Water removal device for beef processing

Abstract

This utility model provides a dehydration device for beef processing, belonging to the field of beef processing technology. It includes a dehydration tank, a connecting plate installed at the bottom of the tank, a collecting base plate installed at the bottom of the connecting plate, a feed inlet at the top of the tank, a placement basket inside the tank, a discharge outlet at the bottom of the basket, and a telescopic component at the top of the collecting base plate for controlling the opening and closing of the discharge outlet. This utility model uses a drive component to rotate the placement basket at high speed, using centrifugal force to throw water out of the basket. The water falls into the dehydration tank through the basket's holes. During this process, an electric push rod pushes a truncated cone upwards, causing an annular groove to support the bottom of the basket, ensuring the discharge outlet is closed and preventing beef from falling during rotation. After dehydration is complete, the drive component stops, the electric push rod retracts, causing the truncated cone to descend. The bottom of the basket loses support, and under gravity, the beef falls through the discharge outlet into the collecting base plate for collection.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of beef processing technology, specifically relating to a dehydration device for beef processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the current field of beef processing technology, the cooking of beef mainly involves continuously boiling beef chunks or slices in boiling water. The high temperature denatures and coagulates the proteins in the beef, thereby achieving the purpose of cooking. After cooking, the water on the outer surface of the beef needs to be drained, which requires the use of beef dehydration equipment.

[0003] After the dehydration process is completed, the operator usually needs to manually remove the beef from the equipment. However, the beef tends to accumulate at the bottom of the equipment or be pressed down to the lower layers. Beef at the bottom is difficult to remove effectively, requiring the operator to bend over and reach into the equipment to search and clean it. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is that the existing technology relies on manual material spreading, which is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and prone to material accumulation and uneven thickness. Therefore, we propose a dehydration device for beef processing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution: A dehydration device for beef processing includes a dehydration bucket, a connecting plate installed at the bottom of the dehydration bucket, a collection base plate installed at the bottom of the connecting plate, a feed inlet at the top of the dehydration bucket, a placement basket inside the dehydration bucket, a discharge outlet at the bottom of the placement basket, and a telescopic component at the top of the collection base plate for controlling the opening and closing of the discharge outlet. The telescopic assembly includes: a connecting box installed on the top of the collecting base plate; an electric push rod installed inside the connecting box; and a truncated cone installed on the telescopic end of the electric push rod; the outer surface of the truncated cone has an annular groove, which corresponds to the bottom of the placement basket; the telescopic end of the electric push rod passes through the connecting box; a connecting pipe is installed inside the placement basket; and a drive assembly is installed on the outer surface of the connecting pipe.

[0006] Preferably, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting pipe, and a fixing rod is fixedly connected between the connecting plate and the placement basket. The driving assembly includes: a motor installed at the top of the water removal tank; a first bevel gear installed at the output end of the motor; and a second bevel gear meshing with one side of the first bevel gear; the second bevel gear is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting pipe.

[0007] Preferably, a guide plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water bucket, and a connection port is opened at the bottom of the guide plate, and the basket is rotatably connected to the connection port.

[0008] Preferably, in addition to the water tank having a water outlet valve pipe fixedly connected to its outer surface, the water tank is located at the guide arc plate.

[0009] Preferably, a drying assembly is provided at the top of the dewatering tank. The drying assembly includes: a mounting frame installed at the top of the dewatering tank; a mounting box installed at the top of the mounting frame; and a drive fan and a heating tube installed inside the mounting box. The drive fan is located above the heating tube, and one end of the connecting pipe passes through the mounting box. An air outlet is provided on the outer surface of the connecting pipe.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting groove is provided at the top of the frustum, and the end of the connecting pipe away from the mounting box is rotatably connected to the connecting groove.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting cover is movably connected to the top of the feed inlet, a support frame is installed at the bottom of the collecting base plate, and a self-locking universal wheel is installed at the bottom of the support frame.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The basket is driven by a motor to rotate at high speed, and centrifugal force is used to quickly throw out a large amount of free water from the beef, resulting in high dehydration efficiency. Through the unique design of the truncated cone and annular groove, the discharge port can be reliably sealed during the dehydration process to prevent the beef from falling off during high-speed rotation, ensuring the continuity and stability of the production process. After dehydration, the truncated cone is separated from the discharge port by an electric push rod for easy material removal.

[0013] 2. After centrifugal dehydration, the beef is dried a second time by hot air to remove the residual moisture on the outer surface. This effectively reduces the final moisture content of the beef, improves product quality and shelf life. The hot air is blown out evenly through the hollow connecting pipe and the air outlet on its outer surface, directly acting on the beef. This method has high heating efficiency and relatively concentrated energy consumption. Attached Figure Description

[0016] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below. Example 1:

[0018] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 This is an embodiment of the present utility model, which provides a dehydration device for beef processing, including a dehydration bucket 1, a connecting plate 11 installed at the bottom of the dehydration bucket 1, a collecting bottom plate 2 installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 11, a feed inlet at the top of the dehydration bucket 1, a placement basket 3 inside the dehydration bucket 1, a discharge port 31 at the bottom of the placement basket 3, and a telescopic component 4 for controlling the opening and closing of the discharge port 31 at the top of the collecting bottom plate 2. Telescopic assembly 4 includes: a connecting box 41 installed at the top of the collecting base plate 2; an electric push rod 42 installed inside the connecting box 41; and a truncated cone 43 installed at the telescopic end of the electric push rod 42. The outer surface of the truncated cone 43 has an annular groove 431, which corresponds to the bottom of the placement basket 3. When the truncated cone 43 rises, the annular groove 431 contacts the bottom of the placement basket 3, restricting the beef from falling. When the truncated cone 43 descends, the discharge port 31 opens, and the beef falls by gravity. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 42 passes through the connecting box 41. A connecting pipe 5 is installed inside the placement basket 3, and a drive assembly 6 is installed on the outer surface of the connecting pipe 5. The annular groove 431 is for... The rotation of the basket 3 provides guidance. The moist beef is put into the basket 3, and the drive component 6 drives the basket 3 to rotate at high speed. Centrifugal force is used to throw the water out of the basket 3. The water falls from the basket hole of the basket 3 into the dewatering tank 1. During this process, the electric push rod 42 pushes the truncated cone 43 to rise, so that the annular groove 431 supports the bottom of the basket 3, ensuring that the discharge port 31 is in a closed state to prevent the beef from falling during rotation. After the dewatering is completed, the drive component 6 stops, the electric push rod 42 retracts and drives the truncated cone 43 to fall. The bottom of the basket 3 loses support, and under the action of gravity, the beef falls through the discharge port 31 into the collection base plate 2 to complete the collection.

[0019] A connecting plate 51 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting pipe 5. A fixing rod 511 is fixedly connected between the connecting plate 51 and the placement basket 3. The driving assembly 6 includes: a motor 61 installed at the top of the dewatering tank 1; a first bevel gear 62 installed at the output end of the motor 61; and a second bevel gear 63 meshing with one side of the first bevel gear 62. The second bevel gear 63 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting pipe 5. When the motor 61 is powered on, it drives the first bevel gear 62 to rotate. The first bevel gear 62 drives the second bevel gear 63, which meshes with it perpendicularly, to rotate. The second bevel gear 63 drives the connecting pipe 5 to rotate at high speed. Through the connecting plate 51 and the fixing rod 511, the connecting pipe 5 transmits torque to the placement basket 3, so that the connecting pipe 5 rotates synchronously as a whole. Under the action of centrifugal force, the water in the beef is thrown out of the basket hole, thus achieving dewatering treatment.

[0020] A guide plate 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dewatering tank 1. A connection port 121 is opened at the bottom of the guide plate 12. The placement basket 3 is rotatably connected to the connection port 121. The guide plate 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dewatering tank 1 to receive water thrown out from the placement basket 3 and to isolate the liquid from the collection area below. The connection port 121 is opened at the center of the bottom of the guide plate 12 as a rotation support channel for the placement basket 3.

[0021] A water outlet valve pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the water tank 1. The water tank 1 is set at the flow guide arc plate 12, and the position of the water outlet valve pipe 13 corresponds to the area of ​​the flow guide arc plate 12, which is used to discharge the accumulated water from the water tank 1.

[0022] Push the equipment to the designated workstation using the self-locking casters 211, open the top connecting cover 14 to expose the feed inlet, and prepare for feeding. During the feeding process, start the motor 61. The motor 61 drives the first bevel gear 62 to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 63 to rotate, thereby rotating the connecting pipe 5 and the placement basket 3. This allows the placement basket 3 to rotate slowly, facilitating the even placement of beef through the feed inlet inside the basket 3. Close the connecting cover 14, and the motor 61 drives the placement basket 3 to rotate at a high speed. Under the action of centrifugal force, the free water in the beef is thrown out of the basket holes. During this process, the electric push rod... 42 pushes the truncated cone 43 upward, and the annular groove 431 on the outer surface of the truncated cone 43 contacts the bottom of the placement basket 3 to form a support. The discharge port 31 is closed to prevent the beef from falling during rotation. The water that is thrown out slides down the barrel wall to the top of the guide arc plate 12. The water flows through the water outlet valve pipe 13 to facilitate discharge outside the water tank 1. After drying, the electric push rod 42 retracts, driving the truncated cone 43 to descend as a whole, so that the truncated cone 43 separates from the bottom of the placement basket 3. The annular groove 431 loses its supporting function, the discharge port 31 opens, and the beef slides down the inclined surface of the truncated cone 43 under the action of gravity and falls into the collection bottom plate 2 below, completing the collection. Example 2:

[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 - Figure 5 This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, but differs in that a drying component 7 is provided at the top of the dehydration tank 1. The drying component 7 includes: a mounting frame 71 installed at the top of the dehydration tank 1; a mounting box 72 installed at the top of the mounting frame 71; and a drive fan 73 and a heating tube 74 installed inside the mounting box 72. The drive fan 73 is located above the heating tube 74, and one end of the connecting pipe 5 passes through the mounting box 72. An air outlet 52 is opened on the outer surface of the connecting pipe 5. After centrifugal dehydration is completed, the motor 61 is turned off, and the drive fan 73 and the heating tube 74 are started. Under the action of the drive fan 73, the hot air heated by the heating tube 74 in the mounting box 72 enters the connecting pipe 5 and is sprayed out from the air outlet 52 on the outer surface of the heating tube 74, directly blowing on the outer surface of the beef placed in the basket 3. The hot air facilitates the evaporation of residual moisture on the outer surface of the beef, making the beef drier.

[0024] The top of the truncated cone 43 is provided with a connecting groove 432. The end of the connecting pipe 5 away from the mounting box 72 is rotatably connected to the connecting groove 432. When the electric push rod 42 pushes the truncated cone 43 to rise, the connecting groove 432 at the top of the truncated cone 43 and the end of the connecting pipe 5 form a stable fit. The truncated cone 43 provides bottom support and axial positioning for the connecting pipe 5.

[0025] A connecting cover 14 is movably connected to the top of the feed inlet, and a support frame 21 is installed at the bottom of the collecting base plate 2. A self-locking caster wheel 211 is installed at the bottom of the support frame 21. Closing the connecting cover 14 helps prevent water droplets from spraying out of the feed inlet during high-speed rotation. The self-locking caster wheel 211 makes it easy to push the equipment to different workstations such as the cleaning area, feeding area, and packaging area, thereby improving the flexibility of the production line layout.

[0026] After centrifugal dehydration is completed, motor 61 stops, basket 3 gradually stops rotating, heating tube 74 starts heating air, drive fan 73 starts to press hot air into the inside of connecting pipe 5, hot air flows along the channel of connecting pipe 5 and is sprayed out from the air outlet 52 opened on the outer surface of connecting pipe 5. The hot air blows directly on the outer surface of beef, evaporates residual moisture, further reduces moisture content and improves drying effect.
