Description
A Red Rice Magnetic Separator with Repeatable Adjustable Precision Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of red rice processing technology, specifically a red rice magnetic separator with adjustable precision. Background Technology
[0002] Red rice processing uses brown rice, rich in anthocyanins, iron, zinc, and other nutrients, as raw material. Through a refined process chain including hulling and sorting, low-temperature milling, color sorting and grading, appropriate polishing, precise drying, sterilization and preservation, the original brown rice is transformed into finished rice that retains antioxidants and has better palatability. At the same time, it extends to the development of deep-processed products such as red rice flour, red rice enzymes, and red rice tea, and utilizes rice bran to extract natural pigments and dietary fiber. Its core lies in balancing nutrient retention and processing suitability through modern food engineering technology. While meeting the market demand for healthy food, it builds a green processing system of "whole grain utilization and zero-waste production," which not only enhances the added value of mountain specialty agricultural products, but also provides a technological paradigm for the development of functional staple foods and the upgrading of traditional grain industries.
[0003] Based on existing red rice magnetic separators, it was found that these devices directly pour red rice, requiring manual selection of the amount to be added, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Furthermore, the red rice is piled up with small gaps between the grains, resulting in some impurities, such as iron filings, being blocked and unable to be effectively adsorbed. This leads to a significant amount of iron filings remaining on some of the red rice, reducing its purity. Therefore, this invention designs a red rice magnetic separator with adjustable precision to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a red rice magnetic separator with adjustable precision to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0010] Optionally, the threaded rod and the threaded seat of the support plate form a helical pair, and the limiting baffle is driven to slide laterally along the inner wall of the feed hopper by rotating the handle. The two ends of the telescopic rod are respectively hinged to the limiting baffle and the support plate to maintain the movement stability of the limiting baffle.
[0011] Optionally, the vibration output end of the vibration motor passes through the side wall of the feed hopper and is rigidly connected to the first bearing plate, and the spring body is vertically distributed between the first bearing plate and the second bearing plate.

[0013] Optionally, the filter screen is provided in three parallel intervals in the feed hopper, and the number of slots of the limiting baffle matches the number of filter screens. The gap size of the Red Rice passing through the filter screen is controlled by adjusting the position of the limiting baffle.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. In this utility model, a feeding mechanism is provided. The feeding mechanism, through the cooperation of a limiting baffle, a strainer, and a threaded rod, enables the repeatable adjustment of the red rice flow rate, avoiding the problem of over- or under-filling caused by traditional manual dumping, and significantly improving the consistency of sorting accuracy.

[0028] 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.
[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-8. In this embodiment of the present invention, a red rice magnetic separator with adjustable precision includes a support frame 1. A feeding mechanism 2 and a magnetic separation mechanism 3 are arranged above the support frame 1. A magnetic separation chamber 301 is fixedly installed at the left end of the support frame 1, and a feeding chamber 201 is connected above the magnetic separation chamber 301. The feeding mechanism 2 includes a feeding limiting structure and a dispersing structure. A strainer 202 and a slidably adjustable limiting baffle 203 are provided inside the feeding chamber 201. The dispersing structure disperses the red rice through the cooperation of a vibration motor 212 and a spring body 210. The feeding limiting structure includes a strainer 202, a limiting baffle 203, a rotating disk 204, a threaded rod 205, a rotating handle 206, a telescopic rod 207, and a support plate 208. The limiting baffle 205... 3. Sliding installation on the inner wall of the feed bin 201 and misaligned with the screen 202 through a slot. Rotary disk 204 is fixed to the front end of the limiting baffle 203 and connected to the threaded rod 205. The front end of the threaded rod 205 is provided with a rotating handle 206. Both sides are fixed to the support plate 208 through telescopic rods 207. The support plate 208 is rotatably connected to the threaded rod 205 through a threaded seat. The bulk material structure includes a first bearing plate 209, a spring body 210, a second bearing plate 211 and a vibration motor 212. The vibration motor 212 is symmetrically fixed on the outer sides of the left and right ends of the feed bin 201. The first bearing plate 209 is connected to the vibration motor 212 and elastically connected to the second bearing plate 211 through the spring body 210. The second bearing plate 211 is fixedly installed on the top of the magnetic separation bin 301.
[0030] The feeding mechanism 2 consists of a feeding limiting structure and a dispersing structure. Specifically, after red rice is injected through the top of the feeding hopper 201, it is initially screened by three layers of parallel, spaced mesh 202. The mesh 202 is fixed to the inner wall of the feeding hopper 201, and its aperture is designed in a stepped decreasing pattern according to the red rice particle size to disperse the material layer by layer. The limiting baffle 203 is laterally slidably installed on the inner wall of the feeding hopper 201. Its front end is rigidly connected to the threaded rod 205 via a rotating disk 204. A rotating handle 206 is installed at the end of the threaded rod 205, and both sides are supported by telescopic rods 207 and a support plate 208. During operation, the rotating... The handle 206 drives the threaded rod 205 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the screw pair with the threaded seat on the support plate 208, it drives the limit baffle 203 to slide, thereby adjusting the gap through which the red rice passes, achieving a repeatable adjustment effect. At the same time, after the vibration motors 212 on the left and right sides of the feed hopper 201 are started, they transmit the vibration to the feed hopper 201 through the first bearing plate 209. The spring body 210 is distributed between the first bearing plate 209 and the second bearing plate 211, forming an elastic buffer system. This allows the red rice to be subjected to high-frequency vibration and the step blocking effect of the filter screen 202 during the falling process, completely breaking the stacking state and significantly improving the impurity exposure rate.
[0031] The magnetic separation mechanism 3 includes a permanent magnet drum 308, a drive motor 305, and an adjustable scraper 304. The permanent magnet drum 308 is connected to the drive motor 305 via a drive rod 306 and adsorbs impurities. The scraper 304 is detachably installed inside the limit socket 303 to remove impurities. The magnetic separation mechanism 3 also includes a feeding bin 302, a limit socket 303, a drive rod 306, and a bearing frame 307. The bottom of the magnetic separation bin 301 is connected to the feeding bin 302. The permanent magnet drum 308 is coaxially fixed on the drive rod 306. The drive rod 306 is installed on the right end of the support frame 1 via the bearing frame 307 and is connected to the drive motor 305. The scraper 304 is horizontally movable and inserted into the limit socket 303. The threaded rod 205 and the threaded seat of the support plate 208 form a helical pair. The limit baffle 203 is driven along the inner wall of the feeding bin 201 by rotating the handle 206. Laterally sliding, the two ends of the telescopic rod 207 are respectively hinged to the limiting baffle 203 and the support plate 208 to maintain the movement stability of the limiting baffle 203. The vibration output end of the vibration motor 212 passes through the side wall of the feed bin 201 and is rigidly connected to the first bearing plate 209. The spring body 210 is vertically distributed between the first bearing plate 209 and the second bearing plate 211. The blade of the scraper 304 maintains an adjustable distance from the outer surface of the permanent magnet roller 308. The scraper 304 and the permanent magnet roller 308 are contacted or separated through the guide groove of the limiting socket 303. The removed impurities are discharged in a concentrated manner through the discharge bin 302. There are three strainers 202, which are distributed in parallel and spaced in the feed bin 201. The number of slots of the limiting baffle 203 matches the number of strainers 202. The gap size of the red rice passing through the strainers 202 is controlled by adjusting the position of the limiting baffle 203.
[0032] The dispersed red rice falls evenly from the bottom of the feed hopper 201 into the magnetic separator 301. The drive motor 305 drives the permanent magnet drum 308 to rotate through the drive rod 306. During the falling process, magnetic impurities such as iron filings are attracted to the surface of the permanent magnet drum 308, while the clean red rice passes directly through the bottom of the magnetic separator 301 and is output. After the impurities are attracted, the operator pushes the scraper 304 horizontally along the guide groove of the limit socket 303 so that the scraper 304 is in close contact with the surface of the permanent magnet drum 308. The rotation of the permanent magnet drum 308 drives the impurities to the contact area of the scraper 304. The blade peels off the impurities and discharges them along the feed hopper 302.
[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After the red rice is injected into the feeding hopper 201, the flow rate is first controlled by the feeding limiting structure. The operator rotates the rotating handle 206 to drive the threaded rod 205 to rotate, which drives the limiting baffle 203 to slide laterally along the inner wall of the feeding hopper 201. Through the misalignment of the slot on the limiting baffle 203 with the three strainers 202, the gap size of the red rice can be adjusted. For example, increasing the gap can increase the single processing volume, while decreasing the gap can improve the sorting accuracy, thereby precisely controlling the amount of red rice fed in. At the same time, after the vibration motor 212 is started, it drives the first bearing plate 209 to vibrate, and the vibration is transmitted to the feeding hopper 201 through the spring body 210, so that the red rice is dispersed layer by layer through the strainers 202 during the falling process, breaking the stacking state and increasing the gap between the red rice. The dispersed red rice falls evenly into the magnetic separation chamber 301. At this time, the drive motor 305 drives the permanent magnet drum 308 to rotate through the drive rod 306, using its surface magnetic field to adsorb magnetic impurities such as iron filings in the red rice. As the permanent magnet drum 308 continues to rotate, the adsorbed impurities gradually move away from the red rice falling area. When the impurities accumulate to a set amount, the operator pushes the scraper 304 horizontally along the limit socket 303 to the surface of the permanent magnet drum 308. The scraper 304 blades peel off the impurities, which are then discharged through the feeding chamber 302. The clean red rice is output from the bottom of the magnetic separation chamber 301, completing the sorting process.
[0034] 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.
