[0002] Chocolate liquor grinding and mixing machines belong to the field of food processing equipment. They are mainly used to finely grind and uniformly mix raw materials such as cocoa liquor, powdered sugar, milk powder, and cocoa butter to obtain a chocolate liquor with a smooth texture and stable taste. This type of equipment typically includes a feeding system, a grinding system, a mixing system, and a discharging system.

[0003] Existing chocolate syrup processing equipment mostly adopts a decentralized structure, where the grinder and mixing tank are separate units. The ground syrup needs to be pumped sequentially into different equipment to complete the fine grinding and mixing processes. In this decentralized structure, the equipment is connected by pipelines, the grinding and mixing processes operate independently, and the temperature control system and transmission system are also separate modules.

[0004] Because the above structure is a multi-unit, separate arrangement, temperature fluctuations and component stratification are prone to occur when the slurry is transported between different units, affecting product uniformity. Multiple pipeline connections increase material residue and cleaning difficulty. Furthermore, it occupies a large area, consumes high energy, and is inconvenient to maintain. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a chocolate slurry fine grinding and mixing machine with high structural integration, continuous grinding and mixing processes, and convenient temperature control and cleaning.

[0021] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a chocolate syrup fine grinding and mixing machine, including a stirring mechanism 100, and a grinding mechanism 200 is provided above the stirring mechanism 100.

[0023] The stirring mechanism 100 includes a stirring tank 103, with a feeding port 109 at its upper end for adding raw materials such as cocoa liquor, sugar powder, and milk powder before mixing, facilitating continuous processing. A support leg 101 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the outer wall of the stirring tank 103, and a caster wheel 102 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support leg 101, allowing for flexible movement of the device and convenient adjustment of the production line layout. A transition plate 110 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of the stirring tank 103, and a pair of support arms 111 are fixedly connected to the transition plate 110 to support the grinding mechanism 200, forming a stable spatial connection between it and the stirring mechanism 100. A support plate 112 is fixedly connected to the support arms 111, and a first motor 105 is fixedly connected to the support plate 112. The output shaft of the first motor 105 is fixedly connected to a first rotating shaft 106. The first rotating shaft 106 passes through a sealing cover 104 located at the upper opening of the mixing tank 103. The sealing cover 104 is bolted to the opening of the mixing tank 103. This sealing connection prevents the slurry from splashing or drawing in external impurities during mixing, improving hygiene and safety. A limiting ring 107 is fixedly connected above the sealing cover 104. The limiting ring 107 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 106 to limit the vertical movement of the shaft and maintain mixing stability. A stirring blade 108 is provided on a section of the first rotating shaft 106 inside the mixing tank 103. The stirring blade 108 and the tank wall of the mixing tank 103 form a shearing zone and a circulation zone, ensuring thorough mixing of the materials within the tank. A discharge port 113 is provided on the bottom side wall of the mixing tank 103. A regulating valve 114 is provided on the discharge port 113. The regulating valve 114 is used to control the slurry discharge flow rate or close the discharge, facilitating batch switching. The bottom of the mixing tank 103 is configured with an inclined structure that slopes toward the discharge port 113. This structure facilitates the complete discharge of materials under gravity, reducing residue.

[0024] The grinding mechanism 200 includes a grinding chamber 204, which is a cylindrical structure with a feed inlet 203 fixedly connected to its upper end. The slurry raw material enters the grinding chamber 204 through the feed inlet 203 and can then undergo fine grinding, avoiding intermediate conveying steps. A second rotating shaft 207 is installed inside the grinding chamber 204, and a grinding roller 208 is fitted onto the second rotating shaft 207. The second rotating shaft 207 is driven to rotate by a second motor 202, causing the grinding roller 208 to roll and shear against the inner wall of the grinding chamber 204, achieving fine grinding and refining of the material. Both ends of the second rotating shaft 207 extend out of the grinding chamber 204. One end is fixedly connected to a bearing 206, and the other end is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 202. The bearing 206 provides support and shock absorption, ensuring smooth operation of the second rotating shaft 207 and extending its service life. The bearing 206 with a mounting seat is fixedly connected to the support arm 111. A bracket 201 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support arm 111. The second motor 202 is fixedly connected to the bracket 201, forming a stable power transmission support structure to prevent the grinding accuracy from decreasing due to vibration. A sieve hole 209 is provided on the lower half of the grinding chamber 204. The sieve hole 209 is used to discharge the slurry that meets the fineness requirements, while larger particles continue to be ground in the grinding chamber 204, ensuring uniform output. A feed inlet 205 is fixedly connected to the lower half of the grinding chamber 204. The other end of the feed inlet 205 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mixing tank 103, realizing direct reflux mixing of the ground slurry and forming a continuous process integrating grinding and mixing.

[0025] Working principle: such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, the chocolate syrup fine grinding and mixing machine provided by this utility model realizes the continuous fine grinding and mixing of chocolate syrup by arranging the grinding mechanism 200 and the stirring mechanism 100 in an up-down manner.

[0026] During operation, the operator adds cocoa liquor, powdered sugar, milk powder, and cocoa butter to the mixing tank 103 through the feeding port 109. The second motor 202 is started, driving the second rotating shaft 207 to rotate. The grinding roller 208 mounted on the second rotating shaft 207 performs rolling and shearing actions within the grinding chamber 204. This structure allows the raw materials to gradually refine under rolling friction, reducing particle size and forming a uniform slurry. When the slurry particles reach the allowable particle size of the sieve holes 209, the slurry is discharged through the sieve holes 209 and flows into the upper part of the mixing tank 103 through the feed inlet 205. This downward flow guiding structure utilizes gravity to transport the slurry, reducing pumping steps, lowering energy consumption, and avoiding temperature fluctuations.

[0027] Driven by the first motor 105, the slurry entering the mixing tank 103 is rotated by the first rotating shaft 106, which drives the stirring blades 108 to circulate within the tank. The rotation of the stirring blades 108 promotes thorough mixing of the slurry both vertically and horizontally, ensuring uniform composition across different batches and improving product stability. The sealing cap 104 and the limiting ring 107 work together to ensure the sealing and stability of the stirring shaft during rotation, preventing slurry splashing and the introduction of impurities.

[0028] After mixing is complete, the operator can control the opening of the discharge port 113 through the regulating valve 114 to discharge the mixed finished slurry. The bottom of the mixing tank 103 adopts an inclined structure towards the discharge port 113, which allows the slurry to be completely discharged under the action of gravity, reducing residue and facilitating cleaning.

[0029] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
