Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of food additive production equipment, and more specifically, to a horizontal mixing equipment for mixing food additives. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, food additives refer to chemically synthesized or natural substances added to food to improve its quality, color, aroma, and flavor, as well as for preservation and processing needs. Due to the rapid development of the food industry, food additives have become an important component of modern food production and a significant driving force for technological progress and innovation within the food industry.
[0003] In the production process of food additives, it is necessary to mix the ingredients of powdered food additives. Traditionally, a powder mixer is used to mix the food additives. After the powder mixer is mixed, the powder is discharged through the feeding structure. This results in the material at the bottom not being fully mixed, which leads to uneven mixing. In addition, the powder is discharged slowly after mixing and is prone to clogging. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above deficiencies, this application provides a horizontal mixing device for mixing food additives, which aims to improve the problem that powders deposited at the bottom are difficult to mix fully, resulting in uneven mixing.

[0007] The screening mechanism is installed at the upper end of the mixing silo, the discharge end of the hopper is connected to the screening inlet of the screening mechanism, and a slag discharge hopper for slag discharge by the screening mechanism is installed at one end of the mixing silo.
[0008] The mixing mechanism includes a rotating rod, a stirring blade, and a pushing auger. The end of the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the mixing bin.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a support frame is fixed at the bottom of the mixing silo, and a cover plate is provided at the top of the support frame. The cover plate is sealed and snapped onto the upper port of the mixing silo.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the screening mechanism includes a screen plate, a rotating shaft, and a baffle. The screen plate is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and multiple screen plates are provided. The multiple screen plates are arranged at equal angles around the rotating shaft. The baffle is fixed to the end of the rotating shaft, and the end of the rotating shaft is rotatably installed on the upper end of the mixing bin.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer end of the screen plate is bent and connected to the end of the discharge port of the hopper, the slag discharge hopper is disposed on one side of the screen plate, and the mixing bin is equipped with a servo motor for driving the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0016] Beneficial Effects: This application provides a horizontal mixing equipment for food additives. Powder is poured into a hopper, and a sieving mechanism separates lumps and other particles. Powder meeting specifications is introduced into a mixing tank, while non-compliant materials are collected through a slag discharge hopper for subsequent processing. A forward-reverse motor rotates in the forward direction, driving a rotating rod to mix the powder in the mixing tank. Simultaneously, a pusher auger rotates, pushing material deposited at the bottom into a feeding cylinder. The feeding auger then pushes the bottom material to the discharge pipe, allowing it to fall to the top of the mixing tank, achieving vertical material circulation. The pusher auger's movement also facilitates horizontal material circulation, resulting in more thorough and uniform mixing. After uniform mixing, the forward-reverse motor rotates in the reverse direction, opening the discharge port. The pusher auger then pushes the material in the opposite direction through the discharge port, ensuring stable discharge without blockage and facilitating the collection of uniformly mixed material. The pusher auger serves both material circulation and feeding / pushing functions; its multi-functional design simplifies equipment components and reduces operating costs. Attached Figure Description
