物料存储装置及烹饪器具
本申请要求于2018年9月28日提交中国专利局、申请号为201821586750.1、发明名称为“物料存储装置及烹饪器具”和于2018年9月30日提交中国专利局、申请号为201821615677.6、发明名称为“物料存储装置及烹饪器具”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及厨房电器技术领域,具体而言,涉及一种物料存储装置及包含该物料存储装置的烹饪器具。
背景技术
目前,有些物料存储装置,在储料箱底部设有推送螺杆,来提高排料速度,并将储料箱边缘部位的物料推送至排料口处排出,以防止边缘部位的物料长时间得不到更新而发生霉变。但是,这也导致储料箱内各个部位的下料速度不等,下料均匀性差,易出现物料不平整的现象,致使不能通过传感器精准判断储料箱内的实时物料量。
发明内容
为了解决上述技术问题至少之一,本申请的一个目的在于提供一种物料存储装置。
本申请的另一个目的在于提供一种包括上述物料存储装置的烹饪器具。
为了实现上述目的,本申请第一方面的技术方案提供了一种物料存储装置,包括:储料箱,其底部开设有用于输出物料的排料口;推送螺杆,位于所述储料箱的底部,且其出料部位临近所述排料口,能够在旋转时沿其轴向将物料推送至所述排料口处;防堵罩,安装在所述储料箱内,并罩设在所述推送螺 杆的上方,且所述防堵罩与所述储料箱的内壁面之间限定有供所述物料通过的过料间隙;其中,沿所述推送螺杆的送料方向,所述过料间隙与所述推送螺杆相对应的部分包括第一间隙过料段和一端与所述第一间隙过料段相连的第二间隙过料段,且所述第一间隙过料段的宽度小于所述第二间隙过料段的宽度。
本申请第一方面的技术方案提供的物料存储装置,通过设置防堵罩,利用防堵罩与储料箱的内壁面之间的过料间隙来对大颗粒物料进行过滤,从而能够防止大颗粒粮食误入导致输料管堵塞或者卡机现象;同时,通过合理设置过料间隙的宽度,还能够调节储料箱内各个部位的下料量,进而控制储料箱各个部位的下料速度,使各个部位的下料速度趋于一致,进而使得储料箱内的物料趋于平整,从而提高了通过传感器来检测储料箱内的实时物料量的准确度。
具体而言,由于储料箱内的物料需经过过料间隙到达防堵罩下方,进而在推送螺杆的推送下到达排料口处排出,因而过料间隙在各个部位的宽度影响着各个部位的下料量,宽度越大,该部位的下料量越多,下料速度越快,反之,宽度越小,该部位的下料量越少,下料速度越小。由于推送螺杆工作时,会沿其轴向将物料向排料口处推送,即:第一间隙过料段的物料会被搬运至第二间隙过料段处,然后通过排料口排出,因而第一间隙过料段处的物料只能由其上方的物料落下进行补充,而第二间隙过料段处的物料会有第一间隙过料段横向输送过来的物料进行补充,因此,在间隙宽度相等的情况下,第一间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度会大于第二间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度,导致推送螺杆上方区域下料不均,物料不平整。因此,使第一间隙过料段的宽度小于第二间隙过料段的宽度,能够适当减小第一间隙过料段所在位置的下料量,进而使第一间隙过料段所在位置处的下料速度与第二间隙过料段所在位置处的下料速度趋于相等,有效提高推送螺杆上方区域的下料均匀性,有利于实现通过传感器精准判断储料箱内的实时物料量。
另外,本申请提供的上述技术方案中的物料存储装置还可以具有如下附加技术特征:
在上述技术方案中,所述物料存储装置还包括:输送叶轮,设置在所述储料箱的底部,并与所述排料口相对应,用于把上方的物料向下输送至所述排料口处;其中,所述防堵罩也罩设在所述输送叶轮的上方,且所述过料间隙与所 述输送叶轮相对应的部分形成为第三间隙过料段,所述第三间隙过料段与所述第二间隙过料段的另一端相连。
物料存储装置还包括输送叶轮,输送叶轮能够将其上方的物料通过叶片旋转传递到下方,进而通过排料口排出,从而实现了储料箱的纵向排料,与单独设置推送螺杆的结构相比,输送效率更高,并且能够通过螺杆转动的速度和转动圈数精准控制物料输送量;且输送叶轮位于排料口的正上方,防堵罩也罩设在输送叶轮的上方,并与储料箱的内壁米之间限定出第三间隙过料段,因而能够促进排料口上方附近的物料输出,从而进一步缓解储料箱排料口上方区域物料隆起的现象,进一步提高给料均匀性。
在上述技术方案中,所述防堵罩与所述储料箱相对设置的两个内壁面之间分别限定出所述过料间隙,两个所述过料间隙的所述第三间隙过料段分别记为推料间隙过料段和下料间隙过料段,且所述推料间隙过料段处的至少部分物料能够在所述输送叶轮旋转时被旋转推送至所述下料间隙过料段处并通过所述排料口排出;其中,所述推料间隙过料段的宽度小于所述下料间隙过料段的宽度。
防堵罩与储料箱相对设置的两个内壁面之间分别限定出过料间隙,则物料可以从两个过料间隙同时向防堵罩下方输送,从而有效提高了下料速度。其中,两个过料间隙的第三间隙过料段分别记为推料间隙过料段和下料间隙过料段,由于输送叶轮旋转时会沿其周向方向将物料向排料口处推送,即:推料间隙过料段处的至少部分物料会被输送叶轮搬运至下料间隙过料段处,然后通过排料口排出,因而相较于推料间隙过料段,下料间隙过料段的物料补充来源多了来自于推料间隙过料段处的物料,因此,在间隙宽度相等的情况下,推料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度会大于下料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度,导致排料口上方区域下料不均,物料不平整。因此,使推料间隙过料段的宽度小于下料间隙过料段的宽度,能够适当减小推料间隙过料段所在位置的下料量,进而使推料间隙过料段所在位置处的下料速度与下料间隙过料段所在位置处的下料速度趋于相等,有效提高排料口上方区域的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内的物料平整度,进一步提高通过传感器判断储料箱内实时物料量的准确度。
值得说明的是,推料间隙过料段和下料间隙过料段的具体位置由输送叶轮 的旋转方向决定。无论输送叶轮顺时针旋转还是逆时针旋转,推料间隙过料段与下料间隙过料段的关系均是:推料间隙过料段上方的物料会落入输送叶轮的旋转叶片之间的凹槽内,然后随输送叶轮向上旋转,到达下料间隙过料段处,然后在重力的作用下自动排出排料口。
在上述技术方案中,所述推料间隙过料段的宽度小于所述第二间隙过料段的宽度;和/或,所述推料间隙过料段的宽度等于所述第一间隙过料段的宽度;和/或,所述下料间隙过料段的宽度等于所述第二间隙过料段的宽度。
相较于第二间隙过料段,推料间隙过料段处的物料既能够被旋转推送至下料间隙过料段处,也能够通过排料口直接排出,因而在间隙宽度相等的情况下,推料间隙过料段处的物料下降速度会大于第二间隙过料段,故而使推料间隙过料段的宽度小于第二间隙过料段的宽度,能够使第二间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度与推料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度趋于相等,进而进一步提高储料箱各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内的物料平整度。
推料间隙过料段的宽度等于第一间隙过料段的宽度,由于第一间隙过料段的宽度小于第二间隙过料段的宽度,因而推料间隙过料段的宽度也小于第二间隙过料段的宽度,有利于进一步提高储料箱各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内的物料平整度;同时也使得产品的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。当然,推料间隙过料段的宽度也可以不等于第一间隙过料段的宽度,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
相较于第二间隙过料段,下料间隙过料段处的物料既有来自于推料间隙过料段处的物料进行补充,又能够通过排料口快速排出,因而在间隙宽度相等的情况下,下料间隙过料段处的物料下降速度与第二间隙过料段处的物料下降速度相差不大,故而使下料间隙过料段的宽度等于第二间隙过料段的宽度,能够使第二间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度与下料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度大致相等,进而进一步提高储料箱各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内的物料平整度;且下料间隙过料段的宽度等于第二间隙过料段的宽度,使得产品的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。当然,下料间隙过料段的宽度也可以不等于第二间隙过料段的宽度,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
在上述任一技术方案中,所述第一间隙过料段与所述第二间隙过料段通过 第一过渡间隙过料段相连,所述第一过渡间隙过料段的宽度沿所述推送螺杆的送料方向逐渐增大;和/或,所述第一间隙过料段为等宽结构;和/或,所述第二间隙过料段为等宽结构;和/或,所述过料间隙的宽度在5mm-10mm的范围内;和/或,所述储料箱的底部局部向下凹陷形成送料槽,所述排料口开设在所述送料槽的底部,所述送料槽两侧的部位被构造成由所述储料箱的侧壁向所述送料槽所在位置倾斜过渡的导流壁,所述防堵罩与所述导流壁之间限定出所述过料间隙。
第一间隙过料段与第二间隙过料段通过第一过渡间隙过料段相连,即:第一间隙过料段与第二间隙过料段之间还设有第一过渡间隙过料段,且第一过渡间隙过料段的宽度沿推送螺杆的送料方向逐渐增大,从而起到了良好的过渡作用,便于各个部位的物料在重力的作用下能够稳定均匀地下落,也有利于进一步提高储料箱内各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内的物料平整度。
同理,第二间隙过料段与推料间隙过料段通过第二过渡间隙过料段相连,即:第二间隙过料段与推料间隙过料段之间还设有第二过渡间隙过料段,且第二过渡间隙过料段的宽度沿推送螺杆的送料方向逐渐减小,从而也起到了良好的过渡作用,便于各个部位的物料在重力的作用下能够稳定均匀地下落,也有利于进一步提高储料箱内各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内的物料平整度。
第一间隙过料段为等宽结构,使得产品结构较为规整,便于加工成型,且造型美观。
同理,第二间隙过料段为等宽结构,使得产品结构较为规整,便于加工成型,且造型美观。
将过料间隙的宽度限定在5mm-10mm的范围内,既保证了花生等大颗粒粮食不能通过过料间隙,从而起到了良好的过滤作用,又保证了大米等小颗粒粮食可以快速穿过过料间隙,从而保证了下料速率。当然,过料间隙的宽度不局限于上述范围,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
利用导流壁的导流作用可以促进物料向送料槽处汇聚以提升推送螺杆对物料的驱动效率;且驱动螺杆旋转的电机运行时的振动可以促进物料沿导流壁向送料槽滑移,起到对物料驱动的协同作用;并降低了物料残留在导流壁上的 概率,从而避免残留的物料变质引起储料箱内物料整体质量下降的情况发生。
优选地,送料槽的截面呈圆弧形,且推送螺杆与送料槽同心设置(即推送螺杆的中心轴线与送料槽截面的中心轴线共线),这使得推送螺杆与送料槽的槽壁之间的距离相对较小且间隙保持上下均匀一致,且越靠上,送料槽的槽壁越陡峭(即送料槽的槽壁的斜率越大),这非常有利于送料槽内靠上的物料自动下滑进入推送螺杆的螺纹间隙内。因此,当储料箱内的物料剩余量相对较少时,送料槽内的绝大部分物料甚至全部物料均能够与推送螺杆接触,进而被推送至推送口处,从而显著降低了推送螺杆的螺纹间出现物料空缺的概率,既提高了能耗利用率,又提高了储料箱足量均匀下料的可靠性,且进一步降低了储料箱内部分物料得不到及时更新而发生霉变的风险。
在上述任一技术方案中,所述储料箱的内壁面为直面,所述防堵罩靠近所述储料箱的内壁面的边缘被构造成非直线型,使所述防堵罩与所述储料箱的内壁面之间形成非等宽的所述过料间隙。
相较于储料箱,防堵罩的尺寸相对较小,因而通过对防堵罩的形状进行改进,将其靠近储料箱的内壁面的边缘构造成非直线型,使其与储料箱的内壁面之间形成非等宽的过料间隙,较容易实现,适于推广。当然,也可以对储料箱的形状进行改进,或者同时对储料箱和防堵罩的形状进行改进,以形成非等宽的过料间隙,由于上述技术方案也能够实现本申请的目的,且没有脱离本申请的设计思想和宗旨,因而均应在本申请的保护范围内。
在上述技术方案中,所述防堵罩靠近所述储料箱的内壁面的边缘被构造成折线型。
将防堵罩靠近储料箱的内壁面的边缘构造成折线型,则通过合理布置折线的长度及弯折角度等,即可方便调节各个间隙过料段的间隙宽度以及长度等尺寸;且折线形结构相较于曲线型结构,更易于加工制造。
在上述任一技术方案中,所述推送螺杆的数量为两个,两个所述推送螺杆同轴连接且送料方向相反,所述排料口位于两个所述推送螺杆之间,且其中一个所述推送螺杆的一端与驱动装置相连,以使两个所述推送螺杆能够同步旋转并同时向所述排料口处推送物料。
推送螺杆的数量为两个,两个推送螺杆同轴连接且送料方向相反,且排料 口位于两个推送螺杆之间,从而形成了双向螺旋卸料系统,实现了双向螺旋送料,起到了较好的运输效果;且两个推送螺杆只需一套驱动装置(如电机+齿轮传动机构)即可实现同步旋转,省去了一套驱动装置,有效简化了产品结构,节约了生产成本。
在上述技术方案中,所述第一间隙过料段的长度与所述过料间隙的总长度之比在0.1-0.3的范围内;和/或,所述第二间隙过料段的长度与所述过料间隙的总长度之比在0.1-0.3的范围内。
将第一间隙过料段的长度与过料间隙的总长度(即防堵罩的总长度)之比限定在0.1-0.3的范围内,保证了第一间隙过料段、第二间隙过料段及第三间隙过料段均具有相对合适的长度,以起到有效的控制下料速度,提高物料平整度效果。当然,第一间隙过料段的长度与过料间隙的总长度之比不局限于上述范围,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
将第二间隙过料段的长度与过料间隙的总长度(即防堵罩的总长度)之比限定在0.1-0.3的范围内,保证了第一间隙过料段、第二间隙过料段及第三间隙过料段均具有相对合适的长度,以起到有效的控制下料速度,提高物料平整度效果。当然,第一间隙过料段的长度与过料间隙的总长度之比不局限于上述范围,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
在上述任一技术方案中,按照由所述出料部位指向远离所述出料部位的方向,所述推送螺杆的螺旋槽的容积逐渐减小;其中,记所述螺旋槽的容积为V,所述螺旋槽与所述排料口之间的距离为L,所述V与所述L满足函数关系:V=f(L)。
本技术方案提供的物料存储装置,通过改进推送螺杆的结构,使其螺旋槽的容积按照由出料部位向远离出料部位的方向逐渐减小,即:以推送螺杆推送物料的方向为基准,螺旋槽的容积由下游向上游逐渐减小,则螺旋槽能够容纳并推送的物料量由上游向下游逐渐增加,因此上游螺旋槽推送的物料量小于下游螺旋槽实际能够容纳的物料量,则下游螺旋槽上方附近的物料会自动向下落入螺旋槽中以填补不足,因而推送螺杆推送至排料口处的物料不仅仅只是靠近储料箱内壁区域的物料,还有储料箱中部区域的物料,从而实现了均匀给料,使得米箱内的物料保持水平,有效改善了物料隆起现象,提高了检测装置判断 储料箱内的实时物料量的准确性。换言之,由于螺旋槽的容积沿推送螺杆的送料方向逐渐增加,需要储料箱内的物料沿着送料方向不断往推送螺杆内补充,这能够逐渐增加推送螺杆送料方向上的物料质量流率,进而使得米粒高度整体均匀减小,保证了物料高度的一致性。
同时,由于螺旋槽的容积V由下游向上游逐渐减小,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L的增加,螺旋槽的容积V逐渐减小,因而V与L负相关;且螺旋槽的容积V和螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L满足函数关系,这保证了V与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L,即可得到螺旋槽的容积V的精确值,使得螺旋槽的容积V(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,有利于储料箱底部各个部位横向输送物料和纵向重力落料的综合作用更加均衡,从而进一步提高储料箱给料的均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内物料的平整度;此外,也便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆的具体结构,以缩短设计周期,进而缩短产品的生产周期。
至于V与L之间的具体函数关系,可以根据产品的具体结构及具体用途进行调整,可以是一次函数、二次函数、三次函数、四次函数等,在此不做限定。
在上述技术方案中,按照由所述出料部位指向远离所述出料部位的方向,所述推送螺杆的螺纹间距保持不变,所述螺旋槽的深度逐渐减小,记所述螺旋槽的深度为H,所述H与所述L满足函数关系:L=f 1(H)。
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆的螺旋槽的深度逐渐减小,推送螺杆的螺纹间距保持不变,即:以推送螺杆推送物料的方向为基准,推送螺杆的螺旋槽深度由上游向下游逐渐增加,推送螺杆的螺纹间距由上游向下游保持不变,这一方面使得推送螺杆的结构相对规整,相较于常规螺杆只需改变螺旋槽深度即可,便于加工成型,另一方面使得各螺旋槽的容积能够形成梯度变化,不至于因螺纹间距和螺旋槽深度同时变化而产生过大差别或者不易控制,从而进一步提高了给料的均匀性。
其中,由于推送螺杆的螺旋槽深度由上游向下游逐渐增加,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L的减小,螺旋槽的深度H逐渐增加,因而H与L负 相关;又由于螺旋槽的容积等于螺旋槽的等效横截面积乘以螺纹间距,因而当螺纹间距保持不变时,螺旋槽的容积与螺旋槽的等效横截面积之间满足一次函数关系;而螺旋槽呈圆环状,因而螺旋槽的等效横截面积与螺旋槽的深度之间满足函数关系,故而螺旋槽的深度H和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L也满足函数关系。这保证了H与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L,即可得到螺旋槽的深度H的精确值,使得螺旋槽的深度H(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,由于螺旋槽的深度H是推送螺杆更为直观的尺寸特征,因而更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆的具体结构,以进一步缩短设计周期,进而进一步缩短产品的生产周期。
进一步地,由于螺旋槽的深度H等于推送螺杆的螺纹外径(记为d1)与螺杆轴径(记为d2)之差的一半,即:H=(d1-d2)/2,因而当螺纹外径保持不变时,螺杆轴的半径R2(R2=d2÷2=d1/2-H)与L也满足函数关系,由于螺杆轴的半径R2也是推送螺杆更为直观的尺寸特征,因而也更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆的具体结构;且由于H与L负相关,因而R2与L正相关,即:随着L的增加,R2逐渐增大。
当然,由于螺旋槽的容积由螺旋槽深度和螺纹间距共同决定,故而也可以仅通过改变螺纹间距或者同时改变螺旋槽深度和螺纹间距来实现螺旋槽的容积变化,由于上述技术方案均能够实现本申请的目的,且均没有脱离本申请的设计思想和宗旨,因而均应在本申请的保护范围内。
值得说明的是,由于螺旋槽是立体结构,具有一定的长度,故而一个螺旋槽沿推送螺杆轴线方向的深度不一定是完全相同,可以存在变化,又由于螺旋槽本身的深度不会相差过大,且该技术方案中螺纹间距保持不变,即各个螺旋槽的长度相同,因而可以定义各个螺纹槽相同部位处的深度为该螺旋槽的深度(比如定义螺纹槽上游端的深度、或者螺旋槽下游端的深度或者螺旋槽正中处的深度),这样,既能够相对准确地保证螺旋槽的等效横截面积随着与排料口的间距大小发生相应变化,又能够限制降低推送螺杆的设计难度。
在上述技术方案中,所述H与所述L满足一次函数关系:L=k×H+C,其中,所述k和所述C为常数,且所述k不等于0;或者,所述H与所述L满 足二次函数关系:L=a×H 2+b×H+c,其中,所述a、所述b和所述c为常数,且所述a不等于0;或者,所述H与所述L满足三次函数关系:L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d,其中,所述a、所述b、所述c和所述d为常数,且所述a不等于0;或者,所述H与所述L满足一次函数关系:H=k×L+C,其中,所述k和所述C为常数,且所述k不等于0;或者,所述H与所述L满足二次函数关系:H=a×L 2+b×L+c,其中,所述a、所述b和所述c为常数,且所述a不等于0;或者,所述H与所述L满足三次函数关系:H=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,其中,所述a、所述b、所述c和所述d为常数,且所述a不等于0。
L=k×H+C,即:H与L满足一次函数关系,则H随着L线性变化,这使得推送螺杆的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,因而常数k<0,常数C>0。
L=a×H 2+b×H+c,即:H与L满足二次函数关系,则H随着L非线性变化。如前所述,螺旋槽的容积V与L满足函数关系V=f(L),当螺纹间距保持不变时,螺旋槽的容积与螺旋槽的等效横截面积之间满足一次函数关系,螺旋槽的等效横截面积与螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L满足函数关系。因此,当V与L满足一次函数关系时,H与L满足二次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料。可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,因而常数a<0,常数c>0,常数b的大小不受限制。
L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d,即:H与L满足三次函数关系,则H也随着L非线性变化,也实现了H与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,而三次函数的图像变化较多,因而只要该函数在直角坐标系的第一象限中存在单调下降的部分即可,至于常数a、b、c、d的大小则不受具体限制。
H=k×L+C,即:L与H满足一次函数关系,则H随着L线性变化,这使得推送螺杆的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。可以理解的是,由于H>0,L>0,且H与L负相关,因而常数k<0,常数C>0。
H=a×L 2+b×L+c,即:L与H满足二次函数关系,则H随着L非线性变化。如前所述,螺旋槽的容积V与H满足函数关系V=f(H),当螺纹间距保 持不变时,螺旋槽的容积与螺旋槽的等效横截面积之间满足一次函数关系,螺旋槽的等效横截面积与螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L满足函数关系。因此,当V与L 4满足一次函数关系时,H与L满足二次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料。可以理解的是,由于H>0,L>0,且H与L负相关,因而常数a<0,常数c>0,常数b的大小不受限制。
H=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,即:H与L满足三次函数关系,则H也随着L非线性变化,也实现了H与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,而三次函数的图像变化较多,因而只要该函数在直角坐标系的第一象限中存在单调下降的部分即可,至于常数a、b、c、d的大小则不受具体限制。
值得说明的是,由于不同储料箱的具体结构和材质存在差别,储料箱内盛装的物料的种类也多种多样,因而储料箱内各处对物料的阻力也存在差别。故而,影响储料箱内各个部位的下料速度的因素也不尽相同,故而V与L可能满足一次函数关系,也可能满足二次函数关系、三次函数关系、四次函数等关系等,且具体的函数关系也可能不同。因而推送螺杆的具体形状也不局限于上述函数关系的限定,在实际生产过程中可以根据具体产品合理设计,且上述函数中各个常数的具体数值也可以根据具体产品进行调整。
在上述技术方案中,按照由所述出料部位指向远离所述出料部位的方向,所述螺旋槽的螺纹深度保持不变,所述推送螺杆的螺纹间距逐渐减小,记所述推送螺杆的螺纹间距为S,所述S与所述L满足函数关系:S=f 2(L)。
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆的螺纹深度保持不便,螺纹间距逐渐减小,即:以推送螺杆推送物料的方向为基准,螺纹间距由下游向上游逐渐减小,而螺旋槽深度保持不变,这样确保了螺旋槽的容积由上游向下游逐渐增加,进而实现均匀给料的目的;同时,该方案使得推送螺杆的结构相对规整,便于加工成型,并使得各螺旋槽的容积能够形成梯度变化,不至于因螺纹间距和螺旋槽深度同时变化而产生过大差别或者不易控制,从而进一步提高了给料的均匀性。
其中,由于推送螺杆的螺纹间距由下游向上游逐渐减小,即:随着螺旋槽 与排料口之间的距离L的增加,螺纹间距S逐渐减小,因而S与L负相关;又如前所述,由于螺旋槽的容积等于螺旋槽的等效横截面积乘以螺纹间距,当螺旋槽的深度保持不变时,螺旋槽的等效横截面积保持不变,因而螺旋槽的容积与螺纹间距之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺纹间距S和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L也满足函数关系。这保证了S与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L,即可得到螺纹间距S的精确值,使得螺纹间距S(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,由于螺纹间距S是推送螺杆更为直观的尺寸特征,因而更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆的具体结构,以进一步缩短设计周期,进而进一步缩短产品的生产周期。
在上述技术方案中,所述S与所述L满足一次函数关系:S=k×L+C,其中,所述k和所述C为常数,且所述k不等于0;或者,所述S与所述L满足二次函数关系:S=a×L 2+b×L+c,其中,所述a、所述b和所述c为常数,且所述a不等于0;或者,所述S与所述L满足三次函数关系:S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,其中,所述a、所述b、所述c和所述d为常数,且所述a不等于0。
S=k×L+C,即:S与L满足一次函数关系,则S随着L线性变化,这使得推送螺杆的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。此外,如前所述,螺旋槽的容积V与L满足函数关系V=f(L),当螺旋槽的深度保持不变时,螺纹槽的容积与螺纹间距之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺纹间距S和和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L满足函数关系。因此,当V与L满足一次函数关系时,S与L满足一次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料。可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,因而常数k<0,常数C>0。
S=a×L 2+b×L+c,即:S与L满足二次函数关系,则S随着L非线性变化,也实现了S与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,因而常数a<0,常数c>0,常数b的大小不受限制。
S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,即:S与L满足三次函数关系,则S也随着L非线性变化,也实现了S与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。可以理解 的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,而三次函数的图像变化较多,因而只要该函数在直角坐标系的第一象限中存在单调下降的部分即可,至于常数a、b、c、d的大小则不受具体限制。
在上述任一技术方案中,按照由所述出料部位指向远离所述出料部位的方向,所述推送螺杆的螺纹外径保持不变;和/或,所述物料存储装置还包括:输送叶轮,设置在所述储料箱的底部,并与所述排料口相对应,用于把上方的物料向下输送至所述排料口处;和/或,所述物料存储装置还包括:弧形物料输送腔,由向下开口的弧面与下方的平面围合形成,所述排料口平滑延伸至所述弧面上,以使所述弧形物料输送腔通过所述排料口与所述储料箱导通。
螺纹外径保持不变,使得推送螺杆的结构较为规整,便于加工成型,也便于安装,降低了对储料箱的形状要求,便于安装;且推送螺杆与储料箱的内壁面之间的距离可以保持不变,进而保证物料的下料速度基本均匀。进一步地,对于上述螺纹间距保持不变螺旋槽深度发生变化的方案而言,只需改变螺杆轴径即可;对于上述螺旋槽深度保持不变螺纹间距发生变化的方案而言,只需改变螺纹位置即可。
物料存储装置还包括输送叶轮,输送叶轮能够将其上方的物料通过叶片旋转传递到下方,进而通过排料口排出,从而实现了储料箱的纵向排料,与单独设置推送螺杆的结构相比,输送效率更高,并且能够通过螺杆转动的速度和转动圈数精准控制物料输送量;且输送叶轮位于排料口的正上方,因而能够促进排料口上方附近的物料输出,从而进一步缓解储料箱中部区域物料隆起的现象,进一步提高给料均匀性。
进一步地,输送叶轮可以与推送螺杆同轴连接,这样可以与推送螺杆通过同一驱动装置实现联动式控制,当然也可以与推送螺杆采用不同的驱动装置分别控制。优选地,输送叶轮套装在第一螺杆与第二螺杆之间的连接轴上。
弧形物料输送腔由向下开口的弧面与下方的平面围合形成,设置于储料箱底部的排料口平滑延伸至弧面上,则通过推送螺杆以及输送叶轮输送至排料口的物料会导入弧形物料输送腔内,通过在弧形物料输送腔的一端设置风机,在另一端开设开口,并与进料管连通,能够使进入弧形物料输送腔内的物料在风机的驱动力导入进料管,进而排到物料清洗装置内,执行物料清洗操作。
在上述任一技术方案中,所述推送螺杆的数量为一个,所述排料口靠近所述储料箱的边缘部位;或者,所述推送螺杆的数量为多个,多个所述推送螺杆以所述排料口为中心呈放射状布置在所述排料口的外侧;或者,所述推送螺杆包括:第一螺杆,其一端连接至所述储料箱的一侧内壁,其另一端临近所述排料口设置;第二螺杆,与所述第一螺杆共轴设置,且与所述第一螺杆的螺纹设置方向相反,其一端连接至所述储料箱的另一侧内壁,其另一端临近所述排料口设置;连接轴,对应设置在所述排料口的上方,分别固定连接至所述第一螺杆的另一端与所述第二螺杆的另一端,以使所述第一螺杆与所述第二螺杆同步旋转。
只设置一个推送螺杆,相应地,排料口临近储料箱的边缘部位,在提高给料均匀性的基础上,精简了部件数量,简化了产品结构,有利于节约生产成本。
通过设置多个推送螺杆,多个推送螺杆以排料口为中心呈放射状布置在排料口的外侧,则多个推送螺杆能够同时推送储料箱多个部位的物料,进而显著提高了给料速度。
推送螺杆由第一螺杆、连接轴以及第二螺杆依次固定连接形成,则连接轴所在的区域即为推送螺杆的出料部位,便于将推送螺杆的出料部位及储料箱的排料口设置在中间区域,进一步提高给料均匀性;并且第一螺杆与第二螺杆设置有反向的螺纹,使得第一螺杆和第二螺杆可以共用同一驱动装置驱动,且在旋转过程中能够分别同步将外侧端的物料推送至排料口,有效节省电机用量,精简产品组成部件,降低产品成本;且形成了双向螺旋卸料系统,相对于传统米仓通过斜度利用重力实现物料外排的方案而言,可以实现储料箱内的物料无局部残留,从而避免残留的物料变质引起储料箱内物料整体质量下降的问题;此外,通过利用推料螺杆将位于储料箱内底部位置处的物料推至排料口处进行外排,可以优先将位于储料箱底部的保存时间较长的物料排出,如此实现根据时间顺序对储料箱内的物料进行更新,提升储料箱内物料的整体质量。其中,第一螺杆、第二螺杆与连接轴可以通过固定组装生成,也可以通过一体成型的方式制成。
在上述任一技术方案中,所述物料存储装置还包括:驱动装置,与所述推送螺杆对应连接,用于驱动所述推送螺杆旋转。
在该技术方案中,通过设置驱动装置,实现了推送螺杆的可控式自动旋转,可以根据输送的物料的量确定输送速度,从而有利于提升输送效率。
在上述技术方案中,所述驱动装置包括电机,所述电机的输出轴与所述推送螺杆同轴连接;或者,所述驱动装置包括电机和与所述电机的输出轴相连的齿轮传动机构,所述齿轮传动机构与所述推送螺杆相连接。
驱动装置包括电机,电机的输出轴与推送螺杆同轴连接,即:电机直接带动推送螺杆旋转,动力传递效率高,且所需的零部件数量较少,简化了产品结构,有利于节约成本。
或者,驱动装置包括电机和齿轮传动机构,齿轮传动机构与推送螺杆相连接,即:电机通过齿轮传动机构间接带动推送螺杆旋转,齿轮传动机构可以实现增速效果,有利于减小电机能耗,且便于根据产品结构合理布局电机的位置。
进一步地,对于前述技术方案中推送螺杆包括第一螺杆、第二螺杆和连接轴的技术方案而言,电机或者齿轮传递机构与第一螺杆或者第二螺杆相连;对于推送螺杆的数量为多个的技术方案而言,驱动装置的数量也为多个,分别驱动各个推送螺杆。

具体实施方式
为了能够更清楚地理解本申请的上述目的、特征和优点,下面结合附图和具体实施方式对本申请进行进一步的详细描述。需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本申请的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合。
在下面的描述中阐述了很多具体细节以便于充分理解本申请,但是,本申请还可以采用其他不同于在此描述的其他方式来实施,因此,本申请的保护范围并不受下面公开的具体实施例的限制。
下面参照图1至图14描述根据本申请一些实施例所述的物料存储装置及烹饪器具。
如图1至图6所示,本申请第一方面的实施例提供的物料存储装置,包括:储料箱10、推送螺杆20和防堵罩30。
具体地,储料箱10的底部开设有用于输出物料的排料口11,如图2至图4所示;推送螺杆20位于储料箱10的底部,且其出料部位临近排料口11,如图2至图4所示,能够在旋转时沿其轴向将物料推送至排料口11处;防堵罩30安装在储料箱10内,并罩设在推送螺杆20的上方,且防堵罩30与储料箱 10的内壁面之间限定有供物料通过的过料间隙50,如图3和图4所示;其中,沿推送螺杆20的送料方向,过料间隙50与推送螺杆20相对应的部分包括第一间隙过料段51和一端与第一间隙过料段51相连的第二间隙过料段52,且第一间隙过料段51的宽度D0小于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1,如图6所示。
本申请第一方面的实施例提供的物料存储装置,通过设置防堵罩30,利用防堵罩30与储料箱10的内壁面之间的过料间隙50来对大颗粒物料进行过滤,从而能够防止大颗粒粮食误入导致输料管堵塞或者卡机现象;同时,通过合理设置过料间隙50的宽度,还能够调节储料箱10内各个部位的下料量,进而控制储料箱10各个部位的下料速度,使各个部位的下料速度趋于一致,进而使得储料箱10内的物料趋于平整,从而提高了通过传感器来检测储料箱10内的实时物料量的准确度。
具体而言,由于储料箱10内的物料需经过过料间隙50到达防堵罩30下方,进而在推送螺杆20的推送下到达排料口11处排出,因而过料间隙50在各个部位的宽度影响着各个部位的下料量,宽度越大,该部位的下料量越多,下料速度越快,反之,宽度越小,该部位的下料量越少,下料速度越小。由于推送螺杆20工作时,会沿其轴向将物料向排料口11处推送,即:第一间隙过料段51的物料会被搬运至第二间隙过料段52处,然后通过排料口11排出,因而第一间隙过料段51处的物料只能由其上方的物料落下进行补充,而第二间隙过料段52处的物料会有第一间隙过料段51横向输送过来的物料进行补充,因此,在间隙宽度相等的情况下,第一间隙过料段51所在位置的下料速度会大于第二间隙过料段52所在位置的下料速度,导致推送螺杆20上方区域下料不均,物料不平整。因此,使第一间隙过料段51的宽度D0小于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1,能够适当减小第一间隙过料段51所在位置的下料量,进而使第一间隙过料段51所在位置处的下料速度与第二间隙过料段52所在位置处的下料速度趋于相等,有效提高推送螺杆20上方区域的下料均匀性,有利于实现通过传感器精准判断储料箱10内的实时物料量。
下面结合一些实施例来详细描述本申请提供的物料存储装置的具体结构。
实施例一
在上述实施例中,物料存储装置还包括:输送叶轮40,设置在储料箱10的底部,并与排料口11相对应,如图2至图4所示,用于把上方的物料向下输送至排料口11处;其中,防堵罩30也罩设在输送叶轮40的上方,且过料间隙50与输送叶轮40相对应的部分形成为第三间隙过料段53,第三间隙过料段53与第二间隙过料段52的另一端相连,如图6所示。
物料存储装置还包括输送叶轮40,输送叶轮40能够将其上方的物料通过叶片旋转传递到下方,进而通过排料口11排出,从而实现了储料箱10的纵向排料,与单独设置推送螺杆20的结构相比,输送效率更高,并且能够通过螺杆转动的速度和转动圈数精准控制物料输送量;且输送叶轮40位于排料口11的正上方,防堵罩30也罩设在输送叶轮40的上方,并与储料箱10的内壁米之间限定出第三间隙过料段53,因而能够促进排料口11上方附近的物料输出,从而进一步缓解储料箱10排料口11上方区域物料隆起的现象,进一步提高给料均匀性。
进一步地,防堵罩30与储料箱10相对设置的两个内壁面之间分别限定出过料间隙50,如图4所示,两个过料间隙50的第三间隙过料段53分别记为推料间隙过料段和下料间隙过料段,且推料间隙过料段处的至少部分物料能够在输送叶轮40旋转时被旋转推送至下料间隙过料段处并通过排料口11排出;其中,推料间隙过料段的宽度D2小于下料间隙过料段的宽度D2。
防堵罩30与储料箱10相对设置的两个内壁面之间分别限定出过料间隙50,则物料可以从两个过料间隙50同时向防堵罩30下方输送,从而有效提高了下料速度。其中,两个过料间隙50的第三间隙过料段53分别记为推料间隙过料段和下料间隙过料段,由于输送叶轮40旋转时会沿其周向方向将物料向排料口11处推送,即:推料间隙过料段处的至少部分物料会被输送叶轮40搬运至下料间隙过料段处,然后通过排料口11排出,因而相较于推料间隙过料段,下料间隙过料段的物料补充来源多了来自于推料间隙过料段处的物料,因此,在间隙宽度相等的情况下,推料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度会大于下料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度,导致排料口11上方区域下料不均,物料不平整。因此,使推料间隙过料段的宽度D2小于下料间隙过料段的宽度D2,能够适当减小推料间隙过料段所在位置的下料量,进而使推料间隙过料 段所在位置处的下料速度与下料间隙过料段所在位置处的下料速度趋于相等,有效提高排料口11上方区域的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内的物料平整度,进一步提高通过传感器判断储料箱10内实时物料量的准确度。
值得说明的是,推料间隙过料段和下料间隙过料段的具体位置由输送叶轮40的旋转方向决定。无论输送叶轮40顺时针旋转还是逆时针旋转,推料间隙过料段与下料间隙过料段的关系均是:推料间隙过料段上方的物料会落入输送叶轮40的旋转叶片之间的凹槽内,然后随输送叶轮40向上旋转,到达下料间隙过料段处,然后在重力的作用下自动排出排料口11。
进一步地,推料间隙过料段的宽度D2小于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1。
相较于第二间隙过料段52,推料间隙过料段处的物料既能够被旋转推送至下料间隙过料段处,也能够通过排料口11直接排出,因而在间隙宽度相等的情况下,推料间隙过料段处的物料下降速度会大于第二间隙过料段52,故而使推料间隙过料段的宽度D2小于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1,能够使第二间隙过料段52所在位置的下料速度与推料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度趋于相等,进而进一步提高储料箱10各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内的物料平整度。
优选地,推料间隙过料段的宽度D2等于第一间隙过料段51的宽度D0。
推料间隙过料段的宽度D2等于第一间隙过料段51的宽度D0,由于第一间隙过料段51的宽度D0小于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1,因而推料间隙过料段的宽度D2也小于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1,有利于进一步提高储料箱10各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内的物料平整度;同时也使得产品的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。当然,推料间隙过料段的宽度D2也可以不等于第一间隙过料段51的宽度D0,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
优选地,下料间隙过料段的宽度D2等于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1。
相较于第二间隙过料段52,下料间隙过料段处的物料既有来自于推料间隙过料段处的物料进行补充,又能够通过排料口11快速排出,因而在间隙宽度相等的情况下,下料间隙过料段处的物料下降速度与第二间隙过料段52处的物料下降速度相差不大,故而使下料间隙过料段的宽度D2等于第二间隙过 料段52的宽度D1,能够使第二间隙过料段52所在位置的下料速度与下料间隙过料段所在位置的下料速度大致相等,进而进一步提高储料箱10各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内的物料平整度;且下料间隙过料段的宽度D2等于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1,使得产品的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。当然,下料间隙过料段的宽度D2也可以不等于第二间隙过料段52的宽度D1,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
进一步地,第一间隙过料段51与第二间隙过料段52通过第一过渡间隙过料段54相连,第一过渡间隙过料段54的宽度沿推送螺杆20的送料方向逐渐增大,如图6所示。
第一间隙过料段51与第二间隙过料段52通过第一过渡间隙过料段54相连,即:第一间隙过料段51与第二间隙过料段52之间还设有第一过渡间隙过料段54,且第一过渡间隙过料段54的宽度沿推送螺杆20的送料方向逐渐增大,从而起到了良好的过渡作用,便于各个部位的物料在重力的作用下能够稳定均匀地下落,也有利于进一步提高储料箱10内各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内的物料平整度。
同理,第二间隙过料段52与推料间隙过料段通过第二过渡间隙过料段55相连,如图6所示,即:第二间隙过料段52与推料间隙过料段之间还设有第二过渡间隙过料段55,且第二过渡间隙过料段55的宽度沿推送螺杆20的送料方向逐渐减小,从而也起到了良好的过渡作用,便于各个部位的物料在重力的作用下能够稳定均匀地下落,也有利于进一步提高储料箱10内各个部位的下料均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内的物料平整度。
优选地,第一间隙过料段51为等宽结构,如图6所示。
优选地,第二间隙过料段52为等宽结构,如图6所示。
第一间隙过料段51为等宽结构,使得产品结构较为规整,便于加工成型,且造型美观。
同理,第二间隙过料段52为等宽结构,使得产品结构较为规整,便于加工成型,且造型美观。
优选地,过料间隙50的宽度在5mm-10mm的范围内。
将过料间隙50的宽度限定在5mm-10mm的范围内,既保证了花生等大颗 粒粮食不能通过过料间隙50,从而起到了良好的过滤作用,又保证了大米等小颗粒粮食可以快速穿过过料间隙50,从而保证了下料速率。当然,过料间隙50的宽度不局限于上述范围,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
实施例二
与实施例一的区别在于:在实施例一的基础上,进一步地,储料箱10的底部局部向下凹陷形成送料槽,排料口11开设在送料槽的底部,送料槽两侧的部位被构造成由储料箱10的侧壁向送料槽所在位置倾斜过渡的导流壁12,防堵罩30与导流壁12之间限定出过料间隙50,如图2至图4所示。
利用导流壁12的导流作用可以促进物料向送料槽处汇聚以提升推送螺杆20对物料的驱动效率;且驱动螺杆旋转的电机运行时的振动可以促进物料沿导流壁12向送料槽滑移,起到对物料驱动的协同作用;并降低了物料残留在导流壁12上的概率,从而避免残留的物料变质引起储料箱10内物料整体质量下降的情况发生。
优选地,送料槽的截面呈圆弧形,且推送螺杆20与送料槽同心设置(即推送螺杆20的中心轴线与送料槽截面的中心轴线共线),这使得推送螺杆20与送料槽的槽壁之间的距离相对较小且间隙保持上下均匀一致,且越靠上,送料槽的槽壁越陡峭(即送料槽的槽壁的斜率越大),这非常有利于送料槽内靠上的物料自动下滑进入推送螺杆20的螺纹间隙内。因此,当储料箱10内的物料剩余量相对较少时,送料槽内的绝大部分物料甚至全部物料均能够与推送螺杆20接触,进而被推送至推送口处,从而显著降低了推送螺杆20的螺纹间出现物料空缺的概率,既提高了能耗利用率,又提高了储料箱10足量均匀下料的可靠性,且进一步降低了储料箱10内部分物料得不到及时更新而发生霉变的风险。
进一步地,储料箱10的内壁面为直面,防堵罩30靠近储料箱10的内壁面的边缘被构造成非直线型,如图6所示,使防堵罩30与储料箱10的内壁面之间形成非等宽的过料间隙50。
相较于储料箱10,防堵罩30的尺寸相对较小,因而通过对防堵罩30的形状进行改进,将其靠近储料箱10的内壁面的边缘构造成非直线型,使其与储料箱10的内壁面之间形成非等宽的过料间隙50,较容易实现,适于推广。 当然,也可以对储料箱10的形状进行改进,或者同时对储料箱10和防堵罩30的形状进行改进,以形成非等宽的过料间隙50,由于上述实施例也能够实现本申请的目的,且没有脱离本申请的设计思想和宗旨,因而均应在本申请的保护范围内。
优选地,防堵罩30靠近储料箱10的内壁面的边缘被构造成折线型,如图5和图6所示。
将防堵罩30靠近储料箱10的内壁面的边缘构造成折线型,则通过合理布置折线的长度及弯折角度等,即可方便调节各个间隙过料段的间隙宽度以及长度等尺寸;且折线形结构相较于曲线型结构,更易于加工制造。
实施例三
与实施例二的区别在于:在实施例二的基础上,进一步地,推送螺杆20的数量为两个,两个推送螺杆20同轴连接且送料方向相反,排料口11位于两个推送螺杆20之间,如图2所示,且其中一个推送螺杆20的一端与驱动装置60相连,以使两个推送螺杆20能够同步旋转并同时向排料口11处推送物料。
推送螺杆20的数量为两个,两个推送螺杆20同轴连接且送料方向相反,且排料口11位于两个推送螺杆20之间,从而形成了双向螺旋卸料系统,实现了双向螺旋送料,起到了较好的运输效果;且两个推送螺杆20只需一套驱动装置60(如电机+齿轮传动机构)即可实现同步旋转,省去了一套驱动装置60,有效简化了产品结构,节约了生产成本。
优选地,第一间隙过料段51的长度与过料间隙50的总长度之比在0.1-0.3的范围内。
将第一间隙过料段51的长度与过料间隙50的总长度(即防堵罩30的总长度)之比限定在0.1-0.3的范围内,保证了第一间隙过料段51、第二间隙过料段52及第三间隙过料段53均具有相对合适的长度,以起到有效的控制下料速度,提高物料平整度效果。当然,第一间隙过料段51的长度与过料间隙50的总长度之比不局限于上述范围,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
优选地,第二间隙过料段52的长度与过料间隙50的总长度之比在0.1-0.3的范围内。
将第二间隙过料段52的长度与过料间隙50的总长度(即防堵罩30的总 长度)之比限定在0.1-0.3的范围内,保证了第一间隙过料段51、第二间隙过料段52及第三间隙过料段53均具有相对合适的长度,以起到有效的控制下料速度,提高物料平整度效果。当然,第一间隙过料段51的长度与过料间隙50的总长度之比不局限于上述范围,在实际生产过程中可以根据需要进行调整。
实施例四
与上述任一实施例的区别在于:在上述任一实施例的基础上,进一步地,按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺旋槽的容积逐渐减小;其中,记螺旋槽的容积为V,螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离为L,V与L满足函数关系:V=f(L)。
本申请实施例提供的物料存储装置,通过改进推送螺杆20的结构,使其螺旋槽的容积按照由出料部位向远离出料部位的方向逐渐减小,即:以推送螺杆20推送物料的方向为基准,螺旋槽的容积由下游向上游逐渐减小,则螺旋槽能够容纳并推送的物料量由上游向下游逐渐增加,因此上游螺旋槽推送的物料量小于下游螺旋槽实际能够容纳的物料量,则下游螺旋槽上方附近的物料会自动向下落入螺旋槽中以填补不足,因而推送螺杆20推送至排料口11处的物料不仅仅只是靠近储料箱10内壁区域的物料,还有储料箱10中部区域的物料,从而实现了均匀给料,使得米箱内的物料保持水平,有效改善了物料隆起现象,提高了检测装置判断储料箱10内的实时物料量的准确性。换言之,由于螺旋槽的容积沿推送螺杆20的送料方向逐渐增加,需要储料箱10内的物料沿着送料方向不断往推送螺杆20内补充,这能够逐渐增加推送螺杆20送料方向上的物料质量流率,进而使得米粒高度整体均匀减小,保证了物料高度的一致性。
同时,由于螺旋槽的容积V由下游向上游逐渐减小,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L的增加,螺旋槽的容积V逐渐减小,因而V与L负相关;且螺旋槽的容积V和螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L满足函数关系,这保证了V与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L,即可得到螺旋槽的容积V的精确值,使得螺旋槽的容积V(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,有利于储料箱10底部各个部位横向输送物料和纵向重力落料的综合作用更加均衡,从而进一步提高储料箱10给料的均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内物料的平整度;此 外,也便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构,以缩短设计周期,进而缩短产品的生产周期。
进一步地,按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距保持不变,螺旋槽的深度逐渐减小,如图9所示,记螺旋槽的深度为H,H与L满足函数关系:L=f 1(H)。
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺旋槽的深度逐渐减小,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距保持不变,即:以推送螺杆20推送物料的方向为基准,推送螺杆20的螺旋槽深度由上游向下游逐渐增加,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距由上游向下游保持不变,这一方面使得推送螺杆20的结构相对规整,相较于常规螺杆只需改变螺旋槽深度即可,便于加工成型,另一方面使得各螺旋槽的容积能够形成梯度变化,不至于因螺纹间距和螺旋槽深度同时变化而产生过大差别或者不易控制,从而进一步提高了给料的均匀性。
其中,由于推送螺杆20的螺旋槽深度H由上游向下游逐渐增加,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L的减小,螺旋槽的深度H逐渐增加,因而H与L负相关;又由于螺旋槽的容积等于螺旋槽的等效横截面积乘以螺纹间距,因而当螺纹间距保持不变时,螺旋槽的容积与螺旋槽的等效横截面积之间满足一次函数关系;而螺旋槽呈圆环状,因而螺旋槽的等效横截面积与螺旋槽的深度之间满足函数关系,故而螺旋槽的深度H和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L也满足函数关系。这保证了H与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L,即可得到螺旋槽的深度H的精确值,使得螺旋槽的深度H(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,由于螺旋槽的深度H是推送螺杆20更为直观的尺寸特征,因而更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构,以进一步缩短设计周期,进而进一步缩短产品的生产周期。
进一步地,由于螺旋槽的深度H等于推送螺杆20的螺纹外径(记为d1)与螺杆轴径(记为d2)之差的一半,即:H=(d1-d2)/2,因而当螺纹外径保持不变时,螺杆轴的半径R2(R2=d2÷2=d1/2-H)与L也满足函数关系,由于螺杆轴的半径R2也是推送螺杆20更为直观的尺寸特征,因而也更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构;且由于H与L负相 关,因而R2与L正相关,即:随着L的增加,R2逐渐增大。
当然,由于螺旋槽的容积由螺旋槽深度和螺纹间距共同决定,故而也可以仅通过改变螺纹间距或者同时改变螺旋槽深度和螺纹间距来实现螺旋槽的容积变化,由于上述实施例均能够实现本申请的目的,且均没有脱离本申请的设计思想和宗旨,因而均应在本申请的保护范围内。在上述实施例中,按照由出料部位向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺杆轴径逐渐增大。
值得说明的是,由于螺旋槽是立体结构,具有一定的长度,故而一个螺旋槽沿推送螺杆20轴线方向的深度不一定是完全相同,可以存在变化,又由于螺旋槽本身的深度不会相差过大,且该实施例中螺纹间距保持不变,即各个螺旋槽的长度相同,因而可以定义各个螺纹槽相同部位处的深度为该螺旋槽的深度(比如定义螺纹槽上游端的深度、或者螺旋槽下游端的深度或者螺旋槽正中处的深度),这样,既能够相对准确地保证螺旋槽的等效横截面积随着与排料口11的间距大小发生相应变化,又能够限制降低推送螺杆20的设计难度。
具体地,H与L满足一次函数关系:L=k×H+C或者H=k×L+C,其中,k和C为常数,且k不等于0。
L=k×H+C或者H=k×L+C,即:H与L满足一次函数关系,则H随着L线性变化,这使得推送螺杆20的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,因而常数k<0,常数C>0。
进一步地,推送螺杆20包括:第一螺杆、第二螺杆和连接轴,如图8至图14所示。其中,第一螺杆的一端连接至储料箱10的一侧内壁,其另一端临近排料口11设置;第二螺杆与第一螺杆共轴设置,且与第一螺杆的螺纹设置方向相反,其一端连接至储料箱10的另一侧内壁,其另一端临近排料口11设置;连接轴对应设置在排料口11的上方,分别固定连接至第一螺杆的另一端与第二螺杆的另一端,以使第一螺杆与第二螺杆同步旋转。
推送螺杆20由第一螺杆、连接轴以及第二螺杆依次固定连接形成,则连接轴所在的区域即为推送螺杆20的出料部位,便于将推送螺杆20的出料部位及储料箱10的排料口11设置在中间区域,进一步提高给料均匀性;并且第一螺杆与第二螺杆设置有反向的螺纹,使得第一螺杆和第二螺杆可以共用同一驱 动装置60驱动,且在旋转过程中能够分别同步将外侧端的物料推送至排料口11,有效节省电机用量,精简产品组成部件,降低产品成本;且形成了双向螺旋卸料系统,相对于传统米仓通过斜度利用重力实现物料外排的方案而言,可以实现储料箱10内的物料无局部残留,从而避免残留的物料变质引起储料箱10内物料整体质量下降的问题;此外,通过利用推料螺杆将位于储料箱10内底部位置处的物料推至排料口11处进行外排,可以优先将位于储料箱10底部的保存时间较长的物料排出,如此实现根据时间顺序对储料箱10内的物料进行更新,提升储料箱10内物料的整体质量。其中,第一螺杆、第二螺杆与连接轴可以通过固定组装生成,也可以通过一体成型的方式制成。
实施例五
与实施例四的区别在于:H与L满足二次函数关系:L=a×H 2+b×H+c或者H=a×L 2+b×L+c,其中,a、b和c为常数,且a不等于0。
L=a×H 2+b×H+c或者H=a×L 2+b×L+c,即:H与L满足二次函数关系,则H随着L非线性变化。如前所述,螺旋槽的容积V与L满足函数关系V=f(L),当螺纹间距保持不变时,螺旋槽的容积与螺旋槽的等效横截面积之间满足一次函数关系,螺旋槽的等效横截面积与螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L满足函数关系。因此,当V与L满足一次函数关系时,H与L满足L=a×H 2+b×H+c的二次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料;当V与L 4满足一次函数关系时,H与L满足H=a×L 2+b×L+c的二次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于H>0,L>0,且H与L负相关,因而常数a<0,常数c>0,常数b的大小不受限制。
实施例六
与实施例四的区别在于:H与L满足三次函数关系:L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d或者L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d,其中,a、b、c和d为常数,且a不等于0。
L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d或者H=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,即:H与L满足三次函数关系,则H也随着L非线性变化,也实现了H与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,而三次函数的图像变化较多,因而只要该函数在直角坐标系的第一象限中存在单调下降的部分即可,至于常数a、b、c、d的大小则不受具体限制。
值得说明的是,由于不同储料箱10的具体结构和材质存在差别,储料箱10内盛装的物料的种类也多种多样,因而储料箱10内各处对物料的阻力也存在差别。故而,影响储料箱10内各个部位的下料速度的因素也不尽相同,故而V与L可能满足一次函数关系,也可能满足二次函数关系、三次函数关系、四次函数等关系等,且具体的函数关系也可能不同。因而推送螺杆20的具体形状也不局限于上述函数关系的限定,在实际生产过程中可以根据具体产品合理设计,且上述函数中各个常数的具体数值也可以根据具体产品进行调整。
实施例七
与实施例四的区别在于:按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,螺旋槽的螺纹深度保持不变,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距逐渐减小,记推送螺杆20的螺纹间距为S,S与L满足函数关系:S=f 2(L)。
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺纹深度保持不便,螺纹间距逐渐减小,即:以推送螺杆20推送物料的方向为基准,螺纹间距由下游向上游逐渐减小,而螺旋槽深度保持不变,这样确保了螺旋槽的容积由上游向下游逐渐增加,进而实现均匀给料的目的;同时,该方案使得推送螺杆20的结构相对规整,便于加工成型,并使得各螺旋槽的容积能够形成梯度变化,不至于因螺纹间距和螺旋槽深度同时变化而产生过大差别或者不易控制,从而进一步提高了给料的均匀性。
其中,由于推送螺杆20的螺纹间距S由下游向上游逐渐减小,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L的增加,螺纹间距S逐渐减小,因而S与L负相关;又如前所述,由于螺旋槽的容积等于螺旋槽的等效横截面积乘以螺纹间距,当螺旋槽的深度保持不变时,螺旋槽的等效横截面积保持不变,因而螺旋槽的容积与螺纹间距之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺纹间距S和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L也满足函数关系。这保证了S与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L,即可得到螺纹间距S的精确值,使得螺纹间距S(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得 到精确控制,由于螺纹间距S是推送螺杆20更为直观的尺寸特征,因而更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构,以进一步缩短设计周期,进而进一步缩短产品的生产周期。
具体地,S与L满足一次函数关系:S=k×L+C,其中,k和C为常数,且k不等于0。
S=k×L+C,即:S与L满足一次函数关系,则S随着L线性变化,这使得推送螺杆20的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。此外,如前所述,螺旋槽的容积V与L满足函数关系V=f(L),当螺旋槽的深度保持不变时,螺纹槽的容积与螺纹间距之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺纹间距S和和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L满足函数关系。因此,当V与L满足一次函数关系时,S与L满足一次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,因而常数k<0,常数C>0。
实施例八
与实施例七的区别在于:S与L满足二次函数关系:S=a×L 2+b×L+c,其中,a、b和c为常数,且a不等于0。
S=a×L 2+b×L+c,即:S与L满足三次函数关系,则S随着L非线性变化,也实现了S与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,因而常数a<0,常数c>0,常数b的大小不受限制。
实施例九
与实施例七的区别在于:S与L满足三次函数关系:S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,其中,a、b、c和d为常数,且a不等于0。
S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,即:S与L满足三次函数关系,则S也随着L非线性变化,也实现了S与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,而三次函数的图像变化较多,因而只要该函数在直角坐标系的第一象限中存在单调下降的部分即可,至于常数a、b、c、d的大小则不受具体限制。
实施例十
与实施例五的区别在于:推送螺杆20的数量为一个,排料口11靠近储料箱10的边缘部位。
实施例十一
与实施例七的区别在于:推送螺杆20的数量为一个,排料口11靠近储料箱10的边缘部位。
在实施例十和实施例十一中,只设置一个推送螺杆20,相应地,排料口11临近储料箱10的边缘部位,在提高给料均匀性的基础上,精简了部件数量,简化了产品结构,有利于节约生产成本。在本申请的另一些实施例中,推送螺杆20的数量为多个,多个推送螺杆20以排料口11为中心呈放射状布置在排料口11的外侧。
通过设置多个推送螺杆20,多个推送螺杆20以排料口11为中心呈放射状布置在排料口11的外侧,则多个推送螺杆20能够同时推送储料箱10多个部位的物料,进而显著提高了给料速度。
在上述任一实施例中,按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺纹外径保持不变,如图9至图14所示。
螺纹外径保持不变,使得推送螺杆20的结构较为规整,便于加工成型,也便于安装,降低了对储料箱10的形状要求,便于安装;且推送螺杆20与储料箱10的内壁面之间的距离可以保持不变,进而保证物料的下料速度基本均匀。进一步地,对于上述螺纹间距保持不变螺旋槽深度发生变化的方案而言,只需改变螺杆轴径即可;对于上述螺旋槽深度保持不变螺纹间距发生变化的方案而言,只需改变螺纹位置即可。
在上述任一实施例中,物料存储装置还包括:输送叶轮40,设置在储料箱10的底部,并与排料口11相对应,用于把上方的物料向下输送至排料口11处,如图8至图14所示。
物料存储装置还包括输送叶轮40,输送叶轮40能够将其上方的物料通过叶片旋转传递到下方,进而通过排料口11排出,从而实现了储料箱10的纵向排料,与单独设置推送螺杆20的结构相比,输送效率更高,并且能够通过螺杆转动的速度和转动圈数精准控制物料输送量;且输送叶轮40位于排料口11的正上方,因而能够促进排料口11上方附近的物料输出,从而进一步缓解储 料箱10中部区域物料隆起的现象,进一步提高给料均匀性。
进一步地,输送叶轮40可以与推送螺杆20同轴连接,这样可以与推送螺杆20通过同一驱动装置60实现联动式控制,当然也可以与推送螺杆20采用不同的驱动装置60分别控制。优选地,输送叶轮40套装在第一螺杆与第二螺杆之间的连接轴上。
在上述任一实施例中,物料存储装置还包括:弧形物料输送腔80,如图7和图8所示,由向下开口的弧面与下方的平面围合形成,排料口11平滑延伸至弧面上,以使弧形物料输送腔80通过排料口11与储料箱10导通。
弧形物料输送腔80由向下开口的弧面与下方的平面围合形成,设置于储料箱10底部的排料口11平滑延伸至弧面上,则通过推送螺杆20以及输送叶轮40输送至排料口11的物料会导入弧形物料输送腔80内,通过在弧形物料输送腔80的一端设置风机,在另一端开设开口,并与进料管连通,能够使进入弧形物料输送腔80内的物料在风机的驱动力导入进料管,进而排到物料清洗装置内,执行物料清洗操作。
在上述任一实施例中,物料存储装置还包括:驱动装置60,如图7所示,与推送螺杆20对应连接,用于驱动推送螺杆20旋转。
在该实施例中,通过设置驱动装置60,实现了推送螺杆20的可控式自动旋转,可以根据输送的物料的量确定输送速度,从而有利于提升输送效率。
具体地,驱动装置60包括电机,电机的输出轴与推送螺杆20同轴连接;或者,驱动装置60包括电机和与电机的输出轴相连的齿轮传动机构,齿轮传动机构与推送螺杆20相连接。
驱动装置60包括电机,电机的输出轴与推送螺杆20同轴连接,即:电机直接带动推送螺杆20旋转,动力传递效率高,且所需的零部件数量较少,简化了产品结构,有利于节约成本。
或者,驱动装置60包括电机和齿轮传动机构,齿轮传动机构与推送螺杆20相连接,即:电机通过齿轮传动机构间接带动推送螺杆20旋转,齿轮传动机构可以实现增速效果,有利于减小电机能耗,且便于根据产品结构合理布局电机的位置。
进一步地,对于前述实施例中推送螺杆20包括第一螺杆、第二螺杆和连 接轴的实施例而言,电机或者齿轮传递机构与第一螺杆或者第二螺杆相连;对于推送螺杆20的数量为多个的实施例而言,驱动装置60的数量也为多个,分别驱动各个推送螺杆20。
本申请第二方面的实施例提供了一种烹饪器具,包括:烹饪主体和如第一方面实施例中任一项的物料存储装置,其排料口11能够与烹饪主体的内部空间相连通。
本申请第二方面的实施例提供的烹饪器具,因包括第一方面实施例中任一项的物料存储装置,因而具有上述任一实施例所具有的一切有益效果,在此不再赘述。
至于烹饪主体的内部空间,不受具体限制,比如:可以是上盖内的清洗腔体,物料送入清洗腔体内进行清洗;也可以是内锅,物料送入内锅中进行清洗或者烹饪。
具体地,储料箱10下方设有送料机构70,如与排料口11相连通的中转腔体和与中转腔体相连通的输料管,储料箱10内的物料先排入中转腔体内,然后在风力等动力的驱动下输送至烹饪主体的内部空间。
在上述任一实施例中,烹饪器具为电饭煲。
当然,不局限于电饭煲,也可以为电压力锅、电蒸锅、电煮锅、豆浆机等。
下面结合一些具体实施例来详细描述本申请提供的烹饪器具的具体结构及工作原理,并与现有技术进行对比。
一种全自动电饭煲,设计了一种高容积率米箱,底部设有螺旋给料装置(即两个推送螺杆20),高容积率米箱通过底部的双向螺旋卸料系统代替传统米仓通过斜度自动下米的功能。工作状态下,电机驱动螺杆转动,带动两端螺旋结构将两侧米粒搬运至中间,然后经由底部中间位置的卸料口(即排料口11)卸出。由于螺旋结构紧贴米仓底部,即使米量较少时也能达到较好的运输效果。在米箱的双向螺旋下米系统中,易出现米箱内不平整的现象,导致不能通过传感器精准判断米仓实时米量。
本申请通过调整防堵罩30的形状,实现调整防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁的间距,从而控制米箱不同部位的下米速度,到达在下米过程米箱内的米保持平整的效果。
具体地,本申请涉及一种米箱及下米结构,如图1所示,主要由米箱(即储料箱10)、送米机构和电机组成。在米箱的底部设有双向螺旋的螺杆,螺杆的一端与电机相连,可以是直接与电机输出轴连接,也可以通过齿轮连接;在螺杆中间设有叶片。在螺杆上方设有防堵罩30,防堵罩30可以起到防止大颗粒物体进入到送米机构的管道中,还可以起到调节下米量的作用,达到米箱内的米在整个下米过程中保持平整的效果。
米箱及下米结构的剖面图如图2和图3所示,11为下米口,20为双向螺旋螺杆,40为旋转叶片(即输送叶轮40),30为防堵罩,12为米箱底部侧壁(即导流壁12)。
其中,防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁之间具有一定的间距D,如图4所示,D的取值范围为5-10mm;防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁的间距为非等距,即防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁对应的边为非直线型,图5所示为其中的一种示意图。
该种防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁间距的示意图如图6所示,在防堵罩30两端,防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁的间距D0(即第一间隙过料段51的宽度)较小,该部分长度各占防堵罩30总长度10%~30%;在防堵罩30端部与长度方向中心点之间的中间部位的间距D1(即第二间隙过料段52的宽度)比较大,即D1>D0,该部分长度占防堵罩30总长度10%~30%。
当电机带动旋转叶片顺时针旋转时,旋转叶片对应位置处的防堵罩30左边与米箱底部侧壁的间距D2(即推料间隙过料段的宽度)较小,且D2=D0,旋转叶片对应位置处的防堵罩30右边与米箱底部侧壁的间距D2(即下料间隙过料段的宽度)较大,且D2=D1>D0;当电机带动旋转叶片逆时针旋转时,旋转叶片对应位置处的防堵罩30右边边与米箱底部侧壁的间距D2(即推料间隙过料段的宽度)较小,且D2=D0,旋转叶片对应位置处的防堵罩30左边与米箱底部侧壁的间距D2(即下料间隙过料段的宽度)较大,且D2=D1>D0。
工作时,电机转动,米箱内的米从防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁间的间隙进入到底部,螺杆将两侧米向中间推动,米通过旋转叶片从米箱底部的下米口(即排料口11)进入送米机构。在双向螺旋卸料系统中,易出现米箱两侧米量迅速下降,中间隆起的现象,导致不能通过传感器精准判断米仓实时米量。
米箱内的米在下米过程中,通过双向螺旋螺杆将米箱两侧的米向中间推 动,在螺杆上方设有防堵罩30,一方面可以实现防止大颗粒物体进度到输送管道内而出现卡机现象;另外一方面,调整防堵罩30的形状可实现调整其与米箱底部侧壁的间隙,在下米较快的部位其间隙较小,在下米较慢的部位其间隙较大,从而实现均匀下米,使得米箱内的米保持水平。其具体原理如下:
由于在下米过程中,通过双向螺旋螺杆将米箱两侧的米向中间推动,在米箱两侧(即第一间隙过料段51所在位置),在螺杆的长度方向没有米的补充,只有正上方米的补充,即米箱该部位下米速度较快,因此,在防堵罩30两端,其与米箱底部侧壁的间距较小;在防堵罩30端部与长度方向中心点之间的中间部位(即第二间隙过料段52所在部位),会有从米箱两侧推动过来的米进行补充,其对应位置处米箱的下米速度较慢,因此,该部位防堵罩30与米箱底部侧壁的间距较大。
如图4所示,当电机带动旋转叶片顺时针旋转时,在旋转叶片对应位置处,左侧的米进入到旋转叶片的凹槽并被带到右侧,造成该部位米箱的下米速度较快,因此,该部位防堵罩30左侧与米箱底部侧壁的间距较小;由于左侧的米被旋转叶片带到右侧,导致该部位上方米箱的下米速度较慢,因此,该部位防堵罩30右侧与米箱底部侧壁的间距较大。
电机带动旋转叶片逆时针旋转时,在旋转叶片对应位置处,右侧的米进入到旋转叶片的凹槽并被带到左侧,造成该部位米箱的下米速度较快,因此,该部位防堵罩30右侧与米箱底部侧壁的间距较小;由于右侧的米被旋转叶片带到左侧,导致该部位上方米箱的下米速度较慢,因此,该部位防堵罩30左侧与米箱底部侧壁的间距较大。
在另一些具体实施例中,进一步根据螺杆输运的特点,设计了等径等距不等深及等径等深不等距两种螺杆结构,满足均匀输送物料的要求。
具体地,本申请设计的一种米箱及下米结构,如图7所示,在螺杆中间设有叶片,与螺杆采用同轴传动,叶片两端的螺杆螺旋方向相反。
米箱及下米结构的剖面图,如图8所示,11为下米口(即排料口),12为双向螺旋螺杆,一端为左旋,一端为右旋,螺旋方向相反;13为叶片(即输送叶轮),米箱两端的螺杆与叶片采用同轴传动,总体效果保证米粒往中间运输。
工作时,电机带动螺杆旋转,将米箱两侧的米粒往中间运输,达到中间的米粒通过叶片翻转从米箱底部的下米口进入送米机构。传统螺杆采用等距、等径、螺槽等深方式设计,工作过程中,只有螺杆与米箱接触的端部会有米粒填充输运,其余螺杆部分米粒无法填充,导致米粒不平整。
根据螺杆输运的性质,提出了以下两种设计方案。
设计一:
螺杆直径(即螺纹外径)d1、螺距(即螺纹间距)S维持不变,螺杆槽半径(即螺杆轴半径)R2与离叶片的间距(即螺旋槽与排料口的间距)L可采用线性变化,L=k×R2+C,如图9所示;或者采用非线性变化,L=a×R2 2+b×R2+c,或L=a×R2 3+b×R2 2+c×R2+d,如图10所示,呈现靠近叶片位置的螺杆槽直径小于两边的螺杆槽直径。在螺杆螺距、直径维持不变,螺杆输运量与螺杆输运的横截面积成正比例线性关系,也就是与螺杆槽的深度成平方关系,每旋转一周,向前输运量等于一个螺距内包含的物料量,因此在米箱各处对物料阻力相同的条件下,推荐使用L=a×R2 2+b×R2+c的方案,如果米箱不同位置对物料的阻力不同,需要根据阻力分布采用线性或非线性方案。
换言之,螺杆采用等径、等距螺杆,螺槽深度的直径为线性或非线性变化,靠近螺杆中间位置的螺杆槽直径小于米箱两边的螺杆槽直径,通过螺槽深度的线性或非线性变化,逐渐增加螺杆输运方向上的米粒质量流率,也就是米箱的米粒整体均匀减少,保证米粒高度的一致性。
设计二:
螺杆直径d1(即螺纹外径)、螺槽深度H维持不变,螺距S可采用线性或非线性变化,使与离叶片的间距L为线性变化,如图11所示;或者非线性变化,S=a×L 2+b×L+c,或S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,如图12所示,呈现靠近叶片位置的螺距大于米箱两边的螺距。在螺杆直径、螺槽深度维持不变的条件下,螺杆输运量与螺杆螺距成正比例线性关系,每旋转一周,向前输运量等于一个螺距内包含的物料量,因此在米箱各处对物料阻力相同的条件下,推荐使用S=k×L+C的方案,如果米箱不同位置对物料的阻力不同,需要根据阻力分布采用其他线性或非线性方案。
换言之,螺杆采用等径等深螺杆,螺距为线性或非线性变化,靠近螺杆中 间位置的螺距大于米箱两边的螺距,通过螺距的线性或非线性变化,逐渐增加螺杆输运方向上的米粒质量流率,也就是米箱的米粒整体均匀减少,保证米粒高度的一致性。
其中,根据螺杆输运特性,设计一将螺杆设计为等径、等距,螺槽深度线性或非线性变化结构,并且靠近叶片位置的螺杆槽直径小于米箱两边的螺杆槽直径。螺杆在旋转输运物料过程中,由于螺槽深度的线性或非线性变化,导致螺杆沿着输运方向米粒质量流率逐渐增加,需要米箱内的米粒沿着输运方向不断往螺杆内补充,使得米粒高度整体均匀减少,保证了米粒高度的一致性。
设计二将螺杆设计为等径等深,螺距线性或非线性变化结构,靠近叶片中间位置的螺距大于米箱两边的螺距。螺杆在旋转输运物料过程中,由于螺距的线性或非线性变化,导致螺杆沿着输运方向米粒质量流率逐渐增加,需要米箱内的米粒沿着输运方向不断往螺杆内补充,使得米粒高度整体均匀减少,保证了米粒高度的一致性。
进一步地,上述实施例还可以做以下变形,也能够实现本申请的目的:
单向螺旋(右旋或左旋)采用等距等径,螺槽深度为线性或非线性变化,集中往一端运输,保证输运物料沿输运长度均匀下降,如图13所示;单向螺旋(右旋或左旋)采用等径等深,间距为线性或非线性变化,集中往一端运输,保证输运物料沿输运长度均匀下降,如图14所示;螺旋槽深度变化与螺杆轴直径变化效果等同,都相当于改变输运面积。
综上所述,本申请提供的物料存储装置,通过设置防堵罩,利用防堵罩与储料箱的内壁面之间的过料间隙来对大颗粒物料进行过滤,从而能够防止大颗粒粮食误入导致输料管堵塞或者卡机现象;同时,通过合理设置过料间隙的宽度,还能够调节储料箱内各个部位的下料量,进而控制储料箱各个部位的下料速度,使各个部位的下料速度趋于一致,进而使得储料箱内的物料趋于平整,从而提高了通过传感器来检测储料箱内的实时物料量的准确度。
如图7和图8所示,本申请第三方面的实施例提供了一种物料存储装置,包括:储料箱10和推送螺杆20。
具体地,储料箱10开设有用于输出物料的排料口11;推送螺杆20设置于储料箱10的底部,推送螺杆20的出料部位临近排料口11,能够在旋转时 沿其轴向将物料推送至排料口11处,且按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺旋槽的容积逐渐减小;其中,记螺旋槽的容积为V,螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离为L,V与L满足函数关系:V=f(L)。
本申请第三方面的实施例提供的物料存储装置,通过改进推送螺杆20的结构,使其螺旋槽的容积按照由出料部位向远离出料部位的方向逐渐减小,即:以推送螺杆20推送物料的方向为基准,螺旋槽的容积由下游向上游逐渐减小,则螺旋槽能够容纳并推送的物料量由上游向下游逐渐增加,因此上游螺旋槽推送的物料量小于下游螺旋槽实际能够容纳的物料量,则下游螺旋槽上方附近的物料会自动向下落入螺旋槽中以填补不足,因而推送螺杆20推送至排料口11处的物料不仅仅只是靠近储料箱10内壁区域的物料,还有储料箱10中部区域的物料,从而实现了均匀给料,使得米箱内的物料保持水平,有效改善了物料隆起现象,提高了检测装置判断储料箱10内的实时物料量的准确性。换言之,由于螺旋槽的容积沿推送螺杆20的送料方向逐渐增加,需要储料箱10内的物料沿着送料方向不断往推送螺杆20内补充,这能够逐渐增加推送螺杆20送料方向上的物料质量流率,进而使得米粒高度整体均匀减小,保证了物料高度的一致性。
同时,由于螺旋槽的容积V由下游向上游逐渐减小,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L的增加,螺旋槽的容积V逐渐减小,因而V与L负相关;且螺旋槽的容积V和螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L满足函数关系,这保证了V与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L,即可得到螺旋槽的容积V的精确值,使得螺旋槽的容积V(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,有利于储料箱10底部各个部位横向输送物料和纵向重力落料的综合作用更加均衡,从而进一步提高储料箱10给料的均匀性,进一步提高储料箱10内物料的平整度;此外,也便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构,以缩短设计周期,进而缩短产品的生产周期。
下面结合一些实施例来详细描述本申请提供的物料存储装置的具体结构。
实施例一
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距保持 不变,螺旋槽的深度逐渐减小,如图9所示,记螺旋槽的深度为H,H与L满足函数关系:L=f 1(H)。
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺旋槽的深度逐渐减小,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距保持不变,即:以推送螺杆20推送物料的方向为基准,推送螺杆20的螺旋槽深度由上游向下游逐渐增加,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距由上游向下游保持不变,这一方面使得推送螺杆20的结构相对规整,相较于常规螺杆只需改变螺旋槽深度即可,便于加工成型,另一方面使得各螺旋槽的容积能够形成梯度变化,不至于因螺纹间距和螺旋槽深度同时变化而产生过大差别或者不易控制,从而进一步提高了给料的均匀性。
其中,由于推送螺杆20的螺旋槽深度H由上游向下游逐渐增加,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L的减小,螺旋槽的深度H逐渐增加,因而H与L负相关;又由于螺旋槽的容积等于螺旋槽的等效横截面积乘以螺纹间距,因而当螺纹间距保持不变时,螺旋槽的容积与螺旋槽的等效横截面积之间满足一次函数关系;而螺旋槽呈圆环状,因而螺旋槽的等效横截面积与螺旋槽的深度之间满足函数关系,故而螺旋槽的深度H和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L也满足函数关系。这保证了H与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L,即可得到螺旋槽的深度H的精确值,使得螺旋槽的深度H(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,由于螺旋槽的深度H是推送螺杆20更为直观的尺寸特征,因而更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构,以进一步缩短设计周期,进而进一步缩短产品的生产周期。
进一步地,由于螺旋槽的深度H等于推送螺杆20的螺纹外径(记为d1)与螺杆轴径(记为d2)之差的一半,即:H=(d1-d2)/2,因而当螺纹外径保持不变时,螺杆轴的半径R2(R2=d2÷2=d1/2-H)与L也满足函数关系,由于螺杆轴的半径R2也是推送螺杆20更为直观的尺寸特征,因而也更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构;且由于H与L负相关,因而R2与L正相关,即:随着L的增加,R2逐渐增大。
当然,由于螺旋槽的容积由螺旋槽深度和螺纹间距共同决定,故而也可以仅通过改变螺纹间距或者同时改变螺旋槽深度和螺纹间距来实现螺旋槽的容 积变化,由于上述实施例均能够实现本申请的目的,且均没有脱离本申请的设计思想和宗旨,因而均应在本申请的保护范围内。在上述实施例中,按照由出料部位向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺杆轴径逐渐增大。
值得说明的是,由于螺旋槽是立体结构,具有一定的长度,故而一个螺旋槽沿推送螺杆20轴线方向的深度不一定是完全相同,可以存在变化,又由于螺旋槽本身的深度不会相差过大,且该实施例中螺纹间距保持不变,即各个螺旋槽的长度相同,因而可以定义各个螺纹槽相同部位处的深度为该螺旋槽的深度(比如定义螺纹槽上游端的深度、或者螺旋槽下游端的深度或者螺旋槽正中处的深度),这样,既能够相对准确地保证螺旋槽的等效横截面积随着与排料口11的间距大小发生相应变化,又能够限制降低推送螺杆20的设计难度。
具体地,H与L满足一次函数关系:L=k×H+C或者H=k×L+C,其中,k和C为常数,且k不等于0。
L=k×H+C或者H=k×L+C,即:H与L满足一次函数关系,则H随着L线性变化,这使得推送螺杆20的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,因而常数k<0,常数C>0。
进一步地,推送螺杆20包括:第一螺杆、第二螺杆和连接轴,如图8至图14所示。其中,第一螺杆的一端连接至储料箱10的一侧内壁,其另一端临近排料口11设置;第二螺杆与第一螺杆共轴设置,且与第一螺杆的螺纹设置方向相反,其一端连接至储料箱10的另一侧内壁,其另一端临近排料口11设置;连接轴对应设置在排料口11的上方,分别固定连接至第一螺杆的另一端与第二螺杆的另一端,以使第一螺杆与第二螺杆同步旋转。
推送螺杆20由第一螺杆、连接轴以及第二螺杆依次固定连接形成,则连接轴所在的区域即为推送螺杆20的出料部位,便于将推送螺杆20的出料部位及储料箱10的排料口11设置在中间区域,进一步提高给料均匀性;并且第一螺杆与第二螺杆设置有反向的螺纹,使得第一螺杆和第二螺杆可以共用同一驱动装置60驱动,且在旋转过程中能够分别同步将外侧端的物料推送至排料口11,有效节省电机用量,精简产品组成部件,降低产品成本;且形成了双向螺旋卸料系统,相对于传统米仓通过斜度利用重力实现物料外排的方案而言,可 以实现储料箱10内的物料无局部残留,从而避免残留的物料变质引起储料箱10内物料整体质量下降的问题;此外,通过利用推料螺杆将位于储料箱10内底部位置处的物料推至排料口11处进行外排,可以优先将位于储料箱10底部的保存时间较长的物料排出,如此实现根据时间顺序对储料箱10内的物料进行更新,提升储料箱10内物料的整体质量。其中,第一螺杆、第二螺杆与连接轴可以通过固定组装生成,也可以通过一体成型的方式制成。
实施例二
与实施例一的区别在于:H与L满足二次函数关系:L=a×H 2+b×H+c或者H=a×L 2+b×L+c,其中,a、b和c为常数,且a不等于0。
L=a×H 2+b×H+c或者H=a×L 2+b×L+c,即:H与L满足二次函数关系,则H随着L非线性变化。如前所述,螺旋槽的容积V与L满足函数关系V=f(L),当螺纹间距保持不变时,螺旋槽的容积与螺旋槽的等效横截面积之间满足一次函数关系,螺旋槽的等效横截面积与螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺旋槽的深度的平方H 2和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L满足函数关系。因此,当V与L满足一次函数关系时,H与L满足L=a×H 2+b×H+c的二次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料;当V与L 4满足一次函数关系时,H与L满足H=a×L 2+b×L+c的二次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于H>0,L>0,且H与L负相关,因而常数a<0,常数c>0,常数b的大小不受限制。
实施例三
与实施例一的区别在于:H与L满足三次函数关系:L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d或者L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d,其中,a、b、c和d为常数,且a不等于0。
L=a×H 3+b×H 2+c×H+d或者H=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,即:H与L满足三次函数关系,则H也随着L非线性变化,也实现了H与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,H>0,且L与H负相关,而三次函数的图像变化较多,因而只要该函数在直角坐标系的第一象限中存在单调下降的部分即可,至于常数a、b、c、d的大小则不受具体限制。
值得说明的是,由于不同储料箱10的具体结构和材质存在差别,储料箱10内盛装的物料的种类也多种多样,因而储料箱10内各处对物料的阻力也存在差别。故而,影响储料箱10内各个部位的下料速度的因素也不尽相同,故而V与L可能满足一次函数关系,也可能满足二次函数关系、三次函数关系、四次函数等关系等,且具体的函数关系也可能不同。因而推送螺杆20的具体形状也不局限于上述函数关系的限定,在实际生产过程中可以根据具体产品合理设计,且上述函数中各个常数的具体数值也可以根据具体产品进行调整。
实施例四
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,螺旋槽的螺纹深度保持不变,推送螺杆20的螺纹间距逐渐减小,记推送螺杆20的螺纹间距为S,S与L满足函数关系:S=f 2(L)。
按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺纹深度保持不便,螺纹间距逐渐减小,即:以推送螺杆20推送物料的方向为基准,螺纹间距由下游向上游逐渐减小,而螺旋槽深度保持不变,这样确保了螺旋槽的容积由上游向下游逐渐增加,进而实现均匀给料的目的;同时,该方案使得推送螺杆20的结构相对规整,便于加工成型,并使得各螺旋槽的容积能够形成梯度变化,不至于因螺纹间距和螺旋槽深度同时变化而产生过大差别或者不易控制,从而进一步提高了给料的均匀性。
其中,由于推送螺杆20的螺纹间距S由下游向上游逐渐减小,即:随着螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L的增加,螺纹间距S逐渐减小,因而S与L负相关;又如前所述,由于螺旋槽的容积等于螺旋槽的等效横截面积乘以螺纹间距,当螺旋槽的深度保持不变时,螺旋槽的等效横截面积保持不变,因而螺旋槽的容积与螺纹间距之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺纹间距S和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L也满足函数关系。这保证了S与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口11之间的距离L,即可得到螺纹间距S的精确值,使得螺纹间距S(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,由于螺纹间距S是推送螺杆20更为直观的尺寸特征,因而更加便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆20的具体结构,以进一步缩短设计周期,进而进一步缩短产品的生产周期。
具体地,S与L满足一次函数关系:S=k×L+C,其中,k和C为常数,且k不等于0。
S=k×L+C,即:S与L满足一次函数关系,则S随着L线性变化,这使得推送螺杆20的结构较为规整,便于加工成型。此外,如前所述,螺旋槽的容积V与L满足函数关系V=f(L),当螺旋槽的深度保持不变时,螺纹槽的容积与螺纹间距之间满足一次函数关系,故而螺纹间距S和和螺旋槽与出料口之间的距离L满足函数关系。因此,当V与L满足一次函数关系时,S与L满足一次函数关系,更加准确,更有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,因而常数k<0,常数C>0。
实施例五
与实施例四的区别在于:S与L满足二次函数关系:S=a×L 2+b×L+c,其中,a、b和c为常数,且a不等于0。
S=a×L 2+b×L+c,即:S与L满足三次函数关系,则S随着L非线性变化,也实现了S与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,因而常数a<0,常数c>0,常数b的大小不受限制。
实施例六
与实施例四的区别在于:S与L满足三次函数关系:S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,其中,a、b、c和d为常数,且a不等于0。
S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,即:S与L满足三次函数关系,则S也随着L非线性变化,也实现了S与L的准确对应变化,也有利于均匀给料。
可以理解的是,由于L>0,S>0,且S与L负相关,而三次函数的图像变化较多,因而只要该函数在直角坐标系的第一象限中存在单调下降的部分即可,至于常数a、b、c、d的大小则不受具体限制。
实施例七
与实施例二的区别在于:推送螺杆20的数量为一个,排料口11靠近储料箱10的边缘部位。
实施例八
与实施例四的区别在于:推送螺杆20的数量为一个,排料口11靠近储料箱10的边缘部位。
在实施例七和实施例八中,只设置一个推送螺杆20,相应地,排料口11临近储料箱10的边缘部位,在提高给料均匀性的基础上,精简了部件数量,简化了产品结构,有利于节约生产成本。在本申请的另一些实施例中,推送螺杆20的数量为多个,多个推送螺杆20以排料口11为中心呈放射状布置在排料口11的外侧。
通过设置多个推送螺杆20,多个推送螺杆20以排料口11为中心呈放射状布置在排料口11的外侧,则多个推送螺杆20能够同时推送储料箱10多个部位的物料,进而显著提高了给料速度。
在上述任一实施例中,按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向,推送螺杆20的螺纹外径保持不变,如图9至图14所示。
螺纹外径保持不变,使得推送螺杆20的结构较为规整,便于加工成型,也便于安装,降低了对储料箱10的形状要求,便于安装;且推送螺杆20与储料箱10的内壁面之间的距离可以保持不变,进而保证物料的下料速度基本均匀。进一步地,对于上述螺纹间距保持不变螺旋槽深度发生变化的方案而言,只需改变螺杆轴径即可;对于上述螺旋槽深度保持不变螺纹间距发生变化的方案而言,只需改变螺纹位置即可。
在上述任一实施例中,物料存储装置还包括:输送叶轮40,设置在储料箱10的底部,并与排料口11相对应,用于把上方的物料向下输送至排料口11处,如图8至图14所示。
物料存储装置还包括输送叶轮40,输送叶轮40能够将其上方的物料通过叶片旋转传递到下方,进而通过排料口11排出,从而实现了储料箱10的纵向排料,与单独设置推送螺杆20的结构相比,输送效率更高,并且能够通过螺杆转动的速度和转动圈数精准控制物料输送量;且输送叶轮40位于排料口11的正上方,因而能够促进排料口11上方附近的物料输出,从而进一步缓解储料箱10中部区域物料隆起的现象,进一步提高给料均匀性。
进一步地,输送叶轮40可以与推送螺杆20同轴连接,这样可以与推送螺杆20通过同一驱动装置60实现联动式控制,当然也可以与推送螺杆20采用 不同的驱动装置60分别控制。优选地,输送叶轮40套装在第一螺杆与第二螺杆之间的连接轴上。
在上述任一实施例中,物料存储装置还包括:弧形物料输送腔80,如图7和图8所示,由向下开口的弧面与下方的平面围合形成,排料口11平滑延伸至弧面上,以使弧形物料输送腔80通过排料口11与储料箱10导通。
弧形物料输送腔80由向下开口的弧面与下方的平面围合形成,设置于储料箱10底部的排料口11平滑延伸至弧面上,则通过推送螺杆20以及输送叶轮40输送至排料口11的物料会导入弧形物料输送腔80内,通过在弧形物料输送腔80的一端设置风机,在另一端开设开口,并与进料管连通,能够使进入弧形物料输送腔80内的物料在风机的驱动力导入进料管,进而排到物料清洗装置内,执行物料清洗操作。
在上述任一实施例中,物料存储装置还包括:驱动装置60,如图7所示,与推送螺杆20对应连接,用于驱动推送螺杆20旋转。
在该实施例中,通过设置驱动装置60,实现了推送螺杆20的可控式自动旋转,可以根据输送的物料的量确定输送速度,从而有利于提升输送效率。
具体地,驱动装置60包括电机,电机的输出轴与推送螺杆20同轴连接;或者,驱动装置60包括电机和与电机的输出轴相连的齿轮传动机构,齿轮传动机构与推送螺杆20相连接。
驱动装置60包括电机,电机的输出轴与推送螺杆20同轴连接,即:电机直接带动推送螺杆20旋转,动力传递效率高,且所需的零部件数量较少,简化了产品结构,有利于节约成本。
或者,驱动装置60包括电机和齿轮传动机构,齿轮传动机构与推送螺杆20相连接,即:电机通过齿轮传动机构间接带动推送螺杆20旋转,齿轮传动机构可以实现增速效果,有利于减小电机能耗,且便于根据产品结构合理布局电机的位置。
进一步地,对于前述实施例中推送螺杆20包括第一螺杆、第二螺杆和连接轴的实施例而言,电机或者齿轮传递机构与第一螺杆或者第二螺杆相连;对于推送螺杆20的数量为多个的实施例而言,驱动装置60的数量也为多个,分别驱动各个推送螺杆20。
本申请第四方面的实施例提供了一种烹饪器具,包括:烹饪主体和如第三方面实施例中任一项的物料存储装置,其排料口11能够与烹饪主体的内部空间相连通。
本申请第四方面的实施例提供的烹饪器具,因包括第三方面实施例中任一项的物料存储装置,因而具有上述任一实施例所具有的一切有益效果,在此不再赘述。
至于烹饪主体的内部空间,不受具体限制,比如:可以是上盖内的清洗腔体,物料送入清洗腔体内进行清洗;也可以是内锅,物料送入内锅中进行清洗或者烹饪。
在上述实施例中,烹饪器具为电饭煲。
当然不局限于电饭煲,也可以为电压力锅、电炖锅、电蒸锅、电煮锅、豆浆机等。
下面结合一些具体实施例来详细描述本申请提供的烹饪器具的具体结构,并与现有技术进行对比。
目前,在全自动电饭煲中,设计了一种高容积率米箱(即储料箱),底部设有螺旋输料装置(即推送螺杆),高容积率米箱底部两端的双向螺杆系统可代替传统米仓通过控制角度达到输运米粒的功能。工作状态下,电机驱动螺杆转动,带动两端螺旋结构将米箱两端米粒输运至中间,然后经由底部中间位置的卸料口卸出。由于螺旋结构紧贴米仓(即储料箱)底部,即使米量较少时也能达到较好的运输效果。在米箱的双向螺旋下米系统中,常规的等径等距等深螺杆容易造成米箱中间部位米隆起现象,不能通过传感器精准判断米仓实时米量。
基于此,本申请根据螺杆输运的特点,设计了等径等距不等深及等径等深不等距两种螺杆结构,满足均匀输送物料的要求。
具体地,本申请设计的一种米箱及下米结构,如图7所示,主要由米箱(即储料箱)、送米机构(即物料输送腔+送料管等结构)和电机组成。在米箱的底部设有双向螺旋螺杆,螺杆的一端与电机相连,可以是直接与电机输出轴连接,也可以通过齿轮或者皮带连接;在螺杆中间设有叶片,与螺杆采用同轴传动,叶片两端的螺杆螺旋方向相反。
米箱及下米结构的剖面图,如图8所示,11为下米口(即排料口),12为双向螺旋螺杆,一端为左旋,一端为右旋,螺旋方向相反;13为叶片(即输送叶轮),米箱两端的螺杆与叶片采用同轴传动,总体效果保证米粒往中间运输。
工作时,电机带动螺杆旋转,将米箱两侧的米粒往中间运输,达到中间的米粒通过叶片翻转从米箱底部的下米口进入送米机构。传统螺杆采用等距、等径、螺槽等深方式设计,工作过程中,只有螺杆与米箱接触的端部会有米粒填充输运,其余螺杆部分米粒无法填充,导致米粒不平整。
根据螺杆输运的性质,提出了以下两种设计方案。
设计一:
螺杆直径(即螺纹外径)d1、螺距(即螺纹间距)S维持不变,螺杆槽半径(即螺杆轴半径)R2与离叶片的间距(即螺旋槽与排料口的间距)L可采用线性变化,L=k×R2+C,如图9所示;或者采用非线性变化,L=a×R2 2+b×R2+c,或L=a×R2 3+b×R2 2+c×R2+d,如图10所示,呈现靠近叶片位置的螺杆槽直径小于两边的螺杆槽直径。在螺杆螺距、直径维持不变,螺杆输运量与螺杆输运的横截面积成正比例线性关系,也就是与螺杆槽的深度成平方关系,每旋转一周,向前输运量等于一个螺距内包含的物料量,因此在米箱各处对物料阻力相同的条件下,推荐使用L=a×R2 2+b×R2+c的方案,如果米箱不同位置对物料的阻力不同,需要根据阻力分布采用线性或非线性方案。
换言之,螺杆采用等径、等距螺杆,螺槽深度的直径为线性或非线性变化,靠近螺杆中间位置的螺杆槽直径小于米箱两边的螺杆槽直径,通过螺槽深度的线性或非线性变化,逐渐增加螺杆输运方向上的米粒质量流率,也就是米箱的米粒整体均匀减少,保证米粒高度的一致性。
设计二:
螺杆直径d1(即螺纹外径)、螺槽深度H维持不变,螺距S可采用线性或非线性变化,使与离叶片的间距L为线性变化,如图11所示;或者非线性变化,S=a×L 2+b×L+c,或S=a×L 3+b×L 2+c×L+d,如图12所示,呈现靠近叶片位置的螺距大于米箱两边的螺距。在螺杆直径、螺槽深度维持不变的条件下,螺杆输运量与螺杆螺距成正比例线性关系,每旋转一周,向前输运量等于一个 螺距内包含的物料量,因此在米箱各处对物料阻力相同的条件下,推荐使用S=k×L+C的方案,如果米箱不同位置对物料的阻力不同,需要根据阻力分布采用其他线性或非线性方案。
换言之,螺杆采用等径等深螺杆,螺距为线性或非线性变化,靠近螺杆中间位置的螺距大于米箱两边的螺距,通过螺距的线性或非线性变化,逐渐增加螺杆输运方向上的米粒质量流率,也就是米箱的米粒整体均匀减少,保证米粒高度的一致性。
其中,根据螺杆输运特性,设计一将螺杆设计为等径、等距,螺槽深度线性或非线性变化结构,并且靠近叶片位置的螺杆槽直径小于米箱两边的螺杆槽直径。螺杆在旋转输运物料过程中,由于螺槽深度的线性或非线性变化,导致螺杆沿着输运方向米粒质量流率逐渐增加,需要米箱内的米粒沿着输运方向不断往螺杆内补充,使得米粒高度整体均匀减少,保证了米粒高度的一致性。
设计二将螺杆设计为等径等深,螺距线性或非线性变化结构,靠近叶片中间位置的螺距大于米箱两边的螺距。螺杆在旋转输运物料过程中,由于螺距的线性或非线性变化,导致螺杆沿着输运方向米粒质量流率逐渐增加,需要米箱内的米粒沿着输运方向不断往螺杆内补充,使得米粒高度整体均匀减少,保证了米粒高度的一致性。
进一步地,上述实施例还可以做以下变形,也能够实现本申请的目的:
单向螺旋(右旋或左旋)采用等距等径,螺槽深度为线性或非线性变化,集中往一端运输,保证输运物料沿输运长度均匀下降,如图13所示;单向螺旋(右旋或左旋)采用等径等深,间距为线性或非线性变化,集中往一端运输,保证输运物料沿输运长度均匀下降,如图14所示;螺旋槽深度变化与螺杆轴直径变化效果等同,都相当于改变输运面积。
综上所述,上述实施例提供的物料存储装置,通过改进推送螺杆的结构,使其螺旋槽的容积按照由出料部位向远离出料部位的方向逐渐减小,即:以推送螺杆推送物料的方向为基准,螺旋槽的容积由下游向上游逐渐减小,则螺旋槽能够容纳并推送的物料量由上游向下游逐渐增加,因此上游螺旋槽推送的物料量小于下游螺旋槽实际能够容纳的物料量,则下游螺旋槽上方附近的物料会自动向下落入螺旋槽中以填补不足,因而推送螺杆推送至排料口处的物料不仅 仅只是靠近储料箱内壁区域的物料,还有储料箱中部区域的物料,从而实现了均匀给料,使得米箱内的物料保持水平,有效改善了物料隆起现象,提高了检测装置判断储料箱内的实时物料量的准确性。换言之,由于螺旋槽的容积沿推送螺杆的送料方向逐渐增加,需要储料箱内的物料沿着送料方向不断往推送螺杆内补充,这能够逐渐增加推送螺杆送料方向上的物料质量流率,进而使得米粒高度整体均匀减小,保证了物料高度的一致性。同时,螺旋槽的容积V和螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L满足函数关系,这保证了V与L的准确对应,因而只要确定了螺旋槽与排料口之间的距离L,即可得到螺旋槽的容积V的精确值,使得螺旋槽的容积V(按照由出料部位指向远离出料部位的方向)逐渐减小的程度得到精确控制,有利于储料箱底部各个部位横向输送物料和纵向重力落料的综合作用更加均衡,从而进一步提高储料箱给料的均匀性,进一步提高储料箱内物料的平整度;此外,也便于设计人员根据函数关系快速设计出推送螺杆的具体结构,以缩短设计周期,进而缩短产品的生产周期。
