Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of steaming machines, specifically a shrimp tail steaming machine with a quickly detachable steaming tray. Background Technology

[0002] The shrimp tail steaming machine is a professional automated equipment used for aquatic product processing. It is primarily used for the targeted steaming of the tails of shrimp (such as whiteleg shrimp and tiger prawns) to achieve efficient and hygienic pre-processing. Its core function is to quickly shape and cook the shrimp tails through precise temperature control and timed steaming, facilitating subsequent peeling or further processing while preserving the tender texture and nutritional value of the shrimp meat. This equipment is widely used in aquatic product processing plants, pre-prepared food production lines, and central kitchens for restaurants.

[0003] Existing technologies still have the following shortcomings: Traditional equipment generally uses mechanical fixing methods such as bolts or manual clips, which are not only cumbersome and time-consuming to install and disassemble, severely impacting production efficiency, but also lack self-locking functionality, making them prone to loosening under equipment vibration or steam impact, posing safety hazards. Furthermore, manual operation makes it difficult to achieve simultaneous locking at multiple points, easily leading to uneven stress on the steaming trays, causing deformation or poor sealing. In addition, the fixing structure design is complex, with many cleaning dead spots, failing to meet the hygiene requirements of food processing equipment, and has a low degree of automation, unable to meet the high-frequency steaming tray replacement needs of modern production lines. These technical defects directly lead to long equipment downtime, decreased product qualification rates, and severely restrict the improvement of production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution:

[0022] A shrimp tail steamer with a quick-release steaming tray, comprising:

[0023] Cabinet 1 has an opening on one side, with two cabinet doors 2 hinged to the opening. A steam generating base 3 is located at the bottom of cabinet 1, with four stabilizing feet 4 at the bottom of the steam generating base 3. Four pairs of steaming tray holders 5 are symmetrically arranged on the inner walls of both sides of cabinet 1. A guide block 6 is fixedly connected inside the steaming tray holder 5. The guide block 6 gradually increases in slope from the side closer to the cabinet door 2 to the side farther away from the cabinet door 2. The cabinet 1 is opened and closed by opening and closing the cabinet door 2. The steam generating base 3 can generate high-temperature steam. The stabilizing feet 4 can ensure the overall stability of cabinet 1. The guide block 6 inside the steaming tray holder 5 can guide the steaming tray 1, making it easier for the steaming tray to slide into the steaming tray holder 5.

[0024] A servo motor 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the cabinet 1, and a quick-release mechanism for the steaming tray is installed inside the cabinet 1.

[0025] The quick-release mechanism for the steaming tray includes two worm gears 8 rotatably connected to the inner walls of both sides of the cabinet 1. Worm wheels 9 are rotatably connected to the corresponding positions of the steaming tray holders 5 inside the cabinet 1, and the worm wheels 9 mesh with the worm gears 8. A clamping block 10 is slidably connected inside the steaming tray holder 5.
