Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of tumbling machines, specifically relating to a vacuum tumbling machine. Background Technology
[0002] Vacuum tumblers are key processing equipment used by food manufacturers to produce meat products and low-temperature ham. Their purpose is to mix tenderized raw meat with auxiliary materials and additives under vacuum conditions through tumbling, pressing, and marinating (note: meat expands under vacuum). This allows the proteins in the tenderized raw meat to fully contact with the brine, accelerating protein dissolution and interaction, increasing the adhesion between meat pieces, and also improving the color, tenderness, and water retention of the meat, thus enhancing its overall quality.
[0003] Traditional vacuum tumblers have a simple structure, typically placed directly on a fixed mechanism, making it impossible to adjust their angle and position, resulting in poor flexibility and requiring a longer mixing time for food. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a vacuum tumbling machine to solve the problems existing in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A vacuum tumbler includes a vacuum tumbler and a control box. A rotary motor is installed inside the control box. A support frame is fixedly installed on the side of the control box. The output end of the rotary motor is driven by a mounting ring. An L-shaped fixing plate, which is fixedly installed with the mounting ring, is rotatably mounted on the support frame. A drive motor is fixedly installed at the lower end of the L-shaped fixing plate. The output end of the drive motor passes through the vacuum tumbler and is equipped with a tumbling assembly.
[0007] The upper end of the L-shaped fixing plate is slidably connected to a sliding rod, the sliding rod is fixedly connected to a horizontal plate, and a sealing cover is fixedly installed on the horizontal plate. The sealing cover and the vacuum tumbler are detachably and sealably connected.
[0008] The tumbling assembly includes several spiral plates, which abut against the inner wall of the vacuum tumbling machine. Each spiral plate has a connecting rod fixedly connected to its bottom, and the connecting rod is connected to the output end of the drive motor.
[0009] The output end of the drive motor extends into the vacuum tumbler and is fixedly installed with a rectangular block. Several connecting rods are fixedly connected to a mounting column that matches the rectangular block. The mounting column and the rectangular block are detachably connected.
[0010] The mounting column and the rectangular block can be connected together by bolts.
[0011] The mounting column has an internal mounting groove, and T-shaped blocks are symmetrically slidably connected to the mounting groove. Elastic elements are installed on the two T-shaped blocks on opposite sides. Pull ropes are installed on the opposite sides of the two T-shaped blocks. The pull ropes pass through the connecting rod and the spiral plate and are fixedly connected to the abutment block. The rectangular block has a locking groove on its side that matches the T-shaped block.
[0012] This invention enables the vacuum tumbler to rotate using a rotating motor and a drive motor, while the spiral plate of the tumbling assembly physically impacts the beef and mutton. This not only improves the tumbling efficiency but also the discharge efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The symbols for the main components are explained below:
[0021] Vacuum tumbler 1, control box 11, rotating motor 12, support frame 13, mounting ring 14, L-shaped fixing plate 15, drive motor 16, sliding rod 20, horizontal plate 21, sealing cover 22, spiral plate 23, connecting rod 24, rectangular block 25, bolt 17, mounting column 26, T-shaped block 27, elastic element 28, pull rope 29, abutment block 30. Detailed Implementation
[0022] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] Example 1: As Figure 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides a vacuum tumbling machine, comprising a vacuum tumbling machine 1 and a control box 11. A rotary motor 12 is installed inside the control box 11, and a support frame 13 is fixedly installed on the side of the control box 11. The output end of the rotary motor 12 is connected to a mounting ring 14. An L-shaped fixing plate 15, which is fixedly installed to the mounting ring 14, is rotatably mounted on the support frame 13. A drive motor 16 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the L-shaped fixing plate 15, and the output end of the drive motor 16 passes through the vacuum tumbling machine 1 and is equipped with a tumbling assembly.
[0024] The upper end of the L-shaped fixed plate 15 is slidably connected to a sliding rod 20, and the sliding rod 20 is fixedly connected to a horizontal plate 21. A sealing cover 22 is fixedly installed on the horizontal plate 21, and the sealing cover 22 is detachably and sealed to the vacuum tumbler 1.
[0025] The tumbling assembly includes several spiral plates 23, which abut against the inner wall of the vacuum tumbling machine 1. Each spiral plate 23 has a connecting rod 24 fixedly connected to its bottom, and the connecting rod 24 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 16.
[0026] A vacuum connection hose is fixedly installed on the upper end of the sealing cover 22. The connection hose is connected to the vacuum pump in the conventional technical field inside the control box 11, so that the internal vacuum can be performed after the sealing cover 22 is sealed and connected to the vacuum tumbler.
[0027] When in use, with the sealing cover 22 facing upwards, the output shaft of the rotating motor 12 is locked, preventing the mounting ring 14 from rotating. This releases the sealing connection between the sealing cover 22 and the vacuum tumbler 1, allowing the sealing cover 22 to move upwards. This, in turn, moves the horizontal plate 21 and the sliding rod 20 upwards, exposing them inside the vacuum tumbler 1. The rotation of the sealing cover 22 then causes the sliding rod 20 to rotate inside the L-shaped fixing plate 15. This releases the grip on the sealing cover 22, allowing it to be stably placed in the vacuum tumbler under the action of the sliding rod 20 and the horizontal plate 21. 1. On the side, the beef and mutton to be processed are put into the vacuum tumbler 1. While closing the sealing cover 22, the inside is evacuated through the control box 11. Then, the rotating motor 12 and the drive motor 16 are started. When the rotating motor 12 is working, it will drive the mounting ring 14 and the L-shaped fixing plate 15 to rotate, thereby changing the center of gravity of the vacuum tumbler 1. This will increase the rolling efficiency of the beef and mutton inside. When the drive motor 16 is working, it will drive the tumbling components to make the meat tumble, collide and pound against each other under physical impact inside the vacuum tumbler 1.
[0028] When the tumbling assembly rotates, the connecting rod 24 and the spiral plate 23 scrape the bottom and sides of the vacuum tumbling machine 1, thereby lifting the meat and then letting it fall down by gravity.
[0029] When discharging, the opening of the vacuum tumbler 1 should face downwards. Then, open the sealing cover 22 and start the drive motor 16 to drive the spiral plate 23 to rotate. At this time, the rotation direction of the spiral plate 23 should be the spiral direction of the spiral plate 23. This will push the tumbled meat paste out when the spiral plate 23 rotates, thus speeding up the discharge efficiency. At the same time, the connecting rod 24 and the spiral plate 23 abut against the bottom and inner wall to prevent the meat paste from adhering to the inner wall.
[0030] This invention enables the vacuum tumbler to rotate using a rotating motor and a drive motor, while the spiral plate of the tumbling assembly physically impacts the beef and mutton. This not only improves the tumbling efficiency but also the discharge efficiency.
[0031] Example 2: Based on Example 1, a further improvement is made. The output end of the drive motor 16 extends into the vacuum tumbler 1 and is fixedly installed with a rectangular block 25. Several connecting rods 24 are fixedly connected to a mounting post 26 that matches the rectangular block 25. The mounting post 26 and the rectangular block 25 are detachably connected.
[0032] The mounting post 26 and the rectangular block 25 can be connected together by bolts 17.
[0033] The tumbling assembly is detachably connected to the drive motor 16, which facilitates cleaning and maintenance of the tumbling assembly. During disassembly, the bolt 17 can be rotated using a screwdriver or other tool that matches the bolt 17 to release the threaded connection between the bolt 17 and the mounting post 26 and the rectangular block 25.
[0034] The mounting post 26 has an internal mounting groove, and T-shaped blocks 27 are symmetrically slidably connected to the mounting groove. Elastic elements 28 are installed on the opposite sides of the two T-shaped blocks 27. Pull ropes 29 are installed on the opposite sides of both T-shaped blocks 27. The pull ropes 29 pass through the connecting rod 24 and the spiral plate 23 and are fixedly connected to the abutment block 30. A locking groove matching the T-shaped blocks 27 is opened on the side of the rectangular block 25. During installation, simply drive the pull ropes 29 to move the T-shaped blocks 27 away from the elastic elements 28, then insert the mounting post 26 into the periphery of the rectangular block 25, aligning the T-shaped blocks 27 with the locking grooves. Once the T-shaped blocks 27 are aligned with the locking grooves, release the force on the pull ropes 29, allowing the T-shaped blocks 27 to insert into the locking grooves under the action of the elastic elements 28. Unlocking is done in the same way.

Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
