최근에는 전 세계의 20억 인구가 영양실조로 고통받고 있다. 이러한 식량난은 2050년까지 두배 가량 증가할 것으로 보여지고 있고 세계의 인구가 90억명에 육박한다고 나타나 있다. 인구증가의 97%는 빈곤한 상황이 될 것이라는 전망으로 빈곤, 식량 공급의 불안정 및 영양실조의 주요 원인은 빈약한 농업 생산량과 지구 온난화를 통해 상기 농업 생산량은 더욱더 저하되고 있는 실정으로 이러한 문제점에 대하여 유엔식량농업기구에서 내놓은 대안으로는 곤충을 제시하고 있다. 이러한 곤충 중에서 귀뚜라미는 단백질 함량이 높아 아주 귀중한 식용 소재로 활용한다. 또한, 귀뚜라미는 동, 식물의 먹이 또는 사람이 식용할 수 있도록 사육하고 있는 실정으로 최근에는 곤충을 이용한 단백질 과자가 건강식품 업계에 주목받고 있는 바, 귀뚜라미의 경우 새로운 단백질의 공급원으로 각광받고 있다. 이는 귀뚜라미 칩, 귀뚜라미 과자, 귀뚜라미 가루로 만든 사탕 등으로 만들어지고 있고, 밀웜은 단백질 함량이 높아 아주 귀중한 식용 소재로 활용되는 것으로 동, 식물의 먹이 또는 사람이 식용 할 수 있도록 사육하고 있는 실정이다.(인용 등록번호 10-1695548호, 여기서 곤충의 청결과 사육 상태로 발생하는 배설물, 먹이 등으로부터 손쉽게 분류할 수 있어야 하는 문제가 있다 하여 선별기를 수록하고 있다. Recently, 2 billion people around the world suffer from malnutrition. The food shortage is expected to double by 2050 and the world population is approaching 9 billion. 97% of the population growth is expected to be a poverty situation. The main causes of poverty, instability of food supply and malnutrition are due to poor agricultural production and global warming, and the agricultural output is declining further. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization presents insects as an alternative. Of these insects, crickets have high protein content and are used as valuable precious materials. In addition, crickets are being cultivated so that they can be eaten by people, plants, or people. Recently, protein sweets using insects have attracted attention in the health food industry, and crickets are attracting attention as a new protein source. It is made of cricket chips, cricket candy, and cricket powder candy. The wheat worm is used as a very valuable food material because of its high protein content. (Citation no. 10-1695548), where there is a problem that should be able to be easily classified from the excrement and food that occurs in the cleanliness and breeding condition of insects .

상기 세척기(20) 내에 일측이 수요되고 타측은 상부로 세워져 상기 세척기(20) 내의 곤충을 퍼올릴 수 있도록 용기(31)가 컨베이어벨트(32)의 길이방향에 부착된One side is required in the washing machine 20 and the other side is set up in the upper part so that the container 31 is attached to the longitudinal direction of the conveyor belt 32 so that the insect in the washing machine 20 can be pumped up.

이송컨베이어(30).Conveying conveyor (30).

상기 이송컨베이어(30)로부터 곤충을 이어받아 수평으로 이송하는 수평이송컨베이어(40).A horizontal conveying conveyor 40 for conveying the insects from the conveying conveyor 30 horizontally.

상기 수평이송컨베이어(40)의 길이방향 전방 상단에는 상기At the upper end in the longitudinal direction of the horizontal conveying conveyor 40,

수평이송컨베이어(40)에 의해 이송되는 곤충을 향해 스팀을 분사하는 스팀장치(50)가 설치되고 상기 수평이송컨베이어(40) 후방 상단에 상기 스팀장치(50)를 경유하여 이송되어 오는 곤충을 커버하여 일정 시간 동안 진공 건조하는 진공건조기(60)를 포함한 구성이다.A steam device 50 for spraying steam toward an insect conveyed by the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 is installed and the insect conveyed via the steam device 50 to the rear upper end of the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 And a vacuum dryer (60) for vacuum drying for a predetermined period of time.

이와 같은 구성의 실시예를 설명하면 다음과 같다.An embodiment of such a construction will be described as follows.

선별기(10)에 곤충을 투입하면 곤충에 뒤섞인 이물질이 골라져 이어지는 세척기(20)로 낙하하여 투입된다.When an insect is put into the sorting machine 10, foreign substances mixed with insects are picked up and fall into the succeeding washing machine 20 to be introduced.

그러면 세척기(20)는 세척기에 충전된 물과 함께 교반기(미도시)가 교반하면서 세척되는데 세척과정에 이물질이 혼합된 탁한 물을 세척기 상단으로 넣어 세척기 외부로 배출된다.Then, the washer 20 is washed while stirring the agitator (not shown) together with the water filled in the washer. In the washing process, the distilled water mixed with the foreign substances is discharged to the outside of the washer.

그 다음 설정된 시간에 따라 세척이 완료된 곤충은 이송컨베이어(30)가 동작하고 그로 인해 컨베이어벨트(32)가 회전함으로 상기 컨베이어벨트(32)에 부착된 용기가 곤충에 파묻혀 있어 그 곤충이 용기에 담아진다.The insect which has been cleaned according to the set time is operated by the conveying conveyor 30 and consequently the conveyor belt 32 is rotated so that the container attached to the conveyor belt 32 is buried in the insect, Loses.

그 용기에 담아진 곤충은 컨베이어벨트의 회동에 따라 이송되어 수평이송컨베이어(40)에 투척한다. The insects contained in the container are transported in accordance with the rotation of the conveyor belt and thrown to the horizontal conveying conveyor 40.

이 투척으로 수평이송컨베이어(40)는 곤충을 이어받아 수평으로 이동시키는 과정에 In this throwing process, the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 takes the insects and moves them horizontally

스팀장치(50)에 이르게 되면 설정시간에 따라 수평이송컨베이어(40)를 중지하고 When reaching the steam device 50, the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 is stopped according to the set time

도시한 도 1의 상태에서 제 3도와 같이 스팀장치(50)의 덮개(51)를 이용하여 곤충을 덮은 다음 스팀을 상기 덮개(51) 내부로 분사시켜 곤충을 찐다.In the state of FIG. 1, the cover 51 of the steam unit 50 is used to cover the insect and the steam is sprayed into the cover 51 to steam the insect.

그 후 설정시간에 따라 덮고 있는 덮개(51)를 실린더(52)에 의해 승강시킨 다음 Thereafter, the lid 51 which is covered in accordance with the set time is lifted by the cylinder 52

수평이송컨베이어(40)를 동작시켜 쪄진 곤충을 진공건조기에 이르게 하면 진공건조기(60)가 하강하여 곤충을 덮은 다음 열이나 원적외선램프에 발광시키거나 마이크로웨이브를 이용하여 건조한다. 이 건조과정에서 수평이송컨베이어(40)는 정지시킨다.When the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 is operated to bring the insect entrained to the vacuum dryer, the vacuum dryer 60 descends to cover the insect and then emits light to the heat or the far-infrared lamp, or it is dried using a microwave. In this drying process, the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 is stopped.

다음 구성을 살펴보면 다음과 같다.The following configuration is as follows.

상기 수평이송컨베이어(40)의 벨트(41)의 길이방향에 각각 일정간격으로 이격된 복수의 제2용기(70)를 부착시켜 상기 이송컨베이어(30)에 부착한 용기(31)로부터 곤충은 유입받도록 구성함을 특징으로 한다.A plurality of second containers 70 spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance in the longitudinal direction of the belt 41 of the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 are attached to the conveying conveyor 30 to insect the insect from the container 31 attached to the conveying conveyor 30, And receives the information.

이와 같은 구성의 실시예를 살펴보면 다음과 같다.An embodiment of such a configuration will be described below.

용기(31)에 수용된 곤충을 제2용기(70)에 정확하게 투척하기 위해서는In order to accurately throw insects contained in the container 31 into the second container 70

이처럼 제2용기(70)에 곤충이 수용되면 곤충의 찜과 건조가 용이하다.When the insect is contained in the second container 70, it is easy to steam and dry the insect.

다음 구성을 설명하면 다음과 같다.The following configuration will be described as follows.

제2용기(70) 내부 중앙에 고정한 힌지축(71)에 거름망형태의 원형판(72)을 헛돌도록 지지하고, 스팀장치(50)와 진공건조기(60) 사이에 해당하는 A circular plate 72 in the form of a sieve net is supported on the hinge shaft 71 fixed to the center of the interior of the second container 70 so as to be rotatable between the steam device 50 and the vacuum dryer 60

수평이송컨베이어(40) 상측에 회전모터(90)를 설치하여 회전모터(90)에 의해 회전하는 회전축에 상기 원형판(72)을 커버하는 커버부(92)를 연결한 상태에서 A rotary motor 90 is provided above the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 and a cover portion 92 covering the circular plate 72 is connected to a rotary shaft rotated by the rotary motor 90

수평이송컨베이어(40)의 이동으로 제2용기(70)가 스팀장치(50)를 경유한 후 상기 제2용기(70)의 중앙이 상기 회전축(71)에 이르게 되면 If the center of the second container 70 reaches the rotary shaft 71 after the second container 70 has passed the steam device 50 by the movement of the horizontal conveying conveyor 40

상기 수평이송컨베이어(40)의 이동을 중지하고 상기 회전모터(90)의 회전축(91)에 결합된 커버부(92)를 회전하면서 동시에 하강시켜 원형판(72)을 커버하면서 압박하여 상기 원형판(72)을 회전시켜 상기 원형판(72)에 수용된 곤충의 수분이 탈수하는 구성이다.The movement of the horizontal conveying conveyor 40 is stopped and the cover portion 92 coupled to the rotary shaft 91 of the rotary motor 90 is rotated and simultaneously lowered to cover and cover the circular plate 72, So that the water of the insects contained in the circular plate 72 is dehydrated.

이와 같은 구성의 실시예를 설명하면 다음과 같다.An embodiment of such a construction will be described as follows.

상기처럼 원형판(72)을 회전시켜 곤충에 있는 수분을 탈수하게 되면 진공건조실에서 건조시간이 대폭 단축된다. If the water in the insect is dewatered by rotating the circular plate 72 as described above, the drying time in the vacuum drying chamber is drastically shortened.

다음 구성을 살펴보면 다음과 같다.The following configuration is as follows.

상기 스팀장치(50)와 진공건조기(60) 사이에 해당하는 송풍기(미도시)에 의해 곤충의 수분을 건조하는 송풍장치(100)가 설치되는 구성이다.An air blowing device 100 is installed between the steam device 50 and the vacuum dryer 60 to dry moisture of insects by a corresponding blower (not shown).

이처럼, 송풍장치(100)의 송풍기 바람으로 1차건조함으로 이어지는 진공건조기(60)에서 건조시간을 단축시킬 수 있다.In this way, the drying time can be shortened in the vacuum dryer (60) leading to the primary drying by the fan of the blower (100).
