Abstract
本发明采用密闭管(30)以便生产卷曲膨化挤出物(20)，并在挤出物(16)离开模具时，采用刀片(40)对挤出物(16)进行切刻。在管和挤出物模具(12)之间设有间隙，以允许当挤出物(16)离开模具(12)内的模孔(14)时，刀片(40)接近挤出物(16)。在挤出物(16)冷却和硬化之前，当挤出物(16)处于粘性熔融状态时，刀片(40)接近挤出物(16)。与完全切断挤出物相反，刀片(40)对挤出物(16)进行切刻，从而在整个处理过程中例如在密闭管(30)内卷曲时允许挤出物(16)保持连接。当挤出物离开模具(12)内的模孔(14)时，该间隙还允许蒸汽从挤出物(16)排出。当油炸或烘焙时，卷曲膨化挤出物(20)分离。
Description
发明的背景
1.技术领域
本发明通常涉及膨化挤出物的生产，特别是涉及一种由单个卷曲膨化挤出物来生产若干类似形状的卷曲膨化挤出物片的改进的方法。
2.现有技术的描述
现有技术的膨化挤压制品，例如以CHEETOSTM产品商标生产和销售的小吃，其生产典型的包括在极高压力下经过具有小模孔的模具挤压玉米粉或其它生面团。该生面团在离开小模孔时闪蒸或膨化，因此形成膨化挤出物。初始生面团的典型配料可以是，如，每立方英尺41磅的体积密度的玉米面，并且按重量计算含12％到13.5％的含水量。然而，初始生面团主要基于小麦粉，米粉，分离大豆，大豆浓缩物，任意其它谷物粉，蛋白粉，或者加有添加剂的强化粉，该添加的添加剂可包括卵磷脂，油，盐，糖，混合维生素，可溶性纤维，和不可溶性纤维。该混合物典型地包括100到1200微米的粒度。
图1表示膨化挤压工艺，图1是具有小直径出口模孔14的模具12的横截面示意图。在生产基于玉米的膨化产品时，典型的，玉米粉添加到单螺杆(即，AMERICAN EXTRUSION，WENGER；MADDOX)，或双螺杆(即，WENGER，CLEXTRAL，BUHLER)型挤压机，例如分别由美国和法国的WENGER制造的X25型或CLEXTRAL制造的BC45型。利用CHEETOS为实例，在挤压机中，水被加到玉米粉中，挤压机以每分100到1000转的螺杆速度操作，以便使玉米粉总含水量达到15％到18％。当玉米粉接近模具12时，玉米粉变成粘性熔融物10，接着被迫经过模具12内的一个非常小的开口或模孔14。模孔14的典型的直径范围在2.0毫米到12毫米之间，以适合传统水分含量的玉米粉配方，生产率，以及期望的挤出物杆直径或形状。然而，对于其它类型的挤出物材料，模孔直径可能实质上或更小或更大。
然而，在该小模孔14的内部，粘性熔融物10经受高压和高温，如600到3000psi并且接近400华氏度。因此，在模孔14内部，粘性熔融物10呈现塑性熔体现象，其中熔融物10的流动性在流经模具12时增加。
可以看出，在挤出物16离开模孔14时，它快速膨胀，冷却，并且很快从塑性熔融状态向玻璃化转变状态转化，形成相对刚性结构，如果是圆柱形膨化挤出物，它被认为是“杆”形。该刚性杆结构接着被切成小片，进一步被烹饪，如油炸，以及根据需要调味。
许多单独模具12可以在挤压机工作面组合，以便使任何一个挤压机的总生产量最大。如，尽管利用单螺杆和双螺杆压出机可以获得较高生产率，当使用上述双螺杆挤压机和玉米粉配方时，具有多个模具的双螺杆挤压机的典型生产量是2,200磅，这是每小时挤出物的较高生产量。在该生产率下，挤出物离开模具12时的速度典型的在每分1000到4000英尺的范围内，但它取决于挤压机生产量，螺杆速度，模孔直径，模孔数量和压力分布图。
如图1可见，通过该方法生产的小吃制品必然是线性挤出物，即使当切割时，产出的也是线性产品。对消费者研究显示，具有类似构造和风味但呈现“卷曲”，“螺旋”，“卷簧”形的产品(本申请人在此对所有术语均同义使用)是所期望的。这种螺旋形挤出物的实例在图2中描述，图2是螺旋形或卷曲形膨化挤出物20的一个实施例的透视图。用于生产卷曲膨化挤出物的设备是名为“用于生产卷曲膨化挤出物的方法和设备”的美国专利申请09/952,574的主题，该专利申请在此提出作为参考被结合入本申请。
已经证明卷曲膨化挤出物20很难切割成较小的更易处理的挤出片。一些类型的密闭容器例如管或管道(这里申请人同义地使用术语)用于卷曲膨化挤出物生产，特别是在挤压机启动和停止运转期间，在管的端部的切割装置导致管内波动和堵塞。图3表示包含与模面18连接的许多管30的装置的透视图。每个管30的出口端与挤压机工作面23连接。然后，该布置允许与具有许多单独的切割刀片26的圆形切割设备24的挤压机工作面23连接。这种布置图示为十个管30与模面18连接。尽管图3未图示，管30和挤压机工作面23的构造可设计成，模具12允许通风，直到满足具体条件(例如挤出物的容积密度，特定的机械能量，水份含量，螺杆速度，和模具压力)，接着管30通过管30和模具12之间的附加的可旋转板(未图示)装置可以在模具12上旋转。
然而，在多个管30组件中的管30的端部切割卷曲膨化挤出物20不是优选的，因为切割刀片26从一个管30向另一个牵引卷曲膨化挤出物20，这导致单独的卷曲膨化挤出物20片的端部成锯齿状且不均匀。图4是用类似于图3的装置切割的卷曲膨化挤出物20的一个片的实例。另外，当卷曲膨化挤出物20在多个管组件中生产时，管可以不以相同的速率生产挤出物，因此，单独的切割机切割的多个管将产生不同长度的卷曲膨化挤出物片。
当挤出物处于塑性熔融状态而不是玻璃化转变状态时，通过在模面上完全切断挤出物，即可解决这个问题。然而，在模面上切断挤出物使单独的挤出物片断开连接，有时候，在将挤出物分离成单独的挤出物片之前，使挤出物保持连接以便处理是优选的。处理的实例包括：在密闭容器内传送，调味，拉伸，分离，或限制挤出物。因此，需要一种切割处于塑性熔融状态的挤出物且不会使挤出物完全分离的有效方法。
图3的设备的另一个问题是它不允许蒸汽释放，且不允许其他热气体从膨胀的挤出物释放。因此，还需要一种用于使蒸汽和其它热气体排出以便它们不能进入密闭装置内的设备和方法。
应理解尽管需要一种能够在不堵塞密闭管的情况下切割卷曲膨化挤出物的设备，但不仅限于需要卷曲膨化挤出物，还需要一种切割正弦膨化挤出物以及其它类型的线性和非线性膨化挤出物的设备。
因此，需要一种将膨化挤出物切割成较小的膨化挤出物片，从而在单独的片的每端形成平滑断面的设备和方法。还需要一种在挤压机启动，操作和停止运转期间防止管堵???塞的设备和方法。另外需要一种从膨胀挤出物释放蒸汽的方法。而且，还需要一种在具有多个模孔的每个模具构造中控制单独的切割的膨化挤出物片的长度的设备和方法。
发明的概述
本发明包括对卷曲膨化挤出物切刻而不是切断它的切刻刀片设备。切刻在卷曲膨化挤出物内形成一系列薄弱点。薄弱点足够强，以便在输送工艺过程中保持卷曲膨化挤出物连接。然而，当卷曲膨化挤出物在烤炉或油炸锅内进一步处理时，卷曲膨化挤出物在切刻处断裂，使卷曲膨化挤出物分离成单独的片。
为了适当的方便切刻工艺，同时挤出物处于塑性熔融状态，切刻应尽可能接近模头。管与模头分离，以便刀片可接近模头孔。最终的分离还允许蒸汽从膨胀的挤出物排出，以代替经过管前进。蒸汽的释放允许卷曲膨化挤出物更平稳地流经管，并有助于防止堵塞和波动。
本发明还包括管定位装置，在操作期间，该管定位装置将管定位在模头孔上，但在启动和停止运转期间使管从模头孔移开。在启动和停止运转期间使管从模孔移开是期望的，因为在上述期间，挤出物倾向于波动并堵塞管。为了便于不同深度的切刻，还公开了一种刀片定位装置。
本发明的优选实施例利用每个模孔的切刻刀片。然而，当一些模具构造不允许每个模孔一个切刻刀片时，还公开了一种用于为多个模孔切刻的中央刀片设备。
本发明的优选实施例还利用烤炉或油炸锅来分离切刻的卷曲膨化挤出物。然而，在一些情况下，烤炉或油炸锅不是优选的，这样还公开了一种可替代的分离装置。替代的分离装置包括叶轮，振动传送带，和翻转器。
通过下面的详细描述，本发明的上述以及其它特征和优点将变的更明显。

详细说明
图5是本发明的一个实施例的立视图。在整个附图中，除非特别指出，相同的参考标号用来指代相同的元件。如同现有技术，挤出物16离开模具12中的模孔14。模孔14的横截面直径取决于特定的生面团配方，生产率，和所期望的杆(或其它形状)直径，但最好在1mm至14mm的范围内。(模孔14直径还取决于被挤压的玉米粉或配方混合物的平均粒度)。
如果期望有卷曲膨化挤出物20，可使用具有活动挡板32的管30。活动挡板32对离开模孔14的挤出物16施压，以便挤出物16形成卷曲。管定位装置34用来使管30定位在模孔14前或离开该模孔。管定位装置34能够相对于模具12在任意方向移动管30。管定位装置的实例是电力伺服电动机，气动传动装置，液压传动装置，和机械螺杆。管刀片36也固定在靠近模具12的管30的端部。
切刻刀片40定位成与模面18齐平，并且，绕轴44或者旋转或者摆动。切刻刀片40和轴44由电动机42供给动力，电动机与刀片定位装置46连接。刀片定位装置46能够使电动机42，轴44，和切刻刀片40在相对于模具12的任意方向移动。刀片定位装置46的实例是电力伺服电动机，气动传动装置，液压传动装置，和机械螺杆。为了有效地使离开模孔14的挤出物16切刻，切刻刀片40定位成使得当通过模孔14前面时，切刻刀片40的端部仅部分覆盖模孔14。切刻刀片40完全覆盖模孔14导致完全切刻挤出物16，这不允许挤出物16保持连接，以便进行附加的处理。应理解切刻刀片40覆盖模孔14的程度确定挤出物16切刻的深度。切刻越深使得挤出物16越容易断开，这里适当地称之为可折断性。切刻越浅使得挤出物16越容易保持连接，这里适当地称之为可连接性。模孔14覆盖的量以覆盖百分比表示，该覆盖百分比等于覆盖模孔14的切刻刀片40的长度除以模孔14横截面直径。期望的覆盖百分比取决于粘性熔化物10的种类和模孔14的尺寸。80％至90％的覆盖百分比通常被认为是针对所述熔化物10和模孔14的可折断性和可连接性之间的可接受的平衡。如果希望，切刻刀片40对挤出物16切刻的速率增加，以致切刻刀片40对挤出物16切刻比挤出物16卷曲更快。当这完成且切刻挤出物16分离时，形成较小的“C”形挤出物片。
另一个影响切刻尺寸的因素是切刻刀片40尖端形状。尽管尖角切刻刀片40能够对挤出物16切刻，方边切刻刀片40(即切刻刀片40的边缘包含两个九十度角处)证明在卷曲膨化挤出物20内形成切刻方面非常有效。
在启动期间，管30定位成离开模孔14，管刀片36布置成牢固抵靠模面18。当挤压机启动并接近操作参数时，它将挤压不合需要的挤出物16。在启动期间，挤压机还从模孔14挤压过量的热气体，例如蒸汽。蒸汽和其它热气体容易导致管30堵塞。管30定位成离开模孔14将允许不合需要的挤出物16绕过管30，并防止不合需要的挤出物16，蒸汽和其它热气体堵塞管30。在启动期间，电动机42通常不运行，以便初始挤出物16不被切刻。作为选择，如果电动机42在运行，刀片定位装置46可给移动切刻刀片40定位，以便刀片切割半径22不会覆盖模孔14，且切刻刀片40不会对挤出物16切刻，也不会影响管30的定位。以这种方式，电动机42和切刻刀片40达到操作速度，但不会对挤出物16切刻，也不会影响管30的定位。如果需要，切刻刀片40由刀片定位装置46定位，以便它完全切割离开模孔14的挤出物16。该方法将挤出物16切割成较小的片并不再需要分离装置。
图6A-6C表示本发明的一个实施例的启动和操作程序。当挤压机达到其操作参数时，管定位装置34使管30定位，以便管刀片36与模面18齐平(参见图6A)。然后，管定位装置34迅速使管30横过模面18滑动，直到模孔14在管30的内径内(参见图6B)。当管刀片36经过模孔14时，管刀片36切下一片旧的挤出物16，并允许模孔14将新的挤出物16挤进管30内，这里活动挡板32与挤出物16接触，并使其卷曲和形成卷曲膨化挤出物20。
在管定位装置34使管30定位在模孔14上之后，管定位装置34使管30移动离开模具12(参见图6C)。管30与模面18分离形成间隙38。间隙38允许气体例如蒸汽从膨胀挤出物16溢出，并在挤出物16离开模孔14时，允许切刻刀片40接近挤出物16。4-8毫米的间距被认为是管30内包含的卷曲挤出物之间的良好平衡，这允许切刻刀片40接近挤出物16，并允许充分的释放蒸汽。应理解间隙38可根据挤出物16的压力和温度，活动挡板32形成的反压力，和切刻刀片40的厚度而变化。
还应理解模孔14，切刻刀片40和管30的多个实施例可在单个模具12内构成。图7是具有四个这样的实施例的模具12的示意图。刀片切割半径22由切刻刀片40的外伸距离限定，并仅局部覆盖模孔14。与其它构造比，图7所示的切刻刀片40的定位是优选的，例如轴44靠近模面18的边缘，因为刀片切割半径22没有伸展超出模面18的周边。使刀片切割半径22保持在模面18周边内有助于防止靠近挤出物和模具12工作的人员受伤。在具有多个模孔14的模具12操作期间，挤出物16排出率对于不同模孔14是不同的。每个模孔14采用一个切刻刀片40的实施例是优选的，因为它允许操作者或自动控制者基于挤出物16输出速率和卷曲速率来调节切刻刀片40的速度。通过将切刻刀片40的速度调节到单个模孔14的挤出物16的输出率，这样可精确的控制每个单独模孔14的挤出物16上的切刻处之间的距离，从而形成均匀长度的卷曲膨化挤出物20片。
在一些情况下，每个模孔14采用一个切刻刀片40的实施例并非必须或优选的。在这些情况下，如图8A，8B和8C所示，采用中央切刻设备定位装置(未图示)中央切刻设备62可采用刀片定位装置64，和至少一个刀片60。中央切刻设备定位装置可相对于模具12在任意方向使中央切刻设备62移动。中央切刻设备定位装置62的实例是电力伺服电动机，气动传动装置，液压传动装置，和机械螺杆。如图8A-8C所示的中央切刻设备62用来切割或对若干模孔14切刻。图8A-8C表示将中央切刻设备62定位在模面18中心内的工艺，以便中央切刻设备62的刀片60能够对多个模孔14切刻。在图8A中，中央切刻设备62被定位在接近模面18处。电动机(未图示)给中央切刻设备62提供动力。当中央切刻设备62开始旋转时，由中央切刻设备62的旋转产生的离心力强制打开刀片60。刀片定位装置64引导刀片60就位，以便当完全打开时，它们平行于模面18。作为替换，刀片定位装置64可驱动或受控制，以便强制刀片60就位。在图8B中，离心力继续使刀片60伸展，并将其定位成靠近模面18。切刻设备62继续旋转，因此，刀片60移动就位，并对离开模孔14的挤出物16切刻(参见图8C)。刀片60还足够伸展，以便完全切断离开模孔14的挤出物16。
再次参见图5，在离开管30后，卷曲膨化挤出物20通常输送到用于烘焙的烤炉中或用于油炸的油炸锅内。卷曲膨化挤出物20中的切刻处比卷曲膨化挤出物20的其余部分薄弱，结果卷曲膨化挤出物20裂开成单独的卷曲膨化挤出物20片，烘焙或油炸没有或很少机械操纵。图9是在油炸锅内分离的切刻的卷曲膨化挤出物20的一个实例。
在一些应用中，在烘焙，油炸或一些其它处理之前将单独的卷曲膨化挤出物20分离是期望的。在这种情况下，存在用于分离切刻的卷曲膨化挤出物20的不同装置。一种类型的分离装置是叶轮。图10A和10B是表示叶轮。在图10A和10B所公开的实施例中，卷曲膨化挤出物20离开管30，并沿输送带移动，该输送带平行于叶轮的轴70。图10A和10B的视图是离开纸页并朝向观看者输送的卷曲膨化挤出物20。每个叶轮包括与电动机(未图示)的轴70。若干叶轮72与轴70连接。当轴70旋转时，叶轮72与切刻卷曲膨化挤出物20接触(图10A)。通过这点，卷曲膨化挤出物20充分冷却至硬化。当叶轮72与卷曲膨化挤出物20接触时，切刻卷曲膨化挤出物20在最弱点断裂，即切刻。单独的卷曲膨化挤出物20片落进叶轮下面的收集箱内(图10B)。导向件74阻止卷曲膨化挤出物20本身再定位成离开叶轮72的工作半径。
应认识到叶轮不是唯一用于分离单独的卷曲膨化挤出物20片的装置。翻转器可用来翻滚未分离的卷曲膨化挤出物20，直到卷曲膨化挤出物20片断开。然后，卷曲膨化挤出物20片从翻转器移开。卷曲膨化挤出物20还在振动传送带或具有阶跃变化或方向变化的传送带上分离，以便于产品分离。本领域的普通技术人员还意识到用于分离切刻的卷曲膨化挤出物20的不同的其它装置。
尽管本发明以卷曲膨化挤出物20作为参考进行了公开，应理解本发明可采用圆柱形，独特的形状，或任意其它种类的挤出物16。另外，本发明可采用利用任意方法对准固体流出物切断或切刻所需的任意时间。
还应理解多于一个的模具12可经规定路线进入单独一个管30内。例如，管30可从两个靠近的模孔14接纳挤出物16。而且，本发明采用生产许多形状的模具12，例如星形或方形横截面，或更复杂的形状，例如仙人掌或辣椒形状。
本发明可采用许多不同种类的挤压机，包括任意长度和可在广泛的旋转速度下操作的双螺杆压出机和单螺杆压出机。而且，尽管已经参考基于谷物的产品描述了本发明的方法，应该理解本发明可用于任意膨化挤出物，包括主要基于小麦，稻米或其它类型的蛋白质源或其混合物的产品。事实上，本发明可应用于包含挤压材料的任意领域。该挤压材料在挤压经过模孔后快速变成玻璃化转变状态。
尽管结合优选实施例已经对本发明作了特别显示和描述，本领域的技术人员可以理解在不超出本发明的实质和范围的前提下，本发明的形式和细节可进行不同的修改。
