Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of food production, and in particular to a device for discharging floating foam and recovering aroma in a stewing pot. Background Art

[0002] Stewed foods are deeply loved by consumers because of their unique flavors and tastes. However, during traditional stewing processes, the generation of floating foam and the loss of aroma are two major problems. The floating foam not only affects the appearance and taste of the food, but may also carry impurities, reducing the food quality. The loss of aroma directly results in insufficient flavor of the stewed food. To solve these problems, some improvement solutions have been proposed in the prior art, such as using a filter screen to separate the floating foam or recovering the aroma through a condenser. However, these solutions often have problems such as low separation efficiency, complex operation, or poor equipment stability. In addition, the sealing performance and automation degree of traditional stewing equipment are relatively low, making it difficult to meet the requirements of industrial production. During high-pressure stewing, loose equipment sealing may lead to steam leakage, which not only wastes energy but also poses a safety hazard.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Example 1

[0029] A device for discharging froth from a braising pot and recovering aroma, such as Figures 1 - 10 As shown, it includes a stewing pot 1, a mounting seat 2 is arranged on the right side of the stewing pot 1, a first hydraulic cylinder 3 is rotatably arranged on the mounting seat 2, a rotating frame 4 is connected to the telescopic end of the first hydraulic cylinder 3, the rotating frame 4 is rotatably connected to the stewing pot 1, a stewing cover 5 is connected to the rotating frame 4, the stewing cover 5 is used to close the stewing pot 1, a foam discharge mechanism 6 is arranged on the left side of the stewing pot 1, the foam discharge mechanism 6 is used to separate and discharge the foam and airflow generated after stewing, and a locking mechanism 7 is arranged on the upper part of the stewing pot 1, the locking mechanism 7 is used to close and lock the stewing cover 5.

[0030] A mounting seat 2 is provided on the right side of the stew pot 1, and a first hydraulic cylinder 3 is rotatably installed on the mounting seat 2. The telescopic end of the first hydraulic cylinder 3 is connected to a rotating frame 4, and the rotating frame 4 is rotatably connected to the stew pot 1. When it is necessary to open the stew cover 5, the first hydraulic cylinder 3 contracts, driving the rotating frame 4 to rotate upward, thereby opening the stew cover 5 from the stew pot 1; when it is necessary to close the stew cover 5, the first hydraulic cylinder 3 extends, pushing the rotating frame 4 to rotate downward, so that the stew cover 5 covers the stew pot 1 to achieve closure. There is a locking mechanism 7 for fixing and locking the stewing cover 5 after it is closed. The locking mechanism 7 tightly connects the stewing cover 5 to the stewing pot 1 by mechanical or hydraulic means to ensure that the pressure in the pot is stable during the stewing process to prevent steam and aroma leakage. A foam discharge mechanism 6 is arranged on the left side of the stewing pot 1 for separating and discharging floating foam and airflow generated during the stewing process. When foam is generated during the stewing process, the foam discharge mechanism 6 separates the foam from the steam through the airflow separation technology, and the foam is discharged out of the pot, while the steam containing the aroma is recovered.

[0031] The foam discharging mechanism 6 includes a mounting frame 61. The mounting frame 61 is connected to the upper left side of the stewing pot 1. A foam discharging tank 62 is mounted on the mounting frame 61. The bottom of the foam discharging tank 62 is of a funnel structure, which is used to communicate with the recycling device. A cover plate 63 is movably arranged on the top of the foam discharging tank 62. A pressure sensor 64 is mounted on the cover plate 63. A pipe is connected to the left side of the foam discharging tank 62, which is used to guide the aroma to discharge. The bottom of the pipe is connected to a condenser 65.

[0032] It should be noted that when foam is generated during the stewing process, the foam enters the foam discharging tank 62 together with the steam. Since the density of the foam is relatively low, it will gather at the upper part of the foam discharging tank 62, while the heavier liquid components flow back to the recycling device through the funnel structure at the bottom. When the pressure sensor 64 on the cover plate 63 detects an increase in the pressure inside the tank, it will automatically adjust the opening and closing degree of the cover plate 63 to ensure that the foam is discharged smoothly. The steam enters the condenser 65 through the pipe. The condenser 65 condenses the aroma components in the steam into liquid through cooling, thereby realizing the recovery of the aroma. The recovered aroma liquid can be stored or re-injected into the stewing pot 1 to enhance the flavor of the stewed food.

[0033] The locking mechanism 7 includes a mounting ring 71. The mounting ring 71 is connected to the front and rear sides of the upper part of the stewing pot 1. A second hydraulic cylinder 72 is rotatably connected to the mounting ring 71. A locking ring 73 is rotatably connected between the telescopic ends of the second hydraulic cylinder 72. The locking ring 73 is rotatably connected to the stewing pot 1. A bayonet structure is arranged on the locking ring 73. Two fixing rods 74 are arranged on the stewing cover 5, and the fixing rods 74 can be engaged with the locking ring 73.

[0034] It should be noted that the mounting ring 71 is connected to the front and rear sides of the upper part of the stewing pot 1. The second hydraulic cylinder 72 is rotatably connected to the mounting ring 71. A locking ring 73 is rotatably connected between the telescopic ends of the second hydraulic cylinder 72. The locking ring 73 is rotatably connected to the stewing pot 1. A bayonet structure is arranged on the locking ring 73. Two fixing rods 74 are arranged on the stewing cover 5, and the fixing rods 74 can cooperate with the bayonet structure on the locking ring 73 to realize the locking function. After the stewing cover 5 is closed, the second hydraulic cylinder 72 starts to work, pushing the locking ring 73 to rotate. The bayonet structure on the locking ring 73 is aligned with and engaged with the fixing rods 74 on the stewing cover 5, thereby firmly fixing the stewing cover 5 on the stewing pot 1. The thrust of the second hydraulic cylinder 72 ensures a tight connection between the locking ring 73 and the fixing rods 74, preventing the stewing cover 5 from loosening or leaking due to the increase in internal pressure during the stewing process. When it is necessary to open the stewing cover 5, the second hydraulic cylinder 72 contracts, pulling the locking ring 73 to rotate, so that the bayonet structure on the locking ring 73 disengages from the fixing rods 74. At this time, the stewing cover 5 is no longer restricted by the locking ring 73 and can be opened upward by the action of the first hydraulic cylinder 3 and the rotating frame 4. Embodiment 2

[0035] On the basis of Example 1, an anti-overflow mechanism 8 is also included, and the anti-overflow mechanism 8 includes a first drive motor 81. The first drive motor 81 is arranged on the top of the cover plate 63, and the output shaft of the first drive motor 81 is connected to an inclined guide plate 83, and the inclined guide plate 83 is provided with a plurality of air holes. A mounting plate 82 is arranged at the bottom of the foam discharge tank 62, and the output shaft of the first drive motor 81 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 82.

[0036] It should be noted that when a large amount of foam is generated during the braising process, the foam enters the foam discharge tank 62 along with the steam. The first drive motor 81 is started to drive the inclined guide plate 83 to rotate. The rotating movement of the inclined guide plate 83 guides the foam to the side wall of the foam discharge tank 62 to prevent the foam from directly rising and blocking the aroma outlet at the top of the foam discharge tank 62. At the same time, the air holes on the inclined guide plate 83 allow steam to pass through, ensuring that the aroma can smoothly enter the pipeline for recovery.

[0037] The utility model also includes a rotating mechanism 9, which includes a second driving motor 91. Three second driving motors 91 are arranged on the upper part of the stew pot 1. A rotating member 92 is connected to the output shaft of the second driving motor 91. A limiting ring 94 is arranged on the upper part of the stew pot 1. A toggle frame 93 is rotatably arranged on the limiting ring 94. The toggle frame 93 is fitted with the rotating member 92. The toggle frame 93 is used to scrape and concentrate the floating foam in the stew pot 1.

[0038] It should be noted that when foam is generated during the braising process, the second drive motor 91 is started, driving the rotating member 92 to rotate. The rotational movement of the rotating member 92 is transmitted to the toggle frame 93 through the bonding action, so that the toggle frame 93 rotates on the limit ring 94. The rotational movement of the toggle frame 93 scrapes the foam in the braising pot 1 and concentrates it to one side, which is convenient for the foam discharge mechanism 6 to separate and discharge it.

[0039] The braising pot 1 also includes a temperature control mechanism 10 , which includes a heat preservation frame 101 . The heat preservation frame 101 is arranged in the middle of the braising pot 1 , and a temperature control tube 102 is installed in the heat preservation frame 101 .

[0040] The mounting mechanism 11 is also included, and the mounting mechanism 11 includes a fixing frame 111. The fixing frame 111 is arranged on the left side of the foam discharge tank 62. A fastening plate 112 is slidably connected to the left side of the fixing frame 111. A fastening screw is installed on the fastening plate 112. The height position of the fixing frame 111 is adjusted by adjusting the fastening screw. A second mounting cylinder 114 is arranged on the left side of the fastening plate 112. Two connecting rods 115 are rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the second mounting cylinder 114. A first mounting cylinder 113 is rotatably connected between two adjacent connecting rods 115. The first mounting cylinder 113 and the second mounting cylinder 114 can be used for auxiliary pipeline installation in cooperation.

[0041] It should be understood that this embodiment is only used to illustrate the present invention and not to limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, it should be understood that after reading the content taught by the present invention, those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims of this application.
