Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of konjac vermicelli processing technology, specifically to a konjac vermicelli processing and rinsing device. Background Technology

[0002] Konjac contains 35% starch, 3% protein, and various vitamins and minerals such as potassium, phosphorus, and selenium. It also contains konjac polysaccharides, which are essential for human health. Konjac noodles are one of the most common processed konjac products. In the processing of konjac noodles, rinsing is a crucial step. Traditional konjac noodle rinsing is usually done manually, which is labor-intensive, inefficient, and results in uneven rinsing, making it difficult to ensure consistent product quality. Although some existing rinsing equipment has improved production efficiency to some extent, problems such as insufficient rinsing and water waste still exist. Therefore, it is necessary to design a konjac noodle processing rinsing device. Utility Model Content

[0020] A placement net cylinder 16 is provided above the rinsing tank 1. A flipping mechanism for driving the placement net cylinder 16 to flip is provided on the outside of the placement net cylinder 16. The rinsing tank 1 is also provided with a lifting mechanism for moving the placement net cylinder 16 and the flipping mechanism into or out of the rinsing area 2.

[0021] Below the rinsing tank 1, a treatment tank 21 is connected via a water guide pipe 20. The treatment tank 21 contains a rinsing water treatment mechanism and a circulation mechanism to direct the treated rinsing water to the spray head assembly 18. The konjac noodles to be rinsed are placed in a placement mesh cylinder 16, which has a discharge door for easy placement and removal of the konjac noodles. A lifting mechanism moves the placement mesh cylinder 16 into the rinsing zone 2, and a tilting mechanism slowly tilts the placement mesh cylinder 16. This slow tilting prevents... The konjac noodles break, so the konjac noodles are rinsed with rinsing water in rinsing zone 2. After rinsing, the placing net cylinder 16 is moved up to the side of the spray head group 18 by the lifting mechanism. The rinse water enters the treatment tank 21 through the water guide pipe 20. The rinse water is treated by the rinse water treatment mechanism. The treated rinse water is transported to the spray head group 18 through the circulation mechanism and sprayed out to further spray and clean the konjac noodles in the placing net cylinder 16, ensuring that the rinsing is thorough while realizing the recycling of the rinse water.

[0022] In a further embodiment, the flipping mechanism includes mounting frames 10 on both sides of the net cylinder 16. A turntable 14 is provided on the outer side of the mounting frame 10. A rotating shaft 13 is provided on the side of the turntable 14 facing the mounting frame 10. A flipping motor 11 is provided in one of the mounting frames 10, and the output end of the flipping motor 11 is connected to the adjacent rotating shaft 13. A rotating seat 12 is provided in the other mounting frame 10, and the rotating seat 12 is connected to the adjacent rotating shaft 13. A card seat 15 is fixed on the side of the turntable 14 away from the mounting frame 10. A positioning pin is provided on the card seat 15 for positioning the net cylinder 16. When the flipping motor 11 works, it drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate, which, in conjunction with the rotating seat 12, causes the turntable 14 to rotate. In turn, the card seat 15 drives the net cylinder 16 to flip. The positioning pin facilitates the installation and removal of the net cylinder 16.

[0023] In a further embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes lifting frames 3 located on both sides of the top of the rinsing tank 1 and extending into the rinsing tank 1. One of the lifting frames 3 is equipped with an adjusting motor 4, the output end of which is connected to a screw 5. An adjusting block 6 is threaded onto the screw 5. The other lifting frame 3 is equipped with a sliding rod 7, on which a slider 8 is slidably mounted. Both the adjusting block 6 and the slider 8 are fixed with connecting seats 9. The connecting seats 9 are fixedly connected to the adjacent mounting frame 10. By driving the screw 5 to rotate through the adjusting motor 4, the adjusting block 6 moves on the screw 5. In conjunction with the sliding rod 7 and the slider 8, the connecting seats 9 drive the mounting frame 10 to move up and down.

[0024] In a further embodiment, the rinsing water treatment mechanism includes a filter screen 24 located above the inside of the treatment tank 21, and a plurality of mixing shafts 25 driven by a drive motor located below the inside of the treatment tank 21, with a plurality of blades 26 on the mixing shafts 25.

[0025] The treatment tank 21 is also equipped with a neutralization pipe 27, which filters impurities in the rinse water after rinsing through the filter screen 24. Acid is added into the treatment tank 21 through the neutralization pipe 27 to neutralize the alkaline rinse water generated after rinsing konjac noodles with alkaline water on the surface. The treatment tank 21 is equipped with a door at the top, and the inner wall of the treatment tank 21 is equipped with a locking block that slides with the filter screen 24. The door facilitates the removal and cleaning of the filter screen 24. The treatment tank 21 is also equipped with a pH sensor to facilitate the detection of the pH value of the rinse water in the treatment tank 21 and to facilitate the addition of acid.

[0026] In a further embodiment, the circulation mechanism includes a water supply pipe 19 located on both sides inside the rinsing tank 1 and connected to the spray head assembly 18. The treatment tank 21 is provided with a circulation pipe 22 connected to the water supply pipe 19. A circulation pump 23 is provided on the circulation pipe 22. Through the cooperation of the circulation pipe 22 and the circulation pump 23, the treated rinsing water is transported to the water supply pipe 19 and sprayed out from the spray head assembly 18 for spraying operation.

[0027] In a further embodiment, both the bottom of the rinsing tank 1 and the bottom of the treatment tank 21 are provided with drain pipes, which facilitate the discharge of wastewater from the rinsing tank 1 and the treatment tank 21.

[0028] Working principle: The konjac noodles to be rinsed are placed in the placement mesh cylinder 16. The motor 4 drives the screw 5 to rotate, causing the adjusting block 6 to move on the screw 5. This, in conjunction with the sliding rod 7 and the slider 8, causes the connecting seat 9 to move the mounting frame 10 up and down, thus moving the placement mesh cylinder 16 into the rinsing zone 2. The flipping motor 11 then operates, driving the rotating shaft 13, which, in conjunction with the rotating seat 12, causes the turntable 14 to rotate. This, in turn, causes the placement mesh cylinder 16 to slowly flip via the clamping seat 15. The konjac noodles are rinsed with the rinsing water in the rinsing zone 2. After rinsing, the placement mesh cylinder is lifted by the lifting mechanism. The cylinder 16 is moved to one side of the spray head assembly 18. The rinse water after rinsing enters the treatment tank 21 through the water guide pipe 20. The impurities in the rinse water are filtered through the filter screen 24. Acid is added to the treatment tank 21 through the neutralization pipe 27 to neutralize the alkaline rinse water generated after rinsing the konjac noodles with alkaline water on the surface. The treated rinse water is transported to the water supply pipe 19 and sprayed out from the spray head assembly 18 through the circulation pipe 22 and the circulation pump 23 to further spray and clean the konjac noodles placed in the cylinder 16, ensuring thorough rinsing while realizing the recycling of the rinse water.
