Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food preservation technology, and in particular to a food cooling device. Background Technology

[0002] Food cooling equipment is used to lower the temperature of food to a specific range. It mainly includes water chillers and air cooling devices. Air cooling devices are arranged in food cooling chambers or cooling tunnels. They use cold air delivered by a cold air blower to circulate between the food items, absorbing the heat from the food and thus cooling it. Common examples in daily life include refrigerators and freezers.

[0003] If the refrigerator door is frequently opened and closed during use, a large amount of hot and humid air will continuously enter the refrigerator, which can easily lead to condensation on the inner walls. For example, in some family gatherings, the refrigerator door is frequently opened and closed, allowing too much hot and humid air from the outside to enter the refrigerator, increasing the likelihood of condensation. Condensation provides a good humid environment for the growth of bacteria and mold. If it is not cleaned for a long time, bacteria and mold may multiply in large numbers inside the refrigerator, causing food to spoil. Secondly, excessive condensation will affect the refrigerator's cooling effect, causing uneven temperature distribution inside the refrigerator, raising the temperature in some areas, and increasing the refrigerator's power consumption. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a food cooling device that can easily remove condensate, addressing the aforementioned technical problems.

[0005] This utility model provides a food cooling device, comprising:

[0006] The casing has a slot inside for placing food.

[0007] Multiple partitions are installed inside the housing.

[0008] The slots are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the partition plate.

[0009] The wiping assembly, located inside the housing, consists of two sets, used to remove condensate generated on the inner walls of both sides of the housing.

[0010] In one embodiment, the wiping assembly includes fixed rods axially symmetrically arranged on both sides of the slot, the fixed rods movably passing through the slot, a movable plate movably sleeved on the outside of the fixed rods, a groove formed in the movable plate, an absorbent pad movably disposed in the groove, and one side of the absorbent pad movably abutting against the inner wall of the housing.

[0011] In one embodiment, the movable plate has multiple through holes, and a movable rod is movably disposed in each of the through holes. One end of the movable rod is fixedly connected to the side of the absorbent pad away from the inner wall of the housing, and a movable plate is fixedly disposed at the end of the movable rod away from the absorbent pad. The movable plate is located outside the movable plate.

[0012] In one embodiment, a limiting rod is fixedly provided at the end of the movable plate away from the moving plate, and a limiting plate is fixedly provided on the side of the housing located on the limiting rod. The limiting plate movably passes through the slot, and a vertical slot and an inclined slot are provided on the limiting plate. The vertical slot and the inclined slot are interconnected, and the limiting rod is slidably connected to the vertical slot and the inclined slot.

[0013] In one embodiment, the limiting plate is provided with a wave groove below the inclined groove, the wave groove is connected to the inclined groove, and the limiting rod is slidably connected to the wave groove.

[0014] In one embodiment, a water collection frame is axially symmetrically and movably installed inside the housing, and the water collection frame is located below the fixing rod.

[0015] In one embodiment, the partition plate has multiple transverse grooves.

[0016] The aforementioned food cooling device, through the cooperation of multiple components such as a movable plate, a fixed rod, a movable plate, and a moving rod, achieves the absorption of condensate by the absorbent pad and the discharge of condensate from the absorbent pad, ensuring the absorbent pad's adsorption effect on condensate; through the cooperation of a limiting rod, a limiting plate, an inclined groove, and a corrugated groove, the condensate in the absorbent pad can be squeezed out.

[0029] The following is combined with Figures 1-4 This invention describes a food cooling device.

[0030] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in one embodiment, it includes a housing 1, a partition 2, and a wiping assembly 3.

[0031] The partition 2 is located inside the housing 1 and is arranged in a linear array from top to bottom. The number of partitions is set to multiple. The placement slot 101 provides space for the installation of the partition 2, and the slot 21 provides space for the wiping assembly 3 to move up and down. The wiping assembly 3 can remove the condensate generated on the inner wall of the housing 1.

[0032] Specifically, the food to be cooled is placed on the partition 2 inside the shell 1. Multiple partitions 2 are provided to facilitate the classification and placement of food. The placement slot 101 provides storage space. During use, condensation will be generated on the inner walls on both sides of the shell 1, which needs to be cleaned in time. The conventional cleaning method is to remove the partition 2 and then wipe away the condensation with a towel, but the operation is relatively cumbersome. In this application, the wiping component 3 can be moved up and down along the slot 21 to remove the condensation attached to the inner wall, which is convenient and quick.

[0033] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the wiping assembly 3 includes a fixed rod 31 axially symmetrically arranged on both sides of the slot 21. The fixed rod 31 movably passes through the slot 21. A movable plate 32 is movably sleeved on the outside of the fixed rod 31. A groove 33 is opened in the movable plate 32. An absorbent pad 34 is movably arranged in the groove 33. One side of the absorbent pad 34 movably abuts against the inner wall of the housing 1.

[0034] Specifically, in the initial state, the moving plate 32 and the absorbent pad 34 are located in the upper part of the housing 1. When it is necessary to clean the condensate, the motor of the moving plate 32 is started. The moving plate 32 moves downward along the fixed rod 31, which drives the absorbent pad 34 to move downward through the slot 21. During the movement, the absorbent pad 34 contacts the inner wall of the housing 1 and can wipe away the condensate attached to the inner wall. In this step, the condensate attached to the inner wall of the housing 1 can be removed by the up and down movement of the wiping pad. The operation is convenient and quick.

[0035] See Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the movable plate 32 has multiple through holes 321, and a movable rod 4 is movably arranged in each through hole 321. One end of the movable rod 4 is fixedly connected to the side of the water-absorbing pad 34 away from the inner wall of the housing 1, and a movable plate 5 is fixedly arranged at the end of the movable rod 4 away from the water-absorbing pad 34. The movable plate 5 is located on the outside of the movable plate 32.

[0036] Specifically, as the movable plate 32 and the absorbent pad 34 move from top to bottom, the absorbent pad 34 can absorb the condensate adhering to the inner wall. When the absorbent pad 34 moves to a lower position of the housing 1, the movable plate 5 is pulled away from the inner wall of the housing 1 along the through hole 321. The movable plate 5 drives the movable rod 4 to move, and the absorbent pad 34 moves along the groove 33 and finally abuts against the inner wall of the groove 33. The absorbent pad 34 is made of flexible material. After the condensate comes into contact with the absorbent pad 34, it is sucked into the absorbent pad 34. Driven by the movement of the movable plate 5, the absorbent pad 34 will abut against the inner wall of the groove 33, causing the absorbent pad 34 to deform and squeeze out the condensate absorbed in the absorbent pad 34. This avoids the absorbent pad 34 becoming saturated after absorbing too much condensate, which would affect the subsequent adsorption effect of condensate.

[0037] See Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, a limiting rod 6 is fixedly installed at the end of the movable plate 5 away from the moving plate 32, and a limiting plate 7 is fixedly installed on the side of the housing 1 located on the limiting rod 6. The limiting plate 7 movably passes through the slot 21, and a vertical slot 71 and an inclined slot 72 are provided on the limiting plate 7. The vertical slot 71 and the inclined slot 72 are interconnected, and the limiting rod 6 is slidably connected to the vertical slot 71 and the inclined slot 72.

[0038] Specifically, as the moving plate 32 moves from top to bottom, it first drives the limiting rod 6 to slide along the vertical groove 71 opened in the limiting plate 7. During this process, the water-absorbing pad 34 remains stationary and abuts against the inner wall of the housing 1 to wipe away the condensate. When the moving plate 32 moves to the lower position of the housing 1, the limiting rod 6 will move from the vertical groove 71 to the inclined groove 72, thereby driving the limiting rod 6 and the moving plate 5 to move towards the limiting plate 7. The water-absorbing pad 34 also abuts against the inner wall of the groove 33 and deforms, thereby squeezing out the absorbed condensate.

[0039] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the limiting plate 7 is provided with a wave groove 73 below the inclined groove 72. The wave groove 73 is connected to the inclined groove 72, and the limiting rod 6 is slidably connected to the wave groove 73.

[0040] Specifically, as the limiting rod 6 moves along the inclined groove 72, the water-absorbing pad 34 deforms, squeezing out the condensed water absorbed inside. Then, the moving plate 32 continues to move downward, and the limiting rod 6 moves into the wave groove 73, thereby driving the movable plate 5, the moving rod 4, and the water-absorbing pad 34 to move laterally back and forth. This can further accelerate the discharge of condensed water from the water-absorbing pad 34.

[0041] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a water collection frame 8 is axially symmetrically and movably installed inside the housing 1, and the water collection frame 8 is located below the fixing rod 31.

[0042] Specifically, after the condensate is squeezed out, it falls into the water collection frame 8 for collection. After a period of time, the water collection frame 8 is removed, the condensate is poured out, and then the water collection frame 8 is reinstalled.

[0043] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the partition 2 has multiple horizontal grooves 22.

[0044] Specifically, the horizontal grooves 22 on the partition 2 can facilitate the rapid dissipation of heat from the bottom of the food, thus enhancing the cooling effect on the food.

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
