Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of seafood processing, and in particular to a vacuum packaging device for seafood. Background Technology

[0002] Vacuum packaging, also known as depressurized packaging, involves removing all the air from the packaging container and sealing it to maintain a high depressurization state inside the bag. The scarcity of air is equivalent to a low-oxygen effect, which eliminates the conditions for microorganisms to survive, thereby ensuring the freshness of the fruit and preventing disease and rot.

[0003] Existing vacuum packaging equipment for seafood, such as the one disclosed in utility model patent application number 201721557552.8, mainly includes a movable support, a main body, and a vacuum cover. The movable support is located on top of the main body and is movably connected to the main body. The vacuum cover is located on top of the main body and is movably connected to the main body via the movable support. The vacuum pump has an internal waterproof layer. In use, the vacuum packaging equipment is moved to the desired position, then the power supply is turned on. The vacuum cover is then placed on the right working platform, and the packaging bag containing the seafood is placed on the left working platform. The opening of the seafood packaging bag is placed on the heating strip. The vacuum cover is then moved to the left working platform via the movable support, so that the vacuum cover is tightly connected to the left working platform. Finally, the switch is pressed.

[0004] However, seafood usually contains a lot of water, blood, or mucus. Existing vacuum equipment can easily extract these liquids along with the seafood, causing equipment failure. Moreover, after packaging, manual depressurization and removal of the packaging are required, which is very troublesome and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a vacuum packaging device for seafood that not only prevents liquid leakage from the seafood packaging and ensures stable operation of the device, but also facilitates the discharge of materials after packaging, thereby improving work efficiency.

The sealing mechanism is installed on the working box to enhance the sealing effect of the device. Both sets of discharge mechanisms are installed on the working box to facilitate the discharge of seafood packaging. The sealing mechanism is installed on the working box to seal the seafood packaging. The vacuuming mechanism is installed on the working box to extract air from the device.

The two sets of support plates support the seafood packaging, and the two sets of electric cylinders push the clamping plate to squeeze the seafood packaging, so that the air inside the seafood packaging is initially discharged and the bottom end of the seafood packaging is fixed to ensure the vertical state of the seafood packaging. After the vacuum is completed, the cylinder pulls the support plate to flip downward, and the two sets of electric cylinders drive the clamping plate to retract, so that the seafood packaging falls naturally under the action of gravity.

[0010] Preferably, the edges of both sets of support plates are covered with sealing strips; by applying sealing strips, the sealing effect of the two sets of support plates when they are closed is enhanced, and air leakage is prevented from affecting the vacuuming effect.
