Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of food processing, and particularly relates to a frying mechanism assembly and a continuous frying machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] Large food processing enterprises mostly use continuous frying machines to fry dough-based and meatball-based foods. The frying process mainly relies on the mesh belt conveyor of the stainless steel mesh belt conveyor to convey the frying materials from one end of the inner tank of the continuous frying machine to the other end. In general, the continuous frying machine is equipped with two mesh belt conveyors arranged one above the other to form a frying channel therebetween. The upper conveyor is used to press the materials, and the lower conveyor is used to support the materials, so as to constrain the position of the materials in the oil. Meanwhile, the materials are pushed by the pushing plates on the surface of the conveyor belt to realize the forward movement and tumbling of the materials.

[0003] The disadvantages of the current structure are that the arrangement of two sets of mesh belt conveyors increases the equipment cost, and the two-layer mesh belt conveyors arranged one above the other need to deepen the inner tank of the frying machine to ensure that the oil level can completely submerge the lower mesh belt conveyor and reach the position close to the upper mesh belt conveyor. This not only further increases the equipment cost, but also doubles the oil consumption during the frying process, thereby increasing the cost of frying processing. In addition, the simple pushing of the materials by the pushing plates can easily cause the materials to be pressed against the pushing plates and unable to tumble, so the continuous tumbling of the materials cannot be guaranteed, thereby affecting the uniformity of the surface of the fried products. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application provides a frying mechanism assembly and a continuous frying machine, which aims to reduce the equipment cost and oil consumption of the continuous frying machine and improve the uniformity of the surface of the fried products.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present application is as follows: in the first aspect, a frying mechanism assembly is provided, which comprises:

[0006] an inner tank, which is horizontally installed in a machine shell, and the side walls of the inner tank near both ends thereof are respectively provided with a feeding port and a discharging port. The inner tank is used to circulate high-temperature frying oil and make the high-temperature frying oil flow from the feeding port to the discharging port. The inner tank is provided with a first guide rail on the inner wall thereof;

The running track of the mesh belt conveyor includes an upper straight section and a lower straight section. The oil frying channel is formed between the upper straight section and the lower straight section. The two ends of the oil frying channel are respectively aligned with the feeding port and the discharging port. The mesh belt conveyor is provided with a plurality of rotary pushing units at intervals along the running track thereof;

[0008] When each rotating pushing unit walks to the lower flat section, the two ends of each rotating pushing unit roll on the first guide rail to tighten the mesh belt conveyor, and each rotating pushing unit located at the bottom of the frying channel pushes the fried material in the opposite direction of the flow of high-temperature frying oil.

[0018] In some embodiments, the peripheral wall of the roller is provided with a gear rack, and the lower rail surface of the first guide rail and the second guide rail are each provided with a gear tooth matched with the gear rack.

[0019] For example, the peripheral wall of the stirring roller is a corrugated surface or is provided with a plurality of stirring plates distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4The oil frying mechanism assembly provided by the application is described as follows. The oil frying mechanism assembly comprises an inner container 10 and a mesh belt conveyor 20. The inner container 10 is horizontally installed in a machine shell. The inner container 10 is provided with an inlet 11 and an outlet 12 at positions of the side walls close to the two ends of the inner container 10. The inner container 10 is used for circulating high-temperature frying oil and making the high-temperature frying oil flow from the inlet 11 to the outlet 12. The two side walls of the inner container 10 are provided with first guide rails 13. The mesh belt conveyor 20 is horizontally arranged in the inner container 10 and partially immersed in the high-temperature frying oil. The running track of the mesh belt conveyor 20 comprises an upper straight section 201 and a lower straight section 202. The oil frying channel 200 is formed between the upper straight section 201 and the lower straight section 202. The two ends of the oil frying channel 200 are aligned with the inlet 11 and the outlet 12, respectively. The mesh belt conveyor 20 is provided with a plurality of rotary material pushing units 30 at intervals along the running track thereof. When each rotary material pushing unit 30 runs to the lower straight section 202, the two ends of the rotary material pushing unit 30 roll and press the first guide rails 13 to tension the mesh belt conveyor 20. Each rotary material pushing unit 30 located at the bottom of the oil frying channel 200 pushes the fried material 40 in the direction opposite to the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil.

[0031] It should be noted that in the embodiment, the inner container 10 is provided with an inlet groove corresponding to the inlet 11 and an outlet groove corresponding to the outlet 12. The inlet groove and the outlet groove are in a common cavity structure with the inner container 10. That is, the high-temperature frying oil in the inner container 10 can enter the inlet groove through the inlet 11 and enter the outlet groove through the outlet 12. Thus, the fried material can be fed or discharged from the oil frying channel 200 formed between the upper and lower belt surfaces of the mesh belt conveyor 20.

[0032] It should be noted that in the embodiment, the high-temperature frying oil in the inner container 10 is circulated in the manner of entering at one end close to the inlet 11 and discharging at one end close to the outlet 12 to form a state of flowing from the oil inlet to the oil outlet in the inner container 10. The oil heating system is externally provided to continuously heat the high-temperature frying oil to ensure the temperature stability of the high-temperature frying oil in the inner container 10. In the embodiment, the liquid level of the high-temperature frying oil in the inner container 10 is at the middle position of the oil frying channel 200, that is, the high-temperature frying oil submerges the lower straight section 202 and approaches the upper straight section 201. Thus, the mesh belt conveyor 20 is partially immersed in the high-temperature oil liquid.

[0033] The movement direction of the lower flat section 202 of the mesh belt conveyor 20 in the embodiment is consistent with the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil, and the movement direction of the upper flat section 201 is opposite to the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil; thus, the lower flat section 202 can promote the flow of the high-temperature frying oil to the discharge port 12, thereby improving the circulating flow efficiency of the high-temperature frying oil, ensuring the oil temperature stability of the high-temperature frying oil, and avoiding the situation that the fried material 40 cannot follow the flow of the high-temperature frying oil and walk forward. On this basis, the reverse stirring action of the rotating stirring unit 30 on the fried material 40 can make the fried material 40 tumble, and the reverse stirring can also avoid the situation that the fried material 40 walks too fast and causes insufficient frying time. It should be understood that if the stirring direction of the rotating stirring unit 30 on the fried material 40 is consistent with the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil, the fried material 40 may accelerate forward but cannot turn over, so the embodiment adopts the reverse stirring mode. For the upper flat section 201, since its movement direction is opposite to the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil, the rotating stirring unit 30 that walks to the upper flat section 201 does not need to rotate and can form a reverse (relative movement) stirring on the fried material 40 to make the fried material 40 tumble.

[0034] In the embodiment, the main structure of the rotating stirring unit 30 can be a cylindrical shape with a corrugated peripheral wall, and rollers are arranged at both ends to roll with the first guide rail 13. During the walking process of the mesh belt conveyor 20 along its rotary running track, each rotating stirring unit 30 reaches the lower flat section 202 and makes its rollers roll on the first guide rail 13, and the rolling of the rollers on the first guide rail 13 provides the rotating stirring unit 30 with a rotating power. Specifically, the first guide rail 13 is on the upper side, and the rollers roll on the lower track surface of the first guide rail 13, thereby forming a state that the first guide rail 13 presses downward on the rollers. On the one hand, this can ensure that the rolling force between the rollers and the first guide rail 13 is sufficient, and on the other hand, it also plays a role in tensioning the mesh belt 24 of the mesh belt conveyor 20. Since the first guide rail 13 is on the upper side, the rotating direction of the rotating stirring unit 30 is the same as the rotary running direction of the mesh belt conveyor 20, so the tangential rotation of the rotating stirring unit 30 in the oil frying channel 200 is opposite to the movement direction of the lower flat section 202, and the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil is the same as the movement direction of the lower flat section 202. Therefore, the rotating stirring unit 30 forms a reverse stirring action on the fried material 40, thereby making the fried material 40 tumble. Since the rotating stirring unit 30 is in dynamic rotation, it can avoid the situation that the fried material 40 cannot tumble when it abuts against the rotating stirring unit 30, thereby ensuring the continuity of the tumbling of the fried material 40 and improving the uniformity of the frying of each surface of the fried material 40.

[0035] It should be understood that the rotation of the rotation stirring units 30 in the direction opposite to the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil not only causes the frying material 40 to tumble, but also causes the rotation stirring units 30 located at the lower flat section 202 to make the frying material 40 float upward during tumbling, and causes the rotation stirring units 30 located at the upper flat section 201 to make the frying material 40 sink downward during tumbling, so that the frying material 40 forms a movement track as shown in Figure 4 , and continuously tumbles and floats up and down in the oil frying channel 200, thereby further improving the uniformity of frying of each surface of the frying material 40.

[0036] The oil frying mechanism assembly provided by the embodiment uses the area between the upper and lower belt surfaces of the mesh belt conveyor 20 as the oil frying channel 200, and the frying material 40 is caused to move toward the discharge port 12 under the driving of the flowing high-temperature frying oil after entering the oil frying channel 200 from the feeding port 11. Meanwhile, each rotation stirring unit 30 walking to the bottom of the oil frying channel 200 is rolled on the first guide rail 13 to obtain rotation power, so as to stir the frying material 40 in the direction opposite to the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil. The frying material 40 is caused to continuously tumble during walking under the combined action of the driving of the high-temperature frying oil and the stirring of the rotation stirring unit 30, so as to ensure that the frying degree of the surface of the frying material 40 is uniform and consistent, and improve the quality of the frying product. Compared with the current method of using two layers of mesh belt conveyors 20, the equipment cost can be greatly reduced, and the liquid level height of the high-temperature frying oil required by the inner container 10 can be greatly reduced, so as to reduce the amount of frying oil and processing cost.

[0037] In some possible implementation manners, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The two side walls of the inner container 10 are provided with second guide rails 14, and the second guide rails 14 are located above the first guide rails 13. Each rotation stirring unit 30 is rolled on the second guide rail 14 at both ends to tension the mesh belt conveyor 20 when walking to the upper flat section 201, and causes each rotation stirring unit 30 located at the top of the oil frying channel 200 to stir the frying material 40 in the direction opposite to the flow direction of the high-temperature frying oil.

[0038] Since the frying material 40 is in a floating state on the liquid surface of the high-temperature frying oil when contacting the rotation stirring unit 30 of the upper flat section 201, if the rotation stirring unit 30 only moves in a straight line in the opposite direction without rotating, the frying material 40 may not be able to rotate against the rotation stirring unit 30. Therefore, the rotation stirring unit 30 is driven to rotate by rolling the two ends of the rotation stirring unit 30 on the second guide rail 14 in the upper flat section 201, so as to improve the tumbling and stirring effect of the rotation stirring unit 30 on the frying material 40 in the upper flat section 201.

[0039] As a specific implementation manner of the mesh belt conveyor 20, please refer toFigure 1 The mesh belt conveyor 20 comprises a driving shaft, a driven shaft, two transmission chains 23, and a plurality of rotating stirring units 30; the driving shaft is rotationally connected to one end of the inner container 10, and the driving shaft is sleeved with two driving sprockets 21 at intervals along the axial direction of the driving shaft; the driven shaft is rotationally connected to the other end of the inner container 10, and the driven shaft is sleeved with two driven sprockets 22 at intervals along the axial direction of the driven shaft, and the two driven sprockets 22 are aligned with the two driving sprockets 21, respectively; the two transmission chains 23 are sleeved with the driving sprockets 21 and the driven sprockets 22 aligned with each other, respectively, and the two transmission chains 23 are connected with the mesh belt 24 therebetween; each rotating stirring unit 30 protrudes from the surface of the mesh belt 24 towards the inside of the frying channel 200, and the two ends thereof are rotationally connected with the two transmission chains 23 and used for rolling the first guide rail 13 and the second guide rail 14.

[0040] The mesh belt conveyor 20 uses the transmission chains 23 to cooperate with the driving sprockets 21 and the driven sprockets 22 at the two side edges, and the mesh belt 24 connected between the two transmission chains 23 is driven to move along the rotation track by rotating the driving shaft by a rotating driving member such as a motor, so that the mesh belt 24 completely blocks the frying materials 40, and the part of the rotating stirring unit 30 protruding from the surface of the mesh belt 24 stirs the frying materials 40. Since the rotating stirring unit 30 is integrated on the mesh belt 24, the structure is compact, the space is saved, the oil consumption is reduced, and the cost is saved.

[0041] Optionally, as shown in Figure 2 and 3 , the mesh belt 24 is spaced apart from the positions of the rotating stirring units 30 in the embodiment and is provided with a row of avoiding holes 241, and a connecting sleeve 242 is arranged between adjacent avoiding holes 241; the rotating stirring unit 30 comprises a rotating shaft 31, a roller 32 sleeved on both ends of the rotating shaft 31, and a plurality of stirring rollers 33 sleeved on the rotating shaft 31 at intervals along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 31; the roller 32 is connected to the transmission chain 23 and used for rolling the first guide rail 13, the rotating shaft 31 sequentially penetrates through the connecting sleeves 242 and rotationally cooperates with the connecting sleeves 242, and each stirring roller 33 is located in each avoiding hole 241; when the roller 32 rolls on the first guide rail 13, the stirring roller 33 rotates in the same direction as the driving sprocket 21; when the roller 32 rolls on the second guide rail 14, the stirring roller 33 rotates in the opposite direction of the driving sprocket 21.

[0042] The avoiding hole 241 is arranged to accommodate the poking roller 33, and the connecting sleeve 242 is arranged between the adjacent avoiding holes 241 and is suitable for the rotating shaft 31 to pass through, the connecting sleeve 242 is used to form a connection at the position between the adjacent rows of the mesh belt 24, so as to ensure the overall continuity of the mesh belt 24 and improve the compactness of the structure; the first guide rail 13 is located above the lower flat section 202, when the rotating poking unit 30 walks to the lower flat section 202, the both-end rollers 32 are rolled on the lower rail surface of the first guide rail 13, so that the rollers 32 are in the same rotating direction as the driving sprocket 21, and then the rotating tangential direction of each poking roller 33 at the upper edge inside the frying channel 200 is opposite to the flowing direction of the high-temperature frying oil, so that the reverse poking of the fried material 40 is realized; the second guide rail 14 is located above the upper flat section 201, when the rotating poking unit 30 walks to the upper flat section 201, the both-end rollers 32 are rolled on the lower rail surface of the second guide rail 14, since the walking direction of the upper flat section 201 is opposite to that of the lower flat section 202, so that the rollers 32 are opposite to the rotating direction of the driving sprocket 21, and then the rotating tangential direction of each poking roller 33 at the lower edge inside the frying channel 200 is opposite to the flowing direction of the high-temperature frying oil, so that the reverse poking of the fried material 40 is realized; the structure is simple and compact, the overall height size can be compressed, so that the frying oil amount is reduced and the cost is saved.

[0043] In the embodiment, the diameter of the roller 32 is smaller than the diameter of the poking roller 33. Since the roller 32 has the same rolling linear speed as the walking speed of the transmission chain 23 under the traction of the transmission chain 23 along the rolling lines of the first guide rail 13 and the second guide rail 14, and the diameter of the poking roller 33 is larger than the diameter of the roller 32, the edge linear speed of the poking roller 33 in the frying channel 200 is greater than the rolling linear speed of the roller 32, so that the reverse poking effect of the poking roller 33 on the fried material 40 exceeds the driving effect of the poking roller 33 on the fried material 40 due to the forward walking of the transmission chain 23, so that the fried material 40 obtains the power of rolling to the obliquely rear side under the poking of the poking roller 33, avoiding the fried material 40 from walking too fast in the frying channel 200 to affect the frying effect. In addition, considering that the rotary poking unit 30 walking to the lower flat section 202 will be completely immersed in the high-temperature frying oil, the excessive rotation speed of the poking roller 33 will affect the flow stability of the high-temperature frying oil, so it is only necessary to ensure that the rotation linear speed of the poking roller 33 is higher than the walking speed of the transmission chain 23. The upper flat section 201 is located above the liquid level of the high-temperature frying oil, so the rotary poking unit 30 walking to the upper flat section 201 only pokes the exposed surface of the fried material 40 floating on the liquid level, and therefore the rotary poking unit 30 of the upper flat section 201 should provide more sufficient poking force to the fried material 40. Under this requirement, the floating fried material 40 is moved to the obliquely rear side and sinks downward to the liquid level by the rotation poking force of the poking roller 33 and the driving force of the fried material 40 generated by the reverse movement of the poking roller 33 along the flow of the high-temperature frying oil, so that the fried material 40 forms a movement trajectory as shown in Figure 4 in the frying channel 200, thereby improving the frying quality.

[0044] It should be noted that, referring to Figure 2 , the inner container 10 is provided with a blocking plate 15 on each side, and a transmission cavity is formed between each blocking plate 15 and the inner wall of the inner container 10. The drive sprocket 21, the driven sprocket 22 and the transmission chain 23 are located in the transmission cavity, and the mesh belt 24 is located between the two blocking plates 15.

[0045] The transmission cavity formed on each side of the inner container 10 by the blocking plate 15 can avoid the fried material 40 from contacting the transmission chain 23. The blocking plate 15 blocks the fried material 40 from entering the transmission cavity, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of jamming and improving the smoothness and stability of the equipment.

[0046] Specifically, referring to Figure 2In the embodiment, two transverse partitions 16 are arranged in the transmission cavity in an up-down direction, the two ends of the transverse partitions 16 are connected with the material blocking plate 15 and the side wall of the inner container 10 respectively, and the first guide rail 13 and the second guide rail 14 are fixedly connected to the two transverse partitions 16 respectively. By arranging the transverse partitions 16 in the transmission cavity, on one hand, the connection reliability of the material blocking plate 15 can be improved, and on the other hand, the transverse partitions 16 can be used as the connection basis of the first guide rail 13 and the second guide rail 14, so that the connection convenience and compactness of the first guide rail 13 and the second guide rail 14 are improved.

[0047] In order to avoid the slippage between the roller 32 and the first guide rail 13 and the second guide rail 14 and affect the rotation stability of the material pushing roller 33, the peripheral wall of the roller 32 is provided with a roller gear, and the lower rail surface of the first guide rail 13 and the second guide rail 14 is provided with a gear tooth matched with the roller gear.

[0048] It should be understood that, in order to improve the pushing effect of the material pushing roller 33 on the fried material 40, in the embodiment, the material pushing roller 33 adopts the structure as shown in Figure 2 , the peripheral wall of the material pushing roller 33 is a corrugated surface or is provided with a plurality of material pushing plates 331 distributed in the circumferential direction.

[0049] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , the inner container 10 is provided with an oil inlet pipe 17 at one end close to the material inlet 11, a plurality of oil injection nozzles 171 are arranged on the oil inlet pipe 17 and are directed to the other end of the inner container 10, and the inner container 10 is provided with an oil outlet pipe 18 at the bottom of one end close to the material outlet 12. The oil inlet pipe 17 is connected with the hot oil outlet of an external oil heater, and the oil outlet pipe 18 is connected with the oil return port of the external oil heater, so that the high-temperature frying oil can flow continuously in the inner container 10 from the material inlet 11 to the material outlet 12, thereby driving the fried material 40 to move from the material inlet 11 to the material outlet 12 by the flow of high-temperature frying oil, and the mesh belt conveyor 20 plays a role in rolling and pushing the fried material 40. Compared with the method of driving the fried material 40 to pass through the oil frying channel 200 by the mesh belt conveyor 20, the structure compactness can be improved, the movement of the fried material 40 in the oil frying channel 200 can be improved, the flow rate of the high-temperature frying oil can be controlled by controlling the flow of the oil inlet pipe 17 and the oil outlet pipe 18, so that the passing time of the fried material 40 in the oil frying channel 200 is stable and controllable, the control accuracy of the frying time is improved, and the product frying quality is improved.

[0050] Based on the same inventive concept, in combination with Figures 1 to 4 , it is understood that the embodiments of the present application also provide a continuous oil frying machine comprising the above oil frying mechanism assembly.
