Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain powder processing technology, and in particular to a grain powder cooking device. Background Technology

[0002] Five-grain powder is a powdered product made from various grains, miscellaneous grains, beans, and medicinal and edible raw materials that have been ground and refined. It is a general term for five-grain powder products. In a broad sense, five grains include: rice, millet, brown rice, corn, glutinous rice, Job's tears, black rice, red rice, soybeans, red beans, mung beans, black beans, buckwheat, oats, wheat, sorghum, sweet potatoes, etc. Sometimes some Chinese medicinal materials are also added. These raw materials are ground and low-temperature baked into powder, collectively called five-grain powder. This kind of food, when ground into powder, is very suitable for elderly people with poor gastrointestinal function, as it is easier to digest. A grain powder cooking device with publication number CN208657881U is described. This device uses a feeding plate and a heating wire to allow the grain powder to fall freely along the feeding plate and then be cooked by heating the grain powder. However, this design relies solely on the gravity of the grain powder to move within the cooking cylinder, which cannot guarantee that the grain powder will be fully cooked. Furthermore, the cooked grain powder is directly piled up and discharged, which can easily lead to retrogradation and thus affect the quality of production and processing. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a grain flour cooking device to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0004] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A grain flour cooking device includes a support frame and a cooking cylinder fixed on the support frame. The cooking cylinder contains a stirring mechanism, which includes a first rotating shaft with a conical spiral blade mounted on its outer side. One end of the first rotating shaft is fixedly connected to a first power component. A discharge pipe and a high-temperature alarm are fixed to the upper surface of the cooking cylinder. A first solenoid valve is located on one side of the discharge pipe. A microwave generator is installed at the top inside the cooking cylinder. A discharge pipe is fixed to the lower surface of the cooking cylinder, with a second solenoid valve located on one side of the discharge pipe. An auxiliary discharge mechanism is located below the cooking cylinder. The auxiliary discharge mechanism includes a housing with a second rotating shaft inserted inside. A spiral blade is mounted on the outer side of the second rotating shaft, and one end of the second rotating shaft is fixedly connected to a second power component. A hopper is located on the housing, and fixed rods are mounted opposite each other on the outer surface of the housing.

[0006] Further configuration: The first rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the curing cylinder, and the conical spiral blade is fixed on the first rotating shaft.

[0007] Further configuration: The discharge pipe is connected to the discharge port at the top of the curing cylinder, the microwave generator is fixedly connected to the curing cylinder, and the discharge pipe is connected to the discharge port at the bottom of the curing cylinder.

[0008] Further configuration: The second rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the housing, the spiral blade is fixed on the second rotating shaft, and the hopper is fixed on the housing.

[0009] Further features: The hopper corresponds to the discharge pipe, the fixing rod is fixed on the support frame, and a discharge port is opened on the bottom side of the box.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] With the addition of a stirring mechanism and an auxiliary discharge mechanism, the first power component of the stirring mechanism drives the first rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the conical spiral blade to rotate and stir the grain powder, allowing it to fully mature. Once the grain powder is fully matured, the second solenoid valve is opened, and the matured grain powder is introduced into the hopper of the auxiliary discharge mechanism through the discharge pipe. The second power component drives the second rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the spiral blade to rotate and transport the grain powder laterally. During the transport process, the grain powder comes into contact with the outside air, which can achieve initial cooling and prevent the matured grain powder from undergoing a retrogradation reaction, thereby improving the production and processing quality of the grain powder.
