[0029] To make the utility model's objectives, features, and advantages more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

It should be noted that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be a component centrally located at the same time.
[0031] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0032] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an automatic flour mixing device for instant noodle processing, including a mixing chamber 1, a feeding and crushing assembly 2, a rotary drive mechanism 3, first mixing blades 41 and 42, and a discharge assembly 5;
[0033] The feeding and grinding component 2 is located at the top of the mixing chamber 1. The feeding and grinding component 2 is used to receive and grind the flour to be mixed. Before entering the mixing chamber 1, the flour is first ground and pulverized by the feeding and grinding component 2 to completely break up any lumps in the flour, so that the particles are more uniform, thereby improving the fluidity and dispersibility of the flour and avoiding the subsequent mixing effect due to flour lumps or uneven particles.
[0034] The rotary drive mechanism 3 is located at the side of the mixing chamber 1 and connected to the mixing shaft 31. The mixing shaft 31 is located inside the mixing chamber 1. The rotary drive mechanism 3 is used to drive the mixing shaft 31 to rotate. The first mixing blade 41 and the second mixing blade 42 are respectively spirally arranged along the extension direction of the mixing shaft 31. The diameter of the first mixing blade 41 is larger than the diameter of the second mixing blade 42. The first mixing blade 41 and the second mixing blade 42 are used to stir the flour in the mixing chamber 1 as the mixing shaft 31 rotates. When the rotary drive mechanism 3 drives the mixing shaft 31 to rotate, the first mixing blade 41, due to its larger diameter, can tumble and push the flour in the mixing chamber 1 over a wide range, enhancing the overall fluidity during the stirring process. The second mixing blade 42, with its smaller diameter, can compensate for the shortcomings of the first mixing blade 41 in local mixing, thereby improving the uniformity of stirring. In this way, the mixing blades with a double spiral structure can make the flour in the mixing chamber 1 be fully stirred in a spiral flow manner, achieving the dual effects of large-scale tumbling and fine mixing of the flour, improving the efficiency and uniformity of flour stirring.
[0035] The mixing chamber 1 is provided with a discharge port at the bottom, and the unloading component 5 is provided on the discharge port. The unloading component 5 is used to adjust the opening of the discharge port to flexibly control the discharge amount of material and realize the continuity and accuracy of material conveying.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the feeding and crushing assembly 2 further includes a feeding hopper 21, a reduction motor 22, a first crushing roller 23, and a second crushing roller 24. The feeding hopper 21 is connected to the mixing chamber 1. The first crushing roller 23 and the second crushing roller 24 are respectively located on both sides of the bottom of the feeding hopper 21 and connected to the reduction motor 22. The first crushing roller 23 and the second crushing roller 24 are meshed together. Flour is prone to clumping due to moisture absorption or pressure during storage and transportation. Directly entering the mixing chamber 1 will affect the uniformity of flour mixing. The reduction motor 22 can drive the first crushing roller 23 and the second crushing roller 24 to rotate. Through their relative rotation, the clumped flour is crushed and ground, thereby breaking the clumped dough into finer powder.
[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the unloading assembly 5 further includes an unloading cylinder 51, a baffle plate 52, and a push-pull cylinder 53. The unloading cylinder 51 is located at the bottom of the discharge port, and the baffle plate 52 is located inside the unloading cylinder 51. The side end of the unloading cylinder 51 is provided with a slot 510 for the baffle plate 52 to be pushed and pulled. The side wall of the unloading cylinder 51 is provided with a pulley 54, and the top of the pulley 54 slides against the baffle plate 52. The side end of the unloading cylinder 51 is provided with a mounting bracket 55, and the push-pull cylinder 53 is provided on the mounting bracket 55. The movable end of the push-pull cylinder 53 is connected to the baffle plate 52 through a connecting rod 56. After mixing is complete, the flour flows from the discharge port at the bottom of the mixing chamber 1 to the unloading cylinder 51 under the action of gravity. The push-pull cylinder 53 can drive the baffle plate 52 to slide in the slot 510, thereby adjusting the opening of the discharge port and achieving precise control of the material flow rate and discharge volume. The pulley 54 can improve the stability of the movement of the baffle plate 52, avoid the problem of obstruction or wear caused by excessive friction, ensure the smooth unloading process, and provide stable material transportation for subsequent processes.
[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, further, the stirring shaft 31 is provided with a plurality of first support rods 311 and second support rods 312 along its extension direction. The first support rods 311 are connected to the first stirring blade 41, and the second support rods 312 are connected to the second stirring blade 42. Since the stirring blades will be subjected to centrifugal force generated by high-speed motion and material resistance during rotation, if they are not fixed stably, it will lead to blade displacement, loosening or even damage, thereby affecting the stirring effect. The setting of the first support rods 311 and the second support rods 312 can improve the installation stability of the first stirring blades 41 and the second stirring blades 42 and prevent the first stirring blades 41 and the second stirring blades 42 from structural deformation or falling off.
[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mixing chamber 1 is further provided with a feeding port 10 and a flip cover 11 at the top. The feeding port 10 is equipped with a screen 12, and the flip cover 11 is foldably connected to the side of the feeding port 10. The flip cover 11 is used to close or open the feeding port 10. The feeding port 10 allows operators to directly feed materials from above the mixing chamber 1, improving feeding efficiency. The screen 12 filters out larger impurities or flour lumps. The flip cover 11 seals the feeding port 10 when not in use, preventing external dust or debris from entering the mixing chamber 1.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the mixing chamber 1 is further provided with several observation windows 13 on its side wall. The observation windows 13 are provided so that users can monitor the working status inside the mixing chamber 1 in real time.
[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, it further includes a screw conveyor 6, which is located at the bottom of the unloading assembly 5 and is used to receive and transport the stirred flour.
[0042] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
