Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dairy product processing technology, and more specifically, to a dairy product foaming device. Background Technology

[0002] Dairy product foaming involves introducing steam into dairy products and stirring to create bubbles. Foaming causes milk molecules to bind together, making the foam texture denser and improving the taste. Traditional dairy product foaming devices can only deliver steam to a certain part of the tank, preventing large-area, three-dimensional steam input. This results in slow foaming speed and uneven foaming, seriously affecting the processing efficiency and quality of dairy products.

[0003] A search revealed a utility model patent with publication number CN 220859340 U3, which discloses a dairy product foaming device. This device can deliver steam to dairy products over a large area in a three-dimensional manner. The stirring plate can also break up large air bubbles in the dairy products, forming uniform small bubbles. It can quickly and evenly input steam and also has a foaming function, effectively improving foaming speed and uniformity, thus enhancing its practicality.

[0004] In the aforementioned patent, because the frame is fixedly installed on the top of the tank, it is difficult to completely separate the rotating drum and stirring plate from the inside of the tank. After each foaming process, some dairy raw materials will remain inside the tank, making it inconvenient to remove the tank for proper cleaning. After long-term use, mold may grow in the dead corners inside the tank, affecting the quality of subsequent dairy raw materials. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a dairy product foaming device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a dairy product foaming device, comprising a workbench, a support frame fixedly connected to the back of the top of the workbench, a top plate fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, a lifting assembly mounted on the top plate, a foaming assembly mounted at the bottom of the lifting assembly, a bracket assembly mounted in the middle of the top of the workbench, a raw material tank mounted on the inner side of the bracket assembly, the lifting assembly comprising a threaded tube rotatably connected to the surface of the top plate, a lead screw threadedly sleeved on the inner side of the threaded tube, a lifting plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the lead screw, a driven gear fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the threaded tube, the lifting assembly further comprising a lifting motor fixedly connected to the top of the top plate, a driving gear fixedly connected to the output shaft of the lifting motor, the driving gear and the driven gear meshing with each other, the foaming assembly comprising a control frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate, a closing frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the control frame, a closing groove formed around the bottom of the closing frame, the closing groove being adapted to the opening at the top of the raw material tank.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the control frame, an mounting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder piston rod, a movable tube is movably sleeved in the middle of the top of the mounting plate, a second gear is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the movable tube, and a steam inlet pipe is movably sleeved on the top of the movable tube.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a rotary motor is fixedly connected to the right side of the bottom of the mounting plate, and a first gear is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the rotary motor.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, positioning grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the control frame, and positioning sliders are fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting plate, with the positioning sliders slidably engaged with the positioning grooves.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a first branch pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer side of the movable pipe, and a second branch pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable pipe. Air jet holes are provided on the surfaces of both the first and second branch pipes.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bracket assembly includes a support plate fixedly connected to the top of the workbench, a positioning frame fixedly connected to the top of the inner side of the support plate, and a support frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the support plate.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, positioning rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the lifting plate, and the positioning rods are movably sleeved with the top plate.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model is equipped with a lifting assembly and a support assembly. When the lifting motor is started, it drives the drive gear to rotate. Through the meshing action with the driven gear, it drives the threaded tube to rotate. Under the thread thrust of the threaded tube, the screw drives the lifting plate to move vertically upward, thereby moving the foaming assembly upward. Then, the sealing frame no longer seals the opening of the raw material tank. At the same time, the movable tube separates from the inside of the raw material tank. Finally, the raw material tank can be taken out from the inside of the support assembly for cleaning.

[0015] 2. This utility model features a foaming component. A rotary motor drives a first gear to rotate, which in turn drives a movable tube to rotate through meshing with a second gear. Consequently, the first and second branch tubes rotate within the dairy raw materials. A cylinder can also move the mounting plate up and down, allowing the first and second branch tubes to move up and down simultaneously while rotating. This ensures that steam is evenly sprayed into the interior of the dairy raw materials, breaking up larger bubbles and improving foaming efficiency, resulting in finer bubbles.

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.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a dairy product foaming device, including a workbench 1, a support frame 101 fixedly connected to the back of the top of the workbench 1, a top plate 102 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 101, a lifting assembly 2 installed on the top plate 102, a foaming assembly 3 installed at the bottom of the lifting assembly 2, a bracket assembly 4 installed in the middle of the top of the workbench 1, a raw material tank 5 installed inside the bracket assembly 4, and the lifting assembly 2 includes a threaded tube 201 rotatably connected to the surface of the top plate 102, a lead screw 202 threadedly connected to the inner side of the threaded tube 201, and a bottom of the lead screw 202 fixedly connected to... The lifting assembly 2 includes a lifting plate 203, a driven gear 205 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the threaded pipe 201, a lifting motor 206 fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 102, a drive gear 207 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the lifting motor 206, the drive gear 207 and the driven gear 205 meshing with each other, and a foaming assembly 3 including a control frame 301 fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 203, a closing frame 308 fixedly connected to the bottom of the control frame 301, a closing groove 309 opened around the bottom of the closing frame 308, and the closing groove 309 being adapted to the opening at the top of the raw material tank 5.

[0024] In this embodiment, steam enters the interior of the movable tube 304 through the steam inlet pipe 310. Finally, the steam is sprayed into the dairy raw materials inside the raw material tank 5 through the jet holes 343 on the surface of the first branch pipe 341 and the second branch pipe 342. The first gear 307 is driven to rotate by the rotary motor 306, and the movable tube 304 is driven to rotate through the meshing action with the second gear 305. Then the first branch pipe 341 and the second branch pipe 342 rotate in the dairy raw materials. The cylinder 302 can drive the mounting plate 303 to move up and down. Then the first branch pipe 341 and the second branch pipe 342 can move up and down while rotating, so that the steam can be evenly sprayed into the interior of the dairy raw materials and can break up larger bubbles, improving the foaming efficiency and making the bubbles finer.

[0025] When the raw material tank 5 needs to be disassembled and cleaned, the movable tube 304 needs to be separated from the inside of the raw material tank 5 first. Start the lifting motor 206 to drive the drive gear 207 to rotate. Through the meshing action with the driven gear 205, the threaded tube 201 is driven to rotate. Under the thread thrust of the threaded tube 201, the screw 202 drives the lifting plate 203 to move vertically upward, thereby moving the foaming component 3 upward. Then, the sealing frame 308 no longer seals the opening of the raw material tank 5. At the same time, the movable tube 304 is separated from the inside of the raw material tank 5. Finally, the raw material tank 5 can be taken out from the inside of the support assembly 4 to clean the raw material tank 5.

[0026] Among them, a cylinder 302 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the control frame 301, a mounting plate 303 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the piston rod of the cylinder 302, a movable tube 304 is movably sleeved in the middle of the top of the mounting plate 303, a second gear 305 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the movable tube 304, a steam inlet pipe 310 is movably sleeved on the top of the movable tube 304, a rotary motor 306 is fixedly connected to the right side of the bottom of the mounting plate 303, and a first gear 307 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the rotary motor 306.

[0027] The first gear 307 is driven to rotate by the rotary motor 306, and the moving tube 304 is driven to rotate by the meshing action with the second gear 305. Then the first branch tube 341 and the second branch tube 342 rotate in the dairy raw materials. The cylinder 302 can drive the mounting plate 303 to move up and down. Then the first branch tube 341 and the second branch tube 342 can move up and down while rotating, so that the steam can be evenly sprayed into the interior of the dairy raw materials.

[0028] The control frame 301 has positioning grooves 311 on both sides of its inner wall, and the mounting plate 303 has positioning sliders 331 fixedly connected to both sides, with the positioning sliders 331 slidingly connected to the positioning grooves 311.

[0029] The positioning groove 311 and the positioning slider 331 work together to position the mounting plate 303, preventing it from shifting or tilting when the cylinder 302 moves the mounting plate 303 up and down.

[0030] Among them, the bottom of the outer side of the movable tube 304 is fixedly connected to the first branch tube 341, and the bottom of the movable tube 304 is fixedly connected to the second branch tube 342. The surfaces of the first branch tube 341 and the second branch tube 342 are both provided with air jet holes 343.

[0031] Steam is sprayed into the interior of the dairy raw material through multiple jet holes 343, and the first branch pipe 341 and the second branch pipe 342 can evenly stir the dairy raw material, so that the steam is fully sprayed into the interior of the dairy raw material.

[0032] The bracket assembly 4 includes a support plate 401 fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 1, a positioning frame 402 fixedly connected to the top of the inner side of the support plate 401, and a support frame 403 fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the support plate 401.

[0033] The positioning frame 402 serves to position the raw material tank 5, and the support frame 403 has an arc-shaped groove on its inner side to support the bottom of the raw material tank 5.

[0034] The lifting plate 203 has positioning rods 204 fixedly connected to both sides of its top, and the positioning rods 204 are movably connected to the top plate 102.

[0035] The positioning rod 204 can position the lifting plate 203 and the lead screw 202, so that the lead screw 202 and the lifting plate 203 can only move up and down, but will not rotate.

[0036] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0037] Steam enters the interior of the movable tube 304 through the steam inlet pipe 310. Finally, the steam is sprayed into the dairy raw materials inside the raw material tank 5 through the jet holes 343 on the surface of the first branch pipe 341 and the second branch pipe 342. The first gear 307 is driven to rotate by the rotary motor 306, and the movable tube 304 is driven to rotate through the meshing action with the second gear 305. Then the first branch pipe 341 and the second branch pipe 342 rotate in the dairy raw materials. The cylinder 302 can drive the mounting plate 303 to move up and down. Then the first branch pipe 341 and the second branch pipe 342 can move up and down while rotating, so that the steam can be evenly sprayed into the interior of the dairy raw materials and can break up larger bubbles, improving the foaming efficiency and making the bubbles finer.

[0038] When the raw material tank 5 needs to be disassembled and cleaned, the movable tube 304 needs to be separated from the inside of the raw material tank 5 first. Start the lifting motor 206 to drive the drive gear 207 to rotate. Through the meshing action with the driven gear 205, the threaded tube 201 is driven to rotate. Under the thread thrust of the threaded tube 201, the screw 202 drives the lifting plate 203 to move vertically upward, thereby moving the foaming component 3 upward. Then, the sealing frame 308 no longer seals the opening of the raw material tank 5. At the same time, the movable tube 304 is separated from the inside of the raw material tank 5. Finally, the raw material tank 5 can be taken out from the inside of the support assembly 4 to clean the raw material tank 5.
