Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of meat product manufacturing technology, specifically to a meat product salt reduction and preservation device. Background Technology
[0002] With social development and changes in lifestyle, excessive salt intake has become a serious threat to human health, and reducing salt intake has become a consensus. One of the main measures for reducing salt intake is controlling the amount of salt added to processed foods, with meat products being the primary target for salt reduction. Current technologies for reducing salt in meat products include: 1) directly reducing the amount of salt added and supplementing it with process improvements, or optimizing the physical form of salt to maintain its original salinity as much as possible after salt reduction; 2) replacing the seasoning and quality-improving functions of salt with non-sodium salts such as potassium salts; 3) replacing the flavor-improving, aroma-enhancing, or antioxidant functions of salt with plant extracts, flavor enhancers, or masking agents; and 4) applying emerging physical technologies to compensate for the potential loss of processing or functional properties due to salt reduction.
[0003] While salt reduction treatment itself helps inhibit microbial growth, incomplete cleaning of the equipment during the process can introduce new sources of microbial contamination. Furthermore, some salt reduction and preservation treatment devices may employ chemical methods, such as using food-grade chemical additives to assist in salt reduction. However, in practice, inadequate cleaning of the equipment can lead to excessive chemical residues in the meat, failing to meet food safety standards and potentially posing a threat to consumer health, causing consumer concern and a crisis of trust. Therefore, we propose a meat salt reduction and preservation treatment device. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0021] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a meat desalting and preservation treatment device, including a treatment box 100 and a support base 200. The treatment box 100 is disposed above the support base 200 and rotates with it. Considering that although desalting treatment itself helps inhibit microbial growth, if the device is not thoroughly cleaned during the treatment process, new sources of microbial contamination may be introduced. Furthermore, some desalting and preservation treatment devices may employ chemical methods, such as using certain food-grade chemical additives to assist in desalting. However, in actual operation, if the device is not thoroughly cleaned, it may lead to excessive residues of chemical substances in the meat, which not only fails to meet food safety standards but may also pose a potential threat to consumer health, causing consumer concern and a crisis of trust. Therefore, specifically: a sealing cover 101 is provided at one end of the treatment box 100. A cleaning component 300 is installed inside the sealing cover 101, and an auxiliary component 400 is installed inside the cleaning component 300, wherein:
[0022] The cleaning component 300 is used to clean the residues adhering to the inner wall of the processing tank 100, and the auxiliary component 400 is used to assist the cleaning component 300 in further cleaning the residues adhering to the inner wall of the processing tank 100.
[0023] The improvement in this embodiment is as follows:
[0024] Through the coordinated operation of the cleaning component 300 and the auxiliary component 400, the residues on the inner wall and bottom of the processing tank 100 can be thoroughly and deeply cleaned. This effectively removes residues of different locations and forms, ensuring the cleanliness of the inside of the processing tank 100, preventing residues from affecting subsequent meat processing, improving meat quality, preventing the growth of bacteria and other harmful substances from residues, and ensuring the hygiene of the processing environment. This helps to ensure the safety of meat products during the salt reduction and preservation process, meeting food safety standards.
[0025] First, in order to perform preliminary cleaning of the residues adhering to the inside of the processing box 100, a drive motor 1010 is installed at the center of the surface of the sealing cover 101. The cleaning assembly 300 includes a support rod 301 and a scraper 302. The output end of the drive motor 1010 is connected to the support rod 301. The scraper 302 is set as an L-shaped plate structure. The outer wall of the scraper 302 is respectively attached to the inner wall and bottom surface of the processing box 100. The end of the support rod 301 is connected to the top of the scraper 302. The drive motor 1010 provides power to the cleaning assembly 300. The support rod 301 starts to rotate under the drive of the drive motor 1010, which drives the L-shaped scraper 302 to scrape around the inner wall and bottom surface of the processing box 100, scraping off larger pieces of residue and performing preliminary cleaning.
[0026] Secondly, considering that the cleaning may involve rotation in the same direction, the residues adhering to the inside of the treatment box 100 may not be completely scraped off. Therefore, a track groove 3020 is provided on the side wall of the scraper 302. The auxiliary component 400 includes a ball screw 401 and a slider 402. The slider 402 moves linearly by the rolling of the balls between the ball screw 401 and the screw nut inside the slider 402. The ball screw 401 is rotatably connected to the track groove 3020. Cleaning blocks 4020 are installed on both sides of the slider 402. The outer wall of the cleaning block 4020 is in contact with the inner wall of the treatment box 100. A groove 3010 is provided at the end of the support rod 301. An active motor 3011 is installed inside the groove 3010. The output end of the active motor 3011 is connected to the ball screw 401. By starting the active motor 3011, the ball screw 401 is driven to rotate. Because the ball screw 401 is rotatably connected to the track groove 3020 and has a rolling ball engagement with the screw nut inside the slider 402, the slider 402 moves linearly along the track groove 3020 under the action of the ball screw 401. The cleaning blocks 4020 on both sides of the slider 402 then reciprocate against the inner wall of the processing box 100, further cleaning the inner wall of the processing box 100 and thoroughly removing smaller particles and difficult-to-clean residues.
[0027] In addition, to ensure that the salt reduction and preservation treatment liquid comes into full contact with the meat and that the salt reduction and preservation treatment is carried out uniformly, a driven gear 102 is installed on the outer wall of the bottom of the treatment box 100, and a driven motor 201 is installed inside the support base 200. A driving gear 2010 is installed at the output end of the driven motor 201. The driving gear 2010 meshes with the driven gear 102. By starting the driven motor 201, the treatment box 100 rotates continuously under the drive of the driven motor 201, using the meshing transmission of the driving gear 2010 and the driven gear 102. This causes the meat to tumble and mix continuously inside the treatment box 100, making full contact with the salt reduction and preservation treatment liquid and ensuring that the salt reduction and preservation treatment is carried out uniformly.
[0028] In practical use, the meat desalting and preservation device of this utility model continuously rotates the processing tank 100 under the drive of the driven motor 201, through the meshing transmission of the driving gear 2010 and the driven gear 102. This causes the meat to continuously tumble and mix within the processing tank 100, ensuring full contact with the desalting and preservation liquid and guaranteeing uniform desalting and preservation treatment. After completing one meat desalting and preservation treatment, if a thorough cleaning of the processing tank 100 is desired to prevent residue adhesion, the drive motor 1010 is turned on. The drive motor 1010 provides power to the cleaning component 300, and the support rod 301 begins to rotate under the drive of the drive motor 1010. This drives the L-shaped scraper 302 to scrape around the inner wall and bottom surface of the processing tank 100, scraping off larger pieces of residue for initial cleaning. Simultaneously with the initial cleaning, the driving motor 3011 starts, driving the ball screw 401 to rotate. Because the ball screw 401 is rotatably connected to the track groove 3020 and has a rolling ball engagement with the screw nut inside the slider 402, the slider 402 moves linearly along the track groove 3020 under the action of the ball screw 401. The cleaning blocks 4020 on both sides of the slider 402 then reciprocate against the inner wall of the processing box 100, further cleaning the inner wall of the processing box 100 and thoroughly removing smaller particles and difficult-to-clean residues.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
