[0002] The hair on the surface of pig's trotters not only carries a large number of bacteria, dirt and other microorganisms, but may also contain pollutants such as feed and feces. If the hair is not singed, these impurities will directly affect the hygiene of the pig's trotters and increase the risk of food contamination.
[0003] Singing off the hair from pig trotters is a crucial pre-treatment step in the slaughtering and processing of pig trotters. Its purpose is to quickly burn off the hair on the surface of the trotters using a high-temperature flame or electric heating element, while also removing some impurities and bacteria, ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the trotters. This process not only improves the efficiency of subsequent processing but also provides consumers with cleaner and safer ingredients.
[0004] Traditional singeing methods often involve manual operation using a flame gun. This process involves open flames, and improper use by operators may cause burns or fires, posing certain safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0034] This utility model proposes a pig trotter singeing device 100, aiming to provide a safer pig trotter singeing device 100. Figures 1 to 7 This is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of the pig trotter singeing device 100 of this utility model.
[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 This utility model proposes a pig hoof singeing device 100, including a housing 1, a high-frequency heating component 2, and a carrier 3. The housing 1 forms a cavity. The high-frequency heating component 2 is movably disposed on one side of the housing 1 in a vertical direction. The high-frequency heating component 2 includes a heating coil 21. The heating coil 21 encloses a heating space 211 with openings at both ends. The carrier 3 forms a heating cavity 31. The carrier 3 is at least partially located in the heating space 211 and can be heated by the heating coil 21.
[0036] This utility model provides a pig trotter singeing device 100, which includes a housing 1, a high-frequency heating component 2, and a carrier 3. The housing 1 has a cavity. The high-frequency heating component 2 is movably disposed on one side of the housing 1 in a vertical direction. The high-frequency heating component 2 includes a heating coil 21, which encloses a heating space 211 with openings at both ends. The carrier 3 has a heating cavity 31, and the carrier 3 is at least partially located in the heating space 211 and can be heated by the heating coil 21. By placing the pig trotter to be singed in the heating cavity 31 of the carrier 3 and controlling the heating coil 21 of the high-frequency heating component 2 to move vertically until the heating coil 21 is completely surrounded by the carrier 3, a rapidly changing strong magnetic field is generated around the heating coil 21, i.e., in the heating space 211, when a high-frequency current passes through the heating coil 21. When the carrier 3 is placed in the heating space 211, eddy currents (induced currents) are induced inside the carrier 3. As these eddies flow inside the carrier 3, they generate Joule heat, causing the carrier 3 to heat up rapidly and thus singe off the hair from the pig's trotters placed inside. This heating method is not only efficient and rapid, but also enables uniform heating, either locally or throughout the entire structure, and it does not produce open flames, greatly reducing safety hazards.
[0037] It should be noted that the carrier 3 can be made of metallic or non-metallic materials, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this. In one embodiment of this application, the carrier 3 is made of 304 stainless steel. 304 stainless steel has good high-temperature resistance and good thermal conductivity, and can remain stable during high-frequency heating without releasing harmful substances. In addition, the surface of stainless steel is smooth, easy to clean and disinfect, and can effectively prevent bacterial adhesion and cross-contamination. Therefore, in the pig trotter singeing device 100, using 304 stainless steel as the carrier 3 material can ensure food safety and hygiene, while meeting the technical requirements of high-frequency heating.
[0038] To improve the overall flexibility of the device and facilitate the removal of the carrier 3 from the heating coil 21, the heating coil 21 is designed to be movable in this application. Specifically, the high-frequency heating assembly 2 also includes a sliding seat 22 on which the heating coil 21 is disposed. The sliding seat 22 can move relative to the housing 1. For further details, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 1 The sliding seat 22 is provided with a guide rail 221 facing the housing 1, and the housing 1 is provided with a guide groove 11 on the side facing the carrier 3. The guide rail 221 and the guide groove 11 slide together to guide the sliding seat 22.
[0039] To achieve automated movement of the sliding seat 22, a motor 14 is provided on one side of the housing 1. The drive end of the motor 14 is connected to a screw 13 rotatably mounted on the housing 1, and the sliding seat 22 is screwed to the screw 13. For details, please refer to further documentation. Figure 3The screw 13 drive enables precise position control. Through the precise rotation of the motor 14, the movement distance and speed of the sliding seat 22 can be accurately controlled, thus achieving high-precision positioning. Secondly, the screw 13 drive system has high transmission efficiency and stability, maintaining stable performance during long-term operation and reducing wear and malfunctions. Furthermore, the screw 13 drive has a self-locking function; when the motor 14 stops running, the sliding seat 22 remains in its current position, preventing slippage due to external forces, thus improving system safety. Finally, the screw 13 drive has a simple structure, is easy to install and maintain, reducing equipment maintenance costs and operational difficulty. The screw 13 is installed within the mounting slot 12, providing protection and preventing operator body parts or clothing from being caught in the screw 13, thereby improving the overall safety of the device.
[0040] In the technical solution of this application, the carrier 3 is cylindrical in shape, with a hollow interior forming a heating cavity 31. The cylindrical structure can match the external shape of the pig's trotter, thus ensuring that all parts of the pig's trotter are heated evenly and sufficiently. To stably place the carrier 3, a platform 4 is provided on one side of the shell 1. For details, please refer to further reference. Figure 4 The platform 4 and the housing 1 are integrally molded, ensuring sufficient structural strength. The platform 4 has a base 41 for placing the carrier 3. The position directly above the base 41 corresponds to the heating space 211 enclosed by the heating coil 21. This ensures that when the carrier 3 is placed on the base 41, it remains within the heating space 211 during the descent of the heating coil 21, thus achieving proper positioning of the carrier 3. To prevent the carrier 3 from moving or tipping over during placement, the base 41 has multiple magnetic suction parts 411. Specifically, please refer to further details... Figure 4 Correspondingly, the bottom of the carrier 3 is set as an iron base, so that it can be attracted to the magnetic part 411, thereby fixing the carrier 3.
[0041] To ensure that the carrier 3 can be partially located within the heating space 211, the outer diameter of the carrier 3 is smaller than the inner diameter of the heating space 211. During the specific processing operation, the carrier 3 is first removed from the placement seat 41, and the pig trotter to be processed is placed in the heating chamber 31 of the carrier 3. Then, the carrier 3 containing the pig trotter is fixed on the placement seat 41, ensuring that it is placed correctly. The power switch 51 is turned on, and the high-frequency power supply 23 starts to work, generating a high-frequency current in the heating coil 21. The motor 14 also rotates, driving the screw 13 to rotate and driving the sliding seat 22 to descend until the heating coil 21 is placed on the outside of the carrier 3. The carrier 3 quickly generates a temperature rise and removes the hair on the surface of the pig trotter inside. After the hair is singed, the heating coil 21 rises with the movement of the sliding seat 22. After the carrier 3 cools down, the singed pig trotter inside can be removed by a robotic arm or manually, and the entire singeing process is completed. To achieve temperature control, this device is equipped with a gear switch 52, which has three gears: high, medium, and low, to regulate the temperature. By adjusting the output voltage and current of the high-frequency power supply 23, the power output of the heating coil 21 can be controlled, thereby adjusting the heating temperature.
[0042] To cool the high-frequency power supply 23, the present invention includes a cooling fan 15 positioned on the housing 1 relative to the high-frequency power supply 23. This effectively cools the power supply 23, offering several advantages. First, the cooling fan 15 uses forced convection to quickly dissipate the heat generated by the high-frequency power supply 23 during operation to the surrounding environment, significantly reducing the internal temperature of the power supply and ensuring stable operation within a safe temperature range, thus extending the equipment's lifespan. Second, the excellent heat dissipation improves the working efficiency of the high-frequency power supply 23, reducing power loss due to high temperatures and thereby enhancing the energy efficiency of the entire heating system. Furthermore, the use of the cooling fan 15 effectively prevents safety hazards caused by overheating, such as equipment failure, short circuits, or even fires, thereby improving the safety and reliability of equipment operation.

Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
