Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of food refrigeration technology, and relates to a classification refrigeration device for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides, and particularly a refrigeration method for a classification refrigeration device for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides. Background Technology

[0002] Abalone umami peptides are core flavor substances in seafood processing. Their activity and umami retention are crucial to food quality, and cold storage is a key step in maintaining their characteristics.

[0003] Existing food refrigeration equipment is mostly a single-cavity structure, lacking targeted zoning design. It cannot classify and store abalone umami peptides in different states, which can easily lead to cross-temperature interference between zones, causing loss of umami peptide activity and flavor degradation. The abalone umami peptides used in the production of seafood products are generally in powder, liquid and paste form.

[0004] Meanwhile, in traditional cold storage processes, feeding and retrieving materials rely heavily on manual assistance, resulting in low automation. This not only increases operating costs but also makes materials susceptible to contamination or loss of cold energy due to human intervention.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a classification and refrigeration device and its refrigeration method for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a classification and refrigeration device and method for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides. The technical problem this invention aims to solve is: how to meet the classification and refrigeration needs of abalone umami peptides in different states by constructing an automated process of pre-cooling-feeding-classification and refrigeration-removal-thawing, thereby improving operational efficiency and reducing contamination caused by human intervention.

[0007] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] A categorized refrigeration device for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides includes an electric water bath, a conveyor, a handling mechanism, and a pre-cooling feeding mechanism, a refrigeration box mechanism, and a refrigeration unit arranged sequentially from right to left. The refrigeration box mechanism includes a refrigeration box body, which is a through-body structure. The refrigeration box body has two insulation plates inside, which divide the interior of the refrigeration box body into three refrigeration zones. Three support drawers are slidably arranged inside the refrigeration box body, and the support drawers are connected to the corresponding push mechanisms. Feeding mechanisms and three equidistantly distributed push mechanisms are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the refrigeration box body. The conveyor is located in front of the pre-cooling feeding mechanism and the refrigeration box mechanism, and the end of the pre-cooling feeding mechanism is located directly above the conveyor. Several equidistantly distributed placement boxes are arranged on the conveyor. The handling mechanism is located behind the refrigeration box mechanism, and the electric water bath is located inside and below the handling mechanism. The refrigeration unit is connected to the refrigeration box mechanism and the pre-cooling feeding mechanism through insulated pipes.

[0009] The working principle of this invention is as follows: Workers place powdered, liquid, and paste-like abalone flavor peptides to be refrigerated into the corresponding positions of the pre-cooling conveying mechanism. The pre-cooling conveying mechanism pre-cools and conveys the three types of abalone flavor peptides, cooling them down. Then, the three types of abalone flavor peptides are respectively conveyed to placement boxes on a conveyor. The conveyor transports the three placement boxes containing the abalone flavor peptides to the feeding mechanism. The feeding mechanism moves and sequentially transports the three placement boxes containing the abalone flavor peptides to the front of the refrigeration unit. The insulated gate at the corresponding position of the refrigeration box mechanism is opened, and then the feeding mechanism sequentially transports the three abalone umami peptides to be refrigerated into the corresponding refrigeration areas. Then the feeding mechanism returns to the initial position, and at the same time the insulated gate at the corresponding position of the refrigeration box mechanism is closed. The three abalone umami peptides enter the refrigeration storage state. The refrigeration unit continuously supplies cooling to the refrigeration box mechanism to maintain the temperature stability of each refrigeration area. The insulation plate and each sealing structure work together to ensure the insulation effect of the refrigeration area, avoid temperature interference between different areas, realize the long-term freshness storage of the three abalone umami peptides, and effectively preserve the freshness and quality.

[0010] When it is necessary to remove the refrigerated abalone umami peptides, the corresponding pusher mechanism is activated according to the discharge requirements. The pusher mechanism moves and drives the support drawer to slide out from the rear of the refrigeration box mechanism, so that the refrigerated placement box slides out with the support drawer and moves to the bottom of the conveying mechanism. The conveying mechanism moves and clamps the refrigerated placement box, placing the refrigerated placement box inside the electric water bath. The electric water bath performs water bath thawing treatment on the refrigerated placement box and the abalone umami peptides inside.

[0011] The refrigerator body has three insulated gates on the front side, arranged in a stepped manner from top to bottom. Each gate is connected to one of the three refrigeration zones. Each gate has a locking groove with a sealing gasket inside. A gate plate slides within each groove, and a limiting counterweight plate extends out of the front of the corresponding gate. The ends of the three limiting counterweight plates are flush. The bottom of the refrigerator body and the top of the two insulation plates each have two symmetrically arranged drawer rails. Each drawer is supported by a vertical sealing plate and a horizontal support plate. The front of the sealing plate has an annular rubber gasket. The support plates of the three drawers slide on the corresponding drawer rails. The refrigerator body is connected to the refrigeration unit via pipes.

[0012] With the above structure, the refrigerator body is connected to the refrigeration unit via pipes, which continuously supplies cooling. Three stepped insulated gates connect to the three internal refrigeration zones, providing a basis for categorized refrigeration. Each insulated gate has a locking groove containing a sealing gasket and a sliding gate plate. Each gate plate has a limiting counterweight plate at its end, extending beyond the front of the corresponding insulated gate, with all three ends flush. The limiting counterweight plate, under its own weight, drives the gate plate down the locking groove and tightly seals against the sealing gasket, achieving a front seal. Additionally, two... Each drawer features symmetrical drawer rails. The drawers are supported by vertical sealing plates and horizontal support plates. A ring-shaped rubber pad is installed on the front of the sealing plate. The support plates of the three drawers slide along the corresponding drawer rails, facilitating material entry and exit. When closed, the ring-shaped rubber pads adhere to the insulated gate, forming a rear seal. The feeding mechanism opens the corresponding insulated gate, feeding abalone umami peptides into the drawer and then resetting. The gate automatically closes under the gravity of the limit counterweight plate. Combined with the separation effect of the insulated plates, an insulated and sealed structure is formed, ensuring the stable retention of the cold energy delivered by the refrigeration unit and preventing temperature interference between different refrigeration zones.

[0013] The precooling conveying mechanism includes a support frame, a precooling box assembly, a paste conveying assembly, a liquid conveying assembly, and a powder conveying assembly. The paste conveying assembly includes an extruder and a screw conveyor. The extruder is located on the upper end of the support frame, and the discharge port of the screw conveyor is connected to the feed port of the extruder via a pipe. The liquid conveying assembly includes a precooling pipe, a water pump, and a stirring motor. The water pump is located on the rear side of the support frame. The precooling pipe and the stirring motor are both fixedly mounted on the upper end of the support frame. A stirring rod is rotatably mounted inside the precooling pipe, and the shaft of the stirring rod is drivenly connected to the output shaft of the stirring motor. The stirring rod is equipped with several stirring blades. The mixing blades are provided with several flow-disrupting holes. The inlet of the precooling pipe 1 is connected to the outlet of the water pump via a pipe. The powder conveying assembly includes a precooling pipe 2, a fan, and a dispersing motor. The fan is located at the rear of the support. The outlet of the fan is connected to the inlet of the precooling pipe 2 via a pipe. The precooling pipe 2 and the dispersing motor are both fixedly mounted on the upper end of the support. A dispersing rod is rotatably mounted inside the precooling pipe 2. The rotating shaft of the dispersing rod is connected to the output shaft of the dispersing motor. Several dispersing rods are provided on the dispersing rod. Guide dies are fixed at the ends of the precooling pipe 1, the precooling pipe 2, and the extruder.

[0014] Using the above structure, the pre-cooling conveying mechanism is based on a support frame and is equipped with a pre-cooling box assembly, a paste conveying assembly, a liquid conveying assembly, and a powder conveying assembly to achieve pre-cooling conveying of abalone umami peptides in three states. The paste conveying assembly consists of an extruder and a screw conveyor. The screw conveyor conveys the paste abalone umami peptides to its outlet, which is then fed into the inlet of the extruder through a pipe for pre-cooling conveying.

[0015] The liquid conveying assembly consists of a pre-cooling pipe, a water pump, and a stirring motor. The water pump is connected to an external liquid abalone umami peptide storage tank. The water pump pumps the liquid abalone umami peptide to the pre-cooling pipe. At the same time, the output shaft of the stirring motor drives the rotating shaft of the stirring rod to rotate. The stirring blades on the stirring rod agitate the conveyed liquid abalone umami peptide. The minor interfering flow holes on the stirring blades disturb the conveyed liquid abalone umami peptide, so that the conveyed liquid abalone umami peptide is in full contact with the inner wall of the pre-cooling pipe, improving the pre-cooling effect and making the liquid material cool and conveyed evenly.

[0016] The powder conveying assembly includes a second pre-cooling pipe, a fan, and a dispersing motor. The fan's inlet is connected to an external storage box for powdered abalone umami peptides. The fan sends air to the inlet of the second pre-cooling pipe through the outlet pipe, driving the powdered abalone umami peptides from the external storage box into the second pre-cooling pipe. The output shaft of the dispersing motor drives the dispersing rod shaft to rotate, preventing powder agglomeration and ensuring smooth conveying. The pre-cooling box assembly provides a pre-cooling environment for each component. Finally, the three states of abalone umami peptides are conveyed to the placement box through the first pre-cooling pipe, the second pre-cooling pipe, and the guide die fixed at the end of the extruder, respectively.

[0017] The precooling box assembly includes three hollow cooling square tubes. The internal dimensions of the cooling square tubes are larger than the outer diameters of precooling pipe 2, precooling pipe 1, and the extrusion pipe of the extruder. Each end of the cooling square tube is fixed with a fixed joint. The inner diameter of the fixed joint is equal to the outer diameter of precooling pipe 2, precooling pipe 1, and the extrusion pipe of the extruder. The fixed joints on the three cooling square tubes are respectively fixed on precooling pipe 2, precooling pipe 1, and the extrusion pipe of the extruder. Two vent pipes are provided between adjacent cooling square tubes. The vent pipes are connected to the cooling square tubes. The two vent pipes are located at the front and rear ends of the cooling square tubes, respectively. The upper end of each vent pipe is fixed with a cooling joint. The cooling joints on the front and rear sides of the precooling box assembly are connected to the liquid inlet and liquid outlet of the refrigeration unit through pipes.

[0018] Using the above structure, the precooling box assembly provides a precooling environment for each component. The internal size of the cooling square tube is larger than the outer diameter of precooling pipe 2, precooling pipe 1, and the extrusion pipe of the extruder, providing space for coolant delivery. The fixed joints at both ends are fixed to precooling pipe 2, precooling pipe 1, and the extrusion pipe of the extruder, respectively, to achieve a sealed fit. Adjacent cooling square tubes are interconnected through two vent pipes at the front and rear ends. The cooling joint at the upper end of the vent pipe allows the front and rear sides of the precooling box assembly to form a circulation with the liquid inlet and outlet of the refrigeration unit through the pipe. The cold source delivered by the refrigeration unit enters each cooling square tube through the cooling joint and vent pipe, wrapping precooling pipe 2, precooling pipe 1, and the extrusion pipe of the extruder for heat exchange and cooling. Finally, the abalone umami peptides in the three states are respectively delivered to the placement box on the conveyor through the guide die fixed at the end of precooling pipe 1, precooling pipe 2, and the extruder.

[0019] The feeding mechanism includes a horizontally arranged movable guide rail and a rack. Both the movable guide rail and the rack are fixed to the left side of the refrigerator body. A movable seat is slidably mounted on the movable guide rail. A drive motor is fixed on the movable seat. A drive gear is fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor. The drive gear meshes with the rack. A push door frame is fixed on the movable seat. A fixing plate is fixed to the rear end of the push door frame. The fixing plate is perpendicular to the push door frame and is fixedly connected to the sealing plate of the drawer.

[0020] With the above structure, when material needs to be retrieved, the corresponding pushing mechanism is activated. Both the moving guide rail 1 and the rack 1 are fixed on the left side of the refrigerator body. The moving seat 1 on the moving guide rail 1 moves under the drive of the drive motor 1. The drive gear 1 on the output shaft of the drive motor 1 meshes with the rack 1, driving the moving seat 1 to slide smoothly along the moving guide rail 1, thereby driving the supporting drawer to slide out from the rear of the refrigerator body along the drawer guide rail. When the moving seat 1 slides smoothly along the moving guide rail 1, it simultaneously drives the push door frame and its end fixing plate to move synchronously. The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the sealing plate of the supporting drawer, thereby driving the supporting drawer to slide out from the rear of the refrigerator body along the drawer guide rail through the push door frame and the fixing plate.

[0021] The feeding mechanism includes a vertically arranged sliding guide rail and a rack II. Both the sliding guide rail and the rack II are fixedly arranged on the right side of the refrigerator body. A sliding seat is slidably arranged on the sliding guide rail. A drive motor II is fixed on the sliding seat. A drive gear II is fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor II. The drive gear II meshes with the rack II. A motor seat is fixed on the sliding seat. A drive motor III is fixed inside the motor seat. A feeding plate is fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor III.

[0022] With the above structure, the sliding guide rail and rack two are both fixed on the right side of the refrigerator body. A sliding seat is slidably provided on the sliding guide rail. When the drive motor two fixed on the sliding seat is working, the drive gear two on the output shaft of the drive motor two meshes with the rack two, driving the sliding seat to rise and fall along the sliding guide rail, thereby adjusting the height of the motor seat and drive motor three on the sliding seat, so that the feeding plate fixed on the output shaft of drive motor three is aligned with the discharge end of the conveyor, receiving the placement box conveyed by the conveyor. Then, drive motor three drives the feeding plate to rotate, transferring the placement box to the front side of the refrigerator body.

[0023] Two symmetrically arranged limiting guide plates are fixed on the feeding plate. The limiting guide plate consists of a front-to-back limiting plate and a left-to-right baffle. The limiting guide plate has an L-shaped structure. The two limiting guide plates are located at the front and rear ends of the feeding plate, respectively. Two symmetrically arranged electric push rods are fixed on the upper right side of the feeding plate. Both electric push rods are vertically arranged. A push plate is fixed on the telescopic end of the electric push rod. An electric push rod is fixed on the left-to-right baffle of the rear limiting guide plate. A push plate is fixed on the telescopic end of the electric push rod. An electric push rod is fixed on the front-to-back limiting plate of the front limiting guide plate. A push plate is fixed on the telescopic end of the electric push rod. Both electric push rods are horizontally arranged, and the axis of electric push rod is perpendicular to the axis of electric push rod. When feeding, the feeding plate rotates to the front of the refrigerator body, and the push plate on the upper end of the electric push rod contacts the lower end face of the limiting counterweight plate at the corresponding position.

[0024] Using the above structure, two symmetrically arranged L-shaped limiting guide plates are fixed on the feeding plate. These limiting guide plates consist of front-to-back limiting plates and left-to-right baffles, located at the front and rear ends of the feeding plate respectively, limiting and guiding the placement box. Simultaneously, two electric push rods on the upper right side of the feeding plate are engaged. During feeding, the feeding plate rotates to the front of the refrigerator body, and the push plates on the upper ends of the electric push rods contact the lower surfaces of the corresponding limiting counterweight plates. The telescopic ends of the two electric push rods extend, driving the push plates on them to move upwards. The two push plates push the corresponding limiting counterweight plates towards... The upward movement causes the limiting counterweight plate to move the gate plate below it upward, opening the front insulated gate of the corresponding cold storage area. An electric push rod is fixed on the left and right baffles of the rear limiting guide plate, and an electric push rod is fixed on the front and rear limiting plates of the front limiting guide plate. The extension end of the electric push rod 1 drives the push plate 3 on it to move, pushing the placement box to the front insulated gate of the cold storage body. Then the extension end of the electric push rod 3 drives the push plate 4 to move, and the push plate 4 pushes the placement box into the corresponding cold storage area. Then the extension end of the electric push rod 2 retracts, closing the front insulated gate of the corresponding cold storage area, completing the feeding.

[0025] The conveying mechanism includes a frame. The upper end of the frame is provided with two symmetrically arranged movable guide rails (II) and two symmetrically arranged racks (III). Two movable slide blocks (II) are slidably mounted on each of the two movable guide rails. A drive motor (IV) is fixed to each of the movable slide blocks (II). A drive gear (III) is fixed to the output shaft of each drive motor (IV). Both drive gears (III) mesh with racks (III) on the same side. A connecting plate is provided between the movable slide blocks (II) at the same end of the two movable guide rails (II). Mounting plates (II) are fixed to the two connecting plates and are arranged in a left-right direction. Two horizontally arranged, symmetrically arranged electric lead screws are fixed to the upper end of the mounting plates (II). Each electric lead screw is fitted with a vertically arranged fixing frame. The top of each fixing frame is fixed to the lead screw slide block of the corresponding electric lead screw. An electric push rod (IV) is fixed inside each fixing frame. An electric gripper is fixed to the telescopic end of each electric push rod (IV).

[0026] With the above structure, when the drive motor four fixed on the movable slide two is working, the drive gear three on its output shaft meshes with the rack three on the same side, driving the movable slide two to slide along the movable guide rail two. The two movable slide two at the same end are connected by the connecting plate, thereby driving the mounting plate two to move horizontally. The screw slides of the two electric screw components drive the fixed frame on them to move horizontally, so that the electric gripper at the lower end of the fixed frame is aligned with the placement box. The telescopic end of the electric push rod four extends and drives the electric gripper to move, adjusting the height of the electric gripper. Then the electric gripper holds the placement box. Then, through the coordinated action of the electric screw component and the movable slide two, the placement box is transferred to the electric water bath and put down. The electric water bath performs water bath thawing treatment on the placement box and the abalone umami peptide inside.

[0027] The placement box is slidably provided with a cover plate, and the inner side of the placement box is provided with a limiting protrusion located below the end of the cover plate. The other end of the cover plate is fixed with a handle, and the upper end of the cover plate is provided with an injection port and an air vent. A filter screen is provided on the air vent.

[0028] The above structure utilizes a sliding cover for opening and closing. A limiting protrusion on the inner side of the box, located below the end of the cover, limits its sliding motion and prevents wobbling. A handle at the other end of the cover allows for manual operation. The filling port corresponds to the guide die head to receive material. The vent balances the air pressure inside the box to ensure smooth feeding, and the filter on the vent prevents external impurities from entering, while also preventing material leakage and ensuring material cleanliness.

[0029] The specific steps of the refrigeration method for this seafood processing categorized refrigeration device utilizing abalone umami peptides are as follows:

[0030] S1, Classified Pre-cooling Conveying: Based on the different states of abalone umami peptides, they are respectively sent into the corresponding paste conveying component, liquid conveying component, and powder conveying component. The refrigeration unit continuously circulates cooling to the pre-cooling box component through the guide die head, so that the conveying channel maintains a stable low temperature. The material is cooled down simultaneously during the conveying process and is finally sent into the placement box of the conveyor through the guide die head, realizing the simultaneous pre-cooling and feeding.

[0031] S2, Automated feeding into the box: The conveyor transfers the box containing the material to the feeding mechanism. The feeding mechanism adjusts the height of the feeding plate by lifting and lowering it to align it with the discharge end of the conveyor and receive the box. The feeding plate rotates to the front of the corresponding refrigeration area of ​​the refrigerated box body. Two electric push rods lift the limit counterweight plate and open the heat insulation gate. Then, electric push rods one and three work together to push the box into the corresponding support drawer. After the push rods reset, the gate automatically closes by gravity, completing the feeding and sealing process.

[0032] S3, Sealed and Insulated Refrigeration: The refrigeration unit continuously supplies cooling to the refrigeration unit. The independent refrigeration area is separated by the insulation plate. Combined with the multiple sealing structures consisting of the gate, sealing gasket, and ring rubber gasket supporting the drawer, it avoids temperature cross-interference and provides a suitable long-term refrigeration environment for abalone umami peptides, ensuring the preservation of umami and quality.

[0033] S4, On-demand material retrieval: The corresponding pushing mechanism is activated according to the demand. The pushing mechanism drives the supporting drawer to slide out from the rear of the refrigerator body, so that the placement box is moved to the bottom of the handling mechanism. The handling mechanism clamps and transports the placement box by driving the electric gripper.

[0034] S5, Thawing: After clamping is completed, the electric gripper will transfer the placement box to the electric water bath, where the electric water bath will thaw the material in a water bath to complete the thawing operation.

[0035] Compared with existing technologies, the classification and refrigeration device and its refrigeration method for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides have the following advantages:

[0036] 1. The pre-cooling conveying mechanism pre-cools the materials to be refrigerated. The conveyor and the feeding mechanism work together to complete the automatic feeding. Multiple independent refrigeration areas in the refrigerated box mechanism work together with the support drawers to achieve classified storage. The automatic material handling and thawing are achieved through the linkage of the pushing mechanism, the handling mechanism, and the electric water bath, which improves the processing efficiency and reduces manual intervention and quality fluctuations.

[0037] 2. The automatic opening, closing, and sealing are achieved through the stepped insulated gate of the refrigerator body, the gate with sealing gasket, the limit counterweight plate, and the ring rubber gasket on the support drawer. Combined with the continuous cooling supply of the refrigeration unit, each refrigerated area forms an independent and stable low-temperature environment, preventing temperature interference and cross-contamination of flavors, and realizing the long-term preservation of abalone umami peptides and flavor retention.

[0038] 3. The pre-cooling conveying mechanism conveys abalone umami peptides in three states through the paste conveying component, liquid conveying component, and powder conveying component respectively. The entire process of opening and closing the insulated gate, receiving and transferring is completed through the lifting of the sliding seat, the rotation of the feeding plate, and the coordinated action of electric push rod 2, electric push rod 1, and electric push rod 3 of the feeding mechanism. The handling mechanism achieves smooth transfer of materials from the box to the water bath thawing through the cooperation of multi-axis movement and electric grippers. Attached Figure Description

[0050] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0051] like Figures 1-9As shown, this classification and refrigeration device for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides includes an electric water bath 4, a conveyor 6, a handling mechanism 3, and, from right to left, a pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5, a refrigeration box mechanism 8, and a refrigeration unit 1. The refrigeration box mechanism 8 includes a refrigeration box body 9, which is a through-type box structure. The refrigeration box body 9 has two insulation panels 24 inside, dividing the interior of the refrigeration box body 9 into three refrigeration zones. Three support drawers 11 are slidably installed inside the refrigeration box body 9. The push mechanism 2 is connected to the corresponding position. The left and right sides of the refrigerated box body 9 are respectively provided with a feeding mechanism 7 and three equally spaced push mechanisms 2. The conveyor 6 is located in front of the pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5 and the refrigerated box mechanism 8, and the end of the pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5 is located directly above the conveyor 6. Several equally spaced placement boxes 59 are provided on the conveyor 6. The handling mechanism 3 is located behind the refrigerated box mechanism 8. The electric water bath 4 is located inside and below the handling mechanism 3. The refrigeration unit 1 is connected to the refrigerated box mechanism 8 and the pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5 through heat preservation pipes.

[0052] In this embodiment, the operator places the three types of abalone flavor peptides—powder, liquid, and paste—into the corresponding positions of the pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5. The pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5 pre-cools and conveys the three types of abalone flavor peptides, cooling them down. Then, the three types of abalone flavor peptides are respectively conveyed to the placement boxes 59 on the conveyor 6. The conveyor 6 transports the three placement boxes 59 containing the abalone flavor peptides to the feeding mechanism 7. The feeding mechanism 7 rotates and sequentially transports the three placement boxes 59 containing the abalone flavor peptides to the front of the refrigeration box mechanism 8. The feeding mechanism 7 then moves... The insulated gate 13 at the corresponding position of the refrigeration box mechanism 8 is opened, and then the feeding mechanism 7 sequentially conveys the three abalone flavor peptides to be refrigerated into the corresponding refrigeration areas. Then the feeding mechanism 7 returns to the initial position, and at the same time the insulated gate 13 at the corresponding position of the refrigeration box mechanism 8 is closed. The three abalone flavor peptides enter the refrigeration storage state. The refrigeration unit 1 continuously supplies cooling to the refrigeration box mechanism 8 to maintain the temperature stability of each refrigeration area. The insulation plate 24 and each sealing structure work together to ensure the insulation effect of the refrigeration area, avoid temperature interference between different areas, realize the long-term fresh storage of the three abalone flavor peptides, and effectively preserve the freshness and quality.

[0053] When it is necessary to remove the refrigerated abalone flavor peptides, the corresponding pusher mechanism 2 is activated according to the discharge requirements. The pusher mechanism 2 moves and drives the support drawer 11 to slide out from the rear of the refrigeration box mechanism 8, so that the refrigerated placement box 59 slides out with the support drawer 11 and moves to the bottom of the conveying mechanism 3. The conveying mechanism 3 moves and clamps the refrigerated placement box 59, placing the refrigerated placement box 59 inside the electric water bath box 4.

The feeding mechanism 7 opens the corresponding heat-insulating gate 13, sends the abalone umami peptide into the support drawer 11 and then resets. The gate 14 closes automatically under the gravity of the limit counterweight plate 15. Combined with the separation effect of the heat-insulating plate 24, a heat-insulating and sealing structure is formed to ensure that the cold energy delivered by the refrigeration unit 1 is stably retained and the temperature of each cold storage area does not interfere with each other.

The sliding guide rail 31 is slidably provided with a sliding seat 29. When the drive motor 28 fixed on the sliding seat 29 is working, the drive gear 2 on the output shaft of the drive motor 28 meshes with the rack 38, driving the sliding seat 29 to rise and fall along the sliding guide rail 31, thereby adjusting the height of the motor seat 37 and the drive motor 36 on the sliding seat 29, so that the feeding plate 32 fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor 36 is aligned with the discharge end of the conveyor 6, receiving the placement box 59 conveyed by the conveyor 6.

[0069] In this embodiment, two symmetrically arranged L-shaped limiting guide plates 35 are fixed on the feeding plate 32. The limiting guide plate 35 consists of a front-to-back limiting plate and a left-to-right baffle, located at the front and rear ends of the feeding plate 32 respectively, to limit and guide the placement box 59. At the same time, two electric push rods 33 on the upper right side of the feeding plate 32 are used. When feeding, the feeding plate 32 rotates to the front of the refrigerator body 9, and the push plate 2 at the upper end of the electric push rod 33 contacts the lower end surface of the corresponding limiting counterweight plate 15. The telescopic ends of the two electric push rods 33 extend, and the telescopic ends of the electric push rods 33 drive the push plate 2 on them to move upward. The two push plates 33 push the corresponding limiting counterweight plate 15 upward. The movement of the limiting counterweight plate 15 causes the gate plate 14 below it to move upward, opening the front insulated gate 13 of the corresponding cold storage area. An electric push rod 30 is fixed on the left and right side baffle of the rear limiting guide plate 35, and an electric push rod 34 is fixed on the front and rear limiting plate of the front limiting guide plate 35. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 30 drives the push plate 3 on it to move, pushing the placement box 59 to the insulated gate 13 on the front side of the cold storage box body 9. Then the telescopic end of the electric push rod 34 drives the push plate 4 to move, and the push plate 4 pushes the placement box 59 into the corresponding cold storage area. Then the telescopic end of the electric push rod 33 retracts, closing the front insulated gate 13 of the corresponding cold storage area, completing the feeding.

[0070] The conveying mechanism 3 includes a frame 39. The upper end of the frame 39 is provided with two symmetrically arranged movable guide rails 46 and two symmetrically arranged racks 45.

An electric gripper 44 is fixed on the telescopic end of the electric push rod 43.

[0071] In this embodiment, when the drive motor 48 fixed on the movable slide 47 is working, the drive gear 3 on its output shaft meshes with the rack 3 45 on the same side, driving the movable slide 47 to slide along the movable guide rail 46. The two movable slides 47 on the same end are connected by a connecting plate, thereby driving the mounting plate 40 to move horizontally. The screw slides of the two electric screw components 41 respectively drive the fixed frame 42 on them to move horizontally, so that the electric gripper 44 at the lower end of the fixed frame 42 is aligned with the placement box 59. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 43 extends and drives the electric gripper 44 to move, adjusting the height of the electric gripper 44. Then, the electric gripper 44 clamps the placement box 59. Then, through the coordinated action of the electric screw component and the movable slide 47, the placement box 59 is transferred to the electric water bath 4 and put down. The electric water bath 4 performs water bath thawing treatment on the placement box 59 and the abalone umami peptide inside.

[0072] A cover plate 62 is slidably provided on the placement box 59. A limiting protrusion 57 is provided on the inner side of the placement box 59. The limiting protrusion 57 is located below the end of the cover plate 62. A handle 61 is fixed to the other end of the cover plate 62. A filling port 58 and a vent 60 are provided on the upper end of the cover plate 62. A filter screen is provided on the vent 60.

[0073] In this embodiment, the opening and closing are achieved by the sliding cover plate 62. The limiting protrusion 57 on the inner side of the box is located below the end of the cover plate 62, which limits the sliding of the cover plate 62 and prevents shaking. The handle 61 at the other end of the cover plate 62 facilitates manual operation by the operator. The filling port 58 receives materials corresponding to the guide mold head 17. The vent 60 can balance the air pressure inside the box to ensure smooth feeding. The filter screen on the vent 60 can block external impurities from entering and prevent material leakage, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the material.

[0074] The working principle of this invention: The refrigerator body 9 has a through structure, and the interior is divided into three refrigeration areas by two insulation plates 24. It is equipped with three support drawers 11 to realize the material carrying and entry and exit. There are three stepped insulation gates 13 on the front side of the refrigeration area. The insulation gates 13 achieve sealing through the cooperation of the gate plate 14 and the sealing gasket. The gate plate 14 is controlled by the limit counterweight plate 15 to automatically close. The support drawers 11 slide along the drawer guide rail 12. When closed, the sealing effect is enhanced by the ring rubber gasket 10. The refrigeration unit 1 continuously supplies cooling to the refrigerator body 9 to maintain a low temperature environment.

[0075] During the pre-cooling and feeding stage, the staff, according to the state of the abalone umami peptide, feeds it into the corresponding paste conveying component, liquid conveying component, and powder conveying component respectively. The refrigeration unit 1 circulates cooling to the pre-cooling box component 19 through the cooling joint 18 to maintain a low temperature environment in the conveying pipe. The abalone umami peptide is gradually cooled during the conveying process in the paste conveying component, liquid conveying component, and powder conveying component. Finally, it is fed into the placement box 59 of the conveyor 6 through the guide mold head 17. The limiting protrusion 57 on the inner side of the box is located below the end of the cover plate 62 and plays a limiting role in the sliding of the cover plate 62 to prevent shaking. The handle 61 at the other end of the cover plate 62 is convenient for the staff to manually operate to open and close. The feeding port 58 receives the material corresponding to the guide mold head 17. The vent 60 can balance the air pressure in the box to ensure smooth feeding. The filter screen on the vent 60 can block the entry of external impurities and prevent the material from escaping, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the material.

[0076] The conveyor 6 transfers the placement box 59 containing abalone umami peptides to the feeding mechanism 7. The feeding mechanism 7 drives the sliding seat 29 to rise and fall through the drive motor 28, adjusts the height of the feeding plate 32 to align it with the discharge end of the conveyor 6, and after receiving the placement box 59, the drive motor 36 drives the feeding plate 32 to rotate, transferring the placement box 59 to the corresponding position on the front side of the refrigerator body 9, completing the positioning before feeding.

[0077] Two L-shaped limiting guide plates 35 on the feeding plate 32 limit and guide the placement box 59 to ensure the stability of the material posture. When feeding, the feeding plate 32 rotates to the front of the refrigerator body 9, so that the push plate of the electric push rod 2 33 is in contact with the limiting counterweight plate 15. The extension end of the electric push rod 2 33 drives the limiting counterweight plate 15 to rise, and simultaneously pulls up the gate 14 to open the heat insulation gate 13. Then the electric push rod 1 30 pushes the placement box 59 to the front of the heat insulation gate 13. The electric push rod 34 pushes the placement box 59 into the corresponding cold storage area. The electric push rod 2 33 retracts, and the limiting counterweight plate 15 drives the gate 14 to close by gravity. The gate 14, the sealing gasket, the annular rubber gasket 10 and the heat insulation plate 24 form a seal to ensure that the temperature of each cold storage area is stable and does not interfere with each other, so as to achieve long-term preservation of abalone umami peptides and retain the original quality.

[0078] When picking up materials, the corresponding pushing mechanism 2 is activated. The drive motor 22 drives the drive gear 1 and the rack 27 to mesh and transmit power, so that the moving seat 1 slides smoothly. Simultaneously, the push door frame 23 and the fixed plate 25 move. Through the linkage of the two, the supporting drawer 11 slides out from the rear of the refrigerator body 9 along the drawer guide rail 12. The placement box 59 moves with the supporting drawer 11 to the bottom of the handling mechanism 3 to be picked up.

[0079] The drive motor 48 drives the drive gear 3 to mesh with the rack 3 45, causing the movable slide 2 47 to slide along the movable guide rail 2 46. The linkage mounting plate 2 40 adjusts the horizontal position, and the electric screw 41 drives the fixed frame 42 to make a slight horizontal adjustment, so that the electric gripper 44 is aligned with the placement box 59. The electric push rod 43 extends and retracts to adjust the height of the electric gripper 44. After clamping the placement box 59, the electric screw and the movable slide 2 47 work together to transfer the placement box 59 into the electric water bath 4 and put it down. The electric water bath 4 performs water bath thawing treatment on the placement box 59 and the abalone umami peptide inside.

[0080] like Figure 10 As shown, the refrigeration method of this classification and refrigeration device for processing seafood using abalone umami peptides includes the following specific steps:

[0081] S1, Classified Pre-cooling Conveying: According to the differences in the state of abalone umami peptides, they are respectively sent into the corresponding paste conveying component, liquid conveying component and powder conveying component. The refrigeration unit 1 continuously circulates cooling to the pre-cooling box component 19 through the guide die head 17, so that the conveying channel maintains a stable low temperature. The material is cooled down synchronously during the conveying process, and finally sent into the placement box 59 of the conveyor 6 through the guide die head 17, realizing the synchronous operation of pre-cooling and feeding.

[0082] S2, Automated feeding into the box: The conveyor 6 transfers the placement box 59 containing the material to the feeding mechanism 7. The feeding mechanism 7 adjusts the height of the feeding plate 32 by lifting and lowering it so that it is aligned with the discharge end of the conveyor 6 and receives the placement box 59. The feeding plate 32 is rotated to the front of the corresponding refrigeration area of ​​the refrigerator body 9 by rotating. The limit counterweight plate 15 is lifted by two electric push rods 2 33, opening the heat insulation gate 13. Then, the placement box 59 is pushed into the corresponding support drawer 11 by the coordinated action of electric push rod 1 30 and electric push rod 3 34. After the push rods are reset, the gate 14 closes automatically by gravity, completing the feeding and sealing.

[0083] S3, Sealed and Insulated Refrigeration: The refrigeration unit 1 continuously supplies cooling to the refrigerator body 9. The independent refrigeration area is formed by the insulation plate 24. Combined with the gate 14, sealing gasket, and the ring rubber gasket 10 supporting the drawer 11, the multiple sealing structure avoids temperature cross-interference and provides a suitable long-term refrigeration environment for abalone umami peptides, ensuring the preservation of umami and quality.

[0084] S4, On-demand material retrieval: The corresponding pushing mechanism 2 is activated according to the demand. The pushing mechanism 2 drives the supporting drawer 11 to slide out from the rear of the refrigerator body 9, so that the placement box 59 is moved to the bottom of the handling mechanism 3. The handling mechanism 3 clamps and handles the placement box 59 by driving the electric gripper 44.

[0085] S5, Thawing: After clamping is completed, the electric gripper 44 transfers the placement box 59 to the electric water bath 4, where the electric water bath 4 performs water bath thawing treatment on the material to complete the thawing operation.

[0086] In summary, the pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5 pre-cools the materials to be refrigerated, the conveyor 6 and the feeding mechanism 7 work together to complete the automatic feeding, the multiple independent refrigeration areas in the refrigeration box mechanism 8 cooperate with the support drawer 11 to achieve classified storage, and the automatic material picking and thawing through the linkage of the pushing mechanism 2, the handling mechanism 3, and the electric water bath box 4 improves the processing efficiency and reduces manual intervention and quality fluctuations.

[0087] The stepped insulated gate 13, the gate 14 with sealing gasket, the limit counterweight plate 15, and the ring rubber gasket 10 on the support drawer 11 of the refrigerator body 9 form an automatic opening, closing and sealing mechanism. Combined with the continuous cooling supply of the refrigeration unit 1, each refrigeration area forms an independent and stable low-temperature environment to prevent temperature interference and cross-contamination of flavors, thereby achieving long-term preservation of abalone umami peptides and flavor retention.

[0088] The pre-cooling conveying mechanism 5 conveys abalone umami peptides in three states through its paste conveying component, liquid conveying component, and powder conveying component, achieving uniform pre-cooling during the conveying process. The feeding mechanism 7 uses the lifting of the sliding seat 29, the rotation of the feeding plate 32, and the coordinated actions of the electric push rods 33, 30, and 34 to complete the entire process of opening and closing the insulated gate 13, receiving and transferring the material. The handling mechanism 3, through the cooperation of multi-axis movement and electric grippers 44, achieves smooth transfer of the material from the box to the water bath thawing stage.
