Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of thawing storage technology, and relates to an automatic humidification and temperature control thawing storage, particularly an automatic humidification and temperature control thawing storage. Background Technology

[0002] In modern society, with the continuous development of technology, the application of frozen storage and transportation of food is becoming more and more frequent. As a result, the demand for thawing frozen food is increasing. However, traditional methods such as water thawing, natural thawing, and microwave thawing are time-consuming and can easily lead to uneven thawing, as well as excessive degradation of the quality of thawed food.

[0003] The purpose of thawing food is to raise its temperature to the necessary range and ensure that it is restored to its original properties as completely as possible. Thawing meat is the process of the ice crystals in frozen meat melting and absorbing heat. During thawing, the rise in food temperature accelerates the physicochemical and biochemical reactions, while the seepage of juices creates a favorable environment for microbial activity. Therefore, the thawing process must be carried out with care and attention.

[0004] A search revealed a frozen meat preservation and thawing storage facility disclosed in Chinese patent literature [Application No.: CN201220552709.9; Publication No.: CN202842241U]. This facility includes a cold storage body; several thawing racks, temperature sensors, and humidity sensors are installed inside the cold storage; an air duct is installed inside the cold storage, forming an air duct interlayer with one side wall of the cold storage; several air duct openings are provided on the air duct; at least one blower is installed on the top of the cold storage near the air duct opening, and a refrigeration evaporator is installed on the air outlet side of the blower; an air duct constriction is provided on the opposite side of the air duct inside the cold storage, and an exhaust fan is installed above the air duct constriction, with the air inlet of the exhaust fan corresponding to the air duct constriction; a heating steam pipe is installed on the top of the thawing storage, and several humid hot steam nozzles are provided on the heating steam pipe.

[0005] Although the thawing chamber disclosed in this patent achieves moisturizing and fresh thawing of frozen meat through a humidification device and a temperature monitoring and control system, the fixed position of the thawing rack inside the thawing chamber results in different thawing efficiencies for the frozen products inside. Furthermore, the juices that seep out after the frozen meat is thawed cannot be effectively treated, which can easily affect the quality of the thawed food. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing an automatic humidification and temperature control thawing chamber. The technical problem this invention aims to solve is: how to ensure the uniformity of thawing of frozen products inside the thawing chamber and prevent juices from affecting the quality of the frozen products.

[0007] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] An automatic humidification and temperature control defrosting chamber includes a chamber base, a chamber panel fixedly connected to the four sides of the surface of the chamber base, and a chamber door opened on one side of the chamber panel. Fixed pipes are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the chamber panel, and a spray head is fixedly installed at the end of the fixed pipe away from the chamber panel. A circulating defrosting unit is arranged between the two fixed pipes.

[0009] The circulating defrosting unit includes two rotating rods, both of which rotate above the storage base, and one of the rotating rods is driven by a drive motor.

[0010] Both rotating rods are fixedly connected to meshing wheels on their outer walls. The outer walls of the meshing wheels are fitted with meshing bands. Multiple material support frames are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the meshing bands. The multiple material support frames are distributed at equal intervals.

[0011] The inner walls on both sides of the storage panel are fixedly connected to a fixing frame, and a fan is fixedly installed inside the fixing frame, with the fan located above the spray head.

[0012] Using the above structure, the thawing chamber is opened through the door, and the frozen products to be thawed are placed sequentially on the surface of the pallet rack. After the frozen products are in place inside the thawing chamber, the door is closed to ensure internal airtightness and prevent external contamination. During thawing, humidifying water is connected through a fixed pipe. Under the action of spray nozzles, the humidifying water is sprayed upwards on both sides of the chamber. Simultaneously, a fan is installed above the spray nozzles. By activating the fan, the humidifying water is guided upwards for humidification, ensuring effective dispersion of the humidifying water inside the thawing chamber. To ensure uniform thawing of frozen products and the spray nozzles on both sides, the drive motor rotates the rotating rod, which in turn causes the meshing wheel to rotate the meshing belt. This meshing belt then causes multiple material racks fixed to the outer wall to rotate on the surface of the storage base, achieving the effect of moving the frozen products within the storage room. This facilitates uniform thawing of the frozen products. Furthermore, by setting up water collection tanks below the spray nozzles, the exudate from the thawing of frozen products on the surface of the material racks is collected to both sides through the water collection tanks. This effectively collects the exudate within the thawing storage room, preventing the juice from affecting the internal environment of the thawing storage room and ensuring the thawing quality of the frozen products.

[0013] A fixed column is fixedly connected to the surface of the storage base. The fixed column is located between two meshing wheels, and a humidity sensing unit is fixedly installed at the top of the fixed column.

[0014] With the above structure and the support of the fixed column, the humidity sensing unit can be stably installed. Specifically, the model of the humidity sensing unit is NT-WM-F. By setting the humidity sensing unit, it can monitor the humidity of the frozen products on the surface of the outer material rack between the two meshing wheels, which facilitates real-time monitoring of the frozen products and ensures the scientific nature of thawing.

[0015] The drive motor is fixedly installed at the inner bottom of the storage base, and the storage base has an empty slot inside that can accommodate the drive motor.

[0016] The bottom end of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor.

[0017] With the above structure, the drive motor enables the rotating rod to drive the meshing wheel to rotate stably, thus realizing the transmission drive between the meshing wheel and the meshing belt. Furthermore, by installing the drive motor inside the storage base, the internal space of the storage base is rationally utilized, ensuring the driving effect of the meshing wheel.

[0018] The material support frame is arranged in an inverted "L" shape, and the material support frame is located on one side of the fan, with the bottom end of the material support frame slidably connected to the surface of the storage base.

[0019] With the above structure, the inverted "L" shape of the tray makes it easy for users to place frozen products on the surface of the tray for thawing. Moreover, the sliding action of the tray on the surface of the storage base enables the tray to move precisely on the surface of the storage base driven by the meshing belt, ensuring the accuracy of the tray's movement and facilitating the uniform and efficient thawing of frozen products within the storage area.

[0020] Water collection troughs are provided on both sides of the reservoir base, and the water collection troughs are located below the spray head;

[0021] Both water collection tanks have drain pipes connected to one side of their bottom.

[0022] With the above structure, the water collection trough is set below the spray head, allowing it to collect the humidifying water generated by the spray head. Furthermore, the water collection trough is positioned on both sides of the thawing base, causing the seepage liquid from the thawing of frozen products on the surface of the pallet rack to be collected on both sides through the water collection trough. This achieves effective collection of seepage liquid within the thawing trough, preventing the liquid from affecting the internal environment of the thawing trough and ensuring the thawing quality of the frozen products. Moreover, the drainage pipe allows for efficient discharge of the liquid inside the water collection trough, facilitating the user's handling of the collected liquid.

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, the automatic humidification and temperature control thawing chamber of this invention has the following advantages:

[0024] 1. In this utility model, by setting a fan above the spray head, the fan guides the humidifying water upward on both sides of the thawing chamber, ensuring the dispersion effect of the humidifying water inside the thawing chamber and ensuring the uniformity of contact between the humidifying water and the frozen products. Moreover, by setting a water collection tank below the spray head, it is convenient to collect the thawing water and exudate in a timely manner, avoiding the impact of microorganisms on the thawing quality of the frozen products.

[0025] 2. In this utility model, by setting a circulating thawing unit between the fixed pipes on both sides, the circulating thawing unit can drive multiple material racks to rotate on the surface of the storage base through the rotation of the meshing belt, realizing the movement effect of frozen products in the storage, which facilitates the uniform thawing of frozen products, avoids the problem of thawing dead corners, and helps to improve thawing efficiency. Moreover, the structure is simple and makes reasonable use of the storage space. Furthermore, by setting a humidity sensing unit between the two meshing wheels, it is easy to realize real-time monitoring of frozen products and ensure the scientific nature of thawing.

[0032] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0033] Example

[0034] like Figures 1-4 As shown;

[0035] An automatic humidified and temperature-controlled thawing chamber includes a base 1, a panel 2 fixedly connected to the perimeter of the base 1, a door on one side of the panel 2, fixed pipes 3, spray heads 4, a fixing frame 5, a fan 6, a rotating rod 7, a drive motor 8, a meshing wheel 9, a meshing belt 10, a material support frame 11, a fixing column 12, a humidity sensing unit 13, a water collection tank 14, and a drain pipe 15. Fixed pipes 3 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the panel 2, and spray heads 4 are fixedly installed at the ends of the fixed pipes 3 away from the panel 2. The fixed pipes 3 facilitate the flow of humidifying water to spray humidify the interior of the thawing chamber. The spray heads 4 also ensure effective dispersion of the humidifying water within the chamber. Furthermore, to ensure the thawing of frozen products within the thawing chamber… To ensure uniformity, a circulating defrosting unit is provided between the two fixed tubes 3. Specifically, the circulating defrosting unit includes two rotating rods 7, both of which rotate above the storage base 1. One of the rotating rods 7 is driven by a drive motor 8. Specifically, the output end of the drive motor 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating rod 7. The drive motor 8 is fixedly installed at the inner bottom of the storage base 1, and the storage base 1 has a slot inside that can accommodate the drive motor 8. By setting the drive motor 8, the rotating rod 7 drives the meshing wheel 9 to rotate stably, realizing the transmission drive between the meshing wheel 9 and the meshing belt 10. Furthermore, by installing the drive motor 8 inside the storage base 1, the internal space of the storage base 1 is rationally utilized, ensuring the driving effect of the meshing wheel 9.

[0036] Furthermore, meshing wheels 9 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both rotating rods 7. A meshing belt 10 is fitted onto the outer wall of the meshing wheels 9, and multiple material support frames 11 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the meshing belt 10. These material support frames 11 are equidistantly distributed and have an inverted "L" shape. The material support frames 11 are located on one side of the fan 6, and their bottom ends are slidably connected to the surface of the storage base 1. The inverted "L" shape of the material support frames 11 facilitates the placement of frozen products on the surface of the material support frames 11 for thawing. Moreover, the sliding action of the material support frames 11 on the surface of the storage base 1 enables precise movement of the material support frames 11 under the drive of the meshing belt 10, ensuring accurate movement of the material support frames 11. The storage rack 11 facilitates the movement of frozen products within the storage room for uniform and efficient thawing. Simultaneously, to achieve automatic temperature-controlled thawing, a fixed column 12 is fixedly connected to the surface of the storage base 1. The fixed column 12 is located between two meshing wheels 9, and a humidity sensing unit 13 is fixedly installed at the top of the fixed column 12. Under the action of the fixed column 12, the humidity sensing unit 13 can be stably installed. Specifically, the humidity sensing unit 13 is model NT-WM-F. Through the setting of the humidity sensing unit 13, the humidity sensing unit 13 can monitor the humidity of the frozen products on the surface of the outer storage rack 11 between the two meshing wheels 9, facilitating real-time monitoring of the frozen products and ensuring the scientific nature of the thawing process.

[0037] Both sides of the inner wall of the storage plate 2 are fixedly connected to the fixing frame 5, and the fixing frame 5 is fixedly installed with the fan 6. The fan 6 is located above the spray head 4. At the same time, water collection tanks 14 are opened on both sides of the storage base 1. The water collection tanks 14 are located below the spray head 4. By setting the water collection tanks 14 below the spray head 4, the water collection tanks 14 can collect the humidifying water generated by the spray head 4. Moreover, with the water collection tanks 14 set on both sides of the storage base 1, the seepage liquid from the thawing of frozen products on the surface of the material rack 11 is collected on both sides through the water collection tanks 14, realizing the effective collection of seepage liquid in the thawing storage, avoiding the juice from affecting the internal environment of the thawing storage, and ensuring the thawing quality of frozen products. Drain pipes 15 are connected to one side of the bottom of the two water collection tanks 14. By setting the drain pipes 15, the juice inside the water collection tanks 14 can be discharged efficiently, which is convenient for users to handle the juice collected in the water collection tanks 14.

[0038] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the thawing chamber is opened through the door, and the frozen products to be thawed are placed sequentially on the surface of the material rack 11. After the frozen products are in place inside the thawing chamber, the door is closed to ensure internal sealing and prevent external contamination. During thawing, humidifying water is connected through the fixed pipe 3. Under the action of the spray head 4, the humidifying water is sprayed upwards on both sides of the chamber. At the same time, a fan 6 is installed above the spray head 4. By starting the fan 6, the humidifying water is guided upwards for humidification, ensuring the dispersion effect of the humidifying water inside the thawing chamber. To ensure the frozen products are well humidified, the spray head is adjusted accordingly. The uniformity of thawing by the mist nozzle 4 is achieved by driving the drive motor 8 to rotate the rotating rod 7, which in turn causes the meshing wheel 9 to rotate the meshing belt 10. This causes the meshing belt 10 to rotate multiple material racks 11 fixed to the outer wall on the surface of the storage base 1, thus realizing the movement of frozen products within the storage room and facilitating uniform thawing. Furthermore, by setting a water collection tank 14 below the mist nozzle 4, the seepage liquid from the thawing of frozen products on the surface of the material racks 11 is collected to both sides through the water collection tank 14, achieving effective collection of seepage liquid within the thawing storage room. This prevents the liquid from affecting the internal environment of the thawing storage room and ensures the thawing quality of the frozen products. This completes the working principle of the automatic humidification and temperature control thawing storage room.
