Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment, specifically relating to a powder screening machine. Background Technology

[0002] Powdered food ingredients, such as chili powder or flour, need to be further sieved after coarse grinding. The existing method of sieving fine powder involves placing the powder in a flat mesh screen in a closed space and dispersing it through vibration, allowing smaller particles to pass through the screen and achieving the effect of separating coarse and fine powder. This method relies solely on the powder's own falling speed to pass through the screen without any other external assistance, resulting in low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0022] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.

[0023] Example

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-3This embodiment provides a powder screening machine, including a frame 1 and a rotating drum 2. The rotating drum 2 is cylindrical and is horizontally placed on the frame 1, rotating on the frame 1. Specifically, two driven gears 4 are provided at both ends of the rotating drum 2, and two drive gears 3 are installed on the frame. The two drive gears 3 mesh with the two driven gears 4 respectively. External force drives the drive gears 3 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating drum 2 to rotate. The rotating drum 2 has an inlet 11 and an outlet 12 at its two ends, respectively. The inlet 11 is located above one end of the rotating drum 2, and the outlet 12 is located below the other end of the rotating drum 2. An auger is provided below the inlet 11, and the coarse powder to be screened enters the rotating drum 2 through the auger at the inlet 11. The coarse powder residue screened in the rotating drum 2 is output from the outlet 12. A fine powder tray 5 is installed on the frame 1, located below the rotating drum 2, to receive the fine powder screened from the rotating drum 2. The bottom of the fine powder tray 5 is equipped with a powder dispensing window, which can be opened from the bottom of the fine powder tray 5 to facilitate the removal of the screened fine powder at any time.

[0025] The cylindrical wall of the rotating cage 2 is equivalent to the cage wall. In this embodiment, the cage wall includes inner and outer double-layer cage frames 21 that fit together tightly. A screen 22 is installed between the inner and outer double-layer cage frames 21. The screen holes (not shown in the figure) on the cage wall of the rotating cage 2 are the mesh holes of the screen 22. Here, the screen 22 is preferably made of stainless steel. In other embodiments, the material of the screen 22 can be set by the user, and this utility model does not limit it in this regard.

[0026] A scraper 6 is provided inside the rotating drum 2. One side of the scraper 6 is in contact with or has a gap with the inner wall surface of the rotating drum 2. Specifically, the scraper 6 is elongated, with the longer side of the scraper 6 closer to the inner wall surface of the rotating drum 2. The gap between the scraper 6 and the inner wall surface of the rotating drum 2 is between 0 and 30 mm, preferably between 0 and 5 mm. Here, the scraper 6 is made of an elastic material, preferably silicone. In practical applications, it can also be made of other materials, and this utility model does not limit this.

[0027] Specifically, a shaft support 8 penetrating the inner cavity of the rotating drum 2 is mounted on the frame 1. Sub-supports 7 are mounted on the shaft support 8, and the sub-supports 7 and shaft support 8 are connected by screws. The angle between the sub-supports 7 and shaft support 8 is adjustable. There are one or more sub-supports 7, and a scraper 6 is installed at the end of each sub-support 7. A spring 9 is installed between the sub-support 7 and shaft support 8, and the spring 9 is installed in the forward direction of the rotating drum 2. Figure 3 (As indicated by the arrow) on the back side.

[0028] Furthermore, the powder screening machine provided in this embodiment is also equipped with a screen hole cleaning device (not shown in the figure). The screen hole cleaning device is elongated and is located on the outer wall surface of the rotating drum 2 along its length, that is, parallel to the rotating shaft of the rotating drum 2 and spanning the outer wall surface of the rotating drum 2. Specifically, the screen hole cleaning device is a high-pressure air knife, which is installed on the frame 1. When the rotating drum 2 rotates, the high-pressure air knife does not rotate. The air blowing direction of the high-pressure air knife is towards the rotating shaft of the rotating drum 2. When the rotating drum 2 rotates one revolution, the air blowing range of the high-pressure air knife can cover the entire area of ​​the side wall of the rotating drum 2.

[0029] Working principle:

[0030] When the power is turned on, the motor drives the drive gear 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 4 to rotate, causing the rotating drum 2 to begin rotating on the frame 1. The coarse powder to be screened enters the rotating drum 2 through the feed inlet 11. As the drum 2 rotates, the scraper 6 rubs against the screen surface on the inner wall of the drum 2, causing finer powder to pass through the mesh and fall into the fine powder tray 5. During machine operation, the dividing support 7 is pulled back in the opposite direction of the rotating drum 2's rotation by the spring 9, preventing the dividing support 7 and scraper 6 from being displaced by the friction generated with the inner wall of the drum 2 during prolonged rotation. During the rotation of the drum 2, the screen cleaning device blows air from the outside of the drum 2 into the drum 2 cavity, blowing the powder stuck in the screen holes back into the drum 2 cavity. Coarse powder that fails to pass through the screen holes reaches the other end of the drum 2 and is discharged through the discharge outlet 12, thus completing the powder screening process.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
