Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solid beverage production equipment technology, and in particular to a structure for an anti-sticking solid beverage granulation mold. Background Technology

[0002] In the solid beverage production process, granulation is a core element determining product quality and production efficiency, and the performance of the granulation die, as a key forming component, has a profound impact on the entire production process. Currently, the most widely used solid beverage granulation dies on the market mainly include stamping dies and extrusion dies. Stamping dies use the stamping action of the upper and lower dies to compress materials into granules of a specific shape; extrusion dies use screw extrusion or piston pushing to force materials through specific orifices in the die head, which are then cut into granules.

[0003] However, in existing technologies, both stamping dies and extrusion dies face serious material adhesion problems in actual production. On the one hand, solid beverage raw materials often contain sticky components such as sugar and colloids. During the granulation process, these components easily form an adhesive layer on the mold surface, making it difficult to demold the granules. This not only prolongs the single granulation cycle and reduces production efficiency, but also causes mold wear and shortens the mold's service life due to frequent demolding operations. On the other hand, the phenomenon of granules sticking together during the granulation process is also extremely common, especially in humid and hot environments. The moisture on the surface of the granules does not easily evaporate, and the sticky components are exposed. The granules stick together due to contact, forming clumps, which seriously affects the uniformity and flowability of the product. Utility Model Content

The powder spraying mechanism includes a connecting frame, and a powder spraying component is installed through both ends of the connecting frame.

[0006] The drying mechanism includes a drying chamber, with drying cylinders installed through both sides of the drying chamber. Heating components are installed inside both drying cylinders, and two fans are installed through one side of each drying cylinder.

[0017] 3. In this utility model, with the cooperation of the telescopic component and the cutting component, the telescopic component will drive the cutting component to move, so that the cutting component moves back and forth at the lower outlet end of the lower mold, thereby cutting off the discharged particles and thus controlling the size of the particles.

[0023] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0024] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0025] Example 1: As Figure 1 - Figure 4As shown, this utility model provides a structure for an anti-sticking solid beverage granulation mold, including a support frame plate 1, a lower mold 13 is provided inside the support frame plate 1, a powder spraying mechanism 2 is provided at the lower end of the lower mold 13, a drying mechanism 3 is provided at the lower end of the powder spraying mechanism 2, and a spraying mechanism 4 is provided at both ends of the support frame plate 1. The powder spraying mechanism 2 includes a connecting frame 21, and a powder spraying component 22 is installed through both ends of the connecting frame 21. Two sets of long slots 23 are opened at the upper end of the connecting frame 21, and the upper end of the connecting frame 21 is fixed to the lower end of the lower mold 13.

[0026] The drying mechanism 3 includes a drying box 31, with drying cylinders 32 installed through both sides of the drying box 31. Heating components 33 are installed inside the two sets of drying cylinders 32. Two sets of fans 34 are installed through one side of the two sets of drying cylinders 32. A discharge hole 35 is opened through the lower end of the drying box 31. The upper end of the drying box 31 is fixed to the lower end of the connecting frame 21.

[0027] The spraying mechanism 4 includes a bidirectional cylinder 41. Guide frames 42 are fixedly installed at both ends of the support frame plate 1. Guide cylinders 43 are slidably inserted into the interior of both sets of guide frames 42. Spraying systems 45 are fixedly installed at one end of both sets of guide cylinders 43, and bidirectional spraying pipes 46 are fixedly installed at the other end of both sets of guide cylinders 43. Connecting frames 44 are fixedly installed at the upper end of both sets of spraying systems 45. One end of each set of bidirectional cylinders 41 is fixed to one end of one set of connecting frames 44. The lower end of each set of bidirectional cylinders 41 is fixed to the upper end of the support frame plate 1. The other end of each set of bidirectional cylinders 41 is fixed to one end of the other set of connecting frames 44.

[0028] The specific settings and functions of this embodiment are described in detail below. A connecting frame 21 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the lower mold 13. The connecting frame 21 has a rectangular frame structure, and powder spraying components 22 are installed through both ends of its horizontal direction. Each powder spraying component 22 includes a powder spraying chamber and an atomizing nozzle. The powder spraying chamber is connected to an external anti-adhesion powder storage tank through a pipe. The nozzle adopts a fan-shaped spray design. The powder is atomized by air pressure and sprayed at a wide angle of 120° to ensure that the falling solid beverage particles can be evenly covered by the anti-adhesion powder. The nozzle of the powder spraying component 22 is tilted 15° toward the central axis of the connecting frame 21 so that the powder forms a cross-coverage area in space to avoid the occurrence of spraying blind spots.

[0029] The drying chamber 31 has a rectangular structure. Its top is sealed to the bottom of the connecting frame 21 through a flange, forming a continuous channel for particle falling. Drying cylinders 32 are symmetrically installed through the left and right side walls of the drying chamber 31. Each set of drying cylinders 32 includes inner and outer double-layer sleeves: the inner layer is a hot air conveying channel, and the outer layer is a heat insulation layer. The heating component 33 installed inside the drying cylinder 32 uses PTC ceramic heating plates with spiral heat dissipation fins wrapped around its surface, which can quickly improve the heat exchange efficiency. Two sets of fans 34 are installed through the outer ports of each of the two sets of drying cylinders 32. The four sets of fans 34 are arranged in a staggered manner, with the odd-numbered fans 34 rotating clockwise and the even-numbered fans 34 rotating counterclockwise. Through the airflow counter-current effect, the hot air forms a three-dimensional spiral upward airflow inside the drying chamber 31, ensuring that the particles are in full contact with the hot air during the falling process. A funnel-shaped discharge hole 35 is opened through the bottom of the drying chamber 31. Its inner wall is provided with a polytetrafluoroethylene anti-stick coating. The hole diameter gradually narrows from top to bottom, which facilitates the rapid sliding of dried particles.

[0030] Two sets of bidirectional cylinders 41 are fixedly installed at the center of the upper end of the support plate 1. The telescopic rods of the bidirectional cylinders 41 extend horizontally to the left and right sides respectively. The two ends of the support plate 1 are vertically welded with guide frames 42, which achieve low-friction sliding cooperation with the guide cylinder 43. The guide cylinder 43 is made of hollow aluminum alloy.

[0031] The outer ends of the two sets of guide cylinders 43 are fixedly installed with a spraying system 45, which includes a powder mixing chamber and a precision metering pump. The other end of the guide cylinder 43 is equipped with a bidirectional spraying pipe 46. The bidirectional cylinder 41 drives the spraying system 45 to reciprocate along the guide frame 42, which can perform additional spraying operations on the interior of different upper molds 12 and lower molds 13.

[0032] Two sets of long slots 23 are opened at the upper end of the connecting box 21, and the setting of the long slots 23 facilitates the normal use of the telescopic component 14.

[0033] Example 2: Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, telescopic components 14 are fixedly installed at both ends of the lower mold 13, and a cutting component 15 is provided at the lower end of the lower mold 13. The telescopic ends of the two sets of telescopic components 14 are fixed to the upper end of the cutting component 15. A power system 11 is installed through the upper end of the support frame plate 1, and an upper mold 12 is fixedly installed at the extended end of the power system 11. The upper mold 12 is located above the lower mold 13.

[0034] The overall effect of this embodiment is that a power system 11 is installed through the support frame plate 1, an upper mold 12 is installed at the extended end of the power system 11, and the upper mold 12 is located above the lower mold 13. The power system 11 drives the upper mold 12 to move up and down, and inserts a part of the upper mold 12 into the interior of the lower mold 13, which can squeeze out the material inside the lower mold 13.

[0035] By installing telescopic components 14 at both ends of the lower mold 13, and setting a cutting component 15 at the lower discharge port of the lower mold 13, and fixing the movable ends of the two sets of telescopic components 14 to the upper end of the cutting component 15, by controlling the two sets of telescopic components 14, the two sets of telescopic components 14 can drive the cutting component 15 to move, so that the cutting component 15 can move at the discharge port of the lower mold 13 and cut the particles.

[0036] The operating method and working principle of this device are as follows: First, by activating the bidirectional cylinder 41, it is driven to reciprocate and move horizontally, while simultaneously operating two sets of spraying systems 45. The spraying systems 45 are guided into the interior of two sets of bidirectional spraying pipes 46 through two sets of guide cylinders 43 and sprayed out from inside. Through horizontal movement, the interior of both the upper mold 12 and the lower mold 13 can be sprayed to ensure an anti-sticking effect. Then, the evenly mixed solid beverage material is filled into the cavity of the lower mold 13. At this time, the power system 11 installed on the support plate 1 starts to work, driving the upper mold 12, which is connected to the protruding end, to move downward in the vertical direction. The granulation column at the bottom of the upper mold 12 is precisely inserted into the corresponding cavity of the lower mold 13. The upper mold 12 can apply stable and uniform pressure to the material in the cavity, extruding and shaping the material, and extruding it from the outlet of the lower mold 13 to form strip-shaped material. When the strip-shaped material is extruded from the outlet of the lower mold 13... After a certain length, the telescopic components 14 at both ends of the lower mold 13 are controlled to move, driving the cutting component 15, which is fixedly connected to the movable end, to a suitable cutting position. Finally, after the particles are cut, anti-adhesion treatment begins. The powder spraying component 22 at both ends of the connecting frame 21 at the lower end of the lower mold 13 is activated, and the powder forms a cross-covering area in the space, ensuring that the falling particles can be evenly sprayed and forming an isolation layer on the particle surface. Subsequently, the particles fall into the drying chamber 31 below through the connecting frame 21. The heating components 33 in the drying cylinders 32 on both sides of the drying chamber 31 generate heat, and four sets of staggered fans 34 blow hot air into the interior of the drying chamber 31 in the form of a three-dimensional spiral upward airflow. The particles come into full contact with the hot air during the falling process, and the surface moisture evaporates quickly, further reducing the risk of adhesion. The dried particles are discharged through the funnel-shaped discharge hole 35 at the bottom of the drying chamber 31 for easy collection.

[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model without departing from the technical solution of this utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
