Description

The present invention relates to a dried seaweed production system for producing dried seaweed.

In the production of dried seaweed, raw seaweed algae and water are mixed to make a raw material for seaweed, and the raw material for seaweed is made into a seaweed bowl to form a seaweed dough. Dried seaweed is produced by drying it with a drying device.

A dried seaweed production system is used to produce this dried seaweed. In the dried nori production system, a nori making device for making nori dough, a dehydrating device for dehydrating the nori dough, and a dehydration device are provided on the transport path of the transport device for circulating and transporting the nori seaweed. A drying device for drying the nori dough is arranged in order to dehydrate and dry the nori dough made into the nori seaweed that is circulated and transported to produce dried nori.

The quality of the produced dried seaweed is evaluated by its color, luster, thickness, weight and density. Therefore, in the dried seaweed production system, it is required to appropriately control the weight that affects the quality of the dried seaweed.

Therefore, conventionally, in order to detect the thickness at the stage of the seaweed raw material in which the seaweed raw algae and water are mixed, the seaweed raw material is irradiated with light, and the thickness of the seaweed raw material is calculated from the amount of light transmitted through the seaweed raw material. It is designed to be recognized (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Special Publication No. 61-288372

However, due to the freshness and quality of the nori seaweed and the minced meat (shredded) treatment before preparation, pigments and the like may flow out from the cells and bubbles may be generated.

Therefore, when the transmitted light amount of the seaweed raw material, which is a mixture of seaweed raw algae and water, is measured as in the conventional dried seaweed production system, the transmitted light amount measured due to the influence of pigments and bubbles flowing out from the seaweed raw algae into the water is obtained. There was a risk of error.

If there is an error in the amount of transmitted light of the measured seaweed raw material, the control in the dried seaweed production system becomes inappropriate, and it is difficult to stably produce dried seaweed of the desired quality (weight). There was a risk of becoming.

Therefore, in the present invention according to claim 1, the nori making device for making nori dough and the nori dough for dehydrating the nori dough on the transport path of the transport device for circulating and transporting the nori seaweed. A dry seaweed manufacturing system that produces dried seaweed by arranging a dehydrator and a drying device for drying the dehydrated seaweed dough in order, and dehydrating and drying the seaweed dough made into a nori seaweed that is circulated and transported. In the above, a carry-in device for carrying an empty nori seaweed for weight measurement into the transport device is provided on the upstream side of the nori making device on the transport path, and the nori dough is provided on the downstream side of the dehydration device on the transport path with the nori dough. A carry-out device is provided to carry out the nori seaweed for weight measurement from the transport device, and a weight-measuring device for measuring the weight of the nori dough and the nori seaweed for weight measurement is provided in the carry-out device, and the carry- in device is circulated and conveyed. We decided to carry the Nori seaweed for weight measurement into the upper part of the Nori seaweed, and to carry out only the Nori seaweed for weight measurement from the Nori seaweed that is circulated and transported .

Then, in the present invention, the effects described below are obtained.

That is, in the present invention, on the transport path of the transport device for circulating and transporting the nori seaweed, a drafting device for making nori dough, a dehydrating device for dehydrating the nori dough, and the like. In a dry seaweed production system that produces dried seaweed by dehydrating and drying the seaweed dough made into a nori seaweed that is circulated and transported by arranging a drying device for drying the dehydrated seaweed dough in order, a transport route. A carry-in device was provided on the upstream side of the above-mentioned nori making device to carry an empty nori seaweed for weight measurement into the transport device, and a nori dough was made on the downstream side of the dehydration device on the transport path. Since we have decided to install a carry-out device to carry out the nori seaweed for weight measurement from the transport device, and to equip the carry-out device with a weight measuring device to measure the weight of the seaweed dough and the nori seaweed for weight measurement, from the seaweed raw algae to water. The original weight of the seaweed dough can be accurately measured without being affected by the outflow of pigments and bubbles, and dried seaweed of a desired quality (weight) can be stably produced.

In particular, if it is decided to carry the Nori seaweed for weight measurement onto the upper part of the Nori seaweed that is circulated and transported, and to carry out only the Nori seaweed for weight measurement from the Nori seaweed that is circulated and transported, it will be dried during the production of dried Nori seaweed.
