Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rice noodle processing, and in particular relates to a rice soaking and washing device for rice noodle processing. Background Technology

[0002] Rice noodle processing requires washing and cleaning the rice. To improve the texture of the rice noodles, the rice also needs to be soaked for a certain period of time to make the rice stickier and have a better texture. The usual process is to soak the rice and then wash and clean it.

[0003] In existing technologies, soaking and washing equipment are independent of each other. Generally, soaked rice is sent to be washed, and equipment is needed to transfer the process. This results in poor connectivity. Moreover, since soaking requires a static treatment, if the process is not designed properly, the washing equipment may need to be stopped to wait for the soaking process to complete, leading to low overall soaking and washing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a rice soaking and washing device for rice noodle processing. The device comprises:

[0005] A pre-washing tank, comprising a tank body and a conveying pump for conveying rice;

[0006] The main cleaning chamber is equipped with a first partition and a second partition, which divide the main cleaning chamber into a return chamber, a cleaning chamber and a collection chamber. The main cleaning chamber is equipped with a conveying mechanism that passes through the return chamber, the cleaning chamber and the collection chamber in sequence.

[0007] The conveying pump transports the liquid mixture containing rice in the tank to the conveying mechanism located above the reflux chamber. The water in the rice mixture is filtered by the conveying mechanism and flows back to the reflux chamber and then back to the pre-washing tank. The rice then flows sequentially to the washing chamber and the collection chamber via the conveying mechanism.

[0008] Preferably, a high-pressure spray pipe is provided above the cleaning chamber, and the conveying mechanism enters below the surface of the cleaning liquid stored in the cleaning chamber when passing through the cleaning chamber.

[0009] Preferably, the conveying mechanism includes a first conveying section, a descending conveying section, a second conveying section, a climbing conveying section, and a third conveying section. The descending conveying section, the second conveying section, and the climbing conveying section are all located between the first partition and the second partition. The rice is drawn into the second conveying section, which is located below the liquid surface in the washing chamber, through the descending conveying section, and then leaves the liquid in the washing chamber through the climbing conveying section.

[0010] Preferably, the pre-cleaning tank and the return chamber are connected by a drain pipe, and the liquid level in the return chamber is higher than the liquid level in the pre-cleaning tank.

[0011] Preferably, the number of pre-washing cylinders is not less than two sets, and different pre-washing cylinders alternately convey a liquid mixture containing rice to the first conveying section on the conveying mechanism via a conveying pump.

[0012] Preferably, the liquids in the reflux chamber and the cleaning chamber are isolated from each other.

[0013] Preferably, the pre-cleaning tank is equipped with a stirring paddle.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this application have the following main advantages:

[0015] 1. The rice soaking and washing equipment for rice noodle processing provided by this utility model effectively connects the pre-washing tank and the subsequent washing equipment in series through the reflux chamber and the added first conveyor section. The pre-washing tank directly uses the conveyor mechanism for filtration during the discharge process, reducing the number of equipment involved in the process, improving the connection effect between the washing process and the soaking process equipment, and improving the overall soaking and washing efficiency.

[0016] 2. The rice soaking and washing equipment for rice noodle processing provided by this utility model is equipped with multiple sets of pre-washing tanks. While one set of pre-washing tanks is conveying rice, the other sets are silently soaking. Different pre-washing tanks alternately convey liquid mixture containing rice to the first conveying section of the conveying mechanism through a conveying pump, avoiding the need for subsequent washing equipment to wait for soaking time. The overall soaking and washing efficiency is improved under the alternating conveying method. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs; the terminology used herein in the specification of the application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and foregoing drawings of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0025] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0026] This utility model embodiment provides a rice soaking and washing device for rice noodle processing, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the rice soaking and washing equipment for rice noodle processing includes:

[0027] The pre-washing tank 100 includes a tank body 110 and a conveying pump 120 for conveying rice. The conveying pump 120 is a conventional turbid water pump or other conveying pump capable of conveying solid-liquid mixtures. The conveying pump 120 conveys the rice that has completed the soaking process to the rear end for washing.

[0028] The main cleaning chamber 200 adopts a long trough-shaped structure, and its appearance is similar to that of existing bubble cleaning machines. The difference is that the main cleaning chamber 200 in this application is provided with a first partition 210 and a second partition 220. The first partition 210 and the second partition 220 divide the main cleaning chamber 200 into a return chamber 201, a cleaning chamber 202 and a collection chamber 203. The main cleaning chamber 200 is provided with a conveying mechanism 300, which passes through the return chamber 201, the cleaning chamber 202 and the collection chamber 203 in sequence.

[0029] The conveying pump 120 conveys the liquid mixture containing rice in the tank 110 to the conveying mechanism 300 located above the return chamber 201. The water in the rice mixture is filtered by the conveying mechanism 300 and flows back to the pre-washing tank 100. The rice then flows sequentially to the washing chamber 202 and the collection chamber 203 via the conveying mechanism 300.

[0030] The main cleaning chamber 200 differs from traditional equipment structure bubble cleaning technology in that a set of return chambers 201 is added at the front end of the cleaning chamber 202 used for cleaning operations. Here, the return chamber 201, under the filtering action of the conveying mechanism 300, mainly recovers the water of the rice conveyed by the conveying pump 120 and returns it to the pre-cleaning tank 100.

[0031] The conveying mechanism 300 here also has slight differences from the existing technology. The conveying mechanism 300 includes a first conveying section 310, a descending conveying section 320, a second conveying section 330, a climbing conveying section 340, and a third conveying section 350. The descending conveying section 320, the second conveying section 330, and the climbing conveying section 340 are all located between the first partition 210 and the second partition 220. The first conveying section 310 is located above the return chamber 201, and the third conveying section 350 is located in the collection chamber 203. First, the conveying pump 120 pours the liquid mixture containing rice into... The first conveyor section 310 uses the same conveyor belt technology as existing technologies. The conveyor belt filters the rice and traps it on the surface, allowing the liquid to pass through the mesh into the return chamber 201. The rice is then pulled by the descending conveyor section 320 into the second conveyor section 330, which is located below the liquid surface in the washing chamber 202. It then leaves the liquid in the washing chamber 202 via the climbing conveyor section 340, where it is dehydrated again during the climbing process. When it reaches the third conveyor section 350, it is collected and recycled. The collection chamber 203 is equipped with a storage box or can be directly connected to the subsequent process via a conveyor belt.

[0032] In this application, the conveying mechanism 300 adds a conveying section on the basis of the prior art, and the structural principles and equipment used are all existing technologies. For example, the conveying guide rail, the conveyor belt pressing strip and the scraping structure at the end of the third conveying section 350 are all existing technologies, which will not be described in detail in this application.

[0033] The pre-washing tank 100 and the return chamber 201 are connected by a drain pipe 140. The liquid level in the return chamber 201 is higher than the liquid level in the pre-washing tank 100. The drain pipe 140 is equipped with a filter screen to prevent rice from directly entering the return chamber 201.

[0034] This application effectively connects the pre-cleaning tank 100 with the subsequent cleaning equipment by using the reflux chamber 201 in conjunction with the added first conveyor section 310. The pre-cleaning tank 100 directly uses the conveyor mechanism 300 for filtration during the discharge process, which improves the connection effect between the cleaning process and the soaking process equipment and reduces intermediate equipment.

[0035] Furthermore, this application can set up multiple sets of pre-cleaning tanks 100. While one set of pre-cleaning tanks 100 is conveying rice, the other sets are silently soaking, waiting for the rice in the pre-cleaning tanks 100 to be conveyed before the next set of pre-cleaning tanks 100 conveys rice. The pre-cleaning tanks 100 that have finished conveying can continue to soak. This application provides two examples. The actual process will be matched according to the processing speed of the subsequent cleaning equipment and the required soaking time. The main requirement is that the soaking time should be equal to the product of the number of equipment and the cleaning time. By arranging the soaking time intervals, it is ensured that the equipment completes the soaking in sequence before the cleaning operation is carried out.

[0036] By alternately conveying a liquid mixture containing rice to the first conveying section 310 of the conveying mechanism 300 through different pre-cleaning tanks 100 via the conveying pump 120, the need for subsequent cleaning equipment to wait for soaking time is avoided, and the overall soaking and cleaning efficiency is improved by using the alternating conveying method.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the pre-cleaning tank 100 is equipped with a stirring paddle 130; a stirring motor is installed at the bottom of the tank body 110, and the stirring paddle 130 is driven by the stirring motor at the bottom of the tank body 110. Here, the tank body 110 serves as a rice soaking area, and the stirring paddle 130 does not operate during the soaking process.

[0038] In this embodiment, the stirring paddle 130 can stir and clean the rice, reducing the residue adhering to the surface of the rice; a high-pressure nozzle 230 is provided above the subsequent cleaning chamber 202 to provide a high-pressure jet, using water pressure to generate impact force to deeply clean the rice. The high-pressure nozzle 230 here refers to the prior art. It should be noted that the first partition 210 completely separates the return chamber 201 and the cleaning chamber 202, and the internal liquids are isolated from each other to prevent the soaking liquid during the soaking process from entering the cleaning chamber 202 and affecting the rice cleaning effect.

[0039] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the foregoing embodiments are all described as a series of actions. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the described order of actions, as some steps may be performed in other orders or simultaneously according to the present invention. Furthermore, those skilled in the art should also understand that the embodiments described in the specification are preferred embodiments, and the actions and modules involved are not necessarily essential to the present invention.

[0040] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on these embodiments, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can still combine, add, delete, or otherwise adjust the features of the various embodiments of this utility model according to the circumstances without conflict or creative effort, thereby obtaining different technical solutions that do not fundamentally depart from the concept of this utility model. These technical solutions are also within the scope of protection of this utility model.
