Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a box-type microwave sterilizer. Background Technology

[0002] Microwave sterilization and insecticidal treatment involves subjecting microorganisms in food to both the thermal and non-thermal effects of microwaves, causing mutations in their proteins and physiological substances. This results in delayed growth and development and eventual death of the microorganisms, thus achieving the purpose of food sterilization and preservation.

[0003] In existing technologies, microwave sterilization, compared to conventional technologies such as high temperature, drying, blanching, pasteurization, freezing, and preservatives, can better sterilize and preserve food. Microwave sterilization is generally carried out using microwave sterilizers, which are divided into conveyor belt microwave sterilizers for large-scale food processing and box-type microwave sterilizers for small-scale food processing. Existing box-type microwave sterilizers often use a rotating plate to rotate the food inside the sterilizer for sterilization. However, this method cannot effectively sterilize stacked food, or the sterilization efficiency is low. Therefore, we propose a box-type microwave sterilizer. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Compared to conventional technologies such as high temperature, drying, blanching, pasteurization, freezing, and preservatives, microwave sterilization can better sterilize and preserve food. Microwave sterilization is generally carried out using microwave sterilizers, which are divided into conveyor belt microwave sterilizers for large-scale food processing and box-type microwave sterilizers for small-scale food processing. Existing box-type microwave sterilizers often use a rotating disc to rotate the food inside the sterilizer for sterilization. However, this method is not suitable for sterilizing stacked food, or the sterilization efficiency is low.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A box-type microwave sterilizer includes a sterilizer body, a sterilization chamber is provided inside the sterilizer body near the center, and a rotating mechanism is fixedly connected inside the sterilization chamber near the bottom.

[0007] The rotating mechanism includes a food placement basket. A feeding plate is connected to the front of the food placement basket via a hinge. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to both sides of the food placement basket. Four hollow rotating plates are fixedly fixed at equal intervals around the rotating shaft and inside the food placement basket. A driven wheel is fixedly fixed to the outer side of the rotating shaft near the right side. A drive assembly is adapted and snapped onto the outer side of the driven wheel.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, ball bearings are symmetrically fixed to the outer periphery of the rotating shaft near both sides, and the ball bearings are fixed to the food placement basket.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the two ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to the inner sidewall of the sterilizer body.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, three spring locking tongues are fixedly connected at equal intervals at the bottom of the feeding plate, and a limit locking hole is fixedly connected to the front of the food placement basket near the bottom of the corresponding spring locking tongue, and the spring locking tongue is adapted to engage with the limit locking hole.

[0011] The technical effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that, by setting the spring locking tongue and the limiting locking hole, the spring locking tongue and the limiting locking hole can effectively limit the food placement basket and the feeding plate, so that the food will not leak out during the microwave process.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the driving component includes a drive motor fixedly connected to the bottom of the sterilizer body, a connecting shaft fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor, and one end of the connecting shaft being rotatably connected to the interior of the sterilizer body. A drive wheel is sleeved around the connecting shaft, a transmission belt is sleeved around the drive wheel, and the transmission belt is sleeved around the driven wheel.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the front of the sterilizer body is connected to a door via a hinge, and a handle is fixedly attached to the front of the door.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a touch screen is fixedly connected to the front of the sterilizer body near the top, and a control button is fixedly connected to the right side of the touch screen.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a microwave generator is fixedly connected to the inside of the sterilizer body near the top, a microwave transmission system is fixedly connected to the top of the microwave generator, and the microwave transmission system is connected to the sterilization chamber, and a temperature sensor is fixedly connected to the inside of the sterilization chamber near the top.

[0016] The technical effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that, through the setting of the microwave generator, the microwave generator can effectively convert electrical energy into microwaves, and the microwave transmission system can effectively transmit microwave energy to the inside of the sterilization chamber to sterilize the food.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] In this invention, the rotating mechanism effectively places and limits the food in the food placement basket and the feeding plate. Its openwork shape facilitates microwave sterilization. The driving component in the rotating mechanism effectively drives the driven wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft. The rotation of the shaft then drives the openwork rotating plate to rotate, effectively turning and flipping the food inside the food placement basket. This prevents the food from piling up and causing uneven microwave sterilization, thus significantly improving microwave sterilization efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Example

[0029] like Figure 1-4 As shown, ball bearings 3031 are symmetrically fixed to the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 303 near both sides. The ball bearings 3031 are fixed to the food storage basket 301, which can improve the strength and stability of the rotating shaft 303.

[0030] The two ends of the rotating shaft 303 are rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the sterilizer body 1, which can ensure the stability of the rotating shaft 303.

[0031] Three spring locking tongues 3021 are fixedly attached at equal intervals to the bottom of the feeding plate 302.
