Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field This invention accommodates a large number of materials of arbitrary shapes containing salt evenly, and distributes the materials evenly by energization while saving power consumption. The present invention relates to a storage basket for producing electrically processed foods that can be subjected to heat sterilization to obtain electrically processed foods.

Prior Art Conventionally, when manufacturing packaged foods by subjecting raw materials such as raw fishery products, livestock animals, or grains that can be obtained at low cost to heat sterilization, it is common practice to use a material that is open at both ends of an insulating shape-retaining cylinder of a predetermined shape. , energizing shape-retaining frames having a large number of energizing holes in their flat parts are slidably fitted facing each other, and planar salt-containing water electrical contacts are provided on both the inner and outer surfaces of each of the energizing shape-retaining frames. After filling and storing the materials one by one in a packaging container constructed by pasting
It is known that packaged foods were manufactured by pressing a pair of electrode plates from both sides so as to bring them into close contact with a salt-containing water electrically connected body, and applying current across the pair of electrode plates. It is described in Japanese Patent No. 56-5042 and is well known.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, according to the above-mentioned known manufacturing means,
During the manufacturing process, there is a filling operation in which the material is filled into the insulating shape-retaining cylinder one by one, a work in which the open part after filling with the material is closed with an energizing shape-retaining frame pasted with a salt-containing water conductor, and an energizing process. Perhaps because it requires a process such as bringing the pair of electrode plates into close contact with the salt-containing water contact, the shape of the material is limited to the shape of the insulating shape-retaining frame, making it difficult to package a large number of materials with arbitrary shapes. As a result, it goes without saying that mass production cannot be achieved by simple manufacturing means.According to conventional equipment, the filling material, salt-containing water contact body, and a pair of When all three parts of the electrode plate were not in close contact with each other, problems occurred such as a half-baked product due to poor energization. Therefore, the present invention aims to fill the insulating shape-retaining cylinder with the material one by one, or to paste a salt-containing water electrical contact material on the open part of the insulating shape-retaining cylinder after filling, as in conventionally known manufacturing equipment. A large number of salt-treated materials in arbitrary shapes can be easily used without the need for complicated measures such as closing them with an attached current-carrying shape-retaining frame or bringing a pair of electrode plates into close contact with a salt-containing water contact body. is housed in an insulating casing with a large number of current-carrying windows on the peripheral wall and a pair of current-carrying plates on both left and right sides, and is a simple means of applying current between the pair of current-carrying plates. The above problem was solved by providing a storage basket for producing electrified processed foods that can uniformly sterilize ingredients while saving power consumption and quickly producing electrified processed foods with good taste. It is something.

Means for Solving the Problems Therefore, the technical means of the present invention is to easily and quickly heat-sterilize a large number of materials of arbitrary shapes, while saving power consumption, and to sterilize them with good taste. The aim is to make processed foods easily available.

In order to solve this technical problem, the device of the present invention,
In particular, we have developed an insulating casing that can store materials with an even salt content inside, and has a number of energizing windows on the surrounding wall.A pair of energizing plates are integrally installed on both the left and right sides of the insulating casing. This is a storage basket for producing electrified processed foods.

Action The above technical means works as follows (see Figures 1 to 3). That is, a large number of raw materials A, which are made of any shape and evenly contain an appropriate amount of salt for good conduction, are placed on the surrounding wall 2.
They are stacked and housed in an insulating casing 1 provided with a large number of windows 3 for energization. In this way, a large number of raw materials A
When the is housed, hold the insulating housing case 1,
If the material A is stored in an insulating container 8 and submerged in a dilute salt solution B with a salt concentration lower than that of the material A, the raw material A having an arbitrary shape can be placed in the dilute salt solution B. It becomes a state where it is pickled in the drain.

Therefore, if current is applied across the pair of electrode plates 6, 6 integrally attached to both the left and right sides of the insulating housing 1, the current is transmitted through the dilute salt solution B as the current-carrying medium through the numerous current-carrying windows 3... A large number of stored materials A can be heated and sterilized at once in a short period of time by the Joule heat generated by smoothly and uniformly flowing through the material A, and an electrically processed food with good taste can be obtained. After the electrically processed food is obtained through the above operations, the insulating casing 1 is pulled out from the insulating container 8, and a new material A is added.
You can replace it with

Embodiment Next, the structure of a storage basket for producing electrically processed food according to the present invention will be described based on an embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings.

In the drawings, A represents raw aquatic animals that can be obtained at low cost, such as sardines, mackerel, horse mackerel, saury, and other fish bodies, or raw meat of these fish bodies, or raw livestock animals, such as livestock meat such as cows, pigs, and chickens. It is a material of any shape made of these kneaded materials or mixed materials thereof, and the material A is made to uniformly contain salt so that the salt concentration is, for example, 2% to 3%. Note that suitable seasonings or spices may be added to the above material A as necessary.

As mentioned above, the reason for adding 2% to 3% salt to material A is to allow the current to flow uniformly through material A during the subsequent electrical processing, and at the same time to improve the taste and quality of material A. The purpose is to promote the retention of

Reference numeral 1 denotes an insulating casing capable of accommodating a large number of materials A of arbitrary shapes in a stacked manner. A large number of energizing windows 3 are opened, and the open top side is covered with an insulating lid 4 whose one end is pivoted by a hinge 5 so as to be openable and closable. A pair of current-carrying plates 6, 6 are integrally attached to the left and right outer sides of the insulating casing 1 so as to face each other. 7 is a handle provided on the insulating lid 4.

B is a dilute salt solution with a salt concentration lower than that contained in material A, for example, 0.25% or less, and the dilute salt solution B is placed in an appropriate amount in an insulating container 8 of an appropriate shape with an open top surface. It is accommodated.

Therefore, after the insulating casing 1 containing a large number of materials A containing salt with a high salt concentration is submerged in a dilute salt solution B, it is placed between a pair of current-carrying plates 6, 6. When the current is passed through the dilute salt solution B as the current conducting medium, the current flows through the material A smoothly and uniformly, and the generated Joule heat is quickly transferred to the material A at once and in a short period of time, for example at 95°C. Not only can the electrified processed food with good taste be obtained by heat sterilization within a certain period of time, but the energizing distance can be made as short as possible to save power consumption. During the above-mentioned electrical processing, a large number of materials A each having an arbitrary shape are used.
can be energized by simply inserting it into the insulating container 8 while keeping it in the insulating casing 1 and soaking it in the dilute salt solution B. Therefore, as in the conventional method, the material is filled into a standardized insulating shape-retaining cylinder one by one, or the openings on both sides of the shape-retaining cylinder are closed with an energizing shape-retaining frame. It is possible to completely omit the energization work of pressing the electrode plate and mass-produce inexpensive energized processed foods with simple operations.

In addition, since material A contains salt with a higher salt concentration than dilute salt solution B, material A becomes approximately 20 degrees Celsius hotter during the heat sterilization process, and material A is sterilized by heat heat on average. It can be seen that the current is distributed evenly through the material A to save power consumption.

Furthermore, if material A is an aquatic animal, mixing a small amount of vinegar into the dilute salt solution B may promote the electrical conduction of material A and further improve the tightness of material A. It is possible to further reduce the unique odor of animals.

Effects of the Invention In short, since the present invention has the above-described configuration, unlike conventional manufacturing equipment, there is no need to perform the filling operation of filling and storing the material into the insulating holding cylinder one by one and the filling operation of the insulating holding cylinder after filling with the material. A large number of materials A made of arbitrary shapes containing salt evenly can be applied to the peripheral wall 2 without the need to perform a closing operation to close the openings on both sides and a pressing operation to press the electrode plates on both end surfaces of the current-carrying shape-retaining frame. After being housed in an insulating casing 1 in which a large number of energizing windows 3 are provided and a pair of energizing plates 6, 6 are integrally arranged on both the left and right sides,
The insulating casing 1 is housed in an insulating container 8,
Moreover, by submerging the material in a dilute salt solution B with a salt concentration lower than that of the material A and applying current across the pair of current-carrying plates 6, 6, a large number of
Moreover, it is possible to mass-produce electrically processed foods with good taste by subjecting material A of any shape to heat sterilization at once, but it is difficult to know under what conditions material A is housed in the insulating casing 1. Even if the dilute salt solution B with a low salt concentration is used as the energizing medium, there are many energizing windows 3...
Through this method, the current can be applied evenly and intensively through the material A, and the current-carrying distance can be shortened as much as possible to save power consumption, making it easy to produce electrically processed foods that are evenly heat-sterilized in a short period of time. In addition to this, there is an effect that the loading and unloading operations of the material A into the insulating container 8 can be efficiently achieved.
