Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of matcha powder production technology, specifically a mixing device for producing powdered brown rice matcha. Background Technology

[0002] Matcha is a powdered green tea product made from the tender leaves of tea trees grown under cover, which are steamed, dried, and then ground. Brown rice, also known as genmai, is unrefined rice that retains the bran and germ after the outer husk has been removed. It is named for its light brown or brown color. Genmai matcha can be produced by mixing powdered genmai with matcha. In order to make the two powders mix more evenly, a mixing device for producing powdered genmai matcha has been proposed.

[0003] For example, the raw material mixing device for matcha production and processing disclosed in the authorization announcement number CN213669102U includes a box body, a first motor is fixedly connected to the top of the box body, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor.

[0004] Although it achieves the function of placing materials in the box, the output shaft of the first motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring blades and crushing pulp to rotate, thereby uniformly crushing the clumped tea powder. The heat generated by the heat pipe dries the tea powder while it is being stirred, thus dehydrating the tea powder. After stirring, the output shaft of the support frame drives the second motor to rotate. The second motor meshes with the toothed plate, thereby moving the partition to the outside of the box, allowing the stirred tea powder to be discharged. Conversely, the output shaft of the support frame rotates in the opposite direction, and the partition moves into the inner cavity of the box, thus isolating the inner cavity of the box and preventing the tea powder from leaking out.

[0005] However, this does not solve the problem that existing mixing equipment is not conducive to multiple mixing of brown rice flour and matcha powder, nor to the rapid placement and discharge of materials, nor to the uniform mixing of the two different powders, thus affecting the quality of matcha powder mixing. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mixing device for producing powdered brown rice matcha, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the inconvenience of mixing devices for multiple stirring and mixing of brown rice powder and matcha powder, the difficulty in quickly placing and discharging materials, and the inconvenience of uniformly stirring and mixing two different powders, which affect the quality of matcha powder mixing.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mixing device for producing powdered brown rice matcha, comprising a drive box and a drive base. The drive box contains the drive base, and the drive base has a stepper motor mounted on its outer wall. A worm gear is mounted on the output end of the stepper motor and is movably connected to the drive base. A drive shaft is movably mounted inside the drive base on one side of the worm gear and extends to the outside of the drive box. A worm wheel is fitted on the surface of the drive shaft and meshes with the worm gear. A mixing tank is located outside the drive box and is connected to the drive shaft. Both ends of the mixing tank are equipped with servo motors, and the output ends of the servo motors are each equipped with a mixing rack.

[0008] Preferably, a discharge pipe is provided on the outer wall of the mixing tank, and the discharge pipe is connected to the mixing tank.

[0009] Preferably, a first screw and a linkage arm are respectively provided on the side wall of the discharge pipe, and a first connecting shaft is provided at the end of the first screw near the discharge pipe, and the first screw is movably connected to the discharge pipe through the first connecting shaft.

[0010] Preferably, a second connecting shaft is provided at one end of the linkage arm near the discharge pipe, and the linkage arm is movably connected to the discharge pipe through the second connecting shaft, and the first screw is slidably connected to the linkage arm.

[0011] Preferably, a second screw is provided at the center of the linkage arm, and the second screw is threadedly connected to the linkage arm.

[0012] Preferably, the second screw is provided with an opening and closing gate at one end near the discharge pipe, and the opening and closing gate is movably connected to the second screw.

[0013] Preferably, the surface of the first screw is provided with a threaded sleeve, and the threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the first screw.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the mixing equipment not only realizes multiple stirring and mixing of brown rice flour and matcha powder, which facilitates the rapid placement and discharge of materials and the uniform stirring and mixing of two different powders, but also improves the quality of matcha powder mixing.

[0015] Genmai flour and matcha powder are poured into the mixing tank through the discharge pipes. The second screw is moved, causing the linkage arm to rotate around the second connecting shaft. The second screw also causes the opening / closing gate to rotate and engage with the surface of the discharge pipe. Then, the second screw is rotated, moving within the linkage arm and causing the opening / closing gate to move and press against the surface of the discharge pipe, thus sealing it. The first screw is rotated, rotating around the first connecting shaft, to engage with the linkage arm. A threaded sleeve is then fitted onto the surface of the first screw, and rotating the sleeve secures the linkage arm to the first screw. A servo motor performs initial mixing of the genmai flour and matcha powder inside the mixing tank. A stepper motor drives the worm gear to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel. The wheel drives the drive shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the mixing tank to rotate, thus performing a secondary mixing of the genmai (brown rice flour) and matcha powder inside the tank to ensure a more uniform mixture. After mixing, the discharge pipe is rotated downwards, and then the threaded sleeve and second screw are loosened. The linkage arm is rotated, which in turn drives the opening and closing gate to open, allowing the mixed genmai and matcha powder to be discharged from the mixing tank. The mixing rack is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mixing tank, allowing it to scrape away matcha powder from the inner wall and prevent it from adhering. This multiple mixing of genmai and matcha powder facilitates quick placement and discharge of materials, and ensures uniform mixing of the two different powders, improving the quality of the mixture.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 An embodiment of this utility model provides a mixing device for producing powdered brown rice matcha, comprising a drive box 1 and a drive base 4. The drive base 4 is disposed inside the drive box 1, and a stepper motor 5 is disposed on the outer wall of the drive base 4. The stepper motor 5 serves as a power drive. A worm gear 6 is installed at the output end of the stepper motor 5, and the worm gear 6 is movably connected to the drive base 4. A drive shaft 8 is movably installed inside the drive base 4 on one side of the worm gear 6, and the drive shaft 8 extends to the outside of the drive box 1. A worm wheel 7 is fitted on the surface of the drive shaft 8, and the worm wheel 7 meshes with the worm gear 6. A mixing tank 2 is disposed outside the drive box 1, and the mixing tank 2 is connected to the drive shaft 8. Servo motors 10 are disposed at both ends of the mixing tank 2, and the servo motors 10 serve as a power drive. A mixing rack 9 is installed at the output end of each servo motor 10.

[0027] A discharge pipe 3 is provided on the outer wall of the mixing tank 2 and is connected to the mixing tank 2. A first screw 13 and a linkage arm 12 are respectively provided on the side wall of the discharge pipe 3. A first connecting shaft 15 is provided at the end of the first screw 13 near the discharge pipe 3, and the first screw 13 is movably connected to the discharge pipe 3 through the first connecting shaft 15.

[0028] A second connecting shaft 16 is provided at one end of the linkage arm 12 near the discharge pipe 3, and the linkage arm 12 is movably connected to the discharge pipe 3 through the second connecting shaft 16, and the first screw 13 is slidably connected to the linkage arm 12.

[0029] A second screw 17 is provided at the center of the linkage arm 12, and the second screw 17 is threadedly connected to the linkage arm 12. An opening and closing door 11 is provided at one end of the second screw 17 near the discharge pipe 3, and the opening and closing door 11 is movably connected to the second screw 17.

[0030] The surface of the first screw 13 is provided with a threaded sleeve 14, and the threaded sleeve 14 is threadedly connected to the first screw 13;

[0031] Genmaiko flour and matcha powder are poured into the mixing tank 2 through the discharge pipe 3. The second screw 17 is moved, causing the linkage arm 12 to rotate around the second connecting shaft 16. The second screw 17 then rotates the opening and closing gate 11, which is then locked onto the surface of the discharge pipe 3. Afterward, the second screw 17 is rotated. With the threaded connection between the second screw 17 and the linkage arm 12, and the movable cooperation between the second screw 17 and the opening and closing gate 11, the second screw 17 moves inside the linkage arm 12, thus driving the opening and closing gate. 11. Move and press against the surface of the discharge pipe 3 to close the discharge pipe 3. Rotate the first screw 13, which rotates around the first connecting shaft 15 to engage the first screw 13 inside the linkage arm 12. Then, put the threaded sleeve 14 on the surface of the first screw 13 and rotate the threaded sleeve 14. With the threaded connection between the threaded sleeve 14 and the first screw 13, the linkage arm 12 is fixed on the first screw 13. Then, turn on the servo motor 10 to control the glutinous rice flour and sesame oil inside the mixing tank 2. The tea powder undergoes initial mixing. Simultaneously, stepper motor 5 is activated, driving worm gear 6 to rotate. Through the meshing of worm gear 6 and worm wheel 7, worm gear 6 drives worm wheel 7 to rotate, which in turn drives drive shaft 8. Drive shaft 8 then rotates mixing tank 2, performing a secondary mixing of the genmai flour and matcha powder inside mixing tank 2 to ensure a more uniform mixture. After mixing is complete, the discharge pipe 3 is rotated downwards, then the threaded sleeve 14 and second screw 17 are loosened, and the linkage arm 12 is rotated. The linkage arm 12 drives the opening and closing door 11 to rotate, thereby opening the door 11. The mixed genmai matcha powder can then be discharged from the mixing tank 2. The mixing rack 9 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, allowing the mixing rack 9 to scrape the matcha powder off the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, preventing the matcha powder from adhering to the inner wall. This achieves multiple mixing of genmai powder and matcha powder, facilitating the rapid placement and discharge of materials, and ensuring uniform mixing of two different powders, thus improving the mixing quality.

[0032] Work steps

[0033] Genmai flour and matcha powder are poured into the mixing tank 2 through the discharge pipe 3. The second screw 17 is moved, causing the linkage arm 12 to rotate around the second connecting shaft 16. The second screw 17 then rotates the opening and closing gate 11, which is then locked onto the surface of the discharge pipe 3. The second screw 17 is then rotated, moving within the linkage arm 12 and causing the opening and closing gate 11 to move and press against the surface of the discharge pipe 3, thus closing it. The first screw 13 is then rotated around the first connecting shaft 15, locking itself into the linkage arm 12. A threaded sleeve 14 is then fitted onto the surface of the first screw 13. Rotating the threaded sleeve 14, with its threaded connection to the first screw 13, secures the linkage arm 12 to the first screw 13. Finally, the servo motor 10 is activated, which then moves the mixing tank 2. The genmai (brown rice flour) and matcha powder are initially mixed by a stepper motor 5 driving a worm gear 6, which in turn drives a worm wheel 7, which in turn drives a drive shaft 8. This drive shaft 8 then drives the mixing tank 2 to perform a secondary mixing process, ensuring a more uniform blend. After mixing, the discharge pipe 3 is rotated downwards, and the threaded sleeve 14 and the second screw 17 are loosened. The linkage arm 12 is then rotated, causing the opening and closing door 11 to open. The mixed genmai and matcha powder is then discharged from the mixing tank 2. The mixing rack 9 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, allowing it to scrape away matcha powder from the inner wall and prevent it from adhering, thus ensuring a cleaner discharge. This concludes the instructions for using the mixing equipment to produce powdered genmai and matcha.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
