Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing, in particular to a sterilizing kettle for food processing. Background Art

[0002] Sterilization kettle, also known as sterilization pot or sterilization machine, is mainly used in food, medicine and other industries. It uses heating to sterilize products and reduce microorganisms and bacteria on the products.

[0003] In the prior art, sterilization kettles mostly use hot water circulation sterilization, steam sterilization and spray sterilization. Among them, spray sterilization uses a spray pipe or nozzle to spray hot water onto food. The sterilization process is through the nozzles installed on both sides or the top of the sterilization kettle, spraying hot water. However, the existing sterilization box placed in the sterilization kettle for holding food is usually fixed, which may cause the sterilization box to be heated uniformly during the spray sterilization process. In addition, the existing sterilization boxes are mostly stacked, and the net box may tip over due to the impact of hot water at the spray point and the vibration of the equipment, which poses certain risks.

[0004] In view of this, the present utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content
