Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of frozen fish processing technology, specifically to a surface de-icing device for frozen fish processing. Background Technology
[0002] Frozen fish processing technology extends the shelf life and maintains the quality of fish through freezing. The main steps include: selecting fresh fish, pre-processing such as cleaning, scaling, gutting, and cutting; rapidly freezing the fish to below -18°C using quick-freezing technology (such as liquid nitrogen freezing), followed by deep freezing; vacuum or modified atmosphere packaging, storage in cold storage below -18°C, and transportation via cold chain. Hygiene management and quality testing are emphasized during processing to ensure product safety. Technological innovations such as ultra-low temperature freezing and intelligent processing improve efficiency and meet market demand for healthy and diverse frozen fish products.
[0003] Existing de-icing technologies for frozen fish include various methods aimed at efficiently removing ice and minimizing damage to the fish. Mechanical de-icing and water bath de-icing are two common techniques. Mechanical de-icing uses brushes, rollers, or vibrating devices to physically remove the ice layer from the surface of the frozen fish. It is simple to operate and low in cost, making it suitable for large-scale production, but it may cause slight damage to the fish's surface. Water bath de-icing involves immersing the frozen fish in water slightly above freezing point, using the water temperature to melt the ice. This method removes ice evenly and causes minimal damage to the fish, making it suitable for various fish species. However, it consumes more water, and the water temperature and immersion time must be carefully controlled to avoid affecting the fish's flavor and nutritional components.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned ice removal technology for frozen fish still has the following problems: most ice removal devices for frozen fish only use one ice removal technology, which can easily lead to incomplete thawing, and the more widely used ice removal devices can cause greater damage to the surface of the fish.
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, a surface de-icing device for frozen fish processing is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a surface de-icing device for frozen fish processing, which solves the problems of the previous de-icing technology being singular, incomplete thawing, and causing significant damage to the fish.

[0025] Combination Figure 1 This utility model discloses a surface de-icing device for frozen fish processing, comprising a base 1 and a roller 15. A motor placement platform 2 is fixedly connected to the left side of the base 1 for placing a vibration motor 3. A heating base 11 is fixedly connected to the right side of the base 1 for placing a heating tube, a power supply, and providing support. A feeding platform 8 is fixedly connected to the right side of the heating base 11, through which frozen fish enters the device. A support base 4 is fixedly connected to the left side of the motor placement platform 2 for fixed support. Springs 14 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the top of the base 1 and the support base 4 to facilitate vibration de-icing. Fixing blocks 13 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the base 1 and the support base 4. An inclined strainer 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the springs 14, through which ice chips dislodged by vibration can be removed. A brine pool 5 is provided on the left side of the strainer 7 for water bath de-icing.
[0026] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3A power supply 10 is fixedly connected to the front of the heating base 11 to supply power to the heating rods. The bottom right side of the drain plate 7 is provided with evenly distributed heating rods 9, and the heating rods 9 are fixedly connected to the top of the heating base 11 to heat the drain plate, making it easier to remove ice crystals from the surface of the frozen fish. The inside of the brine pool 5 is provided with brine 6, which can dissolve ice blocks faster. Baffles 19 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the drain plate 7 to prevent the frozen fish from sliding out of the drain plate 7. A vibration motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the motor placement platform 2 to vibrate the drain plate to remove ice. A motor connecting block 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the vibration motor 3, and the top of the motor connecting block 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drain plate 7, which serves to connect the motor and the drain plate. The tops of the fixing blocks 13 on both sides of the base 1 are respectively fixedly connected to the left claw drive motor 6 and the right claw drive motor 21, which serve to drive the claws.
[0027] Combination Figure 4 The output ends of the left claw drive motor 6 and the right claw drive motor 21 are respectively fixedly connected to the left claw 17 and the right claw 18, and the left claw 17 and the right claw 18 are staggered. The two claws work together to hold the frozen fish, which is convenient for vibration to remove ice. The top of the fixing block 13 on the front side of the support base 4 is fixedly connected to the roller drive motor 22, and the output end of the roller drive motor 22 is fixedly connected to one end of the roller 15 to drive the roller to rotate. The outer surface of the roller 15 is fixedly connected to the bristles 16. The rotation of the roller drives the bristles to remove ice.
[0028] Working principle: The start motor 10 powers the heating rod 9, while the left claw drive motor 6 and the right claw drive motor 21 drive the left claw 17 and right claw 18 to open. The drum drive motor 22 starts and drives the drum 15 to rotate. At this time, the worker puts the frozen fish into the feeding platform 8. The frozen fish flows through the upper perforated plate area of the heating rod 9, where the temperature rises and the fish is heated to remove ice. When the frozen fish reaches the area under the left claw 17 and right claw 18, the left claw 17 and right claw 18 fall down and hold the frozen fish. At this time, the vibration motor 3 starts and vibrates the perforated plate 7. After the vibration de-icing is completed, the left claw 17 and right claw 18 open and release the frozen fish. The frozen fish continues to slide down and reaches the area of the drum 15, where it is de-iced by the rotating bristles 16 on the drum 15. Finally, it slides into the brine tank 5 and soaks in the brine for the final water bath de-icing.
