Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beef tenderizing technology, and in particular to a beef tenderizing device. Background Technology
[0002] Physical methods include mechanical tenderizing, high-pressure tenderizing, ultrasonic tenderizing, and electrical stimulation tenderizing. Chemical methods include carbonate tenderizing, cysteine hydrochloride tenderizing, and polyphosphate tenderizing. Biological methods include endogenous protease, exogenous protease, and hormone tenderizing. Other methods include acid removal tenderizing and marinating tenderizing. Mechanical tenderizing often utilizes external mechanical force to lengthen the muscle segments and cause the connective tissues such as the muscle membrane to loosen and break down, ultimately making the meat tender. Commonly used methods include mechanical tumbling and reconstitution tenderizing.
[0003] However, in practical applications, most beef is tumbled manually. Prolonged use makes the tenderizing process more laborious, which affects the tenderizing operation of the device. Also, during the tenderizing process, the thickness of the cut beef varies. If the rollers cannot be made to fit the surface of the beef according to the thickness, the tenderizing operation of the device will be affected in subsequent use. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model discloses a beef tenderizing device, which aims to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A beef tenderizing device includes a base, a tumbling assembly on the upper surface of the base, and a support and protection assembly inside the tumbling assembly.
[0006] The tumbling assembly includes a support plate fixedly installed on one side of the base. A cover is fixedly installed on the top of the support plate. A motor is fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the cover. A turntable is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the motor. A connecting rod is rotatably connected to the outer ring of the turntable via a rotating shaft. A push rod is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting rod via the rotating shaft. One end of the push rod passes through the cover and extends to the outside of the cover. A pull rod is fixedly installed to one end of the push rod. A pressure roller is rotatably connected to one end of the pull rod via a support and protection assembly. A shell is provided on the upper surface of the base. The tumbling assembly can tumble the beef inside the shell during use, thereby using mechanical external force to lengthen the muscle segments and cause the connective tissues such as the muscle membrane to become loose and broken by the impact of external force, ultimately making the meat softer. This makes it less labor-intensive and requires no manual operation, thus facilitating subsequent use.
[0007] The support and protection assembly includes a limiting groove formed on the housing, a limiting plate slidably connected inside the limiting groove, and a rotating rod fixedly installed at the axis of the pressure roller, one end of the rotating rod passing through the limiting plate and extending to the outside of the limiting plate.
[0008] With the support and protection components in place, the device can be protected during use. The return spring and damping rod also provide convenient protection. When processing beef of different thicknesses, the pressure roller can be made to fit the surface of the beef according to its thickness, so that the tenderizing process of the device will not be affected during subsequent use.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the base is provided with a support assembly, which includes support rings fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the base, and the two support rings are fixedly connected by a positioning plate.
[0010] The support components facilitate positioning during use, making subsequent placement easier and improving the stability of the component.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a rod hole is provided on one side of the cover for the push rod to pass through, the size of the rod hole being 1.5 times the size of the push rod, and an opening slot is provided on the top of the housing for the push rod to pass through.
[0012] The design includes rod holes and slots to facilitate the passage of the push rod during use, thus making subsequent use easier.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, a door is hinged to one side of the cover, and a handle is fixedly installed on one side of the door, with anti-slip texture on the surface of the handle.
[0014] The handles and doors allow for easy opening and closing of the enclosure, facilitating the inspection and maintenance of the internal components.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, semicircular strips are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting plate, and the surface of the semicircular strips is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove.
[0016] The semi-circular strip facilitates the movement of the limiting plate within the limiting groove during use.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the limiting plate has a cavity inside, and a slider is slidably connected inside the cavity. A round tube is fixedly installed at the bottom of the slider. The bottom of the round tube passes through the limiting plate and extends to the outside of the limiting plate. A ball is embedded at the bottom of the round tube, and the surface of the ball is in rolling contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove.
[0018] The ball bearings increase the ease of sliding between the limiting plate and the limiting groove during use, reduce frictional resistance, and improve the ease of use of this component.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, a damping rod is fixedly mounted on the top of the slider, the top of the damping rod is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the cavity, and a return spring is arranged around the surface of the damping rod, the top of the return spring is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the cavity, and the bottom of the return spring is fixedly connected to the top of the slider.
[0020] With the damping rod and return spring, the rotating rod and pressure roller on the limit plate can be reset and buffered during use, so that the pressure roller can contact the surface of the beef.
[0021] As can be seen from the above, the beef tenderizing device provided by this utility model has the following technical effects.
[0022] Firstly, the tumbling component allows for tumbling of the beef inside the shell during use. This mechanical force stretches the muscle segments and breaks down connective tissues such as the muscle membrane, ultimately making the meat softer and requiring less manual operation, thus facilitating subsequent use.
[0023] Secondly, the support and protection components can protect the equipment during use. The return spring and damping rod also provide convenient protection. When processing beef of different thicknesses, the pressure roller can be made to fit the surface of the beef according to its thickness, so that the tenderizing process of the device will not be affected during subsequent use.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0030] Reference Figures 1-4 A beef tenderizing device includes a base 1, a tumbling assembly 2 on the upper surface of the base 1, and a support and protection assembly 3 inside the tumbling assembly 2.
[0031] The tumbling assembly 2 includes a support plate 200 fixedly installed on one side of the base 1. A cover 201 is fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 200. A motor 202 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the cover 201. A turntable 203 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the motor 202. A connecting rod 204 is rotatably connected to the outer ring of the turntable 203 via a rotating shaft. One end of the connecting rod 204 is rotatably connected to a push rod 205 via a rotating shaft. One end of the push rod 205 passes through the cover 201 and extends to the outside of the cover 201. A pull rod 206 is fixedly installed on one end of the push rod 205. A pressure roller 207 is rotatably connected to one end of the pull rod 206 via a support and protection assembly 3. A housing 208 is provided on the upper surface of the base 1. The tumbling assembly 2, during use, can tumble the beef inside the housing 208, thereby using mechanical force to lengthen the muscle segments. The process involves subjecting connective tissues such as the fascia to external impact, causing them to loosen and break down, ultimately softening the meat and making it easier to handle without manual intervention, thus facilitating subsequent use. One side of the cover 201 has a rod hole for the push rod 205 to pass through; the size of the rod hole is 1.5 times the size of the push rod 205. The top of the shell 208 has an opening slot for the push rod 205 to pass through. The rod hole and opening slot facilitate the passage of the push rod 205 during use, thus facilitating subsequent use. A door 209 is hinged to one side of the cover 201, and a handle is fixedly installed on one side of the door 209. The handle has anti-slip textures on its surface. The handle and door 209 facilitate the opening and closing of the cover 201 during use, thereby facilitating the inspection and maintenance of the internal components.
[0032] The support and protection assembly 3 includes a limiting groove formed on the housing 208. A limiting plate 300 is slidably connected inside the limiting groove. A rotating rod 301 is fixedly installed at the axis of the pressure roller 207. One end of the rotating rod 301 passes through the limiting plate 300 and extends to the outside of the limiting plate 300. The support and protection assembly 3 can protect the roller during use. Simultaneously, under the action of the return spring 306 and the damping rod 307, it achieves a convenient protective effect. Therefore, when processing beef of different thicknesses, the pressure roller 207 can be made to fit the surface of the beef according to its thickness, so that the tenderizing operation of the device will not be affected during subsequent use. Semicircular strips 302 are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting plate 300. The surface of the semicircular strips 302 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove. The semicircular strips 302 facilitate the movement of the limiting plate 300 within the limiting groove during use. A cavity is formed inside the limiting plate 300, and a slider 303 is slidably connected inside the cavity. A circular tube 304 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the slider 303. The bottom of the circular tube 304 passes through the limiting plate 300 and extends to the outside of the limiting plate 300. A ball bearing 305 is embedded at the bottom of the circular tube 304. The surface of the ball bearing 305 is in rolling contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove. The ball bearing 305 increases the sliding convenience between the limiting plate 300 and the limiting groove during use, reduces frictional resistance, and improves the ease of use of this component. A damping rod 307 is fixedly installed at the top of the slider 303. The top of the damping rod 307 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the cavity. A return spring 306 is arranged around the surface of the damping rod 307. The top of the return spring 306 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the cavity, and the bottom of the return spring 306 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 303. The damping rod 307 and the return spring 306 can perform a reset buffering operation on the rotating rod 301 and the pressure roller 207 on the limiting plate 300 during use, so that the pressure roller 207 contacts the surface of the beef.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, a support component 4 is provided at the bottom of the base 1. The support component 4 includes support rings 400 fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the base 1. The two support rings 400 are fixedly connected by a positioning plate 401. The support component 4 is provided to facilitate positioning during use, thereby facilitating subsequent placement and improving the placement stability of the component.
[0034] Working principle: The control motor 202 operates, which drives the turntable 203 to rotate. This causes the connecting rod 204 on the turntable 203 to move the push rod 205, facilitating its movement during use. Simultaneously, the pressure roller 207 rolls inside the housing 208. The tumbling component 2 tumbles the beef inside the housing 208 during use, using mechanical force to lengthen the muscle segments and break down connective tissues such as the muscle membrane, ultimately softening the meat and reducing the need for manual operation, thus facilitating subsequent use. The support and protection component 3 provides protection during use. With the help of the return spring 306 and damping rod 307, it achieves a convenient protective effect. When processing beef of different thicknesses, the pressure roller 207 can be made to fit the surface of the beef according to its thickness, so that the tenderizing process of the device will not be affected during subsequent use.
[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
