Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a mixer for stirring and mixing materials such as fish and meat.
The present invention relates to a material take-out device for taking out a part of the material being stirred and mixed to the outside.

[0002]

For example, in the process of processing block meat into minced meat, after the block meat is processed into flaky meat, the meat quality is homogenized or different substances are obtained in order to obtain a target ingredient. Mixing is often done with a mixer to mix meat and the like. In such a case, it is convenient to be able to sample a part of the materials in order to check the mixing ratio and the degree of mixing of the meat and to analyze the components of the mixed meat. For this reason, temporarily stopping the operation of the entire mixer or sampling a part of the material directly from the hopper is not easy and efficient, and is difficult to sample.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a mixer 6 having a hopper 2 for axially mounting a stirring blade 1 for stirring and mixing the contained materials, and for discharging the mixed material by inversion. The bottom of the hopper-2 is provided with a take-out port 3 for taking out a part of the mixed material, and a spiral cylinder 5 for pushing the mixed material taken out from the take-out port 3 to one side by the rotation of the take-out spiral 4. The material take-out device of the mixer shall be configured.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION For example, when materials such as fish and meat are stirred and mixed, the flake meat is put in the hopper 2 and the stirring blade 1 is rotated to perform stirring and mixing. The flake meat that is stirred by the rotation of the stirring blade 1 is crushed and mixed. When the mixed material is discharged from the hopper 2, it can be received by a lower container, a conveyor or the like by reversing the hopper 2.

In the case of stirring and mixing such materials, when sampling a part of the mixed materials for component analysis and the like, the take-up spiral 4 is rotated so that the stirring blades 1 in the upper hopper 2 can be used. A part of the mixed material that is being agitated and mixed can be taken out of the machine from the take-out port 3 at the bottom through the spiral tube 5.

In this way, the outlet 3 is provided at the bottom of the hopper 2.
Is provided and the spiral cylinder 4 is provided under the outlet 3, and a part of the mixed material can be taken out from the mixed material mixed in the hopper 2. Therefore, the structure is simple and It is not necessary to stop the stirring blade 1 during the extraction or sampling of the mixed material, and the extraction spiral 4 can be used as necessary.
Can be driven to easily and efficiently perform the mixing processing work. Further, sampling and extraction of these mixed materials can be performed easily and safely.

When the outlet 3 is opposed to the outer peripheral surface of the stirring blade 1 as in the embodiment, the rotation of the stirring blade 1 allows the mixed material to be accurately extruded to the outlet 3, and the spiral cylinder Taking out from 5 will be carried out smoothly.

EXAMPLE A mixer for stirring and mixing materials such as fish and meat will be illustrated. The mixer 6 is mainly made of stainless steel,
The hopper 2 can be pivotally supported on the base 7 between a pair of front and rear supporting legs 8 and 9, and can be rotated around the shaft 10 so that the upper opening 11 is turned downward. The hopper 2 has a pair of left and right stirring shafts 12 along the front-rear longitudinal direction that are parallel to each other. The stirring blades 1 are arranged on the stirring shafts 12, and materials such as flakes meat stored in the hopper 2 by this rotation. And stir mix.

A take-out port 3 is opened at the bottom of the hopper 2, and a spiral cylinder 5 having a take-out spiral 4 is detachably attached below the take-out port 3. The take-out port 3 is provided so as to face the lower side of the outer peripheral surface of the stirring blade 1, and is set at a position where it is easily subjected to the pushing action of the material to be stirred and mixed. A mounting seat 13 is formed on the outer periphery of the outlet 3, and the supply port 14 mounting edge portion 15 of the spiral cylinder 5 is superposed on the mounting seat 13 and can be mounted by tightening with a bolt or the like. Further, when disassembling, the spiral cylinder 5 can be easily removed from the hopper 2 by removing this bolt.

The spiral cylinder 5 pushes the mixed material pushed from the upper outlet 3 through the outlet 16 at the tip end by the rotation of the take-out spiral 4 provided inside. A chopper 17 is provided at the extrusion port 16. Chopper 17 is a take-out spiral 4
It comprises a propeller-shaped knife 18 that rotates integrally with the ejector hole disk 20 that is fixed to the spiral cylinder 5 and that has a small extrusion hole 19 that is provided close to the extrusion port 16 side of this knife 18. The mixed material is extruded from each extruding hole 19 as a minced material by the rotation of. A cap 21 is screwed onto the end of the spiral cylinder 9 to prevent the extrusion hole disk 20 from coming off. The shaft 22 of the knife 18 is rotatably fitted in the center of the extrusion hole disk 20.

An electric motor M1 for driving the take-out spiral 4
Is attached to the base side of the spiral cylinder 5 with a coupling 23 interposed, and is interlocked by a coupling shaft 24 rotatably supported in the coupling 23. A bracket 25 is integral with the hopper 2 and supports the coupling 23 by tightening bolts 26. As a result, the spiral cylinder 5 can be attached to and detached from the take-out port 3 part integrally with the motor M1.

A pedestal base 28 is provided on the base 7 with a weight scale 27 composed of a load cell or the like interposed therein. It is possible to weigh the mixed material while constantly measuring the total weight of the hopper 2 and the like housed therein.

The support leg 9 is in the form of a transmission case, and has motors M2 and M3 and a transmission mechanism therein.
By driving 2 the stirring blades 1, 1 in the hopper 2 can be rotated. Reference numeral 29 denotes a transmission gear that transmits each stirring shaft 12, and is installed in the gear case 30. Motor M3
Is rotated around a shaft 10 integrated with the gear case 30 via a worm gear 31 and a worm wheel 32 to reverse the hopper 2 so that the opening 11 faces downward, or the opening 11 faces upward. Can be rotated forward so that From the motor M2 to the gear case 30
The transmission shaft 33 to the internal transmission gear 29 is provided through the hollow portion of the shaft 10.

The stirring shaft 1 is driven by driving the motor M2.
2 is rotated, and materials such as flake meat supplied into the hopper 2 are agitated and mixed by the agitating blade 1. When this stirring and mixing is completed, the mixed material inside can be directly discharged from the opening 11 while the hopper 2 is inverted by driving the motor M3 and the opening 11 is directed downward.

When sampling the mixed material in the hopper 2 during the stirring and mixing operation by the mixer 6, the motor M1 is driven. As a result, the take-out spiral 4 is driven, and the mixed material pushed into the spiral cylinder 5 from the take-out port 3 is extruded toward the chopper 17 side. The material that is finely cut with the extrusion hole disc 20 by the rotation of the knife 18 is extruded as a minced material from each extrusion hole 19 into a bundle of noodles. Sampling can be stopped by stopping the driving of the motor M1.

A cutter may be rotated on the outside of the mouthpiece 21 to cut the minced noodle-like noodle material extruded from the extrusion hole 19 into a predetermined length. Further, the configuration may be such that the mixed material is simply extruded from the spiral cylinder 5 without providing the chopper 17 as described above. At this time, in the illustrated example, the chopper 17 may be removed. Further, a shutter that can be opened and closed between the outlet 3 and the supply port 14 may be provided so that the shutter is opened when the mixed material is taken out from the spiral tube 5.
