Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic noodle machine technology, specifically to an automatic flour feeding device for noodle production. Background Technology

[0002] An automatic noodle maker is a kitchen appliance that automates the processes of kneading, pressing, and cutting noodles. Suitable for homes or small restaurants, it quickly produces fresh noodles, saving time and labor. Its main functions include: automatic kneading: a built-in mixer mixes flour and water in a precise ratio, eliminating the need for manual kneading; multi-level pressing: pressing dough sheets using molds or rollers allows for adjustable thickness (e.g., 1mm-5mm) to meet different texture preferences; multiple noodle shapes: changing molds allows for the production of thin noodles, wide noodles, hollow noodles, pasta, etc., and some models support dough wrappers (wonton wrappers, dumpling wrappers); one-button operation: an intelligent control panel with preset programs to complete the entire process from kneading to noodle production. Key advantages include: time and labor saving: noodles can be produced in 15-30 minutes, suitable for busy modern lifestyles; healthy and additive-free: homemade noodles avoid preservatives in commercially available products, and the ingredients are controllable; multi-functionality: some models are compatible with making steamed bun dough, vegetable noodles (with spinach / carrot juice), etc.; and easy cleaning: detachable parts design, usually allowing for rinsing with water.

[0003] Existing noodle machines have the following drawbacks when automatically dispensing flour: because the flour particles tend to stick together, they are difficult to break up during dispensing, resulting in inaccurate dispensing amounts each time, which affects the quality of the dough. In addition, the flour dispensing position is usually fixed, making it difficult to dispense flour that is not directly above the dispensing position, requiring manual pushing, which is inconvenient to use.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 5This utility model provides a technical solution for an automatic flour feeding device for noodle production, comprising a flour bin 1, a fixed plate 2 and a rotating disk 5 disposed inside the flour bin 1, and a power mechanism disposed at the bottom of the flour bin 1. The flour bin 1 is composed of a bin body 101, a bin cover 102, a bin base 103, and a mounting bracket 104. The fixed plate 2 and the rotating disk 5 are disposed on the bin base 103. The bin body 101 is clamped to the inner wall of the bin base 103. The mounting bracket 104 is clamped to the connection between the bin body 101 and the bin base 103. The bin cover 102 is clamped to the top of the bin body 101. The power mechanism is connected to the rotating disk 5 for transmission. The power mechanism is composed of a drive motor 7, a drive gear 8, a driven gear 9, and a rotating seat 10. A bracket 12 is installed at the bottom of the flour bin 1. A discharge hole 13 is opened at the bottom of the bin base 103, and the discharge hole 13 passes through the bracket 12.

[0025] In addition, when in use, this device is generally installed on the top of the automatic noodle machine. A solenoid valve is generally installed on the discharge hole 13 at the bottom of its housing 103 to control the opening and closing of the discharge hole 13. The bottom of the discharge hole 13 is connected to the dough kneading mechanism on the automatic noodle machine.

[0026] The fixing plate 2 has an arc-shaped notch 3. The fixing plate 2 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the box base 103 by bolts. There is a gap between the bottom of the fixing plate 2 and the inner bottom wall of the box base 103. The edge of the fixing plate 2 abuts against the inner side wall of the box base 103.

[0027] The rotating disk 5 is located in the gap between the bottom of the fixed plate 2 and the inner bottom wall of the box base 103. The rotating disk 5 has a quantitative hole 6 distributed in a circular array. The quantitative hole 6 is located directly below the arc-shaped notch 3. The inner diameter of the quantitative hole 6 is slightly smaller than the width of the arc-shaped notch 3.

[0028] A scraper 4 is provided on the inner bottom wall of the fixed plate 2. The bottom of the scraper 4 abuts against the upper surface of the rotating disk 5. The edge of the scraper 4 is serrated. The scraper 4 is located directly above the metering hole 6. The width of the scraper 4 is slightly larger than the diameter of the metering hole 6.

[0029] The active motor 7 is located at the bottom of the housing 103 and mounted on the bracket 12. The bracket 12 is mounted on an external automatic noodle machine. The output end of the active motor 7 is connected to the active gear 8 for transmission. The active gear 8 meshes with the driven gear 9 for transmission. The driven gear 9 is mounted at the bottom of the housing 103 and is connected to the rotating seat 10 via a transmission shaft. The rotating seat 10 is located inside the housing 103. The top of the rotating seat 10 is conical, and the conical surface of the rotating seat 10 is uneven and rough.

[0030] A through hole is provided at the center of the fixed plate 2, and the rotating seat 10 passes through the through hole at the center of the fixed plate 2. The rotating seat 10 is connected to the rotating disk 5 in a transmission connection. Multiple rotating rods 11 arranged in a circular array are installed on the outer surface of the rotating seat 10. The rotating rods 11 are located above the fixed plate 2.

[0031] Specifically, during feeding, the active motor 7 is started, which drives the active gear 8 to rotate. The active gear 8 drives the rotating seat 10 to rotate through the driven gear 9. When the rotating seat 10 rotates, it drives the rotating rod 11 and the rotating disk 5 to rotate, crushing the flour and preventing it from sticking together. The crushed flour falls into the arc-shaped notch 3 through the fixed plate 2. Under the rotation of the rotating disk 5, the flour in the metering hole 6 is scraped flat by the scraper 4, improving the accuracy of feeding. The flour in the metering hole 6 after being scraped flat is discharged from the flour box 1 through the discharge hole 13 directly below it and enters the interior of the dough mixing mechanism. This achieves precise metering of flour, improving the accuracy of subsequent dough mixing.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The present invention provides a technical solution based on embodiment 1, which further includes a fixing rod 15 at the center of the inner top wall of the box cover 102, a sliding pressure plate 16 slidably connected to the outside of the fixing rod 15, the diameter of the sliding pressure plate 16 being the same as the inner diameter of the box body 101, and a scale display groove 14 being provided on the outer surface of the box body 101.

[0034] Specifically, during the feeding process, because the flour tends to stick together and the density of the flour varies in different metering holes 6, a fixing rod 15 is installed at the bottom of the box cover 102, and a sliding pressure plate 16 is installed on the fixing rod 15. As the amount of flour decreases, the sliding pressure plate 16 can press down on the flour, increasing the density of the flour in the metering holes 6, making the amount of flour in each metering hole 6 consistent, improving feeding consistency, and eliminating the need to level the flour in the flour box 1. This achieves consistency in different positions when the amount of flour decreases, improving ease of use.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
