Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gelatin production equipment technology, and in particular to a gelatin strip crushing and granulation device. Background Technology

[0002] In the gelatin production process, crushing and granulating gelatin strips is an important step, but traditional gelatin strip crushing and granulation equipment has many problems.

[0003] Existing pulverizing equipment directly feeds gelatin strips into the granulation stage after crushing, lacking effective control over the feed rate. Because gelatin has a certain viscosity, excessive feed after crushing easily causes blockages in the granulation equipment, affecting granulation efficiency and increasing equipment wear and production costs due to frequent cleaning. For example, in some common continuous pulverizing and granulating integrated equipment, the material is fed into the granulator all at once after crushing. When the granules formed from the crushed gelatin strips are relatively fine and viscous, blockages frequently occur at the granulator's feed inlet, mixing area, and granulation mold. In severe cases, the machine needs to be stopped for cleaning every 2-3 hours, significantly impacting production continuity. Secondly, regarding the granulation head, traditional equipment typically uses fixed-specification granulation heads. When producing gelatin granules of different sizes, it often requires replacing the entire granulation equipment or making complex modifications to the granulation head, which is cumbersome and costly. For instance, in some small gelatin production enterprises, switching from producing 3mm gelatin granules to producing 5mm granules presents a significant challenge. Because the granulation head cannot be easily replaced, companies need to spend tens of thousands of yuan to purchase new equipment for gelatin granules, which is extremely detrimental to the company's cost control and product diversification.

[0004] To address these shortcomings, we have proposed a gelatin strip crushing and granulation device. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gelatin strip crushing and granulation device to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a gelatin strip crushing and granulation device, comprising a box body, the top surface of which is connected to a feeding hopper, and the upper end of the feeding hopper is connected to a crushing hopper, and the top surface of the crushing hopper is hinged to a feeding hopper door, a crushing motor is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the crushing hopper, and a crushing rod is installed at the output end of the crushing motor, and a crushing blade is detachably installed on the crushing rod by bolts, a slot is provided on the inner wall of the feeding hopper, and a sealing plate is slidably connected inside the slot, and a pull rod is installed at one end of the sealing plate, a first drive motor is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the box body, and a spiral conveying blade is installed at the output end of the first drive motor extending into the interior of the box body, and a granulation head is threadedly connected to the other end of the box body, and a granulation hole is provided on the surface of the granulation head, a second drive motor is fixedly installed on the top surface of the box body, and a rotating column is installed at the output end of the second drive motor, and a cutting blade is installed on the rotating column, and the cutting blade is used in conjunction with the granulation head.

[0007] Preferably, a control switch is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the housing, and the control switch is electrically connected to the crushing motor, the first drive motor and the second drive motor through wires.

[0008] Preferably, the length of the slot is not less than 1.2 times the length of the sealing plate, and the width of the sealing plate is adapted to the width of the inner wall of the discharge bin, and the gap between the two is not greater than 2mm.

[0009] Preferably, a sealing strip is provided between the feed box door and the crushing chamber.

[0010] Preferably, the shredding blades are provided in multiples, and the multiple shredding blades are distributed in a ring array on the surface of the shredding rod.

[0011] Preferably, the granulation holes are provided in a plurality of manner, and the plurality of granulation holes are distributed in a ring array on the surface of the granulation head.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] In this invention, a sealing plate structure is installed between the crushing equipment and the granulation equipment. The operator can flexibly adjust the feeding amount according to the actual situation after the gelatin strip is crushed. For example, when the gelatin strip is crushed into fine particles with high viscosity, the opening of the sealing plate can be reduced to allow the material to enter the granulation equipment box slowly and evenly. This effectively avoids clogging caused by excessive feeding amount in the granulation equipment. The clogging frequency during the granulation process is greatly reduced, which greatly improves the granulation efficiency, reduces equipment downtime for cleaning, and lowers equipment wear and production costs.

[0014] This invention features a replaceable pelletizing head design, allowing companies to produce gelatin granules of different sizes without replacing the entire equipment or making complex modifications. For example, when producing 3mm and 5mm gelatin granules, switching production on traditional equipment requires hours or even days of equipment replacement or modification time. The pelletizing head can be quickly replaced, enabling rapid switching between producing products of different particle sizes. This greatly improves production flexibility, allowing companies to adjust their product structure in a timely manner according to market demand and enhance their market competitiveness.

[0034] Specifically, it can produce several gelatin granules at once, improving granulation efficiency.

[0035] Working principle: After the equipment is started, the gelatin strip enters the crushing chamber 3 through the feed box door 4. The crushing motor 5 drives the crushing rod 6 and the crushing blades 7 installed on it to crush the gelatin strip. The crushed material falls into the feeding channel. At this time, the operator can adjust the size of the feeding channel opening by pulling the pull rod 10 according to the material characteristics, so as to make the sealing plate 9 slide along the slot 8 and precisely control the amount of material entering the granulation equipment. This prevents the granulation equipment from being blocked due to excessive material feeding. When it is necessary to produce gelatin granules of different particle sizes, the original granulating head 13 can be removed and replaced with a granulating head 13 with a corresponding particle size granulation hole 14 by unscrewing the threaded connection according to the required particle size. The material is conveyed to the granulating head 13 by the spiral conveyor blade 12. With the cooperation of the second drive motor 15 driving the rotating column 16 and the cutting blade 17, the production of gelatin granules of different particle sizes is completed.
