Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bran milling machine technology, specifically to a flour processing bran milling machine. Background Technology

[0002] A bran mill is a type of machine used in flour mills. It is typically used in the front and middle bran milling systems to process large bran flakes separated by the coarse screen, remove the endosperm adhering to the bran flakes, reduce the load on the subsequent bran milling, and improve grinding efficiency; or it can be used in the subsequent bran milling to remove residual flour particles on the bran, reduce the flour content of the bran, and increase the flour yield.

[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN217989396U discloses a horizontal bran mill for easy cleaning, comprising a housing, a cylinder and a rotating shaft mounted on the inner side of the housing, both of which are rotatably mounted inside the housing, a motor mounted on the outer side of the housing, the output shaft of the motor being drivenly connected to the rotating shaft, multiple rotors mounted on the side of the rotating shaft, a feed inlet mounted on the upper side of the housing, and a powder outlet and a discharge outlet mounted on the lower side of the housing, a screen mounted on the side of the cylinder, and a bracket mounted on the side of the rotating shaft. A cleaning roller is rotatably mounted on one side of the bracket, and a cleaning brush is mounted on the other side of the bracket. Both the cleaning brush and the cleaning roller are in contact with the inner wall of the cylinder. After the rotating shaft rotates, the bran and flour remaining on the inner wall of the cylinder are successively cleaned by the cleaning brush and the cleaning roller, thereby reducing the amount of bran and flour remaining in the cylinder.

[0004] However, in the above technical solution, the cleaning roller and cleaning brush connected to the rotating shaft are used to clean the bran and cotton cloth residue on the inner wall of the cylinder. However, the device will also rotate synchronously when the rotor beats the bran. Its rotation will affect the movement of the bran on the screen. At the same time, the cleaning brush will come into contact with the bran and flour, causing the brush bristles to stick to them. The brush bristles sticking to the flour and bran will make it more prone to mold. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0014] In this invention, a cleaning ring that moves along the central axis of the screening cylinder removes adhering impurities. At the same time, a striking component connected to the cleaning ring also operates synchronously. The rotating part moves continuously, causing the striking rod to rotate continuously and strike the screening cylinder and filter screen. The vibration removes bran that may be blocked in the mesh, and the vibration also causes the cleaning ring itself to vibrate to reduce flour adhesion. Attached Figure Description

The striking components include a mounting frame 9, a rotating part 10, and a striking rod 11. The mounting frame 9 is connected to the cleaning ring 7. The mounting frame 9 rotates from top to bottom to connect the striking rod 11 and the rotating part 10. The rotating part 10 contacts the striking rod 11. When the cleaning components are in use, the cleaning ring 7 and the striking components are driven by the linear motor 6 to move linearly along the screening cylinder 4. The protrusions on the rotating part 10 intermittently contact the screening cylinder 4 and rotate to push the striking rod 11 to rotate and strike the screening cylinder 4.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] like Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model proposes a flour processing bran milling machine. Compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment describes the detailed structure of the cleaning component.

[0024] In an optional embodiment, the screening cylinder 4 is divided into a sealing plate 12 and a screening plate 13. The screening cylinder 4 consists of a sealing plate 12 and a screening plate 13 from top to bottom, and the sealing plate 12 and the screening plate 13 are detachably connected.

[0025] The cleaning assembly also includes a guide rod 14 and a seal 16. The guide rod 14 is symmetrically arranged with the linear motor 6. Both ends of the guide rod 14 are connected to the frame 2. A sliding seat 15 is slidably connected to the guide rod 14, and the sliding seat 15 is connected to the cleaning ring 7. Two seals 16 are symmetrically arranged and are connected to the sliding groove opened on the screening cylinder 4.

[0026] In an optional embodiment, the seal 16 consists of a bellows cover 17 and a protective pad 18. The bellows cover 17 is connected to the sliding seat 15 or the connecting seat 8, and the protective pad 18 is connected in the sliding groove. The protective pads 18 are staggered vertically and are parallel to the bellows cover 17. The protective pad 18 is made of, but is not limited to, rubber. The bellows cover 17 is closer to the inner wall of the screening cylinder 4.

[0027] In an optional embodiment, each end of the striking bar 11 away from the mounting bracket 9 is connected to a cushioning ball 19; the cushioning ball 19 is made of, but is not limited to, rubber material to prevent damage and scratches.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, the mounting bracket 9 consists of a mounting plate 20 and a support rod 21. The mounting plate 20 is connected to the cleaning ring 7, and the support rod 21, which is arranged in parallel on the left and right, is connected to the mounting plate 20.

The outer diameter of the highest point of the cam 23 is smaller than the outer diameter of the rotating wheel 22 to prevent the cam 22 from contacting external objects and causing them to interfere with each other and affect normal operation.

[0030] In summary, when this utility model is in use, the main body 1 of the bran threshing machine is connected to external feeding and collecting equipment via flanges through its feed pipe and discharge pipe. Then, the motor on its frame 2 is started, driving the rotating shaft 3 to rotate via belt drive. As the rotating shaft 3 rotates, it drives the beating plate 5 to rotate, beating the bran falling from the feed pipe. After contacting the sealing plate 12, the bran gradually slides down and enters the area above the screening plate 13. The flour falls through the mesh of the screening plate 13 and is discharged through the discharge pipe. When maintenance of the screening cylinder 4 is required, the operator starts... A linear motor 6 drives the connecting seat 8 and the cleaning ring 7 to move along the central axis of the screening cylinder 4. When the cleaning ring 7 moves, it also drives the sliding seat 15 to slide along the guide rod 14 for guidance. The movement of the cleaning ring 7 cleans the bran and flour remaining in the screening cylinder 4. At the same time, the movement of the cleaning ring 7 drives the rotating part 10 to move. The rotating wheel 22 rotates and drives the cam 23 to rotate. The striking rod 11, which is disconnected from the cam 23, rotates around the hinge point. One end of the rod contacts the screening cylinder 4 to generate vibration, which accelerates the removal of flour and bran from the screening cylinder 4.

[0031] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
