Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of food processing, specifically to a herbal ingredient mixing container. Background Technology

[0002] Herbal ingredients refer to the edible parts of herbaceous plants, including leaves, flowers, fruits, and roots. These ingredients play an important role in cooking, not only providing rich nutritional value but also adding flavor and color to dishes. For example, herbs such as basil, rosemary, and mint are often used to enhance the aroma of food; while vegetables such as asparagus, celery, and carrots are common in everyday diets. In addition, herbal ingredients are also widely used in the preparation of medicinal cuisine and herbal beverages, possessing the effects of regulating the body and promoting health.

[0003] In existing related technologies, the preparation of herbal ingredients mainly involves weighing and mixing. These two operations are generally carried out separately. That is, different kinds of herbal ingredients are weighed first, and then put into the container and mixed by the stirring equipment in the container. Although this can meet the basic requirements of preparation, weighing and mixing are carried out separately, which prolongs the operation process and reduces the overall preparation efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0015] The present application will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0016] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a herbal ingredient mixing container includes a container body 1. The top of the container body 1 is provided with a feeding port 11 and the bottom is provided with a discharging port 12. The inner side of the container body 1 is provided with a weighing hopper 2 and a guide plate 3. The weighing hopper 2 is funnel-shaped with a larger upper part and a smaller lower part. A limiting ring 13 is provided on the inner wall of the container body 1. The weighing hopper 2 is fitted on the limiting ring 13. A weighing module 4 is provided below the weighing hopper 2. The weighing module 4 includes a base 41, a weighing sensor 42 and a pusher 43 arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The pusher 43 moves horizontally and pushes the weighing hopper 2 to move vertically. When the pusher 43 and the weighing hopper 2 are coaxially arranged, the pusher 43 closes the outlet of the weighing hopper 2 and the weighing hopper 2 is separated from the limiting ring 13.

[0017] Before feeding material into tank 1 through inlet 11, pusher head 43 is moved to a position coaxial with weighing hopper 2. During this process, pusher head 43 pushes weighing hopper 2 upward and separates it from limiting ring 13. Then, the upper part of pusher head 43 extends into the inner side of weighing hopper 2. At this time, weighing hopper 2 will fall slightly but still remain separated from limiting ring 13. Thus, the entire weight of weighing hopper 2 will be applied to pusher head 43. After the material falls into weighing hopper 2, the weight data collected by weighing sensor 42 is the total weight of the material, weighing hopper 2, and pusher head 43, thus reliably achieving the weighing operation of the material. After the material is weighed, pusher head 43 returns to its original position. During this process, a collision occurs between weighing hopper 2 and limiting ring 13, thereby achieving material mixing. By reasonably adjusting the position of pusher head 43, both weighing and mixing of the material are achieved simultaneously, improving the mixing efficiency.

[0018] The inner diameter of the limiting ring 13 is larger than the minimum outer diameter of the weighing hopper 2, and the inner diameter of the limiting ring 13 is smaller than the maximum inner diameter of the weighing hopper 2. The pusher head 43 is hemispherical, and the maximum outer diameter of the pusher head 43 is larger than the minimum inner diameter of the weighing hopper 2, while the minimum outer diameter of the pusher head 43 is smaller than the minimum inner diameter of the weighing hopper 2. By reasonably setting the dimensions of the limiting ring 13, the weighing hopper 2, and the pusher head 43, it is ensured that when the weighing hopper 2 is in the weighing state, the weighing hopper 2 and the limiting ring 13 can be separated from each other, and when the weighing hopper 2 is in the discharging state, the weighing hopper 2 can be mounted on the limiting ring 13 and vibrate between the limiting rings 13.

[0019] A limiting rod 44 and a driving rod 45 are provided on the inner wall of the tank body 1. The limiting rod 44 and the driving rod 45 extend horizontally and are parallel to each other. Both the limiting rod 44 and the driving rod 45 pass through the base 41. The limiting rod 44 is slidably connected to the base 41, and the driving rod 45 is threadedly connected to the base 41. An electric motor 46 is provided on the outer wall of the tank body 1. The electric motor 46 is used to drive the driving rod 45 to rotate. Since the base 41 is threadedly connected to the driving rod 45 and slidably connected to the limiting rod 44, it is ensured that after the electric motor 46 drives the driving rod 45 to rotate, the base 41 can reciprocate along the axial direction of the driving rod 45, thereby ensuring that the position between the pusher 43 and the weighing hopper 2 can be reliably adjusted.

[0020] The inner wall of the tank body 1 is provided with several bearing seats 14. Both ends of the limiting rod 44 are inserted into the corresponding bearing seats 14. One end of the drive rod 45 is inserted into the corresponding bearing seat 14, and the other end of the drive rod 45 extends to the outside of the tank body 1. The other end of the drive rod 45 is provided with a driven gear 47. The output shaft of the motor 46 is provided with a driving gear 48, which meshes with the driven gear 47. The motor 46 is used to drive the driving gear 48 and the driven gear 47 to rotate. The bearing seats 14 ensure that the drive rod 45 can rotate reliably and the limiting rod 44 can be reliably limited. In this way, after the motor 46 starts working and with the cooperation of the driving gear 48 and the driven gear 47, the horizontal drive of the base 41 is realized.

[0021] A support plate 15 is provided on the inner wall of the tank body 1, located below the discharge port 12. A door panel 16 is detachably provided on the outer wall of the tank body 1. The door panel 16 is L-shaped, with its horizontal end penetrating the discharge port 12 and contacting the top of the support plate 15. The top of the horizontal end of the door panel 16 contacts the bottom of the guide plate 3, and the vertical end of the door panel 16 is attached to the outer wall of the tank body 1, sealing the discharge port 12. A vibration motor 17 is provided at the bottom of the support plate 15, which is used to vibrate the support plate 15 and the guide plate 3. After the door panel 16 is inserted into the discharge port 12, the material in the weighing hopper 2 can be released downwards and fall onto the top of the guide plate 3. At this time, the vibration energy generated by the vibration motor 17 is transmitted to the material through the support plate 15, the door panel 16, and the guide plate 3, thereby improving the mixing effect of the material. At the same time, during the material mixing process, the weighing hopper 2 can still weigh the material, realizing the sequential addition of multiple materials.

[0022] The inner wall of the tank body 1 is provided with a receiving groove 18, and a rotating seat 19 is provided in the receiving groove 18. One end of the guide plate 3 is connected to the rotating seat 19, and the other end of the guide plate 3 passes through the discharge port 12 and abuts against the vertical end of the door plate 16. When the door plate 16 closes the discharge port 12, the door plate 16 is in a horizontal state. In this way, after the mixing is completed and the door plate 16 is removed, the guide plate 3 can rotate around the rotating seat 19, and the height of the end of the guide plate 3 near the rotating seat 19 is higher than the height of the end of the guide plate 3 near the discharge port 12. In this way, the material is automatically slid down. At this time, the vibration motor 17 can also vibrate the guide plate 3, thereby improving the discharge efficiency.

[0023] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this application shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this application.
