Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bamboo shoot processing and cooking technology, specifically a bamboo shoot processing cooking pot with a sterilization and disinfection mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Bamboo shoots, rich in dietary fiber and amino acids, are a popular natural food among consumers. Steaming and boiling are crucial steps in their processing, and steaming pots are the core equipment for deep processing of bamboo shoots. They are mainly used to heat fresh bamboo shoots with high-temperature steam or hot water to achieve key processing goals such as softening the fiber, removing astringency, and inactivating endogenous enzymes, laying the foundation for subsequent pickling, canning, and ready-to-eat processing. Their structure typically consists of a pot body, heating system, stirring device, inlet and outlet ports, and temperature control system. The volume varies from tens to hundreds of liters depending on the production scale, meeting the needs of small-batch workshop production to large-scale industrial processing.

[0003] For example, Chinese utility model patent application number 202222898234.5 discloses a steaming pot for processing bamboo shoots. By designing a motor, the motor can drive a scraper to rotate, preventing material from adhering to the inner wall of the pot and causing scorching. By designing a filter screen, the processed bamboo shoots can be filtered, allowing small particles of impurities and residues to be discharged downwards, achieving the purpose of impurity removal. Furthermore, the rotation of the scraper, which drives the fixed block to rotate, can also cause the filter screen to shake up and down, preventing impurities from clogging the screen and preventing liquid residue from being discharged. However, this device still has certain shortcomings. When the water level in the steamer drops due to evaporation, it cannot be replenished in time. Insufficient water level will interrupt steam production. At this time, not only is it difficult to remove the stubborn bacteria on the surface of the bamboo shoots, but it also leads to incomplete disinfection, excessive microbial indicators in the product, and affects food safety.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a steaming pot for bamboo shoot processing with a sterilization and disinfection mechanism to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

A connecting pipe 9 is installed below the water receiving ring 7. The connecting pipe 9 is connected to the drain groove 8. A second connecting cover 10 is installed at the lower end of the connecting pipe 9. The condensate generated when the sealing pot cover 6 comes into contact with the pot opening 2 flows into the drain groove 8 of the water receiving ring 7 and is discharged through the connecting pipe 9. The collected condensate can be discharged by opening the second connecting cover 10 to keep the area around the pot opening 2 dry. A water storage tank 11 is installed on the upper surface of the sealing pot cover 6.

[0024] Inside the sealed pot lid 6, on the left and right sides respectively, are installed a first connecting box 12 and a second connecting box 13. The first connecting box 12 and the second connecting box 13 are designed with high-temperature resistance and are positioned away from the exhaust valve on the sealed pot lid 6. The first connecting box 12 and the second connecting box 13 are made of high-temperature resistant materials to adapt to high-temperature steam environments. Their position avoids obstructing steam flow, ensuring stable pressure during sterilization. Steam nozzles 14 are installed on the lower surface of both the first connecting box 12 and the second connecting box 13. Multiple steam nozzles 14 are connected to the first connecting box 12 and the second connecting box 13 via pipes. Each pipe is equipped with a check valve.
