloading of materials.
[0031] For example, the adjusting component 5 includes a worm gear 51, a worm 52, and a rocker arm 53. The worm 52 is rotatably connected to the bracket 1, and the rocker arm 53 is vertically fixed to the worm 52. Rotating the rocker arm 53 can drive the worm 52 to rotate. The worm gear 51 is coaxially connected to the first rotating rod 15, and the worm gear 51 meshes with the worm 52. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the mixing tank 2, the rocker arm 53 can be manually rotated to drive the worm 52 to rotate, thereby causing the worm gear 51 meshing with it to rotate synchronously, thus realizing the rotation of the first rotating rod 15 and adjusting the angle of the mixing tank 2. The structure is simple and easy to use. Moreover, utilizing the self-locking characteristic of the worm gear 51 and the worm 52, once the angle of the mixing tank 2 is adjusted to the correct position, the rocker arm 53 no longer needs to be rotated, and the position of the mixing tank 2 can be locked, reducing the difficulty of operation for the operator.
[0032] Reference Figure 2 The stirring assembly 3 includes a rotating disk 31, a first rotating shaft 32, a second rotating shaft 33, a first power component 34, and a second power component. The rotating disk 31 is rotatably connected to the middle cover 132 at the top of the stirring tank 2 around the axis of the stirring tank 2. The first rotating shaft 32 is located in the inner cavity of the stirring tank 2 and is fixed to the rotating disk 31 along the axis of the stirring tank 2. The second rotating shaft 33 is rotatably connected to the rotating disk 31. Multiple second rotating shafts 33 are evenly distributed around the axis of the stirring tank 2 and are all parallel to the first rotating shaft 32. In this application, there are three sets of second rotating shafts 33. The second power component is used to drive each second rotating shaft 33 to rotate. Both the first rotating shaft 32 and the second rotating shaft 33 are provided with stirring blades 37. In this application, the first power component 34 is a rotating motor. The rotating motor is vertically bolted to the cover plate 13, and the rotating shaft of the rotating motor is coaxially connected to the rotating disk 31. The second power component is used to drive each second rotating shaft 33 to rotate synchronously.
[0033] When the first power unit 34 drives the rotating disk 31 to rotate, the rotating disk 31 drives the first rotating shaft 32 to rotate around the axis of the mixing tank 2, thereby causing the stirring blades 37 fixed on the first rotating shaft 32 to rotate accordingly, achieving preliminary stirring of the material in the mixing tank 2. Simultaneously, since the second rotating shafts 33 are evenly distributed around the axis of the mixing tank 2 and parallel to the first rotating shaft 32, when the second power unit drives each of the second rotating shafts 33 to rotate, the second rotating shafts 33 rotate on their own axis while rotating with the rotating disk 31 around the axis of the mixing tank 2, avoiding dead zones in the stirring process, further enhancing the stirring effect, and ensuring uniform mixing of the material.
[0034] For example, the second power component includes an internal gear ring 35 and a first gear 36. The internal gear ring 35 is coaxially connected to the inner circumferential wall of the mixing tank 2, and each second rotating shaft 33 is coaxially connected to a first gear 36. The internal gear ring 35 meshes with all the first gears 36. When the second rotating shaft 33 rotates with the rotating disk 31, the first gears 36 on the second rotating shaft 33 roll along the teeth of the internal gear ring 35, thereby realizing the rotation function of the second rotating shaft 33. By sharing the same power source, the internal gear ring 35 and the first gear 36, a single rotating motor is used, saving costs.
[0035] In addition, to facilitate cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, a mounting block 6 is connected to the rotating disk 31. The length of the mounting block 6 is parallel to the axis of the mixing tank 2. A slot 61 is provided on the side of the mounting block 6 away from the axis of the mixing tank 2. The slot 61 extends vertically, and a scraper 62 is slidably engaged in the slot 61 along the radial direction of the mixing tank 2. A compression spring 63 is also provided in the slot 61. One end of the compression spring 63 is connected to the inner wall of the slot 61, and the other end is connected to the scraper 62. The compression spring 63 is in a compressed state and tends to press the scraper 62 against the inner wall of the mixing tank 2.
[0036] The combination of the slot 61 and the compression spring 63 allows the scraper 62 to press firmly against the inner wall of the mixing tank 2. As the rotating disc 31 rotates, the scraper 62 effectively cleans the material adhering to the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, preventing cross-contamination or affecting the quality of subsequent batches of products. Furthermore, the design of the compression spring 63 gives the scraper 62 a certain degree of retraction elasticity, allowing it to adapt to different shapes of the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, improving cleaning efficiency and effectiveness. The scraper 62 can slide along the slot 61, facilitating replacement and maintenance and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0037] Furthermore, refer to Figure 1 The heating assembly 4 includes a heating ring 41 with an inner cavity, which is mounted on the outer peripheral wall of the mixing tank 2. The heating ring 41 has an air inlet 42 and an air outlet 43 that communicate with the inner cavity, wherein the air inlet 42 is used to communicate with an external steam generator. When high-temperature steam is introduced into the heating ring 41 through the steam generator, the high-temperature steam in the heating ring 41 can uniformly heat the material in the mixing tank 2, thereby reducing the viscosity of the material and improving the mixing efficiency and effect.
[0038] The implementation principle of the mixing equipment for konjac food production in this embodiment is as follows: During use, the material to be mixed is fed into the mixing tank 2 through the inlet 14. Then, the rotating motor is started, driving the rotating disk 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the first rotating shaft 32 to rotate around the axis of the mixing tank 2. This causes the mixing blades 37 fixed on the first rotating shaft 32 to rotate accordingly, achieving preliminary mixing of the material in the mixing tank 2. Furthermore, while the second rotating shaft 33 rotates with the rotating disk 31 around the axis of the mixing tank 2, the meshing of the first gear 36 and the internal gear ring 35 on the second rotating shaft 33 causes the second rotating shaft 33 to both revolve around the axis of the rotating disk 31 and rotate on its own axis. This causes the second rotating shaft 33 and its mixing blades 37 to also rotate and mix, avoiding dead zones in the mixing process, further enhancing the mixing effect, and ensuring uniform mixing of the material. After the material is mixed, manually rotate the rocker arm 53 to drive the worm gear 52 to rotate, which in turn causes the worm wheel 51 meshing with it to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the rotation of the first rotating rod 15 and adjusting the angle of the mixing tank 2, which facilitates the output of material from the feed port 14 and is easy to use.
[0039] The above are all optional embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
