Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beef steaming technology, specifically to a heatable reaction vessel for steaming beef jerky with a dynamic stirring mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Beef jerky, a traditional snack, is a type of snack made primarily from beef through multiple processes such as marinating, steaming, sun-drying (or baking), and seasoning. It is characterized by its firm texture, rich flavor, and long shelf life, and is a popular traditional snack. The steaming process has a significant impact on its quality.

[0003] Traditional beef jerky cooking reactors have many limitations. The stirring mechanism is mostly fixed, making it difficult to adapt to the dynamic needs of different stages in the beef jerky cooking process (such as the initial material addition and mixing, the middle stage of continuous cooking for flavoring, and the later stage of reducing the sauce and setting the shape). This can easily lead to uneven cooking and inconsistent flavoring, affecting the taste and quality. The fixed angle of the reactor makes the feeding and discharging operations inconvenient, and the lack of efficient temperature monitoring and control makes it difficult to accurately control the cooking environment, which restricts the improvement of production efficiency and product quality stability. Therefore, we need to upgrade and transform the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a heated reaction vessel for cooking beef jerky with a dynamic stirring mechanism, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0026] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 5, this embodiment provides a heatable reaction vessel for cooking beef jerky with a dynamic stirring mechanism. It includes a main body 1, a support frame 2 inside the main body 1, and a heatable reaction vessel 3 connected to the support frame 2 via a connecting shaft 5. The top of the heatable reaction vessel 3 is equipped with a protective cover 14, on which a motor 20, a temperature sensor 17, and a feeding pipe 16 are mounted. The output end of the motor 20 is connected to a connecting rod 21 extending into the heatable reaction vessel 3. The connecting rod 21 is equipped with stirring blades 23. The support frame 2 has a fixed structure on one side that is compatible with the heatable reactor 3, and the heatable reactor 3 has an insulated inner barrel 12 inside. The insulated inner barrel 12 and the lower part of the heatable reactor 3 are connected to the discharge pipe 13. The support frame 2 is equipped with a worm wheel 7, a worm 9 and a hand crank 10. The worm wheel 7 is compatible with the outside of the heatable reactor 3. The worm 9 meshes with the worm wheel 7. The hand crank 10 is connected to the worm 9. The worm 9 has extension frames 8 at both ends. The hand crank 10 can drive the heatable reactor 3 to rotate around the connecting shaft 5 when rotated.

[0028] Preferably, the protective cover 14 and the heatable reactor 3 are detachably connected by the locking buckle 15 and the handle 19, which facilitates the cleaning of the inside of the heatable reactor 3 and the maintenance of its components, improving the flexibility and convenience of the device. The heatable reactor 3 is equipped with a pressure relief valve 11 to balance the pressure inside the heatable reactor 3, ensure the safety of the cooking process, and avoid safety accidents. The temperature sensor 17 is electrically connected to the controller 18 on the protective cover 14, which can monitor and provide feedback on the temperature data inside the heatable reactor 3 in real time, and assist in the control of the cooking process.

[0029] Preferably, the stirring blade 23 is an adjustable structure, and its spacing and angle on the connecting rod 21 can be adjusted by the controller 18 or by manual operation to optimize the stirring effect, avoid uneven heating of the beef during the steaming process, and ensure the taste of the beef. The support frame 2 is equipped with a fixing ring 4 and a locking rod 6. When the heatable reactor 3 is flipped to the target angle, the locking rod 6 is inserted into the fixing ring 4 and the corresponding positioning hole of the heatable reactor to fix the angle of the heatable reactor 3. The heat-insulating inner barrel 12 adopts a double-layer heat insulation structure and is filled with heat-insulating material to effectively reduce the heat loss inside the heatable reactor 3 and maintain the stability of the steaming temperature.

[0030] Preferably, the motor 20 is a speed-regulating motor, and the speed can be adjusted by the controller 18 to achieve different stirring rates of the stirring blade 23, which can be adapted to the different cooking stages of beef jerky. The inner wall of the heatable reaction vessel 3 is equipped with an anti-stick coating made of food-grade Teflon, which facilitates material pouring and equipment cleaning, and reduces the risk of beef jerky residue.

[0031] The working principle and process of this utility model are as follows: During use, the control motor 20 starts, driving the stirring blade 23 to rotate via the connecting rod 21, achieving basic stirring. When the stirring angle needs to be adjusted, the hand crank 10 is turned, causing the worm gear 9 to drive the worm wheel 7 to rotate, thereby causing the heatable reactor 3 to rotate around the connecting shaft 5, changing the relative angle between the material inside the heatable reactor and the stirring blade 23 to adapt to different cooking stages. Simultaneously, the speed of the motor 20 can be adjusted via the controller 18 according to the cooking status of the beef jerky, changing the rotation speed of the stirring blade 23 to achieve dynamic stirring, promoting uniform heating and flavor absorption of the material. Beef jerky raw materials and ingredients are added to the heatable reactor 3, and the feeding pipe 16 is closed. The heatable reactor 3 undergoes heating and cooking. The temperature sensor 17 monitors the temperature inside the heatable reactor 3 in real time and feeds it back to the controller 18 for precise temperature control. The pressure relief valve 11 ensures stable pressure inside the heatable reactor 3, avoiding the risk of overpressure. The insulated inner tank 12 reduces heat loss and maintains a stable cooking environment. After cooking is complete, turn the hand crank 10 to adjust the angle of the heatable reactor 3 to a convenient discharge position, and open the discharge pipe 13 valve to unload the material. During routine maintenance, the protective cover 14, feeding pipe 16, and other components can be easily disassembled and installed using the locking buckle 15, handle 19, and other structures to clean and inspect the interior of the heatable reactor 3 and the stirring mechanism.
