In addition, the present invention can provide cost reduction and a deeper taste of red pepper powder by using both the peel and seeds obtained by aging the dried red pepper at low temperature for the production of red pepper powder.

The effects of the present invention are not limited to those mentioned above, and other problems that are not mentioned will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the following description.

1 is a view showing each configuration constituting the system for producing red pepper powder according to the present invention.
2 is a view showing a conventional red pepper powder manufacturing apparatus.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In describing the present invention, when it is determined that a detailed description of a related known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, a detailed description thereof will be omitted. In addition, terms to be described later are terms defined in consideration of functions in the present invention, which may vary according to intentions or precedents of users or operators. Therefore, the definition should be made based on the contents throughout this specification.

1 is a view showing each configuration constituting the sanitary pepper powder manufacturing system according to the present invention.

Referring to Figure 1, the sanitary pepper powder manufacturing system according to the present invention is a maturation chamber 10 for aging dried peppers with a spigot removed, a selection belt provided to sort foreign substances in a state in which the dried dried peppers are transported, and the The lamp 21 is disposed on the sorting belt to provide light necessary for sorting, the air cleaning means for removing foreign matters from the surface of the dried peppers for which foreign matter has been sorted, and the peel and seeds by cutting the dried peppers that have been air-washed. The ultrasonic wave machine 40 to separate the skin, the skin stirring container 45a and the seed stirring container 45b for stirring each of the skin and seeds, and a mixture of the stirred skin and seeds in a predetermined ratio are sequentially pulverized. A plurality of roll mill grinders 50, a particle sorting network 55 for sorting pulverized red pepper powder below a standard particle size, a metal remover 60 for removing metal components from red pepper powder selected below a standard particle size, and a metal remover ( A vibration plate 65 provided to select foreign substances by vibrating the red pepper powder passed through 60), a sterilizing means for sterilizing red pepper powder, a metal detector 80 for detecting the presence or absence of metal components contained in the sterilized red pepper powder, It may include a packaging means for measuring the red pepper powder and putting it into the packaging paper.

First, the dried pepper, which is the raw material from which the spigot has been removed, is subjected to a stocking inspection for properties, color, moisture content, dropping seeds, whether the spigot is removed, whether foreign substances, residual pesticides, packaging conditions, contents, labeling information, etc., and then in the aging room (10). It is aged at low temperature.

In the aging room 10, the dried pepper is aged at a low temperature for 3 to 6 months, and since it is aged at a low temperature of 10±1° C., the propagation of harmful microorganisms is suppressed.

In this process, it was confirmed that beneficial lactic acid bacteria can be fermented to provide the deep taste of red pepper powder.

The process of sorting pepper stems or other foreign substances is performed by a sorting operator by sorting by the sorting belt 20, and the belt speed is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the belt speed according to the number of sorting workers. For example, if there is one worker, the selection belt is controlled at a speed of 3 to 4 m/sec, and if there are two workers, it is controlled more quickly at a speed of 3 to 5 m/sec.

Since the screening process is performed by visual screening by the operator, the influence of the illuminance is large, and the minimum illuminance of the lamp 21 is preferably 540Lux. As a result of the experiment, it was difficult to check visually when it was less than 540 Lux, and it was uneconomical due to high power consumption above that.

The air cleaning process is a process of removing dust or contaminants from the dried pepper surface through an air cleaning means.

The air cleaning means may include a rotating cylinder 30, an air supply pipe 31 therein, and a dust collector 35.

The rotating cylinder 30 is provided with a transfer screw on the inner circumferential surface and may be made of a mesh material, and serves to transfer the dried pepper while rotating.

On the other hand, when a predetermined vibration is provided from the sorting belt 20 just before air cleaning, air cleaning efficiency can be further increased.

The air supply pipe 31 is inserted into the rotating cylinder 30 and provided with a plurality of air injection nozzles 31a to inject air to the dried peppers accommodated in the rotating cylinder 30.

The dust collector 35 serves to suck the desorbed foreign matter by spraying air to the dried pepper rotated in the rotating cylinder 30.

On the other hand, the dried peppers moving in the step just before air cleaning are in a state where foreign matters on the surface are easily separated when a predetermined vibration is provided to the sorting belt 20, so that air cleaning efficiency can be further improved.

When the air cleaning is completed, the process of cutting the dried pepper is performed by the microwave machine 40, which is provided with a spiral blade on the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical cutter 41 that separates the dried pepper into skin and seeds. And, the separated pericarp, a seed separating net 43 that allows only seeds to pass through the seeds, a pericarp stirring container 45a for stirring the separated pericaps, and a seed stirring container 45b for stirring the separated seeds ) Can be illustrated.

Peel and seed are separated and stirred, then mixed and pulverized again. The reason is to match the mixing ratio of peel and seed according to the characteristics of the product.

The skin and seeds are mixed at a predetermined mixing ratio, and then supplied to a roll mill pulverizer 50 to perform a pulverization process.

Each roll mill grinder 50 is composed of a pair of rotating rollers, which are pressed and pulverized by passing a mixture of skin and seeds between the rollers.

And since the plurality of roll mill grinders 50 are arranged vertically, for example, the red pepper powder pulverized through the upper roll mill grinder 50a is supplied to the lower roll mill grinder 50b by its own weight. For example, if six roll mill grinders (50:50a, 50b, 50c, 50d, 50e, 50f) are arranged vertically, they are evenly pulverized step by step while passing through the first to sixth roll mills in sequence.

On the other hand, it is preferable that the surface of the roll mill pulverizer 50 is coated with graphene, because red pepper powder can be prevented from being stuck between the roll mill pulverizer 50 or sticking to the surface. This is because the graphene coating 41 has excellent heat dissipation effect, so that the rollers of the roll mill pulverizer 50 do not overheat beyond 60°C.

When the pulverization is completed, the pulverized red pepper powder is passed through the vibrating particle sorting network 55 to sort the pulverized red pepper powder below the standard particle size, and the red pepper powder exceeding the standard particle size is input to the fourth roll mill 50 through a U-turn tube and re-crushed. do. The particle screening network 55 may be of 6 to 32 meshes, but an appropriate size may be applied according to the demand of the consumer.

It is preferable that the particle sorting net 55 is coated with graphene to prevent the adsorbing of red pepper powder on the surface of the net through a lubricating action.

In addition, the graphene coating 41 may be applied to all components in the red pepper powder manufacturing process, and liquid silver nano may be coated in parallel in order to further provide antibacterial properties.

When the particle sorting of the particle screening network is completed, the metal detection process is continuously performed through the metal remover 60, and the metal remover 60 is a cylindrical drum type metal remover 60 in which a plurality of magnetic rods 61 are installed in the circumferential direction. ) Or it may be illustrated that it is a rotary metal remover 60 that rotates the plurality of magnetic rods 61 in a state in which the red pepper powder is accommodated in the container. In addition, each magnetic rod 61 is preferably 8,000 gauss or more, because if it is less than that, the metal removal efficiency decreases, and if it is more than that, the economical efficiency decreases.

When red pepper powder is supplied to the rotating cylindrical drum-type metal detector 80, the metal components contained in the red pepper powder are attached to the surface and can be removed.

When the metal removal process is completed, the foreign material sorting process by the naked eye of the operator is performed once again, and the foreign material sorting process is performed on the vibration plate 65 in which the vibrator 66 is installed. When the vibrating plate 65 vibrates, the transported red pepper powder is unfolded and the foreign matter is easily exposed, and the operator discovers and removes the foreign matter.

The sterilization process is carried out next to the foreign substance selection process, and the sterilization means is composed of a stirring sterilization container 71 for stirring red pepper powder and an ultraviolet lamp 70 for irradiating ultraviolet rays into the stirring sterilization container 71, or It may be exemplified that it is composed of a cylindrical rotating sterilization container 73 provided with a transfer screw on the inner circumferential surface to be stirred and conveyed, and an ultraviolet lamp 70 inserted into the rotating sterilizing container 73. The ultraviolet sterilization effect can be maximized because the red pepper powder is evenly exposed to ultraviolet rays during the stirring or rotation process by arranging the ultraviolet sterilization lamp with stirring of the fine red pepper powder.

It can be illustrated that the wavelength of the UV lamp is 253.7mm, and the stirring sterilization container 71 sterilizes for 10 to 15 minutes, and the rotary sterilization container 73 sterilizes for 3 to 4 minutes to photo-oxidate the DNA of harmful bacteria. Can be controlled.

By controlling the biological hazards during sterilization by the ultraviolet lamp 70, it is possible to meet the HACCP criteria as shown in Table 1 below.

Biological hazards under HACCP standards management level Clostridium perfringens 100 CFU/g or less Bacillus cereus 10,000 CFU/g or less Colon bactrium n=5, c=2, m=0, M=10 Listeria monocytogenes voice Intestinal hemorrhagic Escherichia coli voice Salmonella spp. voice Staphylococcus aureus voice

In addition, when the ultraviolet sterilization process is completed, the presence of a metal component is detected and detected using the metal detector 80. This helps ensure the complete removal of metal from the final product.

Finally, the red pepper powder is measured and put into the packaging and then sealed to complete the production of red pepper powder.The inner surface of the packaging used at this time is coated with graphene 41 to prevent moisture from permeating to improve antioxidant or antibacterial properties, and to prevent deterioration during long-term storage. So that it is not possible to significantly improve storage or storage properties.

Sanitary red pepper powder manufactured through such a process is inspected for biological, chemical, and physical items in Tables 2 to 4 below and shipped if it meets the standards. As a result of the experiment, the red pepper powder manufactured according to the sanitary red pepper powder manufacturing system according to the present invention was confirmed to be a sanitary red pepper powder that satisfies all inspection criteria above the HACCP standard as follows.
