Description

Technical Field:

[0001] This application is for an apparatus for making salted vegetables (an apparatus mainly for making salted vegetables at home), and this application relates to the technical field of daily necessities. Background Art:

[0002] Sichuan pickled vegetables are divided into three types: pickled Chinese cabbage, pickled vegetables, and salted vegetables. Pickled Chinese cabbage: refers to pickled vegetables fermented by the moisture of the vegetables themselves under airtight conditions. Pickled vegetables: refers to pickled vegetables pickled in pickling water [“pickling water” is a liquid containing cold boiled water (purified water), an appropriate amount of salt, and an appropriate amount of spices]. Salted vegetables: refers to pickled vegetables made by drying the vegetables to remove some moisture and then adding (mixing in) an appropriate amount of salt. Salted vegetables are commonly known as dry pickled vegetables, so a pug jar is used to make salted vegetables. When making salted vegetables, first wash and dry the pug jar, then put the vegetables that have been dried to remove some moisture and have had salt added (for the sake of making the patent application documents of this application concise and to the point, the “salted vegetables” in the patent application documents of this application refer to “vegetables that have been dried to remove some moisture and have had salt added”) in the pug jar, then use rice straw stalks and bamboo strips to seal the salted vegetables in the pug jar, and then turn the pug jar upside down and plunge it into a bottom bowl filled with water. After completing the above operations, the making of salted vegetables is completed. The combination formed by the pug jar, the water in the bottom bowl, and the bottom bowl when making salted vegetables can ensure that the salted vegetables in the pug jar are isolated from the air outside the combination formed by the pug jar, the water in the bottom bowl, and the bottom bowl. When making salted vegetables, the salted vegetables in the pug jar need to be isolated from the air outside the combination formed by the pug jar, the water in the bottom bowl, and the bottom bowl to meet the conditions for making high-quality salted vegetables. During the pickling process, the salted vegetables will produce liquid. If the liquid produced during the pickling process of the salted vegetables is always mixed with the salted vegetables, high-quality salted vegetables cannot be made. Therefore, when making salted vegetables, rice straw stalks and bamboo strips are used to seal the salted vegetables in the pug jar, and then the pug jar is turned upside down and plunged into a bottom bowl filled with water. In this way, the liquid produced during the pickling process of the salted vegetables will penetrate through the rice straw stalks and bamboo strips and enter the bottom bowl, so that the liquid produced during the pickling process of the salted vegetables will not always be mixed with the salted vegetables. It is rather troublesome to use rice straw stalks and bamboo strips to seal the salted vegetables in the pug jar when making salted vegetables, and it is also rather troublesome to use rice straw stalks and bamboo strips to seal the remaining salted vegetables in the pug jar after taking out some salted vegetables. Summary of the Invention:

[0003] To solve the "troubles" mentioned in the "Background Art", the present application provides an apparatus for making salted vegetables. The apparatus of the present application (the "apparatus of the present application" in the patent application documents of the present application refers to the apparatus for making salted vegetables of the present application) is made by combining an inner container, an outer container, and a sealing member (specifically noted that the "inner container", "outer container", and "sealing member" can also be given other suitable names) in a suitable combination manner. Salt-containing vegetables can be placed in the inner container of the apparatus of the present application, and the salt-containing vegetables placed in the inner container can be taken out from the inner container. The inner container of the apparatus of the present application can be placed in the outer container of the apparatus of the present application, and the inner container placed in the outer container can be taken out from the outer container. The outer container of the apparatus of the present application does not leak water, and the salt-containing vegetables placed in the inner container of the apparatus of the present application are not likely to fall out of the inner container. When making salted vegetables using the apparatus of the present application, the inner container is placed in the outer container, and the combination formed by the sealing member and the outer container in a suitable combination manner after the salt-containing vegetables are placed in the inner container can ensure that the inner container containing an appropriate amount of salt-containing vegetables placed in the outer container is isolated from the air outside the combination formed by the sealing member and the outer container in a suitable combination manner. The liquid generated during the pickling process of the salt-containing vegetables placed in the inner container can effectively transfer (flow out) from the inner container. The combination formed by the sealing member and the outer container in a suitable combination manner can ensure that the inner container containing an appropriate amount of salt-containing vegetables placed in the outer container can be taken out from the outer container to pour out the liquid generated during the pickling process of the salt-containing vegetables in the outer container (when making salted vegetables using the apparatus of the present application, pour out the liquid generated during the pickling process of the salt-containing vegetables in the outer container in a timely manner, and the liquid generated during the pickling process of the salt-containing vegetables will not always be mixed with the salt-containing vegetables). When making salted vegetables using the apparatus of the present application, it is not necessary to use rice straw stalks or bamboo strips to seal the salt-containing vegetables located in the inner container (when making salted vegetables using the apparatus of the present application, it is not necessary to use rice straw stalks or bamboo strips to seal the salt-containing vegetables located in the inner container. After taking out some of the salted vegetables located in the inner container, it is naturally not necessary to use rice straw stalks or bamboo strips to seal the remaining salted vegetables located in the inner container). Detailed implementation manners:

[0004] When manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, terracotta is selected for the inner container of the present application; when manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, the inner container of the apparatus of the present application is formed by combining a bottom (4) capable of supporting the salted vegetables and a body (6) capable of surrounding the salted vegetables on the bottom. The body of the inner container of the apparatus of the present application is in a circular shape. The open end of the body of the inner container of the apparatus of the present application in a circular shape forms an opening (1) of the inner container of the apparatus of the present application through which the salted vegetables can be put into the inner container. The salted vegetables can be put into the inner container through the opening of the inner container and taken out from the opening of the inner container. When manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, glass is selected for the outer container of the present application (the glass has good light transmission performance. When making salted vegetables with the apparatus of the present application, if necessary, the apparatus of the present application can be covered with a suitable light-proof material). When manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, the outer container of the apparatus of the present application is formed by combining a bottom (3) capable of supporting the inner container and a body (7) capable of surrounding the inner container on the bottom. The body of the outer container of the apparatus of the present application is in a circular shape. The open end of the body of the outer container of the apparatus of the present application in a circular shape forms an opening (2) of the outer container of the apparatus of the present application through which the inner container can be put into the outer container. The inner container can be put into the outer container through the opening of the outer container and taken out from the opening of the outer container. (It should be specifically noted that "bottom", "body", and "opening" can also be named other suitable names). When manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, the present application ensures that the shape and structure of the inner container of the apparatus of the present application (the inner container has a suitable body (opening) and height) is conducive to the inner container placed in the outer container being taken out from the opening of the outer container more conveniently (when manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, it is normal and an inevitable specific implementation method to ensure that the shape and structure of the inner container of the apparatus of the present application is conducive to the inner container placed in the outer container being taken out from the opening of the outer container more conveniently). When manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, no holes are made on the bottom of the outer container of the apparatus of the present application, and no holes are made on the body of the outer container of the apparatus of the present application. The outer container of the present application does not leak water. When manufacturing the apparatus of the present application, some holes (5) are made on the bottom of the inner container of the apparatus of the present application. The liquid generated by the salted vegetables placed in the inner container during the pickling process can transfer out (flow out) of the inner container through the holes on the bottom of the inner container. It should be specifically noted that in some specific implementation manners, holes for lifting the inner container can be made on the body of the inner container of the apparatus of the present application;When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application ensures that the bottom of the inner container is thick enough, and after the inner container is placed in the outer container, the holes on the bottom of the inner container will not be blocked (sealed) by the bottom of the outer container. The liquid generated during the pickling process of the salted vegetables placed in the inner container can effectively transfer out (flow out) of the inner container. [If the bottom of the inner container is relatively thin, it will cause the height of the liquid generated during the pickling process of the salted vegetables in the outer container to be easily higher than the height of the holes on the bottom of the inner container placed in the outer container. In this case, the liquid generated during the pickling process of the salted vegetables placed in the inner container cannot effectively transfer out (flow out) of the inner container]; When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application ensures that the salted vegetables placed in the inner container of this application appliance are not easily dropped out of the inner container through the holes on the bottom of the inner container; When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application makes a thread (8) at a suitable position on the body of the outer container; When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application configures a plastic sealing piece that matches the body of the outer container; When manufacturing the appliance of this application, the sealing piece is made into a suitable lid shape; When manufacturing the appliance of this application, a thread (9) is made at a suitable position in the sealing piece (lid); When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application configures a rubber pad (10) that matches the sealing piece (lid); When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application ensures that after the rubber pad is placed in the sealing piece, it can be screwed tightly on the body of the outer container; When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application ensures that after the sealing piece with the rubber pad placed in it is screwed tightly on the body of the outer container, the inner container containing an appropriate amount of salted vegetables placed in the outer container is isolated from the air outside the combination formed by the sealing piece, the rubber pad, and the outer container; When manufacturing the appliance of this application, this application ensures that the sealing piece with the rubber pad screwed tightly on the body of the outer container can be unscrewed from the body of the outer container;When making salted vegetables with the appliance of the present application, the inner container is placed inside the outer container. After the salted vegetables are placed in the inner container, the sealing member and the outer container are combined in a suitable way (the combination way of "putting a rubber pad in the sealing member, the sealing member with the rubber pad can be screwed tightly on the body of the outer container and the sealing member with the rubber pad screwed tightly on the body of the outer container can be unscrewed from the body of the outer container") to form an assembly that can ensure the air isolation between the inner container containing an appropriate amount of salted vegetables placed in the outer container and the outside of the assembly formed by the combination of the sealing member and the outer container in a suitable way (the combination way of "putting a rubber pad in the sealing member, the sealing member with the rubber pad can be screwed tightly on the body of the outer container and the sealing member with the rubber pad screwed tightly on the body of the outer container can be unscrewed from the body of the outer container"). The liquid generated during the pickling process of the salted vegetables placed in the inner container can effectively transfer (flow out) from the holes on the bottom of the inner container. The assembly formed by the combination of the sealing member and the outer container in a suitable way (the combination way of "putting a rubber pad in the sealing member, the sealing member with the rubber pad can be screwed tightly on the body of the outer container and the sealing member with the rubber pad screwed tightly on the body of the outer container can be unscrewed from the body of the outer container") can ensure that the inner container containing an appropriate amount of salted vegetables placed in the outer container can be taken out of the outer container to pour out the liquid generated during the pickling process of the salted vegetables in the outer container. When making salted vegetables with the appliance of the present application, straw stalks and bamboo strips do not need to be used to seal the salted vegetables located in the inner container; the foregoing specific implementation manner is relatively simple, and with the existing resource conditions and technical conditions, the appliance of the present application in the foregoing specific implementation manner can be made.
