Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an apparatus for distributing rice to a rice cooker for using unwashed rice in a rice cooking plant.

In a conventional rice cooking plant, the distribution of rice to the cooking pot is
A fixed amount of rice is discharged from the rice milling tank by a rotary valve, and the rice is conveyed by a belt conveyor to an automatic continuous rice washer, where it is washed.After soaking for a certain period of time, the rice and water are cooked according to the preset settings using an automatic rice distributing machine. It is supposed to go into the pot.

The rice cooker is then transported by a chain conveyor to a continuous gas rice cooker, where it undergoes a rice cooking process and then steamed for a certain period of time to finish cooking.

In addition, if you do not incorporate a rice washing process into your rice cooking plant and use unwashed rice, the rice is placed in a pot one by one using a rotary valve and soaked. Since the water does not spread sufficiently and it is difficult to soak the rice uniformly, it is necessary to stir the soaked rice or drain it into a colander, which takes time and creates the problem that the water becomes cloudy.

The present invention aims to provide a device in a rice cooking plant that uses unrinsed rice in order to reduce the number of work steps as much as possible, and that distributes the rice to the rice cooker so that the rice is uniformly and sufficiently immersed in water. It is.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

Figures 1 and 2 show the device for distributing rice to the cooking pot of the present invention, in which unwashed rice is put into the input port 4 in fixed amounts from the rice milling tank by a measuring machine, and is passed through the supply path 5. It falls onto the umbrella-shaped first perforated plate 7 in the distribution device 6.

Then, it falls along the umbrella-shaped slope of the first perforated plate 7,
Some of them pass through the holes 8, and some of them fall onto a second perforated plate 9, which is spaced below the edge of the plate and has smaller holes than the first perforated plate, and then Then, it falls through the hole 10 into the cooking pot 11, but at this time, the first perforated plate 7 and the second perforated plate 9 are fixed to the shaft 13 connected to the vibrator 12. When the vibrator 12 is activated, the unrinsed rice first falls little by little due to the vertical vibration of the first umbrella-shaped perforated plate 7, and then falls apart little by little due to the vertical vibration of the second perforated plate 9. It falls into the cooking pot 11.

In addition, 16 is a cover provided with a supply path 5 and an input port 4 and fixed to the shaft 13, and 17 is provided with a largely adjustable vertical position so that the distance between it and the first perforated plate 7 can be changed. This is a flow rate adjustment valve.

Fig. 3 is a diagram showing a rice cooking plant for producing wash-free rice using the device for distributing rice to the rice cooker of the present invention. The water is distributed to the cooking pot 11 via the measuring machine 3 → the input port 4 → the distribution device 6, and a solenoid valve 24 connected to the water supply 23 is operated to pour water into the cooking pot 11 in fixed amounts.

Next, the rice and water in the rice cooker 11 are moved onto a belt conveyor 25 and undergo a soaking process 26 → rice cooking process 27 → steaming process 28, and are loosened by an automatic strainer 29 and placed in a rice bowl 30. The rice cooking plant is completed.

As described above, according to the present invention, completely wash-free rice is used without incorporating a rice washing process into the rice cooking plant, and a certain amount of wash-free rice is transferred between the umbrella-shaped first perforated plate and the first perforated plate. A second perforated plate with a smaller hole than the first perforated plate is provided at intervals on the lower side of the plate.
By vibrating the perforated plate of the rice grains, the rice grains are evenly placed into the rice cooker as if they were being sieved through a sieve, and water is evenly absorbed into the rice grains.There is no need for stirring or draining the rice into a colander. , work efficiency is improved, and no polluted water is produced.
