Description

Frying device Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cooking equipment, in particular to a frying device. Background Art

[0002] Deep fryers are commonly used to fry large quantities of battered food, such as chicken, fish, or French fries. During the frying process, food crumbs, batter, and the like fall from the fried food. If these crumbs, batter, and the like remain in the frying oil, they can affect the taste of the fried food.

[0003] Existing deep fryers usually use new cooking oil to replace part of the frying oil or regularly filter the frying oil. The one-time filtration of the frying oil means that the frying oil in the deep fryer is filtered through a filter structure to filter out the oil residue and harmful substances therein, and then discharged into an oil storage tank. Finally, the frying oil in the oil storage tank is transported to the deep fryer for use through an oil pump.

[0004] The filtering method of this type of fryer has the following problems:

[0005] 1. It is usually necessary to filter the frying oil in the pot after frying. The food crumbs or small particles of batter dropped during the frying process are easily burnt under high temperature frying, affecting the overall frying quality.

[0006] 2. The method of filtering the frying oil once at a fixed time cannot control the quality index of the frying oil. It is difficult to avoid that the frying oil is not filtered in time after being used for a long time, resulting in fried foods absorbing harmful substances in the frying oil, which is not good for human health and has low reliability of the fryer.

[0021] Specifically, as shown in Figures 1-3, the frying device 100 of the present invention includes a frame 1, a pot body 2, a cover 3, a frying basket 4 and a frying oil filtering system.

[0022] 1. Rack 1

[0023] The frame 1 is composed of a rectangular base, four columns 11 fixed to the rectangular base, and crossbeams and longitudinal beams overlapped on the columns 11. Between the left longitudinal beam 12 (taking the paper where Figure 1 is located as an example, the direction facing the observer is the front of the frame 1, the direction pointing to the paper is the back of the frame 1, the left is the left of the frame 1, and the right is the right of the frame 1, the same below) and the right longitudinal beam 13 is connected by a frame beam that divides the frame 1 into a front area and a rear area. Between the rear crossbeam and the frame beam and close to the left longitudinal beam 12 and the right longitudinal beam 13, there is a positioning beam for installing a lifting mechanism 6 that drives the cover 3 to rise or fall.

It is preferably a rectangular structure with an open top, and its material is a magnetic material, preferably 433 type stainless steel. Specifically, the pot body 2 is embedded in the area enclosed by the frame beam, the positioning beam and the rear cross beam, and its left and right sides are fixed to the positioning beams on the corresponding sides through connecting parts.

[0027] The utility model adopts electromagnetic heating to heat the oil in the pot body 2. The electromagnetic heating coil is preferably in the following two ways:

[0028] 1) A first electromagnetic heating coil 71 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the pot body 2 and is distributed from top to bottom. The first electromagnetic heating coil 71 preferably covers one-third to two-thirds of the side wall of the pot body 2. The specific situation is determined by the height of the oil contained in the pot body 2. Preferably, the position of the uppermost turn of the first electromagnetic coil is lower than the highest design liquid level of the oil in the pot body 2.

[0029] 2) A second electromagnetic heating coil 72 is provided at the bottom of the pot body 2 . The second electromagnetic heating coil 72 is a disc-type heating coil, and its shape and size are adapted to the shape and size of the bottom of the pot body 2 .

[0030] The above two electromagnetic heating methods can be used separately or simultaneously.

[0031] 3. Lid 3

[0032] The lid 3 is arranged directly above the pot body 2, and can be moved upward to open the pot body 2 or moved downward to cover the opening of the pot body 2 through a lifting mechanism 6. The lid 3 is also a rectangular structure, and its bottom area is larger than the opening area of ​​the pot body 2. In order to further enhance the sealing performance of the lid 3 after covering the pot body 2, a sealing ring with a shape and size that matches the opening of the pot body 2 is provided at the bottom of the lid 3; the sealing ring can prevent the oil in the pot body 2 from splashing outward during frying.

[0033] The frying basket 4 is fastened to the lid 3 and the frying basket 4 is fastened to the lid 3.

[0034] The supporting bracket 31 is directly arranged at the bottom of the cover 3, which simplifies the structure and realizes the synchronous lifting and lowering of the frying basket 4 and the cover 3, thereby shortening the time of executing the lower frying basket 4 and closing the cover during frying and improving efficiency.

[0035] 4. Frying basket 4

[0036] The frying basket 4 is used for holding food to be fried.

[0037] Preferably, the base frame 41 is provided with an upper shelf and a lower shelf, and the number of the frying baskets 4 is two, which are respectively placed on the upper shelf and the lower shelf.

[0038] Preferably, the outer contour of the frying basket 4 is a rectangular body, and a plurality of independent compartments are provided in the frying basket 4, so that the ingredients to be fried can be placed separately in the corresponding compartments, so that the ingredients can be fully contacted with the oil, the frying is more uniform, and the fried food has better integrity.

[0039] 5. Frying oil filtration system

[0040] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the frying oil filtration system includes an oil pump assembly, an oil spray pipe 54 and a filter tray 56 .

Preferably, the oil pump 51 adopts a cycloid pump; the oil inlet of the oil inlet circulation pipe 52 is connected to the oil drain port 21 at the bottom of the pot body 2, and the oil outlet of the oil inlet circulation pipe 52 is connected to the inlet of the oil pump 51; the oil inlet of the oil outlet circulation pipe 53 is connected to the outlet of the oil pump 51, and the oil outlet of the oil outlet circulation pipe 53 is connected to the oil injection pipe 54.

[0042] The oil spray pipe 54 is arranged on the upper part of the side wall of the pot body 2 , and the oil outlet 541 of the oil spray pipe 54 is placed in the pot body 2 .

[0043] The top of the filter tray 56 is open and has a wedge shape. Specifically, the filter tray 56 is arranged in the space between the bottom surface of the cover 3 and the frying basket 4.

[0044] Preferably, a rectangular supporting frame 57 for placing the filter residue pan 56 is provided in the space enclosed by the left ear frame 311 and the right ear frame 312. The top of the supporting frame 57 is fixed to the bottom surface of the cover 3. The front side of the supporting frame 57 is an opening for taking out or putting in the filter residue pan 56. An opening for the oil spray pipe 54 to spray the residue oil into the filter residue pan 56 is provided at the rear of the supporting frame 57. A through hole is provided at the bottom for the frying oil filtered by the filter residue pan to fall. The height of the supporting frame 57 is smaller than the height of the vertical plate.
