Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refining process for semiraw rice.
  • Each of such machines is substantially formed of a metal member of inverted truncated conical form which is externally coated with a layer of abrasive material and rotates at high speed within a fixed casing of truncated conical form too.
  • the fixed casing is generally made of a metal sheet and exhibits a plurality of holes of small diameter, that is capable of enabling passage of the husks and not of the individual rice grains.
  • the already hulled rice is introduced into the machine from the upper part thereof so that, while passing through the gap of adjustable width formed by the facing surfaces of said two members, it undergoes polishing, due above all to rubbing of the grains against the abrasive surface of the rotating frustoconical member.
  • a vacuum system active externally of the fixed casing carries out sucking of husks and powder through the holes provided in the fixed casing. Therefore as soon as the outer cortical layers are detached from the grains due to the rubbing action, they are also immediately separated from said grains.
  • a refining action of the same typology can be achieved by inverted-taper polishing machines or horizontal-cylinder polishing machines having one or more sectors.
  • husks are rich in nutritive substances, flavours and good smells. By separating husks as soon as they are detached from the rice grain, said nutritive substances, flavours and good smells are completely lost.
  • the rice mass kept in continuous motion, produced a substantially uniform rubbing of the grains with respect to one another thereby giving rise to a consequent uniform processing of the grains, irrespective of their size, so as to avoid irregular surface removals and fractures.
  • husks were not separated from rice during the whole process, thereby transferring part of their flavour, good smell and nutritive properties to the grains.
  • the technical task underlying the present invention is to devise a process capable of substantially overcoming limits and drawbacks of the refining processes of known type.
  • the process of the invention consists in previously using a taper polishing machine 1.
  • this machine the first step A of the inventive process in which grains are surface-cut is carried out.
  • hulled rice to be refined is introduced into this machine and more particularly in the gap formed between a rotating member 2 coated with an abrasive material and a fixed casing 3 made of a metal sheet and disposed eternally of the rotating member 2.
  • the machine 1 is used over a single passage and said machine is such adjusted that it does not produce a strong rubbing on the rice grains which might cause the grain fracture.
  • the machine adjustment allows a non-violent rubbing to be produced which is only capable of forming surface cuts in the grains, thereby greatly increasing their abrasion capability and making their separation from the husks easier.
  • rice processed in the taper type polishing machine 1 is transferred to a spiral type polishing machine 4, that is a machine comprising a helix or screw 5 rotating within a vessel or pot 6 substantially of ovoidal or semispherical form.
  • the second step B involving removal of the cortical layer from the grains takes place. That is, the rice grains previously surface-cut in the taper type machine 1, and therefore provided with a rough surface, cyclically rub against one another as provided in conventional spiral machines such as the polishing machine 4, thereby producing an easy removal of husks and powders.
  • the abrasive action is gradual and homogeneously distributed on all grains, so that the product appears uniform, well polished, and does not include scratched or blunt grains, irrespective of the grain sizes.
  • the produced rice acquires a greater homogeneity even when subsequently submitted to cooking.
  • rice is submitted to a sieving step C using a sieve of a conventional type not shown in the drawings and intended for separating the residual husks from the refined rice.
  • the invention achieves important advantages.
