Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dairy additive pulverization technology, and in particular to a pulverization and conveying mechanism for dairy additives. Background Technology

[0002] Dairy additives (such as whey protein powder, stabilizers, emulsifiers, etc.) mostly exist in lumps, coarse particles, or agglomerates. Their particle size uniformity directly affects their solubility and dispersion in dairy products, product stability, and taste. Therefore, they need to be crushed before being put into production, which is a key link in dairy processing to ensure product quality.

[0003] However, existing dairy additive crushing and conveying equipment has significant shortcomings: Firstly, the crushing process often relies on a single crushing mechanism, lacking an effective mechanism for recycling and reprocessing substandard coarse particles. Furthermore, crushed material tends to accumulate on the screening components, resulting in some particles being incompletely crushed due to insufficient contact with the crushing mechanism, leading to a mixture of qualified powder and coarse particles, affecting the quality of subsequent products. Secondly, the crushing and conveying processes are often independent, with poor equipment integration, resulting in material residue and conveying losses. It is difficult to simultaneously meet the core requirements of crushing precision, production continuity, and the hygiene and efficiency demands of dairy processing. Therefore, in response to these issues, there is an urgent need to develop... A crushing and conveying mechanism for dairy additives is proposed. This mechanism achieves efficient crushing of additives through a crushing mechanism, combined with the vibration of a screen driven by an ultrasonic vibrator on an annular water storage shell. This not only accurately screens qualified particle size materials but also prevents screen clogging, improving screening efficiency and accuracy. The conveying device has a dual function: it can extract unqualified materials from the screen and re-convey them to the crushing mechanism for secondary crushing, enhancing the crushing effect. It can also convey qualified materials after crushing, achieving integrated crushing and conveying. This mechanism effectively solves the problems of incomplete crushing and screen clogging in traditional equipment, overcoming the shortcomings of current practical applications and meeting current needs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a crushing and conveying mechanism for dairy additives to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A pulverizing and conveying mechanism for dairy additives includes a pulverizing chamber, an annular water storage shell, a pulverizing mechanism, a conveying device, and a screen. The annular water storage shell is fixed in the middle of the pulverizing chamber. An ultrasonic vibrator is fixed to one side of the annular water storage shell, and the vibrating head of the ultrasonic vibrator is inserted into the annular water storage shell. A support ring is fixed inside the annular water storage shell. The screen is detachably fixed to the support ring by screws. A funnel is fixed to the lower side of the support ring, and a one-way valve is installed at the bottom of the funnel. The pulverizing mechanism is installed on the top of the pulverizing chamber and extends into its interior. The conveying device includes: a powder conveying pump, a No. 1 three-way connector, a No. 2 three-way connector, a first suction pipe, a first solenoid valve, a second suction pipe, a second solenoid valve, and a first outlet... The system includes a feed pipe, a third solenoid valve, a second discharge pipe, and a fourth solenoid valve. The inlet end of the powder conveying pump is connected to a No. 1 tee connector, and the outlet end of the powder conveying pump is connected to a No. 2 tee connector. One end of the first suction pipe is connected to the bottom of the crushing box, and the other end is connected to the No. 1 tee connector. A first solenoid valve is installed on the first suction pipe. One end of the second suction pipe is connected to the No. 1 tee connector, and the other end is inserted into the upper side of the screen inside the crushing box. A second solenoid valve is installed on the second suction pipe. One end of the first discharge pipe is connected to the No. 2 tee connector, and the other end is inserted into the upper part of the inside of the crushing box. A third solenoid valve is installed on the first discharge pipe. The second discharge pipe is connected to the No. 2 tee connector, and a fourth solenoid valve is installed on the second discharge pipe.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the crushing box is provided with a feed inlet, and an end cap is detachably installed on the feed inlet.

[0008] Preferably, the upper half of the crushing chamber is made of a transparent material.

[0009] Preferably, the crushing mechanism includes a drive motor and a crushing roller, wherein the drive motor is fixed to the top of the crushing box, and the output shaft of the drive motor is fixed to the crushing roller via a coupling.

[0010] Preferably, the screen is a 100-mesh stainless steel mesh.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In use, the crushing and conveying mechanism for this dairy additive involves adding material through the feed inlet, then closing the end cover. The drive motor is started to rotate the crushing roller to crush the material. Simultaneously, an ultrasonic vibrator vibrates the water inside the annular water storage tank. The annular water storage tank transmits the vibration to the screen and funnel, allowing qualified particles to pass through the screen and funnel and fall into the lower part of the crushing chamber. Unqualified particles remain on the screen. When a large amount of unqualified particles accumulate on the screen, the first solenoid valve is activated. The second discharge is closed, while the second and third solenoid valves are opened. The powder conveying pump is started to draw in materials that are not up to the required size from the screen through the second suction pipe. These materials then fall through the first discharge pipe and are further crushed by the crushing mechanism during their descent, thus improving the crushing effect. After complete crushing, the first and second solenoid valves are opened, while the second and third solenoid valves are closed. The powder conveying pump is started to draw in materials from the bottom of the crushing chamber through the first suction pipe and then conveyed out through the second discharge. In summary, this invention achieves efficient crushing of additives through a crushing mechanism. Combined with the screen vibration driven by the ultrasonic vibrator on the annular water storage shell, it can accurately screen materials of qualified particle size while preventing screen blockage, thus improving screening efficiency and accuracy. The conveying device has a dual function: it can draw back unqualified materials from the screen and re-convey them to the crushing mechanism for secondary crushing, enhancing the crushing effect. It can also convey qualified materials out after crushing, achieving integrated crushing and conveying, effectively solving the problems of incomplete crushing and screen blockage in traditional equipment.

One end of the first suction pipe 404 is connected to the bottom of the crushing box 1, and the other end is connected to the No. 1 tee connector 402. The first solenoid valve is installed on the first suction pipe 404. 405, one end of the second suction pipe 406 is connected to the first three-way connector 402, and the other end is inserted into the upper side of the screen 5 inside the crushing box 1. A second solenoid valve 407 is installed on the second suction pipe 406. One end of the first discharge pipe 408 is connected to the second three-way connector 403, and the other end is inserted into the upper part of the inside of the crushing box 1. A third solenoid valve 409 is installed on the first discharge pipe 408. The second discharge 410 is connected to the second three-way connector 403. A fourth solenoid valve 411 is installed on the second discharge 410. The second discharge 410 is used to transport the crushed material away.

[0022] The conveying device 4 has two functions during use: First, it has an auxiliary crushing function. When a large amount of material with unqualified particle size accumulates on the screen 5, the first solenoid valve 405 and the second discharge 410 are closed, and the second solenoid valve 407 and the third solenoid valve 409 are opened. The powder conveying pump 401 is started to suck up the material.

The drive motor 301 is started, driving the crushing roller 302 to rotate and crush the material. Simultaneously, the ultrasonic vibrator 201 vibrates the water inside the annular water storage tank 2. The annular water storage tank 2 transmits the vibration to the screen 5 and the funnel 202, allowing qualified particles to pass through the screen 5 and the funnel 202 and fall into the lower part of the crushing chamber 1. Unqualified particles remain on the screen 5. When a large amount of unqualified particles accumulate on the screen 5, the first solenoid valve 405 and the second discharge valve 410 are closed.
