Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pickled mustard tuber production technology, specifically a pickled mustard tuber steaming machine. Background Technology

[0002] Pickled mustard tuber, a popular traditional fermented vegetable, is loved by consumers for its fresh, fragrant, crisp, and refreshing taste. It is typically made from mustard greens through a series of processing steps including pickling, dehydration, and seasoning. The dehydration process after pickling is crucial; its purpose is to remove excess water, achieving the appropriate moisture content for subsequent processing and packaging, while also improving the taste and quality of the pickled mustard tuber.

[0003] Currently, existing methods for dehydrating pickled mustard tubers have certain limitations. After pickling, the tubers typically require manual dehydration before proceeding to the next processing step. This method is not only inefficient and increases labor costs, but the instability and arbitrariness of manual operation can also lead to inconsistent dehydration results, affecting the final quality and consistency of the pickled mustard tubers. Furthermore, manual dehydration makes it difficult to precisely control the degree of dehydration, easily resulting in over- or under-dehydration. Over-dehydration deteriorates the taste of the pickled mustard tubers, while under-dehydration can lead to microbial growth during subsequent processing, affecting the shelf life and safety of the tubers.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a pickled mustard tuber steaming machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pickled mustard tuber steaming machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

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

[0007] A pickled mustard tuber removal machine includes a pickling tank, a pickling cage, and a removal machine body, wherein:

[0008] The top of the pickling tank has an opening;

[0009] The top of the pickling cage has an opening for placing pickled mustard tubers, and the pickling cage has several water-permeable holes through its structure. Several hanging rings are installed on the top side of the pickling cage.

[0010] The pickling machine body includes a support frame and a lifting mechanism and a dehydration mechanism installed on the support frame. The lifting mechanism is used to lift the pickling cage, and the dehydration mechanism is used to dehydrate the pickled mustard tubers inside the pickling cage.

[0011] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a mounting frame fixed to the top of the support, a horizontal rotating rod rotatably mounted on the mounting frame, two spools fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod, each spool wound with a lifting rope, and a hook fixed to one end of each lifting rope for connecting with the lifting ring. A drive motor with its output end fixed to one end of the rotating rod is mounted on the top of the support.

[0012] Furthermore, the number of lifting rings is four and they are arranged in a rectangular shape, the end of the lifting rope is fixed with a U-shaped rod with the opening facing downwards, and the number of hooks is four and they are respectively installed at both ends of two of the U-shaped rods.

[0013] Furthermore, the dehydration mechanism includes a primary dehydration component and a secondary dehydration component. There are two primary dehydration components, which are symmetrically installed on the support. The two primary dehydration components are located on opposite sides of the pickling cage. Each primary dehydration component includes an electromagnetic vibrator fixed on the support. Two striking plates are fixed on the top side of the pickling cage, and the two striking plates correspond to the two electromagnetic vibrators. A signal receiver is provided on the striking plate, and a signal transmitter is provided on the support. When the lifting mechanism raises the pickling cage to the point of detachment from the pickling liquid, the signal transmitter and signal receiver correspond, and the electromagnetic vibrator operates to strike the striking plates.

[0014] Furthermore, a spring is fixed to the vibration end of the electromagnetic vibrator, and a striking block that contacts the striking plate is fixed to one end of the spring.

[0015] Furthermore, the secondary dehydration assembly includes an electric push rod that is vertically fixed on the bracket. The output end of the electric push rod faces downward and is fixed with a pressure plate, which is located directly above the pickling cage.

[0016] Furthermore, a buffer plate is movably disposed below the pressure plate, and a plurality of evenly distributed springs are connected between the buffer plate and the pressure plate.

[0017] Furthermore, a guide rod with its end movable through the pressure plate is fixed to the top of the buffer plate.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. After the pickled mustard tuber is pickled, there is no need for manual dehydration. The lifting mechanism of the machine body can directly lift the pickling cage, and the dehydration mechanism can automatically dehydrate the pickled mustard tuber in the pickling cage, eliminating the tedious manual dehydration process, greatly improving production efficiency and significantly reducing labor costs.

[0020] 2. The dehydration mechanism consists of a primary dehydration component and a secondary dehydration component. The primary dehydration component uses an electromagnetic vibrator and a striking plate in conjunction to effectively shake off excess water from the surface of the pickled mustard tuber. Through the corresponding control of the signal transmitter and receiver, the working timing of the electromagnetic vibrator is precisely controlled, ensuring that the pickling cage undergoes initial dehydration promptly after being removed from the pickling liquid. The secondary dehydration component uses an electric push rod to drive the pressure plate and buffer plate downwards. A spring between the buffer plate and the pressure plate applies sufficient pressure to achieve deep dehydration while preventing damage due to excessive pressure. This effectively solves the problem of accurately controlling the degree of dehydration in manual dehydration, ensuring the taste and quality of the pickled mustard tuber. It also avoids the risk of microbial growth during subsequent processing due to insufficient dehydration, extending the shelf life of the pickled mustard tuber and ensuring product safety.

[0021] 3. The pickling cage in this solution has several permeable holes. During the lifting process, the water inside the pickling cage can be naturally discharged through the permeable holes. Combined with the functions of the primary and secondary dehydration components, the dehydration of the pickled mustard tuber can be more uniform, avoiding the uneven dehydration that may be caused by manual dehydration. This ensures the consistency of quality and taste of each batch of pickled mustard tuber and improves the overall quality stability of the processed pickled mustard tuber products.

[0022] 4. The lifting mechanism in this solution adopts a winch structure composed of a mounting frame, rotating rod, winding drum, lifting rope, and drive motor. Combined with four rectangularly distributed lifting rings and four corresponding hooks, it can stably and securely lift the pickling cages, ensuring the stability of the lifting process and avoiding problems such as spillage of pickled vegetables or shaking of the pickling cages caused by unstable lifting. This improves the safety and reliability of equipment operation. At the same time, the overall structure of the lifting machine is rationally designed, with tight and secure connections between components, enabling stable operation during long-term pickled vegetable processing. This reduces equipment failure maintenance costs and downtime, further improving production efficiency and the company's economic benefits. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] This application provides a pickled mustard tuber dehydration machine, mainly to address the limitations of existing pickled mustard tuber dehydration methods. After pickling, pickled mustard tubers typically require manual dehydration before proceeding to the next processing step. This method is not only inefficient and increases labor costs, but the instability and randomness of manual operation can also lead to inconsistent dehydration results, affecting the final quality and consistency of the pickled mustard tubers. Furthermore, manual dehydration makes it difficult to precisely control the degree of dehydration, easily resulting in over- or under-dehydration. Over-dehydration deteriorates the taste of the pickled mustard tubers, while under-dehydration may lead to microbial growth during subsequent processing, affecting the shelf life and safety of the pickled mustard tubers. The following technical solution is provided, which will be discussed in conjunction with... Figures 1-4 Please provide a detailed explanation:

[0030] A pickled mustard tuber removal machine mainly includes a pickling tank 1, a pickling cage 2, and a removal machine body 3, wherein:

[0031] The top of the pickling tank 1 has an opening to facilitate the insertion and removal of the pickling cage 2;

[0032] The top structure of the pickling cage 2 has an opening for placing pickled mustard tubers. The pickling cage 2 has several water-permeable holes 21 through the structure to facilitate the drainage of water during the process of removing the pickling cage. Several hanging rings 22 are installed on the top side of the pickling cage 2.

[0033] The main body 3 of the pickling machine includes a support 31 and a lifting mechanism 32 and a dehydration mechanism 33 mounted on the support 31. The lifting mechanism 32 is used to lift the pickling cage 2, and the dehydration mechanism 33 is used to dehydrate the pickled mustard tubers inside the pickling cage 2. When the pickling cage 2 is lifted to a suitable position, the dehydration mechanism 33 starts working, effectively removing excess water from the pickled mustard tubers. This pickled mustard tuber pickling machine achieves automated dehydration of the pickled mustard tubers, eliminating the need for manual dehydration, greatly improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs. At the same time, due to the synergistic effect of the lifting mechanism 32 and the dehydration mechanism 33, the stability and uniformity of the dehydration process can be guaranteed, avoiding the problem of inconsistent dehydration results in manual dehydration, improving the final quality and consistency of the pickled mustard tubers, and effectively solving the shortcomings of existing pickled mustard tuber dehydration methods such as low efficiency, high cost, and unstable dehydration effect.

[0034] For details, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lifting mechanism 32 includes a mounting frame 321 fixed to the top of the bracket 31. A horizontal rotating rod 322 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 321. Two winding drums 323 are fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod 322. A lifting rope 324 is wound on each of the two winding drums 323. A hook 325 is fixed to one end of each of the two lifting ropes 324. The hook 325 is used to connect with the lifting ring 22. A drive motor 326 with its output end fixed to one end of the rotating rod 322 is installed on the top of the bracket 31.

[0035] In specific operation, when it is necessary to lift the pickling cage 2, the drive motor 326 starts and drives the rotating rod 322 to rotate. At the same time as the rotating rod 322 rotates, the winding drum 323 follows, causing the lifting rope 324 to be wound up. One end of the lifting rope 324 is fixed with a hook 325, which is connected to the lifting ring 22 on the pickling cage 2. The rotation direction of the rotating rod 322 is controlled by the forward and reverse rotation of the drive motor 326, thereby realizing the winding and unwinding of the lifting rope 324, and thus controlling the rise and fall of the pickling cage 2. During the lifting process, the mounting frame 321 provides stable support for the rotating rod 322, ensuring the smooth rotation of the rotating rod 322 and ensuring the stability of the lifting process. The lifting mechanism 32, driven by the drive motor 326 to drive the winch device, can accurately control the lifting height and speed of the pickling cage 2, effectively improving the safety, stability and automation of the lifting operation, reducing manual operation, reducing labor intensity, laying the foundation for the smooth progress of the subsequent dehydration process, and improving the production efficiency and operational reliability of the entire pickled mustard tuber lifting machine.

[0036] Furthermore, there are four lifting rings 22 arranged in a rectangular pattern. This layout is compatible with the shape of the pickling cage 2, which ensures uniform force during the lifting process and prevents the pickling cage 2 from swaying or tilting due to uneven force, thereby improving the stability and safety of the lifting. The end of the lifting rope 324 is fixed with a U-shaped rod 327 with the opening facing downwards. There are four hooks 325, which are installed at both ends of the two U-shaped rods 327 respectively.

[0037] When installing the hooks 325, the U-shaped rods 327 with their openings facing downwards can stably fix the hooks 325 to the end of the lifting ropes 324. At the same time, the four hooks 325 are respectively installed at both ends of the two U-shaped rods 327. This design not only ensures the firmness of the connection between the hooks 325 and the lifting ropes 324, but also facilitates quick and accurate connection with the four lifting rings 22 on the top side of the pickling cage 2. During the lifting process, the four hooks 325 are evenly distributed, which can stably lift the pickling cage 2 and prevent damage to the pickling cage 2 or spillage of the pickled mustard tuber due to excessive local force. This effectively protects the integrity of the pickled mustard tuber and reduces losses during the production process. At the same time, this connection method improves the convenience and reliability of the lifting operation, reduces the preparation work before lifting and the adjustment time during the lifting process, and further improves the working efficiency of the pickled mustard tuber lifting machine.

[0038] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The dehydration mechanism 33 includes a primary dehydration component 331 and a secondary dehydration component 332. There are two primary dehydration components 331, which are symmetrically installed on the support 31. The two primary dehydration components 331 are located on opposite sides of the pickling cage 2. This layout allows the dehydration operation to process the opposite sides of the pickling cage 2 at the same time, thus improving the dehydration efficiency.

[0039] The primary dehydration component 331 includes an electromagnetic vibrator 3311 fixed on a support 31. Two striking plates 23 are fixed on the top side of the pickling cage 2, and the two striking plates 23 correspond to the two electromagnetic vibrators 3311 respectively. A signal receiver is provided on the striking plate 23, and a signal transmitter is provided on the support 31. When the lifting mechanism 32 drives the pickling cage 2 to rise to the point of being detached from the pickling liquid, the signal transmitter and the signal receiver correspond at this time, and the electromagnetic vibrator 3311 works to strike the striking plate 23. A spring 3312 is fixed on the vibrating end of the electromagnetic vibrator 3311, and a striking block 3313 that contacts the striking plate 23 is fixed on one end of the spring 3312. When the electromagnetic vibrator 3311 vibrates, the vibration is transmitted to the striking plate 23 through the spring 3312 and the striking block 3313, thereby performing preliminary dehydration on the pickled mustard tuber in the pickling cage 2.

[0040] The design of this primary dehydration component 331 effectively utilizes vibration energy to loosen and expel moisture from the surface of the pickled mustard tuber through tapping. The two symmetrically installed electromagnetic vibrators 3311 ensure that the pickling cage 2 is subjected to uniform force, avoiding damage to the pickled mustard tuber that may be caused by excessive local vibration. At the same time, the cooperation between the signal transmitter and receiver ensures that the electromagnetic vibrators 3311 start at the correct time, improving the automation and precision of the dehydration process, ensuring the consistency and stability of the dehydration effect, preparing for the subsequent secondary dehydration, and improving the efficiency and quality of the entire dehydration process.

[0041] In this scheme, the electromagnetic vibrator 3311 generates high-frequency vibration after being powered on. Through the spring 3312 and the striking block 3313 at its vibrating end, the vibration energy is transmitted to the striking plate 23, thereby producing a striking effect on the striking plate 23. This striking can cause the pickled mustard tuber in the pickling cage 2 to be vibrated and impacted, causing the water on the surface of the pickled mustard tuber to loosen and be discharged from the water permeable hole 21, thus achieving the effect of preliminary dehydration.

[0042] Furthermore, the secondary dehydration component 332 includes an electric push rod 3321 vertically fixed on the bracket 31. The output end of the electric push rod 3321 faces downward and is fixed with a pressure plate 3322. The pressure plate 3322 is located directly above the pickling cage 2. The pressure plate 3322 is driven to descend by the electric push rod 3321, which can drain the water from the pickled mustard tuber.

[0043] A buffer plate 3323 is movably arranged below the pressure plate 3322. Several evenly distributed springs 3324 are connected between the buffer plate 3323 and the pressure plate 3322. A guide rod 3325 with its end movably passing through the pressure plate 3322 is fixed to the top of the buffer plate 3323.

[0044] After the primary dehydration component 331 performs initial dehydration on the pickled mustard tubers in the pickling cage 2, the electric push rod 3321 receives a signal and starts. Its output end drives the pressure plate 3322 to move downward. During the downward movement of the pressure plate 3322, the buffer plate 3323 first contacts the pickled mustard tubers in the pickling cage 2. As the pressure plate 3322 continues to press down, the second spring 3324 is compressed, generating a buffering effect. This allows the buffer plate 3323 to apply uniform and moderate pressure to the pickled mustard tubers, preventing damage due to excessive pressure and ensuring that the pickled mustard tubers maintain good quality during the dehydration process. At the same time, the guide rod 3325 passes through the pressure plate 3322 and can move along the through hole on the pressure plate 3322, providing guidance for the movement of the buffer plate 3323. This ensures the stability and verticality of the buffer plate 3323 during the downward pressing process, further improving the uniformity and consistency of the dehydration effect. Through the action of the secondary dehydration component 332, the moisture content of the pickled mustard tubers is further reduced on the basis of the primary dehydration, achieving a deeper dehydration effect and meeting the moisture content requirements of subsequent processing of the pickled mustard tubers.

[0045] When using this pickled mustard tuber lifting machine, first place the pickling cage 2 filled with pickled mustard tuber into the pickling tank 1 for pickling. After pickling, start the lifting mechanism 32 of the lifting machine body 3, power on the drive motor 326 and drive the rotating rod 322 to rotate. The winding drum 323 rotates accordingly, and the lifting rope 324 is wound up. The hook 325 at its end is connected to the lifting ring 22 on the top side of the pickling cage 2 to achieve stable lifting of the pickling cage 2. When the pickling cage 2 is lifted to the point of being removed from the pickling liquid, the dehydration mechanism 33 starts to work.

[0046] The first-stage dehydration component 331 is started first. The signal transmitter on the bracket 31 corresponds to the signal receiver on the knocking plate 23 on the top side of the pickling cage 2, triggering the electromagnetic vibrator 3311 to work. The high-frequency vibration generated by the electromagnetic vibrator 3311 is transmitted to the knocking plate 23 through the spring 3312 and the knocking block 3313, which performs preliminary vibration dehydration on the pickled mustard tuber in the pickling cage 2.

[0047] After the initial dehydration is completed, the secondary dehydration component 332 takes over to perform deep dehydration. The electric push rod 3321, which is vertically fixed on the bracket 31, receives the signal and starts. Its output end drives the pressure plate 3322 to move downward. The buffer plate 3323 below the pressure plate 3322 first contacts the pickled mustard tuber. As the pressure plate 3322 continues to press down, the second spring 3324 is compressed, which produces a buffering effect. This allows the buffer plate 3323 to apply uniform and appropriate pressure to the pickled mustard tuber, avoiding damage to the pickled mustard tuber due to excessive pressure. At the same time, the guide rod 3325 provides guidance for the movement of the buffer plate 3323, ensuring the stability and verticality of the pressing process, and further improving the uniformity and consistency of the dehydration effect.

[0048] 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.
