Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a meat tumbling and marinating reactor. Background Technology
[0002] A meat curing reactor is a specialized piece of equipment used in meat processing. Typically made of food-grade stainless steel, it features a stirring system, vacuum function, temperature control system, and automated control system. It uses stirring to evenly mix the marinade with the meat, utilizes a vacuum environment to accelerate marinade penetration, and precisely controls the temperature. This allows for a rapid and uniform curing process while ensuring hygiene and safety, effectively shortening curing time and improving the taste, flavor, and quality of meat products. Widely used in various meat processing enterprises, it is a crucial piece of equipment for large-scale industrial meat curing production.
[0003] In existing technologies, meat marinating reactors can process large quantities of meat at a time. However, simple stirring alone cannot match the combined effect of tumbling and kneading. Simple stirring only passively mixes the meat in the marinade, failing to penetrate the deep texture of the meat. This results in uneven marinating throughout the meat, especially in the central area, which often suffers from insufficient marinating and a bland taste, severely impacting the marinating effect. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing a meat tumbling and marinating reactor.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a meat tumbling and marinating reactor, comprising a reactor shell, an inner jacket plate installed inside the reactor shell, a large gear arranged below the jacket plate, a small gear meshing with the outer side wall of the large gear, a rotating shaft fixedly connected to the top surface of the small gear, the top end of the rotating shaft penetrating the jacket plate and fixedly connected to a meat rolling roller, a top roller fixedly connected to the top end of the large gear, a reciprocating groove formed on the outer side wall of the top roller, a slider slidably connected to the inner side wall of the reciprocating groove, a sliding seat slidably connected to the outer side wall of the top roller, the slider embedded inside the sliding seat, a top column fixedly connected to the top end of the sliding seat, the top end of the top column penetrating the jacket plate and fixedly connected to a meat kneading roller, conical grooves evenly spaced on the outer side wall of the meat kneading roller, and stripes evenly arranged on the outer side wall of the meat rolling roller.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0022] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0023] Example 1: As Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a meat tumbling and marinating reactor, including a reactor shell 1. A sandwich plate 3 is installed inside the reactor shell 1. A large gear 7 is arranged below the sandwich plate 3. A small gear 8 meshes with the outer side wall of the large gear 7. A rotating shaft 9 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the small gear 8. The top end of the rotating shaft 9 passes through the sandwich plate 3 and is fixedly connected to a meat rolling roller 4. A top roller 12 is fixedly connected to the top end of the large gear 7. A reciprocating groove 16 is opened on the outer side wall of the top roller 12. A slider 17 is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the reciprocating groove 16. A sliding seat 13 is slidably connected to the outer side wall of the top roller 12. The slider 17 is embedded in the interior of the sliding seat 13. A top column 18 is fixedly connected to the top end of the sliding seat 13. The top end of the top column 18 passes through the sandwich plate 3 and is fixedly connected to a meat kneading roller 5. Conical grooves are opened at equal intervals on the outer side wall of the meat kneading roller 5. Stripes are evenly arranged on the outer side wall of the meat rolling roller 4.
[0024] The specific setup and function of this embodiment are described below. The meat to be marinated is placed inside the outer shell 1 of the reactor. The jacketed plate 3 divides the outer shell 1 of the reactor into upper and lower parts. The upper part is used to store the meat, and the lower part is used to control the movement of the rolling rollers 4 and the kneading rollers 5. The rolling rollers 4 are evenly arranged inside the outer shell 1 of the reactor and their rotation is controlled by the corresponding pinions 8. The kneading rollers 5 are located in the center of the outer shell 1 of the reactor and their up-and-down swing is controlled by the large gear 7 below. The rotation of the pinions 8 applies a rolling action to the meat located in the center, and the upper part of the large gear 7 applies a rolling action to the meat located in the center. The downward movement applies a kneading action to the meat. The large gear 7 rotates, driving the top roller 12 to rotate. Since the reciprocating groove 16 is located on the outer wall of the slider 17, the two ends of the reciprocating groove 16 are closed to each other. The trajectory of the reciprocating groove 16 folds back and forth at both ends of the top roller 12. Therefore, each rotation of the top roller 12 allows the slider 17 to move back and forth in the up and down direction. The slider 17 drives the sliding seat 13 to move vertically up and down. The sliding seat 13 drives the top column 18 to move up and down. By controlling the up and down movement of the kneading roller 5 at the top, and using the conical groove to knead the meat, the marinating action of kneading the meat is completed.
[0025] Example 2: Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a reactor cover 2 is installed on the top of the reactor shell 1. A sealing rubber ring is provided at the connection between the reactor cover 2 and the reactor shell 1. A positioning frame 11 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the reactor shell 1. The large gear 7 and the small gear 8 are rotatably connected to the positioning frame 11. A servo motor 10 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the reactor shell 1. The output end of the servo motor 10 passes through the positioning frame 11 and is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the large gear 7.
[0026] A gantry seat 19 is provided on the upper surface of the large gear 7. Guide columns 14 are fixedly connected to both ends of the gantry seat 19. The sliding seat 13 is slidably connected to the guide columns 14. A spring 15 is fixedly connected between the sliding seat 13 and the gantry seat 19. The spring 15 is provided on the outer side wall of the guide column 14. A retaining ring 6 is rotatably connected to the top of the meat roller 4. The gantry seat 19 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the reactor shell 1.
[0027] The overall effect of this embodiment is that, in order to linearly guide the reciprocating lifting of the sliding seat 13, guide posts 14 are installed on both sides of the gantry seat 19. Since the sliding seat 13 slides under the guidance of the two guide posts 14, the sliding seat 13 only moves in the vertical direction. By installing a spring 15 between the sliding seat 13 and the gantry seat 19, the elastic force of the spring 15 is used to reset the slider 17, so as to quickly reset the reciprocating groove 16 when the bending angle is large. At the same time, a reactor cover 2 is installed on the top of the reactor shell 1. The reactor cover 2 is connected to the reactor shell 1 by a hinge, and the sealing rubber ring is used to ensure the internal sealing, thereby improving the quality of the marinated meat.
[0028] The operating method and working principle of this device are as follows: After the servo motor 10 starts, it drives the large gear 7 to rotate. The small gear 8 meshing with the outer wall of the large gear 7 rotates accordingly, thereby driving the rotating shaft 9 fixedly connected to the top surface of the small gear 8 and the meat rolling roller 4 at the top to rotate. The stripes on the outer wall of the meat rolling roller 4 apply a "rolling" processing action to the meat inside the outer shell 1 of the reaction vessel. At the same time, the top roller 12 fixed at the top of the large gear 7 rotates together with the large gear 7. The slider 17 in the reciprocating groove 16 on its outer wall, under the action of the groove trajectory, drives the sliding seat 13 along the guide post 1. 4. Vertical lifting and lowering, and using the spring 15 between the sliding seat 13 and the gantry seat 19 to assist in resetting. The sliding seat 13 moves the meat kneading roller 5 up and down through the top column 18. The conical groove on the outer wall of the meat kneading roller 5 applies a "kneading" processing action to the meat. The sandwich plate 3 divides the outer shell 1 of the reactor into upper and lower parts. The upper part stores the meat, and the lower part controls the movement of the rolling roller 4 and the kneading roller 5 through gear transmission and other structures, ultimately realizing the tumbling and marinating processing of the meat. The reactor lid 2 ensures internal sealing through a sealing rubber ring, improving the marinating quality.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
