Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The calla chicken oven drum with a steam ring fumigation structure relates to a calla chicken oven drum with a steam ring fumigation structure for food heating and fumigation processing, belonging to the technical field of food heating and fumigation processing equipment, in particular to a calla chicken oven drum with a steam ring fumigation structure which forms a closed heating cavity through a baking assembly and realizes stable support and uniform heating of the whole chicken through a supporting net plate and a supporting column, and which realizes simultaneous baking and ring fumigation, keeps meat fresh and tender, and realizes aroma penetration through a ring steam passage formed by the clamping of a liquid storage cavity and a steam buffer cavity in the fumigation assembly, and uniform spraying of aroma-containing steam through steam injection holes to wrap the chicken. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a traditional baked food, the calla chicken is usually made by relying on airtight oven drums or electric heating ovens for high-temperature heating, so that the outer layer of the chicken is dried and colored and a yellowish skin is formed. The existing oven drum structure generally adopts a single heating cavity form, and the whole chicken is cooked by heating from the bottom or the sidewall. Some devices are provided with a spice tray or a water injection groove at the bottom for generating steam or aroma. However, the steam of this kind of structure is of the natural evaporation type, and cannot form a stable airflow direction, resulting in uneven steam diffusion and concentrated fumigation in a local area. The chicken body is rich in aroma on one side and dry on the other side, and the coloring and humidity are difficult to unify. In addition, baking and fumigation often need to be carried out in stages, which is complex to operate, and the temperature and humidity are difficult to control cooperatively, affecting the tenderness and taste level of the meat. Another common problem of the existing oven drum is that the food material support structure is relatively single. The traditional flat bottom tray or fixed net rack directly bears the whole chicken, and the water and oil on the bottom of the chicken body are easy to accumulate during the baking process, forming a "water bubble" phenomenon, which not only causes the bottom skin to be wet and soft and unable to color, but also affects the heat circulation path, resulting in uneven heating of the upper and lower parts and unsatisfactory baking effect. Although some improved structures use a perforated support net, they still have problems such as uneven stress, easy deformation, and heat gas retention due to the lack of stable support and flow guide design.

[0003] Publication No. CN110664271A discloses a beggar's chicken baking cylinder, which provides a method for making beggar's chicken that is close to the traditional method. It retains the flavor of earthen-baked beggar's chicken, is portable, simple to use, and convenient for beginners to quickly prepare beggar's chicken for family or outdoor gatherings. The cylinder is characterized by a sealed outer cylinder and a separable inner cylinder for placing the ingredients. The inner cylinder is placed inside the outer cylinder, and a gap channel for filling with earthen material is provided between the inner and outer cylinders. The whole chicken is placed in the inner cylinder, and the inner cylinder is placed inside the outer cylinder and filled with earthen material. The outer cylinder is then heated for baking, resulting in even heating and easy removal. The earthen material is effectively separated from the chicken, eliminating the need for removing the mud shell. This method retains the traditional earthen flavor of beggar's chicken and is easy for beginners to use. It is suitable not only for outdoor gatherings but also for batch baking in commercial ovens. However, the airflow circulation inside the baking cylinder relies on natural convection, which, due to the closed shape of the cylinder, can easily lead to problems such as overheating at the top and large temperature differences at the bottom. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To improve the above situation, the present invention provides a beggar's chicken drying cylinder with a steam circumferential smoking structure. This cylinder provides a closed heating cavity formed by the baking components and a supporting mesh plate and support columns to achieve stable support and uniform heating of the whole chicken. The liquid storage chamber and the steam buffer chamber in the smoking components are connected to form a circumferential steam channel. Fragrant steam is evenly sprayed out through steam injection holes to coat the chicken body, thereby achieving simultaneous baking and circumferential smoking, maintaining the tenderness of the meat and the penetration of aroma.

Detailed Implementation Example 1

[0010] The beggar's chicken drying cylinder with a steam circumferential smoking structure of the present invention is implemented as follows: The beggar's chicken drying cylinder with a steam circumferential smoking structure of the present invention includes a baking component and two sets of smoking components. The characteristic feature is that the smoking component is placed inside the baking inner cylinder (1) of the baking component, and the two sets of smoking components are respectively placed on both sides of the supporting mesh plate (3) and are clamped between the supporting mesh plate (3) and the baking inner cylinder (1). The baking component and the smoking component work together to heat and flavor the chicken through the combined effect of heat energy and aroma. The baking assembly includes an outer baking cylinder (7), a protective cover (8), an inner baking cylinder (1), a support mesh plate (3), and a support column (4). The baking outer cylinder (7) has a cylindrical structure and one end is open. The protective cover (8) is secured to the opening end of the baking outer cylinder (7). The baking inner cylinder (1) has a hollow cylindrical structure, and the horizontal plane where the central axis of the baking inner cylinder (1) is located divides it into two placement cavities, which are connected by a hinge. The supporting mesh plate (3) is placed inside the baking inner cylinder (1) and has an arc-shaped structure. The supporting mesh plate (3) coincides with the central axis of the baking inner cylinder (1). Preferably, the supporting mesh plate (3) is woven from stainless steel heat-resistant wire, and the surface of the supporting mesh plate (3) is provided with an anti-stick layer. A support column (4) is provided between the outer arc surface of the support mesh plate (3) and the baking inner cylinder (1). One end of the support column (4) is fixedly connected to the support mesh plate (3). Multiple support columns (4) are evenly distributed on the support mesh plate (3). The fumigation assembly includes a liquid storage chamber (5), a first slot (9), a steam buffer chamber (2), a second slot (10), and a steam injection hole (6). The liquid storage chamber (5) is placed inside the baking inner cylinder (1). The liquid storage chamber (5) is positioned between the supporting mesh plate (3) and the baking inner cylinder (1). The liquid storage chamber (5) has a semi-cylindrical structure with its flat end facing upward and being an open structure. The inner side of the opening end of the liquid storage cavity (5) has a first slot (9). The steam buffer chamber (2) is placed inside the baking inner cylinder (1). The steam buffer chamber (2) has a semi-cylindrical structure with its flat end facing down and being an open structure. The steam buffer chamber (2) has a second slot (10) on the outer side of the opening end. The steam buffer chamber (2) is engaged with the liquid storage chamber (5) through the first slot (9) and the second slot (10), forming a hollow cylindrical structure. The outer diameter of the steam buffer chamber (2) is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the baking inner cylinder (1). The steam buffer chamber (2) has multiple steam injection holes (6) near the edge of the end facing the supporting mesh plate (3). The multiple steam injection holes (6) are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the steam buffer chamber (2). Preferably, the diameter of the steam injection hole (6) gradually increases from the inner side to the outer side of the steam buffer chamber (2). Preferably, the wall of the steam injection hole (6) is provided with a hydrophobic coating. In use, open the hinge of the baking inner cylinder (1) to separate the two halves of the cylinder. Place the arc-shaped support mesh plate (3) in the center of the baking inner cylinder (1) and position the support column (4) between the outer arc surface of the support mesh plate (3) and the inner wall of the baking inner cylinder (1) to support the support mesh plate (3) and form the lower cavity. Then, inject an appropriate amount of tea water, lotus leaf water or other fumigation liquid into the liquid storage cavity (5). Place the two sets of liquid storage cavities (5) between the two ends of the support mesh plate (3) and the baking inner cylinder (1), and make them fasten with the corresponding steam buffer cavity (2) through the first slot (9) and the second slot (10) to form The sealed cavity structure allows the wrapped chicken to be placed on the support mesh plate (3), the baking inner cylinder (1) to be closed, and the whole chicken to be placed in the baking outer cylinder (7). Finally, the protective cover (8) is put on for heating and baking. During the baking process, the water and oil dripping from the surface of the chicken fall into the cavity below through the support mesh plate (3) without lingering, thus avoiding local water soaking. At the same time, the liquid in the storage cavity (5) evaporates due to heat, and after being collected in the steam buffer cavity (2), it is sprayed out in a circumferential direction through the steam jet hole (6), forming a circumferentially wrapped humid and fragrant airflow, which simultaneously smokes and humidifies the beggar's chicken, making the chicken tender inside, golden on the outside, and rich in tea aroma. Example 2

[0011] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the steam buffer chamber (2) is replaced by an irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11). The irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11) has an arc-shaped structure with its flat end facing down and is an open structure. In the vertical direction, the height of the irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11) is less than the height of the liquid storage chamber (5). The outer side of the open end of the irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11) has a third slot (13). Near the arc edge of the irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11), multiple steam guide holes (12) are evenly opened. The irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11) is engaged with the liquid storage chamber (5) through the first slot (9) and the third slot (13). When in use, when the gas pressure in the liquid storage chamber (5) and the irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11) rises abnormally and the steam cannot be discharged in time, the irregularly shaped buffer chamber (11) will be automatically pushed up by the internal gas pressure and detached from the liquid storage chamber (5), thereby realizing active pressure relief, preventing structural rupture or explosion caused by excessive pressure, and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the device in a high temperature and high pressure environment.

[0012] The liquid storage chamber (5) and the steam buffer chamber (2) are connected to the liquid storage chamber (5) by the first slot (9) and the second slot (10), and form a hollow cylindrical structure. This design can form a closed steam generation and buffer space, so that the water vapor in the liquid storage chamber is evenly distributed and stabilized before being sprayed out, thereby achieving a constant and continuous circumferential steam spray effect and improving the uniformity of smoking and aroma penetration. The steam buffer chamber (2) has multiple steam injection holes (6) near the edge of the end facing the support mesh plate (3). The design of the multiple steam injection holes (6) being equidistantly arranged around the steam buffer chamber (2) enables high-temperature aromatic steam to be sprayed out evenly in the circumferential direction, forming a 360° circumferential smoking airflow around the chicken body, thereby ensuring that all parts of the whole chicken are heated and scented in a consistent manner, avoiding the problems of local charring or uneven aroma. The design of the steam injection hole (6) with its diameter gradually increasing from the inner side to the outer side of the steam buffer chamber (2) can reduce the steam flow rate and expand the spray angle during the injection process, prevent the steam from impacting the surface of the chicken and causing local water droplets to condense, and at the same time make the aroma softer and diffuse more fully, improving the smoking quality and meat texture. A support column (4) is provided between the outer arc surface of the support mesh plate (3) and the baking inner cylinder (1). One end of the support column (4) is fixedly connected to the support mesh plate (3). The design of multiple support columns (4) evenly distributed on the support mesh plate (3) can provide stable support in the high temperature baking environment, prevent the support mesh plate from collapsing and deforming, and keep the chicken suspended off the bottom, so that the dripping liquid can be discharged smoothly, avoid local water soaking and improve heat flow circulation. The supporting mesh plate (3) is woven from stainless steel heat-resistant wire. The surface of the supporting mesh plate (3) is designed with an anti-stick layer, which can maintain structural strength and corrosion resistance at high temperature, prevent chicken skin from sticking or tearing during baking, and improve cleaning convenience and service life. The baking inner cylinder (1) is divided into two placement chambers by the horizontal plane of the central axis. The two placement chambers are connected by a hinge, which makes it easy to open and close the inner cylinder before and after use, making it convenient to put in and take out the whole chicken and clean the inside, thus improving the safety of operation and the convenience of human-machine interaction. The baking assembly forms a closed heating cavity and supports the whole chicken stably and heats it evenly with the support plate (3) and support column (4). The liquid storage chamber (5) in the smoking assembly is connected with the steam buffer chamber (2) to form a circumferential steam channel. The fragrant steam is evenly sprayed out through the steam injection hole (6) to wrap the chicken body, so as to achieve simultaneous baking and circumferential smoking, maintain the tenderness of the meat and the penetration of aroma.
