AI Technical Summary
Traditional mixing rollers have a short mixing time for flour and water, making it difficult to mix evenly. The dough is not allowed to rest or knead sufficiently, resulting in insufficient gluten network formation, which affects the elasticity and texture of the dough.
Design a maturation mixing roller that includes a spiral shaft and a door opening and closing mechanism. The spiral shaft has notched blades for repeated mixing and kneading, and the door mechanism ensures airtightness, forming a closed maturation chamber to achieve thorough mixing and resting of the dough.
This process ensures even mixing of flour and water and full formation of gluten, improving the elasticity and texture of the dough and guaranteeing its quality and integrity.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment, and in particular relates to a maturation stirring roller for dough preparation. Background Technology
[0002] In the industrial production of noodles, dough sheets, and other pasta products, kneading and cooking are crucial processes.
[0003] Traditional mixing rollers typically only have simple conveying and mixing functions. After the flour and water are initially mixed, they are directly conveyed to the discharge port and pressed onto the dough rollers to form dough sheets.
[0004] This method has obvious drawbacks: First, the flour and water are mixed for a short time, making it difficult to achieve a uniform consistency; second, the dough does not undergo sufficient resting or kneading to mature, resulting in inadequate gluten network formation. This directly leads to the final pressed dough lacking elasticity, having a poor texture, and potentially being incomplete due to uneven texture. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to propose a maturation mixing roller for dough preparation. It not only achieves uniform mixing of flour and water, but also provides an environment that promotes the full formation and maturation of gluten, thereby fundamentally improving the chewy texture and processing quality of the dough.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a maturation stirring roller for dough preparation, comprising:
[0007] The roller body is supported at both ends by bearing seats; one end of the roller body is provided with a feed port for feeding flour and drinking water; the other end is provided with a discharge port for discharging the cooked dough to the pressing roller;
[0008] A spiral shaft is rotatably disposed inside the roller body and driven by a drive mechanism. The spiral shaft includes a spiral conveying section near the feed inlet for slowly pushing flour mixed with water from the feed inlet into the roller. It also includes a stirring section near the discharge outlet, wherein the blades of the stirring section have notches. The design of these notches allows the material to not only be pushed forward in the stirring section, but also to be repeatedly cut, folded, and kneaded, achieving efficient stirring while avoiding excessive resistance caused by material accumulation.
[0009] The gate opening and closing mechanism is installed at the discharge port of the roller body and is used to close or open the discharge port.
[0010] Furthermore, the door opening and closing mechanism includes:
[0011] The storage door has a V-shaped sliding rail along its edge;
[0012] A door mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the roller body, and the door mounting bracket is provided with a V-shaped groove that cooperates with the V-shaped slide rail;
[0013] The piston rod of the door-pushing cylinder is connected to the door via a slider.
[0014] When the cylinder pushes, the slider moves the silo door forward along the V-shaped groove until the discharge port is completely closed; when the cylinder retracts, the silo door slides backward, opening the discharge port. This V-shaped groove structure prevents the silo door from falling downward when the equipment vibrates, and also prevents it from opening upward under internal pressure, ensuring a reliable seal.
[0015] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a pulley and a power transmission shaft.
[0016] The beneficial effects of adopting this technical solution are:
[0017] Uniform mixing and thorough maturation: By setting up a special closed mixing section and notched mixing blades, as well as a door opening and closing mechanism, the dough is fully mixed and allowed to rest and mature before being discharged, resulting in the full formation of the gluten network and greatly improving the uniformity and extensibility of the dough.
[0018] High-quality dough: The dough, which has been fully cooked, is pressed into a more complete and uniform shape, with good elasticity and a significantly improved taste.
[0019] The structure is stable and reliable: the bearing seats at both ends ensure smooth operation; the V-shaped sliding groove design of the door ensures sealing when closed, prevents leakage, and ensures reliable operation. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0026] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] In this embodiment, see Figures 1-4 As shown, the core of this invention's maturation stirring roller is a horizontal roller body 1. Both ends of the roller body 1 are supported and pressed together by bearing seats 2 to ensure a consistent rotation center and smooth operation. A drive mechanism, such as a motor, is connected to the screw shaft 5 via a pulley and transmission shaft, providing it with power for low-speed rotation.
[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the spiral shaft 5 penetrates the interior of the roller body 1. The section near the feed inlet 3 is a continuous spiral conveying section 51, responsible for the initial mixing and conveying of the material. The section near the discharge outlet 4 is a mixing section 52, as shown... Figure 5 As shown, its blades 53 have rectangular notches 54, which can effectively break up and knead the dough and prevent blockage.
[0029] As an optimization of the above embodiments, such as Figure 4 The diagram shows the specific structure of the opening and closing mechanism of the silo door 6. The silo door mounting bracket 7 is welded and fixed to the periphery of the discharge port 4 of the roller body 1. The V-shaped slide rail 9 on the edge of the silo door 6 is embedded in the V-shaped slide groove 10 of the bracket. The cylinder body of the silo door pushing cylinder 8 is fixed to the bracket, and the slider at the end of its piston rod is fixedly connected to the silo door 6. When the piston rod of the cylinder extends, it pushes the silo door 6 forward along the V-shaped slide groove 10, closing the discharge port 4; when the piston rod retracts, it pulls the silo door 6 backward, opening the discharge port 4.
[0030] During operation: materials are fed in through the feed inlet 3; the control cylinder closes the chamber door 6, so that the mixing section 52 forms a closed "maturation chamber".
[0031] The drive mechanism is started, and the screw shaft 5 rotates at low speed. The material is fed into the area where the mixing section 52 is located through the screw conveyor section 51 and initially fills it. The blades 53 with notches 54 perform long-term and repeated mixing and kneading of the dough in the chamber to achieve maturation.
[0032] After maturation, the cylinder opens the chamber door 6, and the dough is pushed out by the spiral shaft 5 and falls into the subsequent pressing rollers for pressing and shaping.
[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
