Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, specifically to an integrated device for washing and draining food raw materials. Background Technology
[0002] In the food processing industry, some food raw materials require thorough cleaning and effective draining before being sent to the production line for further processing. Currently, the industry's commonly used process generally consists of four steps: cleaning, gravity draining, vibratory draining, and air blade drying. During air blade drying, the conveyor belts are arranged to flip the raw materials. This method results in a long overall cleaning and draining process, a long cleaning and draining time, a large equipment footprint, and high operating costs.
[0003] Secondly, most widely used air-drying equipment employs a centrifugal fan combined with a flat-nozzle nozzle. Multiple small centrifugal fans are arranged along the material movement direction on the drying line. These fans typically draw air directly from the workshop environment as the drying air source. In actual use, even in a clean workshop environment, dust and microorganisms are still inevitable in the air. Over long-term operation, dirt accumulates on the impeller, becoming a new source of pollution. Therefore, this method places high demands on the workshop environment, fan cleanliness standards, and maintenance cycles; otherwise, it can cause secondary contamination of the raw materials. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides an integrated device for washing and draining food raw materials.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: An integrated food ingredient washing and draining device includes: A cleaning tank is provided with a primary conveyor belt that is inclined upward at one end. A vibrating draining assembly is provided behind the end of the primary conveyor belt. A spraying device is provided in the middle of the cleaning tank and at the front of the primary conveyor belt. The vibratory draining assembly includes a support base, a vibrating frame is provided on the top of the support base via an elastic element, a vibration source is provided at the bottom of the vibrating frame, a stepped screen is inclined inside the vibrating frame, and a drying assembly is provided on the top inner side of the vibrating frame and the rear section of the primary conveyor belt. The drying assembly includes an air supply pipeline and several air nozzles, and the air supply pipeline is configured to supply a clean air source.
[0006] Preferably, the spraying device includes a filter water tank for filtering water in the cleaning tank. The filter water tank is connected to a circulation pump via a pipe, and the outlet of the circulation pump is connected to a water supply pipe. Several cleaning nozzles are evenly arranged axially on the water supply pipe.
[0007] Preferably, the vibrating frame includes a water collection tank, the top surface of which is provided with a sealing cover, the screen is located at the top of the inner side of the water collection tank, and one end of the water collection tank is located below the end of the primary conveyor belt.
[0008] Preferably, the end of the screen is inclined downward at 2-5°, the screen has at least two screen surfaces, and the height of the screen surfaces decreases gradually along the inclined direction.
[0009] Preferably, the top surface of the screen is provided with a plurality of spacers along the axial direction, with two adjacent spacers arranged in parallel, and the surface of the spacers is smooth.
[0010] Preferably, the air nozzle is a flat nozzle.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention simplifies the drying process and reduces the equipment's footprint by integrating vibration dewatering and air drying. By setting multiple sets of air drying components, it achieves multi-stage air drying, improving the drying effect and shortening the drying time. It abandons the traditional fan-driven air supply and adopts centralized air supply, ensuring the cleanliness of the air source, eliminating secondary pollution caused by ambient air, and facilitating the control of air volume at different locations, thereby controlling the air drying effect.

[0014] 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.
[0015] Example 1: Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention will describe the above technical solution in detail through the following embodiments: An integrated food ingredient washing and draining device includes: The washing tank 1 has a primary conveyor belt 2 that is inclined upward at one end. A vibrating draining component is provided behind the end of the primary conveyor belt 2. A spraying device is provided in the middle of the washing tank 1 and the front section of the primary conveyor belt 2.
[0016] The cleaning tank 1 is used to hold cleaning water and soak the material, and the spray device is used to spray water to clean the top and sides of the material.
[0017] The primary conveyor belt 2 is a mesh or perforated conveyor belt used to lift materials from the washing tank 1 to a high place, so that they are removed from the water surface and are initially drained by gravity.
[0018] A spraying device is installed at the front end of the primary conveyor belt 2 to wash the material that has fallen off the water surface, ensuring the cleaning effect.
[0019] The vibratory draining assembly includes a support base 7, a vibrating frame is provided on the top of the support base 7 via an elastic element 8, a vibration source 10 is provided at the bottom of the vibrating frame, a stepped screen 11 is inclined inside the vibrating frame, and an air drying assembly is provided on the top inner side of the vibrating frame and the rear section of the primary conveyor belt 2. The air drying assembly includes an air supply pipe and several air nozzles 17, and the air supply pipe is configured to supply a clean air source.
[0020] The vibration source 10 adopts a known vibration motor. When the vibration source 10 is working, it can drive the vibration frame to vibrate, thereby driving the screen 11 to vibrate, and using the vibration to remove water droplets from the surface of the material.
[0021] The screen 11 is set in a stepped shape, which can turn the material over to ensure the drainage effect.
[0022] The drying assembly at the rear of the primary conveyor belt 2 is used for preliminary drying of the material. During this process, most of the water on the surface of the material can be removed, saving time for subsequent processing. It can also blow away the water remaining on the surface of the primary conveyor belt 2, ensuring that most of the washing water can be returned to the washing tank 1, thereby saving water.
[0023] The air-drying component on the top inside the vibrating rack is used to remove residual water stains from the surface of the material.
[0024] The spraying device includes a filter water tank 3, which is used to filter the water in the cleaning tank 1. The filter water tank 3 is connected to a circulation pump 4 through a pipe. The outlet of the circulation pump 4 is connected to a water supply pipe 5. Several cleaning nozzles 6 are evenly arranged axially on the water supply pipe 5.
[0025] The water filter tank 3 can be equipped with known filter materials such as filter cotton and zeolite to filter impurities in the water and ensure the normal operation of the circulation pump 4.
[0026] The circulating pump 4 is used to pump water from the cleaning tank 1 to the water supply pipe 5, and then spray it out from the cleaning nozzle 6 to rinse the material.
[0027] The vibrating frame includes a water collection tank 9, and a sealing cover 13 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the water collection tank 9 by screws. The screen 11 is located on the top of the inner side of the water collection tank 9, and one end of the water collection tank 9 is located below the end of the primary conveyor belt 2.
[0028] The vibration source 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water collection tank 9 by bolts. When the vibration source 10 is working, it can drive the water collection tank 9, the screen 11 and the sealing cover 13 to vibrate.
[0029] After the material leaves the end of the primary conveyor belt 2, it falls into the water collection tank 9 and onto the screen 11. The screen 11 vibrates, causing the material to vibrate, thereby shaking out the water droplets remaining inside the material. The shaken-out water droplets pass through the screen 11 and fall into the water collection tank 9.
[0030] Drainage can be achieved by setting a drain outlet at the bottom of the water collection tank 9. The design of the drain outlet is something that those skilled in the art can easily conceive of, and will not be elaborated here.
[0031] The end of the screen 11 is inclined downward at 2-5°, and the screen 11 has at least two screen surfaces, with the height of each screen surface decreasing gradually along the inclined direction.
[0032] In this embodiment, the screen 11 has three screen surfaces, and the tilt angle is set to 3°.
[0033] It is important to note that the height of the drying components on the top inner side of the vibrating frame needs to be set according to the height of the screen surface to ensure that the material on each screen surface dries consistently.
[0034] The inclined screen 11 allows the material to move towards the end while vibrating. The stepped screen surface allows the material to tumble, ensuring uniform force distribution.
[0035] The top surface of the screen 11 is provided with several spacers 12 axially, with two adjacent spacers 12 arranged in parallel, and the surface of the spacers 12 is smooth.
[0036] The spacer 12 can make the material evenly distributed when the screen 11 vibrates, which facilitates drying.
[0037] The air nozzle 17 uses a flat nozzle.
[0038] When the flat nozzle ejects gas, it can form a fan-shaped airflow surface, which can cover a larger area and ensure the drying effect.
[0039] The gas supply pipeline includes a main gas supply pipe 14, one end of which is connected to a clean gas source, and the other end is connected to several gas supply branch pipes 15. Gas nozzles 17 are evenly distributed on the gas supply branch pipes 15. The gas nozzles 17 can be set at an angle of 15-45° with the material. A control valve 16 is also required on the main gas supply pipe 14 to control the gas flow rate.
[0040] The clean air source can be filtered compressed air or a large centrifugal fan. Note that when using a centrifugal fan, the air must be filtered before it can be supplied to the main air supply pipe 14.
[0041] Working principle: The material is fed into the washing tank 1 from the end away from the primary conveyor belt 2, and the circulating pump 4 is controlled to work, and the material is rinsed by the washing nozzle 6.
[0042] Control the operation of primary conveyor belt 2 to lift the washed material to a higher position.
[0043] During the lifting process, the spray device at the front of the primary conveyor belt 2 will perform a secondary rinse on the material to remove impurities attached to the surface. The air drying component at the rear of the primary conveyor belt 2 will be supplied with a low-pressure clean air source to remove the residual cleaning water on the surface of the material and dry the surface of the primary conveyor belt 2.
[0044] The material detaches from the end of the primary conveyor belt 2 and then falls onto the screen 11.
[0045] The vibration source 10 is controlled to operate, causing the screen 11 to vibrate, which in turn causes the material to vibrate, dislodging any residual water inside the material. The dislodged water passes through the screen 11 and falls into the water collection tank 9 and is then discharged.
[0046] When vibrating, the material will slide along the screen 11 and flip over at the junction of the two screen surfaces.
[0047] During vibration, the material will gradually be evenly distributed due to the influence of the spacer 12.
[0048] While the vibration drains water, the air-drying component on the top inner side of the vibrating frame blows out clean air for final drying.
[0049] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
