Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coffee bean processing technology, specifically to an integrated cooling device for coffee bean processing. Background Technology

[0002] After coffee beans are roasted, their internal chemical changes do not stop. The beans accumulate a lot of energy due to the high temperature of roasting. If left uncontrolled, the residual heat will continue to "cook" the coffee beans, which may lead to flavor loss and negative flavors. The continuous heat can also cause the coffee beans to overdevelop, potentially losing their original terroir characteristics and delicate flavors.

[0003] Currently, most integrated coffee bean processing and cooling equipment only uses fans at the bottom of the tray to blow air upwards for cooling. If coffee beans are piled up in the tray, airflow alone cannot penetrate all the bean layers, which can easily lead to uneven cooling, overheating in the center, and prolonged overall cooling time. In addition, some equipment discharges the cooled coffee beans manually, which affects production continuity and efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an integrated cooling device for coffee bean processing to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an integrated coffee bean processing and cooling device, including a roasting component, a tray is provided on one side of the roasting component, a toothed ring is rotatably connected at the middle position of the bottom end of the tray, a sealing plate is installed on one side of the toothed ring, a rotating shaft is provided through the middle position of the tray, a stirring plate is provided at the top end of the rotating shaft, a plurality of fans are evenly distributed below the tray, and a mesh plate is provided at the bottom of the tray.

[0006] Preferably, the bottom of the tray is provided with a base, the inside of the base is provided with a positioning ring, and both the positioning ring and the circumferential surface of the base are provided with air inlets. The base provides support for the tray so that the tray can be in a preset position. Several fans are fixed in the preset position by the positioning ring. When the fans are running, they blow air onto the tray. A dustproof grille is provided at the air inlet position. When the fans are running, the air inlet generates negative pressure and draws in outside air.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the toothed ring is provided with a support ring, the top of the support ring extends into the interior of the tray, a toothed column is engaged with one side of the support ring, a stepper motor is installed at the bottom of the toothed column, the stepper motor is mounted on the bottom of the tray via a bracket, the toothed ring is mounted on the bottom of the tray via the support ring, the toothed ring can rotate, and when the stepper motor is running, it drives the toothed column to rotate, thereby causing the toothed ring to rotate.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the tray has an opening that matches the sealing plate. The base below the opening has a discharge port. When the coffee beans are being cooled, the sealing plate is located below the opening to seal the opening of the tray, preventing the coffee beans from falling. After the coffee beans have cooled, the sealing plate rotates to open the opening of the tray, and the coffee beans fall from the opening into the discharge port.

[0009] Preferably, a protective sleeve is provided at the middle position inside the base. The protective sleeve protects the toothed ring, toothed column and rotating shaft to prevent the coffee beans from being coated with lubricating oil when they fall, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the coffee beans.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom end of the mesh plate is provided with an opening, the top two sides of the sealing plate are fitted with the edge of the bottom opening of the mesh plate, one end of the discharge port extends out of the base, the gap between the sealing plate and the tray is small, when the sealing plate seals the opening of the tray, the coffee beans will not get stuck in the gap, when the sealing plate rotates to open the opening, the coffee beans can fall accurately into the discharge port, making it easy to remove the material.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. This integrated coffee bean processing and cooling equipment uses a toothed ring and a sealing plate to reliably seal during the cooling process, ensuring operational safety. After cooling, the opening and closing of the opening is precisely controlled by a stepper motor drive mechanism, allowing the coffee beans to be automatically and centrally discharged from the outlet. Unloading can be completed without moving or tilting the tray, resulting in a high degree of automation and improved production efficiency.

[0013] 2. This integrated coffee bean processing and cooling equipment uses several fans at the bottom to blow air upwards. The airflow penetrates the mesh plate and, combined with the rotating stirring plate, turns the coffee beans, ensuring that each bean is fully enveloped by the cold air. This avoids uneven cooling and overheating in the center caused by accumulation, shortens the cooling time, and stabilizes the cooling effect. Attached Figure Description

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.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the integrated coffee bean processing and cooling equipment of this embodiment includes a roasting component 1. A tray 2 is provided on one side of the roasting component 1. The roasting component 1 roasts the coffee beans. The discharge structure of the roasting component 1 is located above the tray 2, which can transport the roasted coffee beans into the tray 2. A toothed ring 14 is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom end of the tray 2. A sealing plate 8 is installed on one side of the toothed ring 14. The sealing plate 8 can be driven by the toothed ring 14 to rotate. A rotating shaft 13 is provided through the middle of the tray 2. A drive motor is provided at the bottom of the rotating shaft 13 to make the rotating shaft 13 rotate. A stirring plate 7 is provided at the top of the rotating shaft 13. When the rotating shaft 13 rotates, the stirring plate 7 rotates inside the tray 2. The coffee beans inside tray 2 are stirred to prevent them from piling up and causing some beans to not cool completely. A dust collection bag is installed on the top of tray 2 to collect the silver dust blown away from the surface of the coffee beans. Several fans 10 are evenly spaced below tray 2, with dustproof nets on the top of the fans 10. A mesh plate 6 is installed at the bottom of tray 2. The mesh of the mesh plate 6 has small holes to prevent coffee beans from getting stuck in the mesh. When the fans 10 are running, they blow air upwards, and the airflow passes through the mesh plate 6 to blow air onto the coffee beans inside tray 2, carrying away the heat from the coffee beans. The blowing and cooling time can be set according to the weight of coffee beans roasted by roasting component 1 to ensure that the cooling process can reduce the temperature of the coffee beans to the preset temperature.

[0023] Specifically, a base 3 is provided at the bottom of the tray 2, and a positioning ring 11 is provided inside the base 3. Air inlets 4 are provided on the circumferential surfaces of both the positioning ring 11 and the base 3. The base 3 provides support for the tray 2, so that the tray 2 can be in a preset position. Several fans 10 are fixed in the preset position by the positioning ring 11. When the fans 10 are running, they will blow air onto the tray 2. A dustproof grille is provided at the air inlet 4. When the fans 10 are running, the air inlet 4 generates negative pressure, drawing in outside air.

[0024] Furthermore, a support ring 16 is provided at the top of the toothed ring 14, and the top of the support ring 16 extends into the interior of the tray 2. A toothed column 15 is meshed with one side of the support ring 16, and a stepper motor 12 is installed at the bottom of the toothed column 15. The stepper motor 12 is installed at the bottom of the tray 2 via a bracket. The toothed ring 14 is installed at the bottom of the tray 2 via the support ring 16. The toothed ring 14 can rotate. When the stepper motor 12 is running, it will drive the toothed column 15 to rotate, thereby causing the toothed ring 14 to rotate.

[0025] Furthermore, the bottom of the tray 2 has an opening that matches the sealing plate 8. The base 3 below the opening has a discharge port 5. When the coffee beans are being cooled, the sealing plate 8 is located below the opening and seals the opening of the tray 2 so that the coffee beans will not fall. When the coffee beans have cooled, the sealing plate 8 rotates to open the opening of the tray 2, and the coffee beans fall from the opening into the discharge port 5.

[0026] Furthermore, a protective sleeve 9 is provided in the middle of the base 3. The protective sleeve 9 protects the toothed ring 14, toothed column 15 and rotating shaft 13 to prevent the coffee beans from adhering to lubricating oil when they fall, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the coffee beans.

[0027] Furthermore, the bottom of the screen plate 6 is provided with an opening, and the top two edges of the sealing plate 8 are fitted with the bottom opening edge of the screen plate 6. One end of the discharge port 5 extends out of the base 3. The height difference between the sealing plate 8 and the screen plate 6 is small, and the gap between the copper wire sealing plate 8 and the tray 2 is small. When the sealing plate 8 seals the opening of the tray 2, the coffee beans will not get stuck in the gap. When the sealing plate 8 rotates to the bottom of the screen plate 6 and opens the opening, the coffee beans can fall accurately into the discharge port 5, making it easy to remove the material.

[0028] The usage method of this embodiment is as follows: When using the integrated coffee bean processing and cooling equipment, the coffee beans are roasted in the roasting component 1. The discharge structure of the roasting component 1 is activated, and the hot coffee beans are evenly conveyed into the interior of the tray 2 through the outlet located above the tray 2. At this time, the sealing plate 8 is in the closed position under the drive of the toothed ring 14, blocking the opening at the bottom of the tray 2 to ensure that the coffee beans do not fall. The drive motor at the bottom of the rotating shaft 13 is activated, driving the rotating shaft 13 to rotate, thereby causing the stirring plate 7 at the top to continuously turn over the coffee beans in the tray 2, preventing them from piling up and ensuring that each bean is fully exposed to the airflow. Multiple fans 10 evenly distributed below the tray 2 are activated, and the fans 10 blow air upwards. The airflow passes through the mesh plate 6 at the bottom of the tray 2 and evenly penetrates the coffee bean layer. The upward airflow not only quickly removes the heat from the coffee beans, but also achieves efficient cooling. It also blows up the lighter silver skin produced during the roasting process, separating it from the beans. Outside air is drawn in through the air inlet 4 on the base 3 and the positioning ring 11. The dustproof grille of the air inlet 4 effectively prevents debris from entering the equipment. When the coffee beans cool to the target temperature (which can be detected by the temperature detection component), the fan 10 and the stirring plate 7 are stopped, and the stepper motor 12 is started to drive the gear column 15 to rotate, thereby driving the gear ring 14 that meshes with it to rotate. The rotation of the gear ring 14 will drive the sealing plate 8 installed on one side to rotate synchronously, so that the sealing plate 8 no longer blocks the opening at the bottom of the tray 2. The cooled coffee beans in the tray 2 fall precisely into the discharge port 5 below through the opening under the action of gravity, completing the automatic unloading. After the discharge is completed, the stepper motor 12 is controlled to reverse again to reset the sealing plate 8 to the closed position, preparing for the cooling of the next batch of coffee beans.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the 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 this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
