Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fragrance processing technology, specifically to a stirrer for fragrance production. Background Technology
[0002] Flavorings, as a special highly concentrated additive that can affect the taste and flavor of food, have been widely used in various fields of food production. They can compensate for the aroma defects of food itself. However, flavorings are formed by fully and evenly mixing a variety of spices or flavorings. The physicochemical properties and physical states of various spices are different. Some are very viscous, some are blocky solids, some are powders, some have high density, and some have low density. Therefore, when preparing flavorings, it is necessary to use a stirrer to mix a variety of spices. Nowadays, there are many types of such stirrers on the market, which can basically meet people's needs. However, there are still some shortcomings. The stirring paddle structure of existing stirrers is relatively simple. In particular, the flavoring material at the bottom of the container is difficult to be stirred, resulting in uneven flavoring ratios after stirring, which reduces the quality of product preparation.
[0003] As prior art, Chinese utility model patent CN221965090U specifically discloses a flavoring mixer. This flavoring mixer, through the coordinated use of a transmission wheel and drive disc, as well as a reset disc and reset torsion spring, enables the flavoring mixer to mix flavoring raw materials. The drive motor operates and drives the stirring shaft and stirring rod to rotate within the mixing container via the transmission at the docking end. Simultaneously, a second motor operates and drives the drive disc to rotate via its drive shaft. A protrusion on the outside of the drive disc pushes the transmission wheel to rotate, and the transmission wheel, through a connecting shaft, causes the entire mixing container to deflect. After the protrusion on the outside of the drive disc leaves the groove on the transmission wheel, the mixing container resets under the elastic force of the reset torsion spring, achieving repeated shaking of the mixing container. This, combined with the stirring shaft and stirring rod, ensures the flavoring raw materials in the mixing container are mixed evenly, guaranteeing the mixing effect of the flavoring mixer.
[0004] The flavoring mixer with this configuration has low overall structural stability. Prolonged shaking can easily cause parts to loosen, thereby increasing the risk of injury to workers. Furthermore, the heating structure is not convenient for heating various flavorings during the production process, resulting in a decrease in the quality of the produced flavorings and low practicality. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the problems with the stability and reliability of existing flavoring mixers, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a mixer for flavoring production. This mixer has high overall structural stability and can effectively solve the problems in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A stirrer for flavor production includes a stirring tank and a lid located on top of the stirring tank. A locking assembly is provided at the opening at the top of the stirring tank. The lid is located on the side of the stirring tank away from the support feet. A mounting groove is fixedly installed on the side of the lid near the stirring tank. A sealing strip is provided on the outer side of the mounting groove. A drive motor is fixedly installed at the center of the top of the lid. The output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to a stirring shaft. A guide groove is provided at the top of the stirring shaft. A locking screw is provided on the outer side of the stirring shaft. A main stirring blade and a secondary stirring blade are fixedly installed on the outer side of the stirring shaft. A connecting seat that is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner side of the stirring tank is rotatably installed on the bottom of the stirring shaft.
[0008] The locking assembly includes a first fixed seat, a second fixed seat, a rotating shaft, a threaded locking rod, and a locking ring. The first fixed seat is fixedly installed on the outer side of the top of the mixing tank, and the second fixed seat is fixedly installed on the outer side of the tank cover near the mixing tank. The rotating shaft is fixedly installed on the inner side of the first fixed seat. The threaded locking rod is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft, and the locking ring is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded locking rod.
[0009] Preferably, a cavity is provided between the inner wall and the outer wall of the mixing tank, an electric heating tube is provided on the inner side of the cavity, a support foot is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mixing tank, an inlet pipe and a feed port are fixedly installed on the side of the tank cover away from the mixing tank, and a discharge port is provided at the bottom of the mixing tank.
[0010] The above technical solution, by setting an electric heating tube, makes it easy to keep the fragrance at a comfortable temperature during the stirring process, thereby improving the stirring efficiency. By setting support feet, it is easy to provide stable support force when the mixer is working, thereby improving safety. By setting a liquid inlet pipe, it is easy to add the required mixture during the stirring process.
[0011] Preferably, the sealing strip is made of rubber, and there are three identical sets of sealing strips, which are distributed at equal distances within the mounting groove.
[0012] Through the above technical solution, the rubber sealing strip has good sealing performance. By installing multiple sets of sealing strips in the installation groove, the sealing effect of the device can be effectively improved, avoiding leakage of internal gas during the fragrance stirring process, which would lead to the volatilization of fragrance aroma and reduce fragrance quality.
[0013] Preferably, the electric heating tubes are provided in two sets, upper and lower, with the two sets of electric heating tubes arranged in a ring within the cavity.
[0014] By using the above technical solution, and by setting the electric heating tubes into two sets, upper and lower, the contact area between the electric heating tubes and the inner wall of the mixing tank can be effectively increased, thereby improving the heating efficiency.
[0015] Preferably, the guide groove has the same cross-section as the output shaft of the drive motor, and the stirring shaft and the drive motor are connected by a plug-in joint.
[0016] The above technical solution, with its plug-in installation design for the stirring shaft and drive motor, facilitates quick disassembly of the stirring shaft and drive motor, enabling staff to quickly replace the stirring components according to different flavor characteristics, thus improving the practicality of the device.
[0017] Preferably, the main stirring blades and the auxiliary stirring blades are arranged vertically downwards on the stirring shaft.
[0018] By using the above technical solution, and by arranging the main stirring blade and the auxiliary stirring blade vertically downwards in sequence, the main stirring blade and the auxiliary stirring blade can simultaneously stir from the top and bottom during the stirring process. This effectively breaks up the stratification, ensures uniform mixing of the components, achieves the target mixing effect more quickly, reduces stirring time, and improves production efficiency.
[0019] Preferably, the locking components are provided in six identical sets, and the six sets of locking components are located at equal distances in a ring on the top of the mixing tank.
[0020] The above technical solution, through the threaded connection between the threaded locking rod and the locking ring, allows workers to quickly lock the tank lid to the mixing tank. After mixing, the tank lid can be opened without the need for external tools, thus improving work efficiency.
[0021] Preferably, a delivery pump is provided on the outside of the mixing tank, a delivery pipe is connected to the top of the delivery pump, and an annular pipe fitted to the top of the inner wall of the mixing tank is connected to the other end of the delivery pipe. A nozzle is provided on the outside of the annular pipe, and the end of the nozzle is inclined towards the inner wall of the mixing tank.
[0022] The above technical solution, through the combined use of a delivery pump, delivery pipe, annular pipe, and nozzle, facilitates cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing tank after mixing. The delivery pump operates and inputs water into the annular pipe through the delivery pipe, which is then sprayed out through the nozzle, acting on the inner wall of the mixing container. Combined with the rotation of the mixing shaft, this achieves cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing tank, ensuring effective cleaning and making subsequent maintenance more convenient. It eliminates the need for frequent replacement of cleaning parts and reduces maintenance costs.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the stirrer for flavor production provided by this utility model has the following advantages:
[0024] Beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. This stirrer for flavor production allows for the detachable installation of the stirring shaft and drive motor, enabling operators to quickly change stirring components according to different flavor characteristics. Furthermore, by setting the main stirring blade and the auxiliary stirring blade vertically downwards in sequence, the main stirring blade and the auxiliary stirring blade can simultaneously stir from the top and bottom during the stirring process, effectively breaking up stratification, ensuring uniform mixing of ingredients, achieving the target mixing effect faster, and improving production efficiency.
[0026] 2. This stirrer for fragrance production, by setting two sets of annular electric heating tubes inside the cavity, can effectively increase the contact area between the electric heating tubes and the inner wall of the stirring tank, thereby increasing its heating efficiency. It is convenient to keep the fragrances at a comfortable temperature during the stirring process of various fragrances, thereby improving the quality of fragrance production. It is highly practical.
[0027] 3. This stirrer for flavor production, through the threaded connection between the threaded locking rod and the locking ring, allows workers to quickly lock the lid to the stirring tank.

Detailed Implementation
[0037] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.
[0038] Example 1:
[0039] like Figure 1-2 As shown, this example illustrates the configuration of a stirrer for flavor production.
[0040] Based on the illustration, the stirrer for flavor production mainly includes a stirring tank 1 and a lid 6 located on top of the stirring tank 1. A locking component 5 is provided at the opening at the top of the stirring tank 1. The lid 6 is located on the side of the stirring tank 1 away from the support foot 4. An installation groove 7 is fixedly installed on the side of the lid 6 close to the stirring tank 1. A sealing strip 8 is provided on the outside of the installation groove 7. A drive motor 11 is fixedly installed at the center of the top of the lid 6. The output shaft of the drive motor 11 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 12. A guide groove 13 is provided at the top of the stirring shaft 12. A locking screw 14 is provided on the outside of the stirring shaft 12. A main stirring blade 19 and a secondary stirring blade 20 are fixedly installed on the outside of the stirring shaft 12. A connecting seat 21 that is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner side of the stirring tank 1 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the stirring shaft 12.
[0041] Combination Figure 2 and 3 As shown, a cavity 2 is provided between the inner wall and the outer wall of the mixing tank 1 in this mixer. An electric heating tube 3 is provided inside the cavity 2. A support foot 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mixing tank 1. An inlet pipe 9 and a feed port 10 are fixedly installed on the side of the tank cover 6 away from the mixing tank 1. A discharge port 22 is provided at the bottom of the mixing tank 1.
[0042] This configuration, with the electric heating tube 3, allows the fragrance to be kept at a comfortable temperature during the stirring process, thereby improving stirring efficiency. The support feet 4 provide stable support during the operation of the mixer, improving safety. The liquid inlet pipe 9 facilitates the addition of the required mixture during the stirring process.
[0043] Further integration Figure 4 As shown, the sealing strip 8 in this mixer is made of rubber. There are three identical sets of sealing strips 8, which are distributed at equal distances within the mounting groove 7.
[0044] With this configuration, the rubber sealing strip 8 has good sealing performance. By installing multiple sets of sealing strips 8 in the mounting groove 7, the sealing effect of the device can be effectively improved, preventing the leakage of internal gas during the fragrance stirring process, which would lead to the volatilization of fragrance aroma and reduce the quality of fragrance.
[0045] Further integration Figure 3 As shown, the electric heating tube 3 is provided in two sets, upper and lower, and the two sets of electric heating tubes 3 are distributed in a ring inside the cavity 2.
[0046] This configuration, with the electric heating tubes 3 arranged in two groups (upper and lower), effectively increases the contact area between the electric heating tubes 3 and the inner wall of the mixing tank 1, thereby improving heating efficiency.
[0047] Example 2:
[0048] This example provides a further specific improvement scheme based on the scheme in Embodiment 1.
[0049] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in this example, the guide groove 13 is designed to be compatible with the output shaft section of the drive motor 11, and the stirring shaft 12 is designed to be plugged into the drive motor 11.
[0050] This design, with the stirring shaft 12 and the drive motor 11 being plug-in connected, facilitates quick disassembly of the stirring shaft 12 and the drive motor 11, allowing staff to quickly replace the stirring components according to different flavor characteristics, thus improving the practicality of the device.
[0051] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, in this example, the main stirring blade 19 and the auxiliary stirring blade 20 are preferably arranged vertically downwards on the stirring shaft 12.
[0052] With this configuration, by arranging the main stirring blade 19 and the auxiliary stirring blade 20 vertically downwards, the main stirring blade 19 and the auxiliary stirring blade 20 can simultaneously stir from the top and bottom during the stirring process, effectively breaking up the stratification, ensuring uniform mixing of the ingredients, achieving the target mixing effect faster, reducing stirring time, and improving production efficiency.
[0053] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the specific structure of the locking assembly 5 is given in this example. Based on the figure, the locking assembly 5 includes a first fixing seat 501, a second fixing seat 502, a rotating shaft 503, a threaded locking rod 504, and a locking ring 505; wherein, the first fixing seat 501 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the top of the mixing tank 1, the second fixing seat 502 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the tank cover 6 near the mixing tank 1, the rotating shaft 503 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the first fixing seat 501, the threaded locking rod 504 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 503, and the locking ring 505 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded locking rod 504.
[0054] Furthermore, in this example, six identical sets of locking components 5 are provided, and the six sets of locking components 5 are located at equal distances in a ring on the top of the mixing tank 1.
[0055] With this configuration, the threaded connection between the threaded locking rod 504 and the locking ring 505 allows workers to quickly lock the lid 6 to the mixing tank 1. After mixing, the lid 6 can be opened without the need for external tools, thus improving work efficiency.
[0056] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, a delivery pump 15 is provided on the outside of the mixing tank 1. A delivery pipe 16 is connected to the top of the delivery pump 15. The other end of the delivery pipe 16 is connected to an annular pipe 17 fitted to the top of the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. A nozzle 18 is provided on the outside of the annular pipe 17. The end of the nozzle 18 is inclined toward the inner wall of the mixing tank 1.
[0057] With this configuration, the combined use of the delivery pump 15, delivery pipe 16, annular pipe 17, and nozzle 18 facilitates cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing tank 1 after mixing. The delivery pump 15 operates and inputs water through the delivery pipe 16 into the annular pipe 17, which is then sprayed out through the nozzle 18. This water acts on the inner wall of the mixing container, working in conjunction with the rotation of the mixing shaft 12 to achieve cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. This ensures effective cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing container and makes subsequent maintenance more convenient, eliminating the need for frequent replacement of cleaning parts and reducing maintenance costs.
[0058] Regarding the stirrer solution for flavor production given in the above example, its operation process will be explained in detail below with reference to the corresponding attached figures.
[0059] Combination Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the stirrer used for flavor production is designed to be plugged into the stirring shaft 12 and the drive motor 11, which allows the operator to quickly install the stirring shaft 12 and the drive motor 11. The stirring shaft 12 and the drive motor 11 are then fixed together by the locking screw 14. The detachable installation of the stirring shaft 12 and the drive motor 11 allows the operator to quickly change the stirring components according to different flavor characteristics, thus improving the practicality of the device.
[0060] Then, the lid 6 is closed to the mixing tank 1. The sealing of the device is effectively improved by the rubber sealing strips 8 that are set at equal intervals in the mounting groove 7, which prevents the leakage of internal gas during the fragrance mixing process, thereby causing the fragrance aroma to evaporate and reducing the quality of the fragrance.
[0061] When closing the lid 6 to the mixing tank 1, the operator rotates the threaded locking rod 504 and the locking ring 505 to the top of the lid 6, and then rotates the locking ring 505 until it fits against the fixing seat 502. After mixing, the lid 6 can be opened without the need for external tools, which improves work efficiency.
[0062] At startup, various spices are poured into the mixing tank 1 through the feed inlet 10. Then, the drive motor 11 is started, and the output shaft of the drive motor 11 drives the stirring shaft 12 to rotate. By setting the main stirring blade 19 and the auxiliary stirring blade 20 to be arranged vertically downwards, the main stirring blade 19 and the auxiliary stirring blade 20 can be stirred from the top and bottom at the same time during the stirring process, effectively breaking up the stratification, ensuring uniform mixing of the ingredients, achieving the target mixing effect faster, reducing stirring time, and improving production efficiency.
[0063] Based on this, by setting the electric heating tube 3 into two groups, upper and lower, the contact area between the electric heating tube 3 and the inner wall of the mixing tank 1 can be effectively increased, thereby improving the heating efficiency.
[0064] After the mixing is completed, the staff can open the discharge port 22 to discharge the mixed flavoring. Then, the staff can turn on the delivery pump 15, which will operate and input water into the annular pipe 17 through the delivery pipe 16. The water is then sprayed out through the nozzle 18 and acts on the inner wall of the mixing container. In conjunction with the rotation of the stirring shaft 12, the inner wall of the mixing tank 1 is cleaned. This not only ensures the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the mixing container, but also makes subsequent maintenance more convenient, eliminating the need for frequent replacement of cleaning parts and reducing maintenance costs.
[0065] 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.
