TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to sauce processing technical field especially sauce grinding device with cleaning structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of sauce making, the unique flavor and quality of sauce highly depend on the fine processing of spices contained therein. As the core element constituting the rich taste and unique aroma of sauce, spices usually need to be ground into fine powder before being blended into sauce. Different types of sauce are often composed of significantly differentiated spice components. These spices differ significantly in type, characteristics, texture and taste intensity. When using the same grinding device to grind different components of spices, the residues of the former spices will inevitably mix into the subsequently ground spices, resulting in cross-contamination of spice components, which will seriously damage the pure and unique flavor that each type of sauce should have, making the finally produced sauce deviate from the expected standard in taste and aroma, and failing to meet the strict requirements of consumers for the accuracy and consistency of specific sauce flavor. At the same time, the accumulation of residual spices inside the grinding device not only interferes with the accuracy of subsequent grinding operations and affects the uniformity of grinding particle size, but also may cause problems such as mold growth and caking in a humid environment, breeding harmful microorganisms and posing a potential threat to food safety. Moreover, as the accumulation and solidification of spice residues increase, the difficulty of cleaning them will increase exponentially, and traditional simple flushing or wiping methods cannot completely remove these stubborn residues, often requiring a large amount of manual labor and cleaning solvents, significantly increasing production costs and equipment maintenance complexity.
[0003] According to the search, the Chinese utility model patent with the authorization announcement No. CN221016453U discloses a sauce grinding mechanism. The grinding mechanism sequentially includes a base, a grinding box, a feeding box from bottom to top, and the grinding box and the feeding box are detachable. A rotating shaft is provided upward in the central axis position of the base. A connecting seat is provided below the rotating shaft. A crushing cylinder is penetrated through the top of the rotating shaft and installed on the connecting seat. The upper end of the crushing cylinder is a circular truncated cone structure. The lower end of the feeding box corresponds to the position of the upper end of the crushing cylinder and is a slope surface. A driving mechanism for driving the connecting seat to rotate is further provided on the base. The device serves as a grinding mechanism for grinding sauce. When grinding raw materials, the connecting seat is first driven to rotate by the driving mechanism, and then the rotating shaft drives the crushing cylinder to rotate. A certain amount of raw materials is then poured into the feeding box. The raw materials are extruded and ground into fine particles by the crushing cylinder and the grinding wall, and then flow out along the side wall of the crushing cylinder. When the device needs to be cleaned, the feeding box and the crushing cylinder are sequentially disassembled, so that the crushing cylinder and the inside of the device can be thoroughly cleaned.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned device at least has the following technical defects:
[0005] 1. Although the lower end of the feed box in the above device is designed as a slope corresponding to the upper end of the grinding cylinder, which helps the material to enter the grinding cylinder better, this single feed box structure cannot be well adapted to sauce raw materials with different states (such as large differences in particle size, humidity, viscosity, etc.). For example, for raw materials with high viscosity, blockage may occur on the slope or feed inlet, and for raw materials with large and uneven particles, it may not be possible to guarantee a uniform and stable feeding speed, thus affecting the uniformity and efficiency of grinding.
[0006] 2. The above-mentioned device has a relatively complex structure and some areas that are difficult to reach and clean, such as between the base and the connecting seat, and between the arc plate and the drive shaft. These areas are prone to becoming hygiene dead corners. If these hygiene dead corners are not effectively cleaned during daily production and cleaning, bacteria will grow, endangering food safety and failing to meet the strict hygiene and quality requirements of modern food processing.
