Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of condiment processing technology, and in particular to a plant protein condiment feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Seasonings are auxiliary food products that can enhance the quality of dishes, improve consumers' appetite and food health. During the processing, they need to be added and mixed according to different tastes. For example, common plant protein powders can be divided into various flavors such as low sugar and milk flavor, depending on consumer preferences.

[0003] Existing seasoning mixing devices have certain drawbacks. For example, in a seasoning processing and mixing device with patent number CN221753165U, a weighing barrel is moved below a corresponding storage tank, and then the seasoning is fed into the weighing barrel for weighing. After the weight reaches the target, the weighing barrel is moved to transport the weighed seasoning into a mixing drum for stirring and mixing. Because the weighing barrel has a fixed size, if the required mixture consists of many types of seasonings and the quantity is large, it is easy to repeatedly transport a single type of seasoning, which is tedious and repetitive, resulting in low feeding efficiency. Therefore, a seasoning feeding device is needed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0016] 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.

[0017] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] Reference Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a plant protein seasoning feeding device, including a plurality of feeding pipes 1 for conveying different types of seasonings, and a control valve 2 installed on each feeding pipe 1. It also includes: Mixing tank 3 has a rotating stirring assembly inside its cavity; The conveying pipe 4 has a discharge pipe 20 connected to the bottom of one end, and the bottom end of the discharge pipe 20 is connected to the mixing tank 3. A conveying component is installed inside the conveying pipe 4. There are several feed pipes 5, which are distributed sequentially along the length of the conveying pipe 4. The feed pipes 5 are detachably connected to the top of the conveying pipe 4, and the top of the feed pipe 5 is connected to and fixedly connected to a feed hopper 6. The number of feed hoppers 6 is the same as that of the feed pipe 1, and they are connected to each other. The weighing assembly includes a baffle 7 slidably connected inside the feed pipe 5. A pressure sensor 8 is provided on the top surface of the baffle 7. A drive unit is provided outside the feed pipe 5. The drive end of the drive unit is connected to the baffle 7 so that the baffle 7 can selectively block or not block the feed pipe 5.

[0019] This invention uses a stirring assembly to stir seasonings in a mixing tank 3, and a conveying pipe 4 connected to the mixing tank 3 is provided. The conveying assembly conveys the seasonings into the conveying pipe 4. In addition, several feeding pipes 5 are connected to the conveying pipe 4. Feeding hoppers 6 are fixedly connected to the top of the feeding pipes 5, and the feeding hoppers 6 are connected to the feeding pipes 1 one by one to meet the feeding and conveying of various seasonings. The pressure sensor 8 set on the top surface of the baffle 7 obtains the weight of the seasonings, thereby accurately controlling the feeding ratio. Finally, the driving component slides the baffle 7 to connect the feeding pipes 5 and the conveying pipe 4, and the seasonings are fed into the conveying pipe 4. When the conveying assembly conveys, different seasonings can be initially mixed, which not only improves the feeding efficiency, but also improves the mixing efficiency.

[0020] Specifically, various seasoning storage tanks (not shown in the figure) are placed at a high position in the work area. Each tank is connected to a corresponding feeding pipe 1, and different seasonings are released in conjunction with a control valve 2. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail.

[0021] Furthermore, the driving components include: Servo cylinder 9, a bracket 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the feed pipe 5, and the bracket 10 extends in a direction away from the feed pipe 5. The servo cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the end of the bracket 10 away from the feed pipe 5. The piston rod of the servo cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the baffle 7. The feed pipe 5 has a groove, the baffle 7 is slidably connected in the groove, and the side of the baffle 7 closest to the servo cylinder 9 extends out of the groove.

[0022] The servo cylinder 9 is fixed to one side of the feed pipe 5 using the bracket 10. The piston rod of the servo cylinder 9 is fixed to the baffle 7 to realize the movement and adjustment of the baffle 7. In addition, the groove opened in the feed pipe 5 allows the baffle 7 to slide in the groove, and one side of the baffle 7 can extend out of the groove, which makes it convenient for the servo cylinder 9 to move the baffle 7 to block or connect the inner diameter of the feed pipe 5.

[0023] It is understandable that the diameter of the groove is larger than the inner diameter of the feed pipe 5, and the size of the baffle 7 is the same as the diameter of the groove, so that the baffle 7 can effectively cover the inner diameter of the feed pipe 5 and block the feed pipe 5.

[0024] Furthermore, the length of the baffle 7 is less than the distance between the servo cylinder 9 and the feed pipe 5.

[0025] The distance between the servo cylinder 9 and the feed pipe 5 is extended by the bracket 10, so that the baffle 7 can be fully extended out of the feed pipe 5 through the groove, and the inner diameter of the feed pipe 5 is opened to facilitate the passage of seasoning into the conveying pipe 4.

[0026] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the top surface of the baffle 7, and the pressure sensor 8 is fixed in the groove, with the detection end of the pressure sensor 8 flush with the top surface of the baffle 7.

[0027] Furthermore, a sealing strip 11 is fixed to the inner wall of the feed pipe 5, and the bottom end of the sealing strip 11 slides in contact with the top surface of the baffle 7.

[0028] By controlling the detection end of the pressure sensor 8 to be flush with the top surface of the baffle 7, and fixing the sealing strip 11 to the feed pipe 5, the sealing strip 11 slides into contact with the baffle 7, so that when the baffle 7 slides out of the feed pipe 5, the sealing strip 11 can sweep down the seasoning on the top surface of the baffle 7 and directly pass it into the conveying pipe 4.

[0029] Furthermore, the conveying assembly includes a first servo motor 12, which is fixedly connected to one end of the conveying pipe 4. The output shaft of the first servo motor 12 is coaxially fixedly connected to a rotating rod 13, which is rotatably connected inside the conveying pipe 4, and an auger 14 is wound around the rotating rod 13 and fixedly connected to it.

[0030] The first servo motor 12 drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate the auger 14. The auger 14 generates a spiral conveying force in the conveying pipe 4, which conveys the seasonings introduced into several feed pipes 5 toward the mixing tank 3, and can initially mix different seasonings during the conveying process.

[0031] Furthermore, the stirring assembly includes a second servo motor 15, which is fixed to the top surface of the mixing tank 3. The output shaft of the second servo motor 15 is coaxially fixed to a drive rod 16, which extends into the mixing tank 3. Several stirring rods 17 are fixed to the portion of the drive rod 16 located inside the mixing tank 3.

[0032] The second servo motor 15 drives the drive rod 16 to rotate several stirring rods 17, which perform secondary mixing of the seasonings in the mixing tank 3 to improve the degree of mixing.

[0033] Furthermore, the top of the conveying pipe 4 is connected to several connecting pipes 18, and the number of connecting pipes 18 is not less than that of the feed pipe 5. The feed pipe 5 is distributed one-to-one with the adjacent connecting pipes 18 along the vertical direction. The top of the connecting pipe 18 is detachably connected to the feed pipe 5 through the connecting flange 19.

[0034] The feed pipe 5 and the connecting pipe 18 are connected and fixed by the connecting flange 19, and the number of connecting pipes 18 is greater than that of the feed pipe 5, which can meet the needs of mixing various seasonings. The connecting pipes 18 that are not used can be sealed by fixing the cover plate 21 to the connecting flange 19.

[0035] This utility model provides the working principle of a plant protein seasoning dispensing device: The control valve 2 is opened and the seasoning is fed into the feed hopper 6 through the feeding pipe 1. At this time, the baffle 7 blocks the feed pipe 5. The pressure sensor 8 detects the amount of seasoning added. After the corresponding seasoning ratio is met, the control valve 2 is closed. After the seasoning is stopped from being fed into several feed hoppers 6, several servo cylinders 9 are activated to pull the baffle 7 and open the feed pipe 5. During the process, the sealing strip 11 sweeps across the top surface of the baffle 7 to fully feed the seasoning into the conveying pipe 4. The first servo motor 12 and the second servo motor 15 are activated. During the conveying process of the auger 14, the stirring rod 17 rotates to stir and mix the seasoning synchronously and graded, thereby improving the feeding efficiency and mixing efficiency.
