Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of melting kettles, and specifically relates to an animal oil melting kettle. Background Art

[0002] Currently, when processing animal fats and oils, a melting kettle is needed for melting treatment. When the existing melting kettle works, it heats the kettle body with the help of a heating mechanism, and the heat is transferred to the animal fats and oils inside the kettle body to achieve the melting of the animal fats and oils.

[0003] However, at lower temperatures, most animal fats and oils are in a solid state. When the solid animal fats and oils are placed inside the melting kettle, they usually have a large volume, resulting in uneven heating, making the entire melting time longer. Moreover, when the large pieces of solid animal fats and oils are heated, local overheating is likely to occur, thus affecting the product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the embodiments of the present invention is to provide an animal oil melting kettle.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] An animal oil melting kettle, comprising a kettle body, a cutting component, a driving component and a limiting component,

[0007] The cutting component is movably arranged inside the kettle body,

[0008] The driving component is installed on the top of the kettle body, and the limiting component is arranged on the driving component.

[0009] When the driving component runs forward, it can drive the cutting component to move radially along the kettle body to cut the large pieces of solid animal oil inside the kettle body.

[0010] When the driving component runs backward, the limiting component defines the cutting component and the driving component as a whole, so that the driving component can drive the cutting component to perform a circular motion inside the kettle body to stir the animal oil.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention: The driving component includes a motor, a rotating shaft, a turntable and an arc-shaped protrusion.

[0012] The motor is fixedly installed on the top of the kettle body. One end of the rotating shaft is connected to the output end of the motor, and the other end extends into the kettle body and is fixedly connected to the turntable. There are several groups of arc-shaped protrusions, and several arc-shaped protrusions are fixedly arranged at intervals in a ring on the circumferential side wall of the turntable.

[0013] The slitting assembly includes a multi - section telescopic rod, an annular plate, vertical slitting rods, and horizontal slitting rods.

[0014] The annular plate is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the kettle body. At the bottom of each rod body of the multi - section telescopic rod, a group of the vertical slitting rods are fixedly arranged. On the side walls of each group of the vertical slitting rods, a number of the horizontal slitting rods are fixedly arranged. One end of the multi - section telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the annular plate, and the other end extends towards the center of the kettle body and abuts against the circumferential side wall of the turntable. A first elastic member is arranged in each rod body of the multi - section telescopic rod.

[0015] As a further improvement of the present invention: A damping member is further arranged inside the kettle body.

[0016] When the motor drives the rotating shaft, the turntable, and a number of arc - shaped protrusions to rotate forward, the damping member is used to provide damping for the annular plate to overcome the frictional force applied by the turntable and the arc - shaped protrusions to the end of the multi - section telescopic rod, so that the turntable and the arc - shaped protrusions cannot drive the multi - section telescopic rod and the annular plate to rotate when rotating forward.

[0017] As a further improvement of the present invention: The damping member includes a support seat and a damping rod.

[0018] The support seat is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the kettle body. The support seat is located above the annular plate. The upper end of the damping rod is hinged to the bottom of the support seat, and the lower end extends obliquely to the upper surface of the annular plate.

[0019] As a further improvement of the present invention: An annular damping sheet is arranged on the upper surface of the annular plate.

[0020] As a further improvement of the present invention: An annular guide rail is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the kettle body. A ring groove is formed on the circular outer wall of the annular plate. The annular plate is in sliding fit with the annular guide rail through the ring groove.

[0021] A jack is formed on the circumferential side wall of the turntable. The jack is located between two adjacent groups of the arc - shaped protrusions.

[0022] The limiting assembly includes a second elastic member and a limiting rod.

[0023] One end of the limiting rod extends into the jack and is in movable fit with the jack, and the other end extends to the outside of the turntable and is provided with an inclined surface. The second elastic member is arranged inside the jack and is used to provide elastic support for the limiting rod.

[0024] As a further improvement of the present invention: several groups of multi - section telescopic rods corresponding to the slitting assembly are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the ring plate. At the bottom of each rod body corresponding to each group of multi - section telescopic rods, a slitting vertical rod is installed, and several slitting cross rods are installed on the side walls of each slitting vertical rod.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0026] In the embodiment of the present invention, when it is necessary to melt animal oil, the solid animal oil can be placed inside the kettle body, and then the heating mechanism on the kettle body is started. The heating mechanism is used to heat the kettle body, and the kettle body transfers the heat to the solid animal oil inside, thereby heating and melting the solid animal oil. At the same time, the driving assembly is started to make the driving assembly run forward. The driving assembly is used to drive the slitting assembly to move radially along the kettle body, thereby slitting the large - block solid animal oil into several small pieces, so that the animal oil can be heated better and the melting efficiency of the animal oil can be improved. After the slitting assembly finishes slitting the large - block solid animal oil, the driving assembly is driven to run in reverse. At this time, the limiting assembly limits the slitting assembly and the driving assembly as a whole, so that the driving assembly drives the slitting assembly to move along the inner circumference of the kettle body. At this time, the slitting assembly acts as a stirring mechanism to stir the animal oil, thereby further improving the melting efficiency of the animal oil. Compared with the prior art, when melting animal oil, the large - block solid animal oil can be cut into several small pieces, thereby increasing the melting speed of the animal oil, further improving the melting efficiency of the animal oil and improving the processing quality of the animal oil.

Detailed implementation manners

[0034] The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the specific implementation manners.

[0035] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, in which the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions from beginning to end. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this embodiment provides an animal oil melting kettle, including a kettle body 10, a slitting assembly 20, a driving assembly 30 and a limiting assembly 40. The slitting assembly 20 is movably arranged inside the kettle body 10. The driving assembly 30 is installed on the top of the kettle body 10. The limiting assembly 40 is arranged on the driving assembly 30. When the driving assembly 30 runs forward, it can drive the slitting assembly 20 to move radially along the kettle body 10 to slit the large - sized solid animal oil inside the kettle body 10. When the driving assembly 30 runs backward, the limiting assembly 40 defines the slitting assembly 20 and the driving assembly 30 as a whole, so that the driving assembly 30 can drive the slitting assembly 20 to perform a circular motion inside the kettle body 10 to stir the animal oil.

[0037] When it is necessary to melt animal oil, the solid animal oil can be placed inside the kettle body 10, and then the heating mechanism (not shown in the figure) on the kettle body 10 is started. The heating mechanism is used to heat the kettle body 10, and the kettle body transfers the heat to the solid animal oil inside, thereby heating and melting the solid animal oil. At the same time, the driving component 30 is started to make the driving component 30 run forward. The driving component 30 drives the cutting component 20 to move radially along the kettle body 10, thereby cutting the large piece of solid animal oil, so as to cut the large piece of solid animal oil into several small pieces, so that the animal oil can be heated better and the melting efficiency of the animal oil can be improved. After the cutting component 20 finishes cutting the large piece of solid animal oil, the driving component 30 is driven to run in reverse. At this time, the limiting component 40 defines the cutting component 20 and the driving component 30 as a whole, so that the driving component 30 drives the cutting component 20 to move along the inner circumference of the kettle body 10. At this time, the cutting component 20 acts as a stirring mechanism, thereby stirring the animal oil, and further improving the melting efficiency of the animal oil.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , in one embodiment, the driving component 30 includes a motor 301, a rotating shaft 302, a turntable 303 and an arc-shaped protrusion 304. The motor 301 is fixedly installed on the top of the kettle body 10. One end of the rotating shaft 302 is connected to the output end of the motor 301, and the other end extends into the kettle body 10 and is fixedly connected to the turntable 303. There are several groups of the arc-shaped protrusions 304, and several of the arc-shaped protrusions 304 are fixedly arranged at intervals in a ring on the circumferential side wall of the turntable 303. The cutting component 20 includes a multi-section telescopic rod 201, a ring plate 202, a cutting vertical rod 203 and a cutting cross rod 204. The ring plate 202 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the kettle body 10. A group of the cutting vertical rods 203 are fixedly arranged at the bottom of each rod body of the multi-section telescopic rod 201. Several of the cutting cross rods 204 are fixedly arranged on the side wall of each group of the cutting vertical rods 203. One end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ring plate 202, and the other end extends towards the center of the kettle body 10 and abuts against the circumferential side wall of the turntable 303. A first elastic member 207 is arranged in each rod body of the multi-section telescopic rod 201.

[0039] After the solid animal oil is placed inside the kettle body 10, start the motor 301. Use the motor 301 to drive the rotating shaft 302 to rotate forward, and then drive the turntable 303 and several arc-shaped protrusions 304 to rotate forward. When the turntable 303 rotates forward, its circumferential side wall can slide relative to the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201. When the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 acts on a certain group of arc-shaped protrusions 304, this group of arc-shaped protrusions 304 can push the multi-section telescopic rod 201, causing the multi-section telescopic rod 201 to retract, and then driving several cutting vertical rods 203 to move towards the inner wall of the kettle body 10 along the diameter direction of the kettle body 10, and then driving several cutting cross rods 204 to move synchronously. During this process, the first elastic member 207 in each rod body of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 is compressed under force. When the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 passes over the middle position of this group of arc-shaped protrusions 304, the first elastic member 207 can push each rod body of the multi-section telescopic rod 201, causing the multi-section telescopic rod 201 to extend, and then driving several cutting vertical rods 203 and several cutting cross rods 204 to move towards the center position of the kettle body 10 along the diameter direction of the kettle body 10. When the above-mentioned several cutting vertical rods 203 and several cutting cross rods 204 move radially along the kettle body 10, they can act on the large piece of solid animal oil, and then cut the large piece of solid animal oil into several small pieces, so that the animal oil can be quickly heated and melted during the melting process, thereby improving the melting efficiency of the animal oil.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 2 , in one embodiment, a damping member 50 is further provided inside the kettle body 10. When the motor 301 drives the rotating shaft 302, the turntable 303 and several arc-shaped protrusions 304 to rotate forward, the damping member 50 is used to provide damping for the ring plate 202 to overcome the frictional force exerted on the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 by the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusions 304, so that the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusions 304 cannot drive the multi-section telescopic rod 201 and the ring plate 202 to rotate when rotating forward, and then the multi-section telescopic rod 201 can smoothly expand and contract, and then smoothly cut the large piece of solid animal oil.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 5 , in one embodiment, the damping member 50 includes a support seat 501 and a damping rod 502. The support seat 501 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the kettle body 10. The support seat 501 is located above the ring plate 202. The upper end of the damping rod 502 is hinged to the bottom of the support seat 501, and the lower end extends obliquely to the upper surface of the ring plate 202.

[0042] When the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304 rotate forward, through the supporting effect of the lower end of the damping rod 502 on the ring plate 202, a damping effect can be applied to the ring plate 202. This damping effect can overcome the frictional force exerted by the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304 on the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201, so that when the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304 act on the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201, the turntable 202 cannot be driven to rotate by the multi-section telescopic rod 201, thereby ensuring that the multi-section telescopic rod 201 can smoothly extend and retract.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 5 , in one embodiment, an annular damping sheet 206 is provided on the upper surface of the ring plate 202. Through the arrangement of the annular damping sheet 206, the frictional force between the ring plate 202 and the damping rod 502 can be increased, thereby improving the damping effect of the damping rod 502 on the ring plate 202.

[0044] In one embodiment, the annular damping sheet 206 can be a rubber sheet or a plastic sheet, and no limitation is made here.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 , in one embodiment, an annular guide rail 101 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the kettle body 10. A ring groove 205 is formed on the circular outer wall of the ring plate 202. The ring plate 202 is slidably engaged with the annular guide rail 101 through the ring groove 205. A jack 305 is formed on the circumferential side wall of the turntable 303. The jack 305 is located between two adjacent groups of the arc-shaped protrusions 304. The limiting assembly 40 includes a second elastic member 401 and a limiting rod 402. One end of the limiting rod 402 extends into the jack 305 and is movably engaged with the jack 305, and the other end extends to the outside of the turntable 303 and is provided with an inclined surface 403. The second elastic member 401 is disposed inside the jack 305 and is used to provide elastic support for the limiting rod 402.

[0046] When the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304 rotate forward, the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 slides along the outer walls of the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304. When the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 slides to the outer wall of the turntable 303, it can act on the inclined surface 403, thereby pushing the limiting rod 402 to move the limiting rod 402 into the jack 305, compressing the second elastic member 401 until the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 passes over the limiting rod 402. The second elastic member 401 pushes the limiting rod 402 to move the limiting rod 402 out of the jack 305. At this time, the limiting rod 402 does not restrict the sliding of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 along the outer walls of the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304; after the large solid animal oil is cut, the motor 301 drives the rotating shaft 302 to rotate in the reverse direction, thereby driving the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304 to rotate in the reverse direction. When the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304 rotate in the reverse direction, the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 slides reversely along the outer walls of the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304. When the end of the multi-section telescopic rod 201 slides reversely to the outer wall of the turntable 303, it can act on the side wall of the limiting rod 402. At this time, the limiting rod 402 can restrict the subsequent sliding of the multi-section telescopic rod 201, so that the turntable 303 can push the multi-section telescopic rod 201 by means of the limiting rod 402 during the subsequent reverse rotation process, thereby driving the ring plate 202 to slide along the annular guide rail 101, thereby driving a plurality of cutting vertical rods 203 and a plurality of cutting horizontal rods 204 to perform circular motion inside the kettle body 10, thereby acting as a stirring rod to stir the animal oil, making the animal oil evenly heated, and improving the melting effect and melting efficiency of the animal oil.

[0047] In one embodiment, the first elastic member 207 and the second elastic member 401 can be springs or metal elastic sheets, and there is no limitation here.

[0048] In one embodiment, the heating mechanism can be an electric heating plate or other mechanisms for heating the kettle body 10, and there is no limitation here.

[0049] In one embodiment, a plurality of groups of multi-section telescopic rods 201 corresponding to the cutting assembly 20 can be arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the ring plate 202. A cutting vertical rod 203 is installed at the bottom of each rod body corresponding to each group of multi-section telescopic rods 201, and a plurality of cutting horizontal rods 204 are installed on the side walls of the cutting vertical rods 203, so that when the turntable 303 and the arc-shaped protrusion 304 rotate forward, a plurality of multi-section telescopic rods 201 can be driven to move radially along the kettle body 10 at different positions, thereby cutting the large solid animal oil at different positions inside the kettle body 10, and further improving the melting efficiency of the animal oil.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present invention, when it is necessary to melt animal oil, the solid animal oil can be placed inside the kettle body 10, and then the heating mechanism (not shown in the figure) on the kettle body 10 is started. The kettle body is heated by the heating mechanism, and the kettle body transfers heat to the solid animal oil inside, thereby heating and melting the solid animal oil. At the same time, the driving component 30 is started to make the driving component 30 run forward. The driving component 30 drives the cutting component 20 to move radially along the kettle body 10, thereby cutting the large piece of solid animal oil, so as to cut the large piece of solid animal oil into several small pieces, so that the animal oil is better heated and the melting efficiency of the animal oil is improved. After the cutting component 20 finishes cutting the large piece of solid animal oil, the driving component 30 is driven to run in the reverse direction. At this time, the limiting component 40 defines the cutting component 20 and the driving component 30 as a whole, so that the driving component 30 drives the cutting component 20 to move along the inner circumference of the kettle body 10. At this time, the cutting component 20 acts as a stirring mechanism, thereby stirring the animal oil, and further improving the melting efficiency of the animal oil. Compared with the prior art, when melting animal oil, the large piece of solid animal oil can be cut into several small pieces, thereby increasing the melting speed of the animal oil, and further improving the melting efficiency of the animal oil and the processing quality of the animal oil.

[0051] The above has described the preferred embodiments of the present invention in detail. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
