Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of brine preparation technology, and in particular to a brine preparation apparatus. Background Technology
[0002] Braising liquid is a common seasoning in Cantonese (Chaozhou) and Fujian cuisines of China. It is a type of soy sauce made by simmering various spices. It is also a common seasoning in Cantonese, Sichuan, and many snack dishes. The ingredients include Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, dried tangerine peel, cinnamon, licorice root, cardamom, galangal, ginger, scallions, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and rock sugar, among others. It is prepared by simmering for several hours. Many restaurants reuse braising liquid because they believe that the longer it is simmered, the more delicious it becomes.
[0003] When preparing large quantities of brine, a stirring device is usually required to ensure thorough mixing of the ingredients. Currently used mixing machines primarily use a motor to drive a stirring rod to mix the ingredients within the tank. However, in most existing such devices, the stirring rod is fixed inside the tank, making it easy to create blind spots when cleaning the tank and stirring components. This results in inconvenience for cleaning staff and overall poor cleaning effectiveness.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a brine preparation apparatus to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this application provides a brine preparation device.
[0006] The brine preparation device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A brine preparation device includes a support plate and a mixing tank. The mixing tank has four L-shaped protrusions installed at equal angles on its inner wall. A tank lid is snapped into a slot on the upper part of the mixing tank. Four insert rods are distributed at equal angles on the lower surface of the tank lid, and the four insert rods are sequentially inserted into the corresponding L-shaped protrusions. The support plate has several fastening nuts threaded at equal angles on its outer ring, and the four fastening nuts sequentially pass through the corresponding L-shaped protrusions and insert rods. A cross is installed on the upper surface of the tank lid, and a stirring motor is installed on the top of the cross. A stirring assembly is detachably installed at the output end of the stirring motor.
[0008] Preferably, the stirring assembly includes a rotating shaft and a plurality of stirring rods evenly distributed outside the rotating shaft. A horizontal plate is provided at the bottom of the stirring tank. Both ends of the rotating shaft pass through the tank cover and the interior of the horizontal plate. A rectangular sleeve is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft. A rectangular locking block is installed at the output end of the stirring motor, and the rectangular locking block is inserted into the interior of the rectangular sleeve below. A limiting pad is fixedly fitted at the bottom of the rotating shaft, and the limiting pad overlaps the top of the horizontal plate.
[0009] Preferably, a viewing window is vertically installed on one side of the outside of the mixing tank.
[0010] Preferably, a feeding port is installed on the eccentric side above the can lid.
[0011] Preferably, multiple support legs are installed at each of the four corners of the lower surface of the support plate.
[0012] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:
[0013] By loosening the four fastening nuts, the limiting position on the insert rod is removed, allowing the insert rod to detach from the L-shaped protrusion. This allows the tank cover to separate from the groove on the top of the mixing tank under external force. Then, the tank cover, rotating shaft, and mixing rod are separated from the mixing tank, facilitating thorough cleaning of the device components. This effectively avoids cleaning dead corners, improves the cleaning effect of the device, and allows for phased disassembly and assembly of components, reducing the weight of each component and reducing the labor intensity of the user during disassembly and assembly.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this application discloses a brine preparation device. Four L-shaped protrusions 18 are installed at equal angles on the upper inner wall of a mixing tank 6. A tank cover 8 is snapped into the groove at the top of the mixing tank 6, and a feeding port is provided on one side of the tank cover 8. A discharge port is provided at the bottom of the mixing tank 6 to facilitate the entry and exit of materials inside the mixing tank 6. Simultaneously, four insert rods 16 are distributed at equal angles on the lower surface of the tank cover 8, and the four insert rods 16 are sequentially inserted into the corresponding L-shaped protrusions 18. A plurality of fastening nuts 7 are threaded at equal angles on the outer ring of the handrail frame 1, and the four fastening nuts 7 sequentially penetrate the corresponding L-shaped protrusions 18. The interior of the protrusion 18 and the insert rod 16 ensures the stability of the can lid 8 when it is engaged with the slot above the handrail 1, facilitating the normal operation of the machine. At the same time, it allows the four fastening nuts 7 to rotate and move out of the interior of the insert rod 16 and the L-shaped protrusion 18, thus removing the restriction on the insert rod 16. This allows the insert rod 16 to move out of the interior of the L-shaped protrusion 18, thereby separating the can lid 8 from the slot above the mixing tank 6. This, in turn, causes the mixing component to separate from the mixing tank 6, facilitating thorough cleaning of the mixing component and the mixing tank 6, effectively avoiding the occurrence of cleaning dead corners, and improving the cleaning effect of the device.
[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the stirring assembly includes a rotating shaft 13 and several stirring rods 11 evenly distributed outside the rotating shaft 13. A horizontal plate 12 is provided at the bottom of the stirring tank 6. The two ends of the rotating shaft 13 pass through the tank cover 8 and the interior of the horizontal plate 12. A rectangular sleeve 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft 13. A rectangular locking block 4 is installed at the output end of the stirring motor 9, and the rectangular locking block 4 is inserted into the interior of the rectangular sleeve 3. A limiting pad 14 is fixedly fitted at the bottom of the rotating shaft 13, and the limiting pad 14 overlaps the horizontal plate 12 to provide support for the bottom of the rotating shaft 13, while not affecting the separation of the rotating shaft 13 from the stirring tank 6.
[0022] By starting the stirring motor 9, the output of the stirring motor 9 can drive the rotating shaft 13 to rotate. Then, when the rotating shaft 13 rotates, it can drive several stirring rods 11 to rotate, so as to achieve thorough mixing of the materials. At the same time, when the limiting of the can lid 8 is lost, the cross 10, the stirring motor 9, and the rectangular locking block 4 can be separated from the can lid 8. Then, the can lid 8, the rotating shaft 13, and the stirring rods 11 can be separated from the mixing tank 6, which facilitates thorough cleaning of the device components. This allows for the disassembly and assembly of components in stages, reducing the weight of each component and reducing the labor intensity of the user during disassembly and assembly.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a viewing window 2 is vertically installed on one side of the outside of the mixing tank 6. The viewing window allows the staff to easily observe the amount of brine inside the mixing tank 6 and facilitate the addition of water.
[0024] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0025] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
[0026] The implementation principle of the brine preparation device in this application embodiment is as follows: When in use, the stirring motor 9 is started, and then the output end of the stirring motor 9 can drive the rotating shaft 13 to rotate. Then, when the rotating shaft 13 rotates, it can drive several stirring rods 11 to rotate, so as to achieve full mixing and stirring of the brine.
[0027] When cleaning the mixing tank 6 and the mixing components is required, four insert rods 16 are evenly distributed on the lower surface of the tank cover 8, and the four insert rods 16 are sequentially inserted into the corresponding L-shaped protrusions 18. Several fastening nuts 7 are threaded at equal angles on the outer ring of the handrail frame 1, and the four fastening nuts 7 sequentially pass through the corresponding L-shaped protrusions 18 and insert rods 16. This ensures that the tank cover 8 is stable when it is engaged with the upper slot of the handrail frame 1, facilitating the normal operation of the machine. At the same time, the four fastening nuts 7 can be rotated to move out of the insert rods 16 and L-shaped protrusions 18, removing the restriction on the insert rods 16. This allows the insert rods 16 to be moved out of the L-shaped protrusions 18, thereby separating the tank cover 8 from the upper slot of the mixing tank 6. Then, the tank cover 8, the rotating shaft 13, and the mixing rod 11 are separated from the mixing tank 6, facilitating thorough cleaning of the device components. At the same time, it enables the components to be disassembled and assembled in stages, reducing the weight of each component and reducing the labor intensity of the user during disassembly and assembly.
