Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of compressed candy production technology, specifically a mixing mechanism for preparing compressed candy. Background Technology

[0002] Compressed candy is a type of solid candy made by directly pressing powdered or granular raw materials into tablets using a tablet press. In the production process of compressed candy, the mixing equipment is the core link to ensure uniform mixing of raw materials, which directly affects the product quality and taste.

[0003] The double cone mixer is one of the commonly used equipment for mixing raw materials in compressed candy. The double cone mixer is a mechanical device that feeds powdered or granular materials into a double cone container through vacuum conveying or manual feeding. As the container rotates continuously, the materials tumble and collide within the container to achieve uniform mixing.

[0004] In existing double-cone mixers, the conical container rotates around an axis, and the material tumbles and mixes along the inclined inner wall of the conical container. The material tends to accumulate together, resulting in uneven dispersion and mixing. Therefore, in order to further improve the dispersion effect of the material inside the conical container, a mixing mechanism for preparing compressed candy is provided. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mixing mechanism for preparing compressed candy in order to solve the problems mentioned above.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mixing mechanism for preparing compressed candy, comprising a concave base box and a double conical can, wherein rotating shafts are fixed on both sides of the double conical can, and the double conical can is rotatably connected to the concave base box through the rotating shafts; a rhomboid hollow diverter plate is fixed in the middle of the inner side of the double conical can, and the upper and lower ends of the rhomboid hollow diverter plate have an acute angle structure;

[0007] When the double-cone tank is overturned, the diamond-shaped hollow diverter plate blocks the tumbling material, causing the material to be diverted, thereby achieving the effect of dispersing the material.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model: multiple rhomboid hollow diverter plates are provided, and the multiple rhomboid hollow diverter plates are distributed in a matrix on the inner side of the double cone tank, and the two adjacent rhomboid hollow diverter plates are staggered in the horizontal direction.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: the rhomboid hollow diverter plate completely penetrates both ends of the outer side of the double conical tank, and the flowing air passing through the double conical tank when the double conical tank is flipped is used to cool the inside of the double conical tank.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the top and bottom of the double conical tank are respectively equipped with an inlet cover and a discharge valve for loading and unloading operations.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a sprocket is fixed inside the concave base box of the rotating shaft, and a drive mechanism for driving the sprocket to rotate is provided inside the concave base box.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] By setting up diamond-shaped hollow diverter plates, the material can be blocked and diverted multiple times during the tumbling process of the double conical can, thus achieving multiple dispersion and convergence movements of the material. Compared with the traditional double conical can structure without diamond-shaped hollow diverter plates, the material dispersion effect is better, which can effectively avoid uneven mixing caused by material accumulation. In addition, during the tumbling process of the double conical can, air flow is generated inside the diamond-shaped hollow diverter plates under the action of centrifugal force. The flowing air absorbs heat and cools down the air inside the double conical can and the compressed candy material, which can effectively prevent the temperature of the compressed candy material from becoming too high.

[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. 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.

[0020] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment of the present invention, a mixing mechanism for preparing compressed candy includes a concave base box 1 and a double conical can 2. The double conical can 2 is fixed with rotating shafts 3 on both sides. The double conical can 2 is rotatably connected to the concave base box 1 through the rotating shafts 3. A sprocket is fixed inside the concave base box 1 on one rotating shaft 3. A driving mechanism for driving the sprocket to rotate is provided inside the concave base box 1. A rhomboid hollow diverter plate 6 is fixed in the middle of the inner side of the double conical can 2. The upper and lower ends of the rhomboid hollow diverter plate 6 have an acute angle structure.

[0021] When the double cone tank 2 is overturned, the diamond-shaped hollow diversion plate 6 blocks the tumbling material, causing the material to be diverted, thereby achieving the effect of dispersing the material.

[0022] Multiple rhomboid hollow diversion plates 6 are provided, and the multiple rhomboid hollow diversion plates 6 are distributed in a matrix on the inner side of the double cone tank 2, and the two adjacent rhomboid hollow diversion plates 6 are staggered in the horizontal direction.

[0023] The top and bottom of the double conical tank 2 are respectively equipped with an inlet cover plate 4 and a discharge valve 5 for loading and unloading operations.

[0024] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the drive mechanism of the concave base box 1 consists of a motor, a drive sprocket, and a chain. The motor drives the drive sprocket, which in turn drives the sprocket and the rotating shaft 3 to rotate via the chain, thereby realizing the flipping operation of the double cone tank 2. The drive mechanism, the inlet cover plate 4, and the discharge valve 5 are conventional structures of existing double cone mixers, and their operating principles are exactly the same. Therefore, they will not be described in detail here.

[0025] The steps for mixing compressed candy materials are as follows:

[0026] After opening the inlet cover 4 and placing the compressed candy material into the double conical can 2, the inlet cover 4 is closed. Then, the pneumatic drive mechanism causes the double conical can 2 to flip, and the material inside the double conical can 2 flips synchronously. At the same time, during the flipping process, the material will come into contact with the rhomboid hollow diverter plate 6. After being blocked by the rhomboid hollow diverter plate 6, the material will be diverted along the inclined surface of the rhomboid hollow diverter plate 6. In this way, through the blocking and diversion of multiple rhomboid hollow diverter plates 6, multiple dispersion and convergence movements of the material can be achieved. Compared with the traditional double conical can structure without rhomboid hollow diverter plates 6, its material dispersion effect is better, which can effectively avoid the situation of uneven mixing caused by the accumulation of materials, and further improve the mixing uniformity and mixing efficiency of the compressed candy material.

[0027] Please refer to this carefully. Figures 1-4 The diamond-shaped hollow diverter plate 6 completely penetrates both ends of the outer side of the double cone tank 2. When the double cone tank 2 is overturned, the flowing air passing through the double cone tank 2 is used to cool the inside of the double cone tank 2.

[0028] In this embodiment: During the tumbling and mixing process of the compressed candy material, heat is generated due to the mutual friction of the material. During the tumbling process of the double conical tank 2, air flow is generated inside the rhomboid hollow diverter plate 6 under the action of centrifugal force. The flowing air cools the rhomboid hollow diverter plate 6, and then absorbs heat and cools the air inside the double conical tank 2 and the compressed candy material, thereby avoiding the temperature of the compressed candy material from becoming too high.

[0029] 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.
