DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the following will be combined with the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] like Figures 1-9 As shown, a food thawing device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a cabinet 1, within which are mounted multiple sets of brackets 2. The brackets 2 are metal brackets with good stability and heavy-load capacity. Inserts 207 are fixedly mounted on the brackets 2, and slots matching the inserts 207 are defined on the inner wall of the cabinet 1. The brackets 2 can be placed inside the cabinet 1. When the brackets 2 need to be moved, the inserts 207 on the brackets 2 can slide within the slots on the inner wall of the cabinet 1, making it easy to adjust the position of the brackets 2, thereby facilitating the placement of food.
[0036] A supporting plate 201 is fixedly installed in the middle position of multiple groups of brackets 2. The supporting plate 201 has a hollow structure, which allows hot air to pass through its interior, thereby indirectly heating the food and transferring heat to the part where the food contacts the bracket, thereby solving the problem of poor thawing effect in this part.
[0037] An air pipe 4 is fixedly installed inside the cabinet 1 and is firmly installed inside the cabinet 1 . The air pipe 4 can be made of a pipe with good corrosion resistance, such as a copper pipe, a stainless steel pipe, or an aluminum-plastic composite pipe.
[0038] One end of the air pipe 4 is connected to an air supply assembly, which includes a fan 5 and a heating wire heating box 6. A heating wire is installed inside the heating wire heating box 6. One end of a connecting pipe 7 is connected to the interior of the heating wire heating box 6. The output end of the fan 5 is also connected to the interior of the heating wire heating box 6. The fan 5 generates gas, which is transmitted through the connecting pipe 7 to the interior of the heating wire heating box 6. A heating wire is fixedly installed inside the heating wire heating box 6, which converts the gas into hot gas. After the hot gas is converted by the heating wire heating box 6, it is transferred to the interior of the air pipe 4. The fan 5 and the heating wire heating box 6 are welded to the rear of the cabinet, improving safety.
[0039] A plurality of groups of air supply pipes 401 are fixedly installed on the air pipe 4, and the plurality of groups of air supply pipes 401 are respectively connected to the inside of the plurality of groups of bearing plates 201. Hot air can be simultaneously distributed to the inside of the plurality of groups of bearing plates 201 through the plurality of groups of air supply pipes 401, so that hot air is simultaneously supplied, and the difference in thawing rate between the plurality of layers of food caused by different hot air temperatures is eliminated.
[0040] As shown in Figures 1-4 The upper end surface of the bearing plate 201 is provided with a heat conduction plate 2011. In this embodiment, the heat conduction plate 2011 is preferably an aluminum alloy plate, which has good heat conduction performance and can conduct heat in hot air, and is used for contact heating and thawing of food. When the thawing cabinet is used, the food needs to be placed above the heat conduction plate 2011. The heat conduction plate 2011 is made of metal with good heat conductivity. When the food is placed on it, the hot air generated by the air supply assembly is transported to the inside of the air pipe 4, and then to the air supply pipe 401 and then to the inside of the bearing plate 201.
[0041] The hot air from the inside of the bearing plate 201 can be quickly transferred to the surface of the heat conduction plate 2011, so that the food placed on it can receive hot air faster and be discharged through the heat conduction plate 2011, thereby accelerating the thawing of the food.
[0042] A plurality of groups of air supply pipes 401 are fixedly installed on the air pipe 4, and the plurality of groups of air supply pipes 401 are respectively connected to the inside of the plurality of groups of bearing plates 201. Hot air can be simultaneously distributed to the inside of the plurality of groups of bearing plates 201 through the plurality of groups of air supply pipes 401, so that hot air is simultaneously supplied, and the difference in thawing rate between the plurality of layers of food caused by different hot air temperatures is eliminated.
[0043] At the same time, the contact part of the air supply pipe 203 and the bracket 2 is welded and closed, which can ensure that the hot air stops flowing when it is transferred to the surface of the bracket 2, and is only transferred out through the air hole 204.
[0044] The edge position of the upper end face of the bearing plate 201 is provided with a water collecting groove 2012, and the outer end face of the bearing plate 201 is provided with a height higher than that of the water collecting groove 2012. The water flowing out of the thawed food placed on the surface of the heat conducting plate 2011 can be retained on the water collecting groove 2012 and flow into the water collecting structure fixedly installed on the lower end face of the bearing plate 201 through the plurality of drainage holes 2013 opened on the lower end face of the water collecting groove 2012.
[0045] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the water collecting structure includes a water storage box 202 fixedly installed on the lower end face of the bearing plate 201, and the plurality of drainage holes 2013 are in communication with the inside of the water collecting groove 2012. The waste water flowing out of the thawed food can flow into the water storage box 202 through the drainage holes 2013 and be stored, and at the same time, the bearing plate 201 can block the water from flowing into the inside of the thawing cabinet, which can reduce environmental pollution; at the same time, the water flowing out of the surface of the thawed food can be stored in the water storage box 202, which can reduce the influence of this part of water on the thawing of the contact surface between the food and the tray.
[0046] The water storage box 202 is fixedly installed with a drain pipe 206, and the drain pipe 206 is fixedly installed with a water valve 205. The drain pipe 206 is connected to the outer end face of the water storage box 202 by bolts, and the outer end face of the drain pipe 206 in contact with the water storage box 202 is also provided with a sealing element, which can improve the sealing performance.
[0047] Specifically, when water needs to be drained, the water valve 205 can be turned to make the water flow out of the drain pipe 206, and the flow rate of the water can also be adjusted by turning the water valve 205; a water pipe can also be externally connected to the drain pipe 206 to make the water draining operation more convenient.
[0048] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 , the cabinet 1 is fixedly installed with an exhaust pipe 3, and the exhaust pipe 3 is located at a position close to the top of the cabinet 1; at the same time, the exhaust pipe 3 is provided with a filtering assembly, which can realize the filtering and emission of waste gas.
[0049] The filtering assembly includes a filtering box 301 fixedly installed at the end of the exhaust pipe 3, and the inside of the filtering box 301 is fixedly installed with a filtering hole 3011 and a limiting adjusting plate 3012. The small holes on the filtering hole 3011 can purify the waste gas after thawing and not used, and at the same time, the limiting adjusting plate 3012 can adjust the direction of the waste gas emission after thawing, which can reduce environmental pollution.

At this time, the fan 5 starts to work, the gas generated by the fan 5 can be transmitted to the electric heating wire heating box 6 through the connecting pipe 7, the electric heating wire heating box 6 heats the gas, and then the heated gas is transmitted to the inside of the multi-layer gas supply pipe 401 under the multi-layer bracket 2 through the gas pipe 4, the hot gas is transmitted to the inside of the bearing plate 201 again through the gas supply pipe 401, and then the hot gas is transmitted to the inside of the gas conveying pipe 203 through the inside of the bearing plate 201, and then is transmitted to the surface of the food placed on the heat-conducting plate through the air holes 204 on the gas conveying pipe 203, so that the food on each bracket is not interfered with during thawing, and the food can be thawed without being affected, and the thawing efficiency is improved. Meanwhile, the heat-conducting plate 2011 is made of metal with good heat-conducting performance, the hot gas from the inside of the bearing plate 201 can be quickly transmitted to the surface of the heat-conducting plate 2011, so that the food placed thereon can quickly receive the hot gas and emit it through the heat-conducting plate 2011, and good contact type thawing is realized. Meanwhile, the waste water flowing out of the thawed food can flow to the inside of the water storage box 202 through the drain hole 2013, and the waste water can be collected; the water storage box 202 is fixedly installed with a drain pipe 206 and a water valve 205, and the waste water in the water storage box 202 can be discharged; meanwhile, the water collecting groove 2012 outside the bearing plate 201 can prevent the waste water from dripping into the inside of the thawing cabinet, reduces the damage of the waste water to the thawing cabinet, and reduces environmental pollution. The thawing cabinet is further fixedly installed with an exhaust pipe 3 at the top, and the waste gas can be discharged.
