[0002] High-efficiency steam sterilizer uses electric heating wire to heat water to generate steam and maintain a certain pressure. High-temperature and high-pressure steam can kill a variety of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and fungi, achieving effective sterilization. It is widely used in the food field and is one of the common sterilization equipment, providing protection for food safety.
[0003] At present, when sterilizing food raw materials, the raw materials are placed in a feed tray, and then the feed tray is sent to a sterilization tank for sterilization. However, the internal space of the sterilization tank is large. In order to ensure the efficiency of the sterilization process, several feed trays are usually placed in the sterilization tank at the same time for centralized processing. This results in a long time required when placing or taking out these feed trays in the sterilization tank. When placing and taking out the feed trays, the sterilization tank is in a shutdown state to avoid high temperature scalding of the staff, making the sterilization tank unable to sterilize the raw materials at this time. A lot of time is wasted in placing and taking out several feed trays, resulting in a reduction in the actual working time of the sterilization tank, and the efficiency of the sterilization of food raw materials needs to be improved.

The air plate 41 extracts the steam inside the steam sterilization tank 1, and the steam passes through the raw material sterilization chamber 21 and is discharged from the steam circulation channel 22 on the other side into the air extraction plate 41. The circulating fan 4 discharges the gas into the water storage tank 14 through the exhaust pipe 42, so that the steam dissolves in the water when entering the water storage tank 14, and the airflow output by the circulating fan 4 can drive the newly generated steam to enter the steam discharge channel 15 for discharge, which helps the air and steam moisture to circulate inside the device. When the material tray is taken out of the raw material sterilization chamber 21, the spring 32 pushes the adjustment plate 3, so that the adjustment plate 3 can drive the push plate 33 slides toward the sealing door 11, so that the adjustment plate 3 can drive the airflow partition plate 311 to isolate the steam flow channel 22 to prevent steam from entering the raw material sterilization chamber 21. At this time, the material tray can be taken out and a new material tray can be placed inside the space of the raw material sterilization chamber 21, while the interiors of the remaining raw material sterilization chambers 21 are in a steam circulation state.
