Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food processing supplies, in particular to a steamer using solvent-free silicone oil release paper. Background Art

[0002] In southern my country, especially in Guangdong, a social food culture of drinking morning tea is popular. During morning tea, people can drink tea, chat and eat snacks with relatives and friends. For young people today, tea soup is not the main feature of morning tea, but snacks are the main feature of morning tea, thus forming a morning tea culture for young people. Many snacks for morning tea need to be steamed in a steamer. Some snacks can be placed in a dish and steamed in a steamer. However, water is easy to accumulate in the dish during the steaming process, which can easily lead to the decline of the quality of some snacks such as steamed dumplings, siu mai, and buns. When steaming these snacks, Usually release paper is needed in the steamer to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom of the snacks, and to prevent the snacks from sticking to the steamer, making the steamer difficult to clean. However, these snacks generally have high surface viscosity or expand during the steaming process. After being brought to the table and cooled briefly, these snacks will adhere to the release paper in the steamer. When diners pick up the snacks, they will also pick up the release paper at the same time. In this case, diners usually need to peel off the release paper stuck on the snacks before they can eat the snacks, which affects the diners' dining experience. If the release paper is fixed to the steamer and the smaller peeling force of the release paper is used, the above problem can be well solved.

[0003] Some existing steamers do not have a structure for fixing the release paper and cannot solve the above-mentioned problem. For example, a steamer (publication number: CN202567755U) discloses a steamer, including a steamer body with a steamer partition inside. When the steamer is used to steam dumplings, siu mai, buns and other foods with high viscosity or that expand during the steaming process, it is usually necessary to put a layer of release paper on the top of the steamer partition. However, the steamer cannot fix the release paper, and the food and the release paper are easily adhered to each other, resulting in the diners taking the food and the release paper at the same time. If other foods are adhered to the release paper, these foods will be dragged along with the movement of the release paper. During the dragging process, these foods may fall on the dining table and be contaminated by bacteria, affecting their consumption. To avoid these situations, diners usually need to use their hands or other tableware to hold the release paper against the release paper when taking the food, thereby separating the taken food from the release paper, but this operation is more troublesome.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The implementation methods of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and relevant embodiments. The implementation methods of the present invention are not limited to the following embodiments, and the present invention involves relevant necessary components in this technical field, which should be regarded as common knowledge in this technical field and can be known and mastered by technical personnel in this technical field.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a steamer using solvent-free silicone oil release paper includes a steamer body 1 and a release layer 2. The steamer body 1 consists of a fixed frame 11 and a base 12 sleeved on the bottom of the fixed frame 11. An edge of the base 12 is surrounded by a frame 13 extending upward. The inner diameter of the frame 13 matches the outer diameter of the fixed frame 11. An external thread 111 is provided on the radial surface of the fixed frame 11, and an internal thread 131 is provided on the inner side of the frame 13. The external thread 111 and the internal thread 131 match each other. The diameter of the release layer 2 matches the inner diameter of the frame 13. The release layer 2 consists of a substrate 21 and a solvent-free silicone oil layer 22 provided on both sides of the substrate 21. The bottom of the release layer 2 abuts against the top of the base 12, and the top edge of the release layer 2 abuts against the bottom of the fixed frame 11.

[0022] The steamer body 1 of the utility model is assembled by a fixing frame 11 and a base 12. The fixing frame 11 is annular and the base 12 is cylindrical, so as to form a steamer with a cylindrical appearance and a groove on the top for holding food. The radial surface of the fixing frame 11 is provided with an external thread 111, and the frame 13 on the top of the base 12 is annular and the inner side of the frame 13 is provided with an internal thread 131 matching the external thread 111. The external thread 111 is meshed with the internal thread 131 by twisting the base 12 or the fixing frame 11, so that the base 12 is sleeved on the bottom of the fixing frame 11 through the frame 13, and the fixing frame 11 and the base 12 are fixed.

[0023] The release layer 2 of the utility model preferably adopts solvent-free silicone oil release paper, and the substrate 21 preferably adopts glassine base paper. Glassine base paper has the advantages of high temperature resistance, moisture and oil resistance, smooth surface, high strength, etc. The high temperature resistance and moisture and oil resistance of glassine base paper can make the release paper more suitable for isolating food from the steamer, avoiding deformation or damage of the release paper during food steaming. Silicone oil can be directly coated on the surface of glassine base paper to form release paper, without coating a coating layer, avoiding high temperature during steaming and causing harmful substances in the coating layer to migrate into food, affecting human health; each solvent-free silicone oil layer 22 is solidified solvent-free silicone oil, which is healthy and environmentally friendly and has good thermal stability. Solvent-free silicone oil does not contain any organic solvents during the production process, so no harmful substances such as volatile organic matter will be generated, and good thermal stability can avoid decomposition or oxidation of silicone oil during food steaming, causing changes in the original properties of silicone oil.

[0024] Before assembling the steamer body 1, spread the release layer 2 flat on the top surface of the base 12, then twist the base 12 or the fixed frame 11 to make the external thread 111 engage with the internal thread 131, when the base 12 or the fixed frame 11 cannot be twisted, fix the fixed frame 11 to the base 12, at the same time, the bottom of the fixed frame 11 and the top of the base 12 are respectively abutted against the top edge and the bottom edge of the release layer 2, the fixed frame 11 and the base 12 clamp the release layer 2 on the top surface of the base 12, then place the food on the surface of the release layer 2, and place the steamer body 1 in a steamer to steam the food.

[0025] The steamer body 1 of the utility model is suitable for containing morning tea snacks such as steamed dumplings, siomai, and buns, which have high surface viscosity or expand during the steaming process. The steamer body 1 is composed of a fixed frame 11 and a base 12. The fixed frame 11 and the base 12 are assembled or disassembled by matching external threads 111 and internal threads 131. After the steamer body 1 is assembled, the fixed frame 11 and the base 12 clamp the release layer 2. After the above-mentioned snacks are steamed, although the snacks will still adhere to the release layer 2, since the release layer 2 is fixed by the steamer body 1, the snacks will gradually separate from the release layer 2 when being picked up by diners, and the release layer 2 is still fixed in the steamer body 1. When diners pick up the snacks, there is no need to use hands or other tableware to fix the release layer, or peel off the release layer after picking up the snacks, thereby improving the dining experience of diners.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, as one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, the base 12 is provided with a plurality of through slots 14 extending from the center to the edge of the base 12 , and each through slot 14 passes through the top and the bottom of the base 12 .

[0027] The steamer body 1 of the utility model is placed in a steamer and steams the food in the steamer body 1. The water vapor generated during the steaming process can enter the steamer body 1 along the plurality of through grooves 14 of the base 12. The food is steamed by heating the food with the high temperature of the water vapor. At the same time, part of the water vapor will form water droplets during the steaming process and drip onto the top surface of the base 12. These water droplets will accumulate on the top surface of the base 12. However, if some food is soaked in water, its quality will be affected. The through grooves 14 can prevent water from accumulating on the top surface of the base 12, because when water starts to accumulate on the top surface of the base 12, it will drip down along the through grooves 14, and thus cannot accumulate.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1 , as one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of grooves 23 are provided on the edge of the release layer 2 . Each groove 23 passes through the top and bottom of the release layer 2 , and the inner side of each groove 23 extends to the inner side of the fixing frame 11 .

[0029] At present, the common release paper for food has a plurality of through holes on its surface, so that water vapor during the steaming process can enter the steamer along the through holes. However, in fact, most of the through holes will be blocked by food and cannot allow water vapor to pass through. Moreover, when steaming food with a soft surface or that will expand, these foods will be embedded in the through holes during the steaming process, making it difficult to separate the food from the release paper. The edge of the release layer 2 of the utility model is provided with a plurality of grooves 23 for allowing water vapor to enter the steamer body 1. The grooves 23 are located at the inner edge of the steamer body 1. Water vapor can enter the steamer body 1 through the through grooves 14 and the grooves 23 in sequence. Moreover, when steaming food, the food is usually placed near the center of the steamer body 1, which can prevent the food from blocking the grooves 23 and affecting the water vapor from entering the steamer body 1, thereby improving the steaming efficiency of the food.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1 , as one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, the top of the base 12 is conical and a protrusion 15 is formed at the central protrusion.

[0031] The raised portion 15 of the utility model can make the water drops dripping onto the top surface of the base 12 flow to the edge of the base 12, and then the water drops drip along the edge groove 23 of the release layer 2 and the through groove 14 of the base 12 to the bottom of the steamer body 1, so as to prevent excessive water from accumulating on the top surface of the base 12 and soaking the food.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, as one of the preferred embodiments of the utility model, a steamer cover 3 matching with a fixing frame 11 is sleeved on the top of the steamer body 1 .

[0033] The steamer cover 3 of the utility model is used to cover the top of the steamer body 1. The top of the steamer cover 3 is provided with a handle for grabbing the steamer cover 3. The steamer cover 3 can allow most of the water vapor entering the steamer body 1 to stay in the steamer body 1, thereby extending the contact time between the water vapor and the food in the steamer body 1 and improving the efficiency of food steaming.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, as one of the preferred embodiments of the utility model, the top of the fixing frame 11 is recessed downward to form a circle of closed positioning grooves 112, and the bottom edge of the steamer cover 3 is provided with a first protrusion 31 matching the positioning groove 112.

[0035] When the steamer cover 3 of the utility model is covered on the top of the steamer body 1, the first protrusion at the bottom of the steamer cover 3 is placed in the locking groove 112 at the top of the fixing frame 11, which can prevent the steamer from tilting or the thrust of the water vapor from causing the steamer cover 3 to slide off the top of the steamer body 1. At the same time, the locking groove 112 and the first protrusion can improve the airtightness between the steamer cover 3 and the steamer body 1, so that more water vapor can stay in the steamer body 1, prolonging the contact time between the water vapor and the food in the steamer body 1, and improving the efficiency of food steaming.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, as one of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, a second protrusion 16 matching the locking groove 112 is provided at the bottom edge of the base 12 .

[0037] The second protrusion 16 at the bottom of the base 12 of the utility model can allow the steamer body 1 to be stably stacked on top of another steamer body 1, and multiple steamer bodies 1 containing food can be stacked vertically upward, and the top of the steamer body 1 at the top is covered with a steamer cover 3, so that the food in multiple steamer bodies 1 can be steamed at the same time by the steamer, thereby increasing the number of foods that can be steamed at the same time, thereby improving the efficiency of steaming food.

[0038] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
