Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural processing technology, specifically to a corn flaking and impregnation treatment component. Background Technology
[0002] The processing flow of steam-pressed corn is as follows: raw materials, impurity removal, preparation, steam heating, pressing, drying, cooling, packaging, and finished product storage.
[0003] The specific steps are as follows: Select high-quality corn as raw material to ensure product quality and nutritional value; soak the corn in hot water to allow it to fully absorb water and expand, which is beneficial for subsequent processing; steam the soaked corn to soften the kernels, which is beneficial for compression and shaping; compress the softened corn kernels under high pressure to make corn flakes; cool and dry the compressed corn flakes to remove excess moisture and improve shelf life; package the finished corn flakes and store them in a dry, cool place to maintain their quality and palatability.
[0004] During the soaking process, corn kernels are lifted and transported to the soaking chamber by an elevator, where they are soaked. However, existing technologies still have some shortcomings in soaking corn kernels:
[0005] 1. When corn kernels are transported into the soaking chamber, they accumulate inside. However, the existing soaking chamber equipment has a simple structure and is usually inconvenient to stir the corn kernels. As a result, the accumulated corn kernels cannot fully absorb water, which in turn affects the soaking effect of the corn kernels.
[0006] 2. As the soaking of corn kernels ends, the existing soaking chamber is inconvenient for separating and discharging corn kernels and soaking water. During the discharge process, corn kernels and soaking water are discharged outwards at the same time, which makes the collection of soaked corn kernels quite troublesome. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0028] 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.
[0029] Example: Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a corn flaking and soaking treatment assembly, including a soaking chamber 1. A feed hopper 11 is fixedly installed at the open end of the soaking chamber 1. A partition plate 13 is detachably installed inside the feed hopper 11 via bolts. One side of the partition plate 13 forms a feeding cavity 14 between itself and the side wall of the feed hopper 11. During the soaking of corn kernels, an elevator conveys the corn kernels to the top of the feed hopper 11. The corn kernels enter the soaking chamber 1 through the feeding cavity 14, guiding the feeding process. A base 15 is fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the soaking chamber 1. A conical cavity 16 is provided on the upper surface of the base 15. A discharge trough 17 is provided at the bottom of the conical cavity 16. A discharge channel 1 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the soaking chamber 1. 2. One end of the discharge channel 12 is vertically aligned with the discharge trough 17. By setting the conical cavity 16, the discharge trough 17 and the discharge channel 12, the corn kernels and soaking water in the soaking chamber 1 can be discharged outward through the conical cavity 16, the discharge trough 17 and the discharge channel 12. The soaking chamber 1 is equipped with a stirring mechanism 2. By setting the stirring mechanism 2, the stirring mechanism 2 will stir the corn kernels in the soaking chamber 1 at regular intervals to improve the soaking effect of the corn kernels. The base 15 and the soaking chamber 1 are equipped with a discharge assembly 3. By setting the discharge assembly 3, the discharge assembly 3 can classify and discharge the soaked corn kernels and soaking water, improve the convenience of corn kernel discharge operation, and facilitate the separate collection of corn kernels.
[0030] The stirring mechanism 2 includes a stirring shaft 21, which is disposed in the impregnation chamber 1 and extends into the conical cavity 16. Several stirring blades 22 are fixedly disposed on the stirring shaft 21, and several scraper plates 23 are fixedly disposed at one end of the stirring shaft 21. The scraper plates 23 are located in the conical cavity 16. By setting the stirring shaft 21, stirring blades 22 and scraper plates 23, when the stirring shaft 21 rotates, the stirring shaft 21 can cause the stirring blades 22 and scraper plates 23 to rotate. The stirring blades 22 can stir the corn kernels in the impregnation chamber 1, and the scraper plates 23 can stir the corn kernels in the conical cavity 16, while preventing the corn kernels from adhering to the side wall of the conical cavity 16.
[0031] The immersion chamber 1 is detachably equipped with a fixed frame 24. The stirring shaft 21 passes through the fixed frame 24. The fixed frame 24 is fixedly equipped with an equipment sleeve 25. The equipment sleeve 25 is fixedly equipped with a servo motor 26. The drive output end of the servo motor 26 is fixedly connected to the other end of the stirring shaft 21. By turning on the servo motor 26, the drive shaft of the servo motor 26 can make the stirring shaft 21 rotate.
[0032] Two U-shaped fixing frames 27 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the impregnation chamber 1. Fixing blocks 28 are fixedly installed at both ends of the fixing frame 24. The fixing blocks 28 and the bottom wall of the U-shaped fixing frames 27 are in movable contact. An extension screw 29 is threadedly installed between the bottom wall of the U-shaped fixing frame 27 and the fixing blocks 28. A knob 291 is fixedly installed at one end of the extension screw 29. By setting the U-shaped fixing frames 27 and the extension screw 29, when the extension screw 29 is disengaged from the fixing blocks 28 and the U-shaped fixing frames 27, the equipment sleeve 25 is pulled upward, which can disengage the fixing frame 24, fixing blocks 28, equipment sleeve 25, servo motor 26, stirring shaft 21, stirring blade 22 and scraper 23 from the impregnation chamber 1, realizing overall disassembly and facilitating maintenance (before disassembly, the partition plate 13 in the feed hopper 11 should be discharged first).
[0033] The discharge assembly 3 includes a blocking plate 31 and a fixing frame 32. The blocking plate 31 is disposed between the discharge trough 17 and the discharge channel 12. One side of the fixing frame 32 is fixedly connected to one side of the blocking plate 31. A filter screen 33 is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the fixing frame 32. A sliding cavity 34 is provided on the lower surface of the base 15. The blocking plate 31 and the fixing frame 32 are slidably disposed in the sliding cavity 34. By setting the blocking plate 31, the fixing frame 32, and the filter screen 33, when the blocking plate 31 is located below the discharge trough 17, The bottom of the conical cavity 16 can be sealed, preventing the corn kernels and soaking water from draining out. When the fixed frame 32 and the filter screen 33 are located below the discharge trough 17, the soaking water in the soaking chamber 1 can be discharged outward through the discharge trough 17, the filter screen 33 and the discharge channel 12, while the corn kernels remain in the soaking chamber 1. When the sealing plate 31, the fixed frame 32 and the filter screen 33 are all offset from the discharge trough 17, the corn kernels in the soaking chamber 1 can be discharged outward through the discharge trough 17 and the discharge channel 12.
[0034] A sealing gasket 311 is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the sealing plate 31. The upper surface of the sealing gasket 311 is in movable contact with the bottom of the discharge trough 17. A sealing ring 321 is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the fixing frame 32. By providing the sealing gasket 311 and the sealing ring 321, when the sealing plate 31 is vertically aligned with the discharge trough 17, the sealing gasket 311 can improve the sealing performance between the sealing plate 31 and the discharge trough 17, and the sealing ring 321 can improve the sealing performance between the fixing frame 32 and the filter screen 33 and the discharge trough 17.
[0035] A fixed plate 35 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the impregnation chamber 1. A cylinder 36 is fixedly installed on the fixed plate 35. A connecting rod 37 is fixedly installed on the piston end of the cylinder 36. One end of the connecting rod 37 is fixedly connected to the other side of the sealing plate 31. By activating the cylinder 36 and the connecting rod 37, when the piston end of the cylinder 36 extends and retracts, the sealing plate 31, the fixed frame 32 and the filter screen 33 can be moved horizontally in the sliding cavity 34 through the connecting rod 37, so that the sealing plate 31, the fixed frame 32 and the filter screen 33 are vertically aligned with or staggered from the discharge chute 17.
[0036] Working principle: When corn kernels need to be soaked, the corn kernels are first lifted and transported by the elevator. The lifted and transported corn kernels enter the soaking chamber 1 through the feed chamber 14. At the same time, a certain amount of soaking water is added to the soaking chamber 1, and the corn kernels are soaked in the soaking chamber 1.
[0037] During the soaking process, the operator starts the servo motor 26 at regular intervals. The drive shaft of the servo motor 26 causes the stirring shaft 21 to rotate, and the stirring shaft 21 causes the stirring blades 22 and the scraper 23 to rotate. The stirring blades 22 stir the corn kernels in the soaking chamber 1, and the scraper 23 stirs the corn kernels in the conical cavity 16, so that the corn kernels can fully absorb water until they soften. This avoids the corn kernels from accumulating for a long time, which would result in insufficient water absorption and thus improves the soaking effect of the corn kernels.
[0038] When the corn kernels are soaked, the operator starts the cylinder 36. The piston end of the cylinder 36 retracts, and the cylinder 36 causes the sealing plate 31, the fixing frame 32 and the filter screen 33 to slide horizontally in the sliding cavity 34 through the connecting rod 37. When the fixing frame 32 and the filter screen 33 are vertically aligned with the discharge chute 17, the soaking water in the soaking chamber 1 is discharged outward through the discharge chute 17, the filter screen 33 and the discharge channel 12.
[0039] After the soaking water in the soaking chamber 1 is completely drained, the fixed frame 32, filter screen 33 and sealing plate 31 are misaligned with the discharge trough 17 by the cylinder 36 and connecting rod 37. The corn kernels in the soaking chamber 1 are discharged outward through the discharge trough 17 and discharge channel 12, thus facilitating the classified discharge of corn kernels and soaking water, and making it easier to collect the soaked corn kernels in a unified manner.

[0041] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
