First, referring to FIG. 10, the rice cake manufacturing method S100 according to the present embodiment includes a raw material pretreatment step S110, a first grinding step S120, a second grinding step S130, and a steaming process. It may be a configuration including the step (S140).

Specifically, the raw material pretreatment step (S110) includes a process of carrying out soaking treatment of the rice cake raw material that has undergone the washing process and removing foreign substances for a predetermined time.

The first milling step (S120), after the first step of crushing the rice cake raw material passed through the raw material pre-treatment step, and includes the step of mixing by adding the brine to the ground raw material. The second milling step (S130), after the raw material that has undergone the first grinding process undergoes a second milling process, includes the step of adding the raw rice wine and sugar to the milled raw material in a predetermined mixing ratio and then mixing.

As shown in Figure 10, the steaming step (S140) for performing the process of steaming the raw material passed through the second grinding process at high temperature and high pressure may be performed. Raw material that passed through the steaming step (S140) may be molded into rice cake through the molding step (S150). Thereafter, the divided rice cake formed in the molding step is cut into a predetermined shape and length, and the divided rice feeding step S160 is performed by dividing the cut rice cake into a predetermined amount.

According to the type of rice cake, as shown in Figure 11, the steaming step (S140) and the molding step (S150) may be performed in a different order.

For example, as rice cake to perform the steaming step (S140) first, sputum rice cake, Songpyeon, Shiru-teok, dumplings, Injeolmi, glutinous rice cake, mugwort rice cake and the like. On the other hand, as the rice cake to perform the forming step (S150) first and then the steaming step (S140), there is a small piece, thickening, snow white, and the like.

Hereinafter, the rice cake manufacturing method S1000 will be described in more detail together with each of the components constituting the rice cake manufacturing apparatus 1000 shown in FIGS. 1 to 9.

The above-mentioned forming step (S150) is a step of discharging the rice cake material into which the forming unit 200 has been put at high temperature and high pressure according to a driving command of the control unit 100 and molding and discharging it into two or more rice cakes. In this case, the operator inputs a driving command by operating the operation panel 110 after the rice cake material is put into the molding unit 200. Therefore, the molding unit 200 cooks the introduced rice cake material at high temperature and high pressure, and then forms the rice cake material through the discharge means 210 and discharges the rice cake material. At this time, the discharged sputum jaw is moved to the cutting unit 300 after passing through the state in which the water supply container 220 is obtained in the water according to the guide of the guide member 222 (see Fig. 2).

As shown in FIG. 2, the cutting unit 300 is driven by the cutting member 340 under the control of the controller 100, and the moving unit 320 is driven to rotate infinitely to the upper surface of the base frame 310. Therefore, the rice cake delivered through the water inlet 220 is moved from the input side of the base frame 310 to the distribution supply unit 400 by the rotation of the moving means 320.

At this time, the injection means 350 is located in at least one of the front and rear of the cutting member 340 to inject water to the moving means (320).

At this time, the rice cake is transported in a state where it is obtained in the first cooling water tank 510 and then upwardly transported on the first inclination frame 512.

Here, the control unit 100 may control to drain or refill the cooling water of the first cooling water tank 510 by receiving the detection signal of the first sensor 530. The first sensor 530 detects at least one of a water level detection, a temperature, and a time after the filling of the first cooling water tank 510. Therefore, the controller 100 compares the set reference and the detection signal to drive the first cooling water supply means 540 to drain the water filled in the first cooling water tank 510 and then fill the first supply tank 550. The prepared water is filled into the first cooling water tank 510.

The second cooling step (S172) is a step of secondly cooling the rice cake first cooled in the first water cooling unit 500 in the second water cooling unit 600. The controller 100 drives the second conveying means 620 and the cold air fan 640 of the second water cooling unit 600 to cool the rice cake obtained through the second cooling water tank 610. The temperature of the second cooling tank 610 is controlled so that the cold air of the cold air fan 640 is applied to maintain the temperature of the second cooling water tank 610 at a low temperature of 5 degrees Celsius to 15 degrees Celsius.

That is, the controller 100 detects a detection signal (for example, at least one of the coolant temperature, the water level, and the water charge time) of the second sensor 630 and the temperature of the coolant is higher than or equal to the set temperature, or after the coolant is filled. It is determined whether the set time has elapsed.

If the temperature of the second coolant tank 610 and the set time after recharging the coolant differ from the set reference, the controller 100 drives the second coolant supply means 650. The second coolant supply means 650 drains the coolant filled in the second coolant tank 610 to the second drain tank 670, and the coolant supplied from the second supply tank 660 to the second coolant tank 610. ).

Here, the first supply tank 550 and the second supply tank 660, the first drain tank 560 and the second drain tank 670 may be the same or separately installed. This corresponds to one of various applications, and is not limited to being installed in a separate configuration as described above.

The third cooling step S173 is a step in which the second-cold rice cake is moved to the air-cooling part 700 to be third-cooled. The air cooling unit 700 drives the third transfer means 720 by the driving of the controller 100 to move the rice cake transferred through the transfer conveyor 750 for a predetermined time as a movement path formed in the freezing housing 710. Cool 3rd.

Here, the air cooling unit 700 corresponds to a tunnel-type cooling device (for example, a refrigerator), and a plurality of rotating belts 722a to 722e rotated in opposite directions so that rice cakes can be moved for a predetermined time from the inside. ) Is laminated in the vertical direction. At this time, the rice cake is cooled while reaching the aging state by moving along a plurality of rotating belts 722a-722e which are moved from left to right, right to left, again from left to right, and right to left inside the air cooling unit 700. do. Preferably, the plurality of rotating belts 722a to 722e may set a distance or pass rate to be passed within a total of 10 minutes to less than 60 minutes.

Preferably, the plurality of rotating belts 722a to 722e are spaced apart from each other to include a divided jaw spaced apart from each other to protrude upwardly.
