[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rice noodle processing equipment, specifically a rice noodle processing machine that integrates hot and cold double pots. Background Technology

[0002] Rice noodles are a specialty snack in southern China. People in Jiangxi usually just call them noodles. Rice noodles are made from rice and are processed into strips or strands through soaking, steaming, and pressing. In the process of making rice noodles, workers need to use a strainer to scoop the rice noodles back and forth between cold and hot water. This method has the following disadvantages in actual operation.

[0003] First, the labor intensity is high, the speed is slow, and there are certain safety concerns.

[0004] Secondly, the cooling and cooking time of rice noodles is easily affected by subjective factors, which affects the taste and quality of the rice noodles;

[0005] Finally, cooking the rice noodles also requires skilled workers, making the process highly dependent on them.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "length," "width," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. The various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 6 The present invention preferably provides the following technical solution: a rice noodle processing machine integrating hot and cold pots, comprising: a base 111, an extruder 127, a cold pot structure, and a hot pot structure arranged sequentially on the base 111, which are respectively used for the extrusion molding, cooling, and cooking processes of rice noodles; it also includes a swing arm mechanism arranged on the base 111, and a mesh basket structure for holding rice noodles is mounted on the swing arm mechanism, wherein, under the action of the swing arm mechanism, the mesh basket structure can alternate inside the cold pot structure and the hot pot structure to complete the cold and hot processing of rice noodles.

[0027] The design concept of this application is to integrate three key and continuous processes in rice noodle processing (extrusion molding, cooling, and cooking) into one device, and to achieve automatic material flow through a movable basket structure, specifically as follows: Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 6, the extruder 127 at the starting end (which is an existing mature technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail) is responsible for extruding the rice noodle raw materials (such as rice paste and rice noodle dough) from the mold into thin rice noodle strips by applying pressure. The cold pot structure in the middle section is used to quickly cool and shape the rice noodles that have just come out of the extruder 127 and are in a high-temperature softened state, to prevent them from sticking together and to give them a chewy texture. The hot pot structure at the end is used to cook (or blanch) the shaped rice noodles to ensure that the rice noodles are fully cooked and reach the final taste and temperature for consumption.

[0028] It is known that in the traditional rice noodle processing process, workers not only need to use a strainer to scoop rice noodles back and forth between cold and hot water pots, which is labor-intensive and slow, but the cooling and cooking time of rice noodles is also easily affected by subjective factors. Therefore, this application assembles a basket structure for holding rice noodles onto a swing arm mechanism. During the up-down and left-right movement of the swing arm mechanism, the basket structure can automatically switch between the cold pot and hot pot structures, realizing "one-click" continuous production from raw materials to finished products. The above structure has the following three advantages:

[0029] First, it improves work efficiency: By tightly integrating the three processes, the waiting and transfer time of rice noodles between different processes is significantly reduced, realizing a near-continuous assembly line operation and significantly increasing the output per unit time.

[0030] The second process parameter is controllable: cooling time and cooking time can be precisely controlled by the swing rhythm of the swing arm through the program, ensuring that the hot and cold processing time of each batch of rice noodles is consistent, so as to ensure the stability and uniformity of product quality.

[0031] Thirdly, it ensures safe operation: it avoids the risk of workers being scalded by hot water or steam and complies with the safety standards of modern food machinery.

[0032] Fourth, it reduces reliance on skilled workers and labor costs: Operators only need to be responsible for feeding materials, monitoring equipment operation, and finally collecting materials. They do not need to master the skilled skills of "watching the heat" and "scooping noodles based on experience" in traditional rice noodle processing. The highly efficient automated operation allows one worker to supervise multiple production lines or multiple pieces of equipment at the same time, directly reducing the labor cost per unit output.

[0033] Furthermore, the cold pot structure includes a cold pot body 112 disposed on the machine base 111 and located directly below the extruder 127; a first water inlet faucet 1121 mounted to the front of the machine base 111 and facing the cold pot body 112; and a first drain pipe 1122 disposed at the bottom of the cold pot body 112, with a first drain valve disposed between the first drain pipe 1122 and the cold pot body 112; further, the hot pot structure includes a hot pot body 113 disposed on the machine base 111; a second water inlet faucet 1131 disposed at the front of the machine base 111 with its outlet aligned with the hot pot body 113; and a second drain pipe 1132 disposed at the bottom of the hot pot body 113 with a second drain valve disposed therebetween.

[0034] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the cold pot body 112 of the cold pot structure and the hot pot body 113 of the hot pot structure are arranged sequentially on the top of the base 111 and are respectively introduced into the water through the first water inlet 1121 and the second water inlet 1131, and are respectively discharged through the first drain pipe 1122 and the second drain pipe 1132, thereby realizing the switching between cold and hot water and ensuring the cooling and cooking effect.

[0035] It is worth noting that the internal temperatures of the cold pot body 112 and the hot pot body 113 can be displayed in real time on the external display of the device, thereby ensuring the cooling and cooking effects. This is an existing mature technology and is not within the scope of protection of this application, so it will not be explained in detail.

[0036] Furthermore, the swing arm mechanism includes a horizontal slide rail 114 fixed to the rear side of the top of the base 111, a vertical block 115 slidably mounted therein, and a sliding sleeve 116 slidably mounted thereto; and a vertical plate 117 fixed to the front side of the sliding sleeve 116 for assembling the basket structure; it also includes a drive assembly mounted on the base 111 for driving the vertical plate 117 to move up, down, left, and right; further, the drive assembly includes a mounting base 123 mounted on the rear side of the base 111, a mounting plate 124 fixed on the mounting base 123; and a drive motor 125 mounted on the back side of the mounting plate 124, the output shaft of the drive motor 125 passing through a through hole in the mounting plate 124 and a transmission rod 126 fixed forward, and the end of the transmission rod 126 away from the drive motor 125 being rotatably mounted to the back side of the sliding sleeve 116 through a rotating shaft at its end.

[0037] like Figure 3 , 5As shown, a sliding sleeve 116 is fitted onto a vertical block 115 inside the horizontal slide rail 114. A vertical plate 117 fixed to the front of the sliding sleeve 116 is used for assembling the basket structure, while a transmission rod 126, rotatably mounted on its rear side via a pivot, is fixed to the drive motor 125. Therefore, when the drive motor 125 is running, the transmission rod 126, which deflects back and forth, can move the vertical block 115 within the horizontal slide rail 114 as follows: Figure 1 , 2 As the vertical block 115 moves left and right, the sliding sleeve 116 moves up and down along with the vertical block 115, thus driving the vertical plate 117 fixed to the sliding sleeve 116 and the basket structure assembled with the vertical plate 117 to move in the up, down, left, and right directions. Specifically, as shown... Figure 3 When the transmission rod 126 deflects counterclockwise, the basket body 122 raised from inside the hot pot 113 can extend into the cold pot 112. When the transmission rod 126 deflects clockwise, the basket body 122 raised from inside the cold pot 112 can extend into the hot pot 113, thereby realizing the alternating operation of cooling and cooking rice noodles.

[0038] Furthermore, the basket structure includes a horizontal plate 118 fixed to the vertical plate 117, on which a rotating component is provided; and a basket body 122 assembled with the horizontal plate 118 via the rotating component, used for holding rice noodles, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the basket body 122 here allows water to flow freely, but can hold rice noodles to achieve the process of holding rice noodles.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] In another embodiment of the present invention, the rotating component includes an assembly block fixed to the surface of the horizontal plate 118, on which a micro motor 119 is provided; and a coupling 120 mounted on the output shaft of the micro motor 119, wherein a connecting rod 121 is fixed to one end of the coupling 120 away from the micro motor 119, and the basket body 122 is mounted on the lower part of the connecting rod 121.

[0041] To accelerate the cooling and cooking process of the rice noodles, the basket body 122 provided in this application can be fixed to the lower part of the connecting rod 121, such as... Figure 3 , 5 As shown, the connecting rod 121 is connected to the output end of the micro motor 119 via the coupling 120, thereby realizing two implementation methods of rice noodle processing;

[0042] In the first implementation, when the micro motor 119 deflects slightly, the rice noodles inside the basket body 122 can be shaken to accelerate the dispersion effect between the rice noodles, thereby accelerating the cooling and cooking process of the rice noodles.

[0043] In the second implementation, when the micro motor 119 deflects significantly, the basket body 122 can be tilted as a whole to allow the rice noodles to be poured out.

[0044] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", "fixation" and other terms should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part. There are various ways to install detachably, such as by using a plug-in and snap-fit ​​method, or by using a bolt connection, etc.

[0045] The above description of the specific embodiments of this utility model is only used to further illustrate this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-essential improvements and adjustments made to this utility model by technical engineers based on the above description of the utility model shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
