[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution for a proportioning and mixing device for beverage processing: The proportioning and mixing device for beverage processing includes a mixing tank 1. At least one set of quantitative feeding mechanisms is provided along the circumference of the tank body of the mixing tank 1, and at least one set of liquid injection valves 2 are provided on the tank body of the mixing tank 1 through the staggered quantitative feeding mechanisms. Liquid raw materials required for beverage proportioning and mixing are pre-injected into the mixing tank 1 through the liquid injection valves 2. Then, solid raw materials are quantitatively fed into the mixing tank 1 according to the order of addition through the quantitative feeding mechanisms to perform proportioning and mixing between the solid and liquid phases. Specifically:

[0021] The quantitative feeding mechanism includes a feeding cylinder 4 circumferentially arranged on the mixing tank 1 along the brake shaft 8. One end of the feeding cylinder 4 is provided with a feeding hopper 3, and the other end of the feeding cylinder 4 is provided with a discharge pipe 14. The inside of the feeding cylinder 4 is provided with a conveying shaft 16, and the conveying shaft 16 is provided with a screw conveyor 15 along its axial direction. One end of the conveying shaft 16 is provided with an intermittent transmission component. Solid beverage raw materials are fed into the feeding hopper 3. By controlling the rotation of the screw conveyor 15 using the conveying shaft 16, the solid raw materials are fed into the mixing tank 1 through the discharge pipe 14 in a quantitative screw push manner for mixing.

[0022] It should be noted that the intermittent transmission assembly includes a linkage shaft 17 located at one end of the conveying shaft 16 and a second bevel gear 22 located at the top of the brake shaft 8. An electric push rod 18 is located below the linkage shaft 17. A support ring 20 is located at the telescopic end of the electric push rod 18. The support ring 20 has a bearing seat with a linkage sleeve 19 that surrounds the linkage shaft 17. A first bevel gear 21 is located on one side of the linkage sleeve 19. The linkage shaft 17 has a prismatic shaft structure, and the linkage shaft 17 and the linkage sleeve 19 are slidably connected. When feeding solid beverages, the feeding time can be adjusted according to the feeding period of the solid beverage. The electric push rod 18 is controlled to extend and retract for braking. By combining the support shaft ring 20 and the linkage shaft sleeve 19, the first bevel gear 21 is pushed to the second bevel gear 22 and meshes, forming a meshing transmission state. The meshing force is converted into torque force and transmitted to the linkage shaft 17, which drives the screw conveyor 15 on the conveying shaft 16 to rotate, feeding solid raw materials into the mixing tank 1 as needed and in the required quantity. After the quantitative feeding is completed, the electric push rod 18 is controlled to reset, which releases the braking feeding state. It has good intermittent demand linkage characteristics, and while the feeding linkage is higher, the feeding supply demand is more flexible.

[0023] As a further embodiment of this invention, the mixing tank 1 is provided with a brake shaft 8 inside the tank body to drive the quantitative feeding mechanism. The brake shaft 8 is provided with a first stirring paddle 7 built into the bottom of the mixing tank 1 along its axial direction. The bottom of the mixing tank 1 is provided with a brake motor 6 to drive the brake shaft 8. By controlling the brake motor 6 to work, the brake shaft 8 is driven to rotate. On the one hand, the second bevel gear 22 is driven to rotate, serving as the driving source of the quantitative feeding mechanism. On the other hand, the first stirring paddle 7 is driven to rotate, so as to stir and mix the beverage raw materials in the mixing tank 1.

[0024] Furthermore, the brake shaft 8 is provided with a rotating frame 11 built into the top of the mixing tank 1 along its axial direction. The top of the support of the rotating frame 11 is provided with at least one set of transmission shafts 9, and the transmission shafts 9 are provided with at least one set of second stirring paddles 10 along their axial direction. The top of the transmission shaft 9 is provided with a transmission gear 12. The interior of the mixing tank 1 is provided with a transmission gear disk 13 that meshes with the transmission gear 12. While the brake shaft 8 drives the first stirring paddle 7 to rotate, it simultaneously drives the rotating frame 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission shaft 9 to rotate circumferentially along the brake shaft 8, pushing the second stirring paddle 10 to rotate circumferentially. At the same time as the transmission shaft 9 rotates, the transmission gear 12 on the transmission shaft 9 meshes with the transmission gear disk 13 to drive the transmission shaft 9 to rotate on its own axis. This allows the second stirring paddle 10 to rotate circumferentially while maintaining its own rotation, thus performing a second stirring and mixing operation on the beverage raw materials in the mixing tank 1.

[0025] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the beverage is being mixed, the brake motor 6 is controlled to work, driving the brake shaft 8 to rotate. On the one hand, the first stirring paddle 7 rotates to stir and mix the beverage ingredients in the mixing tank 1. On the other hand, the rotating frame 11 rotates, pushing the transmission shaft 9 on the rotating frame 11 to rotate circumferentially. This causes the transmission gear 12 on the transmission shaft 9 to mesh with the transmission gear disc 13, driving the transmission shaft 9 to rotate on its own axis. This causes the second stirring paddle 10 to rotate circumferentially while maintaining its own rotation, thus stirring and mixing the beverage ingredients in the mixing tank 1 again, thereby improving the diversity and completeness of the beverage ingredients.

[0026] Furthermore, the liquid raw materials required for beverage mixing are pre-injected into the mixing tank 1 through the injection valve 2, and the solid beverage raw materials are simultaneously fed into the feeding hopper 3. According to the feeding time of the solid beverage, the electric push rod 18 is controlled to extend and retract, and the combination of the support shaft ring 20 and the linkage shaft sleeve 19 is used to push the first bevel gear 21 to the second bevel gear 22 and mesh to form a meshing transmission state. The meshing force is converted into torque force and transmitted to the linkage shaft 17, which drives the screw conveyor auger 15 on the conveying shaft 16 to rotate. The solid raw materials are fed into the mixing tank 1 through the discharge pipe 14 in a quantitative screw push manner for mixing. After the quantitative feeding is completed, the electric push rod 18 is controlled to reset, and the braking feeding state is released, realizing the quantitative and demand-based supply of solid beverage. After the subsequent beverage mixing is completed, the beverage is discharged through the discharge port 5.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model are implemented according to conventional methods in the art, unless otherwise specified or limited.
