Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wakame seaweed production technology, specifically relating to a salt mixing device for producing wakame seaweed. Background Technology

[0002] Wakame seaweed, also known as sea vegetable, is a type of edible algae. Its overall shape is lanceolate with a prominent central rib and thinner sides, often forming numerous pinnate lobes. The lobes have notched edges, sometimes remaining undivided, and are densely covered with mucus glands. Wakame is a type of seaweed with pinnately lobed leaves, thinner than kelp, resembling a banana leaf fan or a skirt, hence its name. Wakame has a good taste and is popular whether used in salads or soups. However, fresh wakame is inconvenient to transport and has a limited shelf life. Therefore, clever farmers devised a method to dry wakame before selling it, making it easier to transport and allowing for longer storage.

[0003] In existing technologies, wakame seaweed, after being harvested from the sea, has a large amount of seawater attached to it. After drying, it is impossible to effectively and evenly salt the outer surface of the wakame seaweed for easy storage. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a salt-mixing device for producing wakame seaweed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

A lead screw is horizontally rotatably installed inside the housing, with a power motor installed at one end of the lead screw. A movable platform is movably mounted on the outer surface of the lead screw, and a spray nozzle is fixedly installed at the lower end of the movable platform. A semi-cylinder is horizontally fixedly installed inside the housing and below the spray nozzle.

[0013] The beneficial effects are:

[0014] This utility model discloses a salt-mixing device for producing wakame seaweed. Through a set salt-mixing actuator, a power motor drives a lead screw to rotate, adjusting the moving platform and spray nozzle to move laterally left and right. Simultaneously, the wakame seaweed enters a semi-cylinder inside the container via a transport and feeding mechanism. The spray nozzle mixes the wakame seaweed in the semi-cylinder with salt during the movement. A servo motor drives a bearing rod, mounting plate, and mixing plate to rotate at a certain angle, uniformly mixing the wakame seaweed with salt. After uniform salt mixing, the salt falls into a collection box through a discharge pipe, ensuring uniform salt mixing, improving mixing efficiency, and enhancing the taste and texture of the salted wakame seaweed. It is convenient to use and highly practical. Attached Figure Description
