Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food processing equipment, specifically a tumbling machine for producing cured meat. Background Technology

[0002] Cured meat products are traditional meats and an indispensable part of culinary culture, widely enjoyed by people. The curing process is a crucial step in preparing cured meat. The seasoning for curing regular meat includes salt, Sichuan peppercorns, white wine, star anise, cinnamon, and chili peppers, while the seasoning for bacon is salt and chili powder.

[0003] In the industrial curing process of bacon, a tumbling machine is usually used for curing. The process involves adding the salt-cured meat and marinade into the tumbling machine and then mixing and stirring it to ensure that the marinade is more evenly applied to the meat.

[0004] There are now upgraded vacuum tumblers that create negative pressure inside the machine, which opens up the gaps between the meat fibers, making it easier for the marinade to penetrate.

[0005] Marinated meats typically include small pieces, strips, and ribs. Existing tumbling machines have a relatively simple structure, consisting of only a single large drum. Regardless of the quantity of meat being marinated, it is all tumbled inside this large drum. When marinating small quantities of meat, a single large drum consumes too much electricity, wasting energy; and when handling small pieces of meat, there may be insufficient contact between the meat and the marinade. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tumbling machine for cured meat production to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0007] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a tumbling machine for marinating meat production, comprising a chassis, a base fixed on one side of the chassis, a pneumatic control device fixedly installed on the base, a frame fixed on the chassis, a support platform rotatably installed on the frame via a rotating seat, and a roller rotatably installed on the support platform via a limiting ring;

[0008] A power assembly for driving the roller to rotate is provided on the support platform;

[0009] A connecting rod is fixed to one side of the support platform, and an insert penetrating the connector is fixed on the connecting rod.

[0010] A rod is inserted into a drum, and a marinating chamber is set inside the drum. One end of the rod is located inside the marinating chamber and is fixed with a fixed plate. Multiple stirring drums are set on the fixed plate. Gears are fixed on the stirring drums. A gear ring is fixed inside the marinating chamber. Each gear meshes with the gear ring.

[0011] A control component is provided inside the fixed plate, which can control the movement of each stirring cylinder towards the center or outward.

[0012] Preferably, the roller is equipped with a sealing cover, on which a valve core is fixedly installed.

[0013] Preferably, two electric telescopic devices are hinged to the chassis, each controlling a telescopic rod, one end of which is hinged to the support platform.

[0014] Preferably, the control box is fixedly mounted on the frame.

[0015] Preferably, the power assembly includes a motor fixed on the support platform, a pulley one fixed on the motor shaft of the motor, the pulley one being driven by friction with a belt, the other side of the belt being driven by friction with a pulley two, the stirring drum being fixed on the connecting head, and the connecting head being fixed to the drum.

[0016] Preferably, the insertion rod is rotatably engaged with the connector, and a mechanical seal is fixed to the connector for sealing.

[0017] Preferably, the control component includes a screw rotatably mounted on the fixed plate, a handle fixed to one end of the screw, several slide rails fixed on the fixed plate with the screw as the center, a slider slidably mounted in the slide rails, a fixed seat fixed on the slider, a rotating shaft rotatably mounted on the fixed seat, the rotating shaft being fixed to the gear, a first hinge seat fixed inside the fixed seat, the first hinge seat being hinged to a connecting rod, the other end of the connecting rod being hinged to a second hinge seat, each of the second hinge seats being fixed on a threaded block, the threaded block having threads, the screw also having threads, the screw passing through the threaded block and engaging with each other threadedly.

[0018] Preferably, multiple blades are fixed inside the marinating chamber, and two blades are fixed inside the stirring drum.

[0019] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] This invention features a connecting rod fixed to one side of the support platform, with an insert rod through which a connector is fixed. A marinating chamber is located inside the drum. One end of the insert rod is positioned within the marinating chamber and fixed to a mounting plate. Multiple stirring drums are mounted on the mounting plate, with gears fixed to the stirring drums. A gear ring is fixed within the marinating chamber, and each gear meshes with the gear ring. When the amount of meat to be marinated is small, or when the meat is small in size, the meat and marinade are placed into the respective stirring drums. When the drum is driven to rotate, it drives the gear rings to rotate. The meshing of the gear rings with the gears drives the gears to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring drums to rotate, ensuring thorough mixing of the meat and marinade within the stirring drums. This optimizes the marinating process for smaller quantities of meat.

[0021] The marinating effect is better when the meat is small. A control component is set in the fixed plate. The control component can control each mixing drum to move towards the center or outward. When there is a lot of meat to be marinated, or when the meat is large, the control component controls each mixing drum to move towards the center. Then, meat and marinade can be loaded into the marinating chamber. The marinating chamber is controlled to rotate, and the meat is marinated in the marinating chamber. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] Referring to Figure 1- Figure 7 The aforementioned meat-curing tumbling machine includes a chassis 11, a base 12 fixed to one side of the chassis 11, a pneumatic control device 13 fixedly installed on the base 12, a frame 15 fixed to the chassis 11, and a support platform 17 rotatably mounted on the frame 15 via a rotating seat 18.

[0033] 17. The roller 20 is mounted on the upper part by rotating through the limit ring 22;

[0034] The roller 20 is equipped with a removable sealing cover 19, and a valve core 21 is fixedly installed on the sealing cover 19. The air pressure control device 13 is connected to the valve core 21 through a pipe. The air pressure control device 13 can draw in or release air in the roller 20, so that a low-pressure state can be formed inside the roller 20, which is convenient for marinating meat.

[0035] Two electric telescopic devices 14 are hinged to the chassis 11. Each electric telescopic device 14 controls a telescopic rod, and one end of the telescopic rod controlled by the electric telescopic device 14 is hinged to the support platform 17.

[0036] A control box 16 is fixedly installed on the frame 15. The control box 16 is used to control the start and stop of the electrical components in this application. A PLC control program is integrated in the control box 16.

[0037] The control box 16 controls the start of the electric telescopic device 14. The telescopic rod of the electric telescopic device 14 extends and retracts, which controls the rotation of the platform 17 relative to the rotating seat 18, thereby adjusting the tilt of the roller 20. When the roller 20 is tilted upward, it is convenient to load meat, and when the roller 20 is tilted downward, it is convenient to remove meat.

[0038] A power assembly for driving the roller 20 to rotate is provided on the tray 17. After the meat and marinade are loaded into the roller 20, the power assembly drives the roller 20 to rotate, thereby making the meat and marinade fully mixed.

[0039] The power assembly includes a motor 23 fixed on the support platform 17, a pulley 24 fixed on the motor shaft of the motor 23, the pulley 24 being driven by friction with a belt 26, the other side of the belt 26 being driven by friction with a pulley 46, the stirring drum 30 being fixed on a connector 29, and the connector 29 being fixed to the drum 20.

[0040] A connecting rod 25 is fixed on one side of the support platform 17. An insert rod 28 is fixed on the connecting rod 25, passing through the connector 29. A marinating chamber 32 is provided inside the roller 20. One end of the insert rod 28 is located inside the marinating chamber 32 and is fixed with a fixing plate 31. Multiple stirring cylinders 30 are provided on the fixing plate 31. Gears 38 are fixed on the stirring cylinders 30. A gear ring 37 is fixed inside the marinating chamber 32. Each gear 38 meshes with the gear ring 37.

[0041] It should be noted that the insertion rod 28 is rotatably engaged with the connector 29, and a mechanical seal 27 is fixed to the connector 29 for sealing.

[0042] When marinating a small amount of meat, or when the meat is small in size, place the meat and marinade into each of the aforementioned mixing drums.

[0043] Within the drum 30, when the drum 20 is driven to rotate, it drives the gear ring 37 to rotate. The meshing of the gear ring 37 with the gear 38 drives the gear 38 to rotate, and the gear 38 drives the stirring drum 30 to rotate.

[0044] The movement ensures that the meat and marinade in the mixing drum 30 are fully mixed, thereby optimizing the marinating effect when the amount of meat is small or the meat is small.

[0045] A control component is provided inside the fixed plate 31. The control component can control each of the stirring drums 30 to move towards the center or outward. When there is a lot of meat to be marinated, or when the meat is large, the control component controls each of the stirring drums 30 to move towards the center. Then, meat and marinade can be loaded into the marinating chamber 32. The marinating chamber 32 is controlled to rotate, and the meat is marinated in the marinating chamber 32.

[0046] Example 2:

[0047] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the control component includes a screw 35 rotatably mounted on the fixed disk 31. One end of the screw 35 is fixed with a handle 34. Centered on the screw 35, several slide rails 40 are fixed on the fixed disk 31. A slider 41 is slidably mounted inside the slide rails 40. A fixed seat 42 is fixed on the slider 41. A rotating shaft 39 is rotatably mounted on the fixed seat 42. The rotating shaft 39 is fixed to the gear 38. A first hinge seat 43 is fixed inside the fixed seat 42. The first hinge seat 43 is hinged to a connecting rod 44. The other end of the connecting rod 44 is hinged to a second hinge seat 45. Each second hinge seat 45 is fixed on a threaded block 36. The threaded block 36 has threads. The screw 35 also has threads. The screw 35 passes through the threaded block 36 and is threadedly engaged with each other.

[0048] To control the movement of each of the stirring drums 30 towards the center or outward, manually turn the handle 34 to rotate the screw 35. The screw 35 and the threaded block 36 are engaged to move the threaded block 36. The threaded block 36 then moves the connecting rod 44 to move the slider 41 along the slide rail 40. The slider 41 then moves the stirring drum 30 towards the center or outward.

[0049] It should be noted that multiple blades 33 are fixed inside the marinating chamber 32, and blades 47 are fixed inside the stirring drum 30. The presence of blades 33 and blades 47 allows the meat to be turned over, resulting in a better marinating effect.

[0050] How to use:

[0051] When processing strips of meat, ribs, or a large quantity of meat, manually remove the sealing cap 19, manually turn the handle 34 to rotate the screw 35, and the screw 35 moves through the threaded engagement with the threaded block 36. The threaded block 36 then moves the connecting rod 44, which in turn moves the slider 41 along the slide rail 40. The slider 41 moves the mixing drum 30 toward the center. Then, manually add the meat to be processed and the prepared marinade, and replace the sealing cap 19.

[0052] After completion, the air pressure control device 13 is connected to the valve core 21 through a pipe, and the air pressure control device 13 draws air out of the roller 20 so that a low pressure state can be formed inside the roller 20.

[0053] The motor 23 is started by the control box 16. The motor 23 drives the pulley 24 to rotate. The pulley 24 drives the pulley 46 to rotate via the belt 26. The pulley 46 drives the roller 20 to rotate. When the roller 20 rotates, it mixes the meat and marinade thoroughly.

[0054] When the meat to be processed is in small pieces or the quantity of meat is small, manually remove the sealing cap 19, put the meat and the proportioned marinade into each of the mixing drums 30, and put the sealing cap 19 back on.

[0055] After completion, the air pressure control device 13 is connected to the valve core 21 through a pipe, and the air pressure control device 13 draws air out of the roller 20 so that a low pressure state can be formed inside the roller 20.

[0056] The motor 23 is started by the control box 16. The motor 23 drives the pulley 24 to rotate. The pulley 24 drives the pulley 46 to rotate via the belt 26. The pulley 46 drives the roller 20 to rotate. The roller 20 drives the gear ring 37 to rotate. The gear ring 37 meshes with the gear 38 to drive the gear 38 to rotate. The gear 38 drives the mixing drum 30 to rotate, thereby mixing the meat and marinade in the mixing drum 30.
