A draining component of a marine tunnel-type high-speed freezing apparatus

Abstract

The application discloses a draining component of a tunnel type quick-freezing device for a ship, which is arranged above a deck and comprises a vibrating draining mechanism and an inclination adjusting mechanism. The inclination adjusting mechanism is adapted to adjust the inclination of the top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism so as to control the residence time of the fishery products to be quickly frozen on the vibrating draining mechanism. The top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism is arranged to be inclined, so that the fishery products can automatically move towards the discharging direction during the vibration. The inclination of the top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism can be adjusted to be smaller by the inclination adjusting mechanism, so that the fishery products have a longer residence time. Correspondingly, the inclination is adjusted to be larger, so that the residence time is shorter. The inclined vibrating draining mechanism can also make the drained water gather and discharge in the same direction. After draining, the drained water can be discharged in the same area on the deck, so that the drained water can be prevented from being scattered and causing the deck to be wet and slippery in a large range.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of quick-freezing equipment technology, and in particular to a draining component of a marine tunnel-type mixed quick-freezing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] People have high requirements for the quality of frozen seafood. During conventional freezing, ice crystals slowly form inside the seafood as the temperature drops. Because of this slow process, the ice crystals are relatively large. These large ice crystals can pierce the cell walls of the fish, causing the loss of cell juice. At the same time, the ice crystals continue to act on the fish cells, damaging the cell structure and resulting in a poor texture and loss of flavor. Therefore, seafood caught in the open sea is preserved using quick-freezing methods whenever possible.

[0003] Before quick-freezing, the catch can be treated with supercooled water to cool it down quickly. However, existing marine tunnel-type mixed quick-freezing equipment often does not use a special draining device to drain the catch after it has been rinsed with water, which makes it impossible to control the quick-freezing effect of the catch. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a draining component for a marine tunnel-type quick-freezing mixing equipment.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a drainage component of a marine tunnel-type quick-freezing equipment, which is installed above the deck, includes a vibrating drainage mechanism and an angle adjustment mechanism. The angle adjustment mechanism is adapted to adjust the angle of the top surface of the vibrating drainage mechanism to control the residence time of the catch to be quick-frozen on the vibrating drainage mechanism.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, the vibrating drainage mechanism includes a mesh screen and a vibrating element, wherein the vibrating element continuously acts on the mesh screen to cause the surface of the mesh screen to vibrate continuously.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the vibration drainage mechanism further includes an elastic buffer mechanism, which is fixedly connected to the mesh screen.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the dewatering component of the marine tunnel-type quick-freezing equipment also includes a base frame, on which the elastic buffer mechanism and the vibrating element are both fixedly installed.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the elastic buffer mechanism is provided in multiple pairs.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the base frame includes a support portion, a rotating portion, and a fixed portion. The rotating portion is rotatably mounted around one side of the support portion, and the fixed portion is adapted to fix the rotating portion. The rotating portion and the fixed portion form the tilt adjustment mechanism. The mesh screen and the vibrating element are both fixedly mounted on the rotating portion.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the fixing part is formed with a first limiting part and a second limiting part, the first limiting part and the second limiting part being the upper limit and lower limit of the rotating part, respectively, so that the rotating part is limited to a set angle range.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the dewatering component of the marine tunnel-type mixing quick-freezing equipment further includes a guide plate disposed at the end of the base frame, and a rotating shaft is disposed between the rotating part and the supporting part, the rotating shaft being disposed on the side close to the guide plate.

[0013] Preferably, the tilt angle of the guide plate is greater than the tilt angle of the mesh screen.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the elastic buffer mechanism includes a first fixing block fixed to the mesh screen, a spring, and a second fixing block fixed to the base frame.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the support includes height adjustment rods located at the four corners, which are adapted to adjust the height of the base frame.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0017] This application features an inclined top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism, allowing the product to automatically move in the discharge direction during vibration. Furthermore, since quick-frozen products require a certain time to freeze in the freezer, the vibrating draining mechanism also needs to control the product feeding speed. This can be achieved by adjusting the inclination angle of the top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism, allowing for a longer product residence time, and conversely, a larger inclination angle results in a shorter residence time. Additionally, the inclined vibrating draining mechanism directs the drained water in the same direction, ensuring that the water is discharged within the same area on the deck, preventing spillage and excessive slipperiness on the deck.

[0027] The terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, in the specification and claims of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or device.

[0028] Example:

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 4This application proposes a draining component for a marine tunnel-type quick-freezing equipment, which is located above the deck and outside the quick-freezing compartment 1. It works in conjunction with a water-passing component installed on the ship. The water-passing component is used to pass the catch through water. It can be a water trough for manual water-passing and transfer to the draining component of this application, or it can be an automatic water-passing structure, such as a conveyor belt and a water trough, with the middle of the conveyor belt facing downward in the water trough and the sides higher than the water trough. Such an automatic water-passing structure is easy to implement and is not the focus of this application, so it will not be described in detail.

[0030] The draining components mainly include a vibrating draining mechanism and an angle adjustment mechanism. The angle adjustment mechanism is suitable for adjusting the angle of the top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism to control the residence time of the catch to be quick-frozen on the vibrating draining mechanism. Due to the limited space on board, ordinary draining followed by transfer requires additional equipment space. This application sets the top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism at an angle, so that the product will automatically move in the discharge direction during vibration. On the other hand, since quick-freezing of the catch in the quick-freezing bin requires a certain amount of time, the vibrating draining mechanism of this application also needs to control the feeding speed of the catch to a certain extent. For this purpose, the angle of the top surface of the vibrating draining mechanism can be adjusted to a smaller angle, so that the catch has a longer residence time. Correspondingly, a larger angle results in a shorter residence time. In addition, the inclined vibrating draining mechanism can also make the drained water gather and discharge in the same direction. In this way, after draining, the drained water can be discharged in the same area on the deck, which can prevent the drained water from splashing and causing a large area of ​​slippery deck.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the preferred vibrating drainage mechanism includes a mesh screen 2 and a vibrating element 5. The vibrating element 5 continuously acts on the mesh screen 2 to make the surface of the mesh screen 2 vibrate continuously. The mesh screen 2 facilitates water drainage during the drainage process.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the vibrating draining mechanism also includes an elastic buffer mechanism 4, which is fixedly connected to the mesh screen 2. Since the vibrating element 5 operates continuously, its action on the mesh surface of the mesh screen 2 causes the product on the screen 2 to vibrate and drain. However, the overall amplitude of the mesh screen 2 may increase when the vibrating element 5 operates continuously. Excessive amplitude can also have a certain impact on the product. The elastic buffer mechanism 4 in this application reduces the amplitude and minimizes the impact on the product. The elastic buffer mechanism 4 is a commonly used buffer device in the vibrating screen field; its specific structure and principle will not be elaborated further.

[0033] The drainage components of this shipboard tunnel-type quick-freezing mixing equipment also include a base frame 3, an elastic buffer mechanism 4, and a vibrating element 5, all of which are fixedly installed on the base frame 3. Preferably, multiple pairs of elastic buffer mechanisms 4 are provided. Figure 3 There are two pairs in the middle. Through the structural arrangement of multiple pairs of elastic buffer mechanisms 4, the mesh screen 2 can be smoothly installed onto the elastic buffer mechanism 4.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, to facilitate the adjustment of the top surface tilt angle of the mesh screen 2, the base frame 3 includes a support part 7, a rotating part 8, and a fixing part 11. The rotating part 8 is rotatably mounted around one side of the support part 7, and the fixing part 11 is suitable for fixing the rotating part 8. The rotating part 8 and the fixing part 11 form a tilt angle adjustment mechanism. The mesh screen 2 and the vibrating element 5 are both fixedly mounted on the rotating part 8. The support part 7 is directly fixedly mounted on the deck, serving as a fixed support. The rotating part 8 facilitates the rotation of the mesh screen 2 to adjust the tilt angle, and the fixing part 11 is the structure for fixing. The rotating part 8 can be directly fixed and rotatably connected to the support part 7 through a rotating shaft 9. The fixing part 11 can be a locking component provided on the rotating shaft 9, for example, the rotating shaft 9 is provided with a ring of locking teeth, and the fixing part 11 is a locking component adapted to the locking teeth. When the fixing part 11 is engaged, the locking teeth of the rotating shaft 9 are fixed and cannot rotate, and when the fixing part 11 is released, the rotating part 8 can rotate.

[0035] The following is a preferred embodiment of the fixing part 11: The fixing part 11 is provided with a first limiting part 12 and a second limiting part 13, which are the upper and lower limits of the rotating part 8, respectively, so that the rotating part 8 is limited to a set angle range. After the rotating part 8 is fixed in the fixing part 11, when the vibrating element 5 continues to act, the rotating part 8 and the mesh screen 2 can vibrate within a small angle range. With the setting of the elastic buffer mechanism 4, the mesh screen 2 has a stable and better drainage effect. At the same time, the upper limit of the amplitude is controlled so that the vibration of the mesh screen 2 reduces the impact on the product and reduces the production of defective products. The first limiting part 12 and the second limiting part 13 can be set as bolts, and the fixing part 11 is fixed to the base frame 3. When the bolts are loosened, they can slide up and down in the internal space of the fixing part 11, and when they are tightened, they are fixed on the fixing part 11. In this way, the specific position of the two on the fixing part 11 can be flexibly controlled, which limits the rotation range of the rotating part 8, that is, the amplitude.

[0036] The dewatering component of this shipboard tunnel-type mixing quick-freezing equipment also includes a guide plate located at the end of the base frame 3. A rotating shaft 9 is provided between the rotating part 8 and the support part 7, with the shaft 9 positioned near the guide plate. Preferably, the inclination angle of the guide plate is greater than that of the mesh screen 2. Material feeding at the guide plate needs to be unobstructed, and product retention is not a concern; therefore, the inclination angle of the guide plate is generally larger to prevent product jamming. Figure 3 As shown, the tilt angle of the guide plate 6 is more than 30°, while the tilt angle of the rotating part 8, or the mesh screen 2, is only 5-10°.

[0037] The elastic buffer mechanism 4 includes a first fixing block that is fixed to the mesh screen 2. Figure 3 The rectangular block above point 4), the spring, and the second fixing block fixed to the base frame 3 ( Figure 3 (The rectangular block below the number 4). The first and second fixing blocks can effectively fix the screen 2. It should be noted that since the screen 2 is not directly fixed with rods, the spring here needs to have a certain bending resistance in the direction perpendicular to the elasticity. For example, thickening the spring can increase the bending resistance.

[0038] Since the draining component requires feeding and other operations during operation, for ease of manual operation, the base frame 3 and the vibrating draining mechanism should preferably be height-adjustable. A preferred support 7 includes height-adjusting rods (not shown in the figure, only the principle is described) located at the four corners. These rods are suitable for adjusting the height of the base frame 3. Common height-adjusting rods include, for example, the connection between inner and outer rods; any rod that can be adjusted in height and fixed in place will suffice, and this application will not impose further limitations.

[0039] After being rinsed, the catch is transferred to the draining component described in this application, which drains the catch until the surface is no longer dripping wet. Figure 5 The left side shows the identification component. After the catch is drained, the weight or size of the catch is identified by the identification component. The drained catch is then transferred through the guide plate 6. During the transfer, the catch enters the quick-freezing chamber 1 through the inlet 14 for quick-freezing. During quick-freezing, the quick-freezing parameters can be adjusted according to the weight or size of the caught. After processing, the catch is discharged from the outlet 15.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely the principles of this application. Various changes and modifications can be made to this application without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims.
