Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gel gummy processing technology, and in particular to a stirring and dissolving device for gel gummy processing. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of the food industry, gummy candies, as a popular confectionery product, are widely used in various snack foods. The production process of gummy candies typically includes multiple steps such as stirring, dissolving, blending, and cooling of raw materials. Among these, the control of the stirring and dissolving process directly affects the quality of the final product and production efficiency. In existing technologies, stirring and dissolving equipment mainly uses mechanical stirring, employing a high-speed rotating stirrer to mix and heat raw materials such as syrup, gelatin, and fruit juice until dissolved. During this process, the design of the stirring and dissolving equipment needs to ensure thorough mixing of raw materials, precise temperature control, and reasonable adjustment of dissolving time to avoid material separation or uneven heating, thereby ensuring the taste and appearance of the gummy candies.
[0003] Existing stirring and dissolving equipment still has some problems. Due to poor synchronization of heating and stirring, some raw materials may be overheated or have excessive local temperature differences, resulting in unstable syrup quality or even gelatinization, which affects the taste and stability of the final product. In order to address this technical problem, this application proposes a stirring and dissolving equipment for processing gel gummies. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a stirring and dissolving device for processing gel gummies. During the stirring process, the scraper on the connecting frame will promptly scrape off the raw materials adhering to the inner wall of the dissolving chamber, preventing the raw materials from burning due to overheating. The starting motor drives the drive gear to rotate, which in turn causes the bidirectional threaded rod to rotate. The adjusting component moves on it and pushes the connecting component through the transmission rod, so that the cleaning plate cleans the mixed raw materials adhering to the surface of the stirring component.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A stirring and dissolving device for processing gel gummies includes a dissolving chamber. Inside the dissolving chamber, a connecting frame is connected via a stirring assembly. A bidirectional threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the connecting frame. A cleaning plate is connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod via an adjusting assembly. A gear set is provided at the top of the bidirectional threaded rod. A scraper is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting frame and contacts the inner wall of the dissolving chamber. A discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the dissolving chamber.
[0007] Furthermore, the stirring assembly includes a rotating shaft rotatably connected inside the dissolving chamber, a stirring element fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the other end of the stirring element fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting frame.
[0008] Furthermore, a motor is installed at the top of the dissolving chamber, and the drive end of the motor is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft.
[0009] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment member threadedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod, a transmission rod rotatably connected to the outer wall of the adjustment member, a connector rotatably connected to the other end of the transmission rod, and the connector fixedly connected to the surface of the cleaning plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the gear set includes a driving gear rotatably connected inside the connecting frame, a driven gear meshing with the outer wall of the driving gear, and the driven gear being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod.
[0011] Furthermore, a motor is provided on the top of the connecting frame, and the motor drive end is fixedly connected to the top of the drive gear.
[0012] Furthermore, a support column is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dissolution chamber.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. In this utility model, during the stirring process, the motor drives the rotating shaft and stirring components to rotate, and the raw materials are thoroughly stirred and mixed. At the same time, the scraper on the connecting frame will scrape off the raw materials adhering to the wall of the dissolving chamber in time, avoiding the raw materials from burning due to overheating. This ensures the quality of the gummy candy raw materials from the source, thereby improving the taste and quality of the final gummy candy product.
[0015] 2. In this utility model, after the mixed and dissolved raw materials are transported to the subsequent process, the motor can be started to drive the drive gear to rotate, thereby causing the bidirectional threaded rod to rotate. The adjusting component moves on it and pushes the connecting component through the transmission rod, so that the cleaning plate cleans the mixed raw materials attached to the surface of the stirring component, cleaning and recycling the raw materials that might otherwise be left behind and wasted, greatly reducing the waste of raw materials and lowering production costs.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of this utility model provides a stirring and dissolving device for processing gel gummies, including a dissolving chamber 1. A connecting frame 6 is connected inside the dissolving chamber 1 through a stirring element 5. A bidirectional threaded rod 12 is rotatably connected inside the connecting frame 6. A cleaning plate 9 is connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod 12 through a transmission rod 11. A passive gear 15 is provided at the top of the bidirectional threaded rod 12. A scraper 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting frame 6. The scraper 7 contacts the inner wall of the dissolving chamber 1. A discharge pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the dissolving chamber 1. A support column is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dissolving chamber 1.
[0027] Specifically, carefully selected raw materials are precisely fed into the dissolving chamber 1 through a specially designed feeding port at the top. While the stirring component 5 rotates at high speed, the connecting frame 6, which is closely connected to it, also moves in a circular motion within the dissolving chamber 1. It not only securely connects to the stirring component 5, but more importantly, the scraper 7 installed on it adheres tightly to the inner wall of the dissolving chamber 1 during rotation without causing any damage to the inner wall. As the connecting frame 6 rotates, the scraper 7 scrapes along the inner wall of the dissolving chamber 1, promptly removing the raw materials that have adhered to the inner wall due to the stirring process. If these raw materials adhering to the inner wall are not removed in time, they are very likely to burn due to prolonged heating. Once the raw materials are burnt, it will not only lead to waste of raw materials, but also seriously affect the quality of the produced soft candy, causing problems such as off-flavors and uneven color.
[0028] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The dissolving chamber 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 2, and a stirring element 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 2. The other end of the stirring element 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting frame 6. A motor 3 is installed at the top of the dissolving chamber 1, and the drive end of the motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft 2.
[0029] Specifically, the motor 3 is started, and the motor 3 drives the rotating shaft 2 to rotate at high speed in the dissolving chamber 1 smoothly and efficiently. The stirring component 5 installed on the rotating shaft 2, driven by the rotating shaft 2, stirs and mixes the raw materials put into the dissolving chamber 1 in an all-round and high-intensity manner at an extremely high speed. The strong stirring force generated by the stirring component 5 promotes the full collision and fusion of the raw materials, quickly breaks down the boundaries between the raw materials, and achieves uniform fusion, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent formation of a high-quality gummy candy raw material solution.
[0030] Reference Figures 5-7 The outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod 12 is threaded with an adjusting member 13, the outer wall of the adjusting member 13 is rotatably connected with a transmission rod 11, the other end of the transmission rod 11 is rotatably connected with a connecting member 10, the connecting member 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cleaning plate 9, the inside of the connecting frame 6 is rotatably connected with a drive gear 14, the outer wall of the drive gear 14 is meshed with a driven gear 15, the driven gear 15 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod 12, and a motor 8 is provided at the top of the connecting frame 6, the drive end of the motor 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the drive gear 14;
[0031] Specifically, the motor 8 is started, and the power output by the motor 8 drives the active gear 14 to rotate at high speed inside the connecting frame 6. The active gear 14 meshes with the passive gear 15. This high-precision gear meshing design ensures stable power transmission. As the active gear 14 rotates, the passive gear 15 also rotates synchronously. The passive gear 15 is connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 12, causing the bidirectional threaded rod 12 to rotate at high speed under the drive of the passive gear 15. When the bidirectional threaded rod 12 rotates, the adjusting member 13 fitted on it will move towards or away from each other according to the direction of the thread. The movement of the adjusting member 13 is transmitted through the transmission rod 11. The transmission rod 11 accurately transmits the linear motion of the adjusting member 13 to the connecting member 10, pushing the connecting member 10 to move accordingly. Finally, the cleaning plate 9 connected to the connecting member 10 starts to work, which can effectively clean the mixed raw materials attached to the surface of the mixing member 5, greatly avoiding the waste of raw materials, reducing production costs, and also conforming to the concept of modern green production, energy conservation and emission reduction.
[0032] Working principle: First, the raw materials are fed into the dissolving chamber 1 from above. Then, the motor 3 drives the rotating shaft 2 to rotate inside the dissolving chamber 1, causing the stirring component 5 to stir and mix the raw materials. At the same time, the rotation of the stirring component 5 drives the connecting frame 6 connected to it to rotate inside the dissolving chamber 1, causing the scraper 7 on it to scrape off the raw materials adhering to the inner wall of the dissolving chamber 1, preventing the dissolving chamber 1 from overheating and burning the raw materials, which would affect the quality of the produced soft candy. The mixed and dissolved raw materials are transported to the subsequent processing steps by opening the switch valve in the discharge pipe 4. At this time, the motor 8 can be started to make the drive gear 14 rotate inside the connecting frame 6, which in turn drives the driven gear 15 and the bidirectional threaded rod 12 connected to it to rotate, causing the adjusting component 13 on the bidirectional threaded rod 12 to move towards or away from it. In turn, the transmission rod 11 pushes the connecting component 10 to move, so that the cleaning plate 9 connected to it cleans off the mixed raw materials adhering to the surface of the stirring component 5, avoiding waste of raw materials.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
