Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food supply machine technology, specifically to a food supply machine that can automatically heat food. Background Technology
[0002] The food supply machine is an advanced piece of equipment integrating automation, intelligence, and preservation technology, designed specifically to meet the needs of large-scale, high-efficiency food supply. It is widely used in various catering establishments, such as fast food restaurants, corporate and institutional canteens, and school cafeterias, significantly improving food supply efficiency and quality.
[0003] According to announcement number CN213128856U, a novel insulated display cabinet for fast food is disclosed. This technology discloses a "novel insulated display cabinet for fast food, including a cabinet body and a cabinet door. An air duct is connected to one side of the insulated chamber, and a one-way control valve is installed at the end of the air duct. A temperature and humidity sensor is connected to the other side of the insulated chamber. A water storage tank is set at the bottom of the insulated chamber, and an electric heater is connected to the end of the electric heating tube." It has the following technical effects: "It can extract air from multiple insulated chambers to form a vacuum environment, use electric heating water to keep the insulated chambers warm, and preheat the water to a high temperature to generate water vapor. When the one-way control valve is opened, the water vapor enters the insulated chamber through the air vent and the air duct, which can pre-humidify the insulated chamber. The humidification effect is purer, and the food preservation environment is better. The humidity in multiple insulated chambers can be adjusted by manually controlling multiple one-way control valves to adapt to the preservation of different food humidity levels."
[0004] Food is often placed on trays and then put into the display case for customers to browse and purchase. However, in order to improve the display effect, the trays often need to be tilted when placed into the display case. However, when the tray is designed to be flat and not deep enough, the tray will inevitably wobble slightly during the tilting process, which may cause the food inside to fall out.
