Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food flavor processing, and in particular to a pellet forming device for food flavor processing. Background Technology

[0002] As a key additive in the modern food industry, the physical form of edible flavorings has a crucial impact on the product's flowability, stability, solubility, and flavor release characteristics. Among them, regular and uniform particle morphology is widely used in solid beverages, seasonings, and convenience foods due to its advantages of less dust, better flowability, and ease of measurement. Rotary granulation is one of the commonly used techniques for preparing such particles. Its basic principle is to force the wet-mixed or bonded flavoring materials through a sieve with a specific aperture under extrusion, thereby cutting and shaping them into columnar or spherical particles.

[0003] However, in actual production, existing rotary pelleting devices are prone to material buildup and blockage during the process of falling from the screen to the inclined guide plate. This causes material to adhere to the surface of the guide plate and the connecting angle at the top of the guide plate, affecting the normal falling of subsequent pellets. This requires frequent cleaning, which is quite troublesome. Furthermore, it may cause the formed pellets to deform and clump due to prolonged retention, affecting the quality of the final product. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a granulation device for processing edible flavorings, which aims to solve the problem in the prior art that "flavoring granules from a rotary granulation device tend to adhere to the surface of the guide plate and the connecting angle at the top of the guide plate during the process of falling from the screen to the inclined guide plate, resulting in material accumulation and blockage, requiring frequent cleaning".

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a granulation device for processing edible flavorings, comprising a machine body, a material cylinder arranged on the left side of the machine body, a screen arranged on the upper part of the material cylinder, an inclined guide plate arranged on the outer wall of the material cylinder below the screen, a vibration component arranged at the bottom of the guide plate, the vibration component comprising a sliding sleeve and a collar, the collar being fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the screen, a groove being formed on the outer wall of the material cylinder, the sliding sleeve being slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove, the top of the sliding sleeve being slidably connected to the inner wall of the collar, the sliding sleeve being fixedly connected to the top middle part of the guide plate, a fixing plate being fixedly connected to the bottom end of the material cylinder, a driving component being arranged at the top of the fixing plate, and an adjustment component being arranged on the left side of the guide plate.

[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution: The drive assembly includes a motor, which is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate near the left side of the material cylinder. An extrusion member is fixedly connected to the top of the output shaft of the motor. The extrusion member is located below the guide plate and pushes the guide plate to vibrate up and down when it rotates.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: The extrusion component includes a vertical rod, a horizontal rod, and two sets of extrusion balls. The vertical rod is fixedly connected to the top of the motor's output shaft, the horizontal rod is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical rod, and the two sets of extrusion balls are respectively fixedly connected to the two ends of the horizontal rod.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: The adjustment assembly includes an extension plate, and a positioning groove is provided on the left side of the guide plate. The extension plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the positioning groove.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: The extrusion part is T-shaped.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: The bottom end of the extension plate is fixedly connected to three sets of evenly distributed sliders, which are slidably connected to the bottom end of the guide plate.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: A screw is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the slider located in the middle. A threaded sleeve is threaded onto the outer wall of the screw, and a rubber gasket is fixedly connected to the top end of the threaded sleeve.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: The extension plate, slider, screw, and screw sleeve are all arranged at the same angle as the guide plate.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this utility model, the extruder is driven to rotate by a motor. When the extrusion ball on the extruder rotates to the left and right sides, it pushes the guide plate upward. When it rotates to the front and rear sides, the pushing is released, causing the guide plate to vibrate continuously up and down. This shakes off the edible flavoring particles attached to the guide plate in time, avoiding particle accumulation and eliminating the need for frequent cleaning. This improves production efficiency and ensures the continuity and stability of the production process.

[0014] 2. In this utility model, the effective length of the guide plate is changed by pulling the extension plate, so that the feeding position can be flexibly adjusted according to the position of the subsequent collection equipment or different production needs. After the extension plate is adjusted, the rotating screw sleeve drives the rubber gasket to press against the lower surface of the guide plate. The friction increased by the rubber material stabilizes and limits the extension plate, which improves the versatility and adaptability of the device and reduces the equipment cost and production adjustment difficulty for enterprises.

[0017] 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.

[0018] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4This utility model provides an embodiment of a granulation device for processing edible flavorings, comprising a body 1, which is the main body of a rotary granulator. A feeding cylinder 42 is provided on the left side of the body 1. A screen 4 is provided at the upper part of the feeding cylinder 42 to press the edible flavorings through the holes of a screen 4 to process them into granules. An inclined guide plate 41 is provided on the outer wall of the feeding cylinder 42 below the screen 4 to guide the processed edible flavorings downwards. A vibration component 2 is provided at the bottom of the guide plate 41 to reduce the accumulation of processed edible flavoring granules. The vibration component 2 includes a sliding sleeve 22 that cooperates with the guide plate 41 to guide the downward flow of the edible flavoring granules, and a collar 21 that wraps around the sliding sleeve 22 to guide the edible flavoring granules downwards. The collar 21 is fixed... The bottom outer wall of the screen 4 is fixedly connected to the material cylinder 42. The outer wall of the material cylinder 42 is provided with a groove 26 to provide sliding space for the sliding sleeve 22. The sliding sleeve 22 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove 26. The enclosed structure can prevent falling fragrance particles from entering the gap between the sliding sleeve 22 and the groove 26, avoiding vibration failure caused by particle jamming, and protecting the smooth operation of the sliding parts. The top of the sliding sleeve 22 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the collar 21. The sliding sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the middle part of the guide plate 41. The bottom end of the material cylinder 42 is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 24 that supports the motor 23. The top of the fixing plate 24 is provided with a drive assembly for driving the extruder 25 to rotate. The left side of the guide plate 41 is provided with an adjustment assembly 3 for extending the extension plate 31 to change the feeding position and prevent accumulation.

[0019] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The drive assembly includes a motor 23 that drives the extruder 25 to rotate. The motor 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 24 near the left side of the material cylinder 42. The top of the output shaft of the motor 23 is fixedly connected to the extruder 25, which is used to rotate the extrusion guide plate 41 and make it vibrate up and down. The extruder 25 is located below the guide plate 41 and pushes the guide plate 41 to vibrate up and down when it rotates. The extruder 25 includes a vertical rod, a horizontal rod, and two sets of extrusion balls. The vertical rod is fixedly connected to the top of the output shaft of the motor 23, the horizontal rod is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical rod, and the two sets of extrusion balls are respectively fixedly connected to the horizontal rod. At both ends, the extrusion member 25 is T-shaped. By setting the extrusion member 25 into a T-shape, when the ball rotates to the left and right sides, the ball on the left side can squeeze the guide plate 41 to move upward. When the ball rotates to the front and rear sides, it releases the pressure on the guide plate 41 and moves it downward to reset. Therefore, the rotation of the ball can realize the cyclic action of pushing and falling, so that the guide plate 41 will continuously shake up and down. This can prevent the granules of processed food flavoring from adhering to or accumulating on the guide plate 41 and at the upper angle between the guide plate 41 and the sliding sleeve 22.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The adjusting component 3 includes an outwardly extending plate 31. The position of the extending plate 31 can be adjusted according to actual needs, thereby changing the effective length of the guide plate 41 to meet the material feeding requirements under different production conditions and improve the adaptability of the device. A positioning groove 35 is provided on the left side of the guide plate 41 to provide space for the extension plate 31 to move. The extension plate 31 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the positioning groove 35. Three sets of evenly distributed sliders 36 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the extending plate 31. The sliders 36 allow the extending plate 31 to slide stably. The sliders 36 pass through and are slidably connected to the bottom end of the guide plate 41. The bottom end of the middle slider 36 is fixedly connected to... A screw 32 is connected to the screw sleeve 33 to drive the rubber gasket 34 to move upward and press it against the lower surface of the guide plate 41, thereby limiting the extension plate 31. The outer wall of the screw 32 is threaded with a screw sleeve 33 that engages with the screw 32 to drive the rubber gasket 34 to move and limit the extension plate 31. The top of the screw sleeve 33 is fixedly connected with a rubber gasket 34 made of rubber to increase the friction with the lower surface of the guide plate 41 and thus limit it. The extension plate 31, slider 36, screw 32, and screw sleeve 33 are all set in the same inclined position as the guide plate 41. The same inclined position can stably limit the guide plate 41 and stably guide the material feeding.

[0021] Working Principle: In operation, the raw material for edible flavoring is first poured into the top of the cylinder 42. The cylinder 42 provides the feeding and processing chamber for the raw material. After processing within the cylinder 42, the raw material is extruded through the holes of the screen 4 at the top of the cylinder 42, initially processed into flavoring granules that meet the particle size requirements. The processed granules naturally fall onto the guide plate 41, which guides the granules downwards. Simultaneously, to prevent granule accumulation, the motor 23 is started. After starting, the motor 23 drives the T-shaped extruder 25 at the top of its output shaft to rotate. The vertical rod of the extruder 25 rotates with the output shaft of the motor 23, thereby driving the horizontal rod and the extrusion balls at both ends to perform circular motion. When the extrusion balls rotate to the left and right sides, the left extrusion ball pushes the guide plate 41 upwards. When the extrusion balls rotate to the front and rear sides, the pushing is released, and the guide plate 41 falls back under gravity. This cyclical motion of pushing and falling back ensures... The guide plate 41 continuously vibrates up and down to prevent the processed flavoring particles from adhering to and accumulating on it. Simultaneously, depending on the location of the subsequent collection equipment or material feeding requirements, the extension plate 31 can slide along the positioning groove 35 on the left side of the guide plate 41. Three sets of sliders 36 at the bottom of the extension plate 31 pass through the bottom of the guide plate 41 to assist in stable sliding. After the extension plate 31 is adjusted to the target position, the screw sleeve 33 on the outer wall of the screw 32 at the bottom of the middle slider 36 is rotated. The screw sleeve 33 moves upward in a threaded engagement with the screw 32, causing the rubber gasket 34 at the top to press against the lower surface of the guide plate 41. The rubber material increases friction, limiting the extension plate 31. The extension plate 31, sliders 36, screw 32, and screw sleeve 33 all maintain the same inclination as the guide plate 41, ensuring smooth sliding of the particles along the guide plate. Ultimately, this achieves stable forming of flavoring particles, prevents accumulation during conveying, and provides suitable material feeding.

[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
