Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of aquatic product processing equipment, and more particularly to an aquatic product blanching device. Background Technology

[0002] Blanching is a crucial step in the processing of aquatic products, especially for molluscs such as octopus. Blanching involves briefly heating aquatic products in hot water at a specific temperature. Its main purpose is to remove dirt, mucus, and odors from the surface of the products, while also sterilizing, fixing color, shaping, and improving the quality of subsequent processing. Blanching not only enhances the appearance and taste of aquatic products but also effectively extends their shelf life and improves food safety. Therefore, in industrialized aquatic product processing, a scientifically sound blanching process is of decisive importance in ensuring product quality.

[0003] Currently, common aquatic product blanching devices mainly consist of a blanching tank to hold hot water. This tank typically has an inlet and an outlet, each equipped with corresponding control valves to regulate the water temperature and replace the hot water. An air vent is located at the bottom of the tank, with multiple evenly distributed air outlets. During operation, an external air source supplies air to the air vent, causing gas to continuously escape from the outlets, thus creating turbulence and agitation in the water. During blanching, the aquatic products are placed in a dedicated container and then immersed entirely in the blanching tank. The turbulence of the water moves the products, achieving even heating. This structural design simulates the effect of manual stirring, helping to improve blanching efficiency and product quality.

[0004] However, existing aquatic product blanching devices still have significant drawbacks. When the density of aquatic products is high, such as when processing octopus, the products tend to accumulate in layers within the container. The products at the bottom layer are constrained by the pressure from the upper layers and the space on the container's sidewalls, making it difficult for air bubbles to effectively penetrate the entire material layer. This weakens the turbulence effect, resulting in insufficient driving force for product tumbling and further affecting the blanching effect. Furthermore, since heat is primarily transferred through the heat-conducting medium around the container, products near the edges are preferentially heated, while those in the center experience lower heat exchange efficiency due to shielding. This leads to uneven temperature distribution throughout the batch, severely impacting blanching consistency and finished product quality. Therefore, optimizing the structural design of existing blanching devices to address the difficulties in tumbling and uneven heating of aquatic products under high-density loading has become a crucial direction for improving current aquatic product processing equipment.

[0005] This application provides a blanching device for aquatic products to solve the technical problem that existing blanching devices do not allow sufficient contact between the heat transfer medium and the aquatic products, resulting in an unsatisfactory blanching effect. The technical solution is as follows:

This device features innovative structural design improvements, significantly enhancing the uniformity of heating and processing efficiency of aquatic products during blanching, and has promising prospects for industrial application. Specifically, by setting up an oscillating component with drainage holes and suspending it within the receiving chamber of the container body, aquatic products can be placed in the receiving groove of the oscillating component, allowing them to contact the heat-conducting medium. The linkage mechanism drives the oscillating component to reciprocate and move up and down within the receiving chamber, not only moving the aquatic products up and down in the heat-conducting medium but also promoting the continuous circulation of the heat-conducting medium in and out of the receiving groove, further enhancing the penetration and coverage of the heat-conducting medium on the aquatic products. This dynamic contact method effectively avoids the problem of insufficient heating or temperature gradient differences caused by the accumulation of aquatic products, ensuring uniform heating and thorough processing of the entire batch of aquatic products during blanching, and improving the consistency of product quality.

[0022] In summary, this application provides a novel aquatic product blanching device with high heat transfer efficiency and superior blanching effect.

[0048] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered to be exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0049] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of this application proposes a seafood blanching device, which may include: a container body 1 with a built-in receiving chamber 102, the container body 1 having an opening 101 communicating with the receiving chamber 102, the receiving chamber 102 being used to store a heat-conducting medium; an oscillating component 7 having a receiving trough 71 for placing seafood, and a drainage through hole 72 communicating with the receiving trough 71 being provided on the side wall of the oscillating component 7; and a linkage mechanism 6, disposed above the container body 1, the linkage mechanism 6 being connected to the oscillating component 7, the oscillating component 7 being suspended in the receiving chamber 102 through the linkage mechanism 6;

[0050] The linkage mechanism 6 drives the oscillating component 7 to reciprocate up and down in the accommodating chamber 102, so that the heat transfer medium is evenly distributed in the accommodating tank 71 through the drain hole 72, thereby ensuring that the aquatic products in the accommodating tank 71 are in full contact with the heat transfer medium.

[0051] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in this application, the container body 1 can be a cylindrical or cuboid structure. The container body 1 has a built-in accommodating chamber 102 for storing the heat-conducting medium. In this application, the heat-conducting medium is a liquid, which can be water that can be heated, so as to blanch the aquatic products. In order to facilitate the replacement of the heat-conducting medium in the accommodating chamber 102, an inlet pipe 2 and an outlet pipe 3 are also provided on the container body 1. The inlet pipe 2 is arranged higher than the outlet pipe 3, and the outlet pipe 3 can be flush with the bottom of the accommodating chamber 102 so that the heat-conducting medium in the container chamber can be completely discharged through the outlet pipe 3. In order to control the amount of heat-conducting medium discharged or discharged, valves that can be controlled to open and close can be configured on the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3. The oscillating component 7 can be configured as a hollow structure to form a plurality of drainage holes 72 on the oscillating component. The oscillating component 7 also has a receiving groove 71 that connects each drainage hole 72. The receiving groove 71 is used to hold aquatic products. When the oscillating component 7 is placed in the receiving chamber 102, the heat-conducting medium can enter the receiving groove 71 through the drainage holes 72 so that the heat-conducting medium can contact the aquatic products in the receiving groove 71. When the oscillating component 7 is removed from the receiving chamber 102, the heat-conducting medium in the receiving groove 71 flows out through the drainage holes 72 so that the heat-conducting medium is not left in the receiving groove 71 after the oscillating component 7 is removed from the receiving chamber 102. The key technical point of this application is that a linkage mechanism 6 connected to the oscillating component 7 is arranged above the container body 1. The oscillating component 7 can be suspended in the receiving chamber 102 through the linkage mechanism 6. When the linkage mechanism 6 is activated, the linkage mechanism 6 can drive the oscillating component 7 to reciprocate up and down in the receiving chamber 102, so that the aquatic products placed on the oscillating component 7 can move. At the same time, the heat-conducting medium in the receiving chamber 102 also continuously enters and exits the receiving chamber 71 through the drainage channel, so that the heat-conducting medium can fully contact the aquatic products in the receiving chamber 71, so that the heat in the heat-conducting medium can be evenly transferred to the aquatic products, thereby better completing the blanching process of the aquatic products.

[0052] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the linkage mechanism 6 includes: a drive component 61, mounted on the container body 1 and located at the top of the container body 1; a traction component 62, connected to opposite sides of the oscillating component 7, the oscillating component 7 being suspended below the drive component 61 by the traction component 62; the drive component 61 lifts the oscillating component 7 by the traction component 62, so that the two sides of the oscillating component 7 change position to be closer to or further away from the drive component 61.

[0053] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in this application, the drive component 61 can be used as a power component to drive the oscillating component 7 to move back and forth. The traction component 62 is used to connect the oscillating component 7 to the drive component 61. The oscillating component 7 can be suspended below the drive component 61 by the traction component 62. After the drive component 61 is started, the traction component 62 transmits the driving force generated by the drive component 61 to the oscillating component 7. Since the oscillating component 7 is placed in the receiving chamber 102 by suspension, the oscillating component 7 can move back and forth in the receiving chamber 102 with the help of the driving force of the drive component 61. This allows the aquatic products in the oscillating component 7 to fully contact the heat-conducting medium in the receiving chamber 102, so that the heat in the heat-conducting medium can be evenly transferred to the aquatic products, thereby achieving the purpose of uniform heating.

[0054] Furthermore, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, it further includes: a mounting bracket 5 disposed above the container body 1, and a drive assembly 61 disposed on the mounting bracket 5;

[0055] The drive assembly 61 includes: a first rotating member rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 5; a second rotating member rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 5, the second rotating member being arranged opposite to the first rotating member; and two sets of traction components 62, one set of traction components 62 being on one side of the first rotating member and the oscillating component 7, and the other set of traction components 62 being connected to the other side of the second rotating member and the oscillating component 7.

[0056] The traction component 62 is connected to the offset position of the first rotating component and the second rotating component respectively, so that when the first rotating component and the second rotating component are rotated, the traction component 62 drives the oscillating component 7 to move.

[0057] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in this application, in order to facilitate the placement of the drive component 61 above the container body 1, so that the drive component 61 cooperates with the traction component 62 to suspend the oscillation component 7 in the receiving chamber 102, the aquatic product blanching device of this application may further include: a mounting bracket 5 disposed on the container body 1, the mounting bracket 5 being located above the container body 1, and the drive component 61 being mounted on the mounting bracket 5. In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 5 may adopt an H-shaped structure to facilitate the installation of the drive component 61 in the clearance space formed on both sides of the mounting bracket 5.

[0058] In some embodiments, the drive assembly 61 may include a first rotating member and a second rotating member, rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 5. To improve stability by connecting the opposite sides of the oscillating member 7 via the traction member 62, the first and second rotating members are mounted on a clearance space oppositely arranged on the mounting bracket 5, corresponding to the opposite sides of the oscillating member 7 placed in the receiving chamber 102, so that the first and second rotating members can be connected to the oscillating member 7 via the traction member 62. In one embodiment of this application, the traction member 62 may be divided into two groups based on the first and second rotating members. One group of traction members 62 connects the first rotating member to one side of the oscillating member 7, while the other group connects the second rotating member to the other side of the oscillating member 7, thereby enabling the oscillating member 7 to be stably suspended in the receiving chamber 102. In this embodiment, the rotational force of the first and second rotating members is converted into a force that enables the oscillating component 7 to move up and down. Specifically, the traction component 62 can be connected to the outer side of the first and second rotating members at a position off the axis of rotation. As the first and second rotating members rotate, the connection position between the traction component 62 and the first and second rotating members changes continuously, so that the oscillating component 7 can move up and down reciprocally by being pulled by the traction component 62. This ensures that the aquatic products are fully in contact with the heat-conducting medium in the accommodating chamber 102 within the oscillating component 7, avoiding insufficient heat uniformity.

[0059] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the traction component 62 includes four steel wire ropes in pairs, wherein two steel wire ropes are connected to two sides in the axial direction of the first rotating component, and the remaining two steel wire ropes are connected to two sides in the axial direction of the second rotating component.

[0060] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in this application, in order to further improve the stability of the oscillating component 7 without affecting the transmission of driving force, the traction component 62 can be composed of four steel wire ropes, and the four steel wire ropes are connected in pairs to the two sides of the first rotating component in the axial direction and the two sides of the second rotating component in the axial direction, respectively. In the embodiment of this application, the four steel wire ropes are connected to the oscillating component 7 at intervals, thereby preventing the oscillating component 7 from flipping over during the reciprocating lifting and lowering movement. The oscillating component 7 preferably adopts a cuboid structure so that the four steel wire ropes are connected to the four corners of the top of the oscillating component 7, thereby achieving the purpose of stably suspending the oscillating component 7 below the driving assembly 61.

[0061] Furthermore, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, the first rotating member and the second rotating member have the same structure, each including: a drive motor 612, mounted on the mounting bracket 5, the drive motor 612 having two synchronously rotating output shafts, and the two output shafts being located on opposite sides of the drive motor 612; two first turntables 611, the center positions of the two first turntables 611 being connected to the ends of the two output shafts respectively, and rotating synchronously with the two output shafts, the offset position of the two first turntables 611 from the rotation axis on the side away from the output shaft being connected to the wire rope of the traction component 62.

[0062] Specifically, in one embodiment of the technical solution adopted in this application, the first rotating member and the second rotating member can adopt the same structure and need to meet the rotation requirements on the mounting bracket 5 so as to drive the oscillating member 7 to perform reciprocating lifting and lowering movement through the traction member 62. In this embodiment, the first rotating component and the second rotating component may each include: a drive motor 612 and two first turntables 611 driven by the drive motor 612. The drive motor 612 may be a dual-axis motor, and its housing is fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket 5. The two first turntables 611 are respectively arranged on the output shafts on both sides of the drive motor 612. Specifically, the inner center of the two first turntables 611 is connected to the corresponding output shaft, and the two first turntables 611 rotate synchronously with the output shaft of the drive motor 612. The outer offset positions of the two first turntables 611 from the rotation axis are connected to steel wire ropes, so that when the two first turntables 611 rotate under the drive motor 612, the position of the connection between the steel wire rope and the first turntable 611 changes continuously, thereby continuously lifting the oscillating component 7 to perform reciprocating lifting and lowering movement through the steel wire rope. In this embodiment, in order to improve the lifting efficiency of the oscillating component 7, the drive motors 612 in the first rotating component and the second rotating component can be adjusted to rotate at the same frequency.

[0063] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the first rotating component includes: a drive motor 612, mounted on one side of the mounting bracket 5, the drive motor 612 having two synchronously rotating output shafts, and the two output shafts being located on opposite sides of the drive motor 612; and two first turntables 611, the center of the two first turntables 611 being connected to the ends of the two output shafts respectively, and rotating synchronously with the two output shafts.

[0064] The second rotating component includes: a rotating shaft component 614, rotatably mounted on the side of the mounting bracket 5 away from the drive motor 612; two second rotating disks, the center positions of the two second rotating disks 613 are respectively connected to the two ends of the rotating shaft component 614, and rotate synchronously with the rotating shaft component 614; the offset position of the two first rotating disks 611 away from the output shaft is connected to a set of steel wire ropes in the traction component 62, and the offset position of the two second rotating disks 613 away from the rotating shaft component 614 is connected to another set of steel wire ropes in the traction component 62.

[0065] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the linkage mechanism 6 further includes: a transmission component 9, disposed between the first turntable 611 and the second turntable 613, wherein the first turntable 611 drives the second turntable 613 to rotate via the transmission component 9; the transmission component 9 includes: a first sprocket 91, sleeved on one of the output shafts of the drive motor 612 and rotating synchronously with the output shaft; a second sprocket 93, sleeved on the rotating shaft component 614 and rotating synchronously with the rotating shaft component 614; and a chain 92, meshing between the first sprocket 91 and the second sprocket 93, so as to drive the first sprocket 91 and the second sprocket 93 to rotate synchronously via the drive motor 612.

[0066] Specifically, in the preferred embodiment of this application, to solve the control problem of two drive motors 612 operating at the same frequency, a first rotating component can drive a second rotating component to rotate. The first rotating component may include a drive motor 612 and two first turntables 611. The drive motor 612 can be a dual-axis motor with two output shafts, located on opposite sides of the drive motor 612 housing, with the housing fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket 5. The centers of the two first turntables 611 are respectively connected to the corresponding output shafts and rotate synchronously with them. The second rotating component may include a shaft component 614 and two second turntables 613. The shaft component 614 is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 5, and the centers of the two second turntables 613 are respectively connected to the opposite ends of the shaft component 614 and rotate synchronously with it. In essence, the first rotating component is the active rotating component, while the second rotating component is the driven rotating component.

[0067] In a further embodiment, a transmission assembly 9 is provided between the first rotating member and the second rotating member to transmit the rotational force of the first rotating member to the second rotating member. Specifically, the transmission assembly 9 may include: a first sprocket 91, a second sprocket 93, and a chain 92; the first sprocket 91 is sleeved on one of the output shafts of the drive motor 612 and rotates synchronously with the output shaft, while the second sprocket 93 is sleeved on the rotating shaft component 614 and rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft component 614; the chain 92 adopts a closed-loop structure and meshes between the first sprocket 91 and the second sprocket 93, so that the first sprocket 91 and the second sprocket 93 can rotate synchronously. In use, the drive motor 612 is started to drive the two first turntables 611 to rotate through the two output shafts. At the same time, the first sprocket 91 rotates synchronously with one of the output shafts and transmits the rotational force to the second sprocket 93 through the chain 92. Since the second sprocket 93 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft component 614, the rotating shaft component 614 drives the second turntable 613 to rotate, thereby realizing the synchronous rotation of the first turntable 611 and the second turntable 613.

[0068] In a further embodiment of this application, the positions of the connecting wire ropes of the first turntable 611 and the second turntable 613 can be set to opposite eccentric angles. Taking the axial sides of the first turntable 611 and the second turntable 613 in the up, down, left, and right directions as an example, the connection positions of the wire ropes of the first turntable 611 and the second turntable 613 are moved by rotation. When the connection position of the first turntable 611 and the wire rope is on the left, the connection position of the second turntable 613 and the wire rope is on the right. When the connection position of the first turntable 611 and the wire rope is above, the connection position of the second turntable 613 and the wire rope is below, and vice versa. Thus, when the wire rope pulls the two sides of the oscillating component 7, the two sides of the oscillating component 7 can move alternately up and down. That is to say, when one side of the oscillating component 7 rises, the other side falls, thereby increasing the intensity of the oscillation of the aquatic products in the oscillating component 7, so that the aquatic products can roll to a certain extent in the oscillating component 7, and the aquatic products can come into contact with the heat-conducting medium in multiple directions, thereby improving the quality of the blanching treatment of the aquatic products.

[0069] In a further embodiment of this application, the connection between the traction component 62, the drive assembly 61, and the wire rope can be achieved through connecting rings and / or hooks. Specifically, connecting rings can be installed on the axial outer surfaces of the first turntable 611 and the second turntable 613, as well as on the upper edge of the oscillating component 7, while hooks are provided on both ends of the wire rope, which is connected to the corresponding connecting rings via the hooks. Alternatively, one end of the wire rope connecting to the first turntable 611 and / or the second turntable 613 can be set as a connecting ring, and one end of the wire rope connecting to the oscillating component 7 can be set as a hook. This allows the other end of the wire rope to be connected to the oscillating component 7 without affecting rotation after the wire rope is connected to the first turntable 611 and the second turntable 613. Furthermore, the oscillating component 7 and the wire rope are easily disassembled and moved through the cooperation of the connecting rings and hooks. After the aquatic products have completed the blanching process, the wire rope can be disconnected from the oscillating component 7, allowing the oscillating component 7 to be transferred to the next processing station.

[0071] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in this application, before transferring the oscillating component 7 to the next processing station, it is necessary to move the oscillating component 7 out of the receiving chamber 102. To facilitate this operation, a solution is also proposed in the embodiments of this application. The aquatic product blanching device is also provided with a lifting mechanism 8 that drives the mounting bracket 5 to rise. Specifically, the mounting bracket 5 is set above the container body 1 through the lifting mechanism 8. When it is necessary to move the oscillating component 7 out of the receiving chamber 102, the lifting mechanism 8 drives the mounting bracket 5 to rise, so as to move the oscillating component 7 out of the receiving chamber 102 through four steel wire ropes, so as to disconnect the oscillating component 7 from the steel wire ropes and facilitate the transfer of the oscillating component 7 to the next processing station.

[0072] In one embodiment, the lifting mechanism 8 may include: an installation platform disposed on the side wall of the container body 1.

The piston rod of the active telescopic member 81 is connected to the mounting bracket 5 to provide a supporting force to the mounting bracket 5. Activating the active telescopic member 81 causes its piston rod to... During extension and retraction, the mounting bracket 5 can be raised and lowered above the container body 1. The driven telescopic member 82 can be a common telescopic rod. The driven telescopic member 82 is installed in the same way as the active telescopic member 81, with the bottom of the cylinder of the driven telescopic member 82 fixed to the mounting platform. The piston rod of the driven telescopic member 82 is connected to the mounting bracket 5 and can also provide a supporting force to the mounting bracket 5. The driven telescopic member 82 is used to further limit the lifting direction of the mounting bracket 5 to avoid the lifting direction of the mounting bracket 5 from deviating. In this embodiment, two driven telescopic members 82 are preferably provided, located on both sides of the active telescopic member 81.

[0073] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the sidewall of the container body 1 has a first receiving cavity 103, and the bottom wall of the container body 1 has a second receiving cavity 104; the aquatic product blanching device further includes: a first heating component 11, disposed in the first receiving cavity 103, and the first heating component 11 is arranged in a spiral manner to cover the sidewall of the container body 1 circumferentially; a second heating component 12, disposed in the second receiving cavity 104, and the second heating component 12 is arranged in a serpentine manner to cover the bottom wall of the container body 1; the first heating component 11 and the second heating component 12 are used to adjust the temperature of the heat-conducting medium in the receiving chamber 102.

[0074] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in this application, in order to adjust the temperature of the heat-conducting medium in the containment chamber 102, that is, to heat the heat-conducting medium, it is preferable that the side wall and bottom wall of the container body 1 be hollow. A first receiving cavity 103 is formed in the circumferential sidewall of the container body 1, and a first heating element 11 is disposed in the first receiving cavity 103. The first heating element 11 is arranged in a spiral manner in the first receiving cavity 103, thereby increasing the contact area between the first heating element 11 and the sidewall of the container body 1, so that the first heating element 11 can cover the circumferential sidewall of the container body 1, and the heat of the first heating element 11 is transferred to the heat-conducting medium in the receiving chamber 102 through the sidewall of the container body 1. A second receiving cavity 104 is formed in the bottom wall of the container body 1, and a second heating element 12 is disposed in the second receiving cavity 104. The second heating element 12 is arranged in a serpentine manner in the second receiving chamber 102, thereby increasing the contact area between the second heating element 12 and the bottom wall of the container body 1, so that the second heating element 12 can cover the bottom wall of the container body 1, and the heat of the second heating element 12 is transferred to the heat-conducting medium in the container chamber through the bottom wall of the container body 1. In this embodiment, the first heating element 11 and the second heating element 12 can be heating tubes, and the heating medium circulates inside the heating tubes.

[0075] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, it further includes: a bubble tube 4, disposed at the bottom of the receiving chamber 102, for connecting to a gas supply device, the bubble tube 4 having a plurality of air holes 40 for outputting gas in the receiving chamber 102, and the heat-conducting medium in the receiving chamber 102 being tumbled by the gas output from the bubble tube 4.

[0076] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in this application, in order to further improve the heat transfer efficiency of the heat transfer medium in the containment chamber 102 for the aquatic products, an air bubble tube 4 is also configured in the containment chamber 102. The air bubble tube 4 can be connected to the air supply equipment, and several air holes 40 connected to the containment chamber 102 are opened on the air bubble tube 4 to transmit the gas provided by the air supply equipment to the containment chamber 102, thereby causing the heat transfer medium in the containment chamber 102 to tumble, which can cooperate with the reciprocating lifting and lowering oscillating component 7, thereby enabling the heat transfer medium to come into more full contact with the aquatic products.
