Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sausage cooling technology, and in particular to a cooling device for sausage processing. Background Technology

[0002] Red sausage is a sausage product with a rich history and unique flavor. After processing (steaming or smoking), it needs to be cooled by cooling equipment.

[0003] A search revealed that patent CN219976836U discloses a cooling device for sausage and ham production and processing; however, this device has the following shortcomings in use:

[0004] While water bath cooling can effectively reduce the temperature of sausages, it requires a large amount of water and energy, especially in large production lines, which increases production costs. In addition, it requires subsequent wastewater treatment, which is quite inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the fact that while water bath cooling can effectively reduce the temperature of sausages, it requires a large amount of water and energy, especially in large production lines, which increases production costs. Furthermore, it requires subsequent wastewater treatment, which is inconvenient. Therefore, this invention proposes a cooling device for sausage processing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A cooling device for processing red sausage includes a machine body. A water tank and a box are fixedly installed on the top two sides of the machine body, respectively. A door is hinged to one side of the box body. Support plates are fixedly installed on the inner walls of both sides of the box body. The same mesh plate for placing red sausage is placed on the two support plates. An exhaust pipe is fixedly installed on one side of the box body and is connected to it. A one-way valve is installed on the exhaust pipe. Universal wheels are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the machine body to facilitate the movement of the machine body.

[0008] The cooling mechanism, located on the machine body, is used to air-cool the sausage.

[0009] The hanging mechanism is installed inside the box and is used to hang the sausages.

[0010] In one possible design, the cooling mechanism includes a blower box, a fan, and a blower housing. A first circular hole is formed at the top of one side of the water tank, and a first pipe is welded into the first circular hole. A second circular hole is formed at the bottom of one side of the water tank, and a second pipe is welded to the inner wall of the second circular hole. One side of the blower box is fixedly connected to one side of the water tank. The air outlet of the fan is fixedly connected to and communicates with the top of the blower box. A pipe body is fixedly installed at the air inlet of the fan. One end of the second pipe is fixedly connected to and communicates with the bottom of the blower box. The first pipe and the second pipe are welded to the same coil at their adjacent ends. The top of the blower housing is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the housing. The other end of the first pipe passes through one side of the housing and is fixedly connected to one side of the blower housing. The first pipe communicates with the blower housing. Multiple blow holes are formed at the bottom of the blower housing. The water tank contains water and ice.

[0011] In one possible design, the hanging mechanism includes three hanging rods, and three placement slots are provided on each of the two support plates. The two ends of the hanging rods are respectively placed in the placement slots of the two support plates.

[0012] In one possible design, a second mounting plate is fixedly installed on one side of the door body, and a first mounting plate is fixedly installed on one side of the box body. The first mounting plate has a threaded hole, and the second mounting plate has a third circular hole. A threaded rod passes through the third circular hole. One end of the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the first mounting plate, and the other end of the threaded rod is welded with a handwheel to facilitate the rotation of the threaded rod.

[0013] In one possible design, a filter screen is fixed to one end of the tube by screws.

[0014] In one possible design, the top of the water tank has an opening for adding water and ice, the top of the water tank is hinged to a cover, the top of the cover is fixedly provided with a handle, and a drain pipe is fixedly provided on one side of the water tank and connected to it, with a valve installed on the drain pipe.

[0015] In one possible design, the bottom inner wall of the box is fitted with a container for collecting water droplets dripping from the sausage.

[0016] In this application, during use, open the top cover of the water tank, add an appropriate amount of ice and water, prepare the sausages to be cooled, and hang the sausages on the hanging mechanism (hanging rod) or place them on the mesh plate as needed. Note that when the sausages are hung on the hanging rod for cooling, the mesh plate needs to be removed. After hanging the sausages on the hanging rod, close the door, turn the handwheel. The rotation of the handwheel drives the rotation of the threaded rod, causing the threaded rod to connect with the threaded hole of the first mounting plate, thus fixing the door. Start the fan. The fan draws in external air through the pipe, filters it through the filter screen, and then enters the blower box. The air in the blower box is cooled (the second pipe transfers the temperature of the cold water (containing ice) in the water tank to the coil for heat exchange and cooling; the coil is made of copper). The cooled air enters the blower box through the first pipe, and... The airflow blows through multiple holes at the bottom of the blower box, effectively cooling the sausages inside. The airflow is then exhausted through the exhaust pipe, which has a one-way valve that only allows air to flow out. During the cooling process, water droplets may form on the surface of the sausages. These droplets are collected by a box on the inner wall of the bottom of the box. This air-cooling method effectively saves water resources and reduces production costs. Meanwhile, the water in the tank can be drained through the drain pipe and used to make ice cubes in a refrigerator for recycling, eliminating the need for wastewater treatment. The included hanging rod and tray allow for both hanging and placing the sausages, enhancing its practicality. The blower requires an external controller for operation, and the filter material can be selected according to actual needs.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] In this utility model, a cooling device for processing red sausages is described. Through a cooling mechanism, a fan draws in external air through a pipe, filters it through a filter screen, and then enters a blower box. The air inside the blower box is cooled (a second pipe transfers the temperature of the cold water (containing ice) in the water tank to the coil for heat exchange and cooling; the coil is made of copper). The cooled air enters the blower box through a first pipe and is blown out from multiple blow holes at the bottom of the blower box, thereby air-cooling the red sausages inside the box.

[0019] In this utility model, the cooling device for processing red sausage can both hang and place red sausages through a hanging mechanism, with a hanging rod and a placement tray, thus improving its practicality.

[0020] In this invention, the sausages inside the box can be air-cooled by a cooling mechanism, which effectively saves water resources and reduces production costs. At the same time, the water in the tank can be drained through a drain pipe and can be taken to a refrigerator to be refrigerated into ice cubes for recycling, without generating wastewater and eliminating the need for wastewater treatment. The sausages can be hung and placed by the hanging mechanism and the placement tray, serving two purposes and improving practicality. Attached Figure Description
