Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rice dumpling processing, and in particular to a rapid cooling device for making rice dumplings. Background Art

[0002] Zongzi is a traditional Chinese festival food, which is especially popular during the Dragon Boat Festival. Zongzi is made of glutinous rice and other fillings (such as red bean paste, meat, egg yolk, etc.) wrapped in bamboo leaves or other plant leaves and cooked.

[0003] There are many methods for processing zongzi on the market today. Common cooling technologies include natural cooling and forced convection cooling. Natural cooling reduces the temperature of zongzi through natural changes in ambient temperature; forced convection cooling relies on forced airflow to accelerate the cooling process. Both methods can effectively ensure that the temperature of zongzi reaches the safe temperature standard for consumption, thus ensuring food safety for consumers.

[0004] However, the cooling rate of natural cooling and forced convection cooling in the existing technology is relatively low, and the long cooling process will delay the market launch time of the rice dumplings, which not only increases the storage cost, but also may cause the rice dumplings to suffer physical damage during transportation and storage, thus affecting product quality and market competitiveness.

[0005] A quick cooling device for making zongzi is proposed for this reason. Summary of the invention

[0006] The object of the present invention is to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology, and provide a kind of rapid cooling equipment for making rice dumplings.

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention specifically adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] A rapid cooling device for making rice dumplings, comprising a soaking box assembly, wherein two groups of electric push rods are arranged on the soaking box assembly, and L-shaped mounting frames are fixedly installed at the ends of the electric push rods, and net box assemblies are rotatably installed in the two groups of L-shaped mounting frames for storing steamed rice dumplings, a cold water assembly for cooling the cold water in the soaking box assembly is arranged inside the soaking box assembly, a water circulation assembly for circulating the cold water in the soaking box assembly is arranged on the surface of the soaking box assembly, a bracket is fixedly installed on the soaking box assembly and located at the opening, and a plurality of blowing assemblies are arranged in the bracket.

[0009] Furthermore, a metal protective net is fixedly installed on the bracket and below the multiple groups of blowing components, and a controller is fixedly installed on the surface of the bracket.

[0011] Furthermore, the net box assembly includes a stepped shaft rotatably inserted in an L-shaped mounting frame, and mounting frames are fixedly mounted on the end faces of the two groups of stepped shafts, and a net bag is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the cold water component includes a copper tube plugged into the box body, and the copper tube has a winding structure inside the box body. An air cooler is fixedly installed on the box body, and the air cooler is connected to the end of the copper tube through a pipeline. The other end of the copper tube is fixedly plugged with an end cover, and a dust net is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the end cover.

[0013] Furthermore, the water circulation component includes several groups of first pipes inserted, and the ends of the first pipes are fixedly connected to the second pipes, the third pipes are connected between the second pipes, and the third pipes are provided with a water pump, the surface of the first pipes is provided with a rubber sealing ring, and the rubber sealing ring and the surface of the box are arranged in a close fit.

[0015] Furthermore, when the electric push rod drives the net cage assembly into the interior of the box, the net cage assembly is located inside the box to immerse the rice dumplings in the net cage assembly in the cold water in the box.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0017] The electric push rod drives the net cage assembly into the soaking box assembly, and soaks the cooked rice dumplings in cold water. At the same time, the cold water assembly and the water circulation assembly are used together to further reduce the temperature of the water in the soaking box and promote the flow of water, thereby accelerating the cooling process of the rice dumplings.
