Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically to a material uniform mixing device for an integrated konjac flour machine. Background Technology

[0002] Konjac flour is a high-quality polysaccharide extracted from konjac. It is commonly used in the food industry to make gels and thickeners, and also has wide applications in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic fields. The mixing process is crucial to the quality and performance of the finished product; uniform mixing fully utilizes the unique advantages of konjac flour.

[0003] Utility model patent CN221999607U discloses a konjac flour homogenizer, which includes a homogenizing tank for refining and mixing konjac flour; a primary stirring component installed inside the homogenizing tank for horizontal stirring; and a secondary stirring component installed inside the homogenizing tank for vertical stirring. This utility model, by installing a primary and a secondary stirring component inside the homogenizing tank, achieves better refining and dispersion of the konjac flour through the primary stirring component (horizontal stirring) and the secondary stirring component (vertical stirring), thus improving the dispersion efficiency of the konjac flour and solving the problem of low efficiency in existing homogenizers.

[0004] The current konjac flour homogenizer relies solely on horizontal and vertical stirring components for material mixing. This results in a single material mixing path, leading to insufficient mixing and poor uniformity. Furthermore, it is difficult to achieve material circulation and mixing, resulting in low mixing efficiency and unstable quality. Therefore, we propose a material uniform mixing device for the integrated konjac flour machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a material uniform mixing device for an integrated konjac flour machine, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] The material uniform mixing device of the konjac flour integrated machine includes a tank, a top cover installed on the top of the tank, a stirring assembly installed on the tank, a polymerization plate fixed inside the tank, a sieve hole opened at the center of the polymerization plate, a sieve basket fixed on the stirring assembly located below the polymerization plate, and several lifting mechanisms installed on the outer surface of the tank. Each lifting mechanism includes a sleeve communicating with the inside of the tank and a spiral conveying rod installed inside the sleeve. A feeding channel is connected between the bottom end of the sleeve and the bottom of the tank, and a discharge channel is connected between the upper part of the sleeve and the tank. The outlet of the discharge channel is located above the polymerization plate, and a conveying motor is connected to the end of the spiral conveying rod.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the top cover is connected to a feed inlet;

[0009] In this setup, the inlet provides a convenient entry channel for materials, facilitating the rapid and stable introduction of materials into the tank for mixing operations.

[0010] Preferably, the stirring assembly includes a stirring motor fixed to the top of the top cover, a stirring shaft coaxially connected to the stirring motor and extending into the tank body, and a plurality of stirring rods fixed to the outer surface of the bottom end of the stirring shaft.

[0011] In this setup, the stirring motor drives the stirring shaft and stirring rod to rotate, which can fully stir the materials in the tank and achieve preliminary mixing.

[0012] Preferably, the polymer plate has a funnel-shaped structure with a higher outer edge and a lower inner edge;

[0013] In this setup, the funnel-shaped polymer plate utilizes gravity to allow materials to naturally converge towards the central hole, facilitating concentrated material fall.

[0014] Preferably, a spiral plate is fixed to the top surface of the polymer plate, and the material discharged from the discharge channel flows into the drain hole along the spiral channel formed by the spiral plate;

[0015] In this setup, the spiral plate plans a specific flow path for the material discharged from the outlet channel, extending the residence time of the material on the polymer plate, promoting the dispersion and mixing of the material, and ensuring that the material enters the drain hole in an orderly manner.

[0016] Preferably, the outer surface of the funnel basket is a mesh structure made of stainless steel, and the bottom end of the funnel basket is provided with a bottom plate, which is fixed on the stirring shaft;

[0017] In this setup, the stainless steel mesh basket can screen the falling material, separating clumps or large particles. At the same time, it rotates under the drive of the stirring shaft, dispersing the internal material back into the tank.

[0018] Preferably, the bottom end of the tank is connected to a discharge pipe, and a ball valve is installed on the discharge pipe;

[0019] In this setup, the combination of the discharge pipe and the ball valve facilitates the control of the discharge of the mixed material. It can be flexibly opened or closed according to production needs to realize the output and unloading of materials.

[0020] Preferably, the spiral conveyor rod consists of a rotating shaft and spiral blades, the spiral blades are fixed on the outside of the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is coaxially connected to the conveying motor, the bottom of the spiral conveyor rod extends into the feed channel, and the top of the spiral conveyor rod extends into the discharge channel;

[0021] In this setup, the screw conveyor, driven by a conveyor motor, uses its helical blades to forcibly lift and transport the material from the bottom of the tank to the top, achieving material circulation and enhancing the uniformity of mixing.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] The material uniform mixing device of this konjac flour integrated machine achieves material mixing through the coordinated operation of the lifting mechanism, the polymerization plate, and the funnel basket. During the dynamic stirring of the material in the tank by the stirring component, the lifting mechanism, through the forced conveying action of the spiral conveyor, directionally lifts the material at the bottom of the tank to the top, forming a bottom-up material flow path. After being concentrated and guided by the polymerization plate, the material falls into the funnel basket for secondary polymerization. As the stirring component drives the funnel basket to rotate at high speed, the material is centrifugally thrown out and redispersed into the tank. This process promotes the formation of convection circulation of the material in the tank. Through multiple cycles, the material is mixed at multiple angles and paths in different spatial dimensions, improving the mixing uniformity. 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. 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] Please see Figures 1-6 The material uniform mixing device of the konjac flour integrated machine includes a tank 1. A top cover 11 is installed on the top of the tank 1, and an inlet 111 is connected to the top of the top cover 11 to facilitate material entry into the tank 1. A discharge pipe 15 is connected to the bottom of the tank 1, and a ball valve is installed on the discharge pipe 15. The ball valve controls the opening and closing of the discharge pipe 15, allowing for flexible control of material discharge and facilitating unloading after mixing. A stirring assembly 12 is installed on the tank 1. The stirring assembly 12 includes a stirring motor 121 fixed to the top of the top cover 11, a stirring shaft 122 coaxially connected to the stirring motor 121 and extending into the tank 1, and several stirring rods 123 fixed to the outer surface of the bottom end of the stirring shaft 122. By starting the stirring motor 121, the stirring motor 121 drives the stirring shaft 122 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring rods 123 to stir the material in the tank, achieving preliminary mixing of the material.

[0035] like Figures 2-4 As shown, in this utility model, a polymer plate 13 is fixed inside the tank body 1. A leakage hole 131 is provided at the center of the polymer plate 13. The polymer plate 13 has a funnel-shaped structure with the outer side higher than the inner side. A spiral plate 132 is fixed on the top surface of the polymer plate 13. The funnel-shaped structure of the polymer plate 13 allows the material to naturally concentrate towards the center along the spiral plate 132 and fall through the leakage hole 131, preventing the material falling on the polymer plate 13 from accumulating on the polymer plate 13.

[0036] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, specifically, a sieve basket 14 is fixed on the stirring assembly 12 located below the polymerization plate 13. The outer surface of the sieve basket 14 is a mesh structure made of stainless steel. The bottom end of the sieve basket 14 is provided with a bottom plate 141, which is fixed on the stirring shaft 122. The mesh structure of the sieve basket 14 can screen the material falling into the sieve basket 14 and remove any possible lumps or large particles. At the same time, when the sieve basket 14 rotates at high speed driven by the stirring shaft 122, it can throw the material inside the sieve basket 14 out by centrifugal force, so that the material polymerized in the sieve basket 14 is dispersed again and falls into the tank 1.

[0037] like Figures 1-3 and Figure 6As shown, furthermore, several lifting mechanisms 2 are provided on the outer surface of the tank body 1. Each lifting mechanism 2 includes a sleeve 21 communicating with the interior of the tank body 1 and a spiral conveying rod 22 disposed within the sleeve 21. The end of the spiral conveying rod 22 is connected to a conveying motor 221. The spiral conveying rod 22 consists of a rotating shaft and spiral blades, with the spiral blades fixed to the outside of the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is coaxially connected to the conveying motor 221. The lifting mechanism 2 drives the spiral conveying rod 22 to rotate via the conveying motor 221, using the spiral blades to forcibly lift the material at the bottom of the tank body 1 upwards.

[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in addition, a feed channel 211 is connected between the bottom end of the sleeve 21 and the bottom of the tank 1, and a discharge channel 212 is connected between the upper part of the sleeve 21 and the tank 1. The bottom of the screw conveyor 22 extends into the feed channel 211, and the top end of the screw conveyor 22 extends into the discharge channel 212. The outlet of the discharge channel 212 is located above the polymerization plate 13. The material discharged from the discharge channel 212 flows into the drain hole 131 along the spiral channel formed by the screw plate 132. The material channel 211 and the discharge channel 212 form a material circulation path, so that the material at the bottom of the tank 1 is lifted upward along the sleeve 21 under the rotation of the screw conveyor 22 and discharged from the discharge channel 212 onto the polymerization plate 13. The material discharged by multiple lifting mechanisms 2 is concentrated and flows to the leakage hole 131 under the action of the screw plate 132, so that the material enters the leakage basket 14 and is then thrown into the tank 1. Under the multiple material circulation flow, the material is repeatedly circulated and mixed, improving the mixing uniformity.

[0039] It is worth noting that the stirring motor 121 and the conveying motor 221 involved in this utility model are both existing conventional technologies, and will not be described in detail here.

[0040] In this embodiment, the material uniform mixing device of the konjac flour integrated machine operates as follows: First, the material enters the tank 1 through the inlet 111 at the top of the top cover 11. Under the action of the stirring assembly 12, the running stirring motor 121 drives the stirring shaft 122 and stirring rod 123 to rotate, thus performing preliminary stirring and mixing of the material. Then, under the action of the conveying motor 221, the conveying motor 221 drives the spiral conveying rod 22 to rotate, so that the material at the bottom of the tank 1 is sucked into the sleeve 21 through the inlet channel 211 and then forcibly lifted by the rotating spiral conveying rod 22. Finally, the lifted material exits through the outlet channel. The material is discharged from channel 212 to the top of the polymerization plate 13, so that the material lifted by multiple lifting mechanisms 2 mixes and flows into the drain hole 131 along the spiral channel formed by the spiral plate 132 on the surface of the spiral plate 132 and falls into the drain basket 14 through the drain hole 131. As the stirring assembly 12 works, the drain basket 14 rotates under the drive of the stirring shaft 122, so that the drain basket 14 screens the material and centrifuges it out, thereby dispersing the material and allowing the material to fall back into the tank 1 to enter the mixing cycle, so that the material is mixed evenly. Finally, the mixed material can be discharged from the bottom of the tank 1 by opening the ball valve on the discharge pipe 15.

[0041] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
