[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food production and processing technology, and in particular to a heating tank for food production and processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of mass food growth, it is necessary to heat and cook the food in a concentrated manner. This is done by adding prepared seasoning sauce into the heating tank and then heating it continuously for a certain period of time to cook the food and allow the flavor to penetrate into the food.

[0003] The existing equipment makes it inconvenient for staff to remove the food after it has been cooked. They need to use clamps to remove the food, which can easily damage the integrity of the food. At the same time, when removing the food, a lot of soup will stick to the surface of the food, which can easily cause the soup to drip onto other places. In addition to making it inconvenient to remove the food, the soup will also affect the surrounding hygiene environment, so the effect of use is not ideal. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model discloses a heating tank for food production and processing, aiming to solve the technical problems of existing technology that uses clamps to remove food, which easily damages the integrity of the food. At the same time, when removing the food, a large amount of soup will stick to the surface of the food, which will easily cause the soup to drip to other places after removal, making it inconvenient to remove the food and affecting the surrounding hygiene environment.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A heating tank for food production and processing includes a heating tank body. A support plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the heating tank body. A motor is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support plate. A threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A movable rod is threadedly connected to the wall of the threaded rod. A spring is fixedly connected to the lower end of the movable rod. A support block is slidably connected to the outer side of the movable rod. A perforated plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support block. The upper end of the perforated plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the spring. Crossbars are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end of the movable rod. A rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the crossbars. A circular block is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod. A first protrusion is fixedly connected to the lower end of the circular block. A second protrusion is fixedly connected to the upper end of the perforated plate. A rectangular rod is slidably connected to the upper end of the rotating rod.

[0007] Preferably, the upper end of the rectangular rod is rotatably connected to the lower end of the support plate, and the upper end of the rod wall of the rectangular rod is connected to the upper end of the rod wall of the threaded rod by a belt drive.

[0008] Preferably, both sides of the upper end of the perforated plate are fixedly connected with stop bars, and the stop bars are slidably connected to the inside of the circular block;

[0019] Reference Figure 1-3 A heating tank for food production and processing includes a heating tank body 1. A support plate 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the heating tank body 1 for support. A motor 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support plate 2, serving as a driving device. In the prior art, a threaded rod 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3, driving the threaded rod 4 to rotate. A movable rod 8 is threadedly connected to the wall of the threaded rod 4, causing the movable rod 8 to move as the threaded rod 4 rotates. A spring 17 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the movable rod 8, driving a perforated plate 9 to move together via the spring 17. A support block 12 is slidably connected to the outer side of the movable rod 8. The lower end of the moving rod 8 is fixedly connected to a perforated plate 9, and the upper end of the perforated plate 9 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the spring 17. Both sides of the upper end of the moving rod 8 are fixedly connected to a crossbar 7. The moving rod 8 moves and drives the crossbar 7 to move synchronously. The crossbar 7 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 6. The crossbar 7 drives the rotating rod 6 to move up and down. The lower end of the rotating rod 6 is fixedly connected to a round block 13. The rotating rod 6 drives the round block 13 to move. The lower end of the round block 13 is fixedly connected to a first protrusion 15. The rotation of the round block 13 drives the first protrusion 15 to rotate. The upper end of the perforated plate 9 is fixedly connected to a second protrusion 14. The upper end of the rotating rod 6 is slidably connected to a rectangular rod 5. The rectangular rod 5 can move up and down relative to the rotating rod 6.

[0020] During operation, the food to be heated is placed on the upper end of the perforated plate 9, and heated by the heating tank body 1. When heating is finished, the motor 3 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 4 causes the moving rod 8 to move upward. The moving rod 8, through the spring 17, drives the perforated plate 9 to move upward. The upward movement of the perforated plate 9 causes the food to move upward. At the same time, the movement of the moving rod 8 causes the horizontal bars 7 on both sides to move upward. The horizontal bars 7 drive the rotating rod 6 to move. When the rectangular rod 5 rotates, it drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 6 drives the circular block 13 to rotate. The rotation of the circular block 13 drives the first protrusion 15 to rotate. The moving part contacts the second protrusion 14, causing the second protrusion 14 to move the perforated plate 9 downward, thus stretching the spring 17. When the first protrusion 15 and the second protrusion 14 are misaligned, the perforated plate 9 moves upward under the action of the spring 17. Thus, when the food heating ends, the perforated plate 9 moves upward, moving the food upward, making it easier for staff to retrieve the food. At the same time, the upward movement causes the perforated plate 9 to vibrate up and down, shaking off the soup adhering to the surface of the food. This reduces the possibility of soup dripping onto other places when retrieving the food, improving the convenience and hygiene of retrieving the food.

[0021] Reference Figure 2 The upper end of the rectangular rod 5 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the support plate 2. The upper end of the rod wall of the rectangular rod 5 is connected to the upper end of the rod wall of the threaded rod 4 via a belt 10. The rotation of the threaded rod 4 drives the rectangular rod 5 to rotate via the belt 10.

[0022] Reference Figure 3 Both sides of the upper end of the perforated plate 9 are fixedly connected with baffles 16. The baffles 16 are slidably connected to the inside of the round block 13. By setting the baffles 16, food can be prevented from entering the lower end of the round block 13 and affecting the shaking effect of the perforated plate 9.

[0023] Reference Figure 2 A drain pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the heating pool body 1 to drain the soup inside the heating pool body 1.

[0024] Reference Figure 2 The upper end of the rectangular rod 5 is connected by two rods, which are connected by a one-way bearing 18. The one-way bearing 18 is existing technology and can rotate and lock in one direction. When the threaded rod 4 reverses, the moving rod 8 moves downward. At this time, the one-way bearing 18 is in a movable rotation, and the lower end of the rectangular rod 5 will not rotate, thus preventing vibration. When the moving rod 8 moves upward, the one-way bearing 18 is locked, which allows the rectangular rod 5 to rotate. This reduces unnecessary wear.

[0025] Working principle: During operation, the food to be heated is placed on the upper end of the perforated plate 9, and heated by the heating tank body 1. When heating is finished, the motor 3 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 4 causes the moving rod 8 to move upward. The moving rod 8, through the spring 17, drives the perforated plate 9 to move upward. The upward movement of the perforated plate 9 causes the food to move upward. At the same time, the movement of the moving rod 8 causes the horizontal bars 7 on both sides to move upward. The horizontal bars 7 drive the rotating rod 6 to move. When the rectangular rod 5 rotates, it drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 6 drives the circular block 13 to rotate. The rotation of the circular block 13 drives the first protrusion 15 to rotate. The first protrusion 15 moves to contact the second protrusion 14, causing the second protrusion 14 to drive the perforated plate 9 downward, thus stretching the spring 17. When the first protrusion 15 and the second protrusion 14 are misaligned, the perforated plate 9 moves upward under the action of the spring 17. In this way, when the heating of the food is finished, the perforated plate 9 moves upward, which moves the food upward, making it easier for staff to pick up the food. At the same time, when moving upward, the perforated plate 9 can shake up and down, which can shake off the soup adhering to the surface of the food. This reduces the possibility of soup dripping onto other places when picking up the food, improving the convenience and hygiene of picking up the food.
