Description

本発明は、液垂れ防止手段およびそれを備えたノズルに関する。   The present invention relates to a dripping prevention means and a nozzle including the same.

従来から、飲料を注ぐためのノズルにおいて、飲料を注ぎ終わったときに、ノズルの先端に残った飲料が流れ出てくる液垂れ(後垂れ)現象が知られており、この対策が講じられてきた。このような例としては、シロップ用のノズルの注ぎ口にステンレス製金網を設け、該金網の網目の部分でシロップの表面張力を利用して注ぎ口を塞ぎ、液垂れを防止することや(特許文献1)、コーヒー用のノズルの注ぎ口に小さな穴を多数分散して穿孔したパンチングメタルを1枚または複数枚装着し、該パンチングメタルの穴の中にコーヒーを分散させ、表面張力により各穴の中に保持し、液垂れを防止すること(特許文献2)が挙げられる。   Conventionally, in a nozzle for pouring a beverage, when the beverage is finished pouring, a dripping (rear dripping) phenomenon in which the beverage remaining at the tip of the nozzle flows out is known, and this countermeasure has been taken. . As an example of this, a stainless steel wire mesh is provided at the spout of a nozzle for syrup, and the spout is closed using the surface tension of the syrup at the mesh of the wire mesh to prevent dripping (patent Reference 1), one or more punching metals with a large number of small holes dispersed in the spout of a coffee nozzle, and the coffee is dispersed in the holes of the punching metal. Holding the inside and preventing dripping (Patent Document 2).

上記のようなシロップ用やコーヒー用のノズル以外にも、豆腐製造装置において、凝固剤を含む豆乳を容器ごとに注入するためのノズルが知られているが(特許文献3)、豆乳排出ノズルに、液垂れを防ぐ手段として金網やパンチングメタルを用いた例は記載されていない。

一般に、流動性の食品分野は、異物(固形物)の混入を防ぐため最大限の努力がなされているので、流動性の食品を排出して容器に充填する段階よりも前の段階で、既に異物は除去されているため、該食品を排出するノズルに、例えば、従来から知られる液垂れ防止を目的とした金網を用いても、金網が目詰まりするようなことはない。大豆から豆乳を得る製造工程においても、まず大豆を水に浸漬する前に、大豆に付着した砂やゴミを洗い流し、またその後水に浸漬した大豆をすり潰し生呉を得る段階でも、大豆の種皮などの繊維分を除き、さらに得た生呉を煮て煮呉にし、煮呉を絞って豆乳を得る段階でも、絞りかす(おから)を除去する。そして、一連の作業工程中、外部からその他の異物が入り込まないように細心の注意が払われている。したがって、豆乳を製品容器に分注する段階では、基本的に豆乳以外の異物(固形物)は含まれていないので、金網が目詰まりするようなことはないと考えられる。   In general, in the field of fluid foods, the maximum effort is made to prevent the introduction of foreign substances (solids), so it is already in a stage before the stage of discharging fluid foods and filling them into containers. Since the foreign matter has been removed, even if, for example, a conventionally known wire mesh for the purpose of preventing dripping is used for the nozzle for discharging the food, the wire mesh is not clogged. Even in the manufacturing process of obtaining soy milk from soybeans, before soaking the soybeans in the water, the sand and garbage attached to the soybeans are washed away, and then the soybeans soaked in the water are crushed to obtain the raw koji. In addition, the raw kure obtained is boiled to make boiled squeeze, and even in the stage of squeezing the boiled squeeze to obtain soy milk, the squeezed residue is removed. Further, great care is taken to prevent other foreign substances from entering from the outside during a series of work steps. Therefore, at the stage of dispensing soy milk into the product container, foreign matter (solid matter) other than soy milk is basically not included, so it is considered that the wire mesh will not be clogged.

しかし本発明者が、豆腐製造装置の豆乳排出ノズルに液垂れ防止手段として金網を取り付けたところ、豆乳を排出し続けると湯葉様成分によって金網を目詰まりさせる結果となり、一旦目詰まりが生じると、所望の供給量がノズルから排出されなくなり、製品容器が豆乳で満たされず、不足部分に気泡が入り、商品として出荷できなくなってしまう。定期的に金網を洗浄することも考えられるが、これでは洗浄中は製造ラインを止めることとなり、作業負担がかかり生産効率が低下してしまう。
本発明は、上記の問題を認識した上での、目詰まりすることのない豆乳排出ノズルの液垂れ(後垂れ)を防止するための手段を提供するという全く新しい課題に基づくものである。
However, when the present inventor attached a wire mesh as a dripping prevention means to the soymilk discharge nozzle of the tofu production device, the result is that the wire mesh is clogged by the yuba-like component if the soymilk is continuously discharged, and once clogging occurs, The desired supply amount will not be discharged from the nozzle, the product container will not be filled with soy milk, air bubbles will enter the insufficient part, and it will not be possible to ship as a product. Although it is conceivable to periodically clean the wire mesh, this would stop the production line during the cleaning, resulting in a burden on the work and a decrease in production efficiency.
The present invention is based on a completely new problem of providing a means for preventing liquid dripping (sag dripping) of a soy milk discharge nozzle which is not clogged while recognizing the above-mentioned problems.

本発明者らは、上記の課題を解決するため、鋭意研究を重ねる中で、驚くべきことに、豆乳排出ノズルに、複数の孔を所定の距離だけ離して備えた板状部材を設けると、供給を止めた際にノズルに残った豆乳の液垂れを防止できるだけでなく、長時間にわたって目詰まりをすることのない液垂れ防止手段とすることを見出し、さらに研究を進めた結果、本発明を完成するに至った。   In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the inventors of the present invention, surprisingly, while providing a plate-like member provided with a plurality of holes separated by a predetermined distance in the soymilk discharge nozzle, As well as preventing dripping of the soy milk remaining in the nozzle when the supply is stopped, it has been found that it becomes a dripping prevention means that does not clog for a long time, and further research has been conducted. It came to be completed.

すなわち、本発明は、豆乳排出ノズルに設けられる、複数の孔を有する板状部材であって、隣接する孔同士の距離が各孔の直近の端と端で互いに2mm以上離れていることを特徴とする、前記板状部材に関する。
さらに本発明は、ステンレス製である、前記の板状部材に関する。
また本発明は、孔が、円形である、前記の板状部材に関する。
That is, the present invention is a plate-like member having a plurality of holes provided in the soy milk discharge nozzle, wherein the distance between adjacent holes is 2 mm or more away from each other at the closest end of each hole. It is related with the said plate-shaped member.
Furthermore, this invention relates to the said plate-shaped member made from stainless steel.
Moreover, this invention relates to the said plate-shaped member whose hole is circular.

さらに本発明は、孔の直径が、2mm〜5mmである、前記の板状部材に関する。
また本発明は、前記の板状部材を排出口近傍に1枚または2枚以上備えた、豆乳排出ノズルに関する。
Furthermore, this invention relates to the said plate-shaped member whose diameter of a hole is 2 mm-5 mm.
The present invention also relates to a soymilk discharge nozzle provided with one or more plate-like members in the vicinity of the discharge port.

本発明の板状部材によれば、隣接する孔同士の距離が各孔の直近の端と端で互いに所定の距離だけ離れているので、タンパク質が熱変性によって凝固し膜を生じるいわゆるラムスデン現象によって、豆乳(豆腐の原料となる凝固剤入り豆乳を含む)中に生成する湯葉様成分が、隣接する孔の間をまたいでしまうことなどによる目詰まりが起こらなくなり、また同時に、液垂れを防止することができる。このため、供給量を一定化でき、とくに豆腐製品において、気泡が入った不良品の発生を防ぐことができる。また、目詰まりしないので、短期間に洗浄を繰り返す必要がなく、作業負担が軽減され、生産効率が向上する。   According to the plate-like member of the present invention, since the distance between adjacent holes is a predetermined distance from the nearest end of each hole, the protein is solidified by heat denaturation to form a film by the so-called Ramsden phenomenon. In addition, the yuba-like ingredients produced in soymilk (including soymilk with a coagulant that is the raw material for tofu) will not cause clogging due to straddling between adjacent holes, and at the same time prevent dripping be able to. For this reason, supply amount can be made constant and generation | occurrence | production of the inferior goods which contained the bubble can be prevented especially in tofu products. Further, since clogging does not occur, it is not necessary to repeat cleaning in a short time, the work load is reduced, and production efficiency is improved.

本発明の豆乳排出ノズルの液垂れ防止を可能にする板状部材は、豆乳排出ノズルに設けられ、所定間隔の複数の孔を有する板状部材である。前記複数の孔は、好ましくは、互いに直近の端と端が、少なくとも2mm以上離れており、より好ましくは2〜10mm、さらに好ましくは2〜5mmの間隔で形成されている。孔の距離が小さくなるにつれて目詰まりをおこしやすくなり、大きくなるにつれて豆乳の流出速度が制限されやすくなる。また、本発明の板状部材の厚さにとくに制限はないが、1〜5mm程度の厚さが好適である。   The plate-like member that enables the soymilk discharge nozzle of the present invention to prevent dripping is a plate-like member that is provided in the soymilk discharge nozzle and has a plurality of holes at predetermined intervals. The plurality of holes are preferably formed such that the ends closest to each other are at least 2 mm apart, more preferably 2 to 10 mm, and even more preferably 2 to 5 mm. As the hole distance decreases, clogging is likely to occur, and as the hole distance increases, the soymilk outflow rate is likely to be limited. Moreover, although there is no restriction | limiting in particular in the thickness of the plate-shaped member of this invention, The thickness of about 1-5 mm is suitable.

The soybean milk discharge nozzle of the present invention includes the plate-shaped member of the present invention in the vicinity of the discharge port. The plate-like member may include only one plate or two or more, but preferably two or more. In the soymilk discharge nozzle of the present invention, it is particularly preferable to provide two or more plate-like members at a predetermined interval. Although the space | interval of a plate-shaped member can be suitably designed according to the outflow speed of soymilk, it is a space | interval of 1 mm-100 mm, Preferably, it is 2-5 mm. For example, it is preferable to provide two or three parallel plate-like members at intervals of 3 mm.
The diameter of the nozzle is not particularly limited, but is 10 to 90 mm, preferably 20 to 60 mm, and particularly preferably 20 to 40 mm from the viewpoint of the soy milk outflow rate and flow rate.

本発明の豆乳排出ノズルは、いかなる豆乳においても用いることができ、例えば、凝固剤を含む豆腐製造用の豆乳に限らず、飲料用の豆乳であっても用いることができる。凝固剤を含む豆腐製造用の豆乳の場合、凝固剤は、粗製海水塩化マグネシウム(海水にがり)、乳化にがり、塩化マグネシウム溶液、硫化カルシウム溶液、グルコノデルタラクトン(GDL)およびこれらを適宜混合した凝固剤などが挙げられる。凝固剤を含む豆腐製造用の豆乳としては、とくに乳化にがりを含む豆乳が好ましく、この乳化にがりを含む場合、豆乳の温度は、例えば、25〜95℃、好ましくは35〜95℃、とくに好ましくは60〜90℃である。   The soy milk discharge nozzle of the present invention can be used in any soy milk. For example, it is not limited to soy milk for producing tofu containing a coagulant, but can be used for soy milk for beverages. In the case of soy milk for producing tofu containing a coagulant, the coagulant is crude magnesium chloride (seawater bittern), emulsified bite, magnesium chloride solution, calcium sulfide solution, glucono delta lactone (GDL) and a coagulation obtained by appropriately mixing these. Agents and the like. As soy milk for tofu production containing a coagulant, soy milk containing emulsified bittern is particularly preferable. When this emulsified bittern is included, the temperature of the soy milk is, for example, 25 to 95 ° C, preferably 35 to 95 ° C, particularly preferably. 60-90 ° C.

以下、本発明の板状部材(液垂れ防止手段)およびそれを用いた豆乳排出ノズルの一態様について、図面を用いて説明するが、本発明は、これら図面に限定されるものではない。
本発明の板状部材1は、一態様において、ステンレス板2に複数の孔3を有する(図1)。孔3は、規則的に配置されていても、不規則に配置されていてもよいが、孔3の端同士が少なくとも2mm以上離れて配置される。
Hereinafter, although the plate-shaped member (liquid dripping prevention means) of this invention and one aspect | mode of the soymilk discharge | emission nozzle using the same are demonstrated using drawing, this invention is not limited to these drawings.
In one embodiment, the plate-like member 1 of the present invention has a plurality of holes 3 in a stainless steel plate 2 (FIG. 1). The holes 3 may be arranged regularly or irregularly, but the ends of the holes 3 are arranged at least 2 mm apart.

本発明の豆乳排出ノズル4は、図2に示すように、一態様において、ノズルキャップ5が接続され、該ノズルキャップ5には、2枚の板状部材1a、1bが内包されている。前記2枚の板状部材1a、1bは、スペーサーなどの手段によって、平行に所定の間隔(例えば、3mm)をもって配置される。豆乳6が、ノズル4を介して容器7に注がれる。所定量の供給を終えた後、ノズル4内に残存した豆乳は、それ自体の表面張力により、板状部材1a、1bによって担持されるので、液垂れとなってノズル4から出てくることがない。   As shown in FIG. 2, the soymilk discharge nozzle 4 of the present invention is connected to a nozzle cap 5 in one aspect, and the two plate-like members 1 a and 1 b are included in the nozzle cap 5. The two plate-like members 1a and 1b are arranged in parallel with a predetermined interval (for example, 3 mm) by means such as a spacer. Soy milk 6 is poured into the container 7 through the nozzle 4. After the supply of a predetermined amount is completed, the soy milk remaining in the nozzle 4 is carried by the plate-like members 1a and 1b by its own surface tension, so that it may come out of the nozzle 4 as a liquid dripping. Absent.

金網タイプの液垂れ防止手段では、豆乳6は目詰まりしてしまうが、本発明の板状部材1は、豆乳6が目詰まりすることなく、液垂れを防止できる。この現象については、次のように理解することができる。
すなわち、豆乳6は、成分中のタンパク質の熱変性や、豆乳と凝固剤との化学反応などによって湯葉様成分9が生じるところ、該湯葉様成分9は糸状の物質であり、金網タイプの液漏れ防止手段では、図3aに示すように、金網を形成するステンレス線8に、ちょうどぶら下がるような形にまたがってしまう。一度ぶら下がるような形になると、メッシュ孔10のどこからも流れていかず、次々と湯葉様成分9が堆積してしまうことになる。一方、本発明の板状部材1の場合、孔3が所定間隔をもって配置されているため、糸状の湯葉様成分9が孔3の間のステンレス板2の部分をまたいでぶら下がるような形になることがなく、目詰まりすることがないと考えられる。
With the wire net type liquid dripping prevention means, the soy milk 6 is clogged, but the plate-like member 1 of the present invention can prevent the liquid dripping without clogging the soy milk 6. This phenomenon can be understood as follows.
That is, in the soymilk 6, a yuba-like component 9 is generated by heat denaturation of protein in the component or a chemical reaction between the soymilk and a coagulant. In the prevention means, as shown in FIG. 3a, the stainless steel wire 8 forming the wire net is suspended in a shape just hanging. Once it is in a shape that hangs down, it does not flow from anywhere in the mesh hole 10 and the yuba-like component 9 accumulates one after another. On the other hand, in the case of the plate-like member 1 of the present invention, since the holes 3 are arranged at a predetermined interval, the thread-like yuba-like component 9 hangs across the portion of the stainless steel plate 2 between the holes 3. It is thought that there is no clogging.

以下、実施例として、本発明の板状部材の液垂れおよび目詰まりについて試験した結果を示す。
(実施例)
厚さ1mmのステンレス製の金属板に複数の円形の孔を規則的に設けた板状部材1〜5(表1参照)を用意した。なお、いずれの板状部材も円形で、直径は22mmであり、開口率は約25%である。
Hereinafter, as a working example, the results of testing for dripping and clogging of the plate-like member of the present invention are shown.
(Example)
Plate-like members 1 to 5 (see Table 1) in which a plurality of circular holes are regularly provided on a stainless steel metal plate having a thickness of 1 mm were prepared. Each plate-like member is circular, the diameter is 22 mm, and the aperture ratio is about 25%.

用意した1枚または2枚の板状部材を豆乳排出ノズルに取り付けた後、該豆乳排出ノズルに、乳化にがり(「マグネスファイン」(商品名)花王株式会社製)を含む82℃の豆乳(豆腐製造用豆乳)を一定量ずつ供給を繰り返し行ない、開始1時間後の目詰まりについて、その有無を評価した。結果を表1に示す。なお、2枚の板状部材を取り付けたノズルにおいて、板状部材は同種のものを3mmの間隔をもって平行に取り付けた。   After the prepared one or two plate-shaped members are attached to the soymilk discharge nozzle, the soymilk discharge nozzle containing the emulsified bittern ("Magnesfine" (trade name) manufactured by Kao Corporation) is added to the soymilk discharge nozzle. The soymilk for production) was repeatedly supplied in a fixed amount, and the presence or absence of clogging after 1 hour from the start was evaluated. The results are shown in Table 1. In the nozzle to which two plate-like members were attached, the same kind of plate-like members were attached in parallel with an interval of 3 mm.

さらに比較のため、金網タイプの液垂れ防止手段を用いたノズル(比較例1)についても評価した。金網は、ステンレス製で、メッシュ16(ステンレス線の直径:0.4mm程度)のものを用いた。

Figure 2008104362
For comparison, a nozzle (Comparative Example 1) using a wire net type liquid dripping prevention means was also evaluated. The wire mesh is made of stainless steel and has a mesh 16 (stainless steel wire diameter: about 0.4 mm).
Figure 2008104362

表1に示すとおり、孔間(隣接する孔同士の距離)の距離を2mm以上にすると目詰まりが極めて生じにくくなった(実施例1〜6)。
とくに、2枚の板状部材3を3mmの間隔で平行に配置したノズル(実施例4)では、豆乳の供給開始1時間後でも目詰まりすることなく、液垂れを防止でき、最も優れていた。この実施例4のノズルは、豆乳の供給開始4時間後でも目詰まりは全くしないことが確認された。
一方、孔間1mmの板状部材1または2を用いたノズル(比較例2〜5)では、金網を用いたノズル(比較例1)と同様に、豆乳の供給開始から1時間後には目詰まりがひどく、ノズルとして良好な使用状態を保つことができなかった。
孔間が大きくなると、湯葉状成分が孔の間の部分に堆積し、逆に孔間が小さいと、堆積しにくくなるのではないかとも想像されたが、上記の結果はその予想に反して、一定以上の孔間を設定した方が、却って目詰まり防止になるという驚くべき結果となった。
As shown in Table 1, when the distance between holes (distance between adjacent holes) was 2 mm or more, clogging was extremely difficult to occur (Examples 1 to 6).
In particular, the nozzle (Example 4) in which the two plate-like members 3 were arranged in parallel at an interval of 3 mm was most excellent because it could prevent dripping without clogging even after 1 hour from the start of supply of soymilk. . It was confirmed that the nozzle of Example 4 was not clogged at all even after 4 hours from the start of supply of soy milk.
On the other hand, the nozzles (Comparative Examples 2 to 5) using the plate-like member 1 or 2 having a 1 mm gap between holes are clogged one hour after the start of the supply of soy milk, similarly to the nozzle using the wire mesh (Comparative Example 1). However, it was not possible to maintain a good use state as a nozzle.
It was imagined that the yuba-like component was deposited in the area between the holes when the gap between the holes was large, and conversely, it was difficult to deposit when the gap between the holes was small. The surprising result was that setting the gap between the holes above a certain level would prevent clogging.

孔間を2mm以上とした上、孔の直径を2〜5mm程度にすると、相対的に液垂れ防止効果は高く、孔間3mmの板状部材4または5を用いたノズル(実施例2、3、5および6)では、若干の液垂れはあるものの使用上問題になる程度ではなかった。また、これらのノズルにおいても2枚用いたノズル(実施例5および6)が1枚用いたノズル(実施例2および3)よりも液垂れ防止効果が向上した。   When the gap between the holes is set to 2 mm or more and the diameter of the holes is about 2 to 5 mm, the effect of preventing dripping is relatively high, and the nozzle using the plate-like member 4 or 5 having the gap of 3 mm (Examples 2 and 3). In 5 and 6), although there was some dripping, it was not a problem in use. Also, in these nozzles, the dripping prevention effect was improved as compared with the nozzles (Examples 2 and 3) in which two nozzles (Examples 5 and 6) were used.

さらに板状部材には、ノズルから排出される豆乳が周囲に飛び散ることなどがない、豆乳の流れを整える効果(整流効果)が見られ、孔の直径が5mm程度までの板状部材を用いたノズルで、とくに優れていた。   Furthermore, the plate-like member was used so that the soy milk discharged from the nozzle was not scattered around, the effect of regulating the flow of soy milk (rectification effect) was seen, and the hole diameter was about 5 mm. The nozzle was particularly good.

本発明の板状部材およびそれを用いたノズルによれば、豆乳に用いても液垂れ防止を可能にしつつ、目詰まりすることがなく、例えば、豆腐の製造において、製造ラインを止める必要がなく、作業負担の軽減および生産効率の向上を実現できる。   According to the plate-like member of the present invention and the nozzle using the same, it is possible to prevent dripping even when used in soy milk, without clogging. For example, in the production of tofu, there is no need to stop the production line. It is possible to reduce the work load and improve the production efficiency.
