Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a composite sandwich high-temperature retort pouch. Background Technology

[0002] In food processing and everyday cooking, steaming and boiling are common and important cooking methods that retain the nutrients in food and make it tender and flavorful. Traditional steaming and boiling methods typically involve placing food directly in a steamer or pot for heating, but this method has some significant drawbacks. For example, food easily comes into direct contact with the pot during steaming or boiling, causing it to stick together, break, and affect its appearance and quality; moreover, when different foods are steamed together, flavors can easily mix, affecting the unique taste of each dish.

[0003] To address these issues, various types of retort pouches have emerged on the market. Most existing retort pouches are single-layered, which presents several shortcomings when cooking food. Firstly, during high-temperature cooking, hot water can only slowly penetrate from the outside of the pouch, resulting in low heating efficiency and prolonged cooking time. This not only wastes energy but may also affect the taste and nutritional value of the food. Secondly, during cooking, the food generates steam, increasing the internal pressure of the retort pouch. The inner liner is prone to excessive pressure due to expansion, and the single-layer structure lacks an effective cushioning mechanism, making it susceptible to rupture and food leakage. This not only wastes food but may also contaminate the cooking equipment. To address the aforementioned problems, this technical solution proposes a composite sandwich high-temperature retort pouch. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of food sticking together and breaking, and cross-contamination of flavors in traditional steaming methods, as well as the low heating efficiency and easy cracking of single-layer steaming bags. Therefore, a composite sandwich high-temperature steaming bag is proposed.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A composite sandwich high-temperature retort pouch, comprising: The outer supporting bag has multiple flow holes on its inner walls on both sides; The inner liner is fixedly connected inside the outer support bag, and the inner wall of the inner liner has multiple pleated grooves. A sealing mechanism is installed on the top of the outer supporting bag and is used to seal the outer supporting bag. A buffer mechanism is provided on the sealing mechanism; During the heating process, hot water enters the outer supporting bag through the flow hole to directly heat the inner liner. When the inner liner expands, the pleated grooves provide a buffer, and the buffer mechanism further buffers the pressure to prevent the inner liner from bursting.

[0006] In one possible design, the sealing mechanism includes a frame member fixedly connected to the top of the outer supporting bag, a cover plate pivotally connected to the top of the frame member, a sealing gasket provided at the bottom of the cover plate, the sealing gasket being tightly fitted to the top of the frame member, and a snap fastener assembly installed on one side of the cover plate, the snap fastener assembly being connected to one side of the frame member.

[0007] In one possible design, the snap-fit ​​assembly includes a locking plate pivotally connected to one side of the cover plate, a locking shaft fixedly connected to one side of the frame member, and a hook provided on the side of the locking plate near the locking shaft, the hook engaging with the locking shaft.

[0008] In one possible design, the cushioning mechanism includes a venting duct that passes through and is fixedly connected to the cover plate, and a cushioning airbag is connected to the venting duct via a docking assembly, the cushioning airbag being capable of contraction or expansion. During the heating process, when the inner liner expands, the buffer airbag expands to buffer the pressure.

[0009] In one possible design, the docking assembly includes a threaded sealing cap threaded onto the venting duct, a support tube body being fixedly connected through the top inner wall of the threaded sealing cap, the bottom opening of the buffer airbag being fixedly connected to the top end of the support tube body, and a sealing gasket ring being fixedly connected to the top inner wall of the threaded sealing cap, the bottom end of the sealing gasket ring extending into the venting duct and being interference-fitted with the inner wall of the venting duct.

[0010] In one possible design, the inner wall of the inner lining bag is fixedly connected in an array with multiple connecting strips.

[0011] In one possible design, a lifting rope is fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate.

[0012] In this application, during use, the liquid food to be steamed is first placed into the inner liner bag. At this time, multiple connecting strips fixedly installed in a matrix on the inner wall of the inner liner bag provide connection and support, improving its support strength and preventing excessive deformation of the inner liner bag during food placement. After the food is placed, the cover plate is flipped over, so that the sealing gasket at the bottom of the cover plate fits tightly against the top of the frame component, completing the initial sealing of the outer support bag. Then, the locking plate connected to one side of the cover plate is flipped and rotated, so that the hook on the locking plate near the locking shaft on the side of the locking plate engages with the locking shaft fixedly installed on one side of the frame component, positioning the cover plate and achieving a stable seal of the frame component, preventing food leakage during heating. Afterward, the entire steaming bag is placed into the steaming pot. Because multiple flow holes are evenly spaced on both sides of the inner wall of the outer support bag, hot water can enter the outer support bag through these flow holes, directly heating the inner liner bag, improving heating efficiency. During the heating process, the food generates steam, causing the inner liner to expand. Multiple evenly spaced pleats and grooves on the inner wall of the inner liner provide cushioning. Simultaneously, a cushioning mechanism on the sealing mechanism functions, expanding the air bladder connected to the sealing plate via a docking assembly. This further cushions and protects the inner liner, preventing it from bursting due to excessive pressure. The threaded sealing cap in the docking assembly is threaded onto the air duct. A support tube fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the threaded sealing cap is fixedly connected to the bottom opening of the air bladder. A sealing gasket fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the threaded sealing cap fits tightly against the inner wall of the air duct, achieving a good seal and preventing water from flowing into the inner liner or liquid food from leaking into the cooking pot. After cooking, the entire cooking bag, still at high temperature, can be easily removed from the cooking pot by pulling the carrying loop at one end of the lifting rope fixedly installed on the top of the sealing plate.

[0013] Beneficial effects: In this utility model, the composite sandwich high-temperature cooking bag, through the sealing mechanism, can make the sealing gasket and the frame components fit tightly by flipping the sealing plate. After food is put into the inner liner bag, the outer supporting bag can be sealed, thereby avoiding the problem of food leakage when cooking food. In this utility model, the composite sandwich high-temperature cooking bag, through a buffer mechanism, can buffer and protect the inner liner bag when it expands during the heating process of food by expanding the buffer air bladder. The composite sandwich high-temperature cooking bag manufactured by this utility model has an outer layer flow hole that allows hot water to directly heat the inner liner, improving heating efficiency; pleated grooves and buffer airbags provide cushioning for the expansion of the inner liner, preventing it from bursting; connecting strips enhance the inner layer's support strength; a sealing structure prevents food leakage and odor transfer; and a carrying buckle makes it easy to remove, solving many problems of traditional cooking methods.
