DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] In order to better understand and implement, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0031] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the modules or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, therefore it cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0032] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0033] like Figures 1-5 The diagram shows a uniform conveying device for soaked rice, used in a rice cooker 8. The rice cooker 8 is equipped with a conveyor belt 81 and includes a frame, a vibrating motor 6, and a rice conveying channel 4. The frame includes a fixed support 1 and an inclined movable screen chamber 2. The movable screen chamber 2 is connected to the fixed support 1 by an elastic element 3, and a screen plate 5 is provided inside the movable screen chamber 2. The vibrating motor 6 is mounted on the movable screen chamber 2 and located at its bottom. The rice conveying channel 4 is located above the movable screen chamber 2 and is used to convey the soaked rice to the screen plate 5. The bottom of the rice conveying channel 4 has multiple through holes 43. When the soaked rice is conveyed from the rice conveying channel 4 and falls onto the screen plate 5 through the multiple through holes 43, the vibrating motor 6 vibrates and disperses the soaked rice to achieve uniform falling onto the conveyor belt 81 for cooking.

[0034] This utility model relates to a uniform conveying and soaking rice device. Multiple through-holes 43 allow for initial dispersion of the soaking rice before it falls onto the sieve plate 5. The vibration of the vibrating motor 6 further homogenizes the rice as it passes through the sieve plate 5, preventing excessive rice accumulation in certain areas and ensuring even cooking. Simultaneously, the initial dispersion of the soaking rice through the multiple through-holes 43 ensures partial uniform distribution before it falls onto the sieve plate 5, thereby reducing the load on the vibrating motor for further dispersion and improving dispersion efficiency.

[0035] See Figure 3 The rice conveying channel 4 includes a conveying pipe 41 and a distributing cylinder 42 connected to the bottom of the conveying pipe 41. The bottom of the distributing cylinder 42 is provided with multiple through holes 43. The distributing cylinder 42 has a conical structure, which allows the soaked rice to be initially dispersed before falling onto the sieve plate 5, thereby improving the uniformity of rice grain distribution and reducing the dispersion load on the subsequent vibration motor.

[0036] Specifically, the sieve plate 5 is provided with several first filter holes 51 for filtering out excess water from the soaked rice, thereby reducing the water content of the rice grains and optimizing the efficiency of the subsequent cooking process.

[0037] More specifically, the conveyor belt 81 is also provided with several second filter holes 811 for filtering out excess water from the soaked rice, thereby reducing water entrainment in the rice grains and improving the efficiency of the cooking process and the quality of the cooked rice.

[0038] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the apertures of the first filter hole 51 and the second filter hole 811 have been optimized to be small enough to effectively prevent rice grains from falling in, while ensuring that excess water is drained smoothly.

[0039] See Figure 5 The rice cooker 8 is also equipped with a steam component, which includes a steam conduit 9 and multiple steam connecting pipes 91 spaced apart on the steam conduit 9. The steam connecting pipes 91 are provided with multiple steam outlets 911 spaced apart. The steam outlets 911 spray steam onto the conveyor belt 81 to cook the soaked rice being conveyed.

[0040] In this embodiment, the rice cooker 8 also includes a cover 82, which is disposed above the conveyor belt 81 to reduce steam loss, thereby improving cooking efficiency and maintaining the stability of the cooking environment.

[0041] See Figure 4 The movable sieve chamber 2 has a recessed cavity, and the sieve plate 5 is placed on top of the recessed cavity to form a water receiving cavity 23 for collecting water dripping from the sieve plate 5. The bottom of the water receiving cavity 23 also has a drain outlet 231, and a water guide 7 and a water guide pipe 71 connected to the water guide 7 are connected to the drain outlet 231.

[0042] Furthermore, the rice cooker 8 also includes a water collection tank 83 for collecting water dripping from the conveyor belt 81, and the water pipe 71 is connected to the water collection tank 83.

[0043] See Figure 2 The outer wall of the movable screen chamber 2 is provided with a connecting part 21, and the connecting part 21 is provided with a first connecting protrusion 211; the fixed bracket 1 is provided with a second connecting protrusion 11, one end of the elastic member 3 is sleeved on the first connecting protrusion 211, and the other end is sleeved on the second connecting protrusion 11.

[0044] In this embodiment, the connecting part 21 is provided with multiple parts and spaced apart on the outer side wall of the movable screen chamber 2, and has multiple first connecting protrusions 211. The fixed bracket 1 is also provided with multiple second connecting protrusions 11 corresponding to the multiple first connecting protrusions 211. At the same time, multiple elastic members 3 connect the multiple first connecting protrusions 211 and the multiple second connecting protrusions 11, which effectively improves the stability and firmness of the movable screen chamber 2 during vibration and ensures the stability of the screening effect.

[0045] In this embodiment, the bottom of the movable screen chamber 2 is provided with a motor fixing bracket 22 for installing the vibration motor 6, so as to ensure the stable fixing of the vibration motor 6 and effectively transmit the vibration force to the movable screen chamber 2, thereby achieving uniform dispersion of the soaked rice.

[0046] In summary, this utility model's uniform conveying and soaking rice device utilizes multiple through-holes 43 to initially disperse the soaking rice before it falls onto the sieve plate 5. The sieve plate 5 then further homogenizes the rice, preventing excessive accumulation of rice grains in certain areas and ensuring uniform cooking. Furthermore, the movable sieve chamber 2 is connected to the fixed support 1 via an elastic element 3, maintaining its stability during vibration and ensuring even distribution of rice grains.

[0047] This utility model of a uniform conveying and soaking rice device effectively solves the problem of uneven conveying in traditional rice soaking systems, making the rice grains entering the rice cooker 8 uniform and with relatively consistent moisture content, thereby improving the cooking effect of rice, ensuring uniform cooking of rice, avoiding steam waste, and improving the final quality and taste of rice.
