Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to an Acacia Arabica-based candies preparation device that is designed to automatically produce candies, catering to a wide range of consumers, including children and elderly and efficiently mixes ingredients for candy preparation and monitors the consistency of the mixture to ensure the final product meets the desired qualities, such as a smooth, mouth-dissolving texture.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The demand for automated candy preparation has risen due to the growing need for consistency, efficiency, and customization in food manufacturing. Traditional candy-making methods often involve time-consuming manual processes, reliance on skilled labor, and a lack of precision in ingredient measurements. As consumer preferences evolve, there is an increasing desire for candies tailored to specific dietary needs, age groups, and flavors, alongside the need for ensuring consistent quality in every batch. Additionally, factors such as the demand for healthier alternatives, including organic or allergen-free candies, further highlight the necessity for automation to ensure safe and accurate ingredient inclusion. In response to these challenges, the development of automated systems for candy preparation has become essential. These systems not only streamline production but also enhance precision in mixing, heating, and dispensing ingredients, ensuring optimal texture, taste, and nutritional content. The ability to customize ingredients and control factors like viscosity, pH, and tannin content is crucial for creating high-quality candies that meet both consumer expectations and regulatory standards. Such advancements also cater to the growing trend of personalization in the food industry, allowing consumers to enjoy tailored candy products based on their preferences, age, and dietary requirements, thereby revolutionizing the way candy is made and consumed.

[0003] Candy preparation requires specialized equipment that helps in mass production while ensuring consistency and quality. Key equipment includes candy cookers, which are used to melt and mix ingredients like sugar, glucose, and flavoring agents at precise temperatures. These cookers often come with temperature control mechanisms to prevent burning. Sugar pullers or batch rollers are essential for stretching and shaping candies, particularly for chewy or taffy-style sweets. Molding machines are used to pour and shape the candy into specific designs or forms, while cooling tunnels ensure that candies solidify properly without deforming. However, these machines come with drawbacks. The high initial cost of purchasing and maintaining equipment can be a significant investment for smaller businesses. The machines also require skilled operators to avoid issues like incorrect temperature control or inconsistent shaping. Additionally, the energy consumption can be high, making production less sustainable if not managed properly. Cleaning and maintenance of these machines can be labor-intensive, especially for complex molds and pullers. Furthermore, there is often a risk of contamination if not thoroughly sanitized, which can affect the taste and safety of the candy. Lastly, machine malfunctions can halt production, leading to downtime and loss of output.

[0004] JPH0387143A discloses objective candies obtained by mixing water-soluble saccharides (e.g. glucose) in 30-80wt.% concentration with water-soluble proteins (e.g. milk casein) in 0.8-3.0wt.% concentration expressed in terms of water-soluble nitrogen, adding 0.05-1 pt.wt. flavor substance (e.g. orange oil) sparingly soluble in water thereto, mixing the resultant mixture in a kneader, etc., and adding the prepared liquid or pasty water-dispersible flavor formulation in a solubilized form in an amount of 0.01-1wt.% based on the total weight of the candies, such as sugar or thick malt syrup, to the kneaded mixture.

[0005] EP2486802A1 relates to jelly candies, in particular to chocolate jelly candies and to a process to a preparation thereof. The jelly candies of the invention comprise a high-methoxy pectin, a weak organic acid buffer and delta glucono lactone in definite amounts and can be prepared by shaping and drying a gelatinous composition comprising the above components in admixture with suitable food ingredients and additives.

[0022] The present invention relates to an Acacia Arabica-based candies preparation device that is capable of automatically preparing Acacia Arabica-based candies, for various consumers, including kids and older adults by ensuring a smooth, dissolving texture.

[0023] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of an Acacia Arabica-based candies preparation device is illustrated, comprises of a cuboidal housing 101 installed with a pair of chambers 102, a touch interactive display panel 103 mounted on the housing 101, an electronic nozzle 104 installed with each of the chambers 102, a primary container 105 attached underneath the chambers 102, a first motorized stirrer 106 installed with the container 105 , a heating unit 107 installed with the primary container 105, a pair of vessels 108 mounted within the housing 101, an electronic valve 109 configured with each of the vessels 108, a secondary container 110 positioned underneath the vessels 108 integrated with a second motorized stirrer 111, a canister 112 installed with the primary container 105, a first electronic spout 113 attached with the canister 112, and a second electronic spout 114 attached with the primary container 105.

[0024] Figure 1 further illustrates a primary receptacle 115 attached underneath the primary container 105, a secondary receptacle 116 configured with the primary receptacle 115, a motorized iris lid 117 configured with the secondary receptacle 116, a third motorized stirrer 118 configured within the primary receptacle 115, a flask 119 positioned within the housing 101, a first robotic arm 120 assembled within the housing 101 and equipped with a dropper, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 121 mounted within the housing 101, plurality of motorized iris pores 122 configured with the primary receptacle 115, a slotted tray 123 arranged underneath the primary receptacle 115, a second robotic arm 124 installed within the housing 101 and equipped with a flap, a pneumatic pusher 125 installed in each of the slots, and a speaker 126 mounted on the housing 101.

[0025] The proposed invention includes a housing 101 preferably in cuboidal shape incorporating various components associated with the device, developed to be positioned on a ground surface. The housing 101 is arranged with a pair of chambers 102 stored with Acacia Arabica pod powder and methanol. The housing 101 is made up of any material selected from but not limited to metal or plastic that ensures rigidity of the housing 101 for longevity of the device.

[0026] A user is required to access and presses a switch button arranged on the housing 101 to activate the device for associated processes of the device. The switch button when pressed by the user, opens up an electrical circuit and allows currents to flow for powering an associated microcontroller of the device for operating of all the linked components for performing their respective functions upon actuation.

[0027] The microcontroller, mentioned herein, is preferably an Arduino microcontroller. The Arduino microcontroller used herein controls the overall functionality of the components linked to it. The Arduino microcontroller is an open-source programming platform.

[0028] After the activation of the device, the user accesses a touch interactive display panel 103 installed over the housing 101 for providing input regarding preparation of candies along with specifying age. When the user touches the surface of the touch interactive display panel 103 to enter the input details, then an internal circuitry of the touch interactive display panel 103 senses the touches of the displayed option and synchronically, the internal circuitry converts the physical touch into the form of electric signal. The microcontroller processes the received signal from the display panel 103 in order to process the signal and determine the user selection and store the user response to a linked database for further associated functions related to the user input.

[0029] In accordance to the user input, the microcontroller determines an elasticity of the gum to be maintained such that caters the consumers of different age group. As per the determined elasticity, the microcontroller determines a suitable amount of each ingredient needed to be dispensed for preparing candies.

[0030] An electronic nozzle 104 is installed with each of the chambers 102 and that are actuated by the microcontroller such that dispenses determined amount of pod powder and methanol in a primary container 105 attached underneath the chambers 102. The electronic nozzle 104, used herein, controls flow of pod powder and methanol by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a microcontroller. This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, and pod powder and methanol level in view of dispensing the pod powder and methanol as per the determined requirement.

[0031] The container 105 is installed with a first motorized stirrer 106 and that is actuated by the microcontroller to stir the powder and methanol. The first motorized stirrer 106 comprises a rod that is configured with multiple propellers. The rod is rotated by the means of a DC (Direct Current) electric motor in order to provide motion to the propeller to mix up the powder and methanol such that forms solution uniformly and create a homogeneous mixture.

[0032] Simultaneously, a heating unit 107 integrated within the primary container 105 and that is actuated by the microcontroller to heat the primary container 105 to obtain a pod powder solution. The heating unit 107 consists of a coil such that as current is passed through the coil, the coil becomes hot and produces heat energy. This heat energy of the heating unit 107 is transferred to the primary container 105. The heating unit 107 is actuated by the microcontroller in order to regulate the temperature of the heating unit 107 required for heating the primary container 105.

[0033] The housing 101 is configured with a pair of vessels 108 mounted within the housing 101. The vessels 108 store gelatin powder and cold water used for making candies. Each of the vessels 108 are arranged with an electronic valve 109 for dispensing determined amount of gelatin powder and cold water in a secondary container 110 positioned underneath the vessels 108. The working of the electronic valve 109 is similar to the working of the nozzle 104 as mentioned above.

[0034] A Peltier module is installed with one of the vessels 108 for keeping the water cold. The Peltier module is based on the Peltier effect that stated that the cooling of one junction and the heating of the other when electric current is maintained in a circuit of material consisting of two dissimilar conductors. The Peltier effect related to production or absorption of heat at the junction of two metals on the passage of a current, thereby the Peltier module keeps the water cold as per requirement.

[0035] The secondary container 110 features a second motorized stirrer 111 and that is actuated by the microcontroller for stirring the gelatin powder and cold water to dissolve gelatin powder and obtain a gelatin solution. The working of the second motorized stirrer 111 is similar to the working of the first motorized stirrer 106 as mentioned above.

[0036] The viscosity of the pod powder solution is detected by a viscosity sensor arranged within the chambers 102. The viscosity sensor consists of a piston and two coils, the piston driven electromagnetically through the fluid. While coils aid in moving the piston in back and forth at a constant force, an internal circuitry of the sensor analyses the movement of the piston within the pod powder solution. Based on the movement of the piston, the internal circuitry of the sensor transmits the acquired data to the microcontroller in the form of an electrical signal. The microcontroller upon receiving and processing the signal detects the viscosity of the pod powder solution.

[0037] As soon as the microcontroller evaluates the detected viscosity matches a preset threshold value, the microcontroller actuates a suction unit installed with the secondary container 110 to transfer the gelatin solution to the primary container 105. The suction unit connects the secondary container 110 with the primary container 105 via conduit.

[0038] Each of the suction units operate by creating negative pressure to draw in gelatin solution through a suction inlet. It works on concept of a vacuum pump that generates the necessary suction force. When actuated by the microcontroller, the pump evacuates air from the suction inlet, creating a vacuum that causes atmospheric pressure to push the gelatin solution towards the inlet. The gelatin solution is consequently directed into the primary container 105. Post transfer of the gelatin solution to the primary container 105, the microcontroller re-actuates the first stirrer 106 for stirring the solutions such that obtains a mixture.

[0039] The pH value of the mixture is monitored by a pH sensor embedded within the primary container 105. The pH sensor is installed with a pair of electrodes. When the electrode is immersed into the primary container 105 the electrode senses the hydrogen ions due to the positive charge of the ions. Thus, detecting the pH of the mixture of the primary container 105 The sensor further converts the detected pH into electric current and transmit the signal to the microcontroller. The microcontroller then processes the signals and compares the pH value with a threshold value pre-fed in the linked database.

[0040] The primary container 105 is installed with a canister 112 storing pH neutralizing agent. The canister 112 is configured with a first electronic spout 113. In case the microcontroller evaluates the detected pH recedes the threshold value, the microcontroller actuates first electronic spout 113 to open for dispensing a suitable amount of the pH neutralizing agent in the primary container 105. The working of the first electronic spout 113 is similar to the working of the nozzle 104 as mentioned above.

[0041] Synchronously, the microcontroller re-actuates the first stirrer 106 to stir the mixture to maintain optimum pH of the mixture. Post maintaining the pH of the mixture, the microcontroller actuates a second electronic spout 114 attached with the primary container 105 for dispensing the mixture into a primary receptacle 115 attached underneath the primary container 105. The working of the second electronic spout 114 is similar to the working of the nozzle 104 as mentioned above.

[0042] The primary receptacle 115 is configured with a secondary receptacle 116 such that stores vanilla powder. The base portion of the secondary receptacle 116 is arranged with a motorized iris lid 117 for dispensing the determined amount of the vanilla powder in the primary receptacle 115.

[0043] The iris lid 117, mentioned herein, consists of a ring in bottom configured with multiple slots along periphery, multiple number of blades and blade actuating ring on the top. The blades are pivotally jointed with blade actuating ring and the base plate are hooked over the blade. The blade actuating ring is rotated clock and antilock wise by a DC motor embedded in ball actuating ring which results in opening of the holes to dispense the determined amount of the vanilla powder in the primary receptacle 115.

[0044] The base portion of the primary receptacle 115 is integrated with a third motorized stirrer 118. Synchronous to the dispensing the determined amount of the vanilla powder, the microcontroller actuates the third motorized stirrer 118 for stirring the mixture with the vanilla powder to obtain candy mixture. The working of the third motorized stirrer 118 is similar to the working of the first motorized stirrer 106 as mentioned above.

[0045] The housing 101 is arranged with a first robotic arm 120 and that is equipped with a dropper as an end effector. The microcontroller actuates the first robotic arm 120 for taking a small amount of the candy mixture in the dropper. The first robotic arm 120 comprises, motor controllers, arm, end effector and sensors. All these parts are configured with the microcontroller. The elbow is at the middle section of the arm that allows the upper part of the arm to move the lower section independently. Lastly, the wrist is at the tip of the upper arm and attached to the end effector thereby the end effector works as a hand for collecting a small amount of the candy mixture in the dropper.

[0046] Pick small amount of the prepared candy mixture and transfer to the candy mixture to a flask 119 positioned within the housing 101. The flask 119 is stored with ferric chloride solution. The color developed in the flask 119 is detected by a color sensor which works in sync with the imaging unit 121. The color sensor is a photoelectric device that emits light rays of different wavelength towards the flask 119 and the reflected light rays are received by the sensor and the signal are transmitted to the microcontroller in order to determine color of the ferric chloride solution in the flask 119. The dispensing of the candy mixture into the flask 119, validates the tannin content of the mixture based on color change observed in the flask 119.

[0047] The microcontroller generates a command to activate an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 121 integrated within the housing 101 for capturing multiple images of the flask 119 for detecting color developed in the flask 119. The imaging unit 121 incorporates a processor that is encrypted with an artificial intelligence protocol. The artificial intelligence protocol operates by following a set of predefined instructions to process data and perform tasks autonomously. Initially, data is collected and input into a database, which then employs protocol to analyze and interpret the captured images. The processor of the imaging unit 121 via the artificial intelligence protocol processes the captured images and sent the signal to the microcontroller.

[0048] In case the microcontroller via the imaging unit 121 validates mixture to be appropriate for candies by checking the developed color matching bluish-black or greenish-black, tannin content in the mixture. Accordingly, the microcontroller accordingly actuates plurality of motorized iris pores 122 configured with the primary receptacle 115 to open for dispensing the mixture on a slotted tray 123 arranged underneath the primary receptacle 115. The working of the motorized iris pores 122 is similar to the working of the iris lid 117 as mentioned above.

[0049] The housing 101 incorporates a second robotic arm 124 integrated with a flap. The microcontroller actuates the second robotic arm 124 for spreading the mixture to evenly fill slots of the tray 123 via the flap. The working of the second robotic arm 124 is similar to the working of the first robotic arm 120 as mentioned above.

[0050] The tray 123 is configured with multiple Peltier units to solidify the mixture into candies. The working of the Peltier units is similar to the working of the Peltier module as mentioned above. The base portion of the tray 123 is equipped with a pneumatic pusher 125 installed in each of the slots. The pusher 125 is pneumatically powered by a pneumatic arrangement associated with the device such that provides the extension/retraction of the pushers 125 as per requirement.

[0051] The microcontroller actuates an air compressor and air valve associated with the pneumatic arrangement consisting of an air cylinder, air valve and piston which works in collaboration to aid in extension and retraction of the pushers 125. The air valve allows entry/exit of compressed air from the compressor. Then, the valve opens and the compressed air enters inside the cylinder thereby increasing the air pressure of the cylinder. The piston is connected to the pushers 125 and due to the increase in the air pressure, the piston extends. For the retraction of the piston, air is released from the cylinder to the air compressor via the valve. Thus, providing the required extension/retraction of the pushers 125 for pushing the candies out from the slots and pushed into a plate arranged beneath the tray 123.

[0052] Post dispensing of the prepared candies into the plate, the microcontroller notifies the user via a speaker 126 mounted over the housing 101 regarding collection of the prepared candies from the plate. The speaker 126 works by taking the input signal from the microcontroller, it then processes and amplifies the received signal through a series of equipment in a specific order within the speaker 126, and then sends the output signal in form of audio notification through the speaker 126 for alerting the user to collect prepared candies from the plate.

[0053] While preparing the candies in continuous manner, the chambers 102, vessels 108, and secondary receptacle 116 are integrated with a level sensor which monitors the level of the ingredient of pod powder, methanol, gelatin powder, water, and vanilla powder, respectively.

[0054] Each of the Level sensor, used herein, is a type of point sensor which detects the level of the ingredients by measuring the amount of infrared light that is reflected back from the surface of the ingredients into a photodiode associated with the sensor. The level sensor detects the level of the ingredients and sends to the microcontroller in the form of electrical signal to the microcontroller for determining the level of the ingredients.

[0055] In case the microcontroller validates the detected level of any ingredient recedes a predetermined threshold level, the microcontroller activates the speaker 126 for notifying the user to re-fill the chambers 102, vessels 108 and secondary receptacle 116.

[0056] A battery (not shown in figure) is associated with the device to supply power to electrically powered components which are employed herein. The battery is comprised of a pair of electrodes named as a cathode and an anode. The battery uses a chemical reaction of oxidation/reduction to do work on charge and produce a voltage between their anode and cathode and thus produces electrical energy that is used to do work in the device.

[0057] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the cuboidal housing 101 with the touch interactive display panel 103 as disclosed in the invention is accessed by the user for inputting commands corresponding to candy preparation, including age specification. The microcontroller processes the input to determine the correct ingredient amounts for the pod powder and methanol solution, which is dispensed and stirred using electronic nozzles 104 and the motorized stirrer 106, with heating to form the solution. Gelatin powder and cold water are dispensed and stirred to create the gelatin solution, which is then transferred into the primary container 105 once the pod solution reaches the specific viscosity. The pH sensor detects the mixture's pH, and if necessary, the pH neutralizing agent is added. Vanilla powder is then incorporated into the mixture, which is stirred to form the candy mixture. The robotic arm 120 checks the tannin content by transferring the sample to the flask 119 containing ferric chloride solution, and the imaging unit 121 detects the color change to assess tannin levels. If the tannin content is appropriate, the mixture is dispensed onto the slotted tray 123. The second robotic arm 124 spreads the mixture evenly in the tray 123, and Peltier units solidify it into candies. Finally, the pneumatic pusher 125 ejects the candies, and the speaker 126 notifies the user to collect prepared candies.

[0058] Although the field of the invention has been described herein with limited reference to specific embodiments, this description is not meant to be construed in a limiting sense.
