Since the wide noodle 10 has a wideness of 3 to 15 times the thickness, and further, the wide face is provided with the plurality of concaves 14 and 15 in the longitudinal direction, its surface area is high compared with the volume of the noodle and boiling time can be reduced, and further, upon eating, soup is easy to be fitted thereto. Then, owing to the plurality of concaves 14 and 15 in the longitudinal direction, even if the noodle lines are overlapped, the contact parts are only projecting parts, and contact in a wide area hardly occurs. Further, even if they are contacted, hot water infiltrates from the parts of the concaves 14 and 15, thus the sticking of the respective surfaces is hard to occur upon boiling.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2

Description

  The present invention is an apparatus for cutting a strip-shaped noodle dough (hereinafter referred to as “noodle strip”) into noodle strings having a predetermined width, and in particular, the width of the noodle strings is about 3 to 15 times the thickness. The present invention relates to a noodle making apparatus for producing noodle strings. The present invention also relates to a cutting blade roll for the noodle making apparatus and a wide noodle manufactured by the noodle making apparatus.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a noodle making apparatus that cuts noodle strips into noodle strings with a roll (hereinafter referred to as a cutting blade roll) in which a large number of disc-shaped cutting blades are arranged at intervals corresponding to the width of the noodle strings is known. In this type of noodle making apparatus, a cutting blade roll and a roll (receiving roll) for receiving the cutting edge of the cutting blade roll are provided one by one, or a pair of (two) cutting blade rolls are provided at the cutting edge. The noodle strip is cut in the longitudinal direction by passing the noodle strip between the two rolls while rotating the two rolls to produce a noodle string.

  Patent Document 1 describes a noodle making apparatus in which each of two cutting blade rolls is provided with one protrusion lower than the cutting blade height between two adjacent cutting blades. ing. In this noodle making apparatus, when the noodle band passes between the two cutting blade rolls, the noodle band is cut into the noodle strings, and at the same time, the longitudinal direction of the noodle strings on the two front and back surfaces of the noodle strings A recess (necked portion) is formed that extends to. By forming the constricted portion in this way, the cross section of the noodle strings becomes an eyebrows shape, and it is said that the time can be shortened by boiling.

  In Patent Document 2, a pair of (two) rolls having protrusions extending in an axial direction or an inclined direction (spiral direction) formed on the surface are provided in front of a cutting blade roll so as to face each other. A noodle device is described. In this noodle making apparatus, first, when the noodle band passes between the two uneven rolls, the surface of the noodle band is formed with a vertical or inclined recess in the longitudinal direction, and then the noodle band is cut by the cutting blade roll. Cut into lines. As a result, each noodle string is formed with a plurality of grooves that are perpendicular or inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction, which not only shortens the time required for boiling, but also changes the texture of the noodles by changing the thickness of the noodles in the longitudinal direction. It is said that noodles with a good texture can be obtained.

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 56-167888 JP 2007-228942

  In recent years, the amount of information for general consumers regarding foods has increased, and not only so-called classic noodles such as udon, soba and Chinese noodles, but also a wide variety of noodles have become known. For example, the wide noodles are known as noodles that satisfy eating.

  When such a wide noodle is boiled, there is a problem that adjacent noodle strings are in contact with each other at their wide surfaces and the boil is insufficient at that portion.

  The noodles described in Patent Document 1 have a cross-sectional shape of the eyebrows and are not so-called wide surfaces. That is, there is no wide portion on the surface of the noodle strings, and this is not satisfactory for consumers who want a texture (tactile feeling) due to the wide surface.

  The same applies to the noodles described in Patent Document 2, and since there is no wide surface in the width direction and there is no continuous surface in the longitudinal direction, for consumers who want a smooth texture (tactile sensation) and firm stiffness. Is unsatisfactory.

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is a wide noodle that has a wide surface and hardly adheres to the surface when it is boiled, and a noodle making apparatus that can manufacture such a wide noodle string, It is to provide a cutting blade roll.

  The present invention made to solve the above problems is that the width of the noodle strings is 3 to 50 mm, the ratio to the thickness is 3 to 15, and has a plurality of longitudinal grooves on the wide surface. It is a wide noodle that is characterized.

Since the noodle strings of the wide noodles according to the present invention have a plurality of longitudinal ridges on the wide surface (the wide surface), the surface area is large compared to the volume of the noodles, and the cooking time is shortened. It is easy to get soup when eating. Moreover, since the longitudinal groove is divided into a plurality of lines, there are at least convex portions on both sides and the center in the width direction, and as a whole, a tactile sensation as a wide surface can be given. By providing a flat portion (flat portion) on each of these convex portions, such tactile sensation is further enhanced, and a preferable texture as wide noodles can be provided. Furthermore, since the noodle strings of the wide noodle according to the present invention can be curved or have a complicated shape in the cross section due to the plurality of concave stripes, various tactile sensations (food textures) can be given.
Moreover, even if noodle strings overlap each other, the contact portions are only convex portions, and there is almost no contact in a wide area. And even if it contacts, since hot water penetrates from a concave-line part, when boiling, adhesion of surfaces does not arise easily.

Such a wide noodle noodle string according to the present invention can be manufactured by the following noodle making apparatus. That is, the noodle making apparatus according to the present invention is a device for cutting a noodle strip, which is a strip-shaped noodle dough, into noodle strings by a pair of cutting blade rolls each having a disk-shaped cutting blade connected thereto,
The interval between the cutting blades in the cutting blade roll is 3 to 50 mm, and a plurality of concave forming plates having a lower height than the cutting blade are provided between two adjacent cutting blades.

  Here, the height of the cutting blade or the groove forming plate refers to the distance from the cylindrical base surface of the cutting blade roll to the tip of the cutting blade or the outermost diameter portion of the groove forming plate.

  According to the noodle making apparatus according to the present invention, the noodle strings cut out by the pair of cutting blade rolls are widened by a plurality of groove forming plates provided between two adjacent cutting blades. A plurality of ridges are formed on the surface, parallel to the longitudinal direction of the noodle strings. That is, the wide noodle strings of the present invention are produced.

  The plurality of longitudinal recesses of the wide noodles according to the present invention may be on only one wide surface or on both wide surfaces. When providing a plurality of longitudinal grooves on both wide surfaces, the grooves on both wide surfaces may be opposed to each other or may be provided alternately. The apparatus for producing these wide noodles is configured by using one of the cutting blade rolls as a flat roll, or by providing a streak forming disk opposite to the two cutting blade rolls or alternately. Can do.

  When the groove is provided only on one wide surface and when it is provided opposite to both wide surfaces, the noodle strings are formed by being pushed in the thickness direction by the groove forming plate at the time of manufacture. In a single noodle string, the density in the groove is higher than in other portions, and the strength is increased. Therefore, the so-called “noodle stiffness” is strengthened, and the noodles are not easily bent when the noodle strings are boiled, and it is possible to suppress the occurrence of adhesion in one noodle string. Further, since there are a plurality of high density portions in one noodle string, moisture movement in the noodle string is hindered, and aging of the noodles can be suppressed.

  On the other hand, in the wide noodles in which the grooves on both wide surfaces are staggered, the flat portion between the grooves is likely to be convex due to the recesses on the opposite surface, and the contact area between the noodle strings is smaller. Therefore, there is less adhesion between the noodle strings. In addition, since the noodle strings as a whole have a plurality of convex portions in the width direction, a flat tactile sensation desired for wide noodles can be given as a whole.

  The noodle strings of the wide noodles according to the present invention are wide with a width of 3 to 15 times the thickness, and since there are a plurality of longitudinal ridges on the wide surface, the surface area is large compared to the volume of the noodles, Time can be shortened with boil. Also, it is easy to get soup when eating. And even if the noodle strings overlap each other due to the plurality of longitudinal ridges, the contact portions are only portions (convex portions) that are not ridges, and there is almost no contact in a wide area. And even if it contacts, since hot water penetrates from a concave-line part, when boiling, adhesion of surfaces does not arise easily.

A transmission gear for rotating the blade roll 101 and the second cutting blade roll 102 in the opposite directions at a constant speed is provided.

FIG. 1B shows an enlarged view of the cutting blade rolls 101 and 102, and FIG. 1C shows the dimensions of the cutting blade rolls 101 and 102. FIG. Fig. 1 (b) is an enlarged view of portion b (portion surrounded by a dotted line) in Fig. 1 (a), and Fig. 1 (c) is portion c (portion surrounded by a dotted line) in Fig. 1 (b). ).
The first cutting blade roll 101 has a disk-shaped first cutting blade 11 whose outer periphery is processed into a single blade having a cutting edge angle of 30 ° on the cylindrical base surface 13 so that the cutting edge interval is constant (14 mm). A large number are connected. The height of the first cutting blade 11, that is, the distance in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the cutting blade roll 101 from the base surface 13 to the tip of the first cutting blade 11 is 4 mm. Between the adjacent first cutting blades 11, the thickness (that is, the axial dimension of the first cutting blade roll 101) is 2 mm, the height from the base surface 13 is 3.15 mm, and the outer periphery is rounded. The three first groove forming plates 12 are provided at substantially equal intervals.
Similarly, in the second cutting blade roll 102, a large number of second cutting blades 21 are provided on the cylindrical base surface 23 at the same cutting edge interval (14 mm) as the first cutting blade 11, and the height thereof is also the above-mentioned height. It is the same (4 mm) as the one cutting edge 11. Also in the second cutting blade roll 102, three similar second groove forming plates 22 are provided between the adjacent second cutting blades 21 at substantially equal intervals. The directions of the single blades are alternately reversed so that the cutting edges of the cutting blades 11 and 21 of the both cutting blade rolls 101 and 102 are in contact with each other at the predetermined interval (14 mm) corresponding to the width of the noodle strings.

  When the noodle strings are produced from the noodle band by the noodle making apparatus 100 of the present embodiment, first, the first cutting blade roll 101 and the first cutting blade 11 are arranged so that the positions of the first cutting blade 11 and the second cutting blade 21 are aligned. The position of the second cutting blade roll 102 in the axial direction is adjusted. Then, the first cutting blade roll 101 and the second cutting blade roll 102 are brought close to each other by the two adjusting screws 105 and 106 so that the cutting edges of the first cutting blade 11 and the second cutting blade 21 slightly overlap. Thereby, the distance between the 1st cutting blade roll 101 and the 2nd cutting blade roll 102 is defined, and the distance between the 1st groove forming board 12 and the 2nd groove forming board 22 is defined. For example, when the overlap between the cutting edges of the first cutting edge 11 and the second cutting edge 21 is 0.2 mm, the distance between the first groove forming board 12 and the second groove forming board 22 is 1.5 mm.

  And the 1st cutting blade roll 101 and the 2nd cutting blade roll 102 are rotationally driven with a motor, and the noodle strip 1 is passed between both rolls 101,102. A state in which the noodle band 1 having a thickness of 2 mm is cut into the noodle strings 10 by the noodle making apparatus 100 is shown in FIG. The noodle strings 10 of FIG. 2 have a width of 14 mm and a thickness of 2 mm, so the ratio of the width to the thickness is 7. When the noodle strings 10 are pushed in the thickness direction from above and below by the first groove forming plate 12 and the second groove forming plate 22, as shown in FIG.
