Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of microwave equipment technology, and in particular relates to a microwave processing device for brown rice milling. Background Technology
[0002] Brown rice has a hard outer layer rich in fiber, which prevents water from fully contacting the starch inside during cooking, hindering starch gelatinization and resulting in a hard texture. By slightly disrupting the outer layer structure of brown rice through milling, combined with microwave treatment to induce strong water diffusion within the brown rice, the tightly packed starch granules are broken down, forming cracks or gaps. This provides a suitable pathway for water to penetrate the brown rice grains, improving the taste and quality of the brown rice.
[0003] To better mill brown rice, it is often pre-treated with microwave equipment. However, brown rice contains a lot of debris. After passing through the conveyor belt of the microwave equipment, this debris cannot be directly fed into the conveyor belt and will remain on the surface of the conveyor belt, causing an irregular layer of impurities to form on the surface of the conveyor belt. This affects the subsequent microwave treatment effect of the brown rice and reduces the quality of the brown rice.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a microwave processing device for brown rice milling. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a microwave processing device for brown rice milling, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model is a microwave processing device for brown rice milling, including a microwave device and a conveyor belt, as well as a feeding mechanism at the right end of the microwave device;
[0008] The feeding mechanism is equipped with a detachable fixed seat. A feeding hopper is fixedly connected between the front and rear plates of the fixed seat. It has two openings, left and right. The left opening corresponds to the conveyor belt, and the right opening corresponds to the storage part at the right end of the microwave equipment. A controllable switch mechanism is provided at the right opening of the feeding hopper.
[0009] The bottom plate of the hopper has a first scraper extending upward from the left end, which abuts against the right arc-shaped surface of the conveyor belt. A storage box is detachably installed above the bottom plate of the conveyor belt, located below the hopper, and a second scraper is provided at the upper left end of the storage box, which abuts against the lower surface of the conveyor belt.
[0010] Preferably, the distance between the first scraper and the conveyor belt is greater than the distance between the second scraper and the conveyor belt and less than one-third of the minimum size of the brown rice.
[0011] Preferably, the right opening of the hopper is a semi-circular discharge port, which is connected to a discharge pipe fixedly connected to the outer side of the right end of the hopper, and the discharge pipe is connected to the storage section.
[0012] Preferably, the right end of the hopper is provided with a groove that penetrates the upper plate.
[0013] Preferably, a baffle is slidably installed inside the groove, and an extension plate extends to the right from the upper end of the baffle.
[0014] Preferably, the outer sides of the front and rear inclined plates of the baffle are provided with side plates, located on the outer side of the hopper.
[0015] Preferably, the baffle fixes the different height positions of the body inside the groove by friction.
[0016] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] This invention utilizes a first and a second scraper to perform a double scraping process on the conveyor belt during feeding, effectively removing residual debris from the conveyor belt surface and keeping it clean. This prevents the continuous accumulation of debris from forming layered impurities, reducing the difficulty of subsequent maintenance and ensuring the microwave quality of the brown rice.
[0018] This invention replaces the traditional open feeding mechanism with a semi-enclosed feeding hopper, which can temporarily store the discharged brown rice during feeding. This allows the storage section to be replaced while maintaining normal operation, eliminating the need for repeated shutdowns and restarts and preventing brown rice from scattering. This facilitates subsequent grinding and other processing.
[0019] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0033] 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.
[0034] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
[0035] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model is a microwave processing device for milling brown rice, including a microwave device 11 and a conveyor belt 12, as well as a feeding mechanism at the right end of the microwave device 11.
[0036] The feeding mechanism is equipped with a detachable fixed base 21. A feeding hopper 22 is fixedly connected between the front and rear plates of the fixed base 21. It has two openings, left and right. The left opening corresponds to the conveyor belt 12, and the right opening corresponds to the storage section 23 at the right end of the microwave equipment 11. A controllable switching mechanism is provided at the right opening of the feeding hopper 22, which consists of a slide 2202 and a baffle 25. When the storage section 23 is replaced, the brown rice can be temporarily stored inside the feeding hopper 22 by closing the right opening, thus maintaining the normal operation of the microwave equipment 11. The storage section 23 can also be configured as a transmission mechanism to convey the brown rice to the grinding equipment, such as a screw feeding mechanism.
[0037] A first scraper 222 extends upward from the left end of the bottom plate of the hopper 22 and abuts against the right arc-shaped surface of the conveyor belt 12. A storage box 24 is detachably installed above the bottom plate of the conveyor belt 12 and is located below the hopper 22. A second scraper 241 is provided at the upper left end of the storage box 24 and abuts against the lower surface of the conveyor belt 12. The second scraper 241 is used to scrape out the remaining debris and store it inside the storage box 24 for easy cleaning later.
[0038] Furthermore, the distance between the first scraper 222 and the conveyor belt 12 is greater than the distance between the second scraper 241 and the conveyor belt 12 and less than one-third of the smallest size of brown rice. By controlling this distance, the brown rice can directly enter the hopper 22, while the broken pieces pass through the gap and continue to be conveyed downwards, and are then scraped out by the second scraper 241, thus achieving a separation effect.
[0039] Furthermore, the right opening of the hopper 22 is a semi-circular discharge port 2201, which is connected to the discharge pipe 221 fixedly connected to the outer side of the right end of the hopper 22. The discharge pipe 221 is connected to the storage section 23 and can also be connected to the feeding mechanism to achieve continuous processing effects of microwave and grinding.
[0040] Furthermore, a chute 2202 penetrating the upper plate is provided at the right end of the hopper 22. A baffle 25 is slidably installed inside the chute 2202. A support plate extends to the right from the upper end of the baffle 25. The baffle 25 moves up and down by pulling the support plate, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the discharge port 2201.
[0041] Furthermore, side plates 251 are provided on the outer sides of the front and rear inclined plates of the baffle 25, located on the outer side of the hopper 22. A groove is formed between the baffle 25 and the side plates 251, which abuts against the wall of the hopper 22. Thus, the baffle 25 is fixed inside the slide groove 2202 by friction when it is pulled up. The feeding speed can also be adjusted by fixing it at different heights.
[0042] It is understood that this utility model can keep the surface of the transmission mechanism of microwave equipment 1 clean, effectively avoid the formation of clumps and contamination by residual impurities, thereby ensuring the quality of microwave treatment of brown rice over a long period of time, and also allows the storage mechanism to be replaced under normal operating conditions.
[0043] A specific application of the operation process in this embodiment is as follows: When the microwave-treated brown rice is fed, it is first scraped off by the first scraper 222 and enters the feeding hopper 22. Under the guidance of the feeding hopper 22, it enters the storage section 23 for storage. When the storage section 23 needs to be replaced, the baffle 25 is pressed down to block the inner bottom surface of the feeding hopper 22, thereby blocking the feeding port 2201. This allows the brown rice to be temporarily stored inside the feeding hopper 22 and maintains the normal operation of 1. After replacing the storage section 23, the baffle 25 can be pulled up to release the blockage. During feeding, the second scraper 241 is used to scrape the conveyor belt 12 a second time to thoroughly remove the residual debris on its surface, preventing the debris from remaining for a long time and forming clumps of impurities, so as to ensure the quality of subsequent microwave treatment of brown rice.
