Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal fat storage technology, and more specifically, to an animal fat storage tank that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of society, people's requirements for quality of life are constantly improving, and their pursuit of various delicacies is becoming increasingly diverse. Among them, animal fats, with their white color, lack of muttony smell, and rich content of various fatty acids, are widely used in the food industry, such as in butter biscuits and margarine. During the processing and production process, animal fats need to be packaged in storage tanks. Since animal fats are prone to solidification at room temperature, especially in low-temperature environments, they are usually solid. After the animal fats are consumed, the storage tanks need to be cleaned. However, solid fats often remain in the storage tanks. Solid fats are not only difficult to remove, but may also cause cross-contamination, affecting the quality of food used next time. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an easy-to-clean animal fat storage container to solve the problems of solid fats being difficult to remove and cross-contamination as mentioned in the background art.

[0004] This utility model provides an easy-to-clean animal fat storage container, including a cleaning device and a clamping device;

[0005] The cleaning device includes a workbench with a lead screw at the top center of the back of the workbench. Support rods are located on both sides of the lead screw. A top plate is located at the top of the lead screw and support rods. The lead screw passes through the top of the top plate and connects to the output end of a micro motor. A T-shaped plate is slidably mounted on the surface of the lead screw and support rods. The output end of the motor is located at the top of the T-shaped plate. The output end of the motor is connected to a central shaft passing through the T-shaped plate. A ring is connected to the bottom end of the central shaft. Inclined plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the ring. Brushes are mounted on the outer side of the inclined plates and the bottom end of the ring. A set of connecting rods is located in the middle of the central shaft, and each set of connecting rods connects to the opposite end of the inclined plates. A storage tank is movably mounted outside the brushes, and a flexible electric heating film is movably wrapped around the storage tank.

[0006] In this embodiment, the solidified grease on the inner sidewall of the storage tank is heated by a flexible electric heating film. A micro motor drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the T-shaped plate to rise and fall. The support rod keeps the T-shaped plate moving stably up and down during the lifting and lowering process. The motor drives the central shaft to rotate. Since the bottom end of the central shaft is connected to a ring and the two sides are connected to inclined plates, the rotation of the central shaft drives the ring and the inclined plates to rotate synchronously, so that the brushes of the ring and the inclined plates rub and clean the inner sidewall and bottom of the storage tank.

[0007] In one embodiment of this utility model, the clamping device includes support plates on both sides of the worktable, a threaded rod threadedly connected to the top center of each support plate, a clamping block on the opposite end of each threaded rod, a telescopic rod on both sides of the threaded rod at the distance between the clamping block and the support plate, and a rocker arm on the outside of the threaded rod.

[0008] In this solution, by rotating the rocker arm, the rocker arm drives the threaded rod and the clamping block to move outward or inward synchronously. The clamping block clamps or releases the storage tank, and the telescopic rod provides stability for the threaded rod.

[0009] In one embodiment of this utility model, a discharge pipe is provided in the middle of the bottom end of the storage tank and a control valve is provided on the outside. Support legs are provided at the four corners of the bottom end of the storage tank. A retaining ring is provided on the outside of the storage tank near the top end. The lid of the storage tank at the top end is fastened to the retaining ring by buckles around the perimeter.

[0010] In this solution, a discharge pipe is used in conjunction with a control valve to discharge the grease inside the storage tank. The control valve controls the flow rate of the discharged grease. The support legs provide good stability and height for the storage tank. The snap-fit ​​connection ring of the tank lid makes it easy for workers to open and close the tank lid.

[0011] In one embodiment of this utility model, the workbench is provided with support legs at all four corners of its bottom end and with casters with wheel brakes at the bottom end. The middle of each support leg is provided with a reinforcing rib, and one of the reinforcing ribs on one side is provided with a set of L-shaped plates.

[0012] In this design, the support legs provide height and stability to the workbench, the casters facilitate flexible movement of the workbench, and the L-shaped plate makes it easy to mount the tank lid.

[0013] In one embodiment of this utility model, bearing sleeves are provided on both the outside of the lead screw penetrating the top plate and the outside of the central shaft penetrating the T-shaped plate, a threaded sleeve is provided on the support plate located outside the threaded rod, and rubber pads are provided on the opposite ends of the clamping blocks.

[0014] In this solution, bearing sleeves reduce friction and wear between rotating and stationary components, threaded sleeves provide support for the threaded rod to ensure stability during rotation, and rubber pads increase friction between the clamping block and the storage tank.

[0015] In one embodiment of this utility model, a switch panel is provided on one side of the bottom end of the workbench, and a micro motor switch and a motor switch are respectively provided on the top of the switch panel. The flexible electric heating film is remotely controlled, and the switch panel is electrically connected to an external power supply.

[0016] In this solution, power is supplied to the electrical equipment through a switch panel, and independent switches provide independent protection for the electrical equipment.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] The flexible electric heating film, with its excellent thermal conductivity, is used to heat the solidified grease on the inner sidewalls of the storage tank, ensuring a suitable temperature during the cleaning process. This also enhances the solubility and cleaning effect of the cleaning agent. A micro motor drives the rotation of the lead screw, causing the T-shaped plate to rise and fall along the lead screw. The support rod limits the movement of the T-shaped plate, ensuring its stable up-and-down movement and preventing it from rotating. The motor drives the central shaft to rotate. Since the bottom of the central shaft is connected to a ring and the two sides are connected to inclined plates, the rotation of the central shaft causes the ring and inclined plates to rotate synchronously, allowing the brushes of the ring and inclined plates to rub and clean the inner sidewalls and bottom of the storage tank.
