[0002] Crab sticks are a processed food made from minced fish. Although it is called "crab sticks", it is actually made of fish meat. Its official name is fish cake. In order to facilitate the subsequent processing of crab sticks, a steaming device is needed to steam and cook the crab sticks until cooked.
[0003] The basic principle of the current steaming device is to place the steamer on the top of the steaming box, which heats the water and uses steam to heat the crab sticks placed in the steamer. The transfer process requires repeated handling by personnel, and a large amount of water vapor will be generated during the steaming process. After the steaming is completed, in order to increase the elasticity, it is necessary to transfer and cool while hot. After the steaming is completed, the workers may be scalded by steam during the handling process. In addition, the steaming pot has a limited number of steam at a time and cannot achieve high-efficiency steaming. In addition, in the actual work process, it is difficult to ensure the cleanliness of the crab sticks because the crab sticks need to be transferred many times. Utility Model Content
