This equipment is mainly used to make jerky, meat floss, and other similar products, extending the shelf life of meat while preserving its original flavor and nutritional components. Before drying frozen meat, a thawing supply device is typically used to thaw it, restoring its original texture as much as possible. This device raises the temperature of the frozen meat, melting the ice crystals and returning it to its pre-freezing state. Thawing reduces juice loss, preserves the meat's color, flavor, and nutritional components, thereby improving the overall quality of the meat and facilitating better drying processing.

[0003] In existing technologies, when thawing frozen meat using a thawing supply device, the frozen meat is usually placed directly on the wire rack of the thawing cabinet and thawed by heating. However, because the frozen meat is placed on the wire rack, it cannot make good and complete contact with the heat source, which may cause uneven heating during thawing. This makes it difficult to ensure the consistency of thawing and is not conducive to improving the quality and efficiency of thawing. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a frozen meat thawing supply device for a meat dryer is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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 protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 One embodiment provided by this utility model:

[0023] The heating fan 12 and motor 22 used in this application are products that can be purchased directly from the market. Their principles and connection methods are existing technologies well known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0024] A frozen meat thawing supply device for a meat dryer includes a cabinet, which includes a thawing cabinet 1. The surface of the thawing cabinet 1 is provided with a cabinet door 11. A heating fan 12 is installed inside the thawing cabinet 1. A support frame 13 is provided inside the thawing cabinet 1. A connecting frame 14 is provided inside the support frame 13. A wire mesh frame 15 is movably connected to the inside of the connecting frame 14. Frozen meat can be placed on the wire mesh frame 15. The heating fan 12 can thaw the frozen meat, which facilitates subsequent drying of the frozen meat. Blood generated during the thawing process will flow into the connecting frame 14 through the wire mesh frame 15 for collection, thereby preventing blood from contaminating the internal environment of the thawing cabinet 1.

[0025] A rotating mechanism is provided inside the defrosting cabinet 1. The rotating mechanism includes a first rotating rod 2, which is movably connected to the inside of the defrosting cabinet 1. A first conical tooth 21 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first rotating rod 2. A motor 22 is fixedly installed on the surface of the defrosting cabinet 1. A second rotating rod 23 is movably connected to the inside of the defrosting cabinet 1. A second conical tooth 24 is fixedly connected to the surface of the second rotating rod 23. A turntable 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the second rotating rod 23. A support frame 13 is fixedly connected to the surface of the turntable 25. By rotating the second rotating rod 23, the turntable 25 can be rotated, and the support frame 13 can rotate accordingly, causing the frozen meat to turn. This allows the frozen meat to come into more comprehensive contact with the hot airflow, ensuring the uniformity of defrosting and thus improving the defrosting effect and quality.

[0026] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism also includes a fixed block 26, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the defrosting cabinet 1. A rotating groove 27 is provided on the inner side of the fixed block 26, and the turntable 25 moves within the rotating groove 27. By opening the rotating groove 27, the turntable 25 can move within the rotating groove 27 when it rotates under the action of the second rotating rod 23, thereby making the rotation of the turntable 25 more stable and ensuring the overall stability of the rotation of the support frame 13.

[0027] Furthermore, the end of the first rotating rod 2 away from the first conical tooth 21 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 22, one end of the second rotating rod 23 is fixedly connected to the defrosting cabinet 1, and the other end of the second rotating rod 23 is fixedly connected to the turntable 25. Through the arrangement of the first conical tooth 21 and the second conical tooth 24, when the first conical tooth 21 rotates under the action of the first rotating rod 2, the second conical tooth 24 rotates accordingly, which can realize the transmission of the second rotating rod 23, thereby facilitating the second rotating rod 23 to drive the turntable 25 to rotate.

[0028] Furthermore, the surface of the connecting frame 14 is provided with an auxiliary mechanism, which includes a connecting plate 3. The connecting plate 3 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support frame 13. A sliding groove 31 is provided on the inner side of the connecting plate 3. A sliding plate 32 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting frame 14. A movable groove 33 is provided on the inner side of the connecting plate 3. A spring 34 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 33. A movable rod 35 is fixedly connected to the surface of the spring 34. A connecting block 36 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable rod 35. An insert rod 37 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the connecting block 36. A slot 38 is provided on the inner side of the sliding plate 32. The opening of the sliding groove 31 facilitates the sliding of the connecting frame 14 on the inner side of the sliding groove 31 via the sliding plate 32. By sliding the connecting frame 14 out, it is easy to remove the connecting frame 14, thereby facilitating the treatment of blood.

[0029] Furthermore, the slide plate 32 and the slide groove 31 are movably connected, one end of the spring 34 is fixedly connected to the movable groove 33, and the other end of the spring 34 is fixedly connected to the movable rod 35. Through the elastic properties of the spring 34, the movable rod 35 can be reset, which in turn allows the connecting block 36 to drive the insertion rod 37 to reset, making it easier for the insertion rod 37 and the slot 38 to be inserted.

[0030] Furthermore, the movable rod 35 is movable inside the movable slot 33, and the insertion rod 37 is movably connected to the connecting plate 3. By inserting and separating the insertion rod 37 and the slot 38, the sliding plate 32 can be limited and released, which facilitates fixing the connecting frame 14 and the connecting plate 3, or pulling out the connecting frame 14.

[0031] Working principle: During use, the motor 22 is electrically connected to an external power source. The operator starts the motor 22 by pressing the switch. The motor 22 drives the first rotating rod 2 to rotate. The first conical tooth 21 will rotate under the action of the first rotating rod 2. Then, the second conical tooth 24 will rotate under the action of the first conical tooth 21, and can drive the second rotating rod 23 to rotate. The turntable 25 will rotate under the action of the second rotating rod 23, so that the turntable 25 can move inside the rotating groove 27. Then, the support frame 13 drives the connecting frame 14 to rotate under the action of the turntable 25, so that the frozen meat on the wire mesh frame 15 can rotate, and can achieve full contact between the frozen meat and the hot airflow.

[0032] Pulling the connecting block 36 upwards allows the movable rod 35 to move within the movable groove 33 under the action of the connecting block 36. At this time, the spring 34 is in a stretched state, and the insertion rod 37 moves accordingly and separates from the slot 38, which can release the restriction on the slide plate 32. Then, pulling the connecting frame 14 allows the connecting frame 14 to slide within the slide groove 31 via the slide plate 32, thus allowing the connecting frame 14 to be pulled out. Then, the mesh frame 15 can be removed, allowing the blood in the connecting frame 14 to be cleaned. When it is necessary to install the connecting frame 14, slide the slide plate 32 into the slide groove 31, and then release the connecting block 36. The movable rod 35 will return to its original position under the rebound action of the spring 34, and then the connecting block 36 will drive the insertion rod 37 to return to its original position, thus allowing the insertion rod 37 to be inserted into the slot 38, thereby limiting the slide plate 32 and fixing the connecting frame 14.

[0033] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model in any way. Those skilled in the art can readily implement this utility model based on the accompanying drawings and the description above. However, any modifications, alterations, or variations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the utility model's technical solution, utilizing the disclosed technical content, are equivalent embodiments of this utility model. Furthermore, any equivalent changes, alterations, or variations made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model's technical solution.
