[0023] Please see Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0024] A vacuum marinating device for permeating cured meat flavor includes a sealed jar, which comprises a jar body 3 and a top cover 4. The top cover 4 is snapped onto the top of the jar body 3. One side of the jar body 3 is rotatably connected to one side of a support frame 6 via a rotating shaft 5. The other side of the jar body 3 is drively connected to the output shaft of the equipment box 2 via a rotating shaft 5. A vacuum extraction port 7 is installed on the surface of the jar body 3. A snap-fit frame 11 is provided around the top opening of the jar body 3 and is fixedly connected to the jar body 3. A snap-fit groove 12 is opened at the bottom of the top cover 4, and the snap-fit frame 11 is snapped into the snap-fit groove 12. A sealing gasket is provided between the snap-fit frame 11 and the snap-fit groove 12 and is adhered to the inside of the snap-fit groove 12. A buckle 13 is installed at the position of the jar body 3 by screws. A fixing seat 14 that cooperates with the buckle 13 is installed around the top cover 4 by screws. A first handle 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the top cover 4.
[0025] By setting up a sealed container, a vacuum environment can be provided for curing bacon. The top of the container 3 and the top cover 4 are tightly fitted by a snap-fit frame 11, a snap-fit groove 12 and a sealing gasket, and reinforced by a buckle 13 and a fixing seat 14 to ensure airtightness. The side of the container 3 is connected to the support frame 6 and the equipment box 2 respectively by a rotating shaft 5. It can be rotated under the drive of the equipment box 2. With the vacuum extraction port 7 on the surface of the container 3, a stable vacuum curing environment can be constructed. The inner cavity 1 inside is connected to the sealed container and is used to store meat pieces and marinade. Under the vacuum and rotation of the sealed container, the marinade can be accelerated to penetrate.
[0026] It also includes a device box 2 for driving the rotation of the sealed container, which integrates a motor, a gearbox, etc., for driving the sealed container to rotate at low speed; it is also equipped with a vacuum pump, supplemented by solenoid valves and pressure sensors to establish and maintain a vacuum environment; and an electrical control system, which is based on a PLC controller to coordinate the operation of the motor and solenoid valves, and realizes human-machine interaction through the operation panel.
[0027] It also includes a holding cavity 1 for holding meat pieces. The holding cavity 1 is located inside the sealed tank. The holding cavity 1 is fixedly connected to the bottom middle of the top cover 4. Pressure valves 8 are fixedly installed on both sides of the holding cavity 1. An inlet / outlet 9 is opened on the side of the holding cavity 1 adjacent to the pressure valves 8. A sealing baffle 10 is provided on the outside of the inlet / outlet 9. A sliding mounting groove 15 is provided on the outside of the inlet / outlet 9. The sliding mounting groove 15 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the holding cavity 1. The sealing baffle 10 is slidably installed in the sliding mounting groove 15. A sealing strip is provided between the sealing baffle 10 and the sliding mounting groove 15. The sealing strip is adhered to the side of the sealing baffle 10 facing the inlet / outlet 9. A second handle 17 is fixedly installed on the other side of the sealing baffle 10.
[0028] By setting up an inner cavity 1, meat chunks and marinade can be placed in place of a sealed container instead of a sealed container, facilitating loading and unloading and preventing contamination of the sealed container's interior. It is fixed to the bottom of the top cover 4 and placed inside the sealed container. Pressure valves 8 installed on both sides provide an outlet for air to escape from the inner cavity 1 during vacuuming, ensuring a stable pressure difference during vacuum marinating to promote marinade penetration. They automatically close after extraction to prevent marinade leakage to the inner wall of the sealed container during rotation. The side-mounted inlet / outlet 9 is equipped with a sliding sealing baffle 10 with a sealing strip, which prevents... It prevents marinade leakage during the marinating process and facilitates loading and unloading operations. After marinating, the inner cavity 1 can be disassembled along with the top cover 4 to remove the meat and marinade as a whole, avoiding material residue from contaminating the sealed container. It can also be directly transported to the washing area for rinsing, greatly reducing cleaning difficulty and effectively reducing bacterial growth. At the same time, its linkage design with the sealed container can cause the meat to turn over when the container 3 rotates, achieving efficient and uniform marinating in conjunction with the vacuum environment. Among them, the pressure valve 8 is mainly composed of a sealing piston plate, spring, valve body and other components. The valve body serves as the pressure valve 8. The main body provides installation space for internal components and is fixedly connected to both sides of the inner cavity 1. An opening is provided on one side of the valve housing surface to form a gas flow channel. The sealing piston plate is located inside the valve housing and has a sealing ring on its surface, which fits tightly against the inner wall of the valve housing. This prevents the marinade from seeping into the pressure valve 8 and ensures the airtightness of the gas channel. One end of the spring is fixed to the inner side of the valve housing, and the other end abuts against the sealing piston plate, providing a reset thrust for the piston plate. When the sealed container starts to evacuate, a pressure difference is generated inside and outside the inner cavity 1, and the sealing piston plate... Under pressure, the spring force is overcome and the pressure valve moves towards the opening of the valve body, opening the pressure valve 8 and allowing the air in the inner cavity 1 to be quickly discharged. When the vacuum extraction is completed and the pressure inside and outside the inner cavity 1 reaches equilibrium, the spring releases the stored elastic potential energy, pushes the sealing piston plate to reset, and closes the pressure valve 8. This prevents the marinade from leaking from the pressure valve 8 to the inner wall of the sealed tank due to the rotation of the tank body 3 during the marinating process, maintains stable vacuum marinating conditions inside the device, and also ensures the cleanliness of the inside of the sealed tank, reducing the amount of subsequent cleaning work.
[0029] In practical use, move the device to the designated location. First, open the top cover 4 using the first handle 16, slide the second handle 17 to move the sealing baffle 10 away from the inlet / outlet 9, and put the meat pieces and marinade into the inner cavity 1. Then close the sealing baffle 10. Next, snap the top cover 4 onto the tank body 3, so that the snap frame 11 is embedded into the snap groove 12, and lock it with the fastener 13 and the fixing seat 14. Use an external pipe to connect to the vacuum pump inside the equipment box 2 through the vacuum extraction port 7 to draw the vacuum to the set vacuum level. Then, the equipment box 2 drives the sealed tank to rotate, so that the meat pieces can fully contact and penetrate the marinade in the vacuum environment. After marinating, release the vacuum through the vacuum extraction port 7, open the fastener 13 to remove the top cover 4, and take it out together with the inner cavity 1. Slide the sealing baffle 10 to unload the material. Then, directly transport the inner cavity 1 to the cleaning area for rinsing.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
