[0002] Nuts can be processed in various ways to produce a variety of flavors, satisfying the needs of a wider range of people. Steaming is a common process in nut processing. However, in existing steaming equipment, the nuts are placed inside the equipment and in contact with the cooking liquid. The nuts remain stationary relative to the liquid, and the large number of nuts makes it difficult for the seasoning liquid to flow between the nuts, which can easily lead to uneven heating and uneven seasoning, thus failing to guarantee the quality and flavor of the steamed nuts. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the problems of uneven heating and seasoning in existing cooking equipment, where nuts remain stationary relative to the cooking liquid during cooking, and the large number of nuts makes it difficult for the seasoning liquid to flow between the nuts, thus compromising the quality and flavor of the cooked nuts, this invention provides a nut flavoring cooking device. Nuts are placed inside a rotating drum, which is continuously rotated by a drive motor. This constant rotation causes the nuts to tumble and the gaps between them to change. Nuts that were previously at the bottom and difficult to access the seasoning liquid are now rotated to the top, allowing them to fully contact the seasoning liquid and improving the uneven seasoning. Simultaneously, the continuous tumbling ensures even heating of all parts, preventing some nuts from overheating while others remain uncooked.

[0018] This utility model discloses a nut flavoring and steaming device, which mainly includes a support leg 1, a housing 2, a liquid tank 3, a heat insulation layer 4, an electric heating element 5, a rotating drum 6, a drive motor 7, a flip cover 8, a drain pipe 9, a controller 10, and a temperature sensor 11. The housing 2 is mounted on the top of the support leg 1, and the interior of the housing 2 is a cavity structure. The liquid tank 3 is installed inside the housing 2, and the heat insulation layer 4 is installed on the outer wall of the liquid tank 3, forming a cavity sandwich between the liquid tank 3 and the heat insulation layer 4. The electric heating element 5 is installed on... Inside the cavity interlayer, a rotating roller 6 for holding nuts is rotatably installed in the liquid tank 3. A drive motor 7 is installed inside the housing 2. The rotating roller 6 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 7 via a belt drive mechanism. A flip cover 8 is installed at the top of the housing 2. A drain pipe 9 is installed at the bottom of the liquid tank 3. A manual butterfly valve 91 is installed on the drain pipe 9. A controller 10 is installed on the side wall of the housing 2. A temperature sensor 11 is installed inside the liquid tank 3. The heating element 5, the drive motor 7, the temperature sensor 11, and the controller 10 are electrically connected.
[0019] like Figure 6 As shown, the rotating drum 6 is designed with a hexagonal prism structure; this design allows the nuts to tumble and mix more thoroughly inside the drum, thus ensuring that the nuts are heated evenly and have a better flavor when steamed or cooked.
[0020] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, the tilting roller 6 includes a connecting shaft 61, hexagonal mesh baffles 62, a connecting mesh plate 63, a buckle 64, a mesh door panel 65, and a handle 66. The connecting shaft 61 is rotatably installed in the liquid tank 3. Two hexagonal mesh baffles 62 are installed on the connecting shaft 61, the connecting mesh plate 63 is installed between the two hexagonal mesh baffles 62, the buckle 64 is installed on the hexagonal mesh baffles 62, the mesh door panel 65 is detachably installed between the hexagonal mesh baffles 62 via the buckle 64, and the handle 66 is installed on the connecting mesh plate 63. This modular design allows users to easily disassemble the various parts of the tilting roller 6 for convenient cleaning and maintenance, effectively avoiding sanitary dead corners and bacterial growth. The mesh door panel 65 is detachably installed between the hexagonal mesh baffles 62 via the buckle 64. This installation method is not only simple and quick, but also facilitates users to replace damaged parts, extending the service life of the device.
[0021] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, the chassis is equipped with a movable door 21 and a ventilation hole 22 on the side wall. The movable door 21 facilitates the operator to inspect and maintain the drive motor 7, while the ventilation hole 22 on the side wall ensures air circulation inside the chassis 2, avoiding odor and moisture problems caused by long-term steaming.
[0022] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, the flip cover 8 is provided with a transparent observation window 81, through which the operator can observe the processing of the nuts.
[0023] Work process:
[0024] First, the operator opens the flip cover 8, then grasps the handle 66 on the rotating drum 6 and removes the mesh door panel 65 from the hexagonal mesh baffle 62 using the clips 64. The nuts to be steamed and seasoned are placed inside the rotating drum 6. After placing the nuts, the mesh door panel 65 is reinstalled using the clips 64, restoring the original shape. An appropriate amount of seasoning liquid is added to the liquid tank 3. The amount of seasoning liquid needs to be determined based on the quantity and type of nuts, as well as the desired flavor concentration. After ensuring that the nuts have been placed in the rotating drum 6 and that the liquid tank 3 contains an appropriate amount of seasoning liquid, the flip cover 8 is closed. The operator then sets the required steaming temperature parameters using the controller 10 and connects the power supply to the equipment. The heating element 5 starts working. Since the heating element 5 is installed inside the cavity between the liquid tank 3 and the insulation layer 4, the heat generated by the heating element 5 is transferred to the liquid tank 3, thereby heating the seasoning liquid inside the liquid tank 3. The insulation layer 4 is installed on the outer wall of the liquid tank 3, which reduces heat loss and lowers production costs. At the same time, it can continuously provide a stable temperature environment for the steaming and cooking of nuts, which is conducive to improving the steaming and cooking quality of nuts. The temperature sensor 11 monitors the temperature inside the liquid tank 3 in real time and feeds the temperature signal back to the controller 10. The controller 10 adjusts the power of the heating element 5 according to the preset temperature requirements to ensure that the temperature inside the liquid tank 3 is stable within the set temperature range. Inside, a suitable and stable temperature environment is provided for steaming and cooking the nuts. When the temperature is too high, the controller 10 can promptly adjust the heating element 5 to stop heating or reduce its power. When the temperature is too low, it can promptly start heating or increase the power of the heating element 5. Through precise temperature control, steaming and cooking can be carried out at a suitable temperature, ensuring the quality of the nuts and helping to form an ideal flavor. During equipment operation, the drive motor 7 drives the rotating drum 6 to rotate through the belt drive mechanism. The rotation of the rotating drum 6 causes the nuts inside to continuously turn. When the nuts rotate to the top, they come into contact with the seasoning liquid through the mesh structure on the connecting mesh plate 63 and the hexagonal mesh baffle 62. When they rotate to the bottom, they come into contact with the seasoning liquid. The seasoning liquid is allowed to flow fully into the nuts, ensuring that every part of the nut is in full contact with the seasoning liquid. Each nut is heated relatively evenly during the turning process, so that the nuts can be evenly flavored and the steaming quality is guaranteed. When the nuts are steamed for the set time or flavor requirements, the controller 10 controls the electric heating tube 5 to stop heating and the drive motor 7 to stop working. Finally, the operator opens the manual butterfly valve 91 on the drain pipe 9 at the bottom of the liquid tank 3 to drain the seasoning liquid in the liquid tank 3. After draining the seasoning liquid, the flip cover 8 can be opened as needed to remove the steamed nuts from the turning drum 6. At this time, the nuts have been steamed and flavored and can be processed and packaged in subsequent processes.
[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made to it in form and detail without departing from the scope defined by the claims of this utility model.
