Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing, specifically to a device for producing dried bean curd sticks with uniform slurry addition. Background Technology
[0002] Tofu skin (yuba) is not only rich in protein but also contains a variety of nutrients beneficial to the human body. Soaking it in water for 3 to 5 hours will bring out its delicious flavor. Whether paired with meat or vegetables, stir-fried, braised, grilled, cold-dressed, or used as the soul of soup, tofu skin showcases its versatile culinary charm. During the production process, tofu skin needs to be mixed with soy milk. This mixing enhances its nutritional value and texture, and ensures the formation of a uniform, high-quality tofu skin film. In current automated tofu skin and fried dough skin production equipment, a key step to maximize production efficiency is to thoroughly mix fresh and leftover soy milk and continuously feed it into the production process. This process is achieved by continuously producing and removing tofu skin in a peeling pot. As the tofu skin is continuously removed, the concentration of soy milk at the bottom of the pot gradually increases. However, the traditional method of adding soy milk is usually to pour it directly into the forming tank. This method is not only labor-intensive but also results in an uneven flow rate of soy milk within the tofu skin pot due to the concentrated and uneven distribution of soy milk addition points. This imbalance can easily lead to uneven thickness of the dried bean curd sticks during coagulation, which in turn affects the consistency and quality of the product. To address this, we have proposed a dried bean curd stick production device that uniformly adds slurry. Utility Model Content

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a tofu skin production device for uniform slurry addition, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. This uniform slurry-adding tofu skin production device uses a hinge to drive two sets of rockers to rotate. The rotation speed of the two sets of tofu skin slurry-adding buckets at the bottom of the rockers adjusts the circumferential range of the slurry during dispensing, thereby achieving uniform slurry addition and preventing uneven thickness of the tofu skin during coagulation due to uneven slurry addition, thus improving the quality and consistency of the product.
[0017] 2. This uniformly slurry-adding tofu skin production device limits the position of the two sets of tofu skin slurry-adding buckets by using arc plates on two sets of L plates. This prevents the tofu skin slurry-adding buckets from tilting due to centrifugal force during the swinging process, which would cause the slurry to be thrown out of the tofu skin production buckets. This ensures the stability of the slurry-adding process and avoids waste. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 A tofu skin production device for uniformly adding slurry includes a tofu skin production tank 1. Two sets of symmetrical and vertically oriented side plates 2 are fixedly mounted on the top of the tofu skin production tank 1. A top plate 3 is fixedly connected between the tops of the two sets of side plates 2. A drive motor 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the top plate 3. A drive gear 5 is sleeved on the output shaft of the drive motor 4. A main rod 6 extending to the bottom of the top plate 3 is rotatably mounted on the top of the top plate 3. A horizontal rod 8 is sleeved on the main rod 6. The device also includes:
[0025] The slurry-spraying assembly, which is installed at the bottom of the main rod 6, is used to evenly slurry the bean curd production barrel 1.
[0026] The limiting component, which is installed on the horizontal bar 8, is used to stabilize the slurry-slinging component during slurry slinging.
[0027] A driven gear 7 is sleeved on the top of the main rod 6. The driven gear 7 meshes with the driving gear 5. When it is necessary to add slurry to the tofu skin production barrel 1, the drive motor 4 is started first, and the output shaft of the drive motor 4 drives the driving gear 5 to rotate. The driven gear 7 meshes with the driving gear 5 to drive the main rod 6 to rotate on the top plate 3.
[0028] The limiting assembly includes a limiting disc 9, a ring 10, an L-plate 11, and an arc plate 20. The limiting disc 9 is fixed to both ends of the horizontal rod 8. Two sets of rings 10 are slidably connected to the horizontal rod 8. The bottom of each set of rings 10 is fixed to an L-plate 11. The corresponding ends of the two sets of L-plates 11 are fixed to an arc plate 20 in a semi-circular shape. The two sets of bean curd stick filling buckets 17 move away from each other during the swinging process. The movement of the two sets of bean curd stick filling buckets 17 pushes the arc plate 20.
[0029] A hinge 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the main rod 6. Both ends of the hinge 12 are provided with open slots 13. A rotating shaft 14 is fixedly connected between the inner walls of the two sets of open slots 13. The horizontal rod 8 rotates with the main rod 6. The hinge 12 starts to swing the two sets of rockers 15 through the rotation of the main rod 6.
[0030] The slurry-spraying assembly includes rocker arms 15, connecting seats 16, a bean curd stick slurry-filling tank 17, and a drive shaft 19. One end of the rocker arm 15 is sleeved on each of the two sets of rotating shafts 14, and the other end of the rocker arm 15 is sleeved on the drive shaft 19. The bean curd stick slurry-filling tank 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each of the two sets of arc plates 20. The connecting seats 16 are fixedly installed on the top of the bean curd stick slurry-filling tank 17. One end of each rocker arm 15 rotates on the rotating shaft 14 through the centrifugal force generated by the hinge 12 during its rotation. The other end of the rocker arm 15 drives the bean curd stick slurry-filling tank 17 at the bottom of the connecting seat 16 to slurry-spray through the drive shaft 19.
[0031] The slurry-scraping assembly also includes a groove 18. The top of both sets of connecting seats 16 are provided with grooves 18. The two ends of the drive shaft 19 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two sides of the groove 18. The L plate 11 drives the ring 10 to slide on the horizontal rod 8 through the arc plate 20. The arc plate 20 on the L plate 11 keeps the bean curd slurry-adding bucket 17 in a vertical state during the slurry-scraping process, preventing the bean curd slurry-adding bucket 17 from tilting and causing the slurry to be thrown out of the bean curd production bucket 1.
[0032] Working principle: When it is necessary to add slurry to the bean curd production barrel 1, the drive motor 4 is started first. The output shaft of the drive motor 4 drives the drive gear 5 to rotate. The driven gear 7 meshes with the drive gear 5, driving the main rod 6 to rotate on the top plate 3. The horizontal rod 8 follows the rotation of the main rod 6. The hinge 12 starts to swing the two sets of rockers 15 through the rotation of the main rod 6. One end of the two sets of rockers 15 rotates on the rotating shaft 14 through the centrifugal force brought by the hinge 12 during the rotation. The other end of the rockers 15 is transmitted through the transmission... The moving shaft 19 drives the bean curd pulping bucket 17 at the bottom of the connecting seat 16 to swing. During the swinging process, the two sets of bean curd pulping buckets 17 move further apart. This movement pushes the arc plate 20, and the L-plate 11, through the arc plate 20, causes the ring sleeve 10 to slide on the horizontal rod 8. The arc plate 20 on the L-plate 11 keeps the bean curd pulping bucket 17 vertical during the swinging process, preventing the pulp from being thrown out of the bean curd production bucket 1 due to tilting of the bucket. 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 variations 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.
