Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bread processing technology, and in particular to a fermentation box for bread processing. Background Technology

[0002] A bread proofing box, also known as a bread fermentation chamber or proofing cabinet, is a device specifically designed for dough fermentation during bread making. It typically features a constant temperature and humidity control system, providing a stable and suitable growing environment for the dough. The proofing box is equipped with a heater and humidifier to ensure the dough maintains appropriate temperature (usually between 30-38℃) and humidity (usually between 70%-85%) during fermentation, thereby promoting yeast growth and reproduction, allowing the dough to fully expand, and achieving the desired texture and structure. Using a proofing box can significantly improve bread production efficiency and quality.

[0003] In the current bread processing industry, traditional fermentation boxes are commonly used for dough fermentation. These boxes typically have high temperature settings to promote yeast activity. However, in these devices, the trays holding the fermented dough often need to be manually removed from the fermentation box by the operator. Due to prolonged exposure to high temperatures, the temperature of these trays and the dough on them rises significantly, making it highly likely that the operator will come into contact with the hot surface during the removal process, posing a high risk of burns. This operation not only threatens the safety of workers but also affects the efficiency and safety of bread processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] One objective of this invention is to provide a fermentation box for bread processing. This invention addresses the problem mentioned in the background that, due to prolonged exposure to high temperatures, the temperature of the trays and the dough on them rises significantly, making it easy for operators to come into contact with the hot surface during the pulling process, thus posing a high risk of burns. This operation not only threatens the safety of workers but also affects the efficiency and safety of bread processing.

[0005] A fermentation box for bread processing according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a door structure installed on one side of the box body, a tray structure installed inside the box body that enables contactless pull-out of the tray body, and a cleaning structure for cleaning water mist on the inner wall surface of the observation window. The tray structure includes a tray body and a gear structure. The tray body is movably connected to the inside of a tray groove, which is formed on both inner surfaces of the box body. A toothed groove is formed on the lower surface of the tray body. The gear structure is rotatably connected to one side of the inner surface of the tray groove. Limiting grooves are formed on the lower part of both inner surfaces of the box body. A connecting rod is movably connected inside the limiting groove. The connecting rod is fixedly connected to both inner surfaces of the tray body. The cleaning structure includes a cleaning rod and a turntable. The cleaning rod is movably connected to the inner wall surface of the observation window. A first transmission rod is fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning rod. One end of the first transmission rod is movably connected to the surface of the turntable through a second transmission rod.

[0006] Preferably, the door structure includes a protective door and an observation window. A slide rail is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the box. A slide groove is provided on one side surface of the protective door. The protective door is slidably connected to one side surface of the box through the slide groove and the slide rail.

[0007] Preferably, the observation window is fixedly connected to the surface of the protective door, the inner surface of the protective door is fixedly connected to a magnet to facilitate the closing of the two protective doors, and the outer surface of the protective door is fixedly connected to a control panel for controlling the entire fermentation chamber.

[0008] Preferably, a fixing block is fixedly connected to one side surface of the protective door, the first transmission rod is slidably connected to the surface of the fixing block, one end of the second transmission rod is rotatably connected to the surface of the first transmission rod, and the other end of the second transmission rod is rotatably connected to the surface of the turntable, the turntable being rotatably connected to the output end of the motor.

[0009] Preferably, the gear structure meshes with the lower surface of the pallet body through tooth grooves. Two sets of gear structures are provided within a set of pallet structures. The two sets of gear structures are connected to each other through a connecting rod, and a handwheel is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod.

[0010] Preferably, a limiting rod is fixedly connected inside the limiting groove, and the connecting rod is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting rod.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This invention utilizes a tray structure. After the dough is placed inside the tray body, the tray body is pushed inwards into the box. Then, the protective door is closed, and the dough is fermented in the fermentation box. After fermentation, the protective door is opened, and the handwheel is manually turned. The handwheel drives the gear structure through the connecting rod. The gear structure meshes with the tray body through the tooth grooves, allowing the tray body to slowly slide outwards from the box. This avoids the problem of burns that can easily occur when manually pulling out the tray in the traditional way. It achieves safe and convenient removal of the fermented dough tray, effectively avoiding the risk of burns during operation and improving the safety and efficiency of bread processing. At the same time, the setting of the limiting groove, limiting rod, and connecting rod limits the sliding trajectory and sliding distance of the tray, ensuring that the tray remains horizontal when sliding outwards and inwards from the box, preventing the tray from tipping over and causing the dough to fall out.

[0013] This invention features a cleaning structure that allows for easy observation of the dough's fermentation process through an observation window. The control panel controls a motor to rotate a turntable, causing a second transmission rod to pull a first transmission rod to extend and retract inside a fixed block. This, in turn, causes a cleaning rod to slide up and down on the inner surface of the observation window. An absorbent cotton fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning rod wipes away any water droplets or other debris from the inner wall of the observation window, ensuring a clear view and facilitating real-time monitoring of the dough's fermentation status. The automated cleaning process also improves operational convenience and the hygiene of the fermentation chamber. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0020] refer to Figure 1-3A fermentation box for bread processing includes a door structure 2 installed on one side of the box body 1, a tray structure 4 installed inside the box body 1 that allows for contactless pull-out of a tray body 401, and a cleaning structure 3 for cleaning water mist from the inner wall surface of the observation window 202. The tray structure 4 includes a tray body 401 and a gear structure 403. The tray body 401 is movably connected to the inside of a tray groove 405, which is formed on both sides of the inner surface of the box body 1. A toothed groove 402 is formed on the lower surface of the tray body 401. The gear... Structure 403 is rotatably connected to one side of the inside of the tray groove 405. Limiting grooves 407 are provided on the lower parts of both sides of the inside of the box body 1. Connecting rods 406 are movably connected inside the limiting grooves 407. Connecting rods 406 are fixedly connected to both sides of the tray body 401. Cleaning structure 3 includes a cleaning rod 301 and a turntable 305. Cleaning rod 301 is movably connected to the inner wall surface of the observation window 202. A first transmission rod 302 is fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning rod 301. One end of the first transmission rod 302 is connected to a second transmission rod. Rod 303 is movably connected to the surface of turntable 305. After the dough is placed inside the tray body 401, the tray body 401 is pushed inward towards the inside of the box 1. Then, the protective door 201 is closed, and the dough is fermented in the fermentation box. After fermentation, the protective door 201 is opened, and the handwheel 409 is manually turned. The handwheel 409 drives the gear structure 403 to rotate through the connecting rod 404. The gear structure 403 meshes with the tray body 401 through the tooth groove 402, so that the tray body 401 slowly slides outward from the inside of the box 1. This avoids the problem of easy burns caused by manually pulling out the tray in the traditional way, and realizes the safe and convenient removal of the fermented dough tray. It effectively avoids the risk of burns during operation and improves the safety and efficiency of bread processing. At the same time, the setting of the limiting groove 407, the limiting rod 408 and the connecting rod 406 limits the sliding trajectory and sliding distance of the tray, so that the tray is in a horizontal state when sliding outward and inward towards the box 1, and will not tip over and cause the dough to fall.

[0021] Example 1: The door structure 2 includes a protective door 201 and an observation window 202. A slide rail 204 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the box body 1. A groove 205 is opened on one side surface of the protective door 201. The protective door 201 is slidably connected to one side surface of the box body 1 through the groove 205 and the slide rail 204. The observation window 202 is fixedly connected to the surface of the protective door 201. A magnet 206 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the protective door 201 to facilitate the closing of the two protective doors 201. A control panel 203 for controlling the entire fermentation box is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the protective door 201. A fixing block 304 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the protective door 201. A first transmission rod 302 is slidably connected to the surface of the fixing block 304. One end of the second transmission rod 303 is rotatably connected to the first transmission rod 302. The other end of the second transmission rod 303 is rotatably connected to the surface of the turntable 305. The turntable 305 is connected to the output end of the motor. During the dough fermentation process, when it is necessary to observe the fermentation status of the dough inside the fermentation box through the observation window 202, the motor can be controlled by the control panel 203 to drive the turntable 305 to rotate, so that the second transmission rod 303 pulls the first transmission rod 302 to extend and retract inside the fixed block 304. Finally, the cleaning rod 301 slides up and down on the inner surface of the observation window 202. The absorbent cotton fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning rod 301 wipes and cleans the water mist and other substances on the inner wall of the observation window 202, ensuring the clarity of the observation window 202 and facilitating real-time monitoring of the dough fermentation status. At the same time, the automated cleaning process improves the ease of operation and the hygiene level of the fermentation box.

[0022] Example 2: The gear structure 403 meshes with the lower surface of the pallet body 401 through the tooth groove 402. Two sets of gear structures 403 are provided in a set of pallet structures 4. The two sets of gear structures 403 are connected to each other through the connecting rod 404. A handwheel 409 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 404. A limiting rod 408 is fixedly connected inside the limiting groove 407. The connecting rod 406 is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting rod 408.

[0023] In use, first, place the dough inside the tray body 401 and push the tray body 401 into the tray groove 405 inside the box 1. The horizontal sliding of the tray body 401 is ensured by the cooperation of the connecting rod 406 and the limiting rod 408. Then, close the protective door 201 with the observation window 202. The protective door 201 is slidably connected to the side wall of the box 1 through the slide rail 204 and slide groove 205 structure, and is sealed by the magnet 206. During the fermentation process, if it is necessary to observe the state of the dough, the motor can be operated through the control panel 203 to drive the turntable 305 to rotate. Then, through the movable connection of the second transmission rod 303 and the first transmission rod 302, the cleaning rod 301 slides up and down on the inner wall surface of the observation window 202 to absorb the cotton and wipe away the water mist, keeping the observation window 202 clear. After fermentation, open the protective door 201 and manually turn the handwheel 409. The connecting rod 404 drives the two sets of gear structures 403 to rotate. The gear structures 403 mesh with the tooth grooves 402 of the tray body 401, causing the tray body 401 to slowly slide out from the inside of the box 1 to the predetermined position. The whole process does not require direct contact with the high-temperature tray, effectively avoiding the risk of burns, while ensuring the stability and safety of the dough during the removal process.
