Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cheese production technology, specifically relating to a cheese mixing tank for cheese production. Background Technology

[0002] Cheese is a fermented milk product, usually made from cow's or sheep's milk through fermentation, coagulation, and dehydration. Cheese is rich in nutrients such as protein, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins, and has a variety of flavors and textures. When fermenting cow's or sheep's milk, a cheese trough is used (coarse or sheep's milk is poured into the cheese trough, followed by inoculation with microorganisms, stirring, adding rennet, and removing the coagulated milk curds for the next step of drying).

[0003] After fresh milk coagulates into curds, the curds need to be removed from the cheese vat for drying. However, current technology lacks a mechanism for quickly removing the coagulated curds, resulting in slow cheese removal and low efficiency. Therefore, a technical measure is proposed to solve the problem of the lack of a mechanism for quickly removing coagulated curds and the resulting slow cheese removal and low efficiency in the current technology. Utility Model Content

[0004] (1) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cheese stirring tank for cheese production, which aims to solve the problem that the existing technology lacks a mechanism for quickly removing coagulated cheese curds, resulting in slow cheese removal speed and low efficiency.

[0006] (2) Technical solution

[0007] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a cheese-stirring trough for cheese production, comprising a trough body. A slot is formed in the middle of the side walls at both ends of the trough body, and a collecting component is slidably engaged in the slot. A support frame is mounted on the upper surface of the trough body. The support frame is L-shaped, and an electric telescopic rod is fixedly threaded through the upper end of the support frame. A lifting plate is mounted on the lower end of the electric telescopic rod. Thanks to the collecting component, the function of quickly removing coagulated cheese blocks is realized, resulting in faster cheese extraction, higher efficiency, and improved production efficiency.

[0008] Furthermore, multiple sets of evenly distributed support legs are installed on the lower surface of the tank.

[0009] Furthermore, a drain pipe is installed through the lower end of the middle position on the side of the tank, and a valve is provided on the drain pipe.

[0010] Furthermore, two sets of motors are symmetrically installed at both ends of the lifting plate. The motors are connected to vertical rods, which are rotatably connected to the lifting plate. Two sets of fixing rings are fixedly sleeved on the outside of the vertical rods. Two sets of symmetrically distributed stirring plates are installed on the outside of the fixing rings. The end of the stirring plate away from the fixing rings converges.

[0011] Furthermore, the collecting component includes a collecting frame that is slidably adapted to the inner wall of the tank, with the bottom of the collecting frame in contact with the bottom of the tank. The size of the stirring plate is adapted to the width of the collecting frame. Multiple sets of evenly distributed circular holes are opened on the lower surface of the collecting frame. Vertical plates are threadedly installed at the middle position of the outer sides of both ends of the collecting frame. Two sets of bolts pass through the sides of the vertical plates and are threadedly connected to the collecting frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the vertical plate is slidably adapted to the slot.

[0013] Furthermore, a ring is installed at the middle of the upper end of the vertical plate, a grip is fixedly sleeved inside the ring, and two sets of symmetrically distributed anti-slip sleeves are sleeved at both ends of the grip.

[0014] (3) Beneficial effects

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This utility model, through the setting of an electric telescopic rod and a lifting plate, facilitates the up-and-down movement of the motor, stirring plate, vertical rod, and fixing ring, and prevents the motor, stirring plate, vertical rod, and fixing ring from affecting the removal of milk blocks. The electric telescopic rod, when activated, drives the lifting plate, motor, stirring plate, vertical rod, and fixing ring to move up and down.

[0017] With the setup of two sets of motors, stirring plates, vertical rods, and fixing rings, the fresh milk is stirred more evenly, improving the mixing effect between the fresh milk and the bacteria. Starting the motor drives the stirring plates to rotate, and the rotation of the stirring plates mixes the bacteria and fresh milk evenly.

[0018] By setting up the collection component, the function of quickly removing coagulated milk blocks is realized. The cheese is picked up quickly and efficiently, improving production efficiency. Hold the anti-slip sleeve and then lift the anti-slip sleeve to move the collection frame upward. The upward movement of the collection frame moves the milk block upward, and the whey flows out through the round hole. Then, the milk block is removed from the tank as a whole, and then the milk block inside the collection frame is poured into the processing location. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0026] 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.

[0027] This specific embodiment is a cheese mixing tank for cheese production, and its structural schematic diagram is shown below. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the system includes a tank 1. A slot 10 is provided at the middle of both end side walls inside the tank 1, and a receiving component 2 is slidably engaged in the slot 10. A support frame 4 is installed on the upper surface of the tank 1. The support frame 4 is L-shaped, and an electric telescopic rod 5 is fixedly threaded through its upper end. A lifting plate 6 is installed at the lower end of the electric telescopic rod 5. Multiple sets of evenly distributed support legs 3 are installed on the lower surface of the tank 1. A drain pipe 8 is installed through the lower end of the middle side of the tank 1, and a valve 9 is installed on the drain pipe 8. Two sets of motors 7 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the lifting plate 6. The motors 7 are connected to vertical rods 13, which are rotatably connected to the lifting plate 6. Two sets of fixing rings 12 are fixedly sleeved on the outside of the vertical rods 13. Two sets of symmetrically distributed stirring plates 11 are installed outside the fixing rings 12. The end of the stirring plate 11 away from the fixing rings 12 converges. In actual cheese production, fresh milk is poured into the tank 1, followed by the addition of microbial cultures (e.g., lactic acid bacteria). (Acid bacteria), then the electric telescopic rod 5 is started to drive the lifting plate 6 downward. The downward movement of the lifting plate 6 drives the motor 7, vertical rod 13, fixing ring 12, and stirring plate 11 downward. After the stirring plate 11 enters the tank 1, the electric telescopic rod 5 is closed. At this time, the motor 7 is started, which drives the vertical rod 13 to rotate. The rotation of the vertical rod 13 drives the fixing ring 12 to rotate. The rotation of the fixing ring 12 drives the stirring plate 11 to rotate. The rotation of the stirring plate 11 mixes the bacteria with the fresh milk evenly. Then the electric telescopic rod 5 is started to drive the motor, vertical rod 13, fixing ring 12, and stirring plate 11 upward to detach from the tank 1. Then rennet is added into the tank 1, causing the fresh milk to coagulate into milk curds (the milk curd production ratio is 10%-15%, and its volume is much smaller than the amount of fresh milk injected). Then the valve 9 is opened, and the whey is discharged through the drain pipe 8. Then the collecting component 2 is lifted upward to quickly remove the milk curds.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the collecting component 2 includes a collecting frame 201, which is slidably adapted to the inner wall of the tank 1. The bottom of the collecting frame 201 contacts the bottom of the tank 1. The size of the stirring plate 11 is adapted to the width of the collecting frame 201. Multiple sets of evenly distributed circular holes 202 are opened on the lower surface of the collecting frame 201. Vertical plates 204 are threadedly installed at the middle position of the outer side of both ends of the collecting frame 201. Two sets of bolts 205 pass through the side of the vertical plate 204 and are threadedly connected to the collecting frame 201. The vertical plate 204 is slidably adapted to the slot 10. A ring 207 is installed at the middle position of the upper end of the vertical plate 204. A handle 203 is fixedly sleeved inside the ring 207. Two sets of symmetrically distributed anti-slip sleeves 206 are sleeved at both ends of the handle 203. The anti-slip sleeves 206 are made of rubber. (To increase friction and improve grip), then lift the anti-slip sleeve 206 upwards, causing the handle 203, ring 207, vertical plate 204, and bolt 205 to move upwards. The vertical plate 204 moves upwards, causing the collection frame 201 to move upwards. The collection frame 201 moves upwards, causing the milk block to move upwards. The whey flows out through the round hole 202 (because the volume of the milk block is much smaller than the volume of the tank 1, the collection frame 201 can hold the milk block in the tank 1. In actual use, to prevent the milk block from being exposed from the round hole 202, gauze can be laid at the bottom of the collection frame 201. At this time, the whey can flow out, but the milk block cannot flow out). Then, the milk block is removed from the tank 1 as a whole. Then, the milk block inside the collection frame 201 is poured into the processing location (the next step is to pile up and squeeze the milk block to further discharge the whey).

[0029] Working principle: In actual cheese production, fresh milk is poured into tank 1, followed by the addition of microbial cultures (such as lactic acid bacteria). Then, the electric telescopic rod 5 is activated, causing the lifting plate 6 to move downwards. The downward movement of the lifting plate 6 causes the motor 7, vertical rod 13, fixing ring 12, and stirring plate 11 to move downwards. After the stirring plate 11 enters tank 1, the electric telescopic rod 5 is closed. At this time, the motor 7 is activated, causing the vertical rod 13 to rotate. The rotation of the vertical rod 13 causes the fixing ring 12 to rotate, which in turn causes the stirring plate 11 to rotate. The rotation of the stirring plate 11 mixes the microbial cultures and fresh milk evenly. Finally, the electric telescopic rod 5 is activated again, causing the motor, vertical rod 13, fixing ring 12, and stirring plate 11 to move upwards and disengage. Tank 1 is then filled with rennet, causing the fresh milk to coagulate into milk curds (the milk curd production rate is 10%-15%, and its volume is much smaller than the amount of fresh milk injected). Then, valve 9 is opened to drain the whey through drain pipe 8. Then, the collection component 2 is lifted upwards to quickly remove the milk curds. The electric telescopic rod 5 and lifting plate 6 facilitate the up and down movement of motor 7, stirring plate 11, vertical rod 13, and fixing ring 12, preventing the motor 7, stirring plate 11, vertical rod 13, and fixing ring 12 from affecting the removal of milk curds. The two sets of motor 7, stirring plate 11, vertical rod 13, and fixing ring 12 make the fresh milk more evenly stirred, improving the mixing effect of fresh milk and bacteria.

[0030] The specific working method of the collecting component 2 is as follows: hold the anti-slip sleeve 206 (the anti-slip sleeve 206 is made of rubber to increase friction and improve grip), then lift the anti-slip sleeve 206 upwards, which will cause the handle 203, ring 207, vertical plate 204, and bolt 205 to move upwards. The upward movement of the vertical plate 204 will cause the collecting frame 201 to move upwards. The upward movement of the collecting frame 201 will cause the whey block to move upwards, and the whey will flow out through the round hole 202 (because the volume of the whey block is much smaller than the volume of the tank 1, the collecting frame 201 can hold it). The milk curds inside the tank 1 are removed. To prevent the milk curds from leaking out of the round hole 202 during actual use, gauze can be laid at the bottom of the collection frame 201 (at this time, whey can flow out, but milk curds cannot). Then, the milk curds are removed from the tank 1 as a whole, and the milk curds inside the collection frame 201 are poured into the processing location (the next step is to pile up and squeeze the milk curds to further discharge the whey). By setting up the collection component 2, the function of quickly removing the coagulated milk curds is realized. The cheese is picked up quickly and efficiently, which improves production efficiency.

[0031] 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.
