Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pickling machine technology, and in particular to a pickling machine that separates meat and vegetables. Background Technology

[0002] A marinating machine, also known as a meat marinating machine, is an electrical appliance used for food processing. It is designed to penetrate seasonings and marinade into ingredients such as meat, fish, and vegetables, helping the ingredients absorb flavors faster and more evenly, thereby improving food quality and taste. The working principle of a marinating machine is mainly based on the mechanical roller principle. Through the rotation and massage action of the roller, the marinated meat is squeezed and kneaded against each other, thereby accelerating the penetration of seasonings into the ingredients.

[0003] Traditional pickling machines mostly use a single drum design, which cannot be used for pickling meat and vegetables separately when there is a need to pickle them. Moreover, the drum is mostly a fixed structure, which is inconvenient to clean. The flavor of meat and vegetables is easily retained in the pickled products. The flavor of meat and vegetables is easily affected. Meat usually has a strong fishy smell, which may be absorbed by vegetables during the pickling process. Vegetables have their own fragrance, which may be masked by the meat, ultimately affecting the flavor of the pickled products.

[0004] For example, when pickling radishes and beef, if they are not separated, the beef flavor will remain in the jar after the beef is pickled, which may cause the radishes to have a gamey beef smell. Conversely, if the radishes are pickled first, the beef may also be tainted by the raw and astringent taste of the radishes, thus affecting the final taste and flavor. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model discloses a meat and vegetable pickling machine that separates meat and vegetables, aiming to solve the technical problems of most pickling machines adopting a single drum design, which cannot separate meat and vegetables when there is a need for pickling. Moreover, most drums are fixed structures, which are inconvenient to clean. The flavor of meat and vegetables is easily retained in the pickled products, and the flavor of meat and vegetables is easily affected. Meat usually has a strong fishy smell, which may be absorbed by vegetables during the pickling process. Vegetables have their own fragrance, which may also be masked by the meat, ultimately affecting the flavor of the pickled products.

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

[0007] A meat and vegetable marinating machine, comprising a first and a second mixing tank, and further including:

[0008] A tumbling mechanism is used for rotating the first and second material buckets;

[0009] Auxiliary mechanism to improve the stability of the first and second material buckets;

[0010] The outer circumferential wall of the first material barrel is fitted with a limit ring, a fixed ring, a movable hoop, and a return spring. The outer circumferential wall of the first material barrel has several equally spaced annularly distributed grooves, and a sphere is provided inside the groove. The outer circumferential wall of the second material barrel has a slot. The inner walls of the first material barrel and the inner walls of the second material barrel are respectively provided with a first sealing cover and a second sealing cover. One end of the return spring is connected to one side of the outer wall of the fixed ring, and the other end of the return spring away from the fixed ring is connected to one side of the inner wall of the movable hoop.

[0011] The tumbling mechanism includes a frame, a housing and a fixing hoop are installed on the top outer wall of the frame, a motor is installed inside the housing, the output end of the motor is connected to a roller, a third sealing cover is provided on one side of the outer wall of the roller, and the outer circumference of the roller is connected to the inner circumference of the fixing hoop through a bearing.

[0012] In this design, by pushing the movable hoop, space is created for the sphere to move. The second container is then inserted into the first container, squeezing the sphere and causing it to move. After releasing the movable hoop, the return spring pushes it back to its original position, pushing the sphere into the slot and simultaneously restraining it, preventing further movement. This, combined with the slot, secures the second container. The first and second containers are then placed in the drum for tumbling and marinating. To remove them, the movable hoop is pushed again, pulling the second container and squeezing the sphere out of the slot. The lengths of the first and second containers can be selected according to requirements, and their quantities can be increased for flexible combinations. No food is placed in the drum, eliminating the need for washing. Meat and vegetables are kept separate to prevent cross-contamination of flavors, thus preserving the taste of the marinated products to a certain extent. Furthermore, the first and second containers can be removed for easy cleaning.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the auxiliary mechanism includes fixed grooves equidistantly spaced on the inner circumference of the roller, and a plurality of equally spaced annularly distributed protrusions are installed on the outer circumference of both the first and second material barrels, the shape and size of which correspond to the shape and size of the fixed grooves.

[0014] During the rotation of the drum, the first and second material barrels may slip, causing them to be unable to rotate with the drum. Therefore, a fixing groove is opened on the inner wall of the drum, and protrusions are added to the first and second material barrels. The protrusions fit into the fixing groove, thereby restricting the first and second material barrels and improving their stability.

[0015] As can be seen from the above, a meat and vegetable marinating machine includes a first mixing tank and a second mixing tank, and also includes:

[0016] A tumbling mechanism is used for rotating the first and second material buckets;

[0017] Auxiliary mechanism to improve the stability of the first and second material buckets;

[0018] The outer circumferential wall of the first material barrel is fitted with a limit ring, a fixed ring, a movable hoop, and a return spring. The outer circumferential wall of the first material barrel has several equally spaced annularly distributed grooves, and a sphere is provided inside the groove. The outer circumferential wall of the second material barrel has a slot. The inner walls of the first material barrel and the inner walls of the second material barrel are respectively provided with a first sealing cover and a second sealing cover. One end of the return spring is connected to one side of the outer wall of the fixed ring, and the other end of the return spring away from the fixed ring is connected to one side of the inner wall of the movable hoop.

[0019] The tumbling mechanism includes a frame, with a housing and a fixing hoop mounted on the top outer wall of the frame. A motor is housed inside the housing, and the output end of the motor is connected to a roller. A third sealing cover is provided on one side of the outer wall of the roller, and the outer circumference of the roller is connected to the inner circumference of the fixing hoop via a bearing. The meat and vegetable separation marinating machine provided by this utility model offers the advantages of easy cleaning and prevents flavor mixing between meat and vegetables.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] This utility model discloses a meat and vegetable separate pickling machine, which is mainly used in traditional pickling machines that mostly adopt a single drum design. When there is a need to pickle meat and vegetables, they cannot be pickled separately. Moreover, the drum is mostly a fixed structure, which is inconvenient to clean. The flavor of meat and vegetables is easily retained in the pickled products. The flavor of meat and vegetables is easily affected. Meat usually has a strong fishy smell. During the pickling process, this fishy smell may be absorbed by the vegetables, while the vegetables themselves have a fresh aroma, which may be masked by the meat, ultimately affecting the flavor of the pickled products.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 A meat and vegetable marinating machine, comprising a first mixing tank 6 and a second mixing tank 7, and further comprising:

[0030] A tumbling mechanism is used for rotating the first material bucket 6 and the second material bucket 7;

[0031] An auxiliary mechanism is used to improve the stability of the first material bucket 6 and the second material bucket 7;

[0032] The outer circumferential wall of the first material barrel 6 is fitted with a limiting ring 16, a fixing ring 15, a movable hoop 8, and a return spring 14. The outer circumferential wall of the first material barrel 6 has several equally spaced annularly distributed grooves 11. A ball 12 is provided inside the groove 11. The outer circumferential wall of the second material barrel 7 has a slot 18. The inner walls of the first material barrel 6 and the second material barrel 7 are respectively provided with a first sealing cover 13 and a second sealing cover 10. One end of the return spring 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the fixing ring 15, and the other end of the return spring 14 away from the fixing ring 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the movable hoop 8.

[0033] The tumbling mechanism includes a frame 1. A housing 2 and a fixing hoop 3 are fixedly installed on the top outer wall of the frame 1. A motor is fixedly installed inside the housing 2. A roller 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A third sealing cover 5 is provided on one side of the outer wall of the roller 4. The outer circumference of the roller 4 is connected to the inner circumference of the fixing hoop 3 through a bearing.

[0034] Among them, part of the inner circumference of the movable hoop 8 is in contact with the outer circumference of the first material barrel 6. The width of the inner circumference of the movable hoop 8 in contact with the outer wall of the first material barrel 6 is greater than the top diameter of the groove 11, and the minimum bottom diameter of the groove 11 is less than the diameter of the ball 12, so the ball 12 will not fall from the bottom of the groove 11.

[0035] The slot 18 is designed as an isosceles trapezoid to facilitate the entry and exit of the sphere 12.

[0036] It should be noted that the first material bucket 6 and the second material bucket 7 can produce various specifications and quantities, and can be freely combined according to usage requirements.

[0037] In practical use, meat and vegetable marinating ingredients are placed in the first container 6 and the second container 7 respectively. The first sealing cap 13 and the second sealing cap 10 are then closed. The movable hoop 8 is pulled to make room for the ball 12. The second container 7 is then inserted into the first container 6. The second container 7 squeezes the ball 12 to make it move. The movable hoop 8 is then released. Under the action of the return spring 14, the movable hoop 8 returns to its original position, pushing the ball 12 into the slot 18. At the same time, the ball 12 is restricted and cannot move. The slot 18 fixes the second container 7 in place. The first container 6 and the second container 7 are then placed into the drum 4. The third sealing cap 5 is closed. The motor drives the drum 4 to rotate, tumbling and marinating the ingredients. When it is necessary to remove them, the movable hoop 8 is pushed again, and the second container 7 is pulled to squeeze the ball 12 out of the slot 18, thus separating the first container 6 and the second container 7.

Several equally spaced annularly distributed protrusions 9 are fixedly installed on the outer circumference of the first material barrel 6 and the outer circumference of the second material barrel 7. The shape and size of the protrusions 9 correspond to the shape and size of the fixed grooves.

[0039] Specifically, the protrusion 9 is aligned with the fixing groove on the inner circumference of the roller 4, and then the first material barrel 6 and the second material barrel 7 are pushed into the roller 4. The protrusion 9 fits into the fixing groove, thereby restricting the first material barrel 6 and the second material barrel 7 and improving their stability.

[0040] Working principle: In use, place meat and vegetable marinating ingredients in the first container 6 and the second container 7 respectively. Cover with the first sealing cap 13 and the second sealing cap 10. Pull the movable hoop 8 to make room for the ball 12. Then insert the second container 7 into the first container 6. The second container 7 squeezes the ball 12 to move it. Then release the movable hoop 8. Under the action of the return spring 14, the movable hoop 8 returns to its original position and pushes the ball 12 into the slot 18. At the same time, the ball 12 is restricted and cannot move. The slot 18 fixes the second container 7. Align the protrusion 9 with the fixing groove on the inner circumference of the roller 4. Then push the first container 6 and the second container 7 into the roller 4. The protrusion 9 fits into the fixing groove, thereby restricting the first container 6 and the second container 7. Cover with the third sealing cap 5. The motor drives the roller 4 to rotate and tumble the marinating ingredients. When it is necessary to remove them, push the movable hoop 8 again and pull the second container 7 to squeeze the ball 12 out of the slot 18, thus separating the first container 6 and the second container 7.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
