Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of rice humidification equipment, specifically a rice humidification device for rice processing. Background Technology
[0002] Rice, also known as paddy rice, is a food made from paddy rice through processes such as cleaning, hulling, milling, and finishing. Rice is a staple food for people in most parts of China. Before processing, rice needs to be humidified using rice humidification equipment.
[0003] Patent CN221430240U discloses a rice humidification device for rice processing. This device uses an external controller to start a motor and a liquid pump. The liquid pump transports liquid from a water tank to a delivery pipe via a suction pipe and an outlet pipe. The delivery pipe then transports the liquid to an atomizing pipe via a conduit. The atomizing pipe humidifies the rice inside the tank through atomizing nozzles. A synchronous motor drives a stirring blade and a stirring paddle to rotate via a stirring shaft. The stirring blade and paddle mix and stir the rice, ensuring uniform humidification and preventing uneven humidification, thus addressing the problem of uneven humidification in existing rice humidification devices. However, the stirring blade and paddle in this device can only agitate a single layer of rice, failing to move the bottom layer to the top, resulting in uneven humidification. Therefore, there is room for improvement in this humidification device. Utility Model Content

Under the action of the spring 212 on the left side of the retaining plate 208, the retaining rod 210 on the right side of the control plate 211 is inserted into the retaining hole 209 on the right side of the inlet and outlet 205.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one aspect of this embodiment, the bottom of the placement bucket 203 is fixedly connected to an adjustment mechanism 5 for rotating the placement bucket 203 to facilitate the removal of the humidified rice. The adjustment mechanism 5 includes a lower hinge frame 501 and an upper hinge frame 503. The bottom of the lower hinge frame 501 is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the base plate 1. An electric push rod 502 is hinged to the lower hinge frame 501. The top of the upper hinge frame 503 is fixedly connected to the lower front side of the placement bucket 203. The top of the electric push rod 502 is hinged to the bottom of the upper hinge frame 503. When the electric push rod 502 hinged to the lower hinge frame 501 shortens, it causes the upper hinge frame 503 to move downward. The downward movement of the upper hinge frame 503 causes the placement bucket 203 to rotate, thereby reducing the height of the inlet and outlet 205.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6In one aspect of this embodiment, the humidification mechanism 4 includes a water storage tank 401 and a water pump 402. The bottom of the water storage tank 401 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the base plate 1. The bottom of the water pump 402 is fixedly connected to the top front side of the water storage tank 401. A water suction pipe 403 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the water pump 402. The water suction pipe 403 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the water storage tank 401. One end of the water suction pipe 403 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the water pump 402. A delivery pipe 404 is fixedly connected to the front side of the water pump 402. An inner cavity 405 is opened inside the arc-shaped plate 207. The upper part of the inner wall of the inner cavity 405 is fixedly connected to...

The humidifying water is evenly sprayed onto the surface of the rice through the spray head 408 at the bottom of the branch pipe 407.
[0038] All electrical devices in this plan are powered by an external power source.
[0039] Working principle: During use, the electric actuator 502 hinged to the lower hinge frame 501 shortens, causing the upper hinge frame 503 to move downwards. The downward movement of the upper hinge frame 503 causes the placement bucket 203 to rotate, lowering the height of the inlet and outlet 205. After rice is poured into the placement bucket 203 through the inlet and outlet 205, which is rotatably connected to the annular groove 204 and the ring 202 at the top of the support rod 201, the arc plate 207 in the arc cavity 206 moves downwards until the bottom of the arc plate 207 is in contact with the bottom of the inlet and outlet 205. Under the action of the spring 212 on the left side of the retaining plate 208, the retaining rod 210 on the right side of the control plate 211 inserts into the opening on the right side of the inlet and outlet 205. Inside the fixed hole 209, the electric push rod 502, which is hinged to the lower hinge frame 501, extends and drives the upper hinge frame 503 to move upward. At the same time, it drives the placement bucket 203 to rotate and drives the inlet and outlet 205 to move upward to a suitable height. The output shaft of the motor 302 connected to the fixed plate 301 rotates and drives the rotating shaft 303 to rotate. The rotating shaft 303 rotates and drives the flipping plate 304 to rotate, flipping the rice at the bottom of the placement bucket 203 to the upper layer. The water pump 402 starts and transports the water in the water storage tank 401 through the water pumping pipe 403 to the main pipe 406 in the inner cavity 405 through the delivery pipe 404. The humidifying water is sprayed evenly onto the surface of the rice through the spray head 408 at the bottom of the branch pipe 407.
