[0027] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 As shown:

[0028] Example 1:

[0029] This utility model provides a steam pressure mixer for making rice cakes, including a mixer body 1, an assembly bracket 2 installed at the bottom of the mixer body 1, a drive mechanism 3 installed on the inner wall of the assembly bracket 2, and a socket box 4 installed on the back of both the mixer body 1 and the assembly bracket 2, with a transmission mechanism provided on the inner wall of the socket box 4.

[0030] A fixing rod 5 is installed on one side of the transmission mechanism. A insertion groove 6 is opened at one end of the fixing rod 5. A positioning rod 7 is installed on the inner wall of the insertion groove 6. A limit hole 8 is opened on the surface of the positioning rod 7.

[0031] A limiting rod 9 is inserted into the inner wall of the insertion slot 6. A positioning groove 10 is provided on the inner wall of the limiting rod 9, and the inner wall of the positioning groove 10 is sleeved on the surface of the positioning rod 7. A height adjustment mechanism 11 is installed on one side of the inner wall of the limiting rod 9 located in the positioning groove 10. A positioning block 12 is installed at the output end of the height adjustment mechanism 11, and the surface of the positioning block 12 is inserted into the inner wall of the limiting hole 8.

[0032] A stirring rod 13 is installed at one end of the limiting rod 9. Multiple stirring blades 14 are fixedly connected to the surface of the stirring rod 13. A driving rod 23 is installed at the output end of the driving mechanism 3. A driving wheel 24 is installed on the surface of the driving rod 23. A transmission belt 25 is rotatably connected to the surface of the driving wheel 24. A transmission wheel 26 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the transmission belt 25. The inner wall of the transmission wheel 26 is installed on the surface of the fixed rod 5. The driving rod 23, the driving wheel 24, the transmission belt 25 and the transmission wheel 26 together form a transmission mechanism.

[0033] In use, the drive mechanism 3 (which can be a drive motor) drives the drive wheel 24 to rotate via the drive rod 23. The drive wheel 24 drives the transmission wheel 26 to rotate via the transmission belt 25. The transmission wheel 26 is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 5, thereby transmitting power to the fixed rod 5. One end of the fixed rod 5 is provided with a insertion groove 6, and a positioning rod 7 is installed inside. The surface of the positioning rod 7 is provided with a limit hole 8. The limit rod 9 is sleeved with the positioning rod 7 through the positioning groove 10 on its inner wall, and the positioning block 12 is inserted or retracted by the height adjustment mechanism 11 (which can be an electric telescopic rod). The limiting hole 8 allows the limiting rod 9 to be locked or separated from the fixing rod 5. The stirring rod 13 is fixed to the end of the limiting rod 9 and has multiple sets of stirring blades 14 on its surface. When disassembly is required, the positioning block 12 is adjusted to disengage from the limiting hole 8 by adjusting the height adjustment mechanism 11, so that the limiting rod 9 and the stirring rod 13 can be pulled out from the insertion slot 6. Conversely, installation is completed by adjusting the height adjustment mechanism 11. This makes the disassembly and assembly process of the stirring rod 13 and the stirring blades 14 simple and efficient, facilitates thorough cleaning of the inside of the mixer and the stirring rod 13, and ensures the stability and maintainability of the transmission structure.

[0034] Example 2:

[0035] This embodiment is basically the same as the previous embodiment, except that a steam generator 15 is installed on the inner wall of the mounting bracket 2 on one side of the drive mechanism 3. A conveying pipe 16 is installed at the output end of the steam generator 15. An annular connecting pipe 17 is fixedly connected to the top end of the conveying pipe 16. A heat-conducting pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the annular connecting pipe 17, and the surface of the heat-conducting pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mixer body 1. An output pipe 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the annular connecting pipe 17, and a solenoid valve is installed on the inner wall of the output pipe 19. The bottom end of the output pipe 19 is installed on the inner wall of the steam generator 15. A sealing door 20 is rotatably connected to the surface of the mixer body 1. A feed inlet 21 is opened on the top of the mixer body 1. A protective door 22 is rotatably connected to the top of the feed inlet 21. A temperature detector 27 is installed on one side of the mixer body 1. An mounting plate 28 is installed on one side of the mounting bracket 2. A controller 29 is installed on the top of the mounting plate 28. An mounting frame 30 is installed at the bottom of the mounting bracket 2. Universal wheels 31 are installed around the bottom of the mounting frame 30.

[0036] During use, the steam generated by the steam generator 15 is delivered to the annular connecting pipe 17 through the conveying pipe 16, and then evenly transferred to the inner wall of the mixer body 1 through the heat conduction pipe 18 to ensure that the rice cake raw materials are heated evenly. The output pipe 19 and the solenoid valve realize the steam recycling to improve energy efficiency. The sealing door 20 and the protective door 22 respectively seal the mixing chamber and the feed port 21 to prevent material leakage and ensure operational safety. The temperature detector 27 monitors the internal temperature of the mixer in real time and, together with the controller 29 (installed on the mounting plate 28), accurately adjusts the amount of steam generated to ensure the quality of the rice cake. The universal wheels 31 at the bottom of the mounting frame 30 allow the equipment to move flexibly and facilitate the adjustment of the production layout. The integrated design optimizes the steam heating efficiency and temperature stability, while taking into account the convenience and safety of operation.

[0037] Example 3:

[0038] Traditional rice cake workshops have long relied on manual stirring and steaming to make rice cakes, resulting in low production efficiency and inconsistent quality. Manual stirring makes it difficult to ensure the uniformity of the rice batter, while steaming suffers from inaccurate temperature control and uneven steam distribution, leading to inconsistent taste of the rice cakes. To improve both output and quality, this steam pressure mixer for making rice cakes is used to achieve automated stirring and precise steam heating, while also facilitating equipment cleaning and maintenance.

[0039] The mixer body 1 is fixed to the production area by the assembly bracket 2, and the bottom casters 31 facilitate temporary movement.

[0040] Connect the water and electricity supply to the steam generator 15, and adjust the controller 29 to set the steam temperature and stirring speed parameters.

[0041] Check the transmission mechanism: The drive mechanism 3 drives the drive wheel 24 through the drive rod 23, and then transmits the power to the drive wheel 26 and the fixed rod 5 through the transmission belt 25 to ensure smooth operation without jamming.

[0042] Open the protective door 22 of the feed inlet 21 and pour the prepared rice slurry into the main body 1 of the mixer.

[0043] Close the protective door 22 and the sealing door 20 to prevent steam leakage and ensure that the mixing chamber is sealed.

[0044] The controller 29 starts the steam generator 15, and the generated steam is delivered to the annular connecting pipe 17 through the conveying pipe 16, and then evenly heats the inner wall of the mixer through the heat conduction pipe 18.

[0045] Temperature detector 27 monitors the internal temperature in real time and feeds it back to controller 29 to dynamically adjust the amount of steam and maintain a constant temperature.

[0046] The drive mechanism 3 drives the stirring rod 13 to rotate, and multiple sets of stirring blades 14 fully mix the rice paste to prevent clumping and ensure even heating.

[0047] Excess steam is returned to the steam generator 15 via the output pipe 19 for recycling. The timing of the return is controlled by a solenoid valve to reduce energy consumption.

[0048] After production is completed, the height adjustment mechanism 11 is activated by the controller 29 to extend the electric telescopic rod, so that the positioning block 12 is disengaged from the limit hole 8.

[0049] Pull the limiting rod 9 and the stirring rod 13 out of the insertion slot 6, and directly rinse the stirring blade 14 and the rod body to thoroughly remove the residual rice paste.

[0050] After cleaning, reinsert the limiting rod 9, align the positioning groove 10 with the positioning rod 7, and the height adjustment mechanism 11 pushes the positioning block 12 into the limiting hole 8 to complete the fixing.

[0051] Move the equipment to the cleaning area using the casters 31, open the sealed door 20 and wipe the inner wall to ensure there are no unsanitary corners.

[0052] Regularly check the tension of the drive belt 25 and the sealing of the steam pipes to maintain the long-term stability of the equipment.

[0053] Working principle: The drive mechanism 3 drives the drive wheel 24 to rotate via the drive rod 23. The drive wheel 24 drives the transmission wheel 26 to rotate via the transmission belt 25. The transmission wheel 26 is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 5, thereby transmitting power to the fixed rod 5. One end of the fixed rod 5 is provided with an insertion groove 6, and a positioning rod 7 is installed inside. The surface of the positioning rod 7 is provided with a limit hole 8. The limit rod 9 is sleeved with the positioning rod 7 through the positioning groove 10 on its inner wall, and the positioning block 12 is inserted or removed from the limit hole 8 by the height adjustment mechanism 11, so as to lock or separate the limit rod 9 from the fixed rod 5. The stirring rod 13 is fixed at the end of the limit rod 9, and multiple sets of stirring blades 14 are provided on its surface. When the drive mechanism 3 is running, the stirring rod 13 drives the stirring blades 14 to rotate in the mixer body 1, so as to fully stir and mix the rice cake raw materials. At the same time, the steam generated by the steam generator 15 is delivered to the annular connecting pipe 17 through the conveying pipe 16, and then evenly transmitted to the inner wall of the mixer body 1 through the heat conduction pipe 18, so that the rice cake raw materials are mixed. The mixing process ensures uniform heating; the output pipe 19 and solenoid valve enable steam recycling, improving energy efficiency; the temperature detector 27 monitors the internal temperature of the mixer in real time and feeds the data back to the controller 29, which adjusts the working state of the steam generator 15 according to the set parameters to ensure the temperature remains stable within a suitable range; the sealing door 20 and the protective door 22 seal the mixing chamber and the feed inlet 21 respectively to prevent steam leakage and ensure operational safety; when cleaning and maintenance are required, the positioning block 12 can be disengaged from the limiting hole 8 by adjusting the height adjustment mechanism 11, allowing the limiting rod 9 and the mixing rod 13 to be pulled out from the insertion slot 6 for thorough cleaning of the mixer and the mixing rod 13; the casters 31 at the bottom of the mounting frame 30 allow for flexible movement of the equipment, facilitating production layout adjustments; the entire system, through the coordinated work of its components, achieves integrated functions of efficient mixing, precise temperature control, convenient cleaning, and flexible movement during rice cake production, significantly improving production efficiency and product quality.
