Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of strip dough processing equipment, and more specifically, to a surface powdering mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] With the rise of the milk tea industry, there is a large demand for tapioca pearls in the market. For tapioca pearl production, extrusion molding equipment is the most popular equipment currently available. This equipment first extrudes the dough into strips, and then rolls them into shape using ball rollers. Before rolling, powder needs to be sprinkled on the surface of the strip dough to ensure that the strip dough does not stick to the ball rollers.

[0003] Existing technology discloses a noodle-preventing device for noodle processing. The noodles are conveyed via a transmission mechanism. When passing through a powder-spreading box, starch is conveyed to a placement plate via a powder inlet pipe. Simultaneously, a motor is started, causing the starch to be sprinkled onto the noodles, preventing them from sticking together. However, because the noodles are conveyed via a transmission mechanism, this device can only apply starch to the side of the noodles that is not in contact with the transmission mechanism, resulting in uneven and poor starch application. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology in that the powdering of strip dough is uneven and the powdering effect is poor, and to provide a surface powdering mechanism that can powder evenly and effectively.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A surface powdering mechanism is provided, including a powder feeding box, a powder hopper, and a dust-generating mechanism. The powder hopper is disposed on the powder feeding box and is connected to the powder hopper. The dust-generating mechanism is disposed inside the powder feeding box. The powder feeding box has an inlet and an outlet.

[0007] This invention relates to a surface powdering mechanism. Powder is placed in a powder feeding box, which then enters the powder hopper. A dust-generating mechanism is activated, creating a dust-generating effect within the powder feeding box, filling it with powder. A strip of dough is then fed into the powder feeding box through the inlet. The dust-generating powder coats the dough strip, which is then removed through the outlet. This process achieves uniform powder coating on the surface of the dough strip. By using the dust-generating mechanism to create a dust-generating effect within the powder feeding box, the dough strip is uniformly powdered as it passes through the box, resulting in a good powder coating effect.

[0008] Furthermore, the powder loading box includes a first powder loading chamber, a second powder loading chamber, and a fixing member. The first powder loading chamber and the second powder loading chamber are fixedly connected by the fixing member. The first powder loading chamber has a first opening, and the second powder loading chamber has a second opening. The first opening and the second opening communicate with each other. The powder hopper is disposed on the first powder loading chamber, and the dust-generating mechanism is disposed inside the first powder loading chamber. The inlet and the outlet are located on either the first powder loading chamber or the second powder loading chamber. By providing the first powder loading chamber and the second powder loading chamber, it is convenient to clean the inside of the powder loading box through the first opening and the second opening.

[0009] Furthermore, the second powder loading chamber is fitted over the first powder loading chamber. After the second powder loading chamber is fitted over the first powder loading chamber, the first powder loading chamber and the second powder loading chamber are connected by fasteners to make the fixation more secure and to prevent dust from leaking out from the first opening and the second opening.

[0010] Furthermore, the first opening has multiple first C-shaped feeding grooves and multiple first C-shaped discharging grooves on opposite sides, and the second opening has multiple second C-shaped feeding grooves and multiple second C-shaped discharging grooves on opposite sides. The first C-shaped feeding grooves and second C-shaped feeding grooves are arranged opposite each other, forming the feeding port, and the first C-shaped discharging grooves and second C-shaped discharging grooves are arranged opposite each other, forming the discharging port. By setting the first C-shaped feeding grooves and second C-shaped feeding grooves to form the feeding port and the first C-shaped discharging grooves and second C-shaped discharging grooves to form the discharging port, the size of the feeding port and the discharging port can be changed by changing the distance between the first flour feeding chamber and the second flour feeding chamber, thereby allowing this mechanism to be applicable to strip-shaped dough of different sizes.

[0011] Furthermore, the fixing component includes a screw, which is threadedly connected to the first powder loading chamber. The second powder loading chamber is provided with a C-shaped groove, and the screw is slidably connected to the C-shaped groove. Loosening the screw changes the distance between the first and second powder loading chambers. At this time, the screw slides in the C-shaped groove. After adjustment, tightening the screw fixes the first and second powder loading chambers.

[0012] Furthermore, a dust collection bin is provided at the end of the second dust-raising bin away from the dust-generating mechanism, and the dust collection bin is located at the bottom of the second dust-raising bin. By setting up the dust collection bin, excess dust in the space is collected and periodically recycled.

[0013] Furthermore, the feed inlet is located on the upper surface of the powder box, and the discharge outlet is located on the lower surface of the powder box. The strip-shaped dough can enter from the feed inlet by gravity and then automatically exit from the discharge outlet, without the need for additional equipment to move the strip-shaped dough.

[0014] Furthermore, the distance between the line connecting the inlet and the outlet is greater than the distance between the upper and lower surfaces of the powder coating box. This staggered arrangement of the inlet and outlet extends the residence time of the strip-shaped dough within the powder coating box, resulting in better powder coating.

[0015] Furthermore, the powder silo is equipped with a dispersing mechanism, which includes a first rotating motor and a dispersing roller. The first rotating motor is mounted on the powder silo, and both ends of the dispersing roller are rotatably connected to the powder silo. The dispersing roller is connected to the output end of the first rotating motor. When material is placed into the powder silo, the first rotating motor is started to drive the dispersing roller to rotate, and the dispersing roller disperses the material into the powder loading box. By controlling the rotation speed and indirect movement of the first rotating motor, timed and quantitative powder addition is achieved.

[0016] Furthermore, the dust-generating mechanism includes a second rotating motor and a brush roller. The second rotating motor is mounted on the powder upper box, and both ends of the brush roller are rotatably connected to the powder upper box. The brush roller is connected to the output end of the second rotating motor. Starting the second rotating motor drives the brush roller to rotate, and the brush roller disperses the powder dust.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. The present invention provides a surface powdering mechanism that uses a dust-raising mechanism to generate dust in the powdering box, so that the strip dough can be powdered on the surface as it passes through the powdering box, resulting in uniform powdering and good powdering effect.

[0019] 2. A surface powdering mechanism of this utility model, wherein the feed inlet is formed by setting a first C-shaped feed trough and a second C-shaped feed trough, and the discharge outlet is formed by setting a first C-shaped discharge trough and a second C-shaped discharge trough. The size of the feed inlet and the discharge outlet can be changed by changing the distance between the first powdering chamber and the second powdering chamber, so that the mechanism can be applied to strip dough of different sizes.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] This embodiment is a first embodiment of a surface powdering mechanism, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes a powder box 100, a powder hopper 200 and a dust-raising mechanism 300. The powder hopper 200 is located on the powder box 100 and is connected to the powder hopper 200. The dust-raising mechanism 300 is located inside the powder box 100. The powder box 100 has an inlet 111 and an outlet 112.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the feed inlet 111 is located on the upper surface of the powder box 100, and the discharge outlet 112 is located on the lower surface of the powder box 100. The strip-shaped dough can enter through the feed inlet 111 by gravity and then automatically exit through the discharge outlet 112 without the need for additional equipment to move the strip-shaped dough.

[0031] The distance between the inlet 111 and the outlet 112 is greater than the distance between the upper and lower surfaces of the powder coating box 100. By staggering the inlet 111 and the outlet 112, the dwell time of the strip dough in the powder coating box 100 is extended, thereby improving the powder coating effect.

[0032] The connecting hole between the powder hopper 200 and the upper powder box 100 is very small. The specific size of the connecting hole is designed according to the size of the powder that can be dispersed by the dust-dispersing mechanism 300. To ensure dust dispersion, a screen can also be installed between the powder hopper 200 and the upper powder box 100. Therefore, a dispersing mechanism 210 is installed inside the powder hopper 200. Figure 5 As shown, the dispersing mechanism 210 includes a first rotating motor 211 and a dispersing roller 212. The first rotating motor 211 is mounted on the powder silo 200. Both ends of the dispersing roller 212 are rotatably connected to the powder silo 200, and the dispersing roller 212 is connected to the output end of the first rotating motor 211. When material is placed into the powder silo 200, the first rotating motor 211 is started to drive the dispersing roller 212 to rotate. The dispersing roller 212 disperses the material and allows it to enter the powder box 100 through the connecting hole. By controlling the rotation speed and indirect movement of the first rotating motor 211, timed and quantitative powder addition is achieved.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the dust-suppressing mechanism 300 includes a second rotating motor 310 and a brush roller 320. The second rotating motor 310 is mounted on the upper powder box 100, and both ends of the brush roller 320 are rotatably connected to the upper powder box 100. The brush roller 320 is connected to the output end of the second rotating motor 310. Starting the second rotating motor 310 drives the brush roller 320 to rotate, and the brush roller 320 disperses the powder dust. During this process, the dust-suppressing effect is controlled by controlling the rotation speed of the second rotating motor 310. To ensure the dust-suppressing effect, in this embodiment, the brush roller 320 is located directly below the connecting hole between the powder hopper 200 and the upper powder box 100, meaning the dust falls directly onto the brush roller 320.

[0034] The working principle of a surface powdering mechanism in this embodiment is as follows:

[0035] The powder is placed in the powder loading box 100 and then enters the powder hopper 200. The dust-generating mechanism 300 is activated to create a dust-generating effect within the powder loading box 100, filling it with powder. A strip of dough is then fed into the powder loading box 100 through the inlet 111. The dust-generating powder coats the strip of dough, which is then removed from the outlet 112, achieving uniform powder coating on its surface. By using the dust-generating mechanism 300 to create a dust-generating effect within the powder loading box 100, the strip of dough is coated with powder as it passes through the box. This dust-generating powder coating method replaces top-down sprinkling, resulting in more uniform and effective powder coating. Furthermore, the dust-generating powder coating within the powder loading box 100, with its enclosed space, effectively controls dust, reduces on-site hygiene issues, and minimizes material loss.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] This embodiment is a second embodiment of the surface powdering mechanism. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that, as shown in the example... Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the powder loading box 100 includes a first powder loading chamber 110, a second powder loading chamber 120, and a fixing member 130. The first powder loading chamber 110 and the second powder loading chamber 120 are fixedly connected by the fixing member 130. The first powder loading chamber 110 has a first opening 113, and the second powder loading chamber 120 has a second opening 121. The first opening 113 and the second opening 121 communicate with each other. The powder hopper 200 is disposed on the first powder loading chamber 110, and the dust-generating mechanism 300 is disposed inside the first powder loading chamber 110. The inlet 111 and the outlet 112 are located on either the first powder loading chamber 110 or the second powder loading chamber 120. By setting the first powder loading chamber 110 and the second powder loading chamber 120, it is convenient to clean the inside of the powder loading box 100 through the first opening 113 and the second opening 121.

[0038] The second powder loading chamber 120 is fitted outside the first powder loading chamber 110. After the second powder loading chamber 120 is fitted outside the first powder loading chamber 110, the first powder loading chamber 110 and the second powder loading chamber 120 are connected by the fastener 130 to make the fixation more secure and to prevent dust from leaking out from the first opening 113 and the second opening 121. Specifically, the fixing component 130 can be configured as a slider and a fixing block connected to the slider. The slider is connected to the first powder loading chamber 110. The second powder loading chamber 120 is provided with a sliding groove for the screw to slide. The inner diameter of the sliding groove is larger than that of the slider and smaller than that of the fixing block. The sliding groove includes a horizontal groove, an inclined groove and a vertical groove connected in sequence. The inclined groove gradually slopes upward from the end near the horizontal groove to the end away from the horizontal groove. The horizontal groove is located between the inclined groove and the first powder loading chamber 110, that is, the horizontal groove is set close to the first powder loading chamber 110. The bottom of the first powder loading chamber 110 gradually slopes downward from the end near the second powder loading chamber 120 to the end away from the second powder loading chamber 120. During installation, the slider first slides in the horizontal groove, and the second powder loading chamber 120 is fitted over the first powder loading chamber 110. Then the slider enters the vertical groove from the inclined groove. The slider is restricted by the vertical groove and cannot move horizontally, thus fixing the first powder loading chamber 110 and the second powder loading chamber 120.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, a dust collection bin 125 is provided at the end of the second dust collection bin 120 away from the dust generation mechanism 300, and the dust collection bin 125 is located at the bottom of the second dust collection bin 120. By setting up the dust collection bin 125, excess dust in the space is collected and recycled periodically.

[0040] Example 3

[0041] This embodiment is the third embodiment of the surface powdering mechanism. This embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1, except that, as Figure 3 As shown, multiple first C-shaped feed troughs 114 and multiple first C-shaped discharge troughs 115 are respectively provided on the two opposite sides of the first opening 113, specifically arranged on the upper and lower sides, as follows: Figure 4 As shown, multiple second C-shaped feed troughs 122 and multiple second C-shaped discharge troughs 123 are respectively provided on the two opposite sides of the second opening 121, specifically arranged on the upper and lower sides, as follows: Figures 2 to 4As shown, the first C-shaped feeding trough 114 and the second C-shaped feeding trough 122 are arranged opposite to each other, forming a feeding port 111. The first C-shaped discharging trough 115 and the second C-shaped discharging trough 123 are arranged opposite to each other, forming a discharging port 112. By setting the first C-shaped feeding trough 114 and the second C-shaped feeding trough 122 to form the feeding port 111 and the first C-shaped discharging trough 115 and the second C-shaped discharging trough 123 to form the discharging port 112, the size of the feeding port 111 and the discharging port 112 can be changed by altering the distance between the first flour loading chamber 110 and the second flour loading chamber 120, thus allowing this mechanism to be adapted to strip-shaped dough of different sizes.

[0042] The fixing component 130 includes a screw, which is threadedly connected to the first powder loading chamber 110. The second powder loading chamber 120 is provided with a C-shaped groove 124, and the screw is slidably connected to the C-shaped groove 124. Loosening the screw changes the distance between the first powder loading chamber 110 and the second powder loading chamber 120. At this time, the screw slides in the C-shaped groove 124. After adjustment, tightening the screw fixes the first powder loading chamber 110 and the second powder loading chamber 120.
