This affects both processing efficiency and quality. To address this issue, we propose a raw material dissolving tank for tofu brine production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a raw material dissolving tank for making tofu brine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] Preferably, the crushing mechanism includes a fixed plate fixed to one side of the upper end of the fixed frame. A first drive motor is installed on both sides of the upper end of the fixed plate. The output shaft of the first drive motor is connected to a rotating rod through a coupling. A rotating rod on the same side passes through a crushing tank on the same side and extends into the crushing tank. Multiple crushing blades are fixed at equal intervals around the circumference of the rotating rod.

[0008] Preferably, the stirring mechanism includes a second drive motor fixed to one side of the upper end of the mixing tank, and the output shaft of the second drive motor is connected to a stirring rod via a coupling. The lower end of the stirring rod passes through the upper side wall of the mixing tank and extends into the mixing tank.

[0009] Preferably, the hydraulic lifting mechanism includes two hydraulic cylinders fixed to the upper end of the mixing tank, and the piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders are jointly fixed with a connecting plate. The two ends of the connecting plate are respectively fixed to one side of the two moving plates.
