Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steamer draining technology, specifically to a steamer cleaning and draining device. Background Technology

[0002] The steamer basket is a traditional Chinese kitchen utensil for steaming food. It is usually made of bamboo, wood, or metal and has a multi-layered cylindrical structure. Each layer has a perforated partition at the bottom, allowing multiple foods to be steamed simultaneously when stacked. Cooking is achieved through heating with steam from the bottom. It is commonly used to make steamed buns, dumplings, and other wheat-based foods. It is characterized by even heating and preservation of original flavor, and is a typical representative of Chinese steaming culture.

[0003] The main reason for draining the steamer baskets after cleaning is to prevent residual moisture from breeding bacteria and mold, and to avoid the steam condensing into water droplets and affecting the taste of food during the next use. In addition, thorough draining can extend the lifespan of bamboo and wooden steamer baskets, preventing them from becoming moldy and deformed due to long-term dampness, while reducing the risk of scale buildup and rust on metal steamer baskets.

[0004] In food processing plants and other similar settings, a large number of steamer baskets are used. The natural draining time in these baskets is relatively long, resulting in low utilization efficiency. Therefore, more steamer baskets need to be installed, leading to higher operating costs.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a steamer basket cleaning and draining device, comprising:

[0026] Workbench 1;

[0027] Centrifugal draining mechanism 2 is located on top of workbench 1 and is used to perform centrifugal draining and drying functions.

[0028] Water blocking mechanism 3 is installed on the top of workbench 1 and is used to block wastewater.

[0029] The centrifugal dewatering mechanism 2 includes a first support column 21, which is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A drive motor 22 is fixedly installed on the side of the first support column 21, and a rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected to the other side of the first support column 21. The output shaft of the drive motor 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft 23. A square tube 24 is fixedly installed at the end of the rotating shaft 23 away from the first support column 21. A nozzle 25 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the square tube 24. The centrifugal dewatering mechanism 2 can fix the steamer 262. Then, by controlling the operation of the drive motor 22, the square tube 24 is rotated through the transmission of the rotating shaft 23, which can drive the fixed steamer 262 to rotate and centrifuge dewater it, thereby improving the dehydration efficiency. At the same time, the centrifugal dewatering mechanism 2 can also perform hot air drying on the steamer 262. Compared with natural dewatering, it can significantly improve the reuse efficiency of the steamer 262 and greatly reduce the number of steamers 262 required, thereby reducing costs.

[0030] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, a connecting frame 26 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the square tube 24, and an annular seat 261 is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting frame 26. A steamer 262 is movably inserted into the inner cavity of the annular seat 261. Through the design of the connecting frame 26 and the annular seat 261, the steamer 262 can be movably supported on the square tube 24.

[0031] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a protrusion 263 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the annular seat 261. A limit block 264 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the protrusion 263. After the steamer 262 is inserted into the annular seat 261, the limit block 264 is manually rotated to make the limit block 264 overlap with the steamer 262, thus completing the limitation of the steamer 262. Conversely, the steamer 262 can be quickly disassembled.

[0032] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the centrifugal draining mechanism 2 also includes a second support column 27 and a hot air blower device 274. The second support column 27 is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A horizontal pipe 271 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the second support column 27. The end of the horizontal pipe 271 is fixedly connected to the end of the square pipe 24. The hot air blower device 274 is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A bent pipe 273 is fixedly connected to the output end of the hot air blower device 274. A rotary joint 272 is fixedly connected to the end of the bent pipe 273. The end of the rotary joint 272 away from the bent pipe 273 is rotatably connected to the end of the horizontal pipe 271. During the rotation of the square pipe 24 as a whole, the hot air blower device 274 can be controlled to work, absorb air and heat the air, so that the air passes through the bent pipe 273, the rotary joint 272 and the horizontal pipe 271 and is transported to the inner cavity of the square pipe 24. The hot air is then output from the nozzle 25 and sprayed onto the steamer 262 to realize the function of drying the steamer 262.

[0033] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 5As shown, the water-blocking mechanism 3 includes a support leg 31, which is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A water-blocking housing 32 is fixedly installed on the top of the support leg 31. A rotating arm 33 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the water-blocking housing 32. A first magnetic block 34 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating arm 33. A cover plate 35 is fixedly installed at the end of the rotating arm 33. A second magnetic block 36 is fixedly installed at the opening of the water-blocking housing 32. The water-blocking housing 32 and the cover plate 35 are both made of iron alloy. In the initial state, the cover plate 35 is magnetically connected to the second magnetic block 36. The water-blocking housing 32 and the cover plate 35 are used to block the water discharged from the centrifuge. If the steamer 262 needs to be disassembled, the cover plate 35 can be rotated open, causing the first magnetic block 34 to be magnetically connected to the outer wall of the water-blocking housing 32. The open state of the cover plate 35 can be temporarily locked for use.

[0034] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, a side baffle 37 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the side wall near the water-blocking shell 32. A drain pipe 38 is fixedly connected to the side of the side baffle 37. Through the design of the side baffle 37, the wastewater in the inner cavity of the water-blocking shell 32 can be blocked and then discharged from the drain pipe 38.

[0035] Working principle: During use, the cover plate 35 is rotated open, causing the first magnetic block 34 to magnetically connect to the outer wall of the water-blocking housing 32, temporarily locking the open state of the cover plate 35. Then, the steamer 262 is installed. After the steamer 262 is inserted into the inside of the annular seat 261, the limiting block 264 is manually rotated to make the limiting block 264 overlap with the steamer 262, thus limiting the steamer 262. Then, the cover plate 35 is closed, and then the drive motor 22 is controlled to drive the square tube 24 to rotate through the transmission of the rotating shaft 23. This drives the fixed steamer 262 to rotate, centrifugally draining water. At the same time, the hot air blower 274 can be controlled to work, absorbing and heating the air, so that the air passes through the bent pipe 273, the rotary joint 272, and the horizontal pipe 271 and is delivered to the inner cavity of the square tube 24. The hot air is then output from the nozzle 25 and sprayed onto the steamer 262 to achieve the function of drying the steamer 262.

[0036] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
