Description

Technical Field

[0002] A food additive preparation device is a piece of equipment used to mix, dissolve, and blend various food additives according to specific proportions and requirements. It can ensure that food additives are evenly dispersed in food, thereby improving the color, flavor, taste, shelf life and other properties of food, while also improving production efficiency and product quality stability.

[0003] In the preparation of food additives, thickeners are usually prepared by mixing powdered solids with liquids. This is because powdered thickeners are easier to disperse and dissolve in liquids, thus better exerting their thickening effect. For example, common thickeners such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, agar, and xanthan gum are supplied in powder form. In practice, powdered thickeners are usually slowly sprinkled on the surface of the liquid to reduce the formation of lumps and agglomerates. This mixing method not only improves the uniformity of thickener dispersion but also ensures the quality and stability of the final product.

[0004] In existing food additive preparation devices, after the food additives are prepared, some food additives, such as thickeners, will exhibit a certain viscosity. Due to their relatively poor fluidity, when it is necessary to remove the prepared thickeners from the device, the difficulty of removal and the time required will increase.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application.

Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-8 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0030] A food additive preparation device includes a base plate 1, a support frame 2, and a servo motor 3. A mixing cylinder assembly 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the main shaft of the servo motor 3. A stirring assembly 6 is installed inside the mixing cylinder assembly 5. The mixing cylinder assembly 5 includes a folded plate 51. An electric telescopic rod 52 and a limiting telescopic rod 53 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the folded plate 51. A fixing post 54 and a stirring cylinder shell 55 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the folded plate 51. A limiting insertion hole 56 is provided at the upper end of the stirring cylinder shell 55. An insertion post 59 is inserted into the inner side of the limiting insertion hole 56. The top end of the insertion post 59 is fixedly connected to... The stirring assembly 6 includes a stepper motor 61 with a cover plate 58. A movable disk 62 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the housing of the stepper motor 61. A central rotating column 63 is fixedly connected to the end of the main shaft of the stepper motor 61. A fixed pad 64 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the central rotating column 63. A movable pad 65 is sleeved on the outer side of the central rotating column 63. An arc-shaped plate 66 is inserted into the fixed pad 64. A stirring blade 67 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the arc-shaped plate 66. Anti-detachment columns 68 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the arc-shaped plate 66. A silicone ring 69 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the movable disk 62.

[0031] As a further implementation of this scheme, a receiving bucket 4 is placed on the upper end of the base plate 1, and a support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. There are two supports 2, which are distributed on the left and right sides of the mixing drum assembly 5. The left support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the housing of the servo motor 3. A shaft hole is opened on the inner side of the support frame 2, and the inner side of the shaft hole of the support frame 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed column 54 through the bearing. The end of the main shaft of the servo motor 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed column 54. Through the above settings, a stable support foundation is provided for the subsequent rotation operation, ensuring the stability of the device during operation. At the same time, the fixed column 54 can be rotated by the servo motor 3, so that the mixing drum assembly 5 and the stirring assembly 6 rotate as a whole, which facilitates the removal of the additives inside the stirring drum shell 55.

[0032] As a further implementation of this solution, the top ends of the electric telescopic rod 52 and the limiting telescopic rod 53 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the moving disk 62. A mixing groove 57 is opened on the inner side of the mixing drum shell 55. The mixing component 6 is embedded in the inner side of the mixing groove 57. The outer side of the silicone ring 69 is in close contact with the inner side of the mixing groove 57. With the above settings, the mixing component 6 can be moved as a whole by the electric telescopic rod 52. The silicone ring 69 can play a good sealing role to prevent raw material leakage. At the same time, when the thickener is discharged, the silicone ring 69 can scrape off the finished additives on the inner wall of the mixing drum shell 55, which improves the discharge efficiency of the thickener, reduces residue, and ensures the high efficiency of the preparation and discharge process.

[0033] As a further implementation of this solution, a sleeve is installed at the bottom of the cover plate 58, and a bearing is fixedly connected to the inner side of the sleeve of the cover plate 58. The central rotating column 63 is inserted into the inner side of the sleeve of the cover plate 58, and the sleeve of the cover plate 58 is rotatably connected to the central rotating column 63 through the bearing. With the above settings, this design ensures the smooth operation of the stirring components during the preparation process and improves the uniformity of the thickener preparation.

[0034] As a further implementation of this solution, a through hole is provided on the inner side of the moving disk 62, and a sealing ring is fixed in the through hole on the inner side of the moving disk 62. The main shaft of the stepper motor 61 extends out of the upper end of the moving disk 62, and the sealing ring inside the moving disk 62 fits against the outer side of the main shaft of the stepper motor 61. Through the above settings, the sealing between the main shaft of the stepper motor 61 and the moving disk 62 is effectively guaranteed, preventing raw material leakage.

[0035] As a further implementation of this solution, both the fixed pad 64 and the movable pad 65 have insertion holes on their inner sides. Anti-detachment columns 68 are inserted into the insertion holes of both the movable disk 62 and the movable pad 65. The inner side of the arc-shaped plate 66 is fitted against the outer side of the central rotating column 63. There are two arc-shaped plates 66 and two stirring blades 67, with the two arc-shaped plates 66 tightly fitted together. Threaded holes are provided on the inner sides of the central rotating column 63 and the movable pad 65. The movable pad 65 is fixedly connected to the central rotating column 63 by bolts. This design allows for easy installation and removal of the arc-shaped plate 66 and the stirring blades 67, facilitating cleaning and maintenance of the stirring components and avoiding component damage and hygiene problems caused by thickener residue. Simultaneously, the threaded hole and bolt connection method ensures the robustness between components, guaranteeing the stability of the device during operation.

[0036] Workflow: When preparing thickener-type food additives, first place the food additives into the mixing tank 57. Activate the electric telescopic rod 52 to push the mixing assembly 6 upwards. At this time, the limiting telescopic rod 53 extends, improving the stability of the mixing assembly 6 during movement. The central rotating column 63 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 58, and the central rotating column 63 also drives the cover plate 58 upwards. The insert column 59 disengages from the limiting insertion hole 56. Once a certain gap exists between the cover plate 58 and the mixing drum shell 55, then... The raw materials are placed inside the mixing tank 57, which is the upper end of the moving plate 62. Then the stirring component 6 is reset, and the insert pin 59 is aligned with the limiting socket 56 so that the insert pin 59 is inserted into the limiting socket 56. The limiting of the insert pin 59 and the limiting socket 56 can improve the stability of the additive stirring. When stirring the raw materials inside the mixing tank 57, the stepper motor 61 is started to drive the central rotating column 63 to rotate. The central rotating column 63 drives the arc plate 66 and the stirring blade 67 to rotate, thereby facilitating the preparation of thickener-type food additives.

[0037] After the thickener is prepared, due to its viscosity, it is difficult to remove it using ordinary feeding methods. The receiving bucket 4 is placed in a designated position. At this time, the servo motor 3 is activated to rotate the fixed column 54, which is rotatably connected to the inside of the upright frame 2. The fixed column 54 drives the mixing drum assembly 5 and the stirring assembly 6 to rotate as a whole. When the mixing drum assembly 5 rotates to a certain angle, it is tilted. Then, following the same principle, the electric telescopic rod 52 is activated, causing the stirring assembly 6 to move away from the electric telescopic rod 52. At this time, the cover plate 58 opens, and the thickener gradually flows from the mixing tank 57 into the receiving bucket 4. While maintaining the extension of the electric telescopic rod 52, as the moving disc 62 moves, the outer side of the silicone ring 69 is tightly attached to the inner wall of the mixing tank 57, thus providing a seal. Simultaneously, the silicone ring 69 scrapes off the additives on the inner wall of the mixing drum shell 55, allowing the additives inside the mixing tank 57 to quickly flow into the receiving bucket 4. After the additives inside the mixing tank 57 are scraped off, the moving disc 62 is located at the edge of the mixing drum shell 55, while the stirring blade 67 is located outside the mixing drum shell 55. By disassembling the moving pad 65 and moving it away from the arc plate 66, and then moving the anti-detachment column 68 fixed to the arc plate 66 away from the inside of the fixing pad 64, the arc plate 66 and the stirring blade 67 can be removed separately. This makes it convenient to remove the additives adhering to the arc plate 66 and the stirring blade 67, and also makes it convenient to clean the arc plate 66 and the stirring blade 67. The central rotating column 63 is located outside the mixing drum shell 55, which makes it easy to observe when cleaning the central rotating column 63 and improves the convenience of cleaning.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
