Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ham processing technology, and in particular to a ham drying hook structure. Background Technology

[0002] In the ham-making process, the ham needs to be air-dried. After being salted, the ham needs to be hung on hooks in a well-ventilated environment with controlled temperature and humidity for a long time to allow the moisture to evaporate slowly. Dehydration can inhibit bacterial growth, thereby extending the shelf life of the ham. During the air-drying process, the enzymes and microorganisms inside the ham will break down proteins and fats, producing amino acids, fatty acids and other substances, forming a unique flavor.

[0003] During the air-drying process of ham, two methods are used: direct hooking and binding and hanging. Direct hooking is suitable for hams with regular shape and moderate weight. The hook can be directly passed through the bone crevices or tough parts of the ham (such as the hoof) to ensure stable hanging. If the ham meat is soft or irregular in shape (such as boneless ham), rope is used to wrap and fix it to prevent deformation. In particular, when the muscle contracts during the air-drying process, the rope can maintain the cylindrical shape or specific shape of the ham.

[0004] In existing technologies, straight-hook metal hooks are mostly used in the ham drying process. However, this has certain problems. When the hook is hung on the rope, it may shift due to external impact. If the displacement is too large, the hook may come off, causing the ham to fall to the ground. Also, when drying ham, it is not directly hung on the hook. Instead, the ham is tied with a rope and then the rope is tied to the hook. However, the rope is usually knotted before being hung on the hook. This makes the connection between the rope and the hook relatively weak, which may lead to the rope breaking. Therefore, we urgently need a ham drying hook structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem in the prior art that the connection between the hook and the rope is relatively weak and leads to breakage when the rope is tied to the hook. Therefore, a ham processing air-drying hook structure is proposed.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A ham processing air-drying hook structure includes a hook, which mainly consists of a straight rod and a bent part. One end of the straight rod is threadedly connected to a connector. The hook also includes a detachable latch mounted on the straight rod, on which an elastic rope is fixedly mounted. The other end of the elastic rope is rotatably connected to a cap. When the cap engages with the bent part, an annular closed space is formed. A spiral groove is formed on the bent part. A binding rope is detachably mounted on the straight rod, and the other end of the binding rope is wound inside the spiral groove to increase the contact area between the binding rope and the bent part.

[0008] In order to connect the buckle to the hook, preferably, a circular through hole is provided on the straight rod, and the buckle is disposed in the circular through hole.

[0009] To prevent the ham from slipping, preferably, a threaded ring is provided at the hook tip of the bend. When the cap contacts the threaded ring on the hook tip, the cap is threadedly connected to the hook tip to form a protective part.

[0010] To improve the strength of the connection between the rope and the hook, preferably, a through hole is provided on the straight rod, the rope is located in the through hole, and a buckle is installed on the rope. When the rope is wrapped around the ham, the buckle engages with the rope.

[0011] To further secure the binding rope, a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the straight rod, and the binding rope is fastened to the connecting frame via a connecting ring.

[0012] To connect the hook to the rope, preferably, the connector includes a threaded groove at the top of the straight rod, a screw threadedly connected to the threaded groove, a U-shaped frame fixedly mounted on the screw, a rotating rod threadedly connected to the U-shaped frame, and a clamping plate rotatably connected to the rotating rod and located inside the U-shaped frame. When the rotating rod is twisted, the clamping plate moves closer to or away from the bottom wall of the U-shaped frame.

[0013] To ensure the performance of the binding rope, it is preferable that the binding rope is made of polyurethane.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a ham processing air-drying hook structure, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The ham processing and drying hook structure features a detachable cap design that protects the hook tip from accidental contact and prevents injury. It also closes the ham connection point to prevent the ham from detaching from the hook under external force.

[0016] 2. The structure of the ham drying hook is designed with connecting parts. When the screw is turned, the height of the hook off the ground can be adjusted. When the rotating rod is turned, the clamping plate can be connected to the hanging rope, thus preventing the hook from falling off the hanging rope under the action of external force.

[0017] The parts of this device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. This invention improves the stability of ham placement, prevents ham from coming off the hook, and also improves the strength of the connection between the rope and the hook, preventing the rope from breaking.

[0025] Example:

[0026] Reference Figures 1-4A ham drying hook structure includes a hook 1, which mainly consists of a straight rod and a bent part. It also includes a latch 2 detachably mounted on the straight rod. A circular through hole 12 is provided on the straight rod, and the latch 2 is disposed within the circular through hole 12. The latch 2 is detachable and used to connect with the circular through hole 12. An elastic rope 3 is fixedly mounted on the latch 2, and the other end of the elastic rope 3 is rotatably connected to a cap 4. When the cap 4 is engaged with the bent part, a ring-shaped sealed space is formed to prevent the ham from slipping off. Here, when the ham is hooked on the bend of the hook 1, the elastic rope 3 is pulled and the cap 4 is moved to the hook tip on the bend and fastened, thereby sealing the opening of the bend and preventing the ham from detaching from the hook 1. The hook tip of the bend is provided with a threaded ring 13. When the cap 4 contacts the threaded ring 13 on the hook tip, the cap 4 is threadedly connected to the hook tip to form a protective part. Here, the cap 4 can also be threadedly connected to the hook tip of the bend to strengthen the connection between the cap 4 and the hook tip and prevent the cap 4 from falling off.

[0027] A binding rope 6 is detachably installed on the straight rod. The binding rope 6 is made of polyurethane, possessing strong wear resistance, aging resistance, and tear resistance. A through hole 14 is provided on the rod, and the binding rope 6 is located within the through hole 14. A buckle 15 is installed on the binding rope 6. When the binding rope 6 is wrapped around the ham, the buckle 15 engages with the binding rope 6. A spiral groove 5 is provided on the bend, and the other end of the binding rope 6 is wrapped within the spiral groove 5, increasing the contact area between the binding rope 6 and the bend. Here, when it is necessary to use the binding rope 6 to wrap the ham, the binding rope 6 is threaded through the through hole. Within 14, one end of the binding rope 6 is directly wrapped around the straight rod. The other end of the binding rope 6 is first wrapped around the spiral groove 5, and then wrapped around the ham. After wrapping, the binding rope 6 is connected to the buckle 15 to fix the ham. The binding rope 6 can also be fixed to the connecting frame 16 welded on the straight rod to strengthen the connection between the binding rope 6 and the straight rod. The binding rope 6 can also be fastened to the connecting frame 16 through the connecting ring to prevent the binding rope 6 from falling off. This improves the connection strength between the binding rope 6 and the hook 1 and prevents the binding rope 6 from breaking.

[0028] A connector threaded onto the straight rod provides a stable hooking effect. The connector includes a threaded groove 7 at the top of the straight rod, a screw 8 threaded into the groove 7, a U-shaped frame 9 fixedly mounted on the screw 8, a rotating rod 10 threaded onto the U-shaped frame 9, and a clamping plate 11 rotatably connected to the rotating rod 10 and located inside the U-shaped frame 9. When the rotating rod 10 is twisted, the clamping plate 11 moves closer to or further away from the bottom wall of the U-shaped frame 9. Twisting the screw 8 can adjust the height of the hook 1 off the ground, and twisting the rotating rod 10 can connect the clamping plate 11 to the hanging rope, thereby preventing the hook 1 from falling off the hanging rope under external force.

[0029] In this invention, the U-shaped frame 9 is placed at the hanging rope position. The rotating rod 10 is twisted to move the clamping plate 11 downward and make it contact with the hanging rope, thus limiting the hook 1. The screw 8 is twisted to adjust the ground clearance of the hook 1. As needed, the binding rope 6 can be threaded into the through hole 14 and then connected to the connecting frame 16 through the connecting ring. The other end is wrapped in the spiral groove 5 and then wrapped with the ham and knotted to fix the binding rope 6 to the ham. The buckle 15 is then fastened to the binding rope 6. If the ham is fixed directly through the hook tip on the hook 1, after the ham and hook 1 are combined, the lock 2 is connected to the circular through hole 12, and the elastic rope 3 is pulled to move the cap 4 to the hook tip position and threadedly connected to the threaded ring 13 to cover the opening of the hook 1 and prevent the ham from falling off the hook 1.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
