AI Technical Summary
Existing gluten production equipment, when mixing dough and water through high-speed spiral extrusion, damages the gluten's network structure, resulting in insufficient contact between starch and water, which affects product quality.
The rotating shaft inside the cylinder drives the sliding rod and the rolling component. The dough is repeatedly kneaded by the kneading mechanism to fully mix the dough with water. The periodic descent and ascent of the rolling component is achieved by the return spring and the convex structure. Combined with the extrusion of the arc plate, the starch is effectively washed out.
This process ensures thorough mixing of dough and water, improves gluten processing efficiency and product quality, guarantees full contact between starch and water, and avoids damage to the network structure.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0027] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a mixing device for gluten production includes a cylinder 101, a rotating shaft 302 coaxially rotatably connected inside the cylinder 101, and a power assembly between the rotating shaft 302 and the cylinder 101.
[0028] The rotating shaft 302 is provided with a kneading mechanism, which includes multiple fixed plates 401. The multiple fixed plates 401 are evenly distributed around the rotating shaft 302. A sliding rod 402 is slidably connected to one end of the fixed plate 401 away from the rotating shaft 302. A rolling component is provided at the lower end of the sliding rod 402.
[0029] A stop 404 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding rod 402. Multiple protrusions 405 are fixedly connected to the top wall of the cylinder 101. The multiple protrusions 405 are evenly distributed around the circumference of the rotating shaft 302. The distance from the protrusions 405 to the rotating shaft 302 is equal to the distance from the stop 404 to the rotating shaft 302. A return spring 403 is sleeved on the sliding rod 402. The return spring 403 is located between the stop 404 and the fixed plate 401. The rotating shaft 302 drives the sliding rod 402 to rotate through the fixed plate 401. When the sliding rod 402 rotates around the rotating shaft 302, the stop 404 slides on the protrusions 405, causing the sliding rod 402 to slide with the fixed plate 401, pushing the rolling component down to knead the dough. Then the stop 404 disengages from the protrusions 405, causing the return spring 403 to return to its original shape and drive the rolling component to rise, thereby realizing repeated kneading of the dough, so that the dough and water are fully mixed and the starch in the dough is washed out.
[0030] The kneading assembly includes a second pressing block 501, which is fixedly installed at the lower end of the sliding rod 402. A first pressing block 502 is slidably connected to the lower end of the second pressing block 501. A connecting spring 503 is fixedly connected between the second pressing block 501 and the first pressing block 502. When the sliding rod 402 pushes the second pressing block 501 down, the first pressing block 502 first squeezes the dough. As the sliding rod 402 continues to descend, the second pressing block 501 squeezes the dough. At this time, the connecting spring 503 is compressed, thereby expanding the kneading area.
[0031] Multiple fixing rods 601 are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 302. The fixing rods 601 are evenly distributed around the circumference of the rotating shaft 302. An arc plate 602 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing rod 601 away from the rotating shaft 302. The lower end of the arc plate 602 abuts against the bottom wall of the cylinder 101. The rotating shaft 302 drives the fixing rods 601 to rotate, and at the same time the arc plate 602 squeezes the dough toward the rotating shaft 302, thereby improving the gluten processing efficiency.
[0032] The power assembly includes a power motor 301, which is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cylinder 101. The output shaft of the power motor 301 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 302, and the power motor 301 drives the rotating shaft 302 to rotate.
[0033] A feeding hopper 201 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the cylinder 101 away from the power motor 301. A cover 202 is hinged to the upper end of the feeding hopper 201. When in use, the cover 202 is opened so that the dough enters the cylinder 101 through the feeding hopper 201.
[0034] A water inlet pipe 103 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the cylinder 101. The water inlet pipe 103 is located on the side of the power motor 301 away from the feed hopper 201, and the brine mixture is transported into the cylinder 101 through the water inlet pipe 103.
[0035] An observation window 102 is provided at the front end of the cylinder 101, and a glass is fixedly installed inside the observation window 102.
[0036] Working principle: When in use, the lid 202 is opened, allowing the dough to enter the cylinder 101 through the feed hopper 201. The brine mixture is then conveyed into the cylinder 101 through the water inlet pipe 103. Subsequently, the motor 301 drives the rotating shaft 302 to rotate. The rotating shaft 302, through the fixed plate 401, drives the sliding rod 402 to rotate. As the sliding rod 402 rotates around the rotating shaft 302, the abutment 404 slides on the protrusion 405, causing the sliding rod 402 to slide against the fixed plate 401. When the sliding rod 402 pushes the second pressing block 501 down, the first pressing block... First, the dough is squeezed by the sliding rod 402. As the sliding rod 402 continues to descend, the second pressing block 501 squeezes the dough. At this time, the connecting spring 503 is compressed, thereby expanding the kneading area. Then, the abutment 404 disengages from the protrusion 405, causing the return spring 403 to recover its deformation and drive the rolling component to rise. This allows the dough to be repeatedly kneaded, so that the dough and water are fully mixed and the starch in the dough is washed out. At the same time, the rotating shaft 302 drives the fixed rod 601 to rotate, and the arc plate 602 squeezes the dough towards the rotating shaft 302, improving the gluten processing efficiency.
