Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a rice flour production equipment technical field, especially a kind of energy-saving type powder boiling pot for rice flour production. BACKGROUND
[0002] Rice flour production is a kind of strip rice product processed by soaking, grinding, cooking, extruding, aging and other processes. Among them, cooking is the key step to determine the final quality of rice flour. Through the action of high temperature and humidity, the starch in rice is fully gelatinized to form a gel network structure with elasticity and toughness. In traditional process, the cooked rice flour needs to be further cooked to promote starch retrogradation and remove excess starch residues on the surface. This process is called "powder boiling".
[0003] The current powder boiling process generally uses open-type boiling pot, which has the following technical defects: first, the traditional powder boiling equipment lacks dynamic stirring function, which causes uneven heating of rice flour during cooking, resulting in local over-gelatinization or insufficient gelatinization, seriously affecting the quality and taste of rice flour.
[0004] Secondly, the energy consumption problem of traditional equipment cannot be ignored. Most existing boiling pots use open heating structure and do not effectively configure insulation structure, with heat loss rate as high as 30%-40%. This not only causes energy waste, but also increases production cost. In addition, the contact area between heating element and pot bottom is insufficient, which reduces the heat transfer efficiency and further aggravates the energy consumption problem.
[0005] In addition, after cooking, rice flour needs to be separated from turbid cooking liquid (containing detached starch and impurities), but the manual fishing method is not complete, which not only affects the efficiency of subsequent drying process, but also may cause microbial growth. Finally, in continuous production, it is difficult to accurately control the cooking time and temperature of different batches of rice flour with traditional equipment, because the angle of pouring out material is fixed, which affects the accuracy of cooking liquid discharge rate and rice flour retention amount. These problems not only reduce production efficiency, but also increase equipment maintenance cost. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0029] Example
[0030] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides an energy-saving rice noodle cooking pot for rice noodle production, including a pot body 1, a horizontal plate 3 installed at the top of the pot body 1, an electric heating plate 2 installed at the bottom of the pot body 1, a pot lid 4 hinged to both sides of the horizontal plate 3, an insulation sleeve 14 installed on the outer side of the pot body 1, a rotating shaft 8 installed on both sides of the pot body 1, a vertical frame 9 rotatably connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 8, a base frame 10 installed at the bottom of the vertical frame 9, a rotating mechanism 12 for rotating the rotating shaft 8 installed on one side of one of the vertical frames 9, and a filter screen 5 installed at the top inner side of the pot body 1. High-efficiency cooking is achieved through the electric heating plate 2 at the bottom of the pot body 1. The pot body 1 is heated to provide heat for cooking the rice noodles. The lid 4 is hinged to both sides of the horizontal plate 3 for easy opening and closing, facilitating the addition of rice noodles and observation of the cooking process, while also reducing heat loss. The insulation sleeve 14 wraps around the outside of the pot body 1, effectively reducing heat loss and achieving energy saving. The rotating shaft 8 is installed on both sides of the pot body 1, working with the upright frame 9 to allow the pot body 1 to rotate, facilitating the pouring out of the cooked rice noodles. The base frame 10 is installed at the bottom of the upright frame 9 to enhance the stability of the equipment. The rotating mechanism 12 can drive the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, realizing the flipping operation of the pot body 1. The filter screen 5 is installed on the top inner side of the pot body 1 to facilitate the separation of rice noodles from the cooking water. The insulation sleeve 14 is preferably composed of an aluminum silicate fiber layer and a 304 stainless steel outer shell bonded together with a high-temperature adhesive. The thickness of the aluminum silicate fiber layer is controlled within the range of 25mm ± 5mm. Through the composite design of low thermal conductivity material and metal outer shell, both heat preservation performance is guaranteed, while avoiding the problem of easy powdering and shedding of traditional rock wool materials. The heating area of the electric heating plate 2 can be further optimized into two independent temperature control zones distributed in concentric circles, specifically including a central circular heating zone and an outer ring heating zone. The temperature of the two zones can be adjusted independently through the control panel 13. For example, the central zone can be set to 95℃±2℃ and the outer zone can be set to 85℃±2℃ to adapt to the heat conduction characteristics of the rice noodles spreading from the center to the outside during the cooking process, thereby reducing the gelatinization phenomenon caused by local overheating.
[0031] The rotating mechanism 12 includes a housing 1201. One end face of the housing 1201 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the uprights 9. A drive shaft 1203 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the housing 1201. One end of one of the rotating shafts 8 passes through the inner side of the housing 1201. A worm gear 1205 is mounted on the outer side of the drive shaft 1203. A worm wheel 1204 is installed at one end of one of the rotating shafts 8. The worm wheel 1204 and the worm gear 1205 mesh. Through the meshing of the worm wheel 1204 and the worm gear 1205, the rotation of the drive shaft 1203 can drive the rotation of one of the rotating shafts 8, thereby realizing the angle adjustment function of the pot body 1, which is convenient for operations such as pouring out rice noodles. It also has a self-locking function.
[0032] The second motor 1202 is installed on one side of the chassis 1201. The output end of the second motor 1202 is connected to one end of the drive shaft 1203. The drive shaft 1203 is electrically rotated through the connection between the output end of the second motor 1202 and one end of the drive shaft 1203.
[0033] The filter screen 5 is semi-circular and located at the bottom of one of the pot lids 4. This placement allows for solid-liquid separation when the pot body 1 is tilted towards the filter screen 5. The filter screen 5 has a 5mm wide snap-fit flange along its edge. A 3mm deep mounting groove is located on the inner wall of the pot body 1, containing a high-temperature resistant silicone sealing strip. The filter screen 5 is quickly installed and removed through the interference fit between the snap-fit flange and the mounting groove. The silicone sealing strip prevents leakage of the cooking liquid. For cleaning, simply tilt the pot body 1 so that the filter screen 5 faces downwards and gently push it out.
[0034] The base frame 10 is H-shaped, and casters 11 are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the base frame 10. The casters 11 installed at the four corners of the bottom of the base frame 10 enable the cooking pot to move flexibly within the production site, facilitating the adjustment of the equipment position.

This ensures that the rice noodles are heated evenly in the pot, prevents them from sticking together, improves the cooking quality of the rice noodles, ensures a consistent taste, and also increases cooking efficiency and shortens cooking time.
[0036] The other end of the chassis 1201 is equipped with a control panel 13, which enables the equipment to be controlled and increases the ease of use of the product.
[0037] Specifically, the working principle of this energy-saving rice noodle cooking pot is as follows: When using the energy-saving rice noodle cooking pot, the electric heating plate 2 at the bottom of the pot body 1 provides efficient heating for cooking the rice noodles.

A filter screen 5 is located at the bottom of one of the pot lids 4, allowing for solid-liquid separation when the pot 1 is tilted towards the filter screen 5. Casters 11 are installed at the four corners of the base frame 10, allowing the cooking pot to move flexibly within the production area for easy position adjustment. The output of the first motor 7 is connected to the top of the stirring rod 6, enabling the stirring rod 6 to rotate electrically, thus stirring the rice noodles during the cooking process. This ensures even heating of the rice noodles in the pot, preventing them from sticking together, improving the cooking quality, ensuring consistent texture, increasing cooking efficiency, and shortening cooking time. A control panel 13 is installed on the other end of the casing 1201, enabling equipment control and increasing ease of use.
[0038] In summary, this invention improves observation efficiency, data quality, and environmental stability through the integrated design of three-axis linkage positioning, dual-degree-of-freedom angle adjustment, and adaptive cleaning system, thus solving the technical bottlenecks of traditional incubators, such as limited field of view, high reliance on manual labor, and data dispersion.
