Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a cooling platform, specifically a cooling platform for food processing, and belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] A food processing cooling table is a type of food processing equipment that rapidly cools food to inhibit bacterial growth, especially for foods prone to bacterial proliferation such as cooked meat. Rapid cooling effectively suppresses bacterial growth, ensuring food safety by significantly reducing cooling time and minimizing the opportunity for bacterial growth. Maintaining food quality is also crucial for foods requiring cooling, such as vegetables, fruits, baked goods, and seafood. Rapid cooling preserves their freshness, texture, and nutritional value. Furthermore, cooled food prevents shrinkage and collapse during vacuum packaging, and vacuum-cooled vegetables and fruits extend their shelf life.
[0003] Most existing cooling tables for food processing are desktop platforms that use exhaust fans to accelerate the dissipation of heat from the food. While this structure can quickly cool the food, the food needs to be moved back and forth after cooling, removing the cooled food and then placing the still-warm food on top, which reduces the efficiency of cooling the food. Therefore, we provide a cooling table for food processing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a cooling platform for food processing. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0005] A cooling table for food processing includes a support platform and a turntable. A track is installed above the support platform.

A power mechanism is provided below the turntable. A support frame is connected to the upper surface of the turntable. An isolation cover is connected to the upper surface of the support platform. A set of second slides is connected to both sides of the isolation cover. A baffle is slidably connected to the inner wall of the second slide. A flow-concentrating hood is connected to the upper surface of the isolation cover. An exhaust fan is installed inside the flow-concentrating hood. Ventilation holes are opened on the inner side of the isolation cover. A third slide is connected to the outer surface of the isolation cover. A filter screen is detachably connected to the inner wall of the third slide, and the filter screen is opposite to the ventilation holes.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. This food processing cooling table, through the cooperation of a turntable, support frame, isolation hood, and exhaust fan, creates an independent space for food through the isolation hood, improving the hygienic environment during food cooling and processing.

[0021] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-5 A cooling table for food processing includes a support platform 1 and a turntable 2. A track 3 is installed on the top of the support platform 1. A first slide 4 is connected to the lower surface of the turntable 2. The inner wall of the first slide 4 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the track 3. The track 3 guides and supports the first slide 4, thereby improving the stability of the turntable 2 when rotating.
[0023] The upper surface of the turntable 2 is connected to a support frame 6. There are four support frames 6 arranged in a circular array. The support frames 6 provide support for the food, maintain the stability of the food, and at the same time create space between the food and the turntable 2, allowing air to pass through the bottom of the food and making the air contact the food evenly, thereby increasing the cooling speed of the food.
[0024] The upper surface of the support platform 1 is connected to an isolation cover 7, which wraps the food inside the isolation cover 7, causing airflow to gather inside the isolation cover 7 and increasing the cooling speed of the food.
[0025] Both sides of the isolation cover 7 are connected to a set of second slide rails 8. The inner wall of the second slide rail 8 is slidably connected to a baffle 9. The second slide rail 8 wraps around the baffle 9, maintaining the stability of the baffle 9 when it moves up and down. The baffle 9 closes and opens the entrances and exits at both ends of the isolation cover 7, and the closure makes the interior of the isolation cover 7 an independent space.
[0026] The upper surface of the isolation cover 7 is connected to a flow-concentrating cover 10. An exhaust fan 11 is installed inside the flow-concentrating cover 10 to guide the airflow. There are multiple exhaust fans 11, and the multiple exhaust fans 11 are arrayed at equal distances. The exhaust fans 11 are used as a power source to drive the airflow, draw out the air inside the isolation cover 7, accelerate the airflow, and quickly cool down the food inside the isolation cover 7.
[0027] Ventilation holes 12 are provided on the inner side of the isolation cover 7. A third slide 13 is connected to the outer surface of the isolation cover 7. A filter screen 14 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the third slide 13, and the filter screen 14 is opposite to the ventilation holes 12. External air enters the interior of the isolation cover 7 through the ventilation holes 12, and the filter screen 14 filters the air entering the interior of the isolation cover 7, thereby improving the air quality inside the isolation cover 7.
[0028] Four sets of sealing gaskets 15 are connected to the upper surface of the turntable 2. Each set of sealing gaskets 15 consists of two gaskets. One end of the baffle 9 is in contact with one set of sealing gaskets 15. The contact between the sealing gaskets 15 and the baffle 9 increases the sealing performance of the baffle 9 and prevents air that has not been filtered by the filter screen 14 from entering the interior of the isolation cover 7.
[0029] An electric push rod 16 is installed on the upper surface of the isolation cover 7, and a guide rod 17 is connected to the upper surface of the baffle 9. A connecting plate 18 is connected to the top of the guide rod 17, and the lower surface of the connecting plate 18 is connected to the output end of the electric push rod 16. The electric push rod 16 provides power for the baffle 9 to move up and down. After the food on the support frame 6 has cooled, the turntable 2 rotates to move the support frame 6 out of the isolation cover 7. The baffle 9 is moved to contact the obstruction of the isolation cover 7. The baffle 9 receives power through the guide rod 17, and the electric push rod 16 transmits power to the guide rod 17 through the connecting plate 18.
[0030] A power mechanism 5 is provided below the turntable 2 to provide power for the rotation of the turntable 2. The power mechanism 5 includes a motor 501, which is installed inside the support platform 1. The output shaft of the motor 501 is connected to a gear 502. The motor 501 serves as the power source to provide power for the rotation of the gear 502. A gear ring 503 is connected to the lower surface of the turntable 2. The gear ring 503 meshes with the gear 502. The turntable 2 receives power through the gear ring 503. When the gear 502 rotates, it drives the gear ring 503 to rotate simultaneously. The gear ring 503 pushes the turntable 2 to rotate. After the turntable 2 rotates, it can continuously drive the support frame 6 to move its position. After one support frame 6 moves out of the isolation cover 7, the rotation of the turntable 2 sends another support frame 6 into the isolation cover 7.
[0031] In use, the food is first placed on the support frame 6. Then, the motor 501 is started, driving the gear 502 to rotate. The gear 502 rotates, driving the gear ring 503 to rotate simultaneously. The gear ring 503 simultaneously drives the turntable 2 to rotate. After the turntable 2 rotates, the food moves into the isolation cover 7. Then, the rotation stops. The electric push rod 16 is started, driving the connecting plate 18 to move downward. The connecting plate 18 simultaneously drives the baffle 9 to move downward through the guide rod 17. Then, the baffle 9 contacts the sealing gasket 15. Finally, the exhaust fan 11 is started, driving the food inside the isolation cover 7 to move downward. The air flows outward, and when the flowing air comes into contact with the food, it carries away the heat from the food. After the air inside the isolation chamber 7 flows outward, a negative pressure is generated inside the isolation chamber 7. At the same time, the outside air enters the isolation chamber 7 through the filter screen 14. After the food inside the isolation chamber 7 is cooled down, the baffle 9 is moved to open the entrance and exit of the isolation chamber 7. Then the turntable 2 is rotated again to remove the food inside the isolation chamber 7. At the same time, the food outside the isolation chamber 7 is sent into the isolation chamber 7. The cycle is repeated to send the food into the isolation chamber 7 in sequence for cooling down.
