Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically to a popcorn seasoning temperature control device. Background Technology

[0002] Popcorn, as one of the most common foods in people's daily lives, is generally produced by heating and popping corn kernels, and then adding seasonings and stirring them according to different requirements. The process is completed at high temperatures simultaneously with the popping of the corn kernels.

[0003] The invention patent currently published under CN213216565U discloses a popcorn seasoning temperature control device. When the electromagnetic coil heats the pot, it provides auxiliary heating to the preheating plate, causing the pot to heat up rapidly. After the heater is turned off, the preheating plate maintains a high temperature inside the pot, ensuring timely and efficient heating of new batches of popcorn seasoning. The insulation layer effectively prevents heat loss, concentrating heat inside the pot and greatly increasing the efficiency of popcorn seasoning. The rotating spiral plate flips the popcorn and seasoning from the bottom of the pot to the top, ensuring even mixing. When unloading the pot, the rotating spiral plate further dissipates the popcorn and seasoning. The popcorn is conveyed to a slanted outlet and discharged onto a conveyor belt. The operation is simple and convenient, making it suitable for widespread use. This addresses the current problem of preparing popcorn by first heating oil and seasonings in a pot, then adding popcorn and stirring. After the popcorn and seasonings are fully mixed, the heating and stirring devices are turned off, and the pot is flipped to scrape out the popcorn for transport. However, when the pot is turned off and the popcorn is scraped out, the temperature inside drops rapidly, requiring reheating before adding more popcorn and seasonings. This prolonged heating time reduces the efficiency of popcorn preparation, and the cumbersome process of flipping and scraping results in uneven mixing, affecting the taste of the popcorn.

[0004] In existing popcorn machines, the pot is under normal pressure during use, and the temperature inside the pot fluctuates greatly during heating, making it difficult to accurately control the temperature during popcorn processing. At the same time, the popcorn process requires a long heating time, resulting in significant energy loss. To solve the above problems, this application proposes a popcorn seasoning temperature control device. Utility Model Content

[0005] (I) Purpose of the utility model

[0006] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes a popcorn seasoning temperature control device. The popcorn pot is in a closed state, and during the heating process, the inside of the popcorn pot is kept under high pressure. When the maximum temperature for popcorn heating is reached inside the popcorn pot, heating is stopped. Since the inside of the popcorn pot is still under high pressure and the surface is covered with a heat-insulating layer, the inside of the popcorn pot can be kept at a high temperature for a long time, which can reduce energy loss, make it more environmentally friendly, and make temperature control more precise, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a popcorn seasoning temperature control device, including a popcorn pot, a pot lid and a rotating connecting seat. The pot lid is rotatably connected to the popcorn pot through the rotating connecting seat. A heating base is provided below the popcorn pot. The bottom of the popcorn pot is inserted into the heating base. A heating plate is provided in the inner cavity of the heating base. The lower surface of the popcorn pot is in contact with the heating plate.

[0009] A drive motor is installed on the upper surface of the pot lid. The power output end of the drive motor is connected to an upper drive disk. A stirring paddle is rotatably provided inside the popcorn pot. A lower drive disk is connected to the top of the stirring paddle. The lower drive disk and the upper drive disk are attracted to each other.

[0010] Preferably, a temperature display is installed on the surface of the popcorn pot, and a temperature sensor is embedded in the inner wall of the popcorn pot. The temperature sensor is electrically connected to the temperature display via a wire.

[0011] Preferably, a pressure relief valve and a pressure gauge are installed on the upper surface of the pot lid, and the pressure relief valve and pressure gauge are located on both sides of the drive motor.

[0016] The above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0017] 1. In this utility model, the popcorn pot is in a closed state. During the heating process, the popcorn pot is under high pressure. When the maximum temperature for popcorn heating is reached, the heating is stopped. Since the popcorn pot is still under high pressure and the surface is covered with a heat insulation layer, the popcorn pot can maintain a high temperature for a long time, which can reduce energy loss, make it more environmentally friendly, and make temperature control more precise.

[0018] 2. In this utility model, the drive motor drives the upper drive disk, and the upper drive disk and the lower drive disk attract each other, which can synchronously drive the stirring paddle to rotate inside the popcorn pot.

The popcorn pot 1 can be heated by the heating plate 5. The lid 2 is opened by the handle, and corn kernels are placed into the popcorn pot 1. The lid 2 can be locked by the latch 6 to keep the popcorn pot 1 in a closed state. During the heating process, the popcorn pot 1 is kept under high pressure. The pressure gauge 13 can detect the pressure inside the popcorn pot 1 to improve safety during use. The drive motor 7 drives the upper drive disk 8, and the upper drive disk 8 and the lower drive disk 11... The mutual attraction drives the stirring paddle 9 to rotate inside the popcorn pot 1. The stirring paddle 9 agitates the corn kernels, making the kernels heat more evenly. The temperature display 14 and temperature sensor 15 work together to detect the temperature inside the popcorn pot 1. When the maximum temperature for popcorn heating is reached inside the popcorn pot 1, heating stops. Since the popcorn pot 1 is still under high pressure and is covered with an insulation layer 16, it can maintain a high temperature for a long time, reducing energy loss and making it more environmentally friendly. After the pressure relief valve 12 is opened, the pressure inside the popcorn pot 1 can be released.
