Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of kitchenware, and in particular to a heat-insulating hot food station. Background Technology

[0002] Insulated hot food counters are generally used by people to take their meals. They are now widely used in canteens and other places. They usually use electric heating water to keep the food bowls warm, so that diners can enjoy hot food.

[0003] In related technologies, the warming platform includes a water tank, a support frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank, and an electric heating element that passes through the bottom wall of the water tank. The bottom of the water tank has a water outlet, and the side wall has a water inlet. The electric heating element heats the water in the tank, and the steam from the hot water helps to keep the food warm.

[0004] The aforementioned insulated food warming station can achieve the effect of heat preservation, but it still has the following technical defects: the current insulated food warming station has too small a gap between the food basin and the countertop, so when changing food, people's hands can easily come into contact with the hot countertop, causing burns, which poses a certain safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0005] To reduce the risk of burns, this application provides an insulated hot food station.

[0006] The insulated hot food counter provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A heated food stand includes a water tank, a bracket fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank, and an electric heating element passing through the bottom of the water tank. The top of the water tank has two support plates on either side for holding the edges of food bowls. Lifting mechanisms for raising and lowering the support plates are provided on both sides of the water tank. Each support plate has a groove for a hand to reach into. The lifting mechanism includes a connecting seat connected to the support plate, a screw, a first bevel gear, a second bevel gear, a rotating shaft, and a drive assembly. The screw is vertically positioned and threaded to the connecting seat. The bottom of the screw is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear, which meshes with the second bevel gear. The second bevel gear is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, which is rotatably connected to the water tank. The drive assembly drives the rotating shaft to rotate. The drive assembly includes a rack and a spur gear. The drive assembly drives the rotating shaft to rotate through the meshing of the rack and spur gear. The spur gear is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to change the food in the hot food station, the drive component drives the rotating shaft to rotate, and then drives the first bevel gear to rotate through the second bevel gear. The screw rotates accordingly, causing the tray to rise, expanding the space between the edge of the food basin and the countertop, making it easier for people to reach under the food basin, reducing the risk of being burned when changing food, and making it easier for people to lift the food basin, thereby improving the efficiency of food basin replacement.

[0009] Optionally, the drive assembly includes a spur gear and a rack, with two racks slidably connected to both sides of the water tank, the racks meshing with the spur gear, and the spur gear being fixedly connected to the rotating shaft.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the rack and gear mesh with each other. When the rack moves in the horizontal direction, it drives the spur gear to rotate, thereby driving the shaft to rotate. The gear and rack meshing transmission makes the transmission process smooth, with low noise and high transmission efficiency.

[0011] Optionally, a connecting strip is fixedly connected between the ends of the two racks, and a handle is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting strip.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the handle is pulled, the spur gears on both sides can rotate at the same speed, which drives the rotating shaft to rotate at the same speed, thereby raising the trays on both sides at the same speed and ensuring the stability of the vegetable basin during the lifting process.

[0013] Optionally, a limiting guide rail is provided above the rack, the limiting guide rail is slidably connected to the rack, and the limiting guide rail is fixedly connected to the water tank.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the handle is pulled, the rack will not disengage from the gear due to the limiting device, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the drive component and the lifting mechanism.

[0015] Optionally, guide rods are slidably provided on both sides of the tray, and the guide rods are fixedly connected to the water tank.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the tray is less likely to rotate when the lifting mechanism lifts the vegetable basin, thus ensuring stability during lifting.

[0017] Optionally, a reinforcing rib is provided between the tray and the connecting seat.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection strength between the tray and the connecting seat is strengthened, enabling the tray to withstand greater pressure.

[0019] Optionally, the lifting mechanism is covered with a protective cover, which is fixedly connected to both sides of the water tank.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the mechanical structure of the lifting mechanism is less likely to rust due to splashing of liquids such as water and soup, and food is less likely to fall in and jam the gears, thus protecting the lifting mechanism and ensuring a certain degree of aesthetics.

[0021] Optionally, the tray is provided with a cushion on top.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, a certain buffer is provided when placing the food bowl, reducing the risk of food splashing out. The soft pad can also effectively protect the upper surface of the tray, reduce wear and tear, and the soft pad itself has a certain heat insulation capacity.

[0023] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. With the lifting mechanism, when it is necessary to change the dish, pull the handle and the lifting mechanism will lift the dish, expanding the space between the edge of the dish and the countertop, making it easier for people to reach under the dish, reducing the risk of burns when changing dishes, and providing higher safety.

[0025] 2. The soft pad provides cushioning when placing the food bowl, reducing the risk of spillage and effectively protecting the upper surface of the tray, reducing wear and tear and improving heat insulation. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0032] This application discloses an insulated food warming station. (See also...) Figure 1 The insulated food warming station includes a water tank 1, with a support frame 2 fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank 1. The water tank 1 is used to place multiple food bowls side by side, providing support. An electric heating element 3 is installed at the bottom of the water tank 1. After water is added to the water tank 1, the electric heating element 3 is activated to heat the water and generate steam to achieve the function of keeping the food warm.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 The sink 1 has a support plate 4 on both sides of its top, and a lifting mechanism 5 for driving the support plate 4 to rise and fall. When the vegetable bowl is placed in the sink 1, its edge fits against the upper surface of the support plate 4, so that the support plate 4 supports the vegetable bowl. The lifting mechanism 5 can drive the support plate 4 to move down to fit against the top of the sink 1, so that the support plate 4 is supported by the sink 1, ensuring the support effect for the vegetable bowl; the lifting mechanism 5 can also drive the support plate 4 to move up 5cm, so that a 5cm gap is formed between the support plate 4 and the top of the sink 1, so that a person can reach under the edge of the vegetable bowl to lift it out. The lifting mechanism 5 includes a connecting seat 51 fixedly connected to the support plate 4, and a reinforcing rib 6 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support plate 4. One side of the reinforcing rib 6 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 51, improving the connection strength and structural stability between the support plate 4 and the connecting seat 51. In this embodiment, the groove 41 is square; in other embodiments, the groove 41 can also be circular, V-shaped, or other shapes.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 Guide rods 8 slide through both sides of the tray 4, and the guide rods 8 play a role in positioning and guiding the tray 4 to ensure that the tray 4 is lifted vertically. A soft pad 42 is attached to the upper surface of the tray 4, which can provide a cushioning and shock absorption effect when changing the vegetable basin, and can also protect the surface of the tray 4 and reduce wear and tear.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 The water tank 1 is fixedly connected to both sides with protective covers 9 covering the surface of the lifting mechanism 5. The protective covers 9 can prevent impurities such as soup and hot water from entering the mechanical structure, protect the internal structure to operate stably, and make the overall shape more beautiful.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 The lifting mechanism 5 includes a connecting seat 51 fixedly connected to the support plate 4, a screw 52, ​​a first bevel gear 53, a second bevel gear 54, a rotating shaft 55, and a drive assembly 56. The screw 52 is vertically positioned and threadedly connected to the connecting seat 51. The first bevel gear 53 is fixedly connected below the screw 52, ​​meshing with the second bevel gear 54. The second bevel gear 54 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating shaft 55, which is horizontally positioned on both sides of the water tank 1 and rotatably connected to it. When the lifting mechanism 5 is in operation, the drive unit drives the rotating shaft 55 to rotate. The second bevel gear 54 rotates coaxially with the rotating shaft 55, driving the first bevel gear 53 to rotate. The first bevel gear 53 drives the screw 52 to rotate, and the screw 52 drives the connecting seat 51 to move vertically via a helical transmission.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3The drive assembly 56 includes a spur gear 561, a rack 562, a connecting strip 563, and a handle 564. The racks 562 are located on both sides of the water tank 1, and the ends of the two racks 562 are fixedly connected by the connecting strip 563. The handle 564 is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting strip 563. The spur gear 561 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 55 and meshes with the racks 562. Pulling the handle 564 causes the racks 562 to drive the spur gear 561 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft 55 to rotate. The racks 562 on both sides are fixedly connected by the connecting strip 563 to ensure that the rotating shafts 55 on both sides rotate at the same speed.

[0038] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 A limiting guide rail 7 is slidably connected above the rack 562, and the limiting guide rail 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the water tank 1. The limiting guide rail 7 restricts the displacement direction of the rack 562, making it less likely for the rack 562 to disengage during the meshing and rotation of the spur gear 561, thus ensuring the stability of the operation of the drive assembly 56.

[0039] The implementation principle of the insulated hot food station in this application embodiment is as follows:

[0040] When the food in the serving dish is emptied and needs to be replaced, pulling the handle 564 causes the rack 562 to rotate the spur gear 561, which in turn rotates the shaft 55. The second bevel gear 54 rotates coaxially with the shaft 55, driving the first bevel gear 53 to rotate. The first bevel gear 53 then drives the screw 52 to rotate, lifting the serving dish by 5cm. The hand can then be easily inserted into the groove 41 to replace the dish. During this process, the hand does not touch the countertop, and hot water in the sink 1 is less likely to splash out, reducing the risk of burns and improving the efficiency of changing the serving dish.

[0041] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
