[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tofu processing equipment, specifically relating to a raw material cleaning device for tofu processing. Background Technology
[0002] In the tofu processing industry, soybeans are made into soy milk, which is then coagulated into a gel containing a large amount of water under the combined action of heat and a coagulant, thus forming tofu. Before making soy milk, the raw soybeans need to be washed. Traditional methods of washing raw materials generally involve direct rinsing, but the soybeans tend to clump together, making it impossible to thoroughly remove the mud and sand from their surface. Some existing washing devices use agitation, but their structure is complex, operation is cumbersome, and the discharge of the soybeans after washing is time-consuming and labor-intensive, severely impacting the efficiency of tofu processing. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model aims to provide a raw material cleaning device for tofu processing. This device can thoroughly and effectively clean the raw soybeans, improve the quality of tofu processing, and the unloading operation after cleaning is very simple and convenient, more labor-saving and efficient, thus significantly improving the efficiency of tofu processing.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A raw material cleaning device for tofu processing includes a cleaning tank and a base. The cleaning tank has its opening facing upwards and is located above the base. A lifting frame is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the cleaning tank. A rotating shaft is horizontally mounted horizontally along the length of the cleaning tank below the lifting frame. Multiple material feeding plates are vertically fixed to the rotating shaft along its length. The rotating shaft is powered by a motor on the lifting frame. A lifting drive assembly for driving the vertical movement of the lifting frame is installed inside the cleaning tank. A base plate is fixedly mounted on the bottom right side of the cleaning tank and is rotatably connected to the base. A tilting drive assembly is mounted on the base plate, and the actuating part of the tilting drive assembly is connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank. A discharge port is opened on the right side wall of the cleaning tank, and a slide valve is installed at the discharge port. A screen plate is vertically movable at the discharge port close to the right side of the slide valve, and a lifting mechanism is installed above the screen plate.
[0005] Preferably, the cleaning box includes a first box and a second box. The first box is a semi-cylindrical design with an opening at the top and a cavity in the middle, and the second box is a square cylindrical design. The second box is assembled and fixedly connected to the opening at the top of the first box.
[0006] Preferably, a slide rail is vertically installed on the inner wall of the cleaning tank, and the lifting frame is vertically slidably installed on the slide rail.
[0007] Preferably, the lifting drive assembly includes a first telescopic cylinder, which is vertically installed inside the cleaning tank, and the piston rod of the first telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the lifting frame.
[0008] Preferably, the flipping drive assembly includes a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, and a second telescopic cylinder. The upper end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to a first hinge block at the bottom of the cleaning tank. The lower end of the first connecting rod is tilted to the right and rotatably connected to the upper end of the second connecting rod. The lower end of the second connecting rod is tilted to the left and rotatably connected to a second hinge block on the base. The tail of the second telescopic cylinder is rotatably connected to the second hinge block. The piston rod of the second telescopic cylinder is tilted to the right and rotatably connected to the middle of the first connecting rod.
[0009] Preferably, a support block is fixed on the left side of the base, and the bottom of the cleaning tank is supported on the support block.
[0010] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a third telescopic cylinder, which is vertically mounted downwards on the mounting bracket of the slide valve, and the piston rod of the third telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mesh plate.
[0011] Preferably, the mesh plate includes a frame and a filter screen, the filter screen is installed in the middle of the frame, and the piston rod of the third telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the frame.
[0012] Preferably, a plurality of reinforcing ribs are fixed in the middle of the frame.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. When the rotating shaft of this application drives the material-dispensing plate to rotate and agitate the raw materials, the bottom of the cleaning tank is designed as a semi-cylindrical shape, which can cooperate with the rotating material-dispensing plate to effectively agitate the material at the arc-shaped bottom of the cleaning tank. This can effectively prevent the material from accumulating at the bottom of the cleaning tank and improve the cleaning quality of the raw materials.
[0014] 2. When the raw material feeding operation is carried out, the second telescopic cylinder is activated. When its piston rod extends, the first and second connecting rods rotate, thereby lifting the washing box upward and causing the washing box to rotate clockwise to the right with the right rotating connection as the center. This allows the washed soybean raw material to be poured out from the right feeding port, thereby significantly improving the discharge efficiency of the raw material after washing.
[0015] 3. When the raw material cleaning operation is required, the first telescopic cylinder extends and drives the lifting frame to move downward, so that the material-dispensing plate is close to the bottom of the cleaning box, which can thoroughly agitate and clean the raw material at the bottom of the cleaning box; when the cleaning is completed and the material is unloaded, the first telescopic cylinder moves the lifting frame, rotating shaft, material-dispensing plate, etc. upward, which can effectively prevent the material-dispensing plate and other components from affecting the pouring and discharge of the raw material.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of application of this utility model.
[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model proposes a raw material cleaning device for tofu processing, including a cleaning tank 1 and a base 4. The cleaning tank 1 is positioned above the base 4 with its opening facing upwards. A lifting frame 2 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1. A rotating shaft 31 is horizontally mounted along the length of the cleaning tank 1 below the lifting frame 2. Multiple material feeding plates 32 are perpendicularly fixed to the rotating shaft 31 along its length. The rotating shaft 31 is poweredly connected to a motor 33 on the lifting frame 2. The output shaft of the motor 33 can be connected to the rotating shaft 31 via a gear structure or directly to the rotating shaft 31. The cleaning tank 1 includes a first tank body 101 and a second tank body 102. The first tank body 101 is a semi-cylindrical design with an opening at the top and a cavity in the middle. The second tank body 102 is a square cylindrical design. The second tank body 102 is fixedly connected to the opening at the top of the first tank body 101.
[0019] When the rotating shaft 31 drives the material-dispensing plate 32 to rotate and agitate the raw materials, the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 is designed as a semi-cylindrical shape, which can cooperate with the rotating material-dispensing plate 32 to effectively agitate the material at the arc-shaped bottom of the cleaning tank 1. This can effectively prevent the material from accumulating at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1 and improve the quality of raw material cleaning.
[0020] The cleaning tank 1 is equipped with a lifting drive assembly for driving the vertical movement of the lifting frame 2. A slide rail 11 is vertically mounted on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1, and the lifting frame 2 is vertically slidably mounted on the slide rail 11, which improves the stability of the lifting frame 2 during vertical movement. The lifting drive assembly includes a first telescopic cylinder 21, which is vertically mounted inside the cleaning tank 1, and its piston rod is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 2. The first telescopic cylinder 21 can be a hydraulic cylinder.
[0021] When the raw material cleaning operation is required, the first telescopic cylinder 21 extends and drives the lifting frame 2 to move downward, so that the material-dispensing plate 32 is close to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, which can thoroughly agitate and clean the raw material at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1. When the cleaning is completed and the material is unloaded, the first telescopic cylinder 21 is used to drive the lifting frame 2, the rotating shaft 31, the material-dispensing plate 32 and other components to move upward, which can effectively prevent the material-dispensing plate 32 and other components from affecting the pouring and discharge of the raw material.
[0022] A discharge port 14 is provided on the right side wall of the cleaning tank 1. A bottom plate 12 is fixedly provided on the bottom right side of the cleaning tank 1, and the bottom plate 12 is rotatably connected to the base 4. A tilting drive assembly is installed on the bottom plate 12, and the moving part of the tilting drive assembly is connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1. The tilting drive assembly includes a first connecting rod 51, a second connecting rod 52, and a second telescopic cylinder 53. The upper end of the first connecting rod 51 is rotatably connected to the first hinge block 13 at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1. The lower end of the first connecting rod 51 is tilted to the right and rotatably connected to the upper end of the second connecting rod 52. The lower end of the second connecting rod 52 is tilted to the left and rotatably connected to the second hinge block 42 on the base 4. The tail of the second telescopic cylinder 53 is rotatably connected to the second hinge block 42, and the piston rod of the second telescopic cylinder 53 is tilted to the right and rotatably connected to the middle part of the first connecting rod 51. The second telescopic cylinder 53 can be a hydraulic cylinder.
[0023] When the raw material feeding operation is carried out, the second telescopic cylinder 53 is activated. When its piston rod extends, the first connecting rod 51 and the second connecting rod 52 rotate, thereby lifting the washing box 1 upward and causing the washing box 1 to rotate clockwise to the right with the right rotating connection as the center. This allows the washed soybean raw material to be poured out from the right feeding port 14, thereby significantly improving the discharge efficiency of the raw material after washing.
[0024] A support block 41 is fixed on the left side of the base 4. The bottom of the cleaning box 1 is supported on the support block 41. When the cleaning box 1 is flipped over and rotated to the left to reset, it will be supported on the support block 41, which can effectively improve the structural stability of the cleaning box 1.
[0025] A slide gate valve 6 is installed at the discharge port 14; a screen plate 7 is vertically and movably installed at the discharge port on the right side of the slide gate valve 6, and a lifting mechanism is installed above the screen plate 7. In this embodiment, the slide gate valve 6 is a commonly used electric slide gate valve 6 in the prior art, the principle of which is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail.
[0026] The lifting mechanism includes a third telescopic cylinder 8, which is vertically mounted downwards on the mounting bracket of the slide valve 6. The piston rod of the third telescopic cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mesh plate 7. In this embodiment, the mesh plate 7 includes a frame 71 and a filter screen 73. The filter screen 73 is installed in the middle of the frame 71, and the piston rod of the third telescopic cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the frame 71. Multiple reinforcing ribs 72 are also fixedly installed in the middle of the frame 71, which can improve the structural strength of the mesh plate 7 during drainage filtration.
[0027] When using this invention, the lifting drive assembly moves the lifting frame 2, rotating shaft 31, and material-dispensing plate 32 downwards towards the bottom of the cleaning tank 1. Then, raw materials and cleaning water are poured into the cleaning tank 1, and the motor 33 is started. With the rotation of the material-dispensing plate 32, the raw materials can be thoroughly agitated and cleaned. After cleaning, the lifting drive assembly moves the lifting frame 2, material-dispensing plate 32, and other components upwards to reset. The right-side slide valve 6 is opened, and the second telescopic cylinder 53 of the tilting drive assembly is controlled to move, causing the cleaning tank 1 to tilt to the right at a small angle. The cleaning water is filtered out using the filtering effect of the right-side mesh plate 7. After the cleaning water is discharged, the third telescopic cylinder 8 moves the mesh plate 7 upwards, and the second telescopic cylinder 53 is controlled to continue to extend, causing the cleaning tank 1 to tilt at a larger angle, so that the raw materials in the cleaning tank 1 can be completely dumped, thereby significantly improving the cleaning and unloading efficiency of the raw materials.
