Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of catering, and particularly relates to an automatic skewer roasting furnace and a skewer roasting method. Background Art

[0002] Skewer roasting is a type of food that many people like very much. In the roasting operation of skewer roasting, in addition to continuously turning the skewers over and over again to make them heated evenly, the most complex and troublesome thing is to quickly complete procedures such as brushing oil, brushing sauce, sprinkling salt, and sprinkling seasonings on the basis of mastering the roasting temperature of the skewers and continuously turning them over. This is the main factor determining the taste and flavor of the skewer roasted. Therefore, generally, an operator with practical experience is required to roast delicious skewers.

[0003] In order to solve these technical problems such as the tediousness, time-consuming, laborious, poor working environment, and environmental pollution of manual skewer roasting, an intelligent fully automatic skewer roasting machine came into being.

[0004] For example, a portable integrated automatic skewer roasting machine disclosed in Chinese patent document CN112401675A has a rotating grill part, an oil-brushing part, a rotating seasoning part, and a sauce-brushing part. The skewers rotate and move on the rotating grill, and there is a charcoal stove at the bottom of the rotating grill. The skewers are roasted by the charcoal stove. The oil-brushing part, the rotating seasoning part, and the sauce-brushing part are arranged above the rotating grill. After the skewers are driven by the rotating grill to turn to the upper part, the skewers pass through the oil-brushing part, the rotating seasoning part, and the sauce-brushing part, and are respectively brushed with oil, sprinkled with seasonings, and brushed with sauce.

[0005] However, in the above solution, since the charcoal stove is located at the bottom of the rotating grill, during the roasting process, it is inevitable that the skewers will drip oil and sprinkle residues into the charcoal stove, which is the main reason why traditional skewer roasting devices often burn and smoke during skewer roasting; moreover, since the oil-brushing part, the rotating seasoning part, and the sauce-brushing part are arranged above the rotating grill, the oil fumes generated during the roasting process of the skewers will cause oil stains on the oil-brushing part, the rotating seasoning part, and the sauce-brushing part. Also, since this position is above the high-temperature area, it will also make seasonings such as salt sticky and have poor fluidity or even melt, so it is not convenient to accurately control the amount of seasonings sprinkled. For example, when working at high temperature for a long time, the work of sprinkling seasonings cannot even be completed normally; in addition, due to the lack of adjustment and control functions, the amount of oil-brushing, sauce-brushing, and seasoning sprinkling is fixed each time, so it is difficult to meet the needs of consumers with different taste and flavor preferences.

[0006] Another example is an anti-pollution automatic skewer roasting machine disclosed in Chinese Patent Document CN116172416A, which includes symmetric main rotating shafts for driving the skewers to rotate around the main rotating shafts. Heaters are respectively arranged on both sides of the main rotating shafts for roasting the skewers. An oil brushing device and a feeding device are respectively arranged above the main rotating shafts. During use, when the skewers rotate to the upper part, they are oil-brushed by contacting the bristles. At the same time, the feeding device drives the guide plate to vibrate up and down through a vibrator, and the seasonings slowly fall and are evenly distributed on the skewers.

[0007] However, with the above solution, there are still problems that the oil fume generated during the roasting process of the skewers will cause oil pollution to parts such as oil brushing and seasoning sprinkling; in addition, since this position is also above the high-temperature area, it will also cause seasonings such as salt to adhere and the fluidity to become poor or even melt, so it is not convenient to accurately control the amount of seasonings sprinkled. For example, when working at high temperature for a long time, there will also be problems that the seasoning sprinkling work cannot be normally completed; in addition, since there is also no adjustment and control function, the amount of oil brushing, sauce brushing, and seasoning sprinkling is fixed each time, so it is also difficult to meet the needs of consumers' different taste and flavor preferences. Summary of the Invention

[0008] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art that the seasoning sprinkling area of the automatic skewer roasting machine is easily polluted, it is difficult to carry out seasoning sprinkling normally for a long time due to high temperature, and it is impossible to accurately control the amount of oil brushing, sauce brushing, and seasoning sprinkling each time, so as to provide an automatic skewer roasting furnace.

[0009] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides an automatic skewer roasting furnace, including:

[0010] A stove body, which has a barbecue area and a seasoning area arranged separately and side by side inside;

[0011] A skewer bracket, which is slidably arranged inside the stove body, and the skewer bracket is used to place skewers. The skewer bracket reciprocates between the barbecue area and the seasoning area by sliding horizontally inside the stove body;

[0012] A heating device, which is arranged above the barbecue area inside the stove body, and the heating device is used to heat and roast the skewers on the skewer bracket;

[0013] A seasoning device, which is arranged above the seasoning area inside the stove body, and the seasoning device is used to brush oil, brush sauce, sprinkle salt, and sprinkle seasonings on the skewers on the skewer bracket.

[0014] Beneficial effects: When the automatic skewer roasting furnace provided by the present invention is in use, skewers are placed on the skewer bracket. During the barbecue process, the skewers on the skewer bracket are first heated and barbecued in the barbecue area inside the stove body. After a certain period of time, the skewer bracket slides horizontally to leave the barbecue area and automatically enters the seasoning area step by step. In the seasoning area, oil, sauce, salt, and seasonings are automatically brushed and sprinkled. Then, it slides horizontally to leave the seasoning area and automatically returns to the barbecue area to continue heating and barbecuing. Since the seasoning area and the barbecue area are separated and arranged side by side, and the seasonings arranged in the seasoning area are far from the barbecue area, the oil fumes generated during the barbecue process in the barbecue area will not contaminate the seasonings in the seasoning area, and the seasoning device is not in a high-temperature environment either. As a result, the seasonings will not stick due to high temperature, their fluidity will not become poor, and they will not even melt. The amount of seasonings sprinkled is more convenient to accurately control, and it can also ensure that the seasoning work can be carried out normally for a long time. The heating device heats and barbecues the skewers above the skewer bracket, which can effectively avoid the problem that oil juice and debris drip onto the heating device during the roasting of skewers, causing combustion and smoking, thus avoiding potential fire safety hazards during the barbecue process.

[0051] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0052] Embodiment 1

[0053] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, a specific embodiment of the automatic skewer roasting furnace provided by this embodiment includes: a stove body 1, in which a barbecue area 2 and a seasoning area 3 are separately and juxtaposed; a skewer roasting bracket 4 is slidably arranged in the stove body 1, and the skewer roasting bracket 4 is used to place skewers, and the skewer roasting bracket 4 slides horizontally in the stove body 1 to reciprocate between the barbecue area 2 and the seasoning area 3.

[0054] Above the barbecue area 2 in the stove body 1, a heating device 5 is arranged, and the heating device 5 is used to heat and roast the skewers on the skewer roasting bracket 4. Above the seasoning area 3 in the stove body 1, a seasoning device 6 is arranged, and the seasoning device 6 is used to brush oil, brush sauce, sprinkle salt, and sprinkle seasonings on the skewers on the skewer roasting bracket 4.

[0055] For the automatic skewer roasting furnace provided by this embodiment, when in use, the skewers are placed on the skewer roasting bracket 4. During the barbecue process, the skewers are first heated and barbecued in the barbecue area 2 of the stove body 1 on the skewer roasting bracket 4, and the skewers rotate automatically during heating and barbecuing. After a certain period of time, the skewer roasting bracket 4 slides horizontally away from the barbecue area 2 and step by step automatically enters the seasoning area 3, where it is automatically brushed with oil, brushed with sauce, sprinkled with salt, and sprinkled with seasonings. After single-time seasoning, it slides horizontally away from the seasoning area 3 and automatically returns to enter the barbecue area 2 to continue heating and barbecuing; since the seasoning area 3 and the barbecue area 2 are separately and juxtaposed, the seasonings arranged in the seasoning area 3 are far away from the barbecue area 2, and the oil fume generated during the barbecue process in the barbecue area 2 will not pollute the seasonings in the seasoning area 3, and the seasoning device is not in a high-temperature environment either, so that the seasonings will not stick due to high temperature, the fluidity becomes poor or even melt, the amount of seasoning sprinkled is more convenient to accurately control, and the problem that salt and seasonings cannot be smoothly sprinkled due to the influence of high temperature can also be avoided.

[0056] As Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, in the automatic skewer grill provided in this embodiment, the stove body 1 is a closed stove, the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3 are both arranged inside the stove body 1, and the stove body 1 has a switch door 7 that communicates with the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3. Specifically, the switch door 7 can be mounted on the stove body 1 via a movable guide rail mechanism. When opened, the movable guide rail driving mechanism drives the switch door 7 to move horizontally outward from the stove body 1, and the sealed door 8 on the grilling area 2 is then linked to open the grilling area 2 within the stove body 1. The skewer holder 4 in the grilling area 2 is moved out of the stove body 1 in conjunction with the switch door 7 and the sealed door 8, so that skewers can be placed on or taken out of the moved skewer holder 4. When closed, the movable guide rail driving mechanism drives the switch door 7 to move horizontally into the stove body 1, and the sealed door 8 is then linked to close the grilling area 2 within the stove body 1, thereby allowing the skewers to be grilled in the closed stove. The fully enclosed grilling device 5 improves the overall thermal energy utilization rate of the heating device 5, reduces energy consumption, and significantly improves the operator's working environment, avoiding or reducing air pollution to the surrounding environment. The movable end of the movable guide rail drive mechanism is fixedly connected to the switch door 7 and the sealing door 8. The movable guide rail drive mechanism utilizes a screw transmission mechanism, the drive end of which is connected to the output end of the drive motor, and the drive motor is electrically connected to the control device. Furthermore, in some alternative embodiments, the switch door 7 can also be disposed on the stove body 1 in other openable manners, for example, being reversibly mounted on the stove body 1.

[0057] like Figure 2 As shown, in the automatic kebab grill provided in this embodiment, an openable sealed door 8 is provided between the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3 in the stove body 1. The sealed door 8 isolates the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3, thereby reducing the influence of the grilling area 2 on the seasoning area 3, protecting the seasoning in the seasoning area 3 from oil smoke pollution, and avoiding the influence of high-temperature heating on the normal fluidity of salt or seasoning and the influence on the operation of the seasoning device. Specifically, the sealed door 8 can be movably provided between the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3, and is driven to be opened or closed by the movable guide rail drive mechanism. In addition, in some alternative embodiments, the sealed door 8 can also be installed in the stove body 1 in other ways, for example, it can be installed between the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3 in a flipping manner, etc.

[0058] like Figure 2As shown, in the automatic skewer grilling furnace provided in this embodiment, a grilling monitoring component 20 is arranged in the grilling area 2 inside the furnace body 1. The grilling monitoring component 20 includes a camera device, a lighting device, and a temperature sensor. Through the setting of this grilling monitoring component, the video image information and temperature information of the skewer grilling process in the grilling area 2 can be monitored in real time, so as to facilitate the use of this monitoring information, combined with the grilling process of the skewers and the taste preference requirements of consumers for the skewers, to adjust the heating mode, fire power strength, and heating time of the heating device 5, thereby realizing the intelligent automatic control of the skewer grilling process.

[0059] As Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 As shown, in the automatic skewer grilling furnace provided in this embodiment, a flavoring monitoring component 21 is arranged in the flavoring area 3 inside the furnace body 1. The flavoring monitoring component 21 includes a camera device and a lighting device. Through the setting of this flavoring monitoring component, the flavoring operation in the flavoring area 3 can be monitored in real time, thereby avoiding the problem that problems occurring during the flavoring process cannot be discovered in time, and accurately controlling the flavoring timing, flavoring mode, flavoring type, and flavoring quantity of automatic oil brushing, sauce brushing, salt sprinkling, and seasoning powder sprinkling, thereby realizing the intelligent automatic control of the skewer flavoring process.

[0060] As Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in the automatic skewer grilling furnace provided in this embodiment, the heating device 5 is located above the skewer bracket 4. Through the above setting, it can be avoided that oil juice and debris drip onto the heating device 5 during skewer grilling, causing combustion and smoking, thereby effectively avoiding the open fire safety hazard during the grilling process; and it can also improve the heating efficiency of the heating device 5 and the grilling effect on the skewers. In addition, in some alternative embodiments, an external baking tray or iron plate grilling area can be added to the top of the furnace body 1 above the heating device 5, and the heating device 5 is used to heat and grill the upper grilling area. In this embodiment, a controllable opening and closing partition plate needs to be added above and below the heating device 5, so that the baking tray grilling heating area above the heating device 5 and the skewer heating area below can be controlled to work separately or simultaneously, thereby increasing the usage function of the automatic skewer grilling furnace and further increasing the thermal energy utilization rate of the heating device 5, which is beneficial to saving energy. In addition, in some alternative embodiments, a set of lower heating devices can be added to the bottom of the grilling area 2, so that when grilling larger foods, the upper heating device 5 and the lower heating device can be used for simultaneous heating, thereby improving the grilling speed and grilling effect when grilling larger foods.

[0061] As Figure 2 , Figure 4As shown in the figure, in the automatic skewer grilling furnace provided in this embodiment, the heating device 5 includes a number of I-shaped light wave heating tubes, and the length direction of the I-shaped light wave heating tubes is consistent with the length direction of the skewers and they are arranged in a one-to-one manner. Through this setting, the utilization rate of the heating device 5 can be improved, and a relatively small heating power can meet the skewer heating requirements. Further, in this embodiment, there are multiple I-shaped light wave heating tubes, and each I-shaped light wave heating tube is controlled separately. In this way, when the number of skewers is small, only the corresponding I-shaped light wave heating tubes need to be selected and turned on, which is beneficial to energy saving.

[0062] As Figure 3 shown in the figure, in the automatic skewer grilling furnace provided in this embodiment, a rotation driving device is provided on the skewer bracket 4, and the rotation driving device is used to drive the skewers on the skewer bracket 4 to rotate. Under the action of the rotation driving device, the skewers can rotate automatically during the grilling process, so that the skewers are not only grilled more evenly, at a faster grilling speed and with a better grilling effect in the grilling area 2, but also the seasonings can be spread more evenly and efficiently on the skewers through the automatic rotation of the skewers in the seasoning area 3.

[0063] As Figure 3 、 Figure 6 shown in the figure, the rotation driving device includes: a number of transmission wheels 9, and a number of the transmission wheels 9 are connected by a transmission chain. The center of the transmission wheel 9 has a socket 10 for inserting the skewer stick 19. During use, the skewer sticks 19 are inserted into the center sockets 10 of the transmission wheels 9 one by one, and the transmission wheels 9 directly drive the skewer sticks 19 to rotate. A number of the transmission wheels 9 are driven by the transmission chain to achieve synchronous rotation of multiple skewers, so as to ensure the consistency of the rotation grilling of all skewers and save the number of driving devices.

[0064] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown in the figure, it further includes: a baffle 11, which is arranged on the side far from the transmission wheel 9. After the skewer stick 19 is inserted into the socket 10 of the transmission wheel 9, the other end of the skewer stick 19 is abutted by the baffle 11. Specifically, the baffle 11 is installed on the side of the tip of the skewer stick 19 inside the stove body 1 and horizontally penetrates the outside of the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3, so as to ensure that the skewers can be stably and reliably held on the skewer bracket 4 in both the grilling area 2 and the seasoning area 3. In this embodiment, through the arrangement of the baffle 11, the other end of the skewer stick 19 is abutted, so as to ensure that the skewer stick 19 will not come out of the transmission wheel 9 during rotation, so as to ensure the safe and reliable rotation drive of the transmission wheel 9 for the skewer stick 19.

[0065] As Figure 7As shown, in the automatic kebab grill provided in this embodiment, the seasoning device 6 includes a combined working head 12, which is used to apply oil, sauce, salt, and seasoning. The combined working head 12 is mounted on a movable platform and driven by the movable platform to move the combined working head 12 horizontally. By integrating multiple functional devices such as applying oil, sauce, salt, and seasoning on the combined working head 12, the overall structure of the seasoning device is simplified, the volume, weight, and space occupied are reduced, and the efficiency of the horizontal motion transmission mechanism of the seasoning device is improved. Specifically, the movable platform is slidably installed in the stove body 1 through a screw transmission mechanism, the driving end of the screw transmission mechanism is connected to the output end of the driving motor, the driving motor is electrically connected to the control device, and the movable platform is connected to the screw through a threaded connection. The forward and reverse rotation of the screw drives the movable platform to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. Driven by the movable platform, the combined working head 12 moves back and forth along the length direction of the skewers 19, so that the skewers on the skewers 19 are automatically brushed with oil, sauce, salt, and seasonings.

[0066] like Figure 2 、 Figure 5 As shown, the combined working head 12 is provided with a lifting drive device 13, and a brush 14 for brushing oil and / or sauce is installed at the lifting end of the lifting drive device 13. Specifically, the lifting drive device 13 has two, respectively installed with a brush 14 for brushing oil and a brush 14 for brushing sauce. During operation, the two lifting drive devices 13 can work simultaneously or be controlled separately. The lifting and lowering control of the brush 14 is performed by the lifting drive device 13 to realize automatic brushing of oil and / or sauce, and the height to which the brush 14 descends can be controlled according to the different kebab ingredients, kebab crafts and consumer taste preferences, so as to accurately control the amount of oil and / or sauce applied to the brush 14.

[0067] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7As shown, the brush 14 is installed on a telescopic rod. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod is connected to a lifting drive motor through a disc eccentric wheel transmission mechanism. The lifting drive motor drives the disc eccentric wheel to rotate. The rotation of the disc eccentric wheel drives the telescopic rod to move up and down reciprocally, thereby driving the brush 14 to perform a lifting motion. The lifting drive motor is electrically connected to a control device. Further, a spring is installed on the telescopic rod. The spring has an elastic force that drives the telescopic rod to extend downward. Through the setting of the spring, it can cooperate with the disc eccentric wheel transmission mechanism so that the disc eccentric wheel transmission mechanism only applies an upward retracting driving force to the telescopic rod, and the spring applies a driving force to make the telescopic rod extend downward, thereby simplifying the connection structure between the disc eccentric wheel transmission mechanism and the telescopic rod. By controlling the rotation angle of the disc eccentric wheel by the lifting drive motor, the lifting height of the telescopic rod and the brush 14 can be accurately controlled.

[0068] As Figure 7 shown, the combined working head 12 is provided with a cam knocking device 15. The rotating cam of the cam knocking device 15 is in sliding contact with one end of a telescopic rod for knocking and vibrating. The other end of the telescopic rod is in knocking contact with the bottom of a seasoning cylinder 16 for sprinkling seasonings or a salt cylinder 17 for sprinkling salt. Specifically, there are also two cam knocking devices 15, which are respectively used for knocking and vibrating the seasoning cylinder 16 and the salt cylinder 17. When automatically sprinkling seasonings and / or salt on grilled skewers, the bottom of the seasoning cylinder 16 or the salt cylinder 17 is knocked and vibrated by the cam knocking device 15.

[0069] As Figure 7 shown, a spring is connected to the telescopic rod. The spring has an elastic force that drives the telescopic rod to move downward; the rotating cam drives the telescopic rod to move upward and compress the spring through a rotating rising section. When the rotating cam rotates to the falling section, the telescopic rod is driven to quickly descend by the spring force, realizing the knocking and vibrating of the bottom of the seasoning cylinder 16 and / or the salt cylinder 17 by the telescopic rod. By controlling the rotation speed of the rotating cam, the frequency of knocking and vibrating the seasoning cylinder 16 or the salt cylinder 17 can be controlled to accurately control the quantity of salt and / or seasonings sprinkled each time.

[0070] As Figure 7As shown, the combined working head 12 is provided with a flipping drive device 18. The drive end of the flipping drive device 18 is connected to the seasoning cylinder 16 or the salt cylinder 17. The discharging openings of the seasoning cylinder 16 and / or the salt cylinder 17 are driven to rotate downward or upward by the flipping drive device 18. By rotating the seasoning cylinder 16 and the salt cylinder 17, when it is not necessary to sprinkle seasonings, the discharging openings of the seasoning cylinder 16 and / or the salt cylinder 17 can be rotated upward, thus avoiding unnecessary spillage and waste problems. Specifically, the drive end of the flipping drive device 18 is perpendicularly connected to the cylinder walls of the seasoning cylinder 16 and the salt cylinder 17. Thus, when the flipping drive device 18 rotates, it can drive the seasoning cylinder 16 and / or the salt cylinder 17 to flip, so that their discharging openings face downward when sprinkling seasonings and face upward when not sprinkling seasonings.

[0079] The kebab roasting method provided in this embodiment can set the operation process of fully automatic kebab roasting according to the requirements of kebab taste and flavor. For the vast majority of diners who have no experience in roasting kebabs or are too lazy to do complex operations by themselves, they can choose an intelligent automatic control mode with simple operation according to the requirements of kebab taste and flavor and the final result of kebab roasting. In this operation mode, after first selecting the variety of kebab ingredients, one can choose the standard mode, or simple modes such as light, heavy flavor, tender, or well-done (multiple selections are available), and can also choose fine modes such as very tender, tender, well-done, salt-free, slightly light, slightly salty, salty, sauce-free, less sauce, more sauce, no seasonings (not spicy, no cumin), less seasonings (slightly spicy, less cumin), more seasonings (spicier, more cumin), etc. (multiple selections are available). After selecting the specific mode, press the start button to start fully automatic kebab roasting. This intelligent automatic control mode relies on the cooperation of the central processing module of the machine control circuit and the central control system of the external tablet computer through radio connection. According to the production processes, process requirements of various ingredients in the kebab recipe and the predetermined standardized procedures, combined with the real-time video image information and temperature information inside the oven and the real-time video image information inside the seasoning area, it completes the intelligent and fully automatic roasting and seasoning of kebabs.

[0080] The kebab roasting method provided in this embodiment can also be used in conjunction with a small desktop central control system and an audio-video control display and information entertainment terminal device (including a tablet computer and a smart speaker), so as to greatly improve the intelligent automatic control and digital management level without increasing the complexity and cost of the machine control circuit.
