Description

A horizontal tumbling device for pork processing Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of horizontal tumbling machine technology, specifically a horizontal tumbling device for pork processing. Background Technology

[0002] A horizontal tumbler is a piece of equipment used in food processing, primarily for marinating and tenderizing meat products such as meat and fish. The working principle of a horizontal tumbler involves mechanical tumbling, beating, and squeezing, combined with a vacuum or normal pressure environment, to thoroughly mix the meat with the marinade, thereby altering the physical structure of the meat to achieve tenderization, marinating, and improved water retention.

[0003] In the horizontal tumbling device for pork processing, the rotation of the drum causes the meat pieces to tumble and beat under the action of baffles or stirring protrusions, breaking down the muscle fiber structure and promoting the penetration of marinade. After completing a batch of processing, existing horizontal tumbling devices for pork processing often leave meat scraps, fat fragments, and marinades (such as salt, sugar, phosphates, etc.) inside the tumbling drum, especially in areas far from the inlet and outlet. Meat scraps that are not cleaned for a long time may harden and stick to the inner wall of the tumbling drum, affecting the subsequent tumbling effect and food safety. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a horizontal tumbling device for pork processing, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that after a batch of processing is completed, the inside of the tumbling drum often has residual meat scraps, fat fragments, and marinades (such as salt, sugar, phosphates, etc.), especially in areas far from the inlet and outlet. Meat scraps that have not been cleaned for a long time may harden and stick to the inner wall of the tumbling drum, affecting the subsequent tumbling effect and food safety.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a horizontal tumbling device for pork processing, comprising a base frame and a tumbling section:

[0006] The base frame is rotatably mounted on top, and the tumbling part is mounted on top of the base frame. The tumbling part has a tumbling barrel that is horizontally rotatably mounted on top of the rotatable frame. The tumbling barrel has stirring protrusions inside, and an inlet / outlet is provided at one end of the tumbling barrel. A slide is horizontally slidably mounted inside the stirring protrusions. The slide slides to move the residual material inside the tumbling barrel toward the inlet / outlet.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the residue inside the tumbling drum can be automatically cleaned. The reciprocating motion of the slide pushes the meat mint, marinade and other residues attached to the inner wall of the tumbling drum and the stirring protrusions toward the inlet and outlet, effectively solving the problem of incomplete cleaning of traditional tumbling machines, improving the hygiene standards of the equipment and avoiding cross-contamination between batches.

[0008] Preferably, the base frame also has a support frame set on the top of the base frame, the two sides of the rotating frame are embedded in the support frame and rotatably connected to the support frame, and a hydraulic rod is set on the top of the base frame, the other end of the hydraulic rod being connected to the rotating frame.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the tilt angle of the rotating frame can be adjusted by hydraulic rods, which facilitates the formation of a drainage slope in the tumbling drum during cleaning. At the same time, the tumbling angle can be adjusted according to different process requirements during production to optimize the tumbling effect of meat pieces.

[0010] Preferably, the base frame also has several pulleys rotatably mounted on the top of the rotating frame, which abut against the outer wall of the tumbling drum.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the rolling support of the pulley can be used to significantly reduce the frictional resistance when the tumbling drum rotates, improve the transmission efficiency of the motor, reduce the operating noise of the equipment, and extend the service life of the bearings.

[0012] Preferably, the tumbling section also has a transmission box disposed on the side of the rotating frame, a motor disposed on the side of the transmission box, the output end of the motor being connected to the transmission box, and the transmission output end of the transmission box being connected to one end of the tumbling drum.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, a reduction gearbox can provide stable torque output and enhance the kneading effect of meat chunks.

[0014] Preferably, there are two stirring protrusions, and the two stirring protrusions are arranged in a central rotational symmetric structure around the rotation center of the tumbling drum.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the symmetrically distributed stirring bumps can form a balanced material flow during the tumbling process, preventing meat chunks from accumulating on one side.

[0016] Preferably, the tumbling section also has grooves formed on both sides of the slide, and the two stirring protrusions are embedded in the two grooves and are laterally slidably connected to the slide.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide structure of the chute can ensure that the carriage always remains horizontal during reciprocating motion, which can effectively scrape off the residue without excessively abrading the barrel wall.

[0018] Preferably, the tumbling section also has a rubber ring surrounding the side of the carriage, which abuts against the inner wall of the tumbling drum.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic properties of the rubber ring can adapt to the slight deformation of the inner wall of the tumbling drum while ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0020] Preferably, the tumbling section also has a pull rod disposed on the side of the carriage, and a handle is provided at the end of the pull rod away from the carriage.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the slide can be manually pulled by the handle for localized and enhanced cleaning.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by setting up a tumbling section, the residue inside the tumbling drum can be automatically cleaned. The reciprocating motion of the slide pushes the residue such as minced meat and marinade adhering to the inner wall of the tumbling drum and the stirring protrusions toward the inlet and outlet, effectively solving the problem of incomplete cleaning of traditional tumbling machines, improving the hygiene standards of the equipment, and avoiding cross-contamination between batches.

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1, 2, and 3. This embodiment provides a technical solution: a horizontal tumbling device for pork processing, including a base frame 1 and a tumbling section 2.

[0033] A rotating frame 103 is rotatably mounted on the top of the base frame 1. The two sides of the rotating frame 103 are embedded in the support frame 101 and rotatably connected to the support frame 101. A hydraulic rod 102 is mounted on the top of the base frame 1. The other end of the hydraulic rod 102 is connected to the rotating frame 103. The tilt angle of the rotating frame 103 can be adjusted by the hydraulic rod 102 to facilitate the formation of a drainage slope in the tumbling drum 201 during cleaning. At the same time, the tumbling angle can be adjusted according to different process requirements during production to optimize the tumbling effect of the meat pieces.

[0034] The tumbling section 2 is located on the top of the base frame 1. The tumbling section 2 has a tumbling drum 201 that is horizontally rotated on the top of the rotating frame 103. The inside of the tumbling drum 201 is provided with stirring protrusions 202. One end of the tumbling drum 201 is provided with an inlet / outlet 203. A slide 206 is horizontally slidably arranged inside the stirring protrusions 202. The slide 206 slides to drive the residue inside the tumbling drum 201 to move towards the inlet / outlet 203, which can realize the automatic cleaning of the residue inside the tumbling drum 201. Through the reciprocating motion of the slide 206, the meat mince, marinade and other residues attached to the inner wall of the tumbling drum 201 and the stirring protrusions 202 are pushed towards the inlet / outlet 203, which effectively solves the problem of incomplete cleaning of traditional tumbling machines, improves the hygiene standards of the equipment, and avoids cross-contamination between batches.

[0035] The desired effect of this embodiment is as follows.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] Please refer to Figures 4, 5, and 6. This embodiment provides a technical solution: a horizontal tumbling device for pork processing, including a tumbling section 2, stirring protrusions 202, and a slide 206.

[0038] Several pulleys 104 are rotatably arranged on the top of the rotating frame 103. The pulleys 104 abut against the outer wall of the tumbling drum 201. The rolling support of the pulleys 104 can greatly reduce the frictional resistance when the tumbling drum 201 rotates, improve the transmission efficiency of the motor 205, reduce the operating noise of the equipment, and extend the service life of the bearings.

[0039] A transmission box 204 is fixedly installed on the side of the rotating frame 103. The fixing method is an existing detachable fixing, such as bolt connection, snap connection, etc. A motor 205 is installed on the side of the transmission box 204. The output end of the motor 205 is connected to the transmission box 204. The transmission output end of the transmission box 204 is connected to one end of the tumbling drum 201. A reduction transmission box 204 can be used to provide stable torque output and enhance the kneading effect of meat pieces.

[0040] There are two stirring protrusions 202. The two stirring protrusions 202 are arranged in a central rotational symmetric structure along the rotation center of the tumbling drum 201. The symmetrically distributed stirring protrusions 202 can form a balanced material flow during the tumbling process, avoiding the accumulation of meat pieces on one side.

[0041] The slide 206 is symmetrically provided with grooves 207 on both sides. Two stirring protrusions 202 are embedded in the two grooves 207 and are slidably connected to the slide 206 laterally. The guide structure of the grooves 207 can ensure that the slide 206 always remains horizontal during reciprocating motion, which can effectively scrape off the residue without excessively abrading the barrel wall.

[0042] A rubber ring 208 is provided around the side of the slide 206. The rubber ring 208 abuts against the inner wall of the tumbling drum 201. The elastic properties of the rubber ring 208 can adapt to the slight deformation of the inner wall of the tumbling drum 201 while ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0043] A pull rod 209 is fixedly installed on the side of the slide 206. The fixing method is an existing detachable fixing, such as bolt connection, buckle connection, etc. A handle is provided at the end of the pull rod 209 away from the slide 206. The slide 206 can be manually pulled by the handle for localized and intensified cleaning.

[0044] The desired effect of this second embodiment is as follows.

[0045] Working principle: First, the device is powered on. Then, during the processing stage, the motor 205 drives the tumbling drum 201 to rotate through the transmission box 204. The hydraulic rod 102 is adjusted to the working angle, and the stirring protrusion 202 drives the meat pieces to tumble. During the cleaning stage, the hydraulic rod 102 adjusts the tumbling drum 201 to the cleaning angle. The operator can drive the slide 206 to slide through the pull rod 209, so that the slide 206 moves back and forth along the stirring protrusion 202 in the tumbling drum 201. The rubber ring 208 scrapes off the residue on the drum wall and pushes it towards the inlet and outlet 203 to ensure that stubborn residues are thoroughly removed. The entire working process achieves seamless connection between processing and cleaning, which greatly improves the efficiency of equipment use and hygiene standards.
