Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a bread kneader for kneading bread ingredients, which is used, for example, when baking bread at home.

Bread ingredients such as flour, yeast, a small amount of butter, and sugar are placed in an ingredient container along with water, and the ingredients are kneaded to make bread dough, which is fermented and then baked to obtain bread. In conventional bread kneaders for kneading bread ingredients, a rotating spatula is rotated by a motor within an ingredient container, and kneading is performed only with the rotating spatula. For this reason, it was necessary to rotate at a high speed of, for example, 750 revolutions per minute. Such high-speed rotation generates large noise and vibrations. For example, in order for bread to be baked at 7 a.m., it is necessary to knead the bread ingredients at 3 or 4 a.m., which creates a lot of noise and vibration in the home during the night. I don't like that.

From this point of view, we have proposed a bread kneader that can sufficiently knead bread ingredients even at 200 to 300 revolutions per minute by arranging a fixed rod near the rotating spatula. That is, as shown in FIG.
A hole is formed substantially in the center of the bottom plate 11a of the material container 11, and the rotating shaft 12 is vertically inserted from the bottom of the material container 11 through this hole. The material container 11 is a fixture 13
is removably attached to the mounting plate 14, and a pulley 15 is mounted on the rotating shaft 12 under the mounting plate 14.
is attached, and the pulley 15 is rotated via a belt by a motor (not shown).

One end of the rotating spatula 16 is attached to the inner end of the rotating shaft 12 at a substantially right angle thereto in the material container 11, close to the bottom plate 11a thereof. The rotating spatula 16
A fixing rod 17 is arranged in the material container 11 in close proximity to the rotation circle of. In the figure, the fixing rod 17 is attached above the rotary spatula 16 so as to be freely removable from the side wall of the material container 11 through a threaded sleeve 18.
The fixed rod 17 is substantially parallel to the rotation circle of the rotary spatula 16 and extends to near the center thereof.

When the rotating spatula 16 is rotated, the material in the material container 11 is rotated, and at that time, the material collides with the fixed rod 17, and the material is kneaded by the rotating spatula 16 and the fixed rod 17. It is possible to knead the material sufficiently without rotating it at a high speed as compared to conventional products. However, as the ingredients are being kneaded, the flour gradually clumps up and becomes sticky, and in some cases, as shown in FIG. As time goes on, it may stop falling and the rotating spatula 16 may come to rotate around the underside.

In view of the above, the purpose of this invention is to provide a bread kneader that rotates a rotary spatula at a low speed and that can consistently knead bread dough well.

According to this invention, means for dropping dough entangled with the fixing rod and the side wall of the material container are attached to the rotating shaft.

For example, as shown in FIG. 3 in which parts corresponding to those in FIG. That is, this is a case where the projection 21 is attached to the rotating shaft 12 via the rotating spatula 16 as a dropping means. While kneading the bread material, it becomes sticky and the bread dough 19 becomes entangled with the fixing rod 17 and the side wall of the material container 11 at the same time.As shown in FIG. The protrusion 21 on the rotating spatula 16 pushes the dough 19 entangled with the dough, and the bread dough 19 is rotated as shown by the arrow around the fixed rod 17. The bread dough 19 is dropped onto the rotating spatula 16, and the rotating spatula 16 Knead the dough 19 without turning. In other words, the protrusion 21 fixes the rod 1
The rotary spatula 16 and the fixed rod 17 work together to knead the bread dough while dropping the bread dough 19 entangled with the bread dough 7. For this reason, the bread dough is always kneaded well.

In order to drop the bread dough that is tangled with the fixing rod and the side wall of the material container 11 at the same time, use the protrusion 21.
For example, as shown in FIG.
The protrusion 21 may be made to protrude from the second fixing rod 17 side. Furthermore, as shown by dotted lines in FIGS. 3 and 5, by providing a protrusion 23 on the rotating spatula 16 or the thin plate 22 on the same side as the protrusion 21 at a distance, the entangled bread dough 19 can be removed more effectively. You can also.

Furthermore, as a means for removing entangled bread dough, in addition to the protrusion, for example, as shown in FIG. . It is easy to understand that this dropping spatula 24 operates to drop the bread dough 19 entangled with the fixed rod 17. As shown in FIG. 7, the rotary spatula 16 and the dropping spatula 24 may be extended to the same side so that kneading the dough and dropping it from the fixed rod 17 can be performed simultaneously.

In addition to providing the fixing rod 17 at one location, for example, as shown by the dotted line in FIG. The kneading effect can also be improved by dividing the dough into two parts (or more than one part) and kneading the dough.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] In a bread kneader that puts bread ingredients into an ingredient container and kneads the ingredients, a rotating shaft is inserted into the ingredient container, a rotating spatula is attached to the inner end of the rotating shaft, and the rotating circle of the rotating spatula and A fixing rod proximate and extending in the radial direction of its rotation circle is provided in the material container and is attached to the rotating shaft, so that rotation of the rotating shaft causes the fixing rod to approach the upper or lower side of the fixed rod. A bread kneader that is provided with a falling means for dropping the dough that has become entangled in the fixed rod through which it passes.
