Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bran powder processing technology, specifically to a bran powder screening and grading device. Background Technology

[0002] Rice processing includes processes such as bran removal, milling, color sorting, and polishing. The white rice grading screen is a device used to separate broken rice of different sizes from whole rice grains produced during paddy processing. Grading is a post-processing step in rice preparation and is widely used in the grain processing field.

[0003] The process of separating bulk materials into different particle sizes by passing them through one or more screens is called screening. A screening machine is a vibrating screening device that uses the relative motion between the bulk material and the screen surface to allow some particles to pass through the screen openings, separating materials such as sand, gravel, and crushed stone into different grades according to particle size. The screening process is generally continuous. After the raw material is fed onto the screening machine (referred to as the screen), materials smaller than the screen opening size pass through the screen openings and are called undersize products; materials larger than the screen opening size are continuously discharged from the screen surface and are called oversize products.

[0004] Traditional bran screening equipment generally suffers from low efficiency and low screening accuracy, which prevents bran from achieving the ideal particle size distribution during processing, affecting its effectiveness in food processing, feed production, and daily chemical products. Utility Model Content

[0025] The grading and screening mechanism includes a rotating screen 6, stirring blades 7, connecting pipe 21, base 13, base plate 18, motor 15, rotating shaft 16, connecting rod 19, and scraper. Motor 15 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the processing box 1, and its output end is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 16. Base plate 18 is fixedly installed at the top of rotating shaft 16. Scraper is fixedly installed on the outer wall of base plate 18. Bottom connecting rod 19 connects base plate 18 and bottom base 13, and top connecting rod 19 connects bottom stirring blades 7 and top base 13. Connecting pipe 21 connects base 13 and rotating screen 6. Stirring blades 7 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of rotating screen 6. Two sets of rotating screen 6 are provided, with the top being a fine mesh and the bottom... The bottom plate 18 has a coarse mesh and a conical seat 17 on its top. A grading and screening mechanism is provided. When in use, turning on the motor 15 causes the rotating shaft 16 to rotate the bottom plate 18, which in turn causes the connecting rod 19 to rotate the base 13, connecting pipe 21, and rotating mesh 6. Multiple sets of the base 13, connecting pipe 21, and rotating mesh 6 are provided, achieving a grading and screening effect. The stirring blades 7 on the rotating mesh 6 help to evenly distribute the bran powder and accelerate its movement within the rotating mesh 6.

The device is connected to an external power supply to provide power to the device. The device is connected to an external controller, which is electrically connected to the motor 15 and the exhaust fan 10.

[0027] The storage mechanism includes a mounting frame 23, filter cotton 12, cover plate 9, exhaust fan 10, filter screen, and protective cotton 11. The mounting frame 23 is fixedly fitted onto the outside of the processing box 1, and a filter screen is provided between the mounting frame 23 and the processing box 1 for separation and communication.
