Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of preserved egg pickling technology, and more particularly to a preserved egg pickling jar with an egg-turning function. Background Technology

[0002] According to the search, CN102630972B discloses a method for rapidly producing lead-free preserved eggs using an acid immersion and pressure method. The method involves soaking the raw eggs in a citric acid solution, rinsing them with cooled boiled water, drying them, and then placing the acid-soaked duck eggs into a pickling vat. The pickling solution is then poured into the vat. During the pickling process, the raw eggs need to be removed to observe the coagulation status and color changes.

[0003] The existing containers used for pickling preserved eggs are mostly earthenware jars and plastic barrels, in which the preserved eggs are stacked. However, the above-mentioned production method requires taking out and putting in all the raw eggs multiple times, manually handling and scooping them out with plastic baskets. This process involves many egg removals, is inefficient, and easily damages the raw eggs.

[0004] Furthermore, during the pickling process, broken and rotten eggs may occur, and it is necessary to observe the coagulation status and color changes of the eggs. If the existing tanks are used, if the staff wants to observe the coagulation status and color changes of all the eggs, or remove the broken and rotten eggs at the bottom, all the raw eggs in the tank need to be removed. If only the raw eggs at the top are taken as samples, the condition of the eggs at the bottom is easily overlooked, and the broken and rotten eggs at the bottom are not easily detected.

[0005] After the preserved eggs are made, the inspected preserved eggs are placed in a coating agent and then removed with a strainer. This process requires additional containers and strainers, which is troublesome. After the process is completed, the additional utensils also need to be cleaned. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to improve the pickling efficiency of preserved eggs, optimize the operation process, and reduce the manpower required and operation difficulty.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a preserved egg pickling jar with an egg-turning function, comprising a pickling jar, wherein a sealing lid is installed on the top of the pickling jar, and multiple egg racks are slidably mounted on the bottom of the sealing lid, and each egg rack has several inclined plates forming inclined channels in its inner cavity.

[0008] A rectangular hole is provided at one end of the inclined plate near the bottom of the egg rack. The inclined channels are connected end to end through the rectangular hole. A locking structure for locking the egg rack is installed at the bottom of the sealing cover.

[0009] The egg rack has observation holes and egg retrieval holes on both sides corresponding to the inclined channel. The egg rack is magnetically mounted with a baffle at the egg retrieval hole. The egg rack and the inclined plate are respectively provided with through holes one and two to allow the marinade to flow between each other.

[0010] The bottom of the egg rack is equipped with a coating channel, and a pusher plate that drives the preserved eggs to move in the coating channel is slidably installed in the coating channel. The egg outlet at the top of the egg rack is equipped with a rotatable top plate, and the egg outlet at the bottom of the side of the egg rack is equipped with a magnetic stop.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: the locking structure includes a support plate fixed to the bottom of the sealing cover, a drive rod rotatably connected to the support plate, and protruding posts fixed to the top of both sides of the egg rack.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: the outer ring of the drive rod is provided with several threads, the adjacent threads are in opposite directions, and several locking plates are threaded on the outer ring of the drive rod, the locking plates being engaged with the protrusions.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: the bottom side of the egg rack is provided with a sliding hole that extends through to the coating channel, and a push rod that extends through the sliding hole is fixed on the push plate.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: the bottom of the egg rack is provided with a water outlet that extends through to the coating channel, and a waterproof plug is installed at the water outlet.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution: a flexible pad is fixed at one end of the inclined plate near the bottom of the marinating tank, and a through hole communicating with the outside of the egg rack is provided at one end of the inclined channel of the egg rack near the top of the marinating tank.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution: the top of the inclined channel is provided with a limiting plate, the bottom of the limiting plate is fixed with a protective pad, and the top of the limiting plate is fixed with a positioning rod, which passes through the egg rack and is connected to the egg rack by bolts.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution: the bottom of the sealing cover is fixed with a slide base, and the top of both sides of the egg rack is fixed with slide tracks, which are slidably connected to the slide base.

[0018] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] 1. The top of the pickling jar is equipped with a sealing lid. The sealing lid not only ensures the airtightness of the pickling environment, preventing external contamination and evaporation of the pickling liquid, but also allows all the egg racks to be moved out together when the jar is removed, simplifying the operation steps and improving work efficiency. In addition, the bottom of the sealing lid is equipped with a locking structure, which can lock the egg racks without moving them, preventing the eggs from shifting or breaking due to vibration or other accidental factors.

[0020] 2. The egg rack has multiple inclined channels inside via a tilting plate, arranged from top to bottom. These channels have rectangular holes, allowing several raw eggs to roll down to the bottom of the rack under gravity, facilitating the placement and removal of the raw eggs. Furthermore, the design of the egg rack allows the preserved eggs to be placed more systematically in the pickling jar. In addition, the egg rack has observation holes and egg retrieval holes on both sides, which are at the same angle as the inclined channels, making it convenient for staff to monitor the pickling status of the eggs and to retrieve them easily.

[0021] 3. The bottom of the egg rack is equipped with a coating channel, in which a pusher plate is slidably installed. After the preserved eggs are pickled, they are placed in the coating channel. Pushing the pusher plate moves the preserved eggs in the coating channel while turning them over. A small amount of coating agent can be evenly applied to the surface of the preserved eggs, which not only saves coating agent, but also reduces material waste and costs.

[0022] 4. The egg-laying opening at the top of the egg rack makes it easy for staff to place eggs. The top of the egg rack is equipped with a rotatable top plate, which works with the sealing cover to better seal the egg-laying opening at the top of the egg rack. The egg outlet at the bottom of the side is equipped with a magnetic block, making it easy for operators to remove eggs. The magnetic block can also conveniently seal the egg outlet.

[0023] 5. Through the observation hole, egg retrieval hole, through hole one, and through hole two, the pickling liquid in the pickling tank can enter the egg rack, allowing the pickling liquid to fully contact the raw eggs, and the pickling liquid in each inclined channel can also circulate with each other.

[0036] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Please see Figures 1-7 This invention provides a preserved egg pickling tank with an egg-turning function, including a pickling tank 10. A sealing lid 11 is installed on the top of the pickling tank 10. The sealing lid 11 can ensure the airtightness of the pickling environment and prevent external contamination and evaporation of the pickling liquid. Several egg racks 20 are slidably installed on the bottom of the sealing lid 11. When the sealing lid 11 is removed from the pickling tank 10, all the egg racks 20 can be pulled away from the pickling tank 10 together. The operator does not need to move the egg racks 20 after moving the sealing lid 11, which greatly simplifies the operation process and improves work efficiency. The egg racks 20 are divided into two halves and connected together by bolts.

[0038] The bottom of the sealing cover 11 is also equipped with a locking structure 30. The locking structure 30 can lock the egg rack 20 without moving it, so as to prevent accidental vibration or other reasons from causing the egg rack 20 to move accidentally and thus causing the eggs in the egg rack 20 to break.

[0039] The inner cavity of the egg rack 20 has several inclined channels. Specifically, the inner cavity of the egg rack 20 is divided into multiple inclined channels by multiple inclined plates 21. Each inclined channel has a certain inclination angle. These inclined channels are arranged from top to bottom. The inclined plate 21 has a rectangular hole 211 at one end near the bottom of the marinating jar 10. These inclined channels are connected end to end through the rectangular hole 211. When several raw eggs are put into the egg rack 20 from the top, the raw eggs roll down along these inclined channels under the action of gravity. Through the rectangular hole 211, the raw eggs move from the top inclined channel to the bottom inclined channel and finally stop at the bottom of the egg rack 20. With the design of the inclined channels, the operator can easily and conveniently put the raw eggs into the egg rack 20.

[0040] With the design of the inclined channel, after the pickling is completed, when the staff takes out a preserved egg from the bottom outlet of the egg rack 20, the adjacent preserved eggs will automatically roll along the inclined surface to the position of the preserved egg that was taken out, making it convenient for the staff to continue taking eggs; the egg rack 20 can also prevent the raw eggs from piling up in the pickling tank 10, so that the preserved eggs are placed in the pickling tank 10 in a more organized manner.

[0041] Several observation holes 201 and egg removal holes 202 are provided on the sides of the egg rack 20. The observation holes 201 and egg removal holes 202 are both inclined and are in the same direction as the inclined channel. Through the observation holes 201 and egg removal holes 202, the coagulation status, smell and color change of each layer of raw eggs can be seen more comprehensively. In addition, the observation holes 201 are smaller than the egg removal holes 202, so the raw eggs in the inclined channel cannot be taken out from the observation holes 201. The observation holes 201 and egg removal holes 202 also allow the marinating liquid in the marinating tank 10 to enter the egg rack 20, so that the marinating liquid can fully contact the raw eggs.

[0042] The egg rack 20 is equipped with a magnetically connected baffle 22 at the egg retrieval hole 202. The baffle 22 can prevent the raw eggs from falling out of the egg retrieval hole 202. During the pickling process, when the staff needs to take out sample eggs from a specific batch and layer for testing, the staff manually removes the baffle 22 and then takes out the sample eggs from the egg retrieval hole 202. In the event of broken or rotten eggs in a specific channel, broken or rotten eggs can also be quickly removed.

[0043] The egg rack 20 and the inclined plate 21 are respectively provided with through holes 1 203 and 204. The pickling liquid in the pickling tank 10 can further enter the egg rack 20 through through holes 1 203 and 204, and the pickling liquid in each inclined channel can circulate with each other, so that the raw eggs can have better contact with the pickling liquid.

[0044] The bottom of the egg rack 20 is provided with a coating channel, and a pusher plate 23 is slidably installed in the coating channel. After the preserved eggs are pickled, the preserved eggs are placed in the coating agent in the coating channel. By moving the pusher plate 23, the preserved eggs are moved and rolled in the coating channel, so that the coating agent is evenly coated on the surface of the preserved eggs. This method eliminates the need for additional containers and strainers. When the preserved eggs are placed in the coating channel, they do not need to be completely immersed in the coating agent. Only a small amount of coating agent is needed to complete the coating, which greatly saves coating agent and reduces material waste and costs.

[0045] The egg rack 20 has a rotatable top plate 24 at the egg outlet, while the egg outlet on its side bottom is equipped with a magnetic stop 25. Rotating the top plate 24 opens the egg rack 20, allowing raw eggs to be placed into the egg rack 20 from the egg outlet. The inner cavity of the egg rack 20 has a support block that contacts the bottom of the top plate 24, preventing the top plate 24 from rotating towards the inner cavity of the egg rack 20. When the locking structure 30 locks the egg rack 20, the top plate 24 is at the bottom of the sealing cover 11, which prevents the top plate 24 from rotating away from the inner cavity of the egg rack 20. The stop 25 is magnetically connected to the egg outlet of the egg rack 20, allowing operators to easily remove and place the stop 25, which prevents eggs from being discharged from the egg outlet.

[0046] Furthermore, the locking structure 30 includes a support plate 31 fixed to the bottom of the sealing cover 11. A drive rod 32 is rotatably connected to the support plate 31. Protrusions 26 are fixed to the top of both sides of the egg rack 20. The outer ring of the drive rod 32 is provided with several threads, with adjacent threads in opposite directions. Several locking plates 33 are fitted onto the outer ring of the drive rod 32. By engaging the locking plates 33 with the protrusions 26, the egg rack 20 can be prevented from moving accidentally during the marinating process due to equipment vibration or other external factors, thereby protecting the eggs inside from damage.

[0047] When in use, the staff only needs to rotate the drive rod 32 to easily lock or unlock the egg rack 20. The operation is simple and convenient, which improves work efficiency. Specifically, when the staff rotates the drive rod 32, the locking plate 33 on the outer ring of the drive rod 32 moves towards the protrusion 26, allowing the protrusion 26 to insert into the locking plate 33. At this time, the rotation of the drive rod 32 stops, and the egg rack 20 is locked to prevent accidental vibration or other reasons from causing the egg rack 20 to move accidentally, which could lead to the eggs in the egg rack 20 breaking.

[0048] Furthermore, the bottom of the side of the egg rack 20 has a sliding hole 205 that extends through to the coating channel. A push rod 27 that extends through the sliding hole 205 is fixed on the push plate 23. When the staff pushes the push rod 27, the push plate 23 can move in the coating channel, thereby moving and rolling the preserved eggs in the coating channel to ensure that the preserved eggs are evenly coated with the coating agent. The sliding hole 205 can limit the movement trajectory of the push rod 27 to ensure that the push plate 23 moves smoothly in the coating channel.

[0049] The bottom of the egg rack 20 is provided with a water outlet that extends through to the coating channel. When the egg rack 20 is removed from the marinating tank 10, the remaining marinating liquid in the egg rack 20 can be discharged through the water outlet. At the same time, the water outlet can also discharge the coating liquid in the coating channel. A waterproof plug 28 is installed at the water outlet. The waterproof plug 28 can block the water outlet when needed to prevent liquid leakage.

[0050] Furthermore, a flexible pad 212 is fixed to one end of the inclined plate 21 near the bottom of the pickling tank 10. The flexible pad 212 reduces the impact force generated when the raw eggs come into contact with hard materials when passing through the inclined channel, effectively reducing the breakage rate of the eggs. The inclined channel inside the egg rack 20 is provided with a through hole 203 at one end near the top of the pickling tank 10, which communicates with the outside of the egg rack 20. The pickling liquid in the pickling tank 10 can easily enter the egg rack 20 through the through hole 203, ensuring that the pickling liquid and the raw eggs are in full contact, thus improving the pickling efficiency and quality.

[0051] Furthermore, a limiting plate 40 is provided at the top of the inclined channel, a protective pad 41 is fixed at the bottom of the limiting plate 40, a positioning rod 42 is fixed at the top of the limiting plate 40, the positioning rod 42 passes through the egg rack 20 and is connected to the egg rack 20 by bolts, a slide seat 12 is fixed at the bottom of the sealing cover 11, and slide rails 13 are fixed at the top of both sides of the egg rack 20, and the slide rails 13 are slidably connected to the slide seat 12.

[0052] The limiting plate 40 can limit the height of the inclined channel. The bottom of the inclined channel is in contact with the bottom of the raw egg. The bottom of the limiting plate 40 is very close to the top of the raw egg. The limiting plate 40 can prevent the raw egg from floating up and then suddenly dropping down after the egg rack 20 is taken out, causing the egg to collide with the egg rack 20 and break.

[0053] The usage process of this invention:

[0054] First, open the sealing cover 11, causing all the egg racks 20 to detach from the marinating jar 10, releasing the locking structure 30, sliding the egg racks 20 to expose the egg outlet at the top of the egg racks 20, opening the top plate 24, and placing the raw eggs into the egg racks 20 from the egg outlet. After placement, reset the egg racks 20 and the locking structure 30, remove the waterproof plug 28, put cooled boiled water into the marinating jar 10, reset the sealing cover 11, and wash the egg racks 20 and the raw eggs inside with cooled boiled water. Then take out the egg racks 20 and the raw eggs inside to dry.

[0055] Pour out the cooled boiled water used for cleaning, clean the marinating jar 10, put citric acid solution into the marinating jar 10, then put the egg rack 20 and the raw eggs inside into the citric acid solution to soak, then take them out, wash them with cooled boiled water and let them dry; pour the prepared marinade into the marinating jar 10, put in the egg rack 20 and the raw eggs, and marinate.

[0056] During the pickling process, the egg rack 20 and raw eggs should be removed. The coagulation status and color change of the eggs should be observed through the observation hole 201 and the egg removal hole 202. If any broken or bad eggs are found, the baffle 22 should be removed, and the broken or bad eggs can be quickly removed through the egg removal hole 202. After pickling is complete, the sealing cap 11 should be removed, along with the egg rack 20. The residual liquid in the egg rack 20 should be drained from the outlet.

[0057] Then, plug the outlet with the waterproof plug 28, put the coating agent into the coating channel, remove the baffle 25, take a preserved egg from the egg outlet, put the preserved egg into the coating channel, and move the preserved egg while rolling in the coating channel by moving the push plate 23, so that the coating agent is evenly applied to the surface of the preserved egg.

[0058] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
