In addition to thawing by the above, the negative ion generation and far-infrared radiation surface tourmaline on the rear side of the chamber is heated with a heating sheet to activate far-infrared radiation, and the far-infrared radiation is extracted. Frozen foods are efficiently thawed by the synergistic effect of the thawing action by the negative ions and far infrared rays. A drawer-type frozen food thawing box with far infrared rays and negative ions, characterized in that

When thawing frozen foods, the freshness of the ingredients of the food itself is not lost, the taste, color and appearance are not impaired, and thawing to a state where the amount of drip inevitably generated when thawing frozen foods is small is possible. Conventionally, the following thawing means has been generally performed.
1. Immerse in water at a set temperature such as a water tank for a set time.
2. Thaw the frozen food with warm or cold air or running water.
3. Thaw by heating with heat from a heater or the like.
4. Thaw using high frequency and microwave (vibration).
5. Thaw the negative ion air generated using high voltage on frozen food.

The negative ions are known to have cell activity, sterilization, sterilization, and demetalization, and are effective in thawing frozen foods and maintaining freshness.・ Non-examined Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-77387), the equipment and frozen food must always have an insulating structure for safety, and there are many structural restrictions and the cost is high, and the user is often strong. There was a problem that was disliked in terms of receiving electrostatic shock.

Recently, it has been known to generate negative ions by paying attention to the characteristics of tourmaline (tourmaline). Tourmaline contains sodium, magnesium, iron, manganese, lithium, aluminum, boron, silicon, hydrogen, fluorine, etc., and it is known that tourmaline mineralizes water when dissolved in water. As described above, static electricity is generated permanently, and it is known that the static electricity generates negative ions. The negative ions generated by this tourmaline have a surface active action, and are cell activity, sterilization / sterilization, dust removal. Since it is known to exert actions such as humidity control, it is being applied to effective thawing of frozen foods.

Tourmaline always emits mid far infrared rays having a wavelength of 4 to 25 μm (micrometer).
Far-infrared rays are electromagnetic waves (having a wavelength of 4 to 1000 μm) and have no temperature themselves, but permeate organic matter such as food to vibrate water molecules and generate heat due to vibrational friction between the water molecules. The exothermic temperature is the same as the outer surface (for example, the internal temperature) of the organic substance and the inside (that is, the internal and external temperatures are equal), and has a characteristic that the temperature does not increase or decrease.
It is also known that far-infrared radiation becomes active when the temperature of a far-infrared radiation source (for example, tourmaline) is increased.
In addition, it is known that far-infrared rays are reflected by a metal, particularly a smooth metal surface (eg, a stainless steel polishing plate, an aluminum plate), and are not absorbed or transmitted.

The conventional thawing means (described in paragraphs [0002] to [0003]), the temperature inside and outside of the frozen food does not thaw evenly, and even if the outside thaws, the inside is not thawed, or its On the other hand, it may cause cell destruction of frozen food, resulting in an increase in the amount of drip, loss of freshness, taste, etc., discoloration, and easy propagation of germs. There was a problem such as shortening.

Regarding the characteristics of negative ions and far-infrared rays emitted from the above tourmaline, effective means capable of utilizing the characteristics for thawing frozen foods, in particular, appropriate temperature conditions for food thawing (eg, −2 ° C. to + 5 ° C.) However, it has been a big problem that effective means capable of utilizing negative ions and far infrared rays emitted from tourmaline have not been provided yet.

In addition, all the conventional frozen food thaws are open door type freezers, refrigerator-type ones, and a drawer-type frozen food thaw store dedicated to thawing as in the present invention was not provided at all. Unlike the drawer-type frozen food thaw store of the present invention, when the frozen / thawed food is variously processed and put into and out of the cabinet, the present invention can handle the frozen / thawed food immediately on the top plate. However, there was a problem that lacked convenience.

Therefore, the applicant and the inventor of the present invention are based on the previously filed Japanese Patent Application No. 2009-008935 (filed on Jan. 19, 2009) and the name of the invention “Frozen food thaw box with negative ions and far infrared rays”. Thus, the present invention has been carried out.

The present invention comprises a cabinet having a front, rear, upper and lower surfaces, and left and right sides having a heat-insulating configuration with an opening of a drawer insertion opening. With a top plate and a drawer that can be freely inserted and removed from the insertion slot on the front.

On the rear and left and right sides of the chamber, there are negative ion generating and far infrared emitting surfaces with tourmaline powder and particles attached to the surface of the aluminum plate, and heater wires on the rear negative ion generating and far infrared emitting surfaces In the cabinet, it is equipped with a blower that circulates the air in the cabinet, a humidifier that increases the humidity in the cabinet, and an air outlet of the mist generator. A refrigerator to be adjusted, a mist generator for feeding mist-like mist into the cabinet, and an operation panel of the electric system, and the drawer has a heat insulating structure on the front plate and left and right side plates as metal perforated plates, The rear surface is a resin plate that transmits far-infrared rays, and the bottom surface is provided with a ventilating water plate so as to be detachable,

Cool the internal air to the set temperature with a refrigerator, blow it along the inner wall surface with a blower, blow through the perforated plate of the drawer and the ventilating water plate, and circulate the inside of the warehouse uniformly Negative ion generation and far-infrared radiation surface in order to generate a large amount of negative ions continuously by contacting and colliding with the tourmaline powder and particles on the rear and left and right side of the chamber Defrosts by heating the outer and inner surfaces of the frozen food to a uniform temperature by contacting, colliding and transmitting the frozen ionized air and far-infrared rays generated and radiated from the frozen food placed on the draft ventilating plate. And the rear surface of the inside of the chamber to generate negative ions and heat the far-infrared radiation surface tourmaline with a heating sheet to activate far-infrared radiation, and draw out the far-infrared radiation Provided so as to decompress the frozen food resin plate transparent to be allowed to absorb and transmitted by the frozen food in the drawer,

By solving the problem with the extraction-type frozen food defroster with negative ions and far infrared rays, the frozen foods are efficiently thawed by the synergistic effect of the thawing action with negative ions and far infrared rays. is there.

(1) The present invention can continuously generate a large amount of negative ions due to the electrostatic action of tourmaline. Therefore, a large amount of negative ions can be efficiently brought into contact with frozen food to thaw frozen food (water molecules). Subdivision → Frost adhesion (mist freezing) → Frost does not become water and directly sublimates effectively without damaging its cells, so there is little temperature difference between the surface of the frozen food and the center, and the center of the frozen food There is an excellent effect that can be thawed evenly without the occurrence of drip.
(2) Also, due to the characteristics of far-infrared radiation emitted by tourmaline, the frozen food is heated to the same internal temperature (for example, a range of −2 ° C. to + 5 ° C. set as an appropriate thawing temperature) and becomes the same. At that time, the temperature will not rise any further, and the heat will be received by the amount of heat transferred to the inside of the frozen food, so the surface of the frozen food will be in a short period of time immediately after touching the circulating air at the set temperature. In this case, the inside of the frozen food is heated to the same temperature as the surface temperature in a short time by transmitting far infrared rays, and even if the heating time is exceeded, the temperature rises above the set internal temperature. Therefore, it is possible to heat the surface of the frozen food from the surface to the inside at a uniform temperature in a short time, that is, by heating to the proper temperature for thawing, without reducing the freshness of the food material itself, taste, color, No loss of appearance Also, can the amount of generated drip necessarily resulting during thawing of frozen food is thawed very small state, thus, there is an optimum feature as a decompression means for frozen foods.
(3) In the present invention, a heating sheet (electric heating sheet in sheet form, film form, etc.) is installed on the back side of the negative ion generating and far-infrared radiation surface with tourmaline powder / particles attached on the surface side of the aluminum plate. Since tourmaline is heated, there is a feature that activates far-infrared radiation of tourmaline due to a temperature rise due to heating.
(4) Tourmaline always emits far-infrared rays, and the far-infrared rays are mid-infrared rays having a wavelength of 4 to 25 μm, and act to activate / activate living cells. Therefore, there is an epoch-making effect that can effectively and efficiently thaw fresh foods such as fish and shellfish, meat and vegetables, all frozen foods such as bread, cakes and noodles and other thawing objects.
(5) Negative ions are excellent in dust removal, sterilization, humidity control and effects, and far infrared rays have the effect of activating and activating living cells, so thawing is performed hygienically and without harming food. Even after thawing, it becomes a refrigerator and has the effect of preventing the growth and propagation of bacteria by keeping it cool.
(6) Since the present invention is a front-drawer type, it is difficult to manage because a normal front door type or other thawing cabinet is not visible in the back, and it is difficult to take out, whereas the drawer type is Since the stored items can be listed from the top simply by pulling out the drawer, there is an advantage that is extremely convenient for management, removal, etc.
(7) Although far infrared rays are reflected without passing through the aluminum plate 15 (metal), the present invention is made of a resin plate on the rear surface of the drawer opposite to the negative ion generating and far infrared emitting surface provided with the heating sheet. By doing so, there is a feature provided that far infrared rays are transmitted.
(8) The present invention automatically adjusts the inside of the refrigerator to an appropriate temperature (eg, a range of −2 ° C. to + 5 ° C.) and humidity with a refrigerator, heater, humidifier, circulating air, etc., so that the frozen food is not uneven. As well as being able to be thawed efficiently, the temperature is automatically adjusted at the same time as the thawing is completed, so that a “refrigerator” can maintain the freshness of the thawed food for a long time.
(9) Since the present invention has a configuration in which the left and right side plates and the bottom surface of the drawer can be freely ventilated, the circulating air can be circulated in the entire chamber, and the temperature adjustment effect, the negative ion effect, etc. can be frozen food. There is an excellent effect that can be applied evenly and efficiently.
(10) The present invention requires very little power consumption (fee) and water consumption (fee), and labor costs are fully automatic, except for frozen food storage / removal operations. Can be kept very low.
