Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pasta processing equipment, and in particular to a dough proofing device and its discharge mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] After the dough has proofed in the proofing box, it is transported to the discharge port by a conveyor belt or other conveying mechanism. The discharge port is equipped with an inclined discharge chute. When the dough reaches the discharge port, it falls into the inclined discharge chute and then slides down the discharge chute to a suitable height. The dough is then manually removed from the discharge chute and proceeded to the next step of production.

[0003] As the dough slides down the discharge chute, it tends to stick to the chute, resulting in uneven and slow discharge, which affects production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a dough proofing device and its discharge mechanism, which can prevent the dough from sticking to the discharge trough when discharging and improve the smoothness of the discharge.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a discharge mechanism, including a horizontal discharge box, wherein a discharge port is provided at the bottom of the discharge end of the discharge box, and the discharge port is connected to an inclined discharge trough;

[0006] An oil storage container is provided above the discharge port, and an oil supply mechanism for supplying oil to the discharge port is provided at the bottom of the oil storage container.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper end of the discharge trough is connected to the discharge port via a connecting cylinder, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting cylinder decreases from top to bottom.

[0008] Furthermore, the oil supply mechanism includes an oil pump and an oil drain ring pipe. The oil drain ring pipe is circular and is horizontally positioned above the connecting cylinder. Multiple oil drain holes are provided at the bottom of the oil drain ring pipe. The inlet of the oil pump is connected to the oil storage container, and the outlet of the oil pump is connected to the oil drain ring pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, the oil pump is an injection pump or a peristaltic pump.

[0010] Furthermore, the outlet of the oil pump is connected to a vertical oil delivery pipe, which is coaxial with the oil discharge ring pipe. The lower end of the oil delivery pipe is connected to multiple inclined branch oil pipes, which are evenly distributed around the oil delivery pipe. The lower end of each branch oil pipe is connected to the oil discharge ring pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, a conveying mechanism is installed inside the discharge box.

[0012] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism is a conveyor belt.

[0013] The dough proofing device of this utility model includes a proofing box, and the top side wall of the proofing box is provided with the above-mentioned discharge mechanism.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the oil storage container stores liquid edible oil, and the edible oil is transported to the discharge port by the oil supply mechanism. The edible oil can drip down onto the inner wall of the discharge trough. When the proofed dough reaches the discharge trough through the discharge port, there is a thin film of edible oil between the dough and the discharge trough. The edible oil film can isolate and reduce sliding friction, prevent the dough from sticking to the discharge trough, and reduce the frictional resistance when the dough slides, thereby achieving smooth discharge and ensuring production efficiency.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] The dough proofing device of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, it includes a proofing box 11, and a discharge mechanism is provided on the top side wall of the proofing box 11.

[0020] Generally, in large-scale pasta production workshops, the proofing box 11 used is bottom-feeding and top-discharging. The proofing box 11 of this invention can adopt any existing technology. During proofing, the kneaded dough is placed into the proofing box 11 from the bottom. The dough conveying mechanism inside the proofing box 11 gradually moves the dough upwards until it reaches the discharge mechanism. The temperature and humidity inside the proofing box 11 are controllable, ensuring the dough proofs in a stable environment.

[0021] The discharge mechanism of this utility model is as follows: Figure 1As shown, the system includes a horizontal discharge box 1, with its inlet end connected to a proofing box 11. A discharge port 2 is located at the bottom of the discharge end of the discharge box 1, and the discharge port 2 is connected to an inclined discharge trough 3. A conveying mechanism 10 is installed inside the discharge box 1, connected to a dough conveying mechanism within the proofing box 11, which conveys the dough to the discharge port 2. Specifically, the conveying mechanism 10 can be a conveyor belt, which can be integrated with the dough conveying mechanism within the proofing box 11. After reaching the discharge port 2, the dough falls into the discharge trough 3 through the discharge port 2 and then slides downwards along the discharge trough 3.

[0022] An oil storage container 4 is provided above the discharge port 2, and an oil supply mechanism for supplying oil to the discharge port 2 is provided at the bottom of the oil storage container 4.

[0023] The oil storage container 4 contains a suitable amount of edible oil, which is liquid at room temperature. Specifically, the oil storage container 4 can be a circular tank with a removable top cover. As the edible oil is consumed, the top cover can be opened to replenish the oil storage container 4. The oil supply mechanism delivers the edible oil from the oil storage container 4 to the discharge port 2. The edible oil falls through the discharge port 2 into the discharge trough 3 and adheres to the inner wall of the discharge trough 3, forming an oil film. When the dough enters the discharge trough 3, the oil film acts as a barrier between the dough and the discharge trough 3, preventing the dough from sticking to it. Furthermore, the oil film reduces sliding friction, allowing the dough to slide downwards to the designated position more quickly, ensuring smooth discharge.

[0024] The discharge trough 3 can be directly located below the discharge port 2. After the dough leaves the conveying mechanism 10, it falls straight down into the discharge trough 3. The dough impacts the discharge trough 3, causing significant deformation and adhesion. Therefore, in this invention, the upper end of the discharge trough 3 is connected to the discharge port 2 via a connecting cylinder 5. The cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting cylinder 5 decreases from top to bottom. The inner cavity of the connecting cylinder 5 can be circular or rectangular. The sidewall of the connecting cylinder 5 is inclined. After leaving the conveying mechanism 10, the dough first falls onto the sidewall of the connecting cylinder 5 and then slides down along the sidewall into the discharge trough 3, preventing strong impact and thus avoiding deformation or adhesion.

[0025] The oil supply mechanism can be components such as valves. To ensure the edible oil is more dispersed as it enters the discharge trough 3, the oil supply mechanism preferably includes an oil pump 6 and an oil drain ring pipe 7. The oil drain ring pipe 7 is circular and horizontally positioned above the connecting cylinder 5. Multiple oil drain holes are provided at the bottom of the oil drain ring pipe 7. The diameter of the oil drain ring pipe 7 is smaller than the size of the upper end of the connecting cylinder 5, allowing the edible oil dripping from the drain holes to reach the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 5. The inlet of the oil pump 6 is connected to the oil storage container 4, and the outlet of the oil pump 6 is connected to the oil drain ring pipe 7.

[0026] Oil pump 6 operates periodically, each time pumping edible oil from oil storage container 4 to oil drain ring pipe 7. The oil in oil drain ring pipe 7 then flows through drain holes into connecting cylinder 5, where it slides down the inner wall into discharge trough 3. Because the drain holes are relatively dispersed, the edible oil falls evenly into connecting cylinder 5. The oil that slides to the bottom of connecting cylinder 5 eventually settles at the bottom of discharge trough 3, resulting in a more even distribution of oil and improving the dough's non-stick properties.

[0027] Oil pump 6 is an injection pump or a peristaltic pump, which can realize the quantitative delivery of liquid materials and ensure that the amount of oil delivered to the oil drain ring pipe 7 is consistent each time.

[0028] To ensure a more even distribution of edible oil into the drain ring pipe 7, the outlet of the oil pump 6 is connected to a vertical oil delivery pipe 8. The oil delivery pipe 8 is coaxial with the drain ring pipe 7, and its lower end is connected to multiple inclined distribution pipes 9. There can be three, four, or other distribution pipes 9, evenly distributed around the oil delivery pipe 8. The lower end of each distribution pipe 9 is connected to the drain ring pipe 7. The oil pump 6 first delivers the edible oil to the vertical oil delivery pipe 8. When the oil in the oil delivery pipe 8 reaches its lower end, it can enter each distribution pipe 9 relatively evenly, and then flow along the distribution pipes 9 into the drain ring pipe 7. This facilitates the even distribution of edible oil throughout the drain ring pipe 7.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
