Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[Industrial Field of Application] The present invention is directed to improved means for controlling the amount of noodles produced, such as ``udon'' or ``soba.'' [Prior Art] Conventionally, in this divine noodle making device, 1. For example, “large serving”
- When adjusting the amount of noodles made for processed foods, such as in "Namimori", the supply time of flour and water for kneading is programmed to be constant in advance, and the supply amounts of flour and water for kneading are changed separately. This is done by [Problem M to be solved by the invention] However, in such a conventional noodle production weight control system, the supply amount of flour and the supply amount of water for mixing are measured separately. ”
In this case, the ratio must be adjusted to approximately 10:4, which requires time and effort. In this case, it may be possible to manually adjust the supply amounts of flour and water without actually measuring the amount of flour and water supplied, and without checking the condition of the noodles that have been made to failure. During the preparation, a large amount of flour is wasted. In addition, when the amount of dough is significantly increased, for example when setting "large serving", the capacity of the mixer is constant, so when the amount of flour and water supplied increases, the noodle dough will be processed inside the mixer. There was a problem that clogging easily occurred. [Object 1 of the Invention] An object of the present invention is to
It is possible to easily change and control the production of ff.
The present invention is to provide a so-called device, and the noodle-making control means is configured to set the amount of flour and water to be supplied at a constant rate, and to vary the supply time. [Function] In other words, in the present invention, the amount of flour and water to be mixed per unit time is set constant, and the By changing the supply time, the amount of noodles made for each serving is adjusted and controlled, so there is no need to adjust the supply amount of flour and water separately.
The amount of noodles made for each serving can be automatically and easily changed. [Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention includes a flour storage means, and a method of stirring the flour supplied from the flour storage means with water to form noodle dough in the form of a crumble. a mixing means for mixing, a water supply means for supplying water for mixing to the mixing means, and a noodle-making control means for controlling the supply amount of the flour and water for each serving to make noodles.

is decremented by 1 and stored, and the remaining number of reservations is displayed on the display 102, and at ST3↓, the presence or absence of the "number of reservations for noodle making" is detected. ↓
This can be repeated depending on the number of reservations for each meal. In this case, if the supply amount of flour A is reduced, the amount of noodle dough produced will also decrease, and the length of the noodle strips formed by rolling with the pair of rolling rollers will become shorter. If the rotation time of the rolling roller pair is automatically changed and controlled accordingly, the continuous noodle making time can be shortened. [Effects of the Invention] As is clear from the above explanation, the present invention sets the supply amount of flour and water per unit time constant, and adjusts the amount of fencing for each serving by changing the supply interval. Since it is controlled, it is possible to automatically and easily change the amount of noodles to be made for edible food without having to separately adjust the amounts of flour and kneading water as in the past. As a result, the amount of flour and water supplied to the mixer is always constant, so the mixing state can be stabilized.
