Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of steam oven technology, and in particular relates to a steam circulation rotary steam oven. Background Technology
[0002] Steaming is a cooking method that involves placing seasoned food ingredients in a container and then placing it in a steamer to cook them using steam. Steamers are commonly used in food processing plants to process food.
[0003] Existing steamers typically heat water at the bottom to generate steam, which then flows upward to cook the food. However, this method does not allow for steam circulation, resulting in less than ideal steam flow direction and flow, uneven heating of the food during processing, and thus requiring a longer steaming time, reducing the efficiency of food processing. Therefore, we propose a steam-circulating rotary steamer. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a steam-circulating rotary steamer. Specifically, during the steaming process, a fan inside the inlet is activated to draw steam in, which then enters the circulation pipe and flows into the circulation channel from the bottom end of the pipe. The steam is then discharged from several steam outlets on the partition, thus evenly distributing the steam to each food steamer basket, improving steam flow, and enabling the steam to circulate repeatedly from bottom to top, thereby increasing steaming efficiency. This solves the problem of existing steamers that typically heat water at the bottom to generate steam, which then flows upwards to cook the food. This method lacks steam circulation, resulting in less than ideal steam flow direction and flow, thus reducing food processing efficiency.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a steam circulating rotary steamer, including a steamer 1, a circulation pipe 11 fixedly connected to the top of the steamer 1, a slotted plate 12 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steamer 1, a plurality of slots being opened inside the slotted plate 12, a partition plate 13 fixedly connected to the top of the slotted plate 12, and the top of the partition plate 13 being fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the steamer 1.
[0027] A flow channel 15 is formed between the partition 13 and the steamer 1. Several steam outlets 132 are opened on the outer surface of the partition 13. A water tank 14 is formed between the bottom of the slotted plate 12 and the steamer 1. A suction port 111 is fixedly connected to one end of the top of the circulation pipe 11. A fan 112 is installed inside the suction port 111. One end of the back of the circulation pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the back of the steamer 1. By setting the flow channel 15, specifically, the fan 112 in the suction port 111 is activated during the steaming process to draw steam in from the suction port 111, so that the steam enters the circulation pipe 11 and enters the flow channel 15 from the bottom end of the circulation pipe 11. Then the steam is discharged from several steam outlets 132 on the partition 13, so that the steam is evenly distributed to each food steamer 4, making the steam flow better and enabling the steam to circulate back and forth from the bottom to the top, thereby improving the steaming efficiency.
[0028] Several support blocks 131 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the partition 13. The top of the support block 131 contacts the food steamer 4. A guide plate 121 is fixedly connected to the rear of the top of the slotted plate 12. The top of the guide plate 121 is fixedly connected to the surface of the partition 13. The support block 131 is used to support the food steamer 4, and the guide plate 121 is used to guide the water so that the generated water droplets and water flow can be guided into the water tank 14.
[0029] A water inlet pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the right side of the steamer 1, and a water outlet pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the front of the steamer 1. A valve is installed on the outside of the water outlet pipe 3. Both the water inlet pipe 2 and the water outlet pipe 3 are connected to the water tank 14. A pressure relief valve 5 is fixedly connected to the top right of the steamer 1. Water is transported to the water tank 14 through the water inlet pipe 2. When it is necessary to replace the water in the water tank 14, the valve on the water outlet pipe 3 is opened to allow the water to flow out.
[0030] The back of the food steamer 4 contacts a limiting strip 16. Two connecting blocks 161 are fixedly connected to the back of the limiting strip 16. The back of both connecting blocks 161 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steamer 1. By setting the limiting strip 16, the back of the food steamer 4 will contact the limiting strip 16 after it is placed. The limiting strip 16 is used to position the food steamer 4, so that there is a large gap between the food steamer 4 and the steamer 1, which facilitates the flow of steam, improves the flow effect of steam, and makes the food heat more evenly.
[0031] A heating rod 141 is installed inside the water tank 14. A baffle 142 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water tank 14. The top of the baffle 142 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slotted plate 12. An opening 122 is opened on the back of the slotted plate 12. The back of the baffle 142 is connected to the flow channel 15 through the opening 122. The circulation pipe 11 is connected to the flow channel 15. The baffle 142 is used to separate the steam so that the steam can be discharged smoothly from the opening 122.
[0032] The suction inlet 111 is located at the top of the inner wall of the steamer 1, and the flow channel 15 is U-shaped. There is a large gap between the food steamer 4 and the steamer 1 at both the front and back. The flow channel 15 can make the steam flow evenly, so that the steam can come into more even contact with the food when it is discharged from the steam outlet 132.
[0033] One specific application of this embodiment is:
[0034] In use, place the food steamer 4 containing food inside the steamer 1, ensuring the bottom of the food steamer 4 contacts the support block 131 for support. Simultaneously, the back of the food steamer 4 contacts the limiting strip 16, which positions the food steamer 4 and creates a larger gap between it and the steamer 1, facilitating steam flow and improving steam distribution for more even heating of the food. After placing the food steamer 4, close and seal the front door of the steamer 1. Water is then supplied to the water tank 14 via the water inlet pipe 2. The heating rod 141 heats the water to generate steam. The heating rod 141 works by utilizing the principle that when current passes through a resistance coil, collisions between electrons and atoms cause changes in electron energy levels, generating heat. The resulting steam is discharged upwards from the slots on the slotted plate 12. Simultaneously, the fan 112 inside the suction inlet 111 is activated to... Steam is drawn in through inlet 111, enters circulation pipe 11, and enters the back of baffle 142 from the bottom end of circulation pipe 11. It then enters flow channel 15 through opening 122 on the back of slotted plate 12. Subsequently, steam is discharged from several steam outlets 132 on baffle 13, thereby evenly distributing steam to each food steamer 4, improving steam flow, and enabling steam to circulate back and forth from bottom to top, improving steaming efficiency and reducing food processing time. Deflector plate 121 is used to guide the water droplets and water flow into water tank 14. During the steaming process, pressure relief valve 5 on top of steamer 1 is used to release the large air pressure generated inside, which serves a safety function. After steaming is completed, the door panel on the front of steamer 1 can be opened to remove food steamer 4. When it is necessary to change the water flow in water tank 14, the valve on water outlet pipe 3 can be opened to drain the water.
