Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of novel food packaging, and in particular relates to a salt storage tank capable of accurately controlling the amount of salt taken. Background Art

[0002] A high-salt (sodium) diet can increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke. The Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022) recommends that adults consume no more than 5 grams of salt per day. September 1, 2023 is the 17th "National Healthy Lifestyle Day". The theme of the event is "Three Reductions and Three Healths" starting from me. "Three Reductions and Three Healths" refers to reducing salt, oil and sugar, healthy oral cavity, healthy weight and healthy bones. It is proposed by the National Healthy Lifestyle Action Office at the Fifth China Healthy Lifestyle Conference in 2016 to carry out six special activities of "Three Reductions and Three Healths" from 2016 to 2025, emphasizing the use of the "Three Reductions and Three Healths" special action as a starting point to advocate and spread the concept of a healthy lifestyle, promote technical measures and support tools, and carry out various activities for the participation of all people.

[0003] At present, in the process of quantitative use of salt, consumers mostly use 1g, 2g or other specifications of quantitative spoons to add salt. For example, Chinese patent CN203088875U discloses a quantitative control spoon for salt, which includes a quantitative spoon head, a square sleeve, a finger ring, a push-pull rod, a scraper, a limit pin, and a thrust block. When using the quantitative spoon head to dig salt, the salt that is higher than the spoon surface can be pushed away by the scraper. For example, Chinese patent CN203138196U discloses a convenient salt spoon, including a spoon head and a spoon handle. The spoon handle is provided with a push rod, and the end of the push rod is provided with a baffle extending into the inside of the spoon head, and a positioning adjustment button is provided between the spoon handle and the push rod. When in use, the push rod is used to adjust the amount of salt contained in the spoon, and then the positioning adjustment button is used to fix it, and the salt can be taken by aligning it with the scale on the spoon handle. For example, Chinese patent CN201718946 U discloses a quantitative spoon, which is composed of a spoon and an elbow push-pull plate, and a slide groove is provided on both sides of the spoon handle, and a quantitative scale is provided on the inner wall of the spoon body. By moving the elbow push-pull plate back and forth, the space inside the spoon is adjusted and quantitative measurement is performed according to the quantitative scale.

[0004] When using the above-mentioned quantitative spoon to quantitatively take salt, additional extra operations are usually required, which is troublesome, such as scraping the salt in the spoon or observing the quantitative scale on the spoon. When people are cooking, they usually forget the above operations, which leads to the problem of inaccurate salt taking; in addition, quantitatively taking salt with a quantitative spoon can only quantitatively control the amount of salt taken at a single time. According to the requirements of the "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022)", for a single person, the daily salt intake should not exceed 5g, and for a family of three, the daily salt intake should not exceed 15g, but quantitatively taking salt with a quantitative spoon is not convenient for cumulative control of the amount of salt taken for three meals a day. In this regard, the applicant has developed a 5g small bag of edible salt products to facilitate the control of the amount of salt taken in daily diet. However, since the unused small bag products are difficult to store after opening, they are very easy to leak and absorb moisture and agglomerate, so the market is not optimistic. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a salt storage tank that can accurately control the amount of salt taken. By setting up a salt taking warehouse and dividing the salt taking warehouse into multiple quantitative salt warehouses, people can control the amount of salt taken in a single time or the cumulative amount of salt taken multiple times.

[0008] Preferably, the salt storage capacity of the multiple independent quantitative salt warehouses is the same.

[0009] Preferably, the salt storage capacity of the multiple quantitative salt bins is 1g, 2g or 5g.

[0010] Preferably, the salt intake control component includes a rotating handle arranged on the top of the salt taking bin, a rotating disk that can rotate in contact with the bottom surface of the salt taking bin, a leakage hole arranged on the turntable and matching the salt inlet one by one, and a rotating rod that can rotate freely and passes through the salt taking bin and is connected to the turntable at one end and the rotating handle at the other end.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] A salt storage tank that can accurately control the amount of salt taken, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , comprising a tank body 1, a tank cover 2, a salt taking bin 3 arranged on the top of the tank body 1 and a salt inlet control component 8 for controlling multiple salt inlets 7 to be opened or blocked at the same time; wherein the tank body 1 is a round or square tank, and is made of transparent glass or plastic; the salt taking bin 3 is divided into multiple independent quantitative salt bins 5 by a partition 4 along the circumferential direction; the tops of the multiple quantitative salt bins 5 are all provided with salt outlets 6; the bottoms of the multiple quantitative salt bins 5 are all provided with salt inlets 7 connected to the tank body 1 near the axial center of the salt taking bin 5; the tank cover 2 is an independent structure, and the tank cover 2 is rotatably arranged on the top of the salt taking bin 3 by rotating a thread, and the tank cover 2 is provided with a shaking port 9 that cooperates with the salt outlet 6;

[0026] When using the salt storage tank of the utility model, it is necessary to first fill multiple independent quantitative salt bins with salt. The specific method is as follows: Figure 6, turn the tank cover 2 to adjust the shaking port 9 to a position staggered with the salt outlet 6, then invert the salt storage tank of the utility model, and then control the multiple salt inlets 7 to be opened simultaneously by the salt inlet control component 8, so that the salt stored in the tank body 1 will enter the quantitative salt bin through the salt inlet 7. At the same time, the salt storage tank can be properly shaken while the salt storage tank is kept in an inverted state to promote the salt in the salt storage tank to leak into the quantitative salt bin until the quantitative salt bin is filled with salt; then the multiple salt inlets 7 are controlled to be blocked simultaneously by the salt inlet control component 8, and then the salt storage tank of the utility model is upright, that is, the filling of salt in the quantitative salt bin is completed; then, the utility model can be used The novel salt storage tank is used to accurately and quantitatively take salt. When taking salt, it is only necessary to rotate the tank cover 2, adjust the shaking outlet 9 to the position of the salt outlet 6, and then invert or tilt the salt storage tank of the utility model, and continuously shake the salt storage tank at the same time, so that the salt in the quantitative salt warehouse at the position of the salt outlet 6 can be sprinkled out; when the salt in the quantitative salt warehouse is used up, the shaking outlet 9 can be adjusted to the position of the salt outlet 6 of the next quantitative salt warehouse, and the quantitative salt can be continued to be taken; when the salt is taken, the tank cover 2 is rotated to adjust the shaking outlet 9 to a position staggered from the salt outlet 6, so that the salt in the quantitative salt warehouse can be sealed to prevent the salt from absorbing moisture and agglomerating or foreign matter from entering the salt;

[0027] In the present invention, the number of the multiple independent quantitative salt warehouses 5 and the salt storage capacity can be reasonably designed according to the number of family members. For example, in order to control the cumulative amount of salt taken for three meals a day for a family of four, the number of quantitative salt warehouses 5 can be set to 4, and the salt storage capacity of each quantitative salt warehouse 5 is set to 5g, that is, the maximum amount of salt that can be accommodated is 5g; after calculation, if the salt taking warehouse 3 is cylindrical, when the diameter of the salt taking warehouse 3 is 3.62cm and the height is 1.5cm, the total volume of the salt taking warehouse 3 is close to 15.38cm 3 The total salt storage capacity is about 20g. Taking Xuetian Salt Industry Ecological Salt as an example, the particle size range of the product is 0.3mm~0.85mm. After multiple tests, the bulk density of the product is about 1.3g / cm 3 Therefore, the salt storage bin 3 of the above specifications can be evenly divided into four independent quantitative salt bins 5 along the circumferential direction by the partition 4, so that the salt storage capacity of each quantitative salt bin 5 can be 5g. In this way, by controlling the cumulative amount of salt taken by a family of four to be less than the salt stored in the four quantitative salt bins, the total amount of salt can be controlled not to exceed the standard; and when the number of people at home changes, the salt stored in the quantitative salt bins of a reasonable number can be selected. For example, when only three people are at home in a family of four, the cumulative amount of salt taken can be controlled to be less than the salt stored in the three quantitative salt bins.

[0028] In addition, the utility model can also be used to realize the single precise addition of salt when preparing raw materials in the food processing and production process. For example, the number of quantitative salt warehouses 5 can be set to 8, and the salt storage capacity of each quantitative salt warehouse 5 is 1g, that is, the maximum capacity of 1g of salt can be accommodated. In this way, 1g of salt can be taken through one quantitative salt warehouse 5, or the required number of grams of salt can be taken through multiple quantitative salt warehouses 5, thereby achieving the purpose of accurately controlling the single precise addition of salt in the food processing and production process.

[0029] In some preferred embodiments, the salt storage amounts of the multiple independent quantitative salt warehouses 5 are the same.

[0030] In some preferred embodiments, the salt storage capacity of the multiple quantitative salt warehouses 5 is 1g, 2g or 5g; in view of the fact that the "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022)" recommends that the daily salt intake of adults should not exceed 5 grams, the salt storage capacity of the multiple quantitative salt warehouses 5 is 5g, which is exactly consistent with the recommended amount, so that it is convenient for the number of family members or the number of people at home to determine how many quantitative salt warehouses to use. For example, the amount of salt used daily by a family of three or three people at home should be less than the salt stored in three quantitative salt warehouses, and the amount of salt used daily by a family of four or four people at home should be less than the salt stored in four quantitative salt warehouses, and so on; in other usage scenarios, such as the precise addition of salt during the preparation of raw materials in the food processing and production process, the salt storage capacity of the quantitative salt warehouse 5 may also be 1g or 2g.

[0031] In order to conveniently control the simultaneous opening or blocking of multiple salt inlets 7, in some preferred embodiments, refer to Figures 1 to 4 The salt inlet control component 8 includes a rotating handle 803 arranged on the top of the salt taking bin 5, a rotating disk 801 that can rotate in contact with the bottom surface of the salt taking bin 5, a leakage port 802 arranged on the rotating disk 801 and corresponding to the salt inlet 7, and a rotating rod 804 that can rotate freely and passes through the salt taking bin 5 and is connected to the rotating disk 801 at one end and connected to the rotating handle 803 at the other end; based on this structure, when it is necessary to open the salt inlet 7 to fill the salt in the salt taking bin 5, it is only necessary to rotate the rotating handle 803 to make the leakage port 802 on the rotating disk 801 completely overlap or partially overlap with the salt inlet 7; when the salt inlet 7 needs to be blocked after the salt inlet 5 is filled with salt, it is also only necessary to rotate the rotating handle 803 to make the leakage port 802 on the rotating disk 801 completely staggered with the salt inlet 7.

[0032] In some preferred embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The salt taking bin 3 is detachably connected to the tank body 1 through a thread, so that the tank body 1 can be removed to add salt into the tank body 1.

[0033] In some preferred embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The salt outlet 6 is composed of a plurality of salt outlet holes, so that the salt can be more evenly distributed from the salt outlet.

[0034] In order to make the salt storage tank in an inverted state, the salt in the salt storage tank can flow more smoothly into the quantitative salt bin, in some preferred embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 An inverted conical salt hopper 101 is provided on the top of the tank body 1, and the top outlet of the salt hopper 101 is connected to the multiple salt inlets 7.
