Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rice blending technology, and in particular to a rice blending device with weighing and mixing functions. Background Technology
[0002] Rice is an indispensable staple food in our lives. It is a finished product made from paddy through processes such as cleaning, hulling, milling, and finishing. Rice is a major source of B vitamins and an important dietary resource for preventing beriberi and eliminating oral inflammation.
[0003] In the rice processing process, it is necessary to blend rice with different nutritional components. Generally, different varieties of rice are mixed in a certain weight ratio to enrich the product flavor and stabilize the product quality. For example, the intelligent rice blending and mixing device (announcement number CN209576355U) includes an annular support and a support plate. The lower outer surface of the annular support is fixedly installed with a support column. The front surface of the annular support has an opening groove, and the inside of the opening groove has an arc-shaped mounting groove. The support plate is located directly below the lower surface of the annular support. Both ends of the inner surface of the support plate are rotatably connected to conveying rollers. This intelligent rice blending and mixing device uses the arc-shaped mounting groove on the annular support to install and position the conical hopper. It is locked and positioned with a locking nut, which can ensure stability while allowing for annular arrangement to reduce space occupation. It also allows for adjustment of the installation spacing to avoid interference.
[0004] However, the mixing device in the above application only controls the amount of rice discharged through a valve when discharging rice, which is not convenient for quantitative weighing of rice. This makes the accuracy of rice discharging in the process low, thus affecting the discharging effect. Therefore, a rice mixing device with weighing and mixing function is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0030] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes a rice mixing device with weighing and mixing function, including a processing chamber 1, and a mixing proportioner 2 for rice mixing is provided in the processing chamber 1.
[0031] The proportioning component 2 includes a receiving bucket 21 that extends through the processing chamber 1 and slides with the processing chamber 1. There are several receiving buckets 21. The upper end of the receiving bucket 21 is open and the lower end is the discharge end. Several electronic scales 23 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the processing chamber 1, with one end extending through and to the front of the scale. A pressure plate 24 that fits against the weighing part of the electronic scale 23 is fixedly connected to the side of the receiving bucket 21 near the electronic scale 23.
[0032] In this embodiment, since the receiving bucket 21 passes through the processing chamber 1 and does not make rigid contact with the processing chamber 1, the weight of the receiving bucket 21 when receiving rice can be applied to the electronic scale 23 through the pressure plate 24, so that the operator can easily observe the amount of rice received by the receiving bucket 21, thereby improving the accuracy of the rice in the mixing process and thus improving the mixing effect.
[0033] It should be noted that a guide rod 22 is fixedly connected to the side of the receiving bucket 21 away from the electronic scale 23, with one end penetrating the processing chamber 1. The guide rod 22 penetrating the processing chamber 1 stabilizes the center of gravity of the receiving bucket 21. The end of the electronic scale 23 penetrating the processing chamber 1 is the display end, and the number of electronic scales 23 corresponds to the number and orientation of the receiving buckets 21, so that the weight of each receiving bucket 21 can correspond to one electronic scale 23.
[0034] In an optional embodiment, the processing chamber 1 is provided with a mixing component 3 located below the receiving hopper 21;
[0035] The mixing unit 3 includes a motor 31 fixedly connected to one side of the processing chamber 1. The output shaft of the motor 31 is fixedly connected to a drive shaft 310 with one end penetrating through the processing chamber 1. A guide chamber 32 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the processing chamber 1. A first conveying paddle 33 and a second conveying paddle 34 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the processing chamber 1, penetrating through and extending into the guide chamber 32. The ends of the first conveying paddle 33 and the second conveying paddle 34 near the inner wall of the processing chamber 1 penetrate through the processing chamber 1. A mixing chamber 36 communicating with the guide chamber 32 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the processing chamber 1. A rotating shaft 37 with one end penetrating through and extending to the outside of the processing chamber 1 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mixing chamber 36. A receiving port 35 is provided on the guide chamber 32 and sleeved on the discharge end of the receiving bucket 21. Several stirring rods 38 are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 37.
[0036] In this embodiment, when the rice is discharged through the discharge end of the receiving bucket 21 during the mixing process, it can be guided into the guide hopper 32 through the receiving port 35, and then conveyed in opposite directions by the first conveying paddle 33 and the second conveying paddle 34 to perform preliminary mixing of the rice. When it falls into the mixing hopper 36, it can be mixed again by the stirring rod 38 to improve the mixing effect, thereby further improving the mixing effect.
[0037] It should be noted that the middle part of the lower part of the mixing hopper 36 is connected to the discharge pipe 4 that runs through the processing hopper 1. The connection between the discharge pipe 4 and the mixing hopper 36, as well as the discharge end of the receiving hopper 21, are equipped with valves 25. The valves 25 are solenoid valves, which control the opening and closing of the discharge end of the receiving hopper 21 and the discharge pipe 4 to discharge materials.
[0038] The mixing bin 36 has a conical shape with a wider middle and narrower ends. The mixing bin 36 is located directly below the guide bin 32, and the inner top wall of the guide bin 32 is connected to the middle of the guide bin 32. This allows the rice that falls into the mixing bin 36 after the initial mixing in the guide bin 32 to always roll towards the middle of the mixing bin 36.
[0039] In an optional embodiment, the drive shaft 310 is provided with a transmission assembly for driving the first conveyor 33, the second conveyor 34 and the rotating shaft 37 to rotate synchronously. The transmission assembly includes two gears 311 that are symmetrically fixedly connected to the second conveyor 34 and the end of the drive shaft 310 that passes through the processing chamber 1. The two gears 311 mesh with each other. The end of the first conveyor 33 that passes through the processing chamber 1 and the end of the drive shaft 310 that is close to the motor 31 are provided with a first transmission member 39. The end of the second conveyor 34 and the end of the rotating shaft 37 that passes through the processing chamber 1 are provided with a second transmission member 312.
[0040] In this embodiment, after the start-up drive motor 31 drives the drive shaft 310 to rotate, the rotating drive shaft 310 can drive the first conveying paddle 33 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction through the first transmission component 39. At the same time, it can also drive the second conveying paddle 34 to rotate synchronously in the opposite direction through two meshing gears 311, so that the rotating first conveying paddle 33 and the second conveying paddle 34 convey rice towards the middle of the guide hopper 32. The rotating second conveying paddle 34 can drive the stirring rod 38 on the rotating shaft 37 to rotate synchronously through the second transmission component 312, so as to evenly stir and mix the rice that falls into the mixing hopper 36.
[0041] It should be noted that the first transmission component 39 consists of two first pulleys and a first transmission belt. The two first pulleys are respectively fixedly connected to one end of the first conveying paddle 33 that passes through the processing chamber 1 and the end of the drive shaft 310 that is close to the motor 31. The first transmission belt is sleeved on the two first pulleys, so that the rotating drive shaft 310 can drive the first conveying paddle 33 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction through the first pulleys and the first transmission belt.
[0042] The second transmission component 312 consists of two second pulleys and a second transmission belt. The two second pulleys are respectively fixedly connected to one end of the second conveying paddle 34 and the rotating shaft 37 that passes through the processing chamber 1. The second transmission belt is sleeved on the two second pulleys, so that the rotating second conveying paddle 34 can drive the rotating shaft 37 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction through the second pulleys and the second transmission belt.
[0043] The working principle in the above embodiments is as follows:
[0044] When various types of rice that require specific proportions are added into the receiving hopper 21, the valve 25 at the discharge end of the receiving hopper 21 must be closed. The weight of the corresponding type of rice received by the receiving hopper 21 will be applied to the electronic scale 23 through the pressure plate 24 and weighed by the electronic scale 23, thus facilitating quantitative weighing by the operator.
[0045] Once the rice is mixed according to the specified ratio, the valve 25 at the discharge end of the receiving hopper 21 and the motor 31 can be opened. The started motor 31 can drive the drive shaft 310 to rotate, which in turn drives the first conveyor paddle 33 and the second conveyor paddle 34 to rotate synchronously and in opposite directions through the first transmission component 39, the gear 311 and the second transmission component 312, as well as the rotating shaft 37 and the stirring rod 38 to rotate synchronously. This causes the rice in the receiving hopper 21 to fall into the guide hopper 32 along the receiving port 35. The rice is then conveyed towards the middle of the guide hopper 32 by the first conveyor paddle 33 and the second conveyor paddle 34 and then out of the guide hopper 32, before falling into the mixing hopper 36. The rice that has been conveyed out of the guide hopper 32 can be mixed for the first time, and the rice that has fallen into the mixing hopper 36 can be stirred and mixed again by the rotating stirring rod 38 to improve the uniformity of the rice ratio. Finally, the valve 25 on the discharge pipe 4 can be opened to discharge the rice.
[0046] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
