Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a measuring device for buckwheat soup, which allows the desired amount of buckwheat soup stored in a tank to be accurately measured and taken out, and each part can be disassembled. The system is designed to facilitate cleaning of each part, and will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The buckwheat soup measuring device according to this invention consists of two upper and lower housings 1 and 2 that are placed one above the other and assembled together. The upper housing 1 has a rectangular box shape with an open front, and as shown in FIG. 2, measuring chambers 3 and 4 divided into upper and lower halves are disposed inside. The measuring chambers 3 and 4 are connected to each other by a latch 5, and both chambers are sealed with a gasket 6. In the connected state, one measuring space 7 is formed inside the measuring chambers 3 and 4. A valve guide cylinder 8 hangs downward from the upper metering chamber 3, and its lower end terminates above the lower surface of the lower metering chamber 4. An inlet 9 is opened aligned with the center of the upper end of the valve guide tube 8, and an outlet 10 is opened aligned with the center of the lower end. A buckwheat soup tank 11 is attached integrally or separately to the upper part of the upper measuring chamber 3 in a liquid-tight manner, and the lower part of the tank 11 communicates with the inflow port 9. The tank 11 passes through the upper housing 1 and extends upward. A top lid 12 for opening and closing the top opening is detachably attached to the top of the tank 11 with a latch 13.

Inside the valve guide cylinder 8, an inlet 9 and an outlet 10 are provided.
Two valve bodies 14a and 14b, which open and close reciprocally, are attached to one valve stem 15 with an interval in the vertical direction, and the valve stem 15 extends upward inside the tank 11, It reaches the electromagnetic coil 16 disposed above. The valve rod 15 is constantly raised by the attraction of the magnetic coil 16 to close the inlet 9. When the electromagnetic coil 16 is released from adsorption, it descends under the tension of the spring 17 to open the inlet 9 and close the outlet 10. Electromagnetic coil 16
The inlet 9 is opened for a set time, and buckwheat soup flows from the tank 11 into the measuring space 7, allowing an arbitrary amount of buckwheat soup to be measured. When the set time of the electromagnetic coil 16 has elapsed, the valve stem 15 rises again, the inlet 9 is closed, and the outlet 10 is opened, so that the measured soba soup is discharged from the metering space 7. For this purpose, a discharge pipe 18 having a tapered upper end is removably attached to the lower surface of the lower metering chamber 4 in alignment with the outlet 10. The discharge pipe 18 is slightly inclined upward in the middle to improve liquid drainage. At the tip of the discharge pipe 18 is a soba soup container 1.
9 is placed. The soba soup container 19 is the upper housing 1
Insert and remove from the front.

An air bleed pipe 20 that opens into the measuring space 7 is installed in the tank 11, and a float valve 21 is installed at the lower end of the air bleed pipe 20. This prevents inaccuracies. Reference numeral 22 denotes a liquid level detection control device that is suspended from the upper lid 12 into the tank 11, and adjusts the liquid level in the tank 11 to a constant height.

As shown in FIG. 3, a soba soup storage tank 23 is disposed inside the lower housing 2, and cooling air sent from a cooling device 24 through a pipe 25 is supplied to the upper surface of the tank 23 by a fan 26. The stored soba soup is constantly cooled. Reference numeral 27 denotes a pump that feeds buckwheat soup from the storage tank 23 to the tank 11 via a feed pipe 28. The feeding of buckwheat soup by the pump 27 is controlled by the liquid level detection control device 22.

As described above, according to the buckwheat soup measuring device of this invention, the measuring chamber is divided into two parts 3 and 4, which are detachably connected with the latch 5.
Measuring chambers 3 and 4 can be easily opened by removing the latch 5.
By adjusting the setting time of the electromagnetic coil 16, the inside of the tank 1 can be cleaned.
1 to easily measure the amount of buckwheat soup flowing into the measuring space 7. Furthermore, because of the float valve 21 attached to the air vent pipe 20 in the measuring space 7, there is no fear that buckwheat soup will flow into the air vent pipe 20 and the measurement will become inaccurate.
In addition, the discharge pipe 18 connected to the outlet 10 of the measuring space 7 has an upwardly slanted coating to ensure good liquid drainage, so buckwheat soup will not drip from the discharge pipe 18 forever, ensuring hygiene. It has the effect of being able to hold the material.
