Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of high-mobility food service vehicles, in particular to a reheating oven. BACKGROUND

[0002] The reheating oven is one of the core equipment of the high-mobility food service vehicle. The reheating oven usually has two use modes: vehicle-mounted use mode and backpack use mode. From the perspective of use, it is divided into main food processing and side food reheating. From the perspective of use area, it is divided into general type and high plateau type. In order to ensure the backpack use of the reheating oven, the design principle of the reheating oven is good environmental adaptability, good air tightness, etc.

[0003] CN220917217U mentions a reheating oven, but in actual engineering practice, the following problems exist:

[0004] 1. The reheating oven of the prior art is provided with a steam inlet and outlet, a pressure relief device, a pressure gauge, etc. When the internal steam pressure is too high, the pressure relief device is used for pressure relief.

[0005] However, since the high-mobility food service vehicle often works in harsh outdoor environments and is long-term outdoor work, some parts will be more eroded, resulting in a decrease in service life. For example, the pressure relief valve is generally opened and closed by a spring, and the spring is easily damaged by wind and rain, resulting in the undesired opening of the pressure relief valve when the internal pressure of the reheating oven does not meet the standard. The working environment and tasks of the high-mobility food service vehicle determine that the maintenance is difficult.

[0006] Using a two-stage pressure relief double-spring double-insurance method may solve the problem, but the effect is limited because both springs are exposed to harsh environments. If one performance decreases, the other performance also has a high probability of decreasing, which is not a foolproof solution.

[0007] 2. The pressure relief pipeline of the reheating oven of the prior art often includes a horizontal section and a vertical section. The pressure relief structure is usually arranged in the vertical section, but the horizontal section is easy to accumulate impurities (such as some food falling or entering the oven in harsh environments), which is not easy to clean after long-term accumulation.

[0008] 3. The pressure relief device of the prior art lacks adjustment function for the opening and closing of the pressure relief hole. Some means can be used to achieve closure, but the means is complex.

[0009] 4. The pressure relief device of the prior art lacks a means for quick maintenance and replacement.
