Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing, and in particular to a constant temperature segmented soaking device for processing broad beans. Background Technology
[0002] As a core link in the traditional fermented food industry, the optimization of the soaking process in fermented soybean processing is crucial to product quality and production efficiency. Traditional soaking methods rely on manual operation, which suffers from problems such as unstable temperature control, uneven soaking, and high labor intensity. This results in significant color differences in fermented soybeans, severe nutrient loss, and difficulty in meeting the needs of large-scale production. With the food processing industry's transformation towards intelligent and standardized processes, constant temperature segmented soaking equipment has emerged as a key innovation to solve the pain points of traditional processes.
[0003] Existing constant-temperature segmented soaking equipment typically soaks broad beans in a stainless steel tank with a constant water temperature. After the beans have absorbed all the water, they are removed and placed in a tank with a second temperature for a second soaking. After multiple cycles, the soaked broad beans are conveyed to subsequent processing via a draining mesh belt. However, in actual use, because the broad beans are relatively dispersed in the water, it is extremely inconvenient for workers to collect them, which affects the processing efficiency of the broad beans. Therefore, a constant-temperature segmented soaking equipment for broad bean processing is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0034] Reference Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a constant temperature segmented soaking device for processing broad beans, comprising a base 1, a support 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a water tank 3 fixedly connected to the top of the support 2, a heater 9 installed in the middle of the water tank 3, a drive assembly installed inside the base 1, a sleeve 14 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a threaded tube 16 slidably connected to the middle of the sleeve 14, the drive assembly including a servo motor 13 fixedly connected inside the base 1, a lead screw 15 fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 13, the threaded tube 16 threadedly connected to the outer periphery of the lead screw 15, a limit assembly installed between the sleeve 14 and the threaded tube 16, the limit assembly including a limit block 18 fixedly connected to the outer side of the threaded tube 16, a limit groove 17 opened on the inner wall of the sleeve 14, and the limit block 18 slidably connected to the middle of the limit groove 17. First, the water in the water tank 3 can be heated by the heater 9 and kept at a constant temperature. The servo motor 13 drives the limiting groove 17 to rotate, so that the threaded tube 16 can drive the limiting block 18 to slide in the middle of the limiting groove 17, so that the threaded tube 16 can move up and down in the middle of the sleeve 14.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5A connecting frame 7 is rotatably connected to the outer periphery of the threaded tube 16. A support frame 6 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting frame 7. A locking mechanism is installed inside the support frame 6. A frame 10 is installed in the middle of the support frame 6. A filter screen 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the frame 10. The filter screen 4 is located in the middle of the water tank 3. An ultrasonic transducer 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank 3. First, the broad beans are soaked in the middle of the filter screen 4. The ultrasonic transducer 12 ensures uniform water temperature during soaking and separates any adhering substances from the surface of the broad beans through vibration. After soaking, the servo motor 13 moves the threaded tube 16, which in turn moves the connecting frame 7. Simultaneously, the connecting frame 7 moves the support frame 6, allowing the support frame 6 to lift the filter screen 4 from the middle of the water tank 3 via the frame 10. Once lifted, the connecting frame 7 rotates, moving the frame 10 and the filter screen 4 to the top of the water tank 3 at a different temperature via the support frame 6. Then, the servo motor 13 is driven to place the filter screen 4 back into the water tank 3, allowing the broad beans in the filter screen 4 to be quickly soaked at different temperatures, thus improving work efficiency.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 Figure 6 The locking mechanism includes a stop block 21, which is slidably connected inside the support frame 6. A slide rod 27 is fixedly connected to the middle of the stop block 21, and a movable plate 25 is fixedly connected to the other end of the slide rod 27. An insertion rod 26 is fixedly connected to the middle of the movable plate 25, and the insertion rod 26 is slidably connected to the middle of the frame 10. A compression spring 23 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the slide rod 27. A through hole 11 is opened in the middle of the frame 10, and the insertion rod 26 is slidably connected to the middle of the through hole 11. The compression spring 23 is located inside the support frame 6, and a pad 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. After the broad beans have been soaked at different temperatures, the filter screen 4 is rotated and moved to the top of the pad 5 and placed. Then, the movable plate 25 is pulled to drive the insertion rod 26 to slide from the middle of the through hole 11, so that the frame 10 and the filter screen 4 can be quickly removed from the middle of the support frame 6. This allows the soaked broad beans to be removed for subsequent processing and facilitates cleaning of the filter holes of the filter screen 4, preventing impurities from clogging the filter holes and affecting the water flow.
[0037] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4A lower gear plate 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 7, and a round rod 24 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded tube 16. The other end of the round rod 24 passes through the lower gear plate 19 and is fixedly connected to a stop block 8. An upper gear plate 20 is slidably connected to the outer circumference of the round rod 24, and a compression spring 22 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the round rod 24. The upper gear plate 20 meshes with the lower gear plate 19. Under the action of the round rod 24 and the stop block 8, the compression spring 22 can push the upper gear plate 20 to mesh with the lower gear plate 19, so as to ensure that the filter screen 4 will only rotate when pushed by the operator, thereby avoiding the filter screen 4 from colliding with the heater 9 in the middle of the water tank 3 due to shaking.
[0038] Working principle: First, the fermented soybeans are soaked in the first-stage heated water tank 3. After soaking, the servo motor 13 drives the lead screw 15, so that the threaded tube 16 can move up and down around the outer periphery of the limiting groove 17 under the action of the limiting block 18 and the limiting groove 17. This allows the threaded tube 16 to lift the filter screen 4 through the connecting frame 7 and the support frame 6. Then, the connecting frame 7 is rotated so that the filter screen 4 is aligned with the other stage water tank 3 and lowered. This allows for rapid soaking at different temperatures, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0039] After the broad beans have been soaked at different temperatures, rotate the filter screen 4 to the top of the pad block 5 and lower it. Then pull the movable plate 25 to pull the insertion rod 26 out from the middle of the frame 10 so that the frame 10 and the filter screen 4 can be quickly removed from the middle of the support frame 6. This allows the broad beans to be quickly removed for further processing, and at the same time, the filter screen 4 can be cleaned to prevent the filter holes from becoming clogged.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
