Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food reaction vessel technology, specifically a continuous food reaction vessel. Background Technology
[0002] A continuous food reactor is a specialized piece of equipment used in food production. It can carry out chemical reactions under high temperature, high pressure, and an inert atmosphere. It can continuously add raw materials into the reactor and continuously discharge reaction products, making it suitable for large-scale production and industrial applications. It is used to process, improve, and flavor food raw materials. Through functions such as heating, evaporation, cooling, and low-to-high-speed mixing, the food reactor realizes various chemical reactions in the food processing process. It is widely used in the food processing industry, as it can improve the texture, taste, and nutritional value of food, thereby increasing product quality and yield.
[0003] Food reaction vessels are used in food processing. Although traditional food reaction vessels have mixing capabilities, they still have some shortcomings. For example, the structure of their mixing components is relatively fixed, making it difficult to disassemble and replace them when corrosion or damage occurs after long-term use. This not only makes it difficult to guarantee the mixing effect in the later stages but also increases the difficulty of later maintenance. Furthermore, their cleaning ability is poor, making it difficult to clean food raw materials adhering to the inner wall of the vessel, thus increasing the subsequent cleaning burden. In addition, their discharge effect is poor, which can easily cause blockages when discharging food raw materials, thereby affecting the overall processing efficiency. Therefore, a continuous food reaction vessel is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a continuous food reaction vessel with a flexible mixing component structure. This allows for disassembly and replacement when corrosion or damage occurs during long-term use, ensuring consistent mixing performance and reducing maintenance difficulty. Furthermore, its superior cleaning ability effectively removes food materials adhering to the vessel's inner wall, reducing subsequent cleaning burden. Additionally, its efficient discharge process minimizes blockages during food material discharge, thus maintaining overall processing efficiency and addressing the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A continuous food reaction vessel includes a vessel body, a vessel lid of matching specifications on the top of the vessel body, the vessel body and the vessel lid being connected by a threaded bolt, a feeding hopper connected to the top front side of the vessel lid, a first motor on the top of the vessel body, a drive shaft fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, the drive shaft passing through the vessel lid and extending to the bottom of the vessel lid, a mixing component and a cleaning component on the drive shaft, a discharge trough connected to the center of the bottom of the vessel body, an anti-clogging component in the discharge trough and a discharge valve connected to the bottom of the discharge trough.

The mixing support plate has a plurality of pressure-reducing holes arranged at equal intervals. A connecting bolt passes through the center of the connecting support. The drive shaft has a plurality of connecting screw holes arranged symmetrically and longitudinally at equal intervals. The connecting screw holes and the connecting bolts are positioned correspondingly and matched in specifications.
[0008] Preferably, the cleaning assembly includes a fixed support fixedly connected to the drive shaft, with cleaning support rods fixedly connected to both ends of the fixed support, a cleaning support plate fixedly connected to the end of the cleaning support rod away from the fixed support, and a cleaning scraper that fits against the inner wall of the vessel on the side of the cleaning support plate away from the cleaning support rod.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] In this invention, the vessel body provides a reaction space for food raw materials, the vessel lid seals the vessel body, and the mounting bolts provide a good connection between the lid and the vessel body. Therefore, the lid's structural stability is ensured when sealing the vessel body, and it can be easily disassembled for maintenance of the mixing and cleaning components.

The mixing component mixes and stirs the food raw materials to achieve various chemical reactions during food processing. The reaction and mixing components have a flexible structure, allowing for disassembly and replacement in case of corrosion or damage during long-term use. This not only ensures the mixing effect but also reduces maintenance difficulty. The cleaning components provide excellent cleaning capabilities, effectively removing food ingredients adhering to the inner wall of the reactor, thus reducing subsequent cleaning burden. The discharge chute provides discharge capacity for food ingredients via a discharge valve, and the anti-clogging components ensure good anti-clogging capabilities, guaranteeing good discharge performance. Therefore, it is less likely to cause blockages when discharging food ingredients, thus not affecting overall processing efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The mixing component 7 includes a connecting support 701 that matches the specifications of the drive shaft 6 and is symmetrically arranged. A mixing support plate 702 is symmetrically and fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting support 701. Several pressure-reducing holes 703 are evenly spaced and pass through the mixing support plate 702. A connecting bolt 704 passes through the center of the connecting support 701. Several connecting screw holes 705 are symmetrically and longitudinally evenly spaced on the drive shaft 6. The connecting screw holes 705 and the connecting bolts 704 are corresponding in position and matched in specifications. The mixing component 7 can mix and stir food raw materials to achieve various chemical reactions in the food processing process. Furthermore, the structure of the mixing component 7 is relatively flexible, allowing for disassembly and replacement in case of corrosion or damage during long-term use. This not only ensures the mixing effect in the later stages but also reduces the difficulty of later maintenance. The cleaning component 8 includes a fixed support 801 that is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 6. A cleaning support rod 802 is symmetrically and fixedly connected to both ends of the fixed support 801. A cleaning support rod 802 is fixed at the end of the cleaning support rod 802 away from the fixed support 801. A cleaning support plate 803 is fixedly connected. On the side of the cleaning support plate 803 away from the cleaning support rod 802, a cleaning scraper 804 is provided that fits against the inner wall of the vessel body 1. Multiple sets of mounting blocks 805 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the cleaning scraper 804 near the cleaning support plate 803. Mounting slots 806, equal in number, corresponding in position, and matching in size to the mounting blocks 805, are provided on the side wall of the cleaning support plate 803 near the cleaning scraper 804. The cleaning assembly 8 provides excellent cleaning capability, thus effectively cleaning substances adhering to the inside of the vessel body 1. The food raw materials on the wall are cleaned, which will reduce the subsequent cleaning burden; the anti-blocking component 10 includes a second motor 1001 fixedly connected to the rear wall of the discharge trough 9. The output end of the second motor 1001 extends into the discharge trough 9 and several anti-blocking blades 1002 are arranged at equal intervals and fixedly connected thereon. The anti-blocking component 10 can provide good anti-blocking capability for the discharge trough 9 to ensure good discharge effect of the discharge trough 9. Therefore, it is not easy to cause blockage when discharging food raw materials, so as not to affect the overall processing efficiency.
[0027] Workflow: First, power on all electrical appliances and connect them to external controllers. The vessel body 1 provides reaction space for the food raw materials. The vessel lid 2 seals the vessel body 1. Mounting bolts 3 provide a good connection between the lid 2 and the vessel body 1, ensuring the structural stability of the lid 2 when it seals the vessel body 1. Furthermore, the lid 2 can be easily disassembled when maintenance of the mixing component 7 and cleaning component 8 is required. The feeding hopper 4 guides the food raw materials into the vessel body 1. The first motor 5 drives the transmission shaft 6 to rotate, thereby rotating the mixing component 7 and cleaning component 8. The mixing support plate 702 in the mixing component 7... It can mix and stir food raw materials to achieve various chemical reactions in food processing. The mixing component 7 has a flexible structure, allowing for disassembly and replacement in case of corrosion or damage during long-term use. This not only ensures the mixing effect but also reduces maintenance difficulty. During installation, the two connecting supports 701 are symmetrically placed on both sides of the drive shaft 6 and brought close together. Then, the holes of the connecting bolts 704 on the connecting supports 701 are aligned with the corresponding connecting screw holes 705 on the drive shaft 6. Finally, the connecting bolts 704 are screwed into the connecting screw holes 705. Disassembly and maintenance follow the same procedure. (The pressure relief hole...) The 703 setting reduces the rotational resistance of the mixing support plate 702 during the mixing process. The cleaning component 8 provides good cleaning capability, thus cleaning food ingredients adhering to the inner wall of the vessel 1, thereby reducing the subsequent cleaning burden. When the drive shaft 6 rotates, it drives the fixed support 801 and its cleaning support rod 802 to rotate, which in turn drives the cleaning support plate 803 and its cleaning scraper 804 to rotate. Finally, the inner wall of the vessel 1 is scraped and cleaned by the contact between the cleaning scraper 804 and the inner wall of the vessel 1. Because the installation structure of the cleaning scraper 804 is flexible, it can prevent the cleaning scraper 804 from becoming severely worn and affecting the process. The cleaning scraper 804 can be replaced in time during cleaning to ensure its installation effect. When installing the cleaning scraper 804, first place the cleaning scraper 804 on one side of the cleaning support plate 803, and then insert the mounting clips 805 on it into the corresponding mounting slots 806 to lock them in place. The discharge trough 9 can provide discharge capacity for food raw materials through the discharge valve 11. The second motor 1001 in the anti-blocking component 10 will drive the anti-blocking blade 1002 on it to rotate through the output end, providing good flow to the discharge trough 9 to ensure good discharge effect. Therefore, it is not easy to cause blockage when discharging food raw materials, so as not to affect the overall processing efficiency.
