[0002] Meat products need to be blanched before processing to remove blood and impurities from the meat and effectively reduce its fishy smell.
[0003] When blanching meat in batches, food processing plants need to put cold water in a pot, then put the meat in the cold water, heat the water until it boils, and then drain the water from the bottom of the pot. During this draining process, blood foam falls with the water level and adheres to the surface of the meat. This requires subsequent workers to rinse the meat with a large amount of water, which takes a long time, is laborious, and wastes a lot of water resources. Utility Model Content

[0019] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: In actual production and use, when meat needs to be blanched, the arc-shaped telescopic baffle blocks the upper part of the heating pot. Then, cold water is added to the heating pot, ensuring the water level is higher than the pot's surface. The meat is then placed in the pot, and the heating pot is activated to heat the water, causing the blood and impurities in the meat to form foam that floats to the surface. After blanching, the linear drive mechanism is activated, causing the arc-shaped telescopic baffle to press down, thus releasing the blockage at the top of the heating pot and allowing the upper part of the pot to be coated with blood foam. The water containing the foam flows out from the lowest point of the curved telescopic baffle into the slag collection bucket. At this point, most of the blood foam in the heating pot is removed. Then, the valve is opened to allow the water in the heating pot to drain out from the first drain outlet, allowing the drained meat to be rinsed more easily. This makes blanching the meat more convenient and efficient, removing the blood foam floating on the surface of the water first, and then draining the remaining water. This reduces the amount of blood foam sticking to the surface of the meat after blanching, making it easier for operators to remove the remaining blood foam from the meat later, saving time and effort and reducing water waste.

[0028] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a blanching device of the present invention includes a heating pot 4, a scum removal mechanism and a scum collection bucket 7. The scum removal mechanism is provided on the upper part of the heating pot 4, the scum collection bucket 7 is sleeved on the outside of the heating pot 4, and a first drain outlet is provided at the bottom of the heating pot 4. A valve body is provided inside the first drain outlet.
[0030] The scum removal mechanism includes a frame 3 and two sets of scum discharge components. The frame 3 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the scum collection bucket 7. The two sides of the upper part of the heating pot 4 are respectively provided with one scum discharge component and the scum discharge component is connected to the frame 3.
[0031] The slag discharge assembly includes a linear drive component 1 and an arc-shaped telescopic baffle 8. Both ends of the arc-shaped telescopic baffle 8 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the heating pot 4. The upper part of the linear drive component 1 is connected to the frame 3, and the lower part of the linear drive component 1 is linearly driven connected to the middle part of the arc-shaped telescopic baffle 8.
[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In actual production and use, when it is necessary to blanch meat, the arc-shaped telescopic baffle 8 blocks the upper part of the heating pot 4. Then, cold water is put into the heating pot 4, so that the water level of the cold water is higher than that of the heating pot 4. Then, the meat is put into the heating pot 4 and the heating pot 4 is run to heat the water, so that the blood in the meat forms blood foam and floats on the surface of the water. After blanching, the linear drive 1 can be run to drive the middle part of the arc-shaped telescopic baffle 8 to press down, thereby removing the blockage at the top of the heating pot 4. The water with blood foam on the upper part of the heating pot 4 flows out from the lowest point of the arc-shaped telescopic baffle 8 to the inside of the slag collection bucket 7. At this time, most of the blood foam in the heating pot 4 is removed. Then, the valve body is opened to allow the water in the heating pot 4 to be discharged from the first drain outlet, so that the drained meat can be better rinsed later.
[0033] Furthermore, it also includes a draining plate 10, which is provided inside the heating pot 4. The draining plate 10 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the heating pot 4, and the draining plate 10 is provided with a plurality of draining holes.
[0034] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial for the meat to be placed on the draining plate 10 for blanching. After blanching, the wastewater from the draining holes on the draining plate 10 flows into the lower part of the heating pot 4 and is discharged outside the device through the first drain outlet, so that the meat can be drained quickly.
[0035] Furthermore, it also includes a filter cake plate 11. The middle part of the slag collection bucket 7 is provided with a limiting platform 9 that is adapted to the filter cake plate 11. The filter cake plate 11 is mounted on the limiting platform 9. The filter cake plate 11 is provided with a plurality of filter cake holes 12. The filter cake plate 11 is located below the arc-shaped telescopic baffle 8.
[0036] As can be seen from the above description, after the water containing a large amount of blood foam is discharged into the slag collection bucket 7, the floating slag can be filtered through the slag filter plate 11, and then the sewage is discharged outside the device.
[0037] Furthermore, it also includes a surface rinsing mechanism 2, which is also provided inside the heating pot 4;
[0038] The surface rinsing mechanism 2 includes a heating container 205, a rotation drive 203, a rotating shaft 202, a cover 204, and a rinsing assembly. The heating container 205 is located in the middle of the heating pot 4, and an opening is provided on the upper part of the heating container 205. The cover 204 is rotatably connected to the opening. The rotation drive 203 is located on the upper part of the frame 3, and the rotation drive 203 is drivenly connected to the cover 204 through the rotating shaft 202. A water inlet is provided on one side of the cover 204, and the rinsing assembly is connected to the water inlet. A water replenishment inlet is provided on the other side of the cover 204.
[0039] As described above, it is advantageous to replenish water to the heating container 205 through the water inlet while blanching meat. During the blanching process in the heating pot 4, the heating pot 4 also heats the cold water in the heating container 205 for later use through heat transfer, thereby reducing energy consumption. After the blanching wastewater is discharged, the rinsing component can be activated to rinse the remaining blood foam on the meat with the hot water in the heating container 205, so that the meat retains its original texture after being rinsed with hot water. During the rinsing process, the rotating drive component 203 can be activated, so that the rotating drive component 203 drives the cover 204 to rotate through the rotating shaft 202, thereby causing the cover 204 to drive the rinsing mechanism to rotate, so that the meat in the heating pot 4 can be thoroughly rinsed.
[0040] Furthermore, the rinsing assembly includes a water suction pipe 208, a water suction component 201, a diversion pipe 207, and a nozzle 206. The water suction pipe 208 passes through the water inlet. One side of the water suction pipe 208 is located inside the heating container 205, and the other side of the water suction pipe 208 is connected to the diversion pipe 207 through the water suction component 201. A plurality of nozzles 206 are provided on the diversion pipe 207, and the diversion pipe 207 is located above the heating pot 4.
[0041] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to rinse off the blood foam remaining on the surface of the meat, the water pump 201 can be operated so that the water pump 201 can draw the hot water in the heating container 205 into the diversion pipe 207 through the water pump pipe 208, and then rinse the meat through the nozzle 206.
[0042] Furthermore, a second drain outlet 5 is provided at the lower part of the slag collection bucket 7.
[0043] As can be seen from the above description, this facilitates the better discharge of sewage from the sludge collection bucket 7 through the second drain outlet 5.
[0044] Furthermore, it also includes support feet 6, and several support feet 6 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the heating pot 4.
[0045] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to make the device operate more stably.
[0046] Furthermore, it also includes a PLC controller, which is electrically connected to the heating pot 4 and the scum removal mechanism respectively.
[0047] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to adjust the parameters of the blanching device through the PLC controller, and makes it more convenient for operators to operate the blanching device.
