Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rotary marinating tank technology, and more particularly to a rotary marinating tank for recycling meat product marinating liquid. Background Technology

[0002] In the meat processing industry, marinating is a crucial process, as the use of marinade significantly impacts the taste, flavor, and quality of meat products. Traditional marinating methods often suffer from uneven marinating and low utilization rates of the marinade. On one hand, static marinating methods tend to result in varying degrees of contact between different parts of the meat product and the marinade, leading to inconsistent marinating results. On the other hand, the marinade is typically discharged directly after a single use, wasting resources and increasing production costs and the risk of environmental pollution. Therefore, we propose a rotary marinating tank for recycling meat product marinade to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a rotary marinating tank for recycling meat product marinating liquid.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A rotary marinating tank for recycling meat product marinating liquid includes a base plate. A U-shaped mounting bracket is rotatably connected to one side of the upper end of the base plate. A lifting mechanism is connected to one side of the lower end of the U-shaped mounting bracket. A rotating mechanism is installed on one side of the U-shaped mounting bracket. A carrying tank is connected to the rotating mechanism. A protective box is fixed to the other side of the U-shaped mounting bracket. A rotary joint is rotatably connected inside the protective box. A marinating liquid conveying mechanism is connected to the fixed end of the rotary joint. A rotating device is connected to the rotating end of the rotary joint. A spray pipe is connected to the rotating end of the rotary joint. One end of the spray pipe extends into the carrying tank. A conical guide shroud is fixed to one side of the upper end of the spray pipe.

[0006] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder rotatably connected to the lower end of the U-shaped mounting bracket, and a groove is provided on one side of the upper end of the base plate, with the lower end of the hydraulic cylinder rotatably connected in the groove.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a drive motor fixed to one side of the U-shaped mounting bracket, and a connecting rod is connected to the end of the output shaft of the drive motor. One end of the connecting rod passes through the side wall of the U-shaped mounting bracket and is fixed to one end of the carrying tank.

[0008] Preferably, the marinating liquid conveying mechanism includes a conveying pipe connected to the fixed end of the rotary joint, a marinating liquid storage tank is installed at the upper end of the base plate, a conveying pump is installed inside the marinating liquid storage tank, and the conveying pipe passes through the side wall of the protective box and is connected to the conveying pump.

[0009] Preferably, the rotating device includes a servo motor fixed to the bottom of the protective box, a gear set connected to the end of the output shaft of the servo motor, a section of the gear set being installed on the rotating end of the rotary joint, an mounting plate being installed on the upper side of the protective box, and the fixed end of the rotary joint being installed on the mounting plate.

[0010] Preferably, the nozzle has multiple coarse and fine spray holes arranged at equal intervals on its circumferential sidewall, and a sealing door is installed on one side of the carrier tank, with a discharge pipe connected to the lower end of the sealing door.

[0011] Preferably, two hydraulic dampers are installed on one side of the lower end of the U-shaped mounting bracket, and two mounting slots corresponding to the hydraulic dampers are provided on one side of the upper end of the base plate.

[0012] In this utility model, when in use:

[0013] 1. Preparation stage

[0014] Place the meat products to be marinated into the carrier tank through the sealed door, then close the sealed door to ensure the tank is well sealed. Add an appropriate amount of marinade to the marinade storage tank and start the transfer pump.

[0015] 2. Pickling liquid delivery

[0016] The delivery pump transports the marinade from the marinade storage tank to the fixed end of the rotary joint through the delivery pipe. Due to the special design of the rotary joint, it can ensure the stable delivery of the marinade while rotating. The marinade enters the spray pipe from the rotating end of the rotary joint.

[0017] 3. Rotary marinating

[0018] The drive motor is started, and its output shaft rotates the connecting rod, causing the carrier tank to rotate within the U-shaped mounting bracket. Simultaneously, the servo motor is activated, driving the rotating end of the rotary joint via a gear set, which in turn rotates the spray nozzle. During rotation, the marinade is sprayed onto the meat products through coarse and fine nozzles at different pressures and flow rates. The coarse nozzles allow the marinade to cover the surface of the meat products with greater impact, while the fine nozzles allow the marinade to penetrate more evenly into the meat products. The conical guide shield guides the marinade to be sprayed more effectively onto the meat products, improving the marinating effect.

[0019] 4. Pickling liquid circulation

[0020] Once marinating is complete, open the sealed door and remove the marinated meat products from the carrier tank. Activate the hydraulic cylinder; its extension and retraction cause the U-shaped mounting bracket to rotate around the pivot point, thereby raising the carrier tank at a certain angle. The marinade sprayed on the meat products will flow back to the bottom of the carrier tank and be collected through the discharge pipe and collection bucket. After filtration, the marinade is returned to the marinade storage tank, achieving the recycling of the marinade.

[0021] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0022] 1. The rotating marinating method allows the meat products to tumble continuously during the marinating process, ensuring that all parts are fully exposed to the marinade. This avoids the uneven marinating that occurs in traditional marinating methods, thereby improving the overall quality and taste of the meat products.

[0023] 2. The combination of coarse and fine spray holes on the nozzle allows for adjustment of the spraying method of the marinade according to the marinating needs, enabling the marinade to better penetrate into the meat products and further improve the marinating effect.

[0024] 3. The pickling liquid can be recycled after use and reused through a recycling system, which greatly improves the utilization rate of the pickling liquid, reduces waste, and lowers production costs.

[0025] 4. By controlling parameters such as the speed of the drive motor and servo motor, the marinating process can be adjusted according to different meat products and marinating requirements, which has strong flexibility and adaptability.

[0026] In summary, this invention not only improves the efficiency of marinating, but also allows the marinating liquid to penetrate the meat products better, further enhancing the marinating effect. In addition, it facilitates the rapid discharge of the marinating liquid, making it easy to recycle and reuse. Furthermore, the rotation speed of the marinating process can be adjusted according to different meat products and marinating requirements, demonstrating strong flexibility and adaptability.

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0034] Reference Figure 1-5 A rotary marinating tank for recycling meat product marinating liquid includes a base plate 20. A U-shaped mounting bracket 15 is rotatably connected to one side of the upper end of the base plate 20. A lifting mechanism is connected to one side of the lower end of the U-shaped mounting bracket 15. A rotating mechanism is installed on one side of the U-shaped mounting bracket 15, and a carrying tank 13 is connected to the rotating mechanism. A protective box 10 is fixed to the other side of the U-shaped mounting bracket 15. A rotary joint 7 is rotatably connected inside the protective box 10. A marinating liquid conveying mechanism is connected to the fixed end of the rotary joint 7, and a rotating device is connected to the rotating end of the rotary joint 7. A spray pipe 1 is connected to the rotating end of the rotary joint 7. One end of the spray pipe 1 extends into the carrying tank 13. A conical guide shroud 4 is fixed to one side of the upper end of the spray pipe 1. Through the rotation of the bearing tank and the nozzle, as well as the design of coarse and fine nozzles, the marinade can evenly cover and penetrate all parts of the meat products, ensuring the consistency and uniformity of the marinating effect. During the rotation of the nozzle, the guide shroud can change the liquid flow from vertical spray to inclined or spiral distribution, reducing the "dead corners" on the surface of the meat products. With the help of the rotating nozzle, the centrifugal force generated by the conical structure can more evenly disperse the droplets from the fine nozzle into the gaps between the meat fibers, shortening the time required for traditional static marinating by more than 30%. The smooth surface of the conical structure reduces the residue of marinade and the accumulation of impurities. Combined with the tilting function of the lifting mechanism, residual liquid can be quickly drained, reducing the risk of bacterial growth.

[0035] The lifting mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder 18 rotatably connected to the lower end of the U-shaped mounting bracket 15. A groove 19 is provided on one side of the upper end of the base plate 20. The lower end of the hydraulic cylinder 18 is rotatably connected in the groove 19. When it is necessary to recycle the pickling liquid, the bearing tank is lifted to a certain angle by controlling the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder, so that the pickling liquid can flow back to the bottom of the bearing tank and prepare for subsequent recycling.

[0036] The rotating mechanism includes a drive motor 11 fixed to one side of the U-shaped mounting bracket 15. The output shaft of the drive motor 11 is connected to a connecting rod 12. One end of the connecting rod 12 passes through the side wall of the U-shaped mounting bracket 15 and is fixed to one end of the carrying tank 13. The drive motor 11 has a speed adjustment function, which can adjust the rotation speed of the carrying tank 13 according to different marinating requirements. For some softer meat products, the rotation speed can be appropriately reduced to avoid damage to the meat products due to violent rotation; while for harder meat products, the rotation speed can be appropriately increased to enhance the contact effect between the marinade and the meat products.

[0037] The marinating liquid conveying mechanism includes a conveying pipe 8 connected to the fixed end of the rotary joint 7. A marinating liquid storage tank 21 is installed on the upper end of the base plate 20. A conveying pump is installed inside the marinating liquid storage tank 21. The conveying pipe 8 passes through the side wall of the protective box 10 and is connected to the conveying pump. During the marinating process, the flow rate of the conveying pump can be adjusted according to the quantity and size of the meat products in the carrying tank 13 to ensure that the marinating liquid can be evenly conveyed to the spray pipe 1.

[0038] The rotating device includes a servo motor 9 fixed at the bottom of the protective box 10. The output shaft of the servo motor 9 is connected to a gear set 5. One end of the gear set 5 is installed on the rotating end of the rotary joint 7. An mounting plate 6 is installed on the upper side of the protective box 10. The fixed end of the rotary joint 7 is installed on the mounting plate 6. When the servo motor is started, the rotating end of the rotary joint is driven to rotate through the gear set, thereby rotating the spray pipe 1. The rotation of the spray pipe 1 can make the marinade sprayed on the meat products at different angles and directions, further improving the uniformity of marinating.

[0039] Multiple coarse spray holes 2 and fine spray holes 3 are evenly spaced and staggered on the circumferential side wall of the nozzle 1. A sealing door 14 is installed on one side of the supporting tank 13, and a discharge pipe is connected to the lower end of the sealing door 14. The coarse spray holes 2 generally have a larger diameter, usually between 3-5 mm, which allows the marinade to be sprayed onto the surface of the meat product with a larger pressure and flow rate, quickly covering the outer layer of the meat product. The fine spray holes 3 have a relatively smaller diameter, generally between 1-2 mm, which allows the marinade to penetrate into the interior of the meat product more evenly with a smaller pressure and flow rate. This staggered design allows the marinade to achieve a good marinating effect on both the surface and the interior of the meat product.

[0040] Two hydraulic dampers 16 are installed on one side of the lower end of the U-shaped mounting bracket 15. Two mounting slots 17 corresponding to the hydraulic dampers 16 are provided on one side of the upper end of the base plate 20. The main function of the hydraulic dampers 16 is to buffer and stabilize the U-shaped mounting bracket 15 during rotation.

[0041] In this utility model, when in use:

[0042] 1. Preparation stage

[0043] Place the meat products to be marinated into the carrier tank 13 through the sealing door 14, then close the sealing door 14 to ensure the tank is well sealed, add an appropriate amount of marinade to the marinade storage tank 21, and start the delivery pump.

[0044] 2. Pickling liquid delivery

[0045] The delivery pump delivers the marinade from the marinade storage tank 21 to the fixed end of the rotary joint 7 through the delivery pipe 8. Due to the special design of the rotary joint 7, it can ensure the stable delivery of the marinade while rotating. The marinade enters the spray pipe 1 from the rotating end of the rotary joint 7.

[0046] 3. Rotary marinating

[0047] The drive motor 11 is started, and its output shaft drives the connecting rod 12 to rotate, thereby causing the carrier tank 13 to rotate within the U-shaped mounting bracket 15. Simultaneously, the servo motor 9 is started, and it drives the rotating end of the rotary joint 7 to rotate via the gear set 5, which in turn causes the spray nozzle 1 to rotate. During rotation, the marinating liquid is sprayed onto the meat products through the coarse nozzle 2 and fine nozzle 3 at different pressures and flow rates. The coarse nozzle 2 allows the marinating liquid to cover the surface of the meat products with greater impact, while the fine nozzle 3 allows the marinating liquid to penetrate the meat products more evenly. The conical guide shroud 4 guides the marinating liquid to be sprayed onto the meat products more effectively, improving the marinating effect.

[0048] 4. Pickling liquid circulation

[0049] After marinating is complete, open the sealed door 14 and remove the marinated meat products from the carrier tank 13. Start the hydraulic cylinder 18. The extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder 18 causes the U-shaped mounting bracket 15 to rotate around the rotating connection point, thereby raising the carrier tank 13 to a certain angle. The marinating liquid sprayed on the meat products will flow back to the bottom of the carrier tank 13 and be collected through the discharge pipe and collection bucket. After filtration, the marinating liquid is transported back to the marinating liquid storage tank 21 to realize the recycling of the marinating liquid.

[0050] In this invention, the marinade filtration can be carried out using a multi-stage filtration method. First, a coarse filter screen is used to filter out large impurities in the marinade, such as meat scraps and bone fragments. Then, a fine filter screen is used to further filter out small impurities and microorganisms, preventing them from affecting the marinating effect and the quality of meat products during recycling. At the same time, filtration can also extend the service life of the marinade and reduce production costs.

[0051] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
