Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of food processing, specifically relating to a chicken feet processing pool and a chicken feet processing production line. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of chicken feet food processing, thawing, cleaning, and sterilization are core process steps, and their processing effect directly affects the hygiene quality and processing efficiency of the product. Traditional chicken feet processing tanks mostly adopt a simple water tank structure, and achieve thawing, decontamination, and sterilization functions through external heating or aeration devices. However, the existing technology has many shortcomings in practical applications: (1) Low heat exchange efficiency: Traditional heating pipes mostly adopt a straight or simple zigzag layout. Due to the limited space at the bottom of the tank, the effective length of the heating pipe is insufficient, resulting in a small heating area, uneven heat transfer, and difficulty in quickly reaching and maintaining the target temperature. (2) Poor space utilization: Aeration pipes and heating pipes are usually set in layers, occupying the vertical space of the tank, and the pipe layout is loose, resulting in redundant tank structure. (3) Limited processing effect: The bubble flow generated by the conventional aeration system is unevenly distributed and the turbulence intensity is insufficient, resulting in incomplete removal of impurities from the surface of the chicken feet; at the same time, local differences in water temperature are prone to occur, affecting the uniformity of thawing or sterilization. Therefore, there are still areas for improvement in the structure of the existing chicken feet processing tank. Utility Model Content

[0022] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains.

[0024] Firstly, the structure of the chicken feet processing pool in the embodiments of this utility model is as follows: Figures 1 to 5As shown, it includes a pool body 1 with an open top, and a heating pipe 2 and an aeration pipe 3 installed at the bottom of the pool body 1. The top of the pool body 1 is connected to an independent inlet pipe 11 and an overflow pipe 12. The inlet pipe 11 is used to inject water into the pool body 1, and the overflow pipe 12 can discharge suspended oil and grease and control the water level. A drain pipe 13 is connected to the bottom of the pool body 1 for discharging wastewater from the pool. The heating pipe 2 extends in a continuous S-shaped bend in the horizontal plane, with multiple U-shaped sections 21 with the same opening direction evenly distributed along its length. This S-shaped bend structure... The laying length of the heating pipe is significantly increased within the limited bottom area of ​​the pool, thereby maximizing the heating area and improving the overall heat exchange capacity. The aeration pipe 3 includes multiple parallel branch pipes 31 corresponding to the positions of each U-shaped part 21 and a connecting pipe 32 fixedly connected and communicating with the same end of all branch pipes 31. The connecting pipe 32 is connected to the air source 4 (such as a blower). Each branch pipe 31 is provided with multiple air outlets spaced along its length direction. All branch pipes 31 are located in the horizontal plane. In use, the gas provided by the air source 4 (such as air or ozone) enters each branch pipe 31 through the connecting pipe 32 and is finally blown out through the air outlet to generate a bubble flow. The chicken feet processing tank in this embodiment improves processing efficiency and space utilization through innovative structural design. Specifically, the heating pipe 2 adopts a continuous S-shaped bending path in the horizontal plane and has multiple equally spaced U-shaped sections 21, maximizing the heating area within the limited tank bottom space. Combined with the efficient heat transfer of the heat conduction pipe, it achieves rapid and uniform heating. The branch pipes 31 of the aeration pipe 3 correspond one-to-one with the U-shaped sections 21 of the heating pipe 2 and are arranged in the same layer. The bubble flow evenly covers the heating area, and the turbulent flow enhances the impurity removal, heat balance, and ozone sterilization effects. During operation, heating and aeration run simultaneously. The bubble flow washes over the chicken feet and promotes heat conduction. The overall structure is compact and suitable for thawing, cleaning, sterilization, and other processes, which helps to improve processing automation and hygiene standards.

[0025] In this embodiment, the heating pipe 2 is a steam heat conduction pipe, which is connected to a steam source (usually an industrial boiler or steam generator). The steam generated by the steam source is transported through a pipeline to the steam heat conduction pipe at the bottom of the pool and dissipates heat to achieve the purpose of external heating.

[0026] See Figure 1 As shown, the upper part of the pool body 1 is provided with a horizontal water trough 14 extending along its upper edge. The horizontal water trough 14 is connected to the inner cavity of the pool body 1 through a connecting hole. The connecting hole is located on the side wall of the pool body 1. The overflow pipe 12 is connected to the horizontal water trough 14. When the liquid level in the pool body 1 reaches the height of the connecting hole, the liquid that is continuously injected automatically overflows into the horizontal water trough and is discharged through the overflow pipe to maintain the liquid level balance in the pool body 1.

[0027] like Figure 1As shown, a support structure is provided inside the pool body 1. During use, after the basket is submerged in the pool body 1, the support structure provides upward support for the basket, thereby stabilizing the basket within the pool body. Preferably, the support structure includes a support frame 15 located at the bottom of the pool body 1. The heating pipe 2 and aeration pipe 3 are positioned below the support frame 15 to prevent the basket submerged in the pool body 1 from compressing the heating pipe 2 and aeration pipe 3. More preferably, the support frame 15 is an annular structure surrounding the bottom of the pool body 1, and this annular structure is arranged along the inner circumference of the pool body 1.

[0028] Preferably, control valves 5 are installed on the water inlet pipe 11 and the drain pipe 13. The control valves 5 can control the on / off state and flow rate of the pipes to meet actual usage requirements. The control valves 5 can be manual or electric.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, the drainage pipe 13 and the overflow pipe 12 are connected to the main drainage pipe 6; the main drainage pipe 6 is equipped with an observation and maintenance port 61; the observation and maintenance port 61 is equipped with an openable and closable cover plate, which is opened during maintenance and closed after maintenance, thereby improving the convenience of maintenance operations.

[0030] Secondly, the chicken feet processing production line in this utility model embodiment includes any of the chicken feet processing pools described above; in the chicken feet processing production line, the chicken feet processing pool can be used as a thawing pool, a washing pool, a sterilization pool, etc.; since the chicken feet processing production line adopts the chicken feet processing pool structure in the above embodiment, it also has all its advantages, which will not be elaborated here.

[0031] For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, these obvious variations or modifications derived from the essential spirit of this invention still fall within the scope of protection of this invention.
