In the apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention, a pair of

supports

311 and 312 spaced apart from each other is supported by a stirring cylinder 200 having hollow support shafts 207 formed at both side surfaces thereof.

The stirring barrel 200 is formed with an inlet 203 through which fruit is introduced, and a discharge 204 tube through which the concentrated jam is discharged, and a steam storage for storing steam supplied from the outside on the outer circumferential surface thereof. The space portion 201 is formed.

The stirring barrel 200 is provided with an opening and closing lid 210 for opening and closing the inlet 203 of the upper end, the opening and closing lid 210 is to be opened and closed by the opening and closing means.

2 and 4, the opening and closing means is a lever member 211, one end is fixed to the opening and closing lid 210, and the other end of the lever member 211 is fixed and the

support

311, 312 An opening / closing shaft 212 rotatably supported on the shaft, an interlocking lever 213 having one end fixed to the opening and closing shaft 212, and the other end of the interlocking lever 213 are fixed to the cylinder rod and supported by the support 312. And a cylinder 214 which is fixed to the side and hydraulically or pneumatically actuates the cylinder rod.

The opening and closing means is to be opened and closed to the opening and closing lid 210 by the operation of the cylinder 214.

A discharge hose 206 is connected to the opening and closing lid 210, and a vacuum pump (not shown) is connected to the discharge hose 206 to exhaust the inside of the stirring tube 200 by vacuum. The first pressure control valve 210a is provided to maintain a constant vacuum pressure inside the stirring tube 200.

Inside the stirring barrel 200, a stirring blade 202 for stirring the fruit is rotatably provided, the stirring blade 202 is rotatably coupled to the hollow support shaft 207 and the drive motor 209 Is rotated by

A steam supply pipe 201a is connected to the steam storage space 201 to supply steam, and a second pressure control valve 201b is connected to maintain a constant pressure of the supplied steam. A drain 201c for discharging is provided.

In addition, the discharge pipe 204 is provided with a shutoff valve 205 for blocking steam discharge while heating the stirring barrel 200 by the supplied steam.

On the other hand, at the end of the discharge pipe 204 is provided with a fixed amount supply means to fill the container 400 quantitatively concentrated jam.

3 to 6, the quantitative supply means is configured as follows.

The metering supply means is connected to the valve housing 220 formed by opposing the first connecting pipe 221 and the second connecting pipe 222 on both sides of the discharge pipe 204, the valve housing 220 A spherical valve body 223 having a through hole 223a for receiving the concentrated jam falling from the discharge pipe 204 is rotatably received.

The valve body 223 has a first position in which the through hole 223a communicates with the discharge pipe 204 as shown in FIG. 5A, and the through hole 204 as shown in FIG. 5B. It is rotated to the second position in communication with the two connecting pipes (221, 222), the valve body 223 is capable of reciprocating rotation by the rotary cylinder (225).

When the valve body 223 is in the first position as shown in FIG. 5A, the concentrated jam of the stirring tube 200 is dropped and accommodated in the through hole 223a.

The supply cylinder 240 is connected to the first connection pipe 221 to push the jam accommodated in the through hole 223a toward the second connection pipe 222 when the through hole 223a is in the second position. To help. At this time, the piston rod of the supply cylinder 240 may directly enter the through hole 223a to push out the concentrated jam, but by pushing the concentrated jam by the compressed air in the supply cylinder 240 to the inner wall of the through hole 223a. It is desirable to prevent wear and to prevent the incorporation of impurities due to wear.

On the other hand, the filling cylinder 250 is connected to the second connecting pipe 222 is supplied with the concentrated jam introduced from the through hole 223a, the filling cylinder 250 is the inlet port (210) is coupled to the inlet ( 255 is formed.

The device configured as described above operates the cylinder 214 to open and close the lid 210, accommodates the fruit in the stirring vessel 200, closes the lid 20, and operates the driving motor 209. The stirring blade 202 is rotated to stir the received fruit.

At the same time, steam is supplied into the stirring tube 200 at a pressure of about 3 kg / cm 2 through the steam supply pipe 201a, and a vacuum pump (not shown) is operated to exhaust the inside of the stirring tube 200 to a vacuum.

At this time, the moisture in the fruit is discharged through the discharge hose 206 and the stirring tube 200 is vacuumed, thereby lowering the boiling point to enable boiling even at low temperatures and further preventing nutrient destruction of the fruit by indirect heating by steam heating. To minimize browning reactions.

As such, steam generated while being jammed while being heated in a vacuum state is discharged through the discharge hose 206, and the vacuum state of the stirring tube 200 is maintained at a constant pressure by the pressure holding valve 210a. do.

On the other hand, after being concentrated to a certain concentration, the driving of the stirring blade 202 and the vacuum pump is stopped, the supply of steam through the steam supply pipe 201a is stopped, and the drain valve 201c and the steam trap 201b are opened. To discharge condensate and steam.

Subsequently, in a state in which the vacuum state of the stirring tube 200 is released by stopping the vacuum pump, the shutoff valve 205 is opened to allow the concentrated jam of the stirring tube 200 to be discharged through the discharge pipe 204. .

In this case, as shown in FIG. 5A, the valve body 223 is positioned at the first position so that the concentrated jam falling from the stirring tube 200 is accommodated in the through hole 223a.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 5B, the valve body 223 is rotated by 90 degrees by the rotation cylinder 225 so that the through hole 223a connects the first and

second connection pipes

221 and 222. Located in a second position to the jam is accommodated in the through-hole 223a by the supply cylinder 240 is supplied to the filling cylinder 250 through the second connecting pipe 222, the filling cylinder 250 By the operation of the filling in the container 400 through the inlet 255.

At this time, the concentrated jam is pushed out by the compressed air in the supply cylinder 240 to prevent abrasion of the inner wall of the through hole 223a and to prevent impurities from being mixed.

Meanwhile, the jam introduced into the through hole 223a is filled into the container 400 several times according to the capacity of the container 400.

As a result, by preparing the fruit in the agitation vessel 200 and filling the container 400 immediately, the jam is prevented from being deteriorated and the filling operation in the container 400 is made simple and quantitatively filled.

The present invention jam preparation and filling device is to heat the steam in a vacuum state to concentrate the fruit to minimize the color, nutrients, and the like to produce jams, minimizing the change in the color change of the browning of the prepared jam in the container automatically quantitatively Do it.
