Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically a multi-layer rotary smoking chamber. Background Technology
[0002] A smoking chamber is a specialized piece of equipment used for smoking food. It generates smoke by burning wood, sawdust, or other smoking materials, and then directs the smoke into the chamber. The components in the smoke (such as phenols, aldehydes, and acids) smoke meat, fish, bean products, and other ingredients placed inside. This process not only imparts a unique smoky flavor and color to the food but also extends its shelf life through the antibacterial and drying properties of the smoke. It is commonly used in traditional food processing and specialty food production.
[0003] Currently, during the smoking process, the smoke airflow flows out through a single outlet, making it difficult for the smoke airflow to spread evenly.

A driving device for driving the rotating rods 3 to rotate is disposed at the top of the chamber body 1. A flow guiding mechanism disposed within the chamber body 1 includes a flow guiding pipe 5 and multiple diversion pipes 6. The bottom end of the flow guiding pipe 5 is connected to the smoking tube 2. The multiple diversion pipes 6 are arrayed and connected to the surface of the flow guiding pipe 5. The smoke outlets of the multiple diversion pipes 6 face each layer of hanging racks 4. The diversion pipes 6 are connected to each other via adjusting devices.
[0023] Specifically, the drive device includes a drive gear 7 and a driven gear 8. A rotating assembly is provided on the top of the housing 1. Both the drive gear 7 and the driven gear 8 are provided on the surface of the rotating assembly. The number of driven gears 8 is matched with the number of rotating rods 3. Multiple driven gears 8 mesh around the drive gear 7. The top of each rotating rod 3 is fixedly connected to each driven gear 8. A drive motor is provided on the surface of the drive gear 7.
[0024] In this implementation scheme, the drive motor is controlled to drive the output shaft of the drive motor to drive the active gear 7 to rotate. The active gear 7 simultaneously drives multiple driven gears 8 to rotate. The driven gears 8 drive each rotating rod 3 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating rod 3 to drive the hanging rack 4 on the surface to rotate, so that the smoke comes into uniform contact with each layer of food.
[0025] Specifically, the rotating assembly includes a turntable 9, a rotating gear 10, and a rotating gear ring 11. The turntable 9 is inserted into the top of the chamber 1 via a sealed bearing. The driving gear 7 and the driven gear 8 are both located inside the turntable 9. The rotating rod 3 passes through the turntable 9 and is connected to the driven gear 8. The top end of the guide pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the center of the turntable 9, and the bottom end of the guide pipe 5 is connected to the smoke pipe 2 via a sealed bearing. The rotating gear ring 11 is fixedly fitted onto the surface of the turntable 9. The rotating gear 10 is located on the top of the chamber 1 via a rotating motor, and the rotating gear 10 meshes with the rotating gear ring 11.
[0026] In this implementation scheme, the control motor starts, and the motor drives the turntable 9 to rotate through the rotating gear 10 and the rotating gear 10. The turntable 9 drives multiple rotating rods 3 to rotate around the guide pipe 5, so that each rotating rod 3 rotates to the position of the compartment door of the compartment body 1, which facilitates the hanging and retrieval of food on each rotating rod 3. At the same time, the turntable 9 can drive the guide pipe 5 to rotate under the action of the sealed bearing, which facilitates the adjustment of the diversion pipe 6 facing away from the compartment door.
[0027] Specifically, the adjustment device includes a bellows 12, a fixed base 13, a throttle 14, and a snap-fit component. One end of the bellows 12 is fixedly connected to the diverter 6, and the other end of the bellows 12 is fixedly connected to the flow port of the guide pipe 5. The fixed base 13 is fixedly installed on the surface of the guide pipe 5. The throttle 14 passes through the fixed base 13 and is fixedly connected to the diverter 6. The snap-fit component is installed inside the throttle 14 and is used to snap-fit and fix the throttle 14.
[0028] In this embodiment, by holding the handle 14, the handle 14 is rotated within the fixed base 13. At the same time, the handle 14 drives the diversion tube 6 to adjust its angle upward or downward according to the position of the food hanging, and at the same time drives the corrugated tube 12 to bend. This allows for adjustment of the angle of the diversion tube 6, and the smoking direction can be flexibly adjusted according to the position and stacking density of the food, avoiding insufficient or excessive smoking in certain areas.
[0029] Specifically, the snap-fit component includes a plug rod 15 and a return spring 16. One end of the plug rod 15 is set as a hemispherical shape, and the other end of the plug rod 15 is inserted into the throttle 14 through a placement groove. The inner side wall of the fixing seat 13 is provided with multiple slots that are adapted to be inserted into one end of the plug rod 15. The return spring 16 is set in the placement groove.
[0030] In this embodiment, the insertion rod 15 is fitted into a slot in the fixing base 13, thereby fixing the throttle 14 and fixing the angle of the diverter 6. When the throttle 14 is rotated, the throttle 14 causes the hemispherical part of one end of the insertion rod 15 to press against the slot, causing the insertion rod 15 to retract into the placement slot. At the same time, the return spring 16 is compressed elastically. After adjustment, the insertion rod 15 is connected to another slot. Under the elastic reset of the return spring 16, the insertion rod 15 is connected to another slot, fixing the throttle 14.
[0031] Specifically, a sealing plate 17 is provided inside the diversion pipe 6. The sealing plate 17 is adapted to the diversion pipe 6. A sealing rod 18 is inserted into the center of the diversion pipe 6. The sealing plate 17 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the sealing rod 18. A rubber ring is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the sealing plate 17.
[0032] In this embodiment, the sealing rod 18 is rotated simultaneously, which drives the sealing plate 17 to rotate, so that the sealing plate 17 seals the diversion pipe 6. The rubber ring on the sealing plate 17 fits tightly with the diversion pipe 6, improving the sealing performance, thereby enabling the diversion pipe 6 to be switched on or off as needed.
[0033] Specifically, the mounting bracket 4 is adapted to be connected to the surface of the rotating rod 3. The surface of the mounting bracket 4 is provided with a cam clip 19 through the hinge seat 20. The cam part of the cam clip 19 passes through the mounting bracket 4 and fits tightly with the rotating rod 3.
[0034] In this embodiment, by moving the handle of the cam latch 19, the cam latch 19 is rotated around the hinge seat 20, causing the cam part of the cam latch 19 to disengage from the rotating rod 3, thereby unlocking the hanging frame 4. This allows adjustment of the spacing between the hanging frames 4 and the number of hanging frames 4. Then, the cam latch 19 is reversed, causing the cam part of the cam latch 19 to press against the surface of the rotating rod 3 and fit tightly against the rotating rod 3, thus fixing the hanging frame 4.
[0035] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, the food to be smoked is hung on each rack 4. Smoke is generated by burning wood, sawdust, and other smoking materials. The smoke airflow then enters the guide pipe 5 through the smoke pipe 2. The guide pipe 5 then pours the smoke airflow into each diversion pipe 6. The diversion pipe 6 guides the smoke airflow to the food hanging on each rack 4. At the same time, the drive motor is controlled to drive the drive motor output shaft to drive the drive gear 7 to rotate. The drive gear 7 simultaneously drives multiple driven gears 8 to rotate. The driven gears 8 drive each rotating rod 3 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating rod 3 to drive the rack 4 on which the food is hung to rotate, so that the smoke comes into uniform contact with each layer of food.
