Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food thawing technology, and more specifically, to a frozen pork thawing device. Background Technology
[0002] Frozen pork, as a long-term storage meat product, plays a role in stabilizing market supply during periods of pork shortage or price fluctuations. Freezing technology extends the shelf life of pork, ensuring a sufficient supply of meat for consumers even during times of scarcity.
[0003] Thawed pork is easier to cook because its temperature is close to room temperature, making it easier to heat and cook thoroughly. This not only shortens cooking time but also reduces energy consumption.
[0004] In traditional techniques, frozen pork is often thawed by placing it in hot water and using heat transfer to thaw it. However, this method is slow and affects the cooking of the pork. Therefore, a frozen pork thawing device is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a frozen pork thawing device, which has the advantage of being able to thaw frozen pork more quickly.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a frozen pork thawing device, comprising a support frame, a water storage tank fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame, a thawing chamber fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water storage tank, a nozzle rotatably connected inside the thawing chamber, a limiting member fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame, the interior of the limiting member rotatably connected to the surface of the nozzle, a first motor fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame, a first pulley fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor, a second pulley fixedly connected to the surface of the nozzle, and a first belt drivingly connecting the second pulley and the first pulley.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: a tray is fixedly connected to the right side surface of the thawing chamber, a second motor is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the tray, a first fan is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor, a second fan is rotatably connected inside the right wall of the thawing chamber, a third pulley is fixedly connected to the right end of the second fan and the right end of the first fan, and a second belt is drivingly connected between the third pulleys.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface inside the water storage tank, and an electric heating tube is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the fixing plate. The lower part of the electric heating tube is fixedly connected to the upper surface inside the water storage tank.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: a water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the water storage tank, and a water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the lower part of the water storage tank.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: a water heater is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the thawing chamber, a U-shaped pipe is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water heater, the lower part of the water heater is fixedly connected to the upper end of the water inlet pipe, and the lower surface of the front end of the U-shaped pipe is rotatably connected to the inside of the spray head.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: a fixing frame is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the thawing chamber, and a stainless steel pipe is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the fixing frame.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: a water baffle is fixedly connected to the upper front surface of the thawing chamber, a chamber door is hinged to the left front surface of the thawing chamber, and a filter plate is detachably installed on the inner surface of the water storage chamber.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. This utility model uses the starting of a first motor to drive the rotation of a first pulley. Simultaneously, due to the transmission effect of the first belt, the second pulley fixedly connected to the surface of the nozzle rotates, causing the nozzle to rotate inside the limiting member. However, since the lower part of the nozzle has a water spray nozzle, the water sprayed from the nozzle can generate centrifugal force through the rotation of the nozzle, thereby making the spray coverage area wide and enabling frozen pork to be thawed more quickly.
[0015] 2. This utility model uses the rotation of the output shaft of the second motor to drive the first fan to rotate inside the right wall of the defrosting chamber. Then, through the cooperation of the third pulley and the second belt, the force of the first fan's rotation is transmitted to the second fan. Furthermore, since the electric heating tube evaporates water to form steam, the second fan and the first fan accelerate the flow of steam. This device uses the upper and lower parts of the frozen pork to accelerate the airflow, and due to the cooperation of steam, the defrosting speed of the frozen pork is faster.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model provides a frozen pork thawing device, including a support frame 1, a water storage tank 2 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 1, a thawing chamber 3 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water storage tank 2, a nozzle 4 rotatably connected inside the thawing chamber 3, a limiting member 5 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 1, the interior of the limiting member 5 rotatably connected to the surface of the nozzle 4, a first motor 6 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 1, a first pulley 7 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 6, a second pulley 8 fixedly connected to the surface of the nozzle 4, and a first belt 9 drivingly connecting the second pulley 8 and the first pulley 7.
[0025] When staff need to thaw frozen pork, they place the frozen pork on the upper surface of the stainless steel tube 23 and close the door 24. At this time, the first motor 6 is started. Due to the rotation of the output shaft of the first motor 6, the first pulley 7 is driven to rotate. At the same time, since the first pulley 7 and the second pulley 8 are connected by the first belt 9, the nozzle 4 is driven to rotate inside the limiting member 5. Since the nozzle 4 has a hole at the bottom, the hot water supplied from the water heater 20 is sprayed onto the surface of the frozen pork.
[0026] The thawing chamber 3 has a tray 10 fixedly connected to its right side surface, a second motor 11 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the tray 10, a first fan 12 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 11, a second fan 13 rotatably connected inside the right wall of the thawing chamber 3, a third pulley 14 fixedly connected to the right end of the second fan 13 and the right end of the first fan 12, and a second belt 15 drivingly connected between the third pulleys 14.
[0027] After the worker places the pork on the upper surface of the stainless steel tube 23, the second motor 11 is started. The support plate 10 provides support to the second motor 11, and the rotation of the output shaft of the second motor 11 drives the first fan 12 to rotate inside the right wall of the defrosting chamber 3. At the same time, it drives the third pulley 14 to rotate. However, due to the transmission action of the second belt 15, the second fan 13 is driven to rotate, and the electric heating tube 17 is turned on. The heat generated by the electric heating tube 17 evaporates the water inside the water storage tank 2 to form steam. The second fan 13 and the water storage tank 2 drive the airflow inside the defrosting chamber 3.
[0028] The upper surface of the water storage tank 2 is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 16, and the rear surface of the fixing plate 16 is fixedly connected to an electric heating tube 17. The lower part of the electric heating tube 17 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water storage tank 2.
[0029] The position of the heating element 17 is fixed by the fixing plate 16. The heating element 17 heats the water stored in the water storage tank 2, and then generates steam, which is sent into the interior of the defrosting chamber 3 through the filter plate 25.
[0030] The rear surface of the water storage tank 2 is fixedly connected to a water inlet pipe 18, and the lower part of the water storage tank 2 is fixedly connected to a water outlet pipe 19.
[0031] The design of the inlet pipe 18 sends water from the inside of the water heater 20 into the water storage tank 2. However, the design of the outlet pipe 19 is such that water sprayed from the nozzle 4 will enter the water storage tank 2 through the filter plate 25. Frozen pork has ice chips on its surface. If the water inside the water storage tank 2 is not cleaned for a long time, it will cause the thawed frozen pork to have an unpleasant smell.
[0032] The rear surface of the thawing chamber 3 is fixedly connected to a water heater 20, the upper surface of the water heater 20 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped pipe 21, the lower part of the water heater 20 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the water inlet pipe 18, and the lower front surface of the U-shaped pipe 21 is rotatably connected to the inside of the spray head 4.
[0033] Water is supplied to the interior of the water storage tank 2 by the water heater 20 in order to achieve water evaporation and form steam, thereby accelerating the thawing of frozen pork. However, the function of the U-shaped pipe 21 is to send the water inside the water heater 20 into the spray head 4 for easy hot water spraying.
[0034] The inner surface of the thawing chamber 3 is fixedly connected to a fixing frame 22, and the rear surface of the fixing frame 22 is fixedly connected to a stainless steel pipe 23.
[0035] The stainless steel pipes 23 are fixed by the fixing bracket 22. Since the stainless steel pipes 23 are made of stainless steel and there is a large distance between them, the steam has a larger contact area with the frozen pork, which is beneficial for the thawing of the frozen pork.
[0036] The thawing chamber 3 has a water baffle 26 fixedly connected to the upper front surface, a door 24 hinged to the left front surface of the thawing chamber 3, and a filter plate 25 detachably installed on the inner surface of the water storage chamber 2.
[0037] The door 24 can seal the air inside the thawing chamber 3, preventing steam leakage and thus ensuring a good thawing effect. However, the filter plate 25 is removable and can filter impurities that fall from the frozen pork, preventing impurities from entering the water storage chamber 2 and making the device difficult to clean. The baffle plate 26 prevents water sprayed from the nozzle 4 from flowing out through the gap in front of the door 24.
[0038] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:
[0039] When staff need to thaw frozen pork, they place the frozen pork on the upper surface of the stainless steel tube 23 and close the door 24. At this time, the first motor 6 is started. Due to the rotation of the output shaft of the first motor 6, the first pulley 7 is driven to rotate. At the same time, since the first pulley 7 and the second pulley 8 are connected by the first belt 9, the nozzle 4 is driven to rotate inside the limiting member 5. Since the nozzle 4 has a hole at the bottom, the hot water supplied from the water heater 20 is sprayed onto the surface of the frozen pork.
[0040] After the worker places the pork on the upper surface of the stainless steel tube 23, the second motor 11 is started. The support plate 10 provides support to the second motor 11, and the rotation of the output shaft of the second motor 11 drives the first fan 12 to rotate inside the right wall of the defrosting chamber 3. At the same time, it drives the third pulley 14 to rotate. However, due to the transmission action of the second belt 15, the second fan 13 is driven to rotate, and the electric heating tube 17 is turned on. The heat generated by the electric heating tube 17 evaporates the water inside the water storage tank 2 to form steam. The second fan 13 and the water storage tank 2 drive the airflow inside the defrosting chamber 3.
[0041] The position of the heating element 17 is fixed by the fixing plate 16. The heating element 17 heats the water stored in the water storage tank 2, and then generates steam, which is sent into the interior of the defrosting chamber 3 through the filter plate 25.
[0042] The design of the inlet pipe 18 sends water from the inside of the water heater 20 into the water storage tank 2. However, the design of the outlet pipe 19 is such that water sprayed from the nozzle 4 will enter the water storage tank 2 through the filter plate 25. Frozen pork has ice chips on its surface. If the water inside the water storage tank 2 is not cleaned for a long time, it will cause the thawed frozen pork to have an unpleasant smell.
[0043] Water is supplied to the interior of the water storage tank 2 by the water heater 20 in order to achieve water evaporation and form steam, thereby accelerating the thawing of frozen pork. However, the function of the U-shaped pipe 21 is to send the water inside the water heater 20 into the spray head 4 for easy hot water spraying.
[0044] The stainless steel pipes 23 are fixed by the fixing bracket 22. Since the stainless steel pipes 23 are made of stainless steel and there is a large distance between them, the steam has a larger contact area with the frozen pork, which is beneficial for the thawing of the frozen pork.
[0045] The door 24 can seal the air inside the thawing chamber 3, preventing steam leakage and thus ensuring a good thawing effect. However, the filter plate 25 is removable and can filter impurities that fall from the frozen pork, preventing impurities from entering the water storage chamber 2 and making the device difficult to clean. The baffle plate 26 prevents water sprayed from the nozzle 4 from flowing out through the gap in front of the door 24.
