Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steaming and cooking equipment, and in particular to a glutinous rice steaming and cooking device for the production of rice wine. Background Technology

[0002] As a traditional Chinese fermented wine, huangjiu (yellow wine) has seen continuous market demand growth in recent years driven by consumption upgrades and the concept of healthy eating. Glutinous rice is the core raw material for huangjiu brewing, and its steaming effect directly affects the fermentation efficiency and the flavor of the finished product.

[0003] Traditional steamers or steamers have a simple structure, with steam entering directly from the bottom. During the rising process, uneven heating and the randomness of the steam flow path can easily lead to large differences in the heating of glutinous rice in different positions. In addition, the stirring operation in the traditional glutinous rice steaming process is relatively manual, with a limited stirring range, making it difficult to cover all the glutinous rice in the steamer. Furthermore, dead spots are easily formed during the stirring process, resulting in some glutinous rice not being fully stirred. In order to solve the above problems, this utility model provides a glutinous rice steaming device for yellow rice wine production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a glutinous rice steaming device for the production of rice wine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A glutinous rice steaming device for rice wine production includes a heating base and several steamers. A water storage base is fixedly connected to the upper end of the heating base. A heat insulation shell is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water storage base. A steaming bucket adapted to the steamers is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper surface of the water storage base. A connecting plate is fixedly connected between the several steamers. The middle ends of the several steamers are rotatably connected to the same transmission rod through bearings. Several mounting rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the surface of the transmission rod. Several stirring rods are fixedly connected to the lower end of the mounting rods. A power assembly is inserted into the upper end of the heat insulation shell.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the power assembly includes a bucket lid inserted into the upper end of the heat insulation shell. A mounting groove is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the bucket lid. A drive motor is fixedly installed inside the mounting groove. A connecting block is fixedly connected to the upper end of the transmission rod. A cross-shaped slot is provided at the upper end of the connecting block. A cross-shaped slot that matches the cross-shaped slot is fixedly connected to the power end of the drive motor.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, handles are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper surface of the bucket lid, and a pressure relief port is provided on one side of the upper surface of the bucket lid.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the upper end of the water storage base is provided with several air outlets, and a water inlet is provided on one side of the surface of the water storage base.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the surface of the steaming bucket is provided with several circulation grooves.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, one of the steamers has a grab bar fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] By setting up a steaming bucket, during use, the steam generated by the heating base heating the water storage seat enters the heat insulation shell through the top vent. It circulates and heats the space between the heat insulation shell and the steaming bucket, making full use of the heat of the steam. The steam continuously releases heat during the circulation process, evenly heating the steaming bucket and avoiding heat waste caused by direct steam discharge. This improves energy efficiency and reduces production costs. At the same time, the steam enters the steaming bucket through the circulation grooves on the surface of the steaming bucket to steam the glutinous rice. This ensures that the steam is evenly distributed to all parts of the steaming bucket, ensuring that the glutinous rice in the steamer is heated evenly and avoiding local overheating or undercooking, thus guaranteeing the quality of the steamed glutinous rice.

[0014] By setting up a power component, when in use, the drive motor is started to rotate the cross-shaped clamping block. The cross-shaped clamping block drives the transmission rod and the mounting rod to rotate synchronously through the connecting clamping block. This causes the several stirring rods under the mounting rod to tumble and mix the glutinous rice in the steamer. The tumbling and mixing operation of the stirring rods can make the glutinous rice heat more evenly, and at the same time, it can help the glutinous rice exchange moisture and heat, so that the glutinous rice can better absorb moisture and heat during the steaming process, thus improving the degree of cooking of the glutinous rice.

[0015] By using a connecting plate, several steamers can be connected together. By grasping the handle of the top steamer, several steamers can be inserted into the steaming bucket at once. This plug-in design makes the installation and disassembly of the steamers simple and quick, saving manpower and time, and facilitating quick preparation before steaming and cleaning after steaming.

[0016] In summary, this utility model, through its unique design, has significant beneficial effects in improving production efficiency, ensuring cooking quality, enhancing product quality, guaranteeing operational safety, and facilitating material discharge. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] 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.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-4 A glutinous rice steaming device for rice wine production includes a heating base 1 and several steamers 2. A water storage base 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the heating base 1. A heat insulation shell 4 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water storage base 3. A steaming bucket 5 adapted to the steamers 2 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper surface of the water storage base 3. A connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected between the several steamers 2. The middle of the several steamers 2 is rotatably connected to the same transmission rod 7 through a bearing. Several mounting rods 8 are fixedly connected to both sides of the surface of the transmission rod 7. Several stirring rods 9 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the mounting rods 8. A power component is inserted into the upper end of the heat insulation shell 4.

[0024] In this invention, the power assembly includes a bucket lid 10 inserted into the upper end of the heat insulation shell 4. A mounting groove is formed in the middle of the upper surface of the bucket lid 10. The depth of the mounting groove is calculated to ensure a stable installation of the drive motor 11 without excessively increasing the thickness and weight of the bucket lid 10. The inner wall of the groove is coated with a heat-insulating layer to prevent the motor from overheating and affecting its performance. The drive motor 11, a high-performance DC motor, is fixedly installed inside the mounting groove. Its internal advanced heat dissipation structure allows for continuous operation for extended periods without overheating damage. It is securely fixed in the mounting groove with bolts to ensure no shaking occurs during operation. The transmission rod 7... A connecting block 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end. The connecting block 12 is made of high-hardness alloy steel and undergoes a special heat treatment process, giving it extremely high strength and wear resistance. It can withstand the large torque transmitted by the drive motor 11 without deformation or damage. A cross slot 13 is provided at the upper end of the connecting block 12. A cross block 14 that matches the cross slot 13 is fixedly connected to the power end of the drive motor 11. The cross block 14 is also made of high-quality alloy material. Its four locking feet are specially designed to have a certain degree of elasticity. When inserted into the cross slot 13, it can automatically adjust its position to ensure a tight fit and prevent loosening or slippage during operation.

[0025] Handles 15 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper surface of the lid 10. A pressure relief port 16 is provided on one side of the upper surface of the lid 10. Several air vents 17 are opened at the upper end of the water storage base 3. The air vents 17 are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the water storage base 3, which can ensure the smooth discharge of steam and control the steam flow rate and flow rate, so that the steam can enter the heat insulation shell 4 evenly. A water inlet 18 is provided on one side of the surface of the water storage base 3. The water inlet 18 is equipped with a cover with good sealing performance. The cover and the water inlet 18 are connected by threads, which is tight and easy to open and close. The surface of the steaming bucket 5 is open Several circulation grooves 19 are provided, which are spirally distributed on the surface of the steaming barrel 5. This allows the steam to form an orderly circulation flow in the interlayer between the heat insulation shell 4 and the steaming barrel 5, increasing the contact area and time between the steam and the steaming barrel 5, and improving the heat exchange efficiency. Both sides of the upper end of one of the steaming cages 2 are fixedly connected to gripping rods 20. The gripping rods 20 are made of high-temperature resistant plastic material wrapped around a metal inner core. The outer plastic layer has good heat insulation properties to prevent operators from being burned when gripping, while the metal inner core provides sufficient strength and support to ensure that the steaming cage 2 will not deform during movement.

[0026] When using this utility model, firstly, a suitable amount of glutinous rice is evenly placed into several steamers 2. Each steamer 2 is tightly connected by a connecting plate 6 to form a stacked structure. The operator holds the gripping rods 20 on both sides of the top steamer 2 and inserts the entire steamer 2 assembly vertically downward into the steaming barrel 5. Then, the barrel lid 10 is smoothly moved above the steaming barrel 5 and slowly lowered to the top of the heat insulation shell 4. The relative positions of the cross-shaped locking block 14 at the bottom of the barrel lid 10 and the cross-shaped locking groove 13 of the connecting block 12 at the upper end of the transmission rod 7 are aligned to ensure that their axes are completely aligned. Then, vertical force is applied downward to complete the insertion. When inserted into place, the cross-shaped locking block 14 and the cross-shaped locking groove 13 form a gapless engagement. At the same time, the sealing ring on the edge of the barrel lid 10 is tightly fitted with the groove at the top of the heat insulation shell 4 to achieve steam sealing. At this time, the power output shaft of the drive motor 11 is rigidly connected to the transmission rod 7.

[0027] Next, the heating base 1 is turned on. The water in the water storage base 3 is rapidly heated to the boiling point under the action of the electric heating element, continuously generating high-temperature steam. The steam is evenly released through several air outlets 17 on the top of the water storage base 3 and enters the annular sandwich space formed by the heat insulation shell 4 and the steaming barrel 5. The steam rises along the sandwich and is guided into the steaming barrel 5 through the circulation groove 19 on the outer wall of the steaming barrel 5. It seeps in from the vent holes at the bottom and side walls of the steamer 2, providing all-round three-dimensional heating for the glutinous rice and ensuring uniform steaming. At the same time as the steam heating is started, the drive motor 11 is started. The drive motor 11 drives the cross-shaped locking block 14 to rotate. Through the mechanical coupling of the cross-shaped locking slot 13 and the connecting locking block 12, the torque is transmitted to the transmission rod 7. The mounting rod 8 at the lower end of the transmission rod 7 rotates synchronously, driving the multi-layer stirring rod 9 at its bottom to move inside the steamer 2. After the steaming process is completed, the heating base 1 and the drive motor 11 are turned off, and the pressure relief port 16 on the top of the barrel lid 10 is opened. After cooling, the rice is discharged.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
