Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、液状粘稠物中に粒状物を均一に分散混合する装置に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
近年、粒状物を混合した液体を包装用フィルムからなる包装袋に封入充填して、少量のポーションとして販売することが多い。例えば、微塵切り野菜入りもしくは粒状香辛料入り等のドレッシングやハンバーグソース、挽肉入りパスタソース、あるいは大学芋用の胡麻入り水飴などを小袋充填したものが挙げられる。
【0003】
これらの、軟・硬各種の粒状物を分散混合してなる液状の被包装物は、自動充填包装機を介し、包装用フィルムからなる包装袋に包装される。この自動充填包装機に導入される液状の被包装物は、粒状物を液体中に予め混合したものが用いられており、この被包装物を所定量づつ包装袋内に充填するのである。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ここで、自動充填包装機に導入される液状の被包装物は、液中に粒状物が均一に混合していることが重要である。なぜなら、粒状物が均一に混合されていないと、包装後の包装袋間で内容物に差異が生じる結果、製品としての条件が満足されなくなるからである。
【0005】
従って、上記の包装を連続して行うためには、予め液中に粒状物を均一に混合したものを大量に作製しておく必要があるが、前記で例示したように、ここで扱う液体は油やソース、または水飴などの比較的に粘度の高い液状粘稠物であり、ここに粒径の小さい粒状物を分散状態を維持して均一混合するのは至難の技であり、そのための方法並びに装置が希求されていた。即ち、前記液状粘稠物と粒状物とを、少なくとも一気に混合すると、該粒状物は偏析した状態となり、これはその後も修正されることなく自動充填包装機に供給されて、製品品質の低下を招くことになる。
【0006】
そこで、本発明は、前記の問題を解消し、液状粘稠物中に粒状物を均一に分散混合するための装置を提供することを目的とする
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的の達成に向けた研究の中で、発明者らは、下記要旨構成に係る混合装置に想到した。即ち、筒状容器の内部に、該容器の側壁より高さの低い漏斗を配置し、容器内壁と漏斗外壁との間に区画形成した、周溝の内部に、容器外から液状粘稠物を連続的に導入し、該液状粘稠物を漏斗内部に向かってオーバーフローさせ、漏斗内壁に沿って液状粘稠物が流下する過程において、漏斗内部に一定量の粒状物を供給して液状粘稠物中に粒状物を均一に分散混合させるべく機能させるため、筒状容器の内部に、該容器の側壁より高さの低い漏斗を配置し、容器内壁と漏斗外壁との間に、液状粘稠物を装入する周溝を区画形成し、漏斗内部に一定量の粒状物を供給する、切出しホッパを、漏斗の上方に配設するとともに、漏斗と切出しホッパとの間に、案内筒を介して漏斗内に進入する、その漏斗より小径の小漏斗を配置してなる粒状物と液状粘稠物との混合装置を開発した。
【0009】
前記の混合装置において、
(1)前記漏斗の下方には、液状粘稠物と粒状物との混合体を漏斗内から吸引するポンプを配置すること、
(2) 斗の下方に、液状粘稠物と粒状物との均一混合を助成するスタティックミキサーを配置すること
が実施に当り有利に適合する構成である。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に、本発明の実施の形態について図面を参照して説明するが、粒状物と液状粘稠物とから液体被包装物を、小袋自動充填装置によって包装する方法としては、出願人は先に、特願平2000−192365号として提案したが、この方法は、「粒状物を含む液状被包装物を、包装用フィルムよりなる包装袋によって包装するに当り、前記液状被包装物を、それの圧送圧力に基いて粒状物を含まない液状主体と、粒状物を含む液状体とに分離するとともに、液状主体を包装用フィルム間へ連続的に供給する一方、前記液状体を往復動アクチュエータ流入させ、この液状体を、包装袋の底部と頂部との順次の夾雑物シールの間に、往復動アクチュエータの吐出作用によって包装用フィルム間へ間欠的に充填する、粒状物を含む液状被包装物の包装方法。」である。
【0011】
即ち、本発明は、先行提案に係る「粒状物を含む液状被包装物の包装を実現するための、粒状物を予め均一に分散混合してなる液状被包装物を提供するための装置を提案する。
【0012】
図1は、本発明に係る混合装置を例示する概略側面図である。この図において、符号1は、粒状物を貯留するホッパー1aおよびその下端に取り付けた切出機1bからなる、粒状物の定量切出しを行う切出しホッパーである。この切出しホッパー1の下方に、切出しホッパー1からの粒状物と、液状粘稠物との混合を司る筒状の容器2を、好ましくは同軸的に配置する。
【0013】
この容器2の内部には、その内部構造を図2に示すように、該容器2の側壁より高さの低い漏斗3を、開口を上に拡げる向きに配置し、容器2内壁と漏斗3外壁との間に、液状粘稠物を貯留するための周溝4を区画形成してなる。この周溝4には、容器2の側壁下部に貫通させて設けた導入管5aおよび5bを介して、図示しない外部ポンプから液状粘稠物6が連続的に供給される。
【0014】
一方、容器2上部の開口を覆う蓋2aには、漏斗3より小径の小漏斗7を、漏斗3と同様に開口を上に拡げる向きで取り付け、切出しホッパー1からの粒状物を、ここで一旦受ける役目を担う。この小漏斗7で受けた粒状物は、図示のように、下端部が漏斗3内に進入する案内筒7aを介して、漏斗3の内部へと導かれる。
なお、切出しホッパー1、小漏斗7、案内筒7aおよび漏斗3、さらには容器2については、同軸上に配置することが好ましい。
【0015】
次に、以上の構成を有する混合装置における、粒状物と液状粘稠物との混合要領について、図3を参照して説明する。
まず、容器2内の周溝部4に液状粘稠物6を連続的に供給し、該周溝4内に液状粘稠物6が充満した後も、その供給を続行することによって、図3に示すように、液状粘稠物6を周溝部4から漏斗3内部に向い、いわゆる周方向に全域から均等にオーバーフローさせる。この状態において、液状粘稠物6は漏斗3の全周域から均等な落下液となって流れているが、このとき、粒状物8を切出しホッパー1から連続的に切り出し、粒状物8を小漏斗7および案内筒7aから容器2内に落下させる。小漏斗7および案内筒7aから漏斗3に向けて落下する粒状物8は、漏斗3内壁に沿って流下する液状粘稠物6に供給されて包み込まれ捕捉されて、均一な分散混合状態となる。
【0016】
ここで、液状粘稠物6は、容器2内に一定量を連続して供給されているため、周溝4から漏斗3内壁に向かってオーバーフローする液状粘稠物6の流下速度は一定になる。従って、この一定速度の液状粘稠物6の流れに粒状物8が連続的に供給されることになるから、その混合が均一分散状態となるのである。
【0017】
また、漏斗3内壁において混合された、液状粘稠物6と粒状物8とは、図4に示すように、漏斗3の下方に配置したポンプ9にて吸引して、次工程、例えば前述した自動充填包装機へと送られる。その際、ポンプ9による吸引過程に設けたスタティックミキサー10にて、液状粘稠物6と粒状物8との均一混合をより確実にすることが好ましい。
【0018】
【発明の効果】
以上述べたように、この発明によれば、液状粘稠物中に粒状物を均一に分散混合することができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to equipment you uniformly dispersed mixture of granules in the liquid viscosity during稠物.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, a liquid in which granular materials are mixed is often enclosed and filled in a packaging bag made of a packaging film and sold as a small portion. For example, dressings containing finely chopped vegetables or granular spices, hamburger sauce, pasta sauce with minced meat, or sesame-filled syrup for university bowls.
[0003]
These liquid objects to be packaged obtained by dispersing and mixing various types of soft and hard granular materials are packaged in a packaging bag made of a packaging film via an automatic filling and packaging machine. The liquid package to be introduced into the automatic filling and packaging machine is prepared by mixing granular materials in the liquid in advance, and the package is filled into the packaging bag by a predetermined amount.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Here, it is important that the liquid material to be packaged introduced into the automatic filling and packaging machine has a granular material uniformly mixed in the liquid. This is because if the granular materials are not uniformly mixed, the contents as a result of a difference between the packaging bags after packaging will result in failure to satisfy the product conditions.
[0005]
Therefore, in order to carry out the above-described packaging continuously, it is necessary to prepare a large amount of a mixture in which a granular material is uniformly mixed in advance, but as illustrated above, the liquid handled here is A liquid viscous material with relatively high viscosity, such as oil, sauce, or chickenpox, and it is difficult to uniformly mix particles having a small particle size while maintaining a dispersed state. There was also a need for a device. That is, when the liquid viscous material and the granular material are mixed at least at once, the granular material becomes segregated, which is supplied to the automatic filling and packaging machine without being corrected thereafter, thereby reducing the product quality. Will be invited.
[0006]
The present onset Ming is to solve the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a equipment for uniformly dispersing and mixing the granules in the liquid viscosity during稠物.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Among the research for achieving the above object, the inventors have conceived the mixed GoSo location according to the following summary and construction. That is , a funnel having a height lower than the side wall of the container is placed inside the cylindrical container, and a liquid viscous material is placed from the outside of the container in the circumferential groove formed between the inner wall of the container and the outer wall of the funnel. In the process of continuously introducing, overflowing the liquid viscous material toward the inside of the funnel, and flowing the liquid viscous material along the inner wall of the funnel, a certain amount of granular material is supplied to the inside of the funnel. A funnel having a height lower than the side wall of the container is placed inside the cylindrical container so that the granular material functions to uniformly disperse and mix in the material, and a liquid viscous liquid is placed between the inner wall of the container and the outer wall of the funnel. A cut-out hopper is provided above the funnel to form a circumferential groove for charging the material and supply a certain amount of granular material inside the funnel, and a guide cylinder is interposed between the funnel and the cut-out hopper. enters the funnel Te, and the particulate product obtained by placing a small funnel diameter smaller than the funnel We developed a mixing device with Jo viscous.
[0009]
In the mixing device,
(1) Arranged below the funnel is a pump for sucking a mixture of liquid viscous material and granular material from the funnel,
(2) below the leakage DOO, it is advantageously compatible configuration hits the is implemented to place a static mixer to aid uniform mixing of the liquid viscous and particulates.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As a method for packaging a liquid package from a granular material and a liquid viscous material by a sachet automatic filling device, the applicant first , Japanese Patent Application No. 2000-192365 has proposed, but this method is described as follows: “When packaging a liquid package containing granular materials with a packaging bag made of a packaging film, Based on the pumping pressure, the liquid main body which does not contain particulate matter and the liquid body containing particulate matter are separated and the liquid main body is continuously supplied between the packaging films, while the liquid body flows into the reciprocating actuator . And the liquid material to be packaged including the granular material, which is intermittently filled between the packaging films by the discharge action of the reciprocating actuator between the sequential contaminant seals at the bottom and top of the packaging bag. Wrapping method. "Is.
[0011]
In other words, the present invention proposes an apparatus for providing a liquid package, in which the granular material is uniformly dispersed and mixed in advance, in order to realize the packaging of the liquid package including the granular material according to the prior proposal. To do.
[0012]
Figure 1 is a schematic side view illustrating the engagement Ru mixing apparatus according to the present invention. In this figure, the code | symbol 1 is the extraction hopper which performs the fixed quantity extraction of a granular material which consists of the hopper 1a which stores a granular material, and the cutting machine 1b attached to the lower end. Below the cutting hopper 1, a cylindrical container 2 that controls mixing of the granular material from the cutting hopper 1 and the liquid viscous material is preferably arranged coaxially.
[0013]
As shown in FIG. 2, the funnel 3 having a height lower than the side wall of the container 2 is disposed in the container 2 so that the opening extends upward, and the inner wall of the container 2 and the outer wall of the funnel 3. The circumferential groove 4 for storing the liquid viscous material is defined between the two. A liquid viscous material 6 is continuously supplied to the circumferential groove 4 from an external pump (not shown) through introduction pipes 5 a and 5 b provided so as to penetrate the lower portion of the side wall of the container 2.
[0014]
On the other hand, a small funnel 7 having a diameter smaller than that of the funnel 3 is attached to the lid 2a covering the opening at the upper part of the container 2 so that the opening is expanded upward as in the funnel 3, and the particulate matter from the cutting hopper 1 is temporarily attached here. Take the role of receiving. The granular material received by the small funnel 7 is guided to the inside of the funnel 3 through a guide tube 7 a whose lower end enters the funnel 3 as shown in the figure .
The cutting hopper 1, the small funnel 7, the guide tube 7a and the funnel 3, and the container 2 are preferably arranged coaxially.
[0015]
Next, the mixing procedure of the granular material and the liquid viscous material in the mixing apparatus having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIG.
First, the liquid viscous material 6 is continuously supplied to the circumferential groove portion 4 in the container 2, and after the liquid viscous material 6 is filled in the circumferential groove 4, by continuing the supply, FIG. As shown, the liquid viscous material 6 is directed from the circumferential groove portion 4 to the inside of the funnel 3 and is uniformly overflowed from the entire region in the so-called circumferential direction. In this state, the liquid viscous material 6 flows as a uniform falling liquid from the entire circumference of the funnel 3, but at this time, the granular material 8 is cut out from the hopper 1 and the granular material 8 is small. It is dropped into the container 2 from the funnel 7 and the guide tube 7a. The granular material 8 that falls from the small funnel 7 and the guide tube 7a toward the funnel 3 is supplied to the liquid viscous material 6 that flows down along the inner wall of the funnel 3 and is trapped and captured to be in a uniformly dispersed mixed state. .
[0016]
Here, since a certain amount of the liquid viscous material 6 is continuously supplied into the container 2, the flow speed of the liquid viscous material 6 that overflows from the circumferential groove 4 toward the inner wall of the funnel 3 is constant. . Therefore, since the granular material 8 is continuously supplied to the flow of the liquid viscous material 6 at a constant speed, the mixing is uniformly dispersed.
[0017]
Further, the liquid viscous material 6 and the granular material 8 mixed in the inner wall of the funnel 3 are sucked by a pump 9 disposed below the funnel 3 as shown in FIG. Sent to automatic filling and packaging machine. At that time, it is preferable to make the uniform mixing of the liquid viscous material 6 and the granular material 8 more reliable with the static mixer 10 provided in the suction process by the pump 9.
[0018]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, the granular material can be uniformly dispersed and mixed in the liquid viscous material.
