Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain processing technology, and more specifically, to a grain processing circulating cooling chamber. Background Technology
[0002] Grains are a general term for cereal plants or food crops, covering a wide range, including rice, wheat, millet, soybeans, and other miscellaneous grains. They are mainly plant seeds and fruits and are the traditional staple food of many Asian people.
[0003] A grain processing circulating cooling bin disclosed in Publication No. CN218007136U is described. This technology includes "support legs, an installation platform fixedly mounted on the upper part of the support legs, a cooling bin penetrating the center of the installation platform, ventilation holes smaller than the average particle size of the grain evenly distributed on the bin wall, air chambers symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the cooling bin, a feed inlet at the upper part of the cooling bin, a collection bin at the lower part, a discharge outlet at the lower part of the collection bin, and fans symmetrically arranged on the upper part of the installation platform. The output end of the fans is provided with an air duct, which passes through one side of the air chamber. This technology solves the problems of slow cooling rate, long production cycle, and low efficiency caused by relying on natural air drying for cooling after grain processing in traditional methods."
[0004] However, the aforementioned grain processing circulating cooling chamber has the following drawbacks:
[0005] 1. In the cooling chamber of this patent, after the grain enters the cooling chamber, it falls naturally under the action of gravity and is cooled through the air chamber. However, during the operation, because the grain enters the cooling chamber directly through the feed inlet, the grain cannot be evenly distributed when falling. The accumulated grain cannot fully contact the cold air, which leads to uneven cooling and affects the quality of the grain.
[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a grain processing circulating cooling chamber. Utility Model Content
[0007] In response to the problems in related technologies, this utility model provides a grain processing circulating cooling chamber that allows grain to fall more evenly, enabling it to fully contact the cold air and improve grain quality.
[0008] Therefore, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0009] A grain processing circulating cooling bin includes a cooling bin body, a feeding component, and a cooling component. The feeding component is installed at the upper end of the cooling bin body, and a collection bin is connected to the bottom end of the cooling bin body. The cooling component is installed in the inner cavity of the cooling bin body.
[0010] The cooling component includes a material distribution plate with six sets of material discharge holes. The bottom of each set of material discharge holes is connected to a spiral feeder. An air outlet is connected to the side wall of the middle support of the spiral feeder. The air outlet is connected to an air supply pipe in the inner cavity of the support. The bottom end of the air supply pipe passes through the bottom wall of the support and is connected to an annular pipe. One end of the air conveying pipe is connected to the side wall of the annular pipe. The other end of the air conveying pipe passes through the side wall of the cooling chamber and is connected to the main body of the air cooler.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the main body of the air cooler is mounted on the equipment plate via a base, and the equipment plate is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the collection silo.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the outlet of the air outlet on the side wall of the support column faces the bottom wall of the feed trough of the spiral feeder.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the bottom end of the collection bin is connected to a discharge port, and a support column is also installed on the outer wall of the collection bin.
[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the feeding assembly includes a feeding hopper, which is installed on the upper end of the distributing plate. A support is installed on the upper end of the feeding hopper, and a speed reduction device passes through the middle of the support.
[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the top end of the deceleration device is connected to the output end of the drive motor, the bottom end of the deceleration device is connected to a rotating shaft, the bottom end of the rotating shaft is equipped with stirring blades, and the drive motor is installed at the upper middle part of the support.
[0016] As a further embodiment of this invention, the stirring blades are used in conjunction with the distributing disc.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] This utility model utilizes a cooling chamber, a feeding assembly, and a cooling assembly that work together. During use, the stirring blades in the feeding assembly, driven by a motor, can stir the grain in the feeding hopper. This not only pre-treats the grain but also assists it in passing through the discharge holes on the distribution plate. Furthermore, there are six sets of spiral feeders and discharge holes. The spiral feeder extends the grain's falling time, resulting in a more even distribution of the falling grain and ensuring sufficient contact between the grain and the incoming cold air, thereby improving grain quality.

[0028] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a grain processing circulating cooling chamber is provided.
[0029] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figure 1-5According to an embodiment of the present invention, a grain processing circulating cooling bin includes a cooling bin body 1, a feeding assembly 2, and a cooling assembly 3. The feeding assembly 2 is installed at the upper end of the cooling bin body 1, and a collection bin 4 is connected to the bottom end of the cooling bin body 1. The cooling assembly 3 is installed in the inner cavity of the cooling bin body 1. The cooling assembly 3 includes a distribution plate 5, on which six sets of discharge holes 6 are opened, and the bottom end of each set of discharge holes 6 is connected to a spiral feeder 7. An air outlet 9 is connected to the side wall of the central support column 8 of the spiral feeder 7. The outlet 9 on the side wall of the support column 8 faces the bottom wall of the feed trough of the screw feeder 7. The outlet 9 is connected to the air supply pipe 10 in the inner cavity of the support column 8. The bottom end of the air supply pipe 10 passes through the bottom wall of the support column 8 and is connected to the annular pipe 11. One end of the air conveying pipe 12 is connected to the side wall of the annular pipe 11. The other end of the air conveying pipe 12 passes through the side wall of the cooling chamber 1 and is connected to the main body of the air cooler 13. The main body of the air cooler 13 is mounted on the equipment plate 14 by a base. The equipment plate 14 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the collection bin 4. The cooling chamber 1, feeding assembly 2, and cooling assembly 3 work together. During use, the stirring blades 206 in the feeding assembly 2, driven by the drive motor 204, can stir the grain in the feeding hopper 201. This not only pre-treats the grain but also helps the grain pass through the discharge holes 6 on the distribution plate 5. There are six sets of spiral feeders 7 and discharge holes 6. The spiral feeders 7 can extend the grain falling time, which not only makes the falling grain more evenly distributed but also allows the grain to fully contact the incoming cold air, thereby improving the quality of the grain.
[0030] In one embodiment, please refer to the appendix to the specification. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As a further embodiment of this utility model, the bottom end of the collection bin 4 is connected to a discharge port 15, and a support column 16 is also installed on the outer wall of the collection bin 4. The discharge port 15 facilitates the discharge of cooled grains from the collection bin 4, while the support column 16 provides good support for the collection bin 4 and the cooling bin.
[0031] In one embodiment, please refer to the appendix to the specification. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As a further embodiment of this utility model, the feeding assembly 2 includes a feeding hopper 201, which is installed on the upper end of the distributing plate 5. A support 202 is installed on the upper end of the feeding hopper 201, and a speed reduction device 203 passes through the middle of the support 202. The top end of the speed reduction device 203 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 204, and a rotating shaft 205 is drivenly connected to the bottom end of the speed reduction device 203. A stirring blade 206 is installed at the bottom end of the rotating shaft 205. The drive motor 204 is installed on the upper middle part of the support 202, and the stirring blade 206 works in conjunction with the distributing plate 5. In use, the drive motor 204 works first, driving the rotating shaft 205 through the speed reduction device 203, which in turn drives the stirring blade 206 at the bottom end of the rotating shaft 205.
[0032] Working process: When in use, grains are fed into the feed hopper 201, and then the grains fall into the spiral feeder 7 through the discharge hole 6 on the distribution plate 5. During this process, the drive motor 204 works, and the reducer 203 drives the rotating shaft 205 to work, which in turn drives the stirring blades 206 at the bottom of the rotating shaft 205 to work, stirring the grains in the feed hopper 201. Then, the grains slide downwards in the spiral feeder 7 under the action of gravity. During this process, the main body of the cold air blower 13 works, and cold air is sent into the air outlet 9 through the air conveying pipe 12, the annular pipe 11 and the air supply pipe 10. The cold air can cool the grains passing on the bottom wall of the trough of the spiral feeder 7. After being cooled by the spiral feeder 7, the grains fall into the collection bin 4 and are then discharged from the discharge port 15.
