Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a mixing device for food processing. Background Technology

[0002] Food processing refers to the processing of grains, feed, vegetable oils and sugars, slaughtering and meat processing, aquatic products, and vegetables, fruits and nuts, directly using agricultural, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery products as raw materials. It is a type of agricultural product processing industry in a broad sense. During food processing, different foods often need to be mixed, so food processing mixing equipment is required. However, traditional food processing mixing equipment has some drawbacks that affect daily use.

[0003] The primary problem is that traditional food processing mixing devices have limited mixing range and force for food raw materials containing moisture, oil, or viscous components, easily leading to localized material agglomeration and clumping. Without auxiliary mixing devices, these clumps cannot be broken up and integrated with other materials in time, resulting in uneven particle size and significant differences in taste in the finished product. When materials become locally thick or clump due to uneven mixing, the main mixing device needs to overcome greater resistance. Long-term operation can lead to motor overload, accelerated wear of the mixing body, and increased probability of equipment failure and maintenance frequency.

[0004] A more significant issue is the lack of cleaning devices in traditional food processing mixing equipment. During processing, food ingredients, especially those containing sugars, oils, and proteins, easily accumulate on the inner walls, mixing paddles, and corners of these devices. Without a cleaning device, these residues are difficult to remove completely and, under suitable temperature and humidity conditions, can rapidly breed bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms, leading to spoilage. In subsequent batches, these spoiled residues can contaminate the new materials, affecting the product's flavor and quality, or even causing food safety incidents and endangering consumer health.

[0005] Crucially, the mixing components of traditional food processing mixing devices are difficult to disassemble. These components come into direct contact with the materials, and their surfaces are prone to accumulating viscous materials, fine particles, or grease. If disassembly is difficult, manual cleaning is challenging, making it hard to reach crevices and corners, leading to long-term residue buildup. Furthermore, the mixing components, operating at high speeds for extended periods, are prone to wear, deformation, or loose connections. If disassembly is inconvenient, maintenance personnel cannot quickly disassemble the components to inspect internal wear, potentially delaying troubleshooting. Traditional food processing often requires the same equipment to process different materials; if the mixing components are difficult to disassemble, it's impossible to quickly replace the blades with those suitable for different materials, thus narrowing the equipment's compatibility. Utility Model Content

[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a mixing device for food processing to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mixing device for food processing, comprising a mixing tank, a lid, and a worktable. The mixing tank is fixedly connected to the worktable and movably connected to the lid. The mixing tank is equipped with a disassembly-friendly mixing device and an auxiliary mixing device. The worktable is equipped with a cleaning device. The disassembly-friendly mixing device comprises a first motor, a disassembly / assembly base, an insert block, a mixing body, a limiting block, and bolts. The first motor is fixedly connected to the lid and rotatably connected to the disassembly / assembly base. The insert block is fixedly connected to the mixing body and movably connected to the disassembly / assembly base. The limiting block is movably connected to the insert block and is fixedly connected to the disassembly / assembly base by bolts. The auxiliary mixing device comprises a second motor, a rotating shaft, spiral blades, cutting blades, and a sealing sleeve. The second motor is fixedly connected to the worktable. The rotating shaft is respectively equipped with spiral blades and cutting blades. The rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor. The sealing sleeve is in contact with the rotating shaft and the mixing tank respectively.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the cleaning device includes a water storage tank, a water pump, a connecting hose, a nozzle, and a wastewater tank. The water storage tank and the water pump are both fixedly connected to the workbench. The water storage tank and the water pump are connected by a pipe. The connecting hose is fixedly connected to the water pump and the nozzle respectively. The wastewater tank is movably connected to the workbench.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the workbench is equipped with wheels and handles, thereby improving the flexibility of the equipment.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the handle is provided with a hook, and the hook is movably connected to the connecting hose, thereby improving the safety of the nozzle.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the mixing tank is provided with an observation window and a discharge port with a baffle plate.

[0012] The present invention is further provided that the lid is provided with a lifting lug, which improves the safety of the lid during use.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the easily detachable stirring device is provided with a bottom scraping blade, the bottom scraping blade is fixedly connected to the stirring body, and the bottom scraping blade is movably connected to the stirring tank, thereby improving the utilization rate of raw materials and the cleanliness of the bottom of the tank.

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a mixing device for food processing, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. A complete auxiliary stirring device is formed by the close cooperation between the second motor, rotating shaft, spiral blades, cutting blades, and sealing sleeve. For materials containing viscous components or prone to agglomeration, the main stirring device alone is prone to clumping. The high-speed dispersing disc or toothed stirring component in the auxiliary stirring device can break up the agglomerates through shearing and impact, ensuring that the material particles are fine and evenly distributed. The auxiliary stirring device works in conjunction with the main stirring device to agitate the material from different angles and in different ways, greatly accelerating the mixing speed of the material and shortening the processing time of a single batch. When dealing with high-viscosity or high-elasticity materials, the main stirring device may be difficult to stir effectively due to excessive resistance. The auxiliary stirring device can reduce the resistance of the material to the main stirring device through special motion trajectory and force, while achieving full stirring of the material.

[0015] 2. A complete cleaning system is formed by the close cooperation of the water storage tank, water pump, connecting hoses, nozzles, and wastewater tank. The cleaning system can specifically clean the inner wall of the mixing tank, the mixing paddle, and crevices and corners, effectively removing residual food ingredients and preventing the residue from spoiling and deteriorating inside the equipment, thus cutting off the nutrient source for microbial growth at the source. In multi-product production scenarios, the cleaning system can quickly clean the equipment, preventing the contamination of new materials with residue from previous batches, while reducing the risk of cross-contamination with allergens and ensuring the food safety of people with special dietary needs. Long-term adhesion of residual materials can corrode the metal surface of the equipment and wear down the mixing parts. Regular cleaning by the cleaning system can reduce the corrosion of the equipment by the materials. At the same time, the cleaning system can wash and recycle the residual materials adhering to the equipment, improving the utilization rate of raw materials and saving costs.

[0016] 3. Through the tight cooperation between the first motor, disassembly base, insert block, stirring body, limit block, and bolts, a complete easy-to-disassemble stirring device is formed. When the stirring components are easily disassembled, workers can easily remove the stirring parts completely, facilitating thorough cleaning of areas prone to dirt accumulation, such as crevices and corners. During cleaning, there is no need to spend a lot of time loosening the fixed parts; a single person can quickly complete the disassembly, making the cleaning process smoother and more efficient. When the stirring components malfunction, such as abnormal bearing noise or blade shaking, the easy disassembly allows maintenance personnel to quickly disassemble the components, accurately locate the fault point, and repair it in a timely manner. To meet the processing needs of different types of materials, the stirring blades can be quickly disassembled and replaced with suitable ones, making the equipment applicable to the production of more categories and improving the flexibility and versatility of the production line.

The auxiliary mixing device includes a second motor 10, a rotating shaft 11, a spiral blade 12, a cutting blade 13, and a sealing sleeve 14. The second motor 10 is fixedly connected to the workbench 3. The rotating shaft 11 is equipped with the spiral blade 12 and the cutting blade 13. The rotating shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 10. The sealing sleeve 14 is in contact with the rotating shaft 11 and the mixing tank 1.

[0023] In a further embodiment of this application, the cleaning device includes a water storage tank 15, a water pump 16, a connecting hose 17, a nozzle 18, and a wastewater tank 19. The water storage tank 15 and the water pump 16 are both fixedly connected to the workbench 3. The water storage tank 15 and the water pump 16 are connected by a pipe. The connecting hose 17 is fixedly connected to the water pump 16 and the nozzle 18 respectively. The wastewater tank 19 is movably connected to the workbench 3.

[0024] In a further embodiment of this application, the workbench 3 is provided with wheels 20 and handles 21, which make the device more flexible.

[0025] In a further embodiment of this application, the handle 21 is provided with a hook 22, which is movably connected to the connecting hose 17. The connecting hose 17 can be hung on the hook 22 to prevent the nozzle 18 from slipping to the ground and being crushed, and also to facilitate the removal of the nozzle 18.

[0026] In a further embodiment of this application, the mixing tank 1 is provided with an observation window 23 and a baffle outlet 24. After observing through the observation window 23 that the raw materials have been mixed, the baffle in the baffle outlet 24 can be removed to discharge the mixed raw materials.

[0027] In a further embodiment of this application, the cover 2 is provided with a lifting lug 25, which can be used to lift the cover 2, making it convenient for equipment replacement and cleaning.

[0028] In a further embodiment of this application, the easily detachable stirring device is provided with a bottom scraper blade 26, which is fixedly connected to the stirring body 7 and movably connected to the stirring tank 1. When the stirring body 7 rotates, it will drive the bottom scraper blade 26 to rotate, so that the bottom scraper blade 26 mixes the raw materials at the bottom of the tank while ensuring that there is not too much raw material piled up at the bottom of the tank for easy cleaning.

[0029] In this embodiment, when the device is needed, the lid 2 is lifted by the lifting lug 25 and the raw material is poured into the mixing tank 1. The lid 2 is then replaced and the first motor 4 is started to make the mixing body 7 rotate to mix the materials. When the mixing body 7 rotates, it will drive the bottom scraper blade 26 to rotate, so that the bottom scraper blade 26 mixes the raw material at the bottom of the tank and ensures that there is not too much raw material piled up at the bottom of the tank for easy cleaning. Then, the second motor 10 is started to make the rotating shaft 11 rotate and drive the spiral blade 12 and the cutting blade 13 to rotate. The cutting blade 13 rotates to break up the high viscosity raw material, and the spiral blade 12 rotates to increase the fluidity of the raw material in the tank. The sealing sleeve 14 prevents the rotating shaft 11 from wearing against the tank wall when it rotates and ensures that the raw material in the tank does not leak out.

[0030] More specifically, when replacing the mixing components according to different raw materials, lift the cover 2, unscrew the bolt 9, slide the limit block 8 along the disassembly seat 5 to remove it, then slide the insert block 6 along the disassembly seat 5 to remove the mixing body 7, and then repeat the same steps in reverse to install the replacement mixing component. When it is necessary to clean the mixing tank 1, start the water pump 16 to transport the clean water in the water storage tank 15 to the nozzle 18 through the connecting hose 17. Remove the nozzle 18 from the hook 22 and aim it at the mixing tank 1, so that the clean water sprayed from the nozzle 18 can rinse the tank wall. The rinsing water flows into the sewage tank 19 through the insert plate outlet 24. The sewage tank 19 can be removed from the workbench 3 to remove the sewage. The wheels 20 and handles 21 make the equipment more flexible.

[0031] In summary, during the use or operation of the entire equipment: the lid 2 is lifted by the lifting lug 25 and the raw materials are poured into the mixing tank 1. The lid 2 is then replaced and the first motor 4 is started to make the mixing body 7 rotate to mix the materials. When the mixing body 7 rotates, it will drive the bottom scraper blade 26 to rotate, so that the bottom scraper blade 26 mixes the raw materials at the bottom of the tank and ensures that there is not too much raw material piled up at the bottom of the tank for easy cleaning. Then, the second motor 10 is started to make the rotating shaft 11 rotate and drive the spiral blade 12 and the cutting blade 13 to rotate. The cutting blade 13 rotates to break up the high viscosity raw materials, and the spiral blade 12 rotates to increase the fluidity of the raw materials in the tank. The sealing sleeve 14 prevents the rotating shaft 11 from wearing against the tank wall when it rotates and ensures that the raw materials in the tank do not leak out. After observing through the observation window 23 that the raw materials have been mixed, the insert plate in the insert plate discharge port 24 can be removed to discharge the mixed raw materials.

[0032] When replacing the mixing components according to different raw materials, lift the cover 2, unscrew the bolt 9 and slide the limit block 8 out along the disassembly seat 5, then slide the insert block 6 out along the disassembly seat 5 to remove the mixing body 7. Repeat this process in reverse to install the replacement mixing component. When it is necessary to clean the mixing tank 1, start the water pump 16 to transport the clean water in the water storage tank 15 to the nozzle 18 through the connecting hose 17. Remove the nozzle 18 from the hook 22 and aim it at the mixing tank 1 so that the clean water sprayed from the nozzle 18 can rinse the tank wall. The rinsing water flows into the sewage tank 19 through the outlet 24 of the insert plate. The sewage tank 19 can be removed from the workbench 3 to remove the sewage. The wheels 20 and handles 21 make the equipment more flexible.
