Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for drying powdered raw materials in a vending machine that sells food and beverages such as coffee (Revised J8o 7). This is a drying method that takes advantage of the fact that the individual absorbent agent, which determines deliquescent property, absorbs 1J1 of moisture.

It will be destroyed. These self-propelled Cs are suitable for handling heat and temperature, and for treating heat, sugar-based powder raw materials (1) with substances that are relatively easy to absorb moisture (1).
Therefore, it is necessary to be especially careful when drying the powdered raw rice. Tameσ month]
A humidifying device, or a heating device to adjust the temperature of the 131 powder storage tank, etc. is installed (there is 1, but there are 4), and the removal of powder 1st + 1 in the vending machine is a quantitative transfer type. (The ball is suspended in the air and removed from the storage tank by the rotation of the screwball). Because it is close to the outlet where hot water is supplied, it easily absorbs air.It also absorbs moisture from the outside air.Therefore, the powder raw material that has absorbed moisture is easily absorbed by the air. The IJ may adhere to the tip of the powder, or a hanging phenomenon may occur in the powder storage tank, making it impossible to carry out transport. However, when using a 1JR humidifying device, you should pull the water as short as possible when draining moisture, but if you suck in the steam too quickly, it may damage the top of the storage tank. Since the powder raw material is simultaneously sucked, it is impossible to completely prevent moisture absorption in this method.
In the first case using J, if the degree of ffA is too high,
3I storage bamboo soil is not preferred, so it is usually 20-30°C.
It is difficult to completely dry the silk at this temperature.

As mentioned above, in the conventional method, white υ] powder raw material H in the vending machine is
It is difficult to completely prevent moisture absorption.

The present invention provides a novel *2 drying method that improves the above-mentioned points.
This is Jl's drying method.

In this light, J, I will store the moisture absorbing material in the vending machine, in the powder storage tank in 1zf, and in the powder storage tank near the sing ball. Especially when using a deliquescent 11 moisture absorbent such as calcilyl chloride, its effectiveness is particularly evident.

The food and drink vending machines to which the present invention is applied are limited to types (11! .What should Powder Hara 11 do? (

In addition, biorai] ~, activated carbon etc. (when using JF,
In addition to being used as a moisture absorbent, it can also be used as a deodorizing agent.It is also effective for use with insect repellents, YY fragrances, fungicides, etc.

In the method of the present invention, the drug (9) must be stored in at least one place in the food and drink vending machine. The location varies depending on the model of the vending machine, but generally the first
The lower space 1, the inside of the powder storage tank 2, the space near the mixing bowl 3, or the upper space 4 of the vending machine as shown in the figure can be considered, but the space inside the powder storage tank or the space near the mixing ball, etc. , it is preferable to install it in a part close to the powder raw material.

In the present invention, any known method can be used without any particular limitation to store the moisture absorbent in at least one location within the food and drink vending machine. For example, if the vending machine is installed in the lower space of the vending machine, a relatively large amount of moisture absorption will be required, since the moisture inside (not J) will be mixed in from the vending machine's outlet 1, etc. For example, as shown in Fig. 2, UL water permeability 1) part 1 + AJ, 8' containing moisture absorbent 6 is sold as a white product. 1. There is a method to affect the bottom plate-1 within 1.1, father,] Moisture absorbent strips are installed in some spaces or in the space near the me 1 sing ball (in the case of 6, the space is relatively narrow. For this purpose, the moisture absorbent stored in a small container is placed on a nearby stand or tank 1. ;Lllll11
The force and wisdom that hangs over the box near the board or t-a is used. In the Ij method of the present invention, the most effective method for drying the powder material 31 in the vending machine is to use a moisture absorbing agent that has deliquescent properties for 1 minute, as shown in Figure 3. Demonstrated in t! One T prevents leakage of deliquescent liquid! In some cases, the powder is stored in a single container and the container is inserted into a powder storage tank. 1 As shown in FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. To protect the container by means such as folding it, use an outer container F3 made of a porous hard part as shown in Figure 5.

The upper moisture-permeable and water-impermeable member is particularly suitable (although not limited to) for the seam 1 that extends through the fine holes of the rod 1α that exhibit water-impermeability under the working pressure. The size of the pores may generally be 50 μm or less.

The sheet is not particularly limited, but a water-repellent cloth or a stretched sheet of thermoplastic resin containing 35% by weight or more, preferably 40 to 85% by weight of an inorganic filler is preferably used. . Such a stretched sheet 1- is a sheet-like material 19 containing a predetermined amount of inorganic filler in a thermoplastic resin such as polyurethane, polypropylene, etc., polychlorinated beer, polyester, or polyamide. Stretching ratio: 50 to 500%, preferably 200
It is obtained by axial or biaxial stretching in a range of 400%. As the inorganic filler, inorganic fillers such as oxides, hydroxides, salts, etc., such as lucium, magnesium, flumylum, and silicone, whose average particle size is generally about 0.1 to 100 μm, particularly about 0.5 to 120 μm, are used. Compounds are preferably used.

The stretched sheet 1- thus obtained has fine pores and is excellent in moisture permeability and water impermeability. In addition, the wood specification is C sea 1 ~ and (, 1 thickness (Kosekishi - (
