AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing methods for cooling or heating food in restaurants face inefficiencies such as low heat exchange due to small contact areas, dirt accumulation, and difficulty in cleaning, as well as energy waste from cooling the outside air.
Method used
A double-walled water tank structure with a gap for heat transfer medium circulation and external insulation, combined with a drain hole for versatility, enhances heat exchange efficiency and prevents external cooling.
Benefits of technology
The solution achieves rapid temperature adjustment of food by maximizing heat exchange and preventing external cooling, while allowing the tank to be used as a sink without increasing cleaning effort.

Abstract
To provide a temperature-controlled water storage device that can control a temperature of a cooking object in a short time by effectively transmitting heat from a heat medium to the water stored in a water storage tank and can be used as a sink.SOLUTION: A double wall structured water storage tank has a hollow space therebetween and circulates a heat medium through the hollow space. An outside whole area of the water storage tank is covered with a thermal insulation material to reduce heat exchange with the outside air. A drain hole capable of being opened and closed is provided in a bottom of the water storage tank.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
