Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of edible oil testing, specifically to a hot oil testing instrument. Background Technology

[0002] Edible oil, also known as cooking oil, is usually extracted from animal fat or plant seeds and fruits. Edible oil plays an important role in food processing. Fried foods are a popular food, and in order to control costs when cooking fried foods, the edible oil needs to be used to fry several batches of ingredients. In order to ensure the flavor and quality of the finished product, the edible oil used needs to be tested.

[0003] Currently, there is a fuel testing device that includes a base, a lifting cylinder, a screw assembly, a suction pipe, and a testing platform. The suction pipe is driven by the lifting cylinder and screw assembly to sample the fuel. The suction pipe is then lowered by the lifting cylinder and screw assembly to transfer the fuel to the testing platform for testing. However, in actual use, to ensure testing efficiency, fuel sampling and testing are often performed before the fuel has cooled down. In this case, the fuel suction pipe, which is at room temperature, is prone to splashing when it enters the hot fuel, which can affect the hygiene of the cooking environment and pose a safety threat to personnel near the device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing a hot oil detection instrument that solves the problem of oil splashing affecting hygiene and safety during the detection process.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A hot oil testing instrument includes: a base; a fixed rod, one end of which is disposed on the base and the other end of which is fixedly fitted with a universal ball; a universal seat, which is nested within the universal ball; a connecting rod assembly, one end of which is disposed on the outer circumferential surface of the universal seat; a probe, which is disposed at the end of the connecting rod assembly away from the universal seat and whose position is adjusted by the connecting rod assembly; a main unit, which is disposed on the fixed rod and communicates with the probe; and an oil-proof cover, which is disposed on the connecting rod assembly and the probe is located below the oil-proof cover.

[0007] Preferably, the linkage assembly includes several connecting rods, which are connected end to end and rotate relative to each other.

[0008] Preferably, a wire hole is provided on the side of the connecting rod away from the universal joint, and the wire hole extends to one end of the connecting rod along its length. The wire hole is used to arrange the probe's wiring.

[0009] Preferably, the probe is suspended below the connecting rod via its own wiring, and the probe is fitted with a counterweight.

[0010] Preferably, each connecting rod has a wire fastener on its outer circumferential surface for arranging the probe's wiring.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom edge of the oil shield is rolled inward to form an oil collection groove.

[0012] Preferably, the inner wall of the oil shield is provided with several guide ridges, one end of which extends into the oil collection groove.

[0013] Preferably, the universal joint is provided with a fixing component, which is used to fix the universal joint to the position of the universal ball.

[0014] Preferably, a handle is fixedly provided on the outer peripheral surface of the universal joint.

[0015] Preferably, the oil shield is shaped to be narrower at the top and wider at the bottom, and the connecting rod assembly passes through the top of the oil shield.

[0016] In summary, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. When it is inconvenient to wait for the oil to cool down, the operator can rotate the universal joint by holding the lever, thereby moving the connecting rod assembly and probe closer to the oil. During the process of the probe entering the oil, the oil shield seals the oil pot. At this time, even if the probe at room temperature encounters the hot oil and splashes oil, the oil shield can block the oil droplets.

[0018] 2. The inclusion of several connecting rods allows operators to easily adjust the probe to the appropriate position via the connecting assembly, facilitating the probe's detection of the oil.

[0019] 3. The probe is suspended below one of the connecting rods by its own circuit. By releasing the probe's own circuit downwards, the probe can adapt to oil with different liquid levels. The probe is equipped with a counterweight to help it cope with the buoyancy of the oil, thereby ensuring that the probe is in full contact with the oil.

[0020] 4. The design of the oil shield, which is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom, is easy to adapt to containers of different sizes. After oil splashes onto the inner wall of the oil shield, the guide ridges facilitate the oil to slide down, while the oil collection tank helps to catch the sliding oil, thus helping to ensure environmental hygiene.

The embodiments of this utility model will now be described based on its overall structure.

[0032] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a hot oil testing instrument, including: a base 1, a fixing rod 2, a universal seat 3, a connecting rod assembly, a probe 4, a main unit 5, and an oil-proof cover 6; in this embodiment, the base 1 includes two clamping plates 11, which are fixed to each other by bolts, and can be clamped to the edge of the table or a suitable position during installation.

[0033] A fixing rod 2 is vertically installed on the top of one of the clamping plates 11. A universal ball 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing rod 2. In this embodiment, both the fixing rod 2 and the universal ball 21 are made of stainless steel and are welded together. A universal seat 3 is nested on the outer circumference of the universal ball 21 so that the universal seat 3 can adjust its installation position on the universal ball 21. The universal seat 3 is fixed to the position of the universal ball 21 by a fastener. In this embodiment, the fastener is a fixing bolt 7. The fixing bolt 7 is threaded onto the universal seat 3 and passes through the inside of the universal seat 3. One end of the fixing bolt 7 is pressed against the universal ball 21. A handle 31 is fixedly installed on one side of the universal seat 3 so that the operator can loosen the fixing bolt 7 and change the position of the universal seat 3.

[0034] The linkage assembly includes several connecting rods 8. In this embodiment, the number of connecting rods 8 is set to three. Each connecting rod 8 is connected end to end and rotates relative to each other. A wing nut is provided between two adjacent connecting rods 8. The wing nut passes through the overlapping position of two adjacent connecting rods 8 and fixes the two connecting rods 8 in place by a nut that mates with its own thread. One end of one connecting rod 8 is fixedly set on one side of the universal seat 3. For ease of installation, the connecting rod 8 in this embodiment is set as a rectangular plate.

[0035] The main unit 5 is fixedly mounted on one side of the fixed rod 2. It can be a clip or cable tie, etc. This embodiment does not specify a particular tool. The probe 4 is connected to the main unit 5 by a wire. Each connecting rod 8 has a wire fastener 81 on one side to arrange the wires of the probe 4, so as to facilitate the arrangement and installation of the wires. A wire hole 82 is opened on the side of the connecting rod 8 away from the universal seat 3. The wire hole 82 extends to one end of the length direction of the connecting rod 8 and one side extends to one side of the thickness direction of the connecting rod 8. The wire hole 82 is used to arrange the wires of the probe 4 so that the probe 4 is suspended below the connecting rod 8 by its own wires. The probe 4 is fitted with a counterweight 41 so that the probe 4 can be fully immersed in the oil. In actual use, the adaptability of the probe 4 to different oil levels can be changed by changing the length of the wires left below the connecting rod 8.

[0036] An oil shield 6 is positioned on the connecting rod 8 away from the universal joint 3. The shape of the oil shield 6 is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom. The connecting rod 8, away from the universal joint 3, passes through the top of the oil shield 6 so that the probe 4 is located below the oil shield 6. The bottom edge of the oil shield 6 is rolled inward to form an oil collection groove 61. The inner wall of the oil shield 6 is provided with several guide ribs 62. One end of the guide ribs 62 extends into the oil collection groove 61. Splashed oil can slide down along the guide ribs 62 and enter the oil collection groove 61, thereby reducing the possibility of oil droplets affecting environmental hygiene. In this embodiment, the oil shield 6 is made of food-grade high-temperature resistant silicone. The elastic silicone can better fit the opening edge of the oil container, and the elastic material can tightly clamp one end of the connecting rod 8, thereby eliminating the need for an installation structure between the oil shield 6 and the connecting rod 8.

[0037] The implementation principle of a hot oil detection instrument in this application embodiment is as follows: Before use, the staff adjusts each connecting rod 8 to a suitable angle, leaves sufficient length for the wire of the probe 4, and tightens the oil cover 6 to the connecting rod 8 to complete the preparation work.

[0038] After several uses of the oil, which is still relatively hot, the operator loosens the fixing bolt 7 and uses the lever 31 to lift the connecting rod assembly and move the probe 4 above the oil to be tested. Then, the operator rotates the lever 31 to slowly lower the probe 4 to contact and immerse it in the oil. The oil shield 6 simultaneously blocks splashed oil droplets. During the data reading and testing process of the main unit 5, the operator tightens the fixing bolt 7 without needing to fix it by hand in real time. After the main unit 5 generates the test results, the operator loosens the fixing bolt 7 and lifts the probe 4. Before the next test, the operator does not need to move the probe 4 to prevent oil adhering to the probe 4 from dripping outside the container.
