Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of food distribution, and in particular to a hot chain food distribution device based on a central kitchen. Background Technology

[0002] A central kitchen, also known as a central distribution center, primarily processes raw materials into semi-finished or finished products, which are then distributed to various chain stores for reheating or repackaging before being sold to customers. This procedural production process significantly improves efficiency, but the actual space in a streamlined kitchen is limited. The quantity of hot-chain food produced is inconsistent, and the number of operators is not fixed. Large machinery would then take up a lot of space, and the high temperature of hot-chain food immediately after production makes handling and packaging inconvenient.

[0003] A food distribution and sorting device disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN220559866U, authorized and published on March 8, 2024, includes support legs. Cross braces are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of each support leg. An upper conveyor belt is slidably connected to the top surface of the top cross brace, and a lower conveyor belt is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the bottom cross brace. A hopper is detachably connected to one end of the upper conveyor belt, and an annular conveyor disc is detachably connected to the other end. Robotic arms are evenly arranged on the side of the conveyor disc. The advantages of this invention compared to existing technologies are: flexible and convenient use, strong practicality, easy assembly, applicability to different occasions, no damage to food during transmission and sorting, safety and reliability, intelligent operation, labor saving, and improved efficiency. The disadvantages of this invention are limited operational flexibility and a relatively large space requirement. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention aims to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as limited operational flexibility, large space occupation, and inconvenience in handling and packaging. It provides a hot chain food delivery device based on a central kitchen that offers greater operational flexibility, smaller space occupation, and easier handling and packaging.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A central kitchen-based hot-chain food delivery device includes: A worktable is placed on the kitchen floor. The upper surface of the worktable has an L-shaped cross-section. A groove is provided on the upper surface of the vertical section of the L-shaped upper surface of the worktable. The two ends of the groove are respectively connected to the two sides of the worktable. A conveyor belt is placed in a groove. The conveyor belt is equipped with two rotating rollers. The two ends of the rotating rollers are respectively engaged with the front and rear inner side walls of the groove. The conveyor belt is wrapped around the outer surface of the two rotating rollers. One end of one of the rotating rollers is equipped with a rotating motor. The rotating motor is placed in the operating table and fixedly connected to the operating table. The rotating shaft of the rotating motor is fixedly connected to the rotating roller. Several fixed rods are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the conveyor belt. The cross-sectional shape of the fixed rod is L-shaped. The horizontal end of the L-shaped fixed rod is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the conveyor belt. The vertical section of the L-shaped fixed rod is placed above the upper end surface of the horizontal section of the L-shaped fixed rod on the operating platform. Several placement racks, corresponding to fixed rods, are provided. The cross-sectional shape of the placement racks is L-shaped. The vertical section of the L-shaped placement rack is engaged with the vertical section of the L-shaped fixed rod. The placement racks are placed above the operating table. A grip plate is provided on the side of the placement rack. The cross-sectional shape of the grip plate is L-shaped. The horizontal section of the grip plate is placed above the horizontal section of the L-shaped placement rack. One end of the vertical section of the L-shaped grip plate is fixedly connected to the side of the placement rack.

[0006] In use, the rotating motor is turned on, causing the rotating roller to drive the conveyor belt in the groove to rotate. The fixed rod will then rotate on the operating table. The operator at the last stage of the hot chain food delivery will place the packaged food on the placement rack and then secure it to the fixed rod. The conveyor belt will then move it to the packaging area. The packaging personnel will use their hands to hold the handle and remove the placement rack along with the food for packaging. During this process, the operating table will not be occupied by the placement rack, allowing other operations to be performed. This achieves greater flexibility in operating space, smaller footprint, and easier access for packaging.

[0007] Preferably, the L-shaped vertical section of the fixing rod is provided with a support plate, which is perpendicular to the L-shaped vertical section of the fixing rod and is fixedly connected to the fixing rod. The L-shaped horizontal section of the placement rack rests on the support plate. The support plate allows the placement rack to be placed more stably.

[0008] Preferably, the L-shaped vertical section of the fixing rod has a slot on one side near the placement rack, the upper end of which communicates with the upper end of the L-shaped horizontal section of the fixing rod. The slot has a T-shaped cross-section. The L-shaped vertical section of the placement rack has a locking block on one side near the fixing rod, the shape of which corresponds to the shape of the slot. The locking block is placed inside the slot from top to bottom, and the placement rack is engaged with the fixing rod through the cooperation of the locking block and the slot. The slot and locking block facilitate locking and removing the placement rack.

[0009] Preferably, the L-shaped horizontal section of the placement rack has a stop at one end of the fixed rod, and the stop is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the L-shaped horizontal section of the placement rack. The stop prevents food from slipping out and falling.

[0010] Preferably, silicone pads are provided on the lower end face of the L-shaped horizontal section of the placement rack and the upper end face of the L-shaped horizontal section of the handle, and the silicone pads are fixedly connected to the placement rack and the handle, respectively. The silicone pads prevent burns.

[0011] Preferably, the placement rack has perforated holes that are connected vertically. These perforated holes reduce the weight of the placement rack.

[0012] Preferably, a placement platform is provided on the side of the operating table, positioned on the side facing the rotation direction of the conveyor belt, and fixedly connected to the side of the operating table. The placement platform facilitates final packaging.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: more flexible operating space, smaller space occupation, and more convenient handling and packaging; the tray can make the rack more stable; the slots and blocks make it easy to lock and pick up the rack; the foot guards can prevent food from slipping out and falling; the silicone pads prevent burns; the hollow holes can reduce the weight of the rack; and the placement platform facilitates final packaging.
