Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of food processing, and in particular to blanching technology in food processing, specifically to a blanching device. Background Technology

[0002] The processing of pre-prepared foods is a highly standardized and automated process designed to ensure food safety, stable flavor, ease of storage, and rapid reheating. In the processing of pre-prepared foods, meat raw materials generally need to be blanched first to slowly remove blood and impurities, achieving a deodorizing effect. During blanching, solid ingredients such as ginger and scallions, as well as liquid ingredients such as cooking wine, are usually added to achieve better blanching results. Currently, food processing plants generally use a large pot for blanching. After blanching, the meat pieces and solid ingredients are mixed together and difficult to separate. Furthermore, the blanched meat pieces generally need to be manually removed, and retrieving meat pieces from the bottom of the pot is quite troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the aforementioned deficiencies in the prior art, this application provides a blanching device that can separate meat pieces from solid auxiliary materials and makes it easier to retrieve meat pieces, thus having strong practicality.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technology: A blanching device, comprising: A workbench is provided with a heating seat, and a heating pot is provided on the heating seat.

Detailed Implementation

[0013] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the implementation methods of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the embodiments described in the present utility model are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0014] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a blanching device, including a workbench 1, an outer chamber 2, and an inner chamber 3.

[0015] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a heating seat 11 is provided on the workbench 1, and a heating pot 12 is provided on the heating seat 11. The heating seat 11 is used to heat the heating pot 12 and the water inside it. The top side wall of the heating pot 12 is provided with a water inlet 13, and the bottom side wall is provided with a water outlet 14. Both the water inlet 13 and the water outlet 14 are used to connect with external pipelines to supply water to the heating pot 12 or to discharge water from the heating pot 12.

[0016] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the outer chamber 2 is a rectangular chamber, which is located above the workbench 1 along the height direction of the workbench 1, that is, the height direction of the outer chamber 2 is parallel to the height direction of the workbench 1; the outer chamber 2 is movable along the length and height direction of the workbench 1, the top of the outer chamber 2 is open and its side wall has multiple first through holes 21, which are used to allow water to flow through.

[0017] Specifically, such as Figure 3As shown, the inner chamber 3 is a rectangular chamber, which is located inside the outer chamber 2 along the height direction of the workbench 1, that is, the height direction of the inner chamber 3 is parallel to the height direction of the workbench 1; the inner chamber 3 moves with the outer chamber 2, the top of the inner chamber 3 is open and its side wall has multiple second through holes 31, which are used to allow water to flow through.

[0018] During operation, the meat raw materials are placed in the inner chamber 3, and the solid auxiliary materials such as scallions and ginger are placed in the outer chamber 2 outside the inner chamber 3. The outer chamber 2 is moved so that it enters the heating pot 12, and the top of the outer chamber 2 and the top of the inner chamber 3 both extend beyond the top of the heating pot 12. Water is supplied to the heating pot 12 through the water inlet 13. After the water has submerged all the meat raw materials and solid auxiliary materials, the heating pot 12 is heated through the heating base 11 so that the water in the heating pot 11 slowly rises from room temperature to boiling for blanching. After the designated blanching time, the water in the heating pot 12 is drained through the water outlet 14, and the outer chamber 2 is moved to the unloading point. Since there is no water in the outer chamber 2 and the inner chamber 3 at this time, it is more convenient to remove the meat pieces and solid auxiliary materials. Furthermore, because the meat pieces and solid auxiliary materials are in different positions, the meat pieces and solid auxiliary materials are separated.

[0019] Preferred, such as Figure 1 As shown, a first mounting bracket 4 is provided on both sides of the worktable 1. One of the first mounting brackets 4 contains a first electric lead screw 41 along the length of the worktable 1. The drive shaft of the first electric lead screw 41 is threadedly fitted with a first mating block 42. The other first mounting bracket 4 contains a first sliding rod 43 parallel to the drive shaft of the first electric lead screw 41. A first slider 44 is slidably mounted on the first sliding rod 43. Both the first mating block 42 and the first slider 44 are provided with second mounting brackets 45. One of the second mounting brackets 45 contains a second electric lead screw 46 along the height of the worktable 1. The drive shaft of the second electric lead screw 46 is threadedly fitted with a second mating block 47. The other second mounting bracket 45 contains a first sliding rod 46 parallel to the drive shaft of the second electric lead screw 46. The second slide bar 48 has a second slider 49 slidably mounted on it. The second mating block 47 and the second slider 49 are connected to both sides of the connecting plate 410. The connecting plate 410 is connected to the connecting rod 411. The connecting rod 411 on the same side of the worktable 1 is connected to the support bar 412. The top two sides of the outer chamber 2 are provided with a placement rack 22, which is placed on the support bar 412. The first electric screw 41 is used to drive the outer chamber 2 to move along the length of the worktable 1. The second electric screw 46 is used to drive the outer chamber 2 to move along the height of the worktable 1. The outer chamber 2 is placed on the support bar 412 by the placement rack 22. This design allows the outer chamber 2 and the inner chamber 3 inside to be easily removed for cleaning or emptying.

[0020] Preferred, such as Figure 2As shown, the bottom of the outer compartment 2 has an opening 23. The projection of the bottom of the inner compartment 3 along its own height direction onto the bottom of the outer compartment 2 coincides with the opening 23. A partition 24 is connected to the edge of the opening 23. The partition 24 is connected to the bottom of the inner compartment 3. A lifting ring 25 is provided inside the outer compartment 2 along its own height direction. When the lifting ring 25 moves, its inner ring surface slides in contact with the outer side of the partition 24 and the outer side of the inner compartment 3, and its outer ring surface contacts the inner side of the outer compartment 2. A lifting plate 32 is provided inside the inner compartment 3 along its own height direction. When the lifting plate 32 moves, its outer edge slides in contact with the inner side of the inner compartment 3. With this design, when it is necessary to remove meat pieces and solid auxiliary materials, the lifting ring 25 and the lifting plate 32 can push them to a position close to the top of the outer compartment 2 and the inner compartment 3, respectively, making it easier to remove meat pieces and solid auxiliary materials. At the same time, the lifting ring 25 and the lifting plate 32 can also scrape the meat pieces and solid auxiliary materials adhering to the outer compartment 2 and the inner compartment 3, making it easy to remove all meat pieces and solid auxiliary materials.

[0021] Preferred, such as Figure 1 As shown, the top of the inner compartment 3 is higher than the top of the outer compartment 2, and the height difference matches the height of the partition 24. The outer compartment 2 has four first limiting rods 26 along its own height direction, and all four are positioned near the inner side of the outer compartment 2. A lifting ring 25 is slidably sleeved on the first limiting rods 26. The inner compartment 3 has four second limiting rods 33 along its own height direction, and all four are positioned near the inner side of the inner compartment 3. A lifting plate 32 is slidably sleeved on the second limiting rods 33. The bottom of the outer compartment 2 has two first top openings 27, and the bottom of the inner compartment 3 has a second top opening 34. The worktable 1 has dimensions matching the first top openings 27 and 24 along its own height direction. The two first push rods 15 and one second push rod 16 of the second top opening 34 are matched here so that the first push rod 15 and the second push rod 16 can extend into the first top opening 27 and the second top opening 34 respectively; the top of the second push rod 16 is set higher than the top of the first push rod 15 and the height difference matches the height of the partition; when the outer compartment 2 moves along the length of the workbench 1 to a predetermined position, the first top opening 27 and the second top opening 34 are coaxial with the first push rod 15 and the second push rod 16 respectively; with this design, when the outer compartment 2 moves to the predetermined position, the outer compartment 2 moves downward, and the first push rod 15 and the second push rod 16 extend into the first top opening 27 and the second top opening 34 respectively and contact the lifting ring 25 and the lifting plate 32 to lift them up, without the need to set a separate drive structure for the lifting ring 25 and the lifting plate 32.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this application without departing from the spirit and scope of this application.
