Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food crushing and sampling technology, and more specifically, to a food crushing and sampling machine used in food testing. Background Technology

[0002] Food pulverization sampling is a crucial step in the food testing process. It involves pulverizing raw food samples using specific equipment and methods to obtain representative, homogeneous samples for analysis. Pulverized samples have smaller particles and a larger surface area, allowing for better contact and reaction with reagents during testing, thus improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the detection method. For example, when testing for trace elements in food, pulverized samples dissolve more completely in the reagent, resulting in test results that more accurately reflect the actual content of the elements in the food.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent CN222419718U, which discloses a food crushing and sampling machine for food testing. This machine uses a food slicing structure to first cut the food into multiple slices. When these slices fall into the crushing chamber, they are crushed by the crushing rollers, reducing the load on the rollers and extending the machine's lifespan. The crushed material falls onto a filter screen below. If the food particles are still too small to pass through the filter, rotating blades in a material lifting structure lift them upwards. These lifted particles then fall back between the two crushing rollers for further crushing until they are small enough to pass through the filter. This structure ensures that the food particles entering the crushing chamber are of a substantially uniform size.

[0004] When the above-mentioned crushing and sampling machine is in use, the rotating motor drives the crushing wheel to rotate and crush the food particles. Then, the rotating drive motor lifts the incompletely crushed food particles that fall on the filter screen back up. Finally, the vibration of the vibrator can reduce the accumulation of food particles on the filter screen. The machine crushes and samples food through a series of drive devices. It has a complex structure and high operating cost. Utility Model Content

[0027] Furthermore, the second rotating shaft 506 is movably connected to the top of the vertical cylinder 3 via a bearing, and the second rotating shaft 506 is connected to the first rotating shaft 502 via a toothed belt 505. A U-shaped plate 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the crushing cylinder 1, and the top of the U-shaped plate 4 is fixedly connected to the stepper motor 501.
