Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of quick-frozen food production equipment, specifically to a draining device for quick-frozen food production. Background Technology
[0002] Quick-frozen foods are processed by rapidly freezing to low temperatures (below -18°C). This process prevents the loss of moisture and juices from the food tissues, and at such low temperatures, microorganisms essentially do not multiply, ensuring food safety. During the production of quick-frozen foods, the raw materials need to be washed, and after washing, they need to be drained. Therefore, there is a certain demand for draining devices used in the production of quick-frozen foods. The existing technology has the following problems:
[0003] Existing dewatering devices for frozen food production lack heat-assisted dewatering components, relying solely on natural and mechanical vibration dewatering. This makes it difficult to effectively remove moisture from the food surface, resulting in low dewatering efficiency. Residual moisture can easily lead to bacterial growth, thus reducing food quality. Furthermore, existing devices lack multi-dimensional movement functions such as longitudinal vibration and lateral reciprocating motion, causing localized accumulation of moisture during the dewatering process. This results in a very slow rate of moisture separation from the frozen food surface, leading not only to incomplete dewatering but also prolonging the entire dewatering process and reducing production efficiency.

[0010] A further improvement of the present invention is that the transverse reciprocating drainage component includes a second motor, which is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the vibration frame.

[0021] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives, and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the following describes this utility model in conjunction with specific embodiments:
[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a draining device for quick-frozen food production, including a base 10, a longitudinal vibration component 2 is provided on the top of the base 10, a vibration frame 11 is provided on the top of the longitudinal vibration component 2, a drain pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rear side wall of the vibration frame 11, a drain valve 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drain pipe 12, a heat-assisted draining component 3 is provided on the front side of the vibration frame 11, and a transverse reciprocating draining component 4 is provided inside the vibration frame 11.
[0023] The device is mainly supported by a base 10, which is made of stainless steel and is rectangular in shape, so that it can be placed stably on the workshop floor.
[0024] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the longitudinal vibration assembly 2 includes two fixed seats 20. The left and right fixed seats 20 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 10. The top of the left and right fixed seats 20 is provided with a circular slot. The left and right fixed seats 20 are slidably connected to the sliding column 24 through the circular slot. The top of the left and right sliding column 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vibration frame 11.
[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a motor 21 is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the left fixed seat 20. A rotating shaft 22 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 21. The right end of the rotating shaft 22 is rotatably connected to the left side wall of the right fixed seat 20. A crank 23 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer wall of the rotating shaft 22. Two connecting plates 27 are fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom end of the vibration frame 11. Rollers 28 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the opposite surfaces of the two connecting plates 27. The outer walls of the rollers 28 are tumblingly connected to the crank 23. Fixing blocks 25 are fixedly connected to the top of the opposite surfaces of the two fixed seats 20. Springs 26 are fixedly connected to the top of the two fixing blocks 25. The tops of the two springs 26 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the vibration frame 11.
[0026] In use, first place the frozen food that needs to be drained into the draining mesh frame 46. The draining mesh frame 46 is made of stainless steel with a mesh diameter of 2mm, which can effectively hold the food and initially filter the moisture. Then, start the motor 21. The output end of the motor 21 drives the rotating shaft 22 to rotate. The crank 23 in the middle of the rotating shaft 22 rotates accordingly. Through rolling contact with the roller 28, it pushes the vibrating frame 11 upward. At this time, the spring 26 connected to the bottom of the vibrating frame 11 and the top of the fixed base 20 is compressed. When the crank 23 rotates to a certain angle, it no longer presses against the roller 28. When an upward thrust is generated, the elastic force of the spring 26 is released, causing the vibrating frame 11 to move downward. This process is repeated, and the vibrating frame 11 vibrates up and down, performing preliminary vibration and drainage on the frozen food. The sliding column 24 slides in the circular groove at the top of the fixed base 20, which serves as a guide to ensure that the vibrating frame 11 moves up and down smoothly. Through the longitudinal vibration component 2, the vibrating frame 11 on which the frozen food is placed can vibrate up and down. During the vibration process, the frozen food is in a dynamic state within the vibrating frame 11, avoiding the situation where food accumulates and some areas are not drained sufficiently.
[0027] like Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the heat-assisted dewatering assembly 3 includes a hot air blower 30, which is fixedly connected to the front side wall of the vibrating frame 11. The air outlet of the hot air blower 30 is fixedly connected to an air guide pipe 31, and the rear end of the air guide pipe 31 extends into the interior of the vibrating frame 11.
[0028] When heat-assisted draining is required, the hot air blower 30 is turned on. The hot air blower 30 is a GFD-500 and is existing technology, so it will not be described in detail. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 30 is sent into the vibrating frame 11 through the air guide pipe 31. Multiple evenly distributed air outlets can be set at the end of the air guide pipe 31. The hot air is blown evenly onto the frozen food in the vibrating frame 11. The heat-assisted draining component 3 can generate hot air to increase the ambient temperature. While vibrating and draining, it can accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the food, effectively shorten the draining time, and improve the draining efficiency. At the same time, the hot air at a certain temperature can inhibit the growth and reproduction of bacteria, reduce the possibility of bacterial growth, and ensure food hygiene and safety.
[0029] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the transverse reciprocating drainage assembly 4 includes a second motor 40, which is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the vibration frame 11. The output end of the second motor 40 extends into the interior of the vibration frame 11 and is fixedly connected to a rotating disk 41. A cylinder 42 is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the rotating disk 41 at a position offset from the center. A straight groove plate 43 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the cylinder 42. A movable column 44 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the straight groove plate 43. The front and rear ends of the movable column 44 extend into the front and rear outer walls of the vibration frame 11 and are fixedly connected to a limit block 1. The outer wall of the movable column 44 is slidably connected to the front and rear sides of the vibration frame 11.
[0030] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, two ear seats 45 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable column 44. A drain mesh frame 46 is fixedly connected to the right side of the two ear seats 45. Two ear seats 47 are fixedly connected to the right side of the drain mesh frame 46. Movable columns 48 that are slidably connected to the front and rear sides of the vibration frame 11 are fixedly connected inside the two ear seats 47. The front and rear ends of the movable columns 48 penetrate to the front and rear outer walls of the vibration frame 11 and are fixedly connected to the limit blocks 2.
[0031] When a horizontal reciprocating draining operation is required, motor 40 is started. The output of motor 40 drives the rotating disk 41 to rotate. The cylinder 42, welded off-center on the right side wall of the rotating disk 41, slides within the straight groove of the straight groove plate 43. Since the movable column 44 welded on the front and rear sides of the straight groove plate 43 is slidably connected to the front and rear side walls of the vibrating frame 11, when the rotating disk 41 rotates, the cylinder 42 drives the straight groove plate 43 and the movable column 44 to move horizontally reciprocally. The lug 45 welded to the outer wall of the movable column 44 is connected to the draining mesh frame 46, thus making the draining mesh frame... The 46-carrying frozen food reciprocates laterally within the vibrating frame 11, further enhancing the drainage effect. The moving column 2 48 provides auxiliary support and guidance for the drainage frame 46, ensuring the stability of its lateral reciprocating motion. Through the set lateral reciprocating drainage component 4, the drainage frame 46 can be driven to reciprocate laterally, causing the frozen food to continuously change position in the horizontal direction. During this process, the moisture on different parts of the food surface will be more fully removed from the food surface under the action of vibration and inertia. In conjunction with the longitudinal vibration component 2, the thoroughness of drainage is greatly improved.
[0032] After the above-mentioned draining process, open the manual drain valve 13 on the drain pipe 12 at the bottom of the rear side wall of the vibrating frame 11 to drain the water accumulated in the vibrating frame 11 through the drain pipe 12, thus completing the entire draining process.
[0033] The working principle of this draining device used in the production of quick-frozen foods will be explained in detail below.
[0034] like Figure 1-5 As shown, during use, first place the frozen food that needs to be drained into the draining mesh frame 46. The draining mesh frame 46 is made of stainless steel with a mesh diameter of 2mm, which can effectively hold the food and initially filter the moisture. Then, start the motor 21. The output end of the motor 21 drives the rotating shaft 22 to rotate, and the crank 23 in the middle of the rotating shaft 22 rotates accordingly. Through rolling contact with the roller 28, it pushes the vibrating frame 11 to move upward. At this time, the spring 26 connected to the bottom of the vibrating frame 11 and the top of the fixed base 20 is compressed. When the crank 23 rotates to a certain angle, it no longer presses against the roller. When the upward thrust is generated by 28, the elastic force of the spring 26 is released, causing the vibrating frame 11 to move downward. This process is repeated, and the vibrating frame 11 vibrates up and down, performing preliminary vibration and drainage on the frozen food. The sliding column 24 slides in the round groove at the top of the fixed base 20, which serves as a guide to ensure that the vibrating frame 11 moves up and down smoothly. Through the longitudinal vibration component 2, the vibrating frame 11 on which the frozen food is placed can vibrate up and down. During the vibration process, the frozen food is in a dynamic state within the vibrating frame 11, avoiding the situation where food accumulates and some areas are not drained sufficiently.
[0035] When heat-assisted draining is required, the hot air blower 30 is turned on. The hot air blower 30 is a GFD-500 and is existing technology. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 30 is sent into the vibrating frame 11 through the air guide pipe 31. Multiple evenly distributed air outlets can be set at the end of the air guide pipe 31. The hot air is evenly blown onto the frozen food in the vibrating frame 11. The heat-assisted draining component 3 can generate hot air to increase the ambient temperature. While vibrating and draining, it can accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the food, effectively shorten the draining time, and improve the draining efficiency. At the same time, the hot air at a certain temperature can inhibit the growth and reproduction of bacteria, reduce the possibility of bacterial growth, and ensure food hygiene and safety.
[0036] When a horizontal reciprocating draining operation is required, motor 40 is started. The output of motor 40 drives the rotating disk 41 to rotate. The cylinder 42, welded off-center on the right side wall of the rotating disk 41, slides within the straight groove of the straight groove plate 43. Since the movable column 44 welded on the front and rear sides of the straight groove plate 43 is slidably connected to the front and rear side walls of the vibrating frame 11, when the rotating disk 41 rotates, the cylinder 42 drives the straight groove plate 43 and the movable column 44 to move horizontally reciprocally. The lug 45 welded to the outer wall of the movable column 44 is connected to the draining mesh frame 46, thus making the draining mesh frame... The 46-carrying frozen food reciprocates laterally within the vibrating frame 11, further enhancing the drainage effect. The moving column 2 48 provides auxiliary support and guidance for the drainage frame 46, ensuring the stability of its lateral reciprocating motion. Through the set lateral reciprocating drainage component 4, the drainage frame 46 can be driven to reciprocate laterally, causing the frozen food to continuously change position in the horizontal direction. During this process, the moisture on different parts of the food surface will be more fully removed from the food surface under the action of vibration and inertia. In conjunction with the longitudinal vibration component 2, the thoroughness of drainage is greatly improved.
[0037] After the above-mentioned draining process, open the manual drain valve 13 on the drain pipe 12 at the bottom of the rear side wall of the vibrating frame 11 to drain the water accumulated in the vibrating frame 11 through the drain pipe 12, thus completing the entire draining process.
[0038] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
