Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of homogenizer technology, and in particular to a homogenizer for automatic feeding in cream production. Background Technology
[0002] A homogenizer is a device used to uniformly mix, refine, or disperse liquid or semi-liquid substances. It is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetic industries, primarily for liquid mixing, emulsification, refining, and dispersion processes. Cream is typically an emulsion composed of milk fat and an aqueous phase. The milk fat particles need to be refined and uniformly distributed to form a stable cream product. The homogenization process helps improve the quality, taste, and stability of cream. In the cream production process, the homogenizer plays a crucial role, mainly for homogenizing the emulsion.
[0003] Existing homogenizers rely on a single material feeding method during production, resulting in low efficiency in large-scale production. When handling viscous or highly viscous raw materials, they face problems such as material residue and cleaning difficulties. This residue can affect production efficiency and hygiene standards, and increase cleaning cycles and labor costs. Furthermore, the lack of pre-mixing of raw materials leads to uneven mixing or poor flowability, thus affecting product quality and production efficiency. Therefore, this invention proposes an automated material feeding homogenizer for butter production to solve the problems mentioned in the background. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an automatic feeding homogenizer for cream production.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A homogenizer for automatic feeding in cream production includes a homogenizer body. A mounting base is fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the homogenizer body. A raw material tank is disposed above the mounting base. A feeding pipe is fixedly installed on the upper side of the mounting base. The raw material tank is fixedly installed on the feeding pipe. An inlet is opened on the upper side of the homogenizer body. The feeding pipe is inclined, and the lower end of the feeding pipe corresponds to the upper inlet of the homogenizer body. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected inside the feeding pipe, and an auger located inside the feeding pipe is installed around the circumference of the rotating shaft.
[0007] Preferably, the outer side of the auger is in close contact with the inner wall of the feed pipe, and a spur gear is fixed to the rear end of the rotating shaft.
[0008] Preferably, a round seat is rotatably connected to the upper side of the upper end of the feeding pipe, the round seat is rotatably connected to the lower end outlet of the feeding pipe, and a through pipe is fixed to the lower side of the round seat to enter the feeding pipe.
[0009] Preferably, the circular seat is fixed with a stirring paddle in the raw material barrel, and a through groove is arranged at the lower outlet of the raw material barrel, and a corresponding through groove is arranged in the circular seat.
[0010] Preferably, a bevel gear is fixed outside the pipe at the lower side of the circular seat, and the bevel gear is in meshing connection with the spur gear at the rear end of the rotating shaft.
[0011] Preferably, a feeding pipe is connected to the rear side of the upper end of the discharging pipe, and a pump body is connected to the feeding pipe, and a control valve is arranged at the inlet end of the feeding pipe.
[0012] Preferably, a controller is arranged at the front side of the homogenizer body, and a discharging port is arranged at the lower side of one side of the homogenizer body.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the homogenizer for automatic material feeding in butter production has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The homogenizer for automatic material feeding in butter production can meet the needs of different production scales through two material feeding paths (raw material barrel and pump body feeding), and the raw material can directly flow into the homogenizer through the discharging pipe, which is suitable for homogenization of a small amount of raw material, and the raw material can also be remotely conveyed through the rear feeding pipe and the pump body, which is suitable for large-scale production. The built-in auger system can effectively convey viscous raw material, clean the inner wall of the discharging pipe, avoid material residue, and ensure long-term stable operation of the equipment.
[0015] 2. The homogenizer for automatic material feeding in butter production can ensure uniform mixing of the raw material and smooth flow into the discharging pipe through the design of the circular seat and the stirring paddle, which can improve production efficiency and product quality, reduce manual intervention, reduce material waste, and improve the automation level of the production line.
