[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4The flour milling unit comprises a hopper feeder 10, a grain cleaning machine 20, a clean grain storage machine 30, a flour mill 40 and a powder lifting and screening machine 50 which are sequentially connected, wherein the hopper feeder 10 is used for feeding the mixed raw wheat to the grain cleaning machine 20, the grain cleaning machine 20 is used for removing the impurities from the mixed raw wheat and sending the clean grain to the clean grain storage machine 30, the powder lifting and screening machine 50 is provided with a powder lifting channel 51, a powder discharging channel 52 and a bran discharging channel 53, and the powder lifting and screening machine 50 is provided with a hopper 60 below the bran discharging channel 53, the hopper 60 is used for receiving the bran discharged from the bran discharging channel 53, the clean grain storage machine 30 is used for sending the clean grain to the hopper 60, the flour mill 40 is connected with the hopper 60 through a lifting pipe 41, and the discharge port of the flour mill 40 is connected with the powder lifting channel 51, and the powder discharging channel 52 is provided with a bag clamping device 521.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the flour milling unit directly pours the mixed raw wheat into the hopper 60 of the hopper feeder 10, feeds the mixed raw wheat into the grain cleaning machine 20 through the hopper feeder 10, removes the impurities from the mixed raw wheat and then enters the clean grain storage machine 30, continuously and uniformly sends the clean grain to the hopper 60 through the clean grain storage machine 30, sends the clean grain in the hopper 60 into the flour mill 40 through the lifting pipe 41 for processing, the powder produced after grinding enters the powder lifting and screening machine 50 through the powder lifting channel 51 for screening, the screened flour is discharged into the packaging bag clamped on the bag clamping device 521 through the powder discharging channel 52, and the bran directly falls into the hopper 60 and then enters the flour mill 40 through the lifting pipe 41 for secondary grinding, so that the mixed raw wheat is repeatedly ground for several times between the hopper 60, the flour mill 40 and the powder lifting and screening machine 50, the number of the flour mill 40 can be reduced, manual operation space is not required between the flour mill 40 and the powder lifting and screening machine 50, the overall layout compactness of the equipment is improved, the hopper 60 is integrated below the powder lifting and screening machine 50, the clean grain can be fed to the flour mill 40, the bran discharged from the bran discharging channel 53 can be directly received and then returned to the flour mill 40 for secondary grinding, the overall structure compactness of the machine is further improved, the installation layout space is reduced, and the market promotion and application are facilitated.

[0024] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 4 The hopper 60 is provided with a partition plate 61, the partition plate 61 divides the internal space of the hopper 60 into a clean grain cavity 601 and a bran cavity 602, the cavity bottoms of the clean grain cavity 601 and the bran cavity 602 are provided with discharge augers 62, the two discharge augers 62 are connected with the lifting pipe 41, the clean grain storage machine 30 is connected with the clean grain cavity 601, and the bran discharging channel 53 is connected with the bran cavity 602.

[0025] The interior space of the hopper 60 is divided into a clean grain chamber 601 and a bran chamber 602 by the partition 61. In the flour processing, the clean grain chamber 601 is firstly continuously fed with clean grain by the clean grain storage machine 30, and then the clean grain is transported to the lifting pipe 41 by the discharge auger 62 at the bottom of the clean grain chamber 601 and fed into the flour mill 40 through the lifting pipe 41 for grinding. The ground flour is transported to the lifting and screening machine 50 through the lifting flour channel 51 for screening. The screened flour is fed into the flour outlet channel 52 and finally falls into the packaging bag clamped by the bag holder 521, while the coarse flour and bran that do not meet the required quality fall into the bran chamber 602 through the bran outlet channel 53. When the material level in the bran chamber 602 is high enough, the feeding of the clean grain into the clean grain chamber 601 is stopped, and the discharge auger 62 at the bottom of the bran chamber 602 is opened to return the bran to the flour mill 40 through the lifting pipe 41 for secondary grinding. The bran screened after the secondary grinding can be fed into the flour mill 40 again for three or more times of grinding, so as to ensure the final flour yield. When the material level in the bran chamber 602 decreases to the bottom, the clean grain is fed into the clean grain chamber 601 again. The bran is prevented from mixing with the clean grain by the chamber division, so as to ensure the processing efficiency.

[0026] As a specific embodiment of the hopper 60, please refer to Figure 4 The side wall of the hopper 60 is fixedly connected with a bran discharge pipe 63 penetrating into the bran chamber 602, and the bran discharge pipe 63 corresponds to the outlet position of the bran outlet channel 53. The bran chamber 602 is provided with a movable shutter 64, which has a first state of shielding the bran discharge pipe 63 and a second state of avoiding the bran discharge pipe 63.

[0027] The bran is discharged outward through the bran discharge pipe 63. Specifically, when the bran needs to be returned to the flour mill 40 for regrinding, the movable shutter 64 is shielded to avoid the bran discharged from the bran outlet channel 53 from falling into the bran discharge pipe 63. When the bran is ground for the target number of times, the movable shutter 64 is switched to the second state of avoiding the bran discharge pipe 63, so that the bran discharged from the bran outlet channel 53 directly falls into the bran discharge pipe 63 and is discharged from the hopper 60.

[0028] Further, please refer to Figure 4 The operating rod 65 is slidably arranged above the partition 61 of the hopper 60, and the operating rod 65 is connected with the guide plate 66 and the movable shutter 64. When the operating rod 65 drives the movable shutter 64 to move below the bran outlet channel 53, the first state is formed, and when the operating rod 65 drives the guide plate 66 to move below the bran outlet channel 53, the second state is formed. The guide plate 66 and the movable shutter 64 are driven to move by the axial sliding of the operating rod 65, so as to switch the first state and the second state, which is simple, compact and convenient to operate.

[0029] It should be noted that, asFigure 4 As shown, the two ends of the operating rod 65 are respectively rotationally connected with the two opposite sidewalls of the hopper 60, for driving the guide plate 66 and the movable shutter 64 to swing to form an inclined state for guiding the material to one of the bran chamber 602 and the clean grain chamber 601. The operating rod 65 has an axial sliding degree of freedom and a rotating degree of freedom, which can be achieved by forming a slidable and rotatable connection between the operating rod 65 and the perforations on the sidewall of the hopper 60. The rotation of the operating rod 65 drives the guide plate 66 and the movable shutter 64 to swing, so that the guide plate 66 or the movable shutter 64 can selectively guide the bran discharged from the bran discharge channel 53 into the bran chamber 602 or the clean grain chamber 601. The purpose of this is to separately guide the bran produced by different grinding times into the bran chamber 602 and the clean grain chamber 601 when the bran needs to be returned to the flour mill 40 for grinding multiple times. For example, the bran discharged after the first grinding of the clean grain falls into the bran chamber 602. Then, the guide plate 66 and the movable shutter 64 are swung to an inclined state toward the clean grain chamber 601, so that the second-grinding bran falls into the clean grain chamber 601. After the bran in the bran chamber 602 is completely ground for the second time, the operating rod 65 is rotated again to make the guide plate 66 and the movable shutter 64 incline toward the bran chamber 602, thereby guiding the third-grinding bran to the bran chamber 602. In this way, the bran produced by different grinding times can be collected and distinguished, which is beneficial to improving the quality of the final flour.

[0030] In some possible implementation manners, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The flour sifting machine 50 is provided with a flour discharge shaker 54, the flour discharge shaker 54 is connected with the flour discharge channel 52, and is connected with the bag receiving device 521 through the flour discharge air lock 522. The flour mill 40 is provided with a feeding air lock 42, and the feeding air lock 42 is connected with a feeding shaker 43 above. The feeding shaker 43 is connected with the material lifting pipe 41.

[0031] The shaker is also called a cyclone separator, which is a device for separating solid particles in gas flow by centrifugal force. The air lock is also called a star-shaped discharger, which is suitable for powdery materials and granular materials. The flour discharge shaker 54 can make the flour in the flour discharge channel 52 fall into the flour discharge air lock 522, and then enter the packaging bag. The clean grain or bran at the bottom of the hopper 60 can enter the flour mill 40 through the material lifting pipe 41 under the power of the feeding shaker 43. Therefore, the material transfer between the hopper 60 and the flour mill 40 is realized by using gas power, which can improve the compactness of the structure.

[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 2As shown, the first dust removal fan 55 is arranged on the powder screening machine 50, and is connected with the powder outlet chute 54 through a first air pipe 551, and is connected with the feeding chute 43 through a second air pipe 552. Dust is generated during the powder outlet and the feeding of the flour mill 40. The first dust removal fan 55 is connected with the powder outlet chute 54 and the feeding chute 43 simultaneously, so that the production dust can be inhibited, and the air quality in the workshop is purified.

[0033] Specifically, referring to Figs. 1 and 2, Figure 1 and Figure 2 the suction side of the first dust removal fan 55 is provided with an air bellow 553, and the first air pipe 551 and the second air pipe 552 are communicated with the air bellow 553; and the exhaust side of the dust removal fan is connected with a first dust collector 555 through a third air pipe 554. The dust at the powder outlet and the feeding is controlled simultaneously by the first dust removal fan 55 through the air bellow 553 and the two air pipes, and the dust is filtered and purified by the first dust collector 555, so that the production environment and the air are clean.

[0034] It should be noted that, referring to Figs. 1 and 2, Figure 1 the second dust removal fan 21 is arranged on the grain cleaning machine 20, and is connected with a second dust collector 23 through a fourth air pipe 22. Because a large amount of dust particles and chaff are often contained in the mixed raw wheat, the second dust collector 23 is arranged on the grain cleaning machine 20, and the dirty air generated during the screening of the mixed raw wheat is sucked and exhausted to the second dust collector 23 by the second dust removal fan 21, so that the purification effect is improved, the air pollution outside is avoided, and the cleanliness of the cleaned wheat is improved, so that the flour quality is ensured.

[0035] It should be understood that, referring to Figs. 1 and 2, Figure 1 and Figure 2 the above-mentioned bucket feeder 10 is connected with the grain cleaning machine 20 through a first vertical auger 70, the grain cleaning machine 20 is connected with the cleaned wheat storage machine 30 through a second vertical auger 80, and the cleaned wheat storage machine 30 is connected with the hopper 60 through a third vertical auger 90. The vertical auger can be understood as a vertical spiral auger for conveying materials from bottom to top. The bottom of the bucket feeder 10 is discharged and conveyed upward to the top of the grain cleaning machine 20 through the first vertical auger 70. The cleaned wheat obtained by the screening of the mixed raw wheat in the grain cleaning machine 20 falls to the bottom and enters the second vertical auger 80, and is then conveyed upward by the second vertical auger 80 and discharged into the cleaned wheat storage machine 30 from the top of the cleaned wheat storage machine 30. The cleaned wheat in the cleaned wheat storage machine 30 can fall to the third vertical auger 90 by gravity, so that the cleaned wheat is conveyed to the hopper 60 by the third vertical auger 90. In this way, the feeding and discharging modes of each process are all downward discharging and upward feeding, so that the compactness of the overall structure layout is improved, and the installation space is reduced.

[0036] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, and improvement within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
