Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soybean product processing, and in particular to a conveying structure for processing fried soybean products. Background Technology

[0002] Fried tofu products are a type of food made primarily from tofu through a deep-frying process. They are popular for their crispy exterior and tender interior, as well as their rich texture. Common fried tofu products include fried tofu, fried tofu balls, and fried tofu rolls. To make them, the tofu is usually cut into cubes or mashed, coated with starch or breadcrumbs, and then deep-fried in hot oil until golden brown and crispy. The fried tofu products have a crispy exterior and a tender interior, retaining the nutritional value of tofu while adding a unique flavor. Depending on personal taste, chili powder, cumin, and other seasonings can also be added.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent discloses a conveying device for deep-frying soybean products (application number: 2022220823798). This application uses a collection box and a receiving inclined plate together to make the receiving inclined plate continuously and quickly scrape and collect the residue remaining on the surface of the conveyor belt into the collection box, eliminating the need for manual cleaning of the conveyor belt on the belt conveyor.

[0004] While the aforementioned application achieves automated cleaning of conveyor belt residue through the collaborative design of dynamic collection boxes and receiving inclined plates, significantly improving the cleaning efficiency of the pre-treatment stage, the device suffers from several drawbacks when conveying fried bean products. The large amount of residual oil adhering to the surface of the fried bean products after high-temperature frying easily penetrates the pores of the conveyor belt during transport, causing not only grease contamination affecting equipment hygiene but also the risk of cross-contamination due to oil residue. Furthermore, the device lacks sufficient functional integration and complementary processing modules for fried products (such as oil draining and seasoning processes), making it difficult to meet the industrialization needs of multi-stage collaborative operations in the bean product processing chain and limiting the applicability of the equipment in the complete production process.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical shortcomings, a solution is proposed. Utility Model Content

The roller is rotatably connected to the brush roller 19 via a synchronous wheel assembly. When the stepper motor 17 starts, it drives the roller to rotate, which in turn drives the mesh conveyor belt 18 to rotate, thus conveying the fried bean products on the mesh conveyor belt 18. When the roller rotates, it drives the brush roller 19 to rotate via the synchronous wheel assembly. When the brush roller 19 rotates, it sweeps debris from the outside of the mesh conveyor belt 18 into the drawer 151 for collection.

[0028] A mixing and spreading mechanism is also provided on the outside of the conveyor frame 1. The mixing and spreading mechanism includes a gantry 2. A material bucket 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the gantry 2 by bolts. A top plate 22 is placed on the top of the material bucket 21. A stepper motor 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the top plate 22 by bolts. A stirrer 24 is fixedly connected to the end of the drive shaft of the stepper motor 23. When the stepper motor 23 starts, it drives the stirrer 24 to rotate, thereby mixing the spreading material in the material bucket 21. A conveying cylinder 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the inside of the gantry 2. The inlet of the conveying cylinder 25 is connected to the bottom of the material bucket 21. A servo motor 26 is fixedly connected to one end of the conveying cylinder 25.

[0029] The housing 3 is installed inside the mounting slot 14. A cleaning nozzle 31 is arranged in an array on one side of the lower part of the housing 3. A water inlet pipe 32 is fixedly connected to one end of the housing 3 and communicates with the interior of the cleaning nozzle 31. The other end of the water inlet pipe 32 is connected to an external water supply. An air outlet 33 is arranged in an array on the other side of the lower part of the housing 3. An air inlet pipe 34 is fixedly connected to the other end of the housing 3 and communicates with the interior of the air outlet 33. The air inlet pipe 34 is connected to an external air supply. A waste liquid tank 35 and a waste gas tank 36 are provided below the conveyor frame 1. The waste liquid tank 35 corresponds to the position of the cleaning nozzle 31, and the waste gas tank 36 corresponds to the position of the air outlet 33. Both the waste liquid tank 35 and the waste gas tank 36 are fixedly connected to the conveyor frame 1.

[0030] The working process and principle of this utility model are as follows:

[0031] In use, first place the seasonings to be sprinkled into the material bucket 21, then place the fried bean products above the mesh conveyor belt 18 through the feeding device or manually, start the stepper motor 17, the stepper motor 17 drives the mesh conveyor belt 18 to rotate through the roller, thereby conveying the fried bean products on the mesh conveyor belt 18 to one end closer to the base frame 15. When the fried bean products are above the oil collection tank 11, the oil drips on their outside into the oil collection tank 11 for collection. Then the fried bean products enter the lower part of the gantry 2. At this time, start the stepper motor 23 and the servo motor 26. When the stepper motor 23 starts, it drives the stirrer 24 to rotate, thereby mixing the seasonings in the material bucket 21.

[0032] When the servo motor 26 starts, it transports the seasoning in the material bucket 21 to the material distribution plate 27, thereby seasoning the fried bean products conveyed on the mesh conveyor belt 18. After seasoning, the fried bean products are transported to the other end of the mesh conveyor belt 18 for unloading. When the roller rotates, it drives the brush roller 19 to rotate through the synchronous wheel assembly. When the brush roller 19 rotates, it sweeps the remaining seasoning on the outside of the mesh conveyor belt 18 into the drawer 151 for collection. Then, the mesh conveyor belt 18 with the remaining seasoning moves to the space between the waste liquid tank 35 and the housing 3. At this time, water starts to enter through the water inlet pipe 32 and air starts to enter through the air inlet pipe 34, so that the cleaning nozzle 31 washes the mesh conveyor belt 18 and the air outlet 33 dries the mesh conveyor belt 18, thereby completing the further cleaning of the mesh conveyor belt 18.
