Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cheese processing technology, specifically to a cooling and forming device for cheese processing. Background Technology

[0002] Cheese, also known as curd, is a fermented milk product. Its properties are similar to common yogurt, both being made through fermentation and containing beneficial lactic acid bacteria. However, cheese is more concentrated than yogurt, almost a solid food, and therefore has a richer nutritional value. Each kilogram of cheese is made from 10 kilograms of milk, containing abundant protein, calcium, fat, phosphorus, and vitamins, making it a purely natural food. In terms of processing, cheese is fermented milk; in terms of nutrition, cheese is concentrated milk.

[0003] However, cheese processing requires cooling and shaping, but the current method of shaping cheese involves manually loading the mold and letting it stand still, which does not allow for direct cooling and shaping of the processed cheese, causing inconvenience. Therefore, we propose a cooling and shaping device for cheese processing. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a cooling and forming device for cheese processing, including a support frame. The surface of the support frame is provided with a shaping mechanism 4 and a forming mechanism 3. A conveying mechanism 2 is installed on the surface of the shaping mechanism 4, and a stirring mechanism 1 is installed on the top of the conveying mechanism 2. Raw materials are fed into the stirring mechanism 1, stirred and fermented, and then fed into the conveying mechanism 2. The conveying mechanism 2 then guides the raw materials into the forming mechanism 3. After forming, the raw materials are fed into the shaping mechanism 4 to shape the cheese. The integrated design from production to solidification increases the practicality of the device. Finally, the stirring mechanism 1 is cleaned by a water pump 108, a water suction pipe 109, a water guide pipe 111, and a cleaning brush 105.

[0023] Specifically, the mixing mechanism 1 includes a mixing chamber 101. A first motor 102 is installed on the top of the mixing chamber 101. A first rotating shaft 103 is installed at the output end of the first motor 102. A connecting rod 104 is welded to the surface of the first rotating shaft 103. Cleaning brushes 105 are installed at both ends of the connecting rod 104. A mixing paddle 106 is installed on the surface of the first rotating shaft 103. A feed inlet 107 is opened on the top of the mixing chamber 101. A water pump 108 is installed on the top of the mixing chamber 101. A water suction pipe 109 is installed at the input end of the water pump 108. A first water valve 110 is installed inside the water suction pipe 109. A water guide pipe 111 is installed at the output end of the water pump 108. One end of the water guide pipe 111 is connected to the mixing chamber 101. A discharge port 112 is welded to the bottom of the mixing chamber 101. The mixing chamber 101 is equipped with a solenoid valve 113. Cheese raw materials are fed into the mixing chamber 101 through the feed inlet 107. The first motor 102 drives the first rotating shaft 103 to rotate, which in turn rotates the mixing paddle 106 to mix the raw materials, causing the milk to coagulate into cheese. The solenoid valve 113 is then opened to remove the cheese from the mixing chamber 101. The water pump 109 is connected to an external water pipe, and the first water valve 110 is opened. Water is added to the mixing chamber 101 in conjunction with the water pump 108 and the water pipe 111. The first motor 102 drives the first rotating shaft 103 to rotate, which in turn rotates the connecting rod 104 and the cleaning brush 105 to clean the inner wall of the mixing chamber 101, making it easy to clean the mixing chamber 101 for future use.

[0024] Specifically, the molding mechanism 3 includes an extrusion box 301. A third motor 302 is installed on the top of the extrusion box 301. A third rotating shaft 303 is installed at the output end of the third motor 302. A rotating disk 304 is installed on the surface of the third rotating shaft 303. A molding cylinder 305 is installed on the surface of the rotating disk 304. An extrusion port 306 is opened on the surface of the extrusion box 301. An electric push rod 307 is set on the top of the extrusion box 301. A push plate 308 is installed at one end of the electric push rod 307. After the cheese is introduced into the molding cylinder 305 through the discharge pipe 205, the third motor 302 drives the third rotating shaft 303 to rotate, causing the connecting disk 304 to rotate, thereby rotating the molding cylinder 305 to the extrusion port 306. Then, the electric push rod 307 causes the push plate 308 to move down, and the push plate 308 pushes the cheese inside the molding cylinder 305 out through the extrusion port 306 and drops it into the brine tank 401.

[0025] Specifically, the conveying mechanism 2 includes a conveying cylinder 201, a second motor 202 is installed at one end of the conveying cylinder 201, a second rotating shaft 203 is installed at the output end of the second motor 202, a conveying roller 204 is installed on the surface of the second rotating shaft 203, a discharge pipe 205 is welded to the surface of the conveying cylinder 201, and one end of the discharge port 112 is connected to the conveying cylinder 201. The discharge port 112 discharges the cheese into the conveying cylinder 201. The second rotating shaft 203 is driven to rotate by the second motor 202, which in turn causes the conveying roller 204 to rotate, thus conveying the cheese and guiding it into the forming cylinder 305 through the discharge pipe 205.

[0026] Specifically, the shaping mechanism 4 includes a brine tank 401. A drain pipe 402 is welded to the surface of the brine tank 401. A second water valve 403 is installed inside the drain pipe 402. By adding brine to the brine tank 401, the cheese inside the forming cylinder 305 is pushed out through the extrusion port 306 by the push plate 308 and falls into the brine tank 401, thus shaping the cheese. After use, the cheese is taken out, and the second water valve 403 is opened to drain the used brine from the brine tank 401 through the drain pipe 402.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: All electrical equipment in this device is powered by an external power source. Cheese raw materials enter the mixing chamber 101 through the inlet 107. The first motor 102 drives the first rotating shaft 103 to rotate, causing the mixing paddle 106 to rotate and mix the raw materials, causing the milk to coagulate into cheese. Then, by opening the solenoid valve 113, the formed cheese is discharged from the mixing chamber 101. The discharged cheese enters the conveying cylinder 201 through the outlet 112. The second motor 202 drives the second rotating shaft 203 to rotate, causing the conveying roller 204 to rotate and convey the cheese. The cheese is then introduced into the forming cylinder 305 through the discharge pipe 205. After the cheese is introduced into the forming cylinder 305 through the discharge pipe 205, the third motor 302 drives the third rotating shaft 303 to rotate, causing the connecting plate 304 to rotate, thus rotating the forming cylinder. 305 rotates to the extrusion port 306, and then the electric push rod 307 moves the push plate 308 down. The push plate 308 pushes the cheese inside the forming cylinder 305 out through the extrusion port 306 and it falls into the brine tank 401. Brine is added to the brine tank 401 to shape the formed cheese. After use, the cheese is taken out, and then the second water valve 403 is opened to drain the brine from the brine tank 401 through the drain pipe 402. Then, by connecting the water suction pipe 109 to the external water pipe, the first water valve 110 is opened. With the help of the water pump 108 and the water guide pipe 111, water is added to the mixing chamber 101. Then, the first motor 102 drives the first rotating shaft 103 to rotate, causing the connecting rod 104 to rotate, which in turn causes the cleaning brush 105 to rotate, cleaning the inner wall of the mixing chamber 101. This makes it easy to clean the mixing chamber 101 for the next use.
