Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of raw material processing, and in particular to a food raw material processing device and method. Background Art

[0002] The storage of food raw materials is an important part of ensuring food quality and safety. The following are some requirements for the storage of food raw materials:

[0003] Quality First: First, the quality of food ingredients must be ensured so that they maintain their edible value during storage. This includes selecting ingredients that are fresh, free of pests and contamination.

[0004] Classification and storage: According to the type, characteristics and storage conditions of the raw materials, they should be stored in fixed areas and categories. For example, root vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and pumpkins should be stored in a cool and dry place, while leafy vegetables should be kept away from cutting, kept dry, and stored at a temperature below 0 degrees.

[0005] Pay attention to temperature and humidity: Different food ingredients require different storage temperatures and humidity. Generally speaking, room temperature storage is mainly used for ingredients that are not easy to perish or deteriorate, while refrigeration and freezing are suitable for ingredients that are easily perishable and easy to deteriorate. Ensuring that the temperature and humidity of the storage environment are appropriate can extend the shelf life of the ingredients.

[0006] Prevent contamination and odor transfer: Store food ingredients with special odors separately from other ingredients to prevent odor transfer. At the same time, keep the storage environment clean and hygienic to avoid contamination.

[0007] Follow the first-in, first-out principle: Pay close attention to the expiration date of food and follow the first-in, first-out principle for storage and retrieval. This helps ensure the freshness and safety of food ingredients.

[0008] Use appropriate storage tools: Choose appropriate storage tools according to the characteristics of the raw materials, such as plastic wrap, sealed cans, kitchen paper, etc. These tools can help maintain the freshness and hygiene of the raw materials.

[0009] Regular inspection and handling: Regularly check the condition of food ingredients. If mold, insect infestation, odor, etc. are found, they should be handled immediately and cleared out of the storage area. This helps prevent contamination and cross contamination.

[0010] When existing food raw material storage devices are working, first of all, manual labor or special equipment is needed to package and seal the raw materials. During the storage process, other equipment is needed to adjust the temperature and pressure of the storage space. Therefore, the entire storage process is highly dependent on manual labor, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and requires the use of multiple devices, resulting in high energy consumption and insufficient energy conservation and environmental protection. These links will affect the effect of raw material storage, and ultimately affect the quality of the finished products of food processing. In addition, the existing food raw material storage process and processing process are independent of each other, and need to use different equipment and be completed in different places, which is not conducive to resource utilization and efficiency improvement. Summary of the invention

[0011] In view of the problems existing in the background technology, a food raw material processing device and method are proposed, which are equipped with a circulating conveyor and a sealed storage component. Through the rotation of the conveyor belt, the sealed storage bag and the raw material are put in turn, and finally the sealed storage bag is immersed in liquid and stored in the solution. The temperature and sealing of the stored raw materials are adjusted in real time by the recyclable liquid, so that the raw material storage process saves time and labor, has strong energy conservation and environmental protection, and has a good storage effect. At the same time, the storage process can process the raw materials, which is conducive to the utilization of resources and the improvement of efficiency.

A storage bag inlet 5 and a feeding piece 6 are arranged on the top of the storage box 1, and a discharge door 7 is arranged on the side; a temperature regulating device is arranged inside the liquid storage box 2 and liquid is stored, and the liquid is circulated between the storage box 1 and the liquid storage box 2 through the cooperation of multiple groups of pipes 3 and a circulating pump 4; a circulating conveying piece 8 is located in the storage box 1, and two groups are arranged at intervals one in front and the other in the back, and the two conveying ends move synchronously in a closed-loop trajectory; multiple groups of sealed storage components 9 are arranged, which are evenly distributed on the conveying end of the circulating conveying piece 8; the sealed storage bags 10 are arranged one by one on the sealed storage components 9, on the one hand, the opening and closing of the bag mouth is controlled by the sealed storage components 9 to facilitate the storage of raw materials, and on the other hand, the temperature and pressure are controlled by immersing in liquid. When the sealed storage bag 10 is immersed in the liquid, the air in the bag is discharged under the influence of the hydraulic pressure, so as to reduce the volume and facilitate storage. In addition, by adjusting the temperature of the liquid, the temperature of the sealed raw materials immersed therein can be controlled, so that the pressure and temperature are synchronously regulated, which is convenient for the effective preservation of food raw materials.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the circulating conveyor 8 includes a rotating disk 802 driven by a driving member (such as a motor) to rotate and connect to the inner wall of the liquid storage tank 2, and a conveyor belt 801 sleeved between two sets of rotating disks 802; the conveyor belt 801 is the conveying end. A space for installing the sealed storage assembly 9 is reserved between the two sets of conveyor belts 801; the sealed storage assembly 9 moves from the storage bag inlet 5 to the feed member 6 and then to the bottom of the storage tank 1 as the conveyor belt 801 rotates, so as to be immersed in the liquid.

[0038] like Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the sealed storage component 9 includes an outer mounting frame 901 arranged between two groups of conveyor belts 801; the outer mounting frame 901 moves synchronously with the rotation of the two groups of conveyor belts 801, and always maintains a horizontal state, so that the bag mouth of the sealed storage bag 10 faces upward to prevent the raw materials from overflowing during the movement. A rotatable inner mounting frame 902 is arranged in the outer mounting frame 901, and the rotation here is achieved by arranging a driving device on the outer mounting frame 901, such as a motor or a vibrator. The inner mounting frame 902 is driven and shakes to a certain extent. This shaking can achieve the purpose of spreading the raw materials flat, making them tight, and facilitating subsequent sealing and compression.

[0039] It should be further explained that two sets of sealing plates 903 are arranged in the installation inner frame 902; the sealing ends of the two sets of sealing plates 903 are opposite to each other, and the opening and closing of the bag mouth of the sealed storage bag 10 are controlled from the outside.

When cooperating with the storage bag inlet 5 and the feeding piece 6, the mounting outer frame 901 moves up and approaches the storage bag inlet 5 and the feeding piece 6. When immersed in liquid, the mounting outer frame 901 moves down to increase the immersion depth and thereby obtain greater hydraulic pressure. In addition, the up and down movement of the mounting outer frame 901 cooperates with the rotation of the mounting inner frame 902 to further strengthen the shaking of the raw materials, which is beneficial to the compaction of the raw materials and the mixing of the liquid to make its temperature uniform.

[0043] It needs to be further explained that the outer frame 901 is provided with a second driving motor to drive the inner frame 902 to rotate, and the outer frame 901 and the inner frame 902 rotate on staggered horizontal planes; the outer frame 901 and the conveyor belt 801 rotate on parallel horizontal planes; the rotation of the outer frame 901 is used to maintain the bag opening position of the sealed storage bag 10, the rotation of the inner frame 902 is used to reduce the volume of the raw materials, and the rotation of the conveyor belt 801 is used to transport the sealed storage bag 10; the triple rotation functions are different.
