Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of crayfish processing equipment, and in particular to a water-cooling device for crayfish processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the crayfish processing, water cooling is a key step in ensuring its quality, directly affecting the freshness, taste, and subsequent processing efficiency of the crayfish.

[0003] However, existing water-cooling devices for crayfish processing still have many shortcomings in practical applications: traditional devices mostly use fixed spraying or static immersion for cooling. The fixed spray angle makes it easy for crayfish to have cooling dead spots, especially for those stacked at the bottom or edge, which are difficult to cool all-round. The cooling uniformity is poor, and the quality is easily affected by localized untimely cooling. The water recycling efficiency is low. Shrimp shell fragments and impurities generated during the cooling process are easily mixed into the water. If they are not filtered in time, they will adhere to the surface of the crayfish or block the spray structure, which not only reduces the cooling effect but also requires frequent replacement of cooling water, resulting in water waste. Water temperature control mostly relies on manual monitoring and adjustment, making it difficult to maintain the optimal cooling temperature in real time. If the water temperature is too high, the cooling speed is slow and the effect is poor. If it is too low, it may damage the crayfish meat. At the same time, the discharge end lacks flexibility and cannot adapt to the docking requirements of different production scenarios, which limits the versatility of the equipment.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a water-cooling device for crayfish processing to solve the above problems.

[0005] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0040] The conveyor belt 11 is installed inside the housing 1, and multiple parallel strip plates 111 are fixedly installed on the conveyor belt 11.

The four toothed plates 23 mesh with the corresponding multiple gears 22 respectively, so that when any one spray pipe 21 deflects, the other multiple spray pipes 21 can be controlled to achieve the effect of synchronous deflection.

It can control the reciprocating movement of the toothed plates 23 as needed, thereby achieving the effect of controlling the reciprocating deflection of multiple spray pipes 21.

[0043] In order to provide stable support for the motor 25, a mounting bracket 28 is fixedly installed on the top of the housing 1, and the motor 25 is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 28.

[0044] Specifically, in order to monitor the water temperature inside the housing 1 in real time and to feed the monitored water temperature back to the controller, and to adjust the cooling rate of the cooler 4 by the controller, multiple temperature sensors 41 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the housing 1, and the temperature sensors 41 are electrically connected to the cooler 4 through the controller.

[0045] Specifically, in order to filter and remove impurities from the water returning to the filter box 3, and to prevent smaller lobsters from being sucked into the return pipe 31 and causing blockage, a filter plate 301 is fixedly installed in the filter box 3 in an inclined manner.

The end of the return pipe 31 away from the filter box 3 extends into the housing 1, and a mesh plate 311 is provided at the end of the return pipe 31 away from the filter box 3.

[0047] The circuits, electronic components, and module mechanisms involved all employ existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need no further explanation. The content protected by this application does not involve any improvement to the software, circuits, or methods.

[0048] Working principle:

[0049] First, turn on the power and inject an appropriate amount of cooling water into the housing 1. The water level should submerge the horizontal section of the conveyor belt 11 but not exceed the lowest point of the feed trough 12. Then, introduce the crayfish that need to be water-cooled into the housing 1 from the feed trough 12. The crayfish are then conveyed from below the conveyor belt 11 to the left by the conveyor belt 11 and the strip plates 111 on the conveyor belt 11. In this state, the crayfish are completely submerged in water. As the conveying continues, the crayfish are transferred from the left side of the conveyor belt 11 to the right side of the conveyor belt 11. During this process, the conveying pump 201 passes through the filter box 3 and the return flow... Pipe 31 draws water from the shell 1 and transports it to the conveyor pipe 2. Then, multiple spray pipes 21 spray and cool the crayfish conveyed above the conveyor belt 11. At the same time, the motor 25 is started. The motor 25, through the cooperation of turntable 26, guide pin 27, guide groove and strip plate 111, can control the reciprocating movement of the two toothed plates 23 below, and at the same time keep the two toothed plates 23 on the right side reciprocating. This allows the spray angle of the multiple spray pipes 21 to be adjusted back and forth, so that the cooling water can cover all parts of the crayfish, thereby achieving a rapid cooling effect.

[0050] During this process, the temperature sensor 41 monitors the water temperature inside the shell 1 in real time and transmits the data to the controller. The controller then adjusts the working state of the cooler 4 according to the preset temperature range to ensure that the water temperature is always kept in the optimal range for cooling crayfish. This design not only improves the cooling efficiency but also avoids the situation where the quality of crayfish is affected by water temperature that is too high or too low.

[0051] After the crayfish have cooled, they will be conveyed to the discharge cylinder 13 for discharge. During the discharge process, the angle of the discharge cylinder 13 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs through the cooperation of the electric cylinder 132 and the rotating seat 131, so as to adapt to different production scenarios. For example, when the crayfish need to be directly packed into boxes, the discharge cylinder 13 can be adjusted to a lower angle; while when further processing or sorting is required, the discharge cylinder 13 can be adjusted to a higher angle for subsequent operations.

[0052] In addition, the design of the return pipe 31, the filter box 3, and the filter plate 301 ensures the recycling performance of the water cooling device and achieves the interception and filtration of impurities. This process not only reduces the waste of water resources but also avoids the impact of impurities on the cooling effect. At the same time, the mesh plate 311 at the end of the return pipe 31 effectively prevents smaller crayfish from being sucked into the pipe, ensuring the stable operation of the equipment.

[0053] The above provides a detailed description of a water-cooling device for crayfish processing provided by this utility model. Specific embodiments have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The descriptions of these embodiments are merely for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications to this utility model without departing from its principles, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
