Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dried bean curd processing technology, and in particular to a device for braising dried bean curd. Background Technology

[0002] Dried tofu, a traditional Chinese soy product, is a processed form of tofu. It is savory, refreshing, and firm yet chewy, and is a popular dish in various Chinese cuisines. Dried tofu is rich in nutrients, containing abundant protein, fat, and carbohydrates, as well as various minerals essential for the human body, such as calcium, phosphorus, and iron. During the braising process, salt, fennel, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, and dried ginger are added, resulting in a fragrant and flavorful dish that is enjoyed repeatedly and is often referred to as "vegetarian ham."

[0003] When braising dried tofu, the tofu, salt, fennel, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, dried ginger, and other seasonings are usually placed in a container, then an appropriate amount of water is added, and the container is heated to braise the tofu. However, during the braising process, on the one hand, the tofu tends to clump together, making it difficult to fully contact the braising liquid, resulting in uneven braising and thus reducing the taste of the braised tofu. On the other hand, after braising, the tofu is usually scooped out with a slotted spoon, which is inefficient and affects the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art where dried bean curd is easily piled up and squeezed during braising, resulting in uneven braising and low efficiency when removing the dried bean curd. Therefore, a dried bean curd braising device is proposed.

[0023] Example:

[0024] Reference Figures 1-4 A bean curd braising device includes a braising box 1, which is rectangular in shape. It also includes a cylindrical body 2 with a mesh. A braising trough 101 is formed inside the braising box 1. A lid is detachably attached to the top of the braising box 1, and the lid can be connected to the braising box 1 by bolts or latches, preferably by latches. A pipe 103 with a valve is fixedly installed at the bottom of the braising box 1, and one end of the pipe 103 is connected to the braising trough 101. During use, the valve can be opened on the pipe 103. The valve discharges the brine from the brine tank 101, and clean water can be added to the brine tank 101 through the pipe 103. A heating wire 102 for heating the brine tank 101 is fixedly installed inside the brine tank 1. The heating wire 102 is preferably electrically heated. To facilitate temperature monitoring, a temperature sensor is installed inside the brine tank 101. A pressure relief valve is fixedly installed on the tank cover. Guide grooves 104 are provided on both inner walls of the brine tank 101. A valve is fixedly installed at both ends of the cylinder 2. A fixed shaft 201 is provided, and a bearing 202 is fixedly mounted on the fixed shaft 201. The bearing 202 is positioned within a guide groove 104, which limits the bearing 202, facilitating the rotation of the cylinder 2 within the braising tank 101. A drive unit for rotating the fixed shaft 201 is provided inside the braising tank 1. A first stirring plate 206 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the cylinder 2. Multiple sets of lifting rings 204 are evenly arranged circumferentially on the outer wall of the cylinder 2. 4. There are two to ten sets of equipment. Here, we prefer eight sets. During use, by fixing the lifting rings 204 on the cylinder 2, after the braising is completed, the cylinder 2 can be lifted by the electric hoist on the lifting frame or by manual lifting, so as to easily remove the dried tofu inside the cylinder 2 as a whole, thus improving the use effect. The cylinder cover 3 is detachably installed on the side wall of the cylinder 2. By installing the cylinder cover 3 on the cylinder 2, it is easy to add dried tofu into the cylinder 2 or remove dried tofu, thus improving the use effect.

[0025] In use, the cylinder 2, which has a mesh and contains dried tofu, is rotated inside the braising tank 1. A first stirring plate 206 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cylinder 2. During the braising process, the cylinder 2 can be driven to rotate around the axis of the fixed shaft 201, which facilitates the stirring of the dried tofu inside, ensuring that the dried tofu and the braising liquid are in full contact. This helps to achieve uniform braising and improve the taste of the dried tofu. In addition, a lifting ring 204 is fixedly installed on the cylinder 2. After the braising is completed, the cylinder 2 can be lifted out of the braising tank 101 by the lifting device, which improves work efficiency.

[0026] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4Here, the drive unit is designed as follows: a rotating shaft is rotatably mounted within the guide groove 104, with a second gear and a third gear fixedly mounted at both ends of the rotating shaft. The axis of the rotating shaft is vertical, with the second gear located at the bottom of the rotating shaft. A first gear 203, meshing with the second gear, is fixedly mounted on one of the fixed shafts 201. A motor is fixedly mounted on the braising tank 1, and a fourth gear, meshing with the third gear, is fixedly mounted at the output end of the motor. In use, the cylinder 2 is placed inside the braising tank 101. The bearing 202 slides downward along the guide groove 104. After the cylinder 2 is installed in place, the bottom of the bearing 202 abuts against the inner bottom of the guide groove 104. At this time, under the action of gravity, the first gear 203 just meshes with the second gear. Then, the motor is started to drive the fourth gear to rotate. The fourth gear meshes with the third gear, driving the rotating shaft and the second gear to rotate. Then, through the meshing of the second gear and the first gear 203, the fixed shaft 201 and the cylinder 2 are driven to rotate, achieving the stirring effect. In addition, the cylinder 2 is easy to lift and lower, improving the use effect.

[0027] Reference Figures 2-4 A window is provided on the side wall of the cylinder 2. One end of the cylinder cover 3 is rotated and placed inside the window. Insertion holes 302 are provided on both sides of the other end of the cylinder cover 3. A handle 301 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the other end of the cylinder cover 3. An insertion rod 4 is slidably provided inside the cylinder 2, and one end of the insertion rod 4 extends into the insertion hole 302. A pull plate 402 is fixedly provided on the other end of the insertion rod 4. In use, by providing the cylinder cover 3 on the cylinder 2, the insertion rod 4 is pulled by the pull plate 402 to slide, so that it is disengaged from the insertion hole 302. At this time, the cylinder cover 3 can be opened, making it convenient to add dried bean curd into the cylinder 2 or pour the dried bean curd out of the cylinder 2, thus improving the use effect.

[0028] Reference Figure 3 A limiting groove 205 is provided inside the cylinder 2, and a limiting plate 401 is slidably provided in the limiting groove 205. The insertion rod 4 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 401, and a spring is sleeved on the insertion rod 4. The two ends of the spring abut against the limiting groove 205 and the limiting plate 401 respectively. In use, by sleeved on the insertion rod 4, the spring force can keep the insertion rod 4 always inserted into the insertion hole 302, preventing the cylinder cover 3 from opening during the curing of dried tofu and affecting normal use.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4A rotating plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the braising tank 101, and a stirring shaft 5 is rotatably installed on the rotating plate. A second stirring plate 501 is fixedly installed on the stirring shaft 5, and multiple sets of levers 502 are fixedly installed at both ends of the stirring shaft 5. There are two to twelve sets of levers 502, preferably ten sets. The levers 502 are matched with the lifting rings 204. In use, by fixing the lifting rings 204 on the cylinder 2, when the cylinder 2 rotates with the lifting rings 204, the lifting rings 204 will abut against the levers 502 and push the levers 502 to rotate appropriately. At this time, the stirring shaft 5 can be driven to rotate and stir the second stirring plate 501, thereby agitating the braising liquid at the bottom of the braising tank 101 and improving the braising effect.
