The present invention relates to a device for manufacturing a quinoa cooker, and more particularly, to a device for manufacturing an improved quinoa cooker capable of easily and rapidly producing the quinoa cooker while smoothly peeling off and washing the quinoa cooker.

As can be seen, rice is a representative grain of the stocks of people of many countries including Korea.

In recent years, eating rice with rice has not only been a means of solving food, but also an auxiliary means for health, or an alternative means of replacing rice. A method of allowing rice to be naturally consumed by eating rice with rice containing the ingredients, and alternate foods in a form that can be easily taken by simply turning it into a microwave oven in the form of a simple dish.

In this regard, Quinoa has been attracting attention and is being developed as a substitute food that can substitute for cook, that is, meal, and related technology using Quinoa is disclosed in Patent Publication No. 2003-0064593 (2003.08.02), Published Patent Application No. 2009-0092841 (2009.09.01), and Registration No. 1377213 (April 17, 2014).

These quinoa are classified as pseudo-grains due to taxonomic considerations and chemical composition associated with herbaceous plants. Since the early 20th century, protein and various inorganic salts have been recognized as abundant, but their consumption has been confined to the Andes for over 6,000 years.

In the Inca empire Quechua, Quinoa means "mother of grain", and botanists who traveled in the Andean region in the 18th and 19th centuries appreciated it.

The scientific name of Quinoa is Chenopodium quinoa Willd. Subspecies. Quinoa, commonly called Quechua: quinua, kiuna; Spanish: quinoa, quinua, arroz del Peru; French: quinoa, petit riz, riz du Prou; English: It is called quinoa, quinua. Chenopodium quinoa is an annual herb that is 0.5 to 2.1 meters tall depending on environmental conditions and genotype, and its central roots are easy to withstand frost because of its many branches.

According to the literature, quinoa contains a large amount of beneficial ingredients, such as proteins, lipids, polyphenols, soluble fibrin, fibrin, fructose, tocopherol, squalene, sterol, alpha-linoleic acid, Stearic acid, arachidic acid, icacenoic acid, henic acid, 9-dococenoic acid, tetracosenoic acid, and the like.

In addition, saponin, especially triterpene saponin, is contained in a large amount of saponin, and saponin contained in quinoa algae usually causes sap due to palatability and diarrhea, unlike saponin which is generally known to be beneficial to human body. Should be.

Therefore, it is known that in Peru and others, it is called water for about a day before ingesting quinoa, and then saponin is removed and then ingested.

However, if it is processed in water, it is difficult to mass-produce it, and productivity is lowered.

3 is an exemplary view showing an example of installation of a quinoa tray according to the present invention.

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

Before describing the present invention, the following specific structural or functional descriptions are merely illustrative for the purpose of describing an embodiment according to the concept of the present invention, and embodiments according to the concept of the present invention may be embodied in various forms, And should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described herein.

In addition, since the embodiments according to the concept of the present invention can make various changes and have various forms, specific embodiments are illustrated in the drawings and described in detail herein. However, it should be understood that the embodiments according to the concept of the present invention are not intended to limit the present invention to specific modes of operation, but include all modifications, equivalents and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the present invention.

First, the quinoa cook according to the present invention carries the raw quinoa, rubbing it with water for a certain period of time to remove impurities and saponin, and then cooking it at about 98 ° C for about 10 minutes. After cooling to room temperature with cold water, And then packaged separately, then sterilized and shipped.

At this time, it takes at least 2-3 hours in order to isolate saponin and foreign matter from water by calling aquatic quinoa, but even if it uses air-water system to increase the effect, It takes at least 6 hours to settle for 3 hours.

Furthermore, since all of these operations are performed by hand, continuous operation is not possible. Even if the continuous operation is performed, the size of the quinoa is very small. Therefore, in the process of moving the process and the process, There is a problem that it is not easy to move 100% to the container of the process. In order to solve this problem, a manufacturing apparatus as shown in the present invention has been proposed.

1 and 2, the apparatus for manufacturing a quinoa cooker according to the present invention includes a post housing 100.

The post housing 100 is a cylindrical member that is erected and has a fixing flange 110 protruding in the circumferential direction at its lower end.

The fixing flange 110 is seated and fixed on the fixed frame 120 having a predetermined height.

Therefore, the post housing 100 is disposed at a predetermined height from the mounting surface.

A plurality of, preferably five, sliding grooves 130 are formed in the post housing 100 at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction. The sliding grooves 130 are formed in the longitudinal direction of the post housing 100, The length is incised.

That is, it is incised from the upper end of the post housing 100 toward a downward direction of a certain length.

The fixed arm 140 is inserted into the sliding groove 130 and the quinoa tray 150 is installed at the end of the fixed arm 140.

At this time, it is preferable that the quinoa tray 150 is formed as a net-shaped box-shaped net.

In particular, because the quinoa is a very small grain in the size of a millet, the mesh of the quinoa tray 150 should be very small and compact.

The reason is that the quinoa can be trapped without getting out, and the net type is to make the water flow smoothly when it is washed or called into water, so that the quinoa and water can be in good contact with each other.

Also, since the size of the quinoa is small, the quinoa can be adhered to the quinoa tray in the wet state. If the quinoa tray does not move in the state containing the quinoa, as in the present invention, A considerable amount of time and effort (such as spraying water) is required to completely remove the quinoa from the quinoa tray of the process and transfer it to the quinoa tray of the next process.

In addition, the fixing arm 140 is fixed to the circumferential surface of the operation post 160, and the operation post 160 is structured to be capable of being raised and lowered as well as raised and rotated in a state of being fitted to the post housing 100 .

Here, if any one of the actuating arms 140 is set as a home position and is configured to be rotated in a clockwise direction on the basis of the home position, control through a controller (not shown) is facilitated.

In addition, the controller is a kind of microprocessor that controls the driving of the up-down cylinder 200 and the rotation drive motor 300, which will be described later.

A fixing plate 210 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the operation post 160. An upper end of the cylinder rod 220 is fixed to the fixing plate 210. A lower end of the cylinder rod 220 is connected to a lifting cylinder 200).

Accordingly, when the ascending / descending cylinder 200 is operated, the cylinder rod 220 is lifted up and pushes up the fixing plate 210. As a result, the working post 220 fixed on the fixing plate 210 The fixing arm 140 is lifted while the fixing arm 140 is separated from the sliding groove 130. As a result, the operating post 220 can freely rotate.

Thus, by raising the operating post 160 by operating the ascending / descending cylinder 200, the quinoa tray 150 mounted on each of the fixed arms 140 can be rotated by a predetermined angle, thereby enabling continuous processing .

The lower end of the ascending / descending cylinder 200 is fixed to the upper surface of the turntable 310 and the turntable 310 is disposed on the inner bottom surface of the post housing 100.

A shaft 312 is formed at the center of the bottom surface of the turntable 310 and a driven shaft 322 of the driven bevel gear 320 is screwed to the shaft 312.

Here, the driven shaft 322 must be screwed on the shaft groove 312 in the direction opposite to the rotation of the turntable 310.

This is one of very important concepts for preventing the slave axis 322 from always being unlocked when the turntable 310 is rotated.

In addition, since the follower shaft 322 penetrates the bottom surface of the post housing 100, a through hole 102 is formed in the bottom surface of the post housing 100.

It is preferable that at least two or more bearings B are provided around the turntable 310 so as to smoothly make a rotational contact with the inner circumferential surface of the post housing 100.

The driving bevel gear 330 is coupled to the driven bevel gear 320 and the driving bevel gear 330 is connected to the rotation driving motor 300. The rotation driving motor 300 is fixed And is fixed to the bottom surface of the flange 110 with a separate bracket or the like.

Accordingly, when the rotation driving motor 300 is rotated, the driving bevel gear 330 is rotated, and the driven bevel gear 320 is rotated to rotate the turntable 310.

As a result, since the ascending / descending cylinder 200 fixed on the turntable 310 is also rotated, the fixed arm 140 can be raised or lowered by the ascending / descending cylinder 200, And can be rotated by a certain angle in accordance with the rotation driving of the rotation driving motor 300.

In addition, the rotation driving motor 300 is further provided with an encoder (not shown) so that the rotation angle control can be more accurately performed. The rotation drive motor 300 operates every three hours.

In addition, when the operation post 160 is further raised up and down by a rotation ball 170 which is rotatable at a position not overlapping the sliding groove 130, As shown in FIG.

In this case, the rotating ball 170 must be installed on the upper circumferential surface of the operation post 160, which causes the operation post 160 to be separated from the post housing 100 when the operation post 160 is lifted, It should not contact the sliding groove 130 during rotation.

The rotating ball 170 is rotatably supported by a ball bracket 172 and the ball bracket 172 can be rotatably mounted on the ball bearing 176 by a bracket shaft 174, 176 are fixedly embedded in a part of the circumferential surface of the operation post 160.

The washing unit 500, the germicidal unit 600, and the steam cooling unit 700 shown in FIG. 1 are provided at positions where the fixing arm 140 is rotated at a predetermined angle.

At this time, the landing unit 400 is a kind of water tank, and plays a role of calling the quinoa contained by the quinoa tray 150 containing the quinoa rotating and moving down and staying for a predetermined time.

Here, the function of dissolving and removing saponin at the same time is also performed.

The cleaning unit 500 may include a process of spraying large air bubbles through the large bubble jet nozzles 512 through one air pump 510 to perform a primary cleaning process and a process of relatively cleaning the large bubble jet nozzles 512 A small bubble jet nozzle 514, which is significantly smaller than the first bubble jetting nozzle 514, and a secondary cleaning process.

This air bubble wash is intended to completely dissolve the insoluble saponins as well as the fine excess residue remaining on the surface of the quinoa.

In addition, an ultrasonic generator may be attached to the cleaning unit 500 to enhance the cleaning effect within a short time by using ultrasonic waves.

In addition, the germination unit 600 is a processor for forming a kind of dark room and allowing the quinoa to germinate slightly by staying in water at 35 ° C for a certain period of time, thereby doubling the usability, that is, the beneficial component. Of course, the gnawing of quinoa begins at the bloom stage.

The steam cooling unit 700 is a unit for making steam using hot water having a water temperature of 98 ° C, spinning the steam for 10 minutes to cook quinoa, and cooling the hot water directly to the room temperature.

The steam cooling unit 700 includes a steam line 720 inside the housing 710 and a steam line 720 when the quinoa tray 150 is charged into the housing 710. [ It is preferable that the lid 730 that hermetically seals the upper portion of the housing 710 when the steam is injected is closed. In order to prevent the fixing arm 140 from being caught by the housing 710, The cover 730 can be opened and closed without any problem.

Although the opening and closing of the lid 730 is not shown, the lid 730 can be automatically opened and closed using a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder. A plurality of multi-row cooling water lines 740 are installed on the upper portion of the housing 710, And a drain pipe 750 is connected to a bottom surface of the housing 710 so as to be drained.

In this way, a basic process for making a quinoa cook is done, which is done automatically, so continuous processing is possible, which can contribute to productivity improvement.

However, it can be said that only the process of loading or unloading the quinoa from the home position proceeds manually.

In addition, quinoa is a very small grain in the size of a millet, so it is very difficult to work with it.

In other words, if you move it, there will be a lot of residue and it is not easy to shake it every time.

Therefore, in the present invention, the above-described net-like quinoa tray 150 is used, and the quinoa tray 150 may have the following structure.

3, a rectangular tray body 142 is integrally fixed to an end of the fixed arm 140, and the quinoa tray 150 is inserted into the tray body 142 A tray cover 152 is hinged to the upper end of the quinoa tray 150 so that the quinoa can be poured into the tray cover 152. The tray cover 152 is provided with an engagement flange 154 larger than the tray body 142, So that the latching flange 154 is caught by the tray body 142 when the tray body 142 is fitted.

In this way, loading and unloading of the quinoa tray 150 is easy and workability is improved.
