[0027] Example:
[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a rapid thawing device for pet food production, including a support frame 1. A water-filled treatment tank 2 is fixedly connected to the support frame 1. Two symmetrically arranged electric heating tubes 15 are installed on the bottom wall of the treatment tank 2. When the two electric heating tubes 15 are energized, they heat the water inside the treatment tank 2, increasing the water temperature. A mounting plate 3 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 1. A first drive motor 4 is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting plate 3. A drive shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first drive motor 4. A first connecting gear 6 is fixedly connected to one end of the first drive motor 4. A connecting shaft 7 is horizontally arranged on the support frame 1. A second connecting gear 8, which meshes with the first connecting gear 6, is fixedly sleeved on the connecting shaft 7. Two adjusting plates 9 are fixedly sleeved on the connecting shaft 7. Guide rods 10 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 1 near the four corners. A connecting frame 11 is slidably sleeved on the four guide rods 10. The two adjusting plates 9 are symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the connecting shaft 7. Both adjusting plates 9 abut against the lower surface of the connecting frame 11. The center of the lower surface of the connecting frame 11 is fixed. A support rod 12 is fixedly connected to the support rod 12, and a mounting frame 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support rod 12. A mesh plate 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 13. The meat raw material to be thawed is placed on top of the mesh plate 14. The first drive motor 4 is started. Four tension springs 20 are fixedly connected between the lower surface of the connecting frame 11 and the upper surface of the support frame 1. The first drive motor 4 drives the drive shaft 5 and the first connecting gear 6 to rotate. Through meshing transmission, the second connecting gear 8 and the connecting shaft 7 rotate in opposite directions. The four tension springs 20 are located on the outside of the four guide rods 10 respectively. Two adjusting plates 9 follow the connection. The shaft 7 rotates synchronously. During the rotation of the two adjusting plates 9, in conjunction with the four tension springs 20, the connecting frame 11 can be driven to move up and down reciprocally. The treatment tank 2 is equipped with a turbulence mechanism. The connecting frame 11 can be guided by four guide rods 10. The support rod 12 makes the mounting frame 13, the screen plate 14 and the raw materials on the screen plate 14 move up and down reciprocally with the connecting frame 11. This allows the raw materials to come into contact with water of different depths and temperatures inside the treatment tank 2, and also has a certain turbulence effect on the water, which is conducive to the rapid thawing of the raw materials.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the turbulence mechanism includes a second drive motor 16 fixedly installed on one side surface of the treatment tank 2. The output end of the second drive motor 16 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 17 located inside the treatment tank 2. Multiple turbulence vanes 18 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 17. The end of the rotating shaft 17 away from the second drive motor 16 is rotatably connected to the inner surface of the treatment tank 2. When the second drive motor 16 is started, the rotating shaft 17 and the multiple turbulence vanes 18 are driven to rotate. Through the multiple rotating turbulence vanes 18, the water inside the treatment tank 2 can be agitated, thereby forming a certain turbulence rinsing effect on the surface of the raw materials and further improving the thawing rate of the raw materials.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, two symmetrically distributed baffles 19 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the screen plate 14. The two baffles 19 prevent the raw materials from falling off the screen plate 14 when the screen plate 14 moves up and down.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the connecting shaft 7 is rotatably connected to the support frame 1 through bearings at both ends. The two bearings ensure the stability of the connecting shaft 7 during rotation.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, a drain pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the treatment tank 2, and a valve is installed on the drain pipe. When the water inside the treatment tank 2 has been used for a long time, the valve can be opened and the water inside the treatment tank 2 can be drained through the drain pipe, which is convenient for subsequent water replacement.
[0033] Specifically, when using this rapid thawing device for pet food production: the first drive motor 4, the heating element 15, and the second drive motor 16 are all electrically connected to an external control power supply. First, the two heating elements 15 are energized to heat the water inside the processing tank 2, increasing the water temperature. The meat raw material to be thawed is placed on top of the mesh plate 14. Then, the first drive motor 4 and the second drive motor 16 are started. When the first drive motor 4 is running, it drives the drive shaft 5 and the first connecting gear 6 to rotate. Through meshing transmission, it drives the second connecting gear 8 and the connecting shaft 7 to rotate in the opposite direction. The two bearings ensure the stability of the connecting shaft 7 during rotation. The two adjusting plates 9 rotate synchronously with the connecting shaft 7. During the rotation of the two adjusting plates 9, four tension springs 20 are engaged. The connecting frame 11 can be driven to move up and down reciprocally. Four guide rods 10 can guide the connecting frame 11. The support rods 12 can make the mounting frame 13, the mesh plate 14 and the raw materials on the mesh plate 14 move up and down reciprocally with the connecting frame 11. This allows the raw materials to come into contact with water of different depths and temperatures inside the treatment tank 2, and can also have a certain turbulence effect on the water, which is conducive to the rapid thawing of the raw materials. When the second drive motor 16 runs, it drives the rotating shaft 17 and multiple turbulence blades 18 to rotate. Through the multiple rotating turbulence blades 18, the water inside the treatment tank 2 can be stirred, which can form a certain turbulence rinsing effect on the surface of the raw materials, which can further improve the thawing rate of the raw materials. The time is short, and the raw materials are thawed quickly and evenly, which is beneficial to practical use.
[0034] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Therefore, any modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present utility model, and all technical solutions and improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the utility model, are covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
