[0026] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a meat smoking oven of this utility model includes a smoking chamber 5, a smoke conveying mechanism 1, a rotating hanging mechanism 3, and a cleaning mechanism 4. The rotating hanging mechanism 3 is installed inside the smoking chamber 5. The smoke conveying mechanism 1 is connected to the inside of the smoking chamber 5. An inlet and outlet are provided on one side of the smoking chamber 5, and the cleaning mechanism 4 is provided on the other side of the smoking chamber 5.
[0028] The cleaning mechanism 4 includes a receiving chamber 401, a first rotating drive 402, two turntables 406, a rotating brush assembly, and an arc-shaped baffle plate 403. A cleaning port 7 is provided on the other side of the fumigation chamber 5. The receiving chamber 401 is connected to the cleaning port 7. A turntable 406 is rotatably connected to both the upper and lower parts of the receiving chamber 401. One side of one turntable 406 is connected to the other side of the other turntable 406 through the rotating brush assembly. The other side of one turntable 406 is connected to the other side of the other turntable 406 through the arc-shaped baffle plate 403. The arc-shaped baffle plate 403 is movably connected to the cleaning port 7. The first rotating drive 402 is drivenly connected to one of the turntables 406.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In actual production and use, when meat needs to be smoked, the meat can be hung one by one on the rotating hanging mechanism 3. Then, burning charcoal or wood is placed inside the smoke conveying mechanism 1, and the smoke conveying mechanism 1 is operated so that the smoke generated inside the smoke conveying mechanism 1 enters the smoking chamber 5 to smoke the meat. During the smoking process, the rotating hanging mechanism 3 can be operated to continuously turn the meat, thereby making the meat smoked more evenly. After smoking is completed, the first rotating drive 402 can be operated to make the rotating drive 40... 6 drives the arc-shaped baffle plate 403 and the rotating brush assembly to rotate, thereby causing the arc-shaped baffle plate 403 to disengage from the cleaning port 7, and allowing the rotating brush assembly to extend into the smoke chamber 5 through the cleaning port 7. Then, the rotating brush assembly is operated to clean the surface of the meat. Furthermore, by operating the rotating hanging mechanism 3, the uncleaned meat can be rotated to the cleaning port 7 for cleaning, making the cleaning more thorough. When the smoking action is in progress in the smoke chamber 5, the arc-shaped baffle plate 403 rotates to the position of the cleaning port 7, so that the arc-shaped baffle plate 403 blocks the smoke chamber 5 and the rotating brush assembly, preventing ash from adhering to the rotating brush assembly.
[0030] Furthermore, the rotating brush assembly includes a second rotating drive member 404 and a brush roller 405. The two ends of the brush roller 405 are rotatably connected to a turntable 406. The second rotating drive member 404 is disposed on the turntable 406 and is rotatably driven connected to the brush roller 405.
[0031] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to clean the surface of the smoked meat, the brush roller 405 can be rotated to the cleaning port 7 position first, and then the second rotation drive 404 can be operated to drive the brush roller 405 to sweep the surface of the meat, thereby sweeping off the ash adhering to the surface of the meat.
[0032] Furthermore, the rotating hanging mechanism 3 includes a rotation drive assembly, a rotating shaft 306, a hanging plate 307, and several flipping components. The upper part of the rotating shaft 306 is rotatably connected to the top of the smoke chamber 5. The hanging plate 307 is provided on the outer surface of the lower part of the rotating shaft 306. Several flipping components are arranged around the hanging plate 307. The rotation drive assembly is drivenly connected to the rotating shaft 306. A flue 301 is provided in the middle of the rotating shaft 306. The smoke conveying mechanism 1 is connected to the flue 301.
[0033] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to move the meat to the cleaning port 7 for cleaning, the rotation drive component can be operated, so that the rotation drive component drives the hanging plate 307 to rotate through the rotating shaft 306, so that the meat hanging on the flipping component can rotate to the cleaning port 7 for cleaning.
[0034] Furthermore, the flipping assembly includes a third rotation drive 304 and a hook 305. The upper part of the hook 305 is rotatably connected to the hanging tray 307, and the lower part of the hook 305 is provided with a piercing part. The third rotation drive 304 is rotatably driven connected to the hook 305.
[0035] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to clean the surface of the meat hanging at the cleaning port 7 more thoroughly, the third rotating drive 304 can be operated, so that the third rotating drive 304 drives the meat to turn over through the hook 305, thereby allowing the brush roller 405 to clean the meat all around.
[0036] Furthermore, the smoke conveying mechanism 1 includes a fan 102, a combustion chamber 103, several placement nets 104, a smoke inlet pipe 101, a smoke dispersing pipe 105, and a first door. The combustion chamber 103 has a first smoke outlet at its upper part, which is connected to the upper part of the flue 301 through the smoke inlet pipe 101. The lower part of the flue 301 is connected to the smoke dispersing pipe 105, which is located inside the smoke chamber 5. Several smoke dispersing ports are provided on the smoke dispersing pipe 105. An air inlet is provided at the lower part of the combustion chamber 103, and the fan 102 is connected to the air inlet. Several placement nets 104 are arranged from top to bottom inside the combustion chamber 103, and each placement net 104 is located above the air inlet. A fuel supply port is provided on one side of the combustion chamber 103, and the first door is hinged to the fuel supply port.
[0037] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to transport smoke, charcoal fuel can be placed on the placement net 104 through the fuel feeding port for combustion. Then, the first door is closed to prevent smoke from escaping from the fuel feeding port. Then, the blower 102 is run to transport the generated smoke through the smoke inlet pipe 101 to the inside of the flue 301, and then through the smoke distribution pipe 105 to the inside of the smoking chamber 5 for meat smoking.
[0038] Furthermore, it also includes a smoke exhaust pipe 2, and the upper part of the smoke chamber 5 is also provided with a smoke exhaust port, on which the smoke exhaust pipe 2 is provided.
[0039] As can be seen from the above description, the smoke after smoking can be discharged outside the device through the smoke exhaust pipe 2.
[0040] Furthermore, it also includes a second door 6, one side of which is hinged to one side of the inlet / outlet, and the other side of which is detachably connected to the other side of the inlet / outlet.
[0041] As can be seen from the above description, when it is conducive to fumigation, the entrance and exit are closed through the second door 6 to prevent the smoke from spreading.
[0042] Furthermore, it also includes a PLC controller, which is electrically connected to the smoke conveying mechanism 1, the rotating hanging mechanism 3, and the cleaning mechanism 4, respectively.
[0043] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to adjust the parameters of the meat smoking oven through the PLC controller, and to make it more convenient for operators to operate the meat smoking oven. Example 1
