Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to fried Satsuma, fried vegetables,
The present invention relates to a deoiling device for fried foods that removes excess oil attached to other fried foods.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Food products such as kamaboko, vegetables and livestock meat that have been fried with a fryer are used to remove excess oil adhering to the surface of the fried food products by sandwiching them between cloth belts and transferring a large number of them. At present, it is removed by being transferred on a roller conveyor or a net conveyor.

[0003]

However, according to the above-mentioned method of sandwiching and transporting by the cloth belt, even if the oil adsorbed by the deoiling roller is removed, the cloth belt must be frequently replaced from a hygienic point of view and the cloth belt can be made different depending on the kind of food. The distance between the belts must also be adjusted, and the latter roller or net conveyor transfer system does not uniformly and smoothly remove oil on the front and back sides, and it is extremely difficult to remove and clean the oil adhering to the rollers or net. There is a problem that it is troublesome and time consuming and labor consuming, and in any of the methods, it is impossible to remove and clean the oil at the same time as the deoiling action of the fried food.
In view of these circumstances, the present invention provides a deoiling device for fried foods that enables easy deoiling of excess oil attached to fried foods and removal and cleaning of the deoiled oil and frying dregs. It is intended to be provided.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention is provided with a scraper for axially intermittently providing a scraper for removing oil adhering to the upper part in a tilted movable cylinder for press contact. At the same time, a conveying tool for discharging oil etc. to the outside is provided below it, and reversing plates are projected at appropriate intervals on the inner peripheral surface of the moving cylinder so as not to interfere with the intermittent scraper. Further, if the reversing plate is formed in an inclined or spiral shape in the traveling direction so as to promote the transfer of the fried food, the deoiling action can be more efficiently performed.

[0005]

The fried food supplied to the transfer cylinder is shaken by the transfer action due to the inclination and rotation of the transfer cylinder, and the excess oil attached while being conveyed is removed by adhering to the wall surface of the transfer cylinder. The oil and frying dregs adhering to the surface are separated by a scraper and discharged to the outside by a transfer gutter, and the reversing plate is reversed while unraveling the deep-fry food being transferred to promote the action of removing the oil adhering to both front and back surfaces. To do.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.
On a machine frame 1 is provided a support base 3 whose one end is vertically movable by an elevating mechanism 2, and a transfer cylinder 4 is mounted on the support base 3.
Are rotatably supported by support rollers 5 and 5 ', respectively, and the support rollers 5 below the support rollers 5 and 5'are respectively transferred from a motor 6 through a transfer mechanism 4 through a transfer mechanism 4.
Is driven to rotate in the same direction, and a scraper 8 is attached to a support frame 9 on the inner upper part of the transfer cylinder 4 so as to make an elastic contact with the inner surface of the transfer cylinder 4 via a spring 7 in the axial direction. , The intermittent scraper 8
Below the table, a conveying tool 10 such as an inclined transfer gutter for discharging the oil or the frying residue separated by the scraper 8 to the outside.
Is provided.

Reversal plates 11 are provided on the inner peripheral surface of the transfer cylinder 4 at appropriate intervals so as not to interfere with the scraper 8 at intervals of, for example, 120 degrees, and the reversal plates 11 are provided.
Is preferably formed in a slanted or spiral shape so as to facilitate the transfer action of the fried food.

Since the embodiment of the present invention is configured as described above, the fried food supplied to the transfer cylinder 4 by the supply chute 12 or the like is transferred to the transfer cylinder by tilting and rotating in the transfer cylinder 4. The lower part of the body 4 is reversed and transferred by inverting the weight by the reversing plate 11, and the excess oil adhering to both the front and back sides of the fried food is adhered to the inner wall surface thereof to remove the excess oil. After that, while being taken out by the carry-out conveyor 13 and the like, oil and frying dregs and the like adhering to the inner wall surface of the transfer cylinder 4 are peeled off by the scraper 8 and discharged to the outside by the carrier 10. The inclination degree and the rotation speed of the transfer cylinder 4 are adjusted according to the type, shape, and size.

In the above embodiment, a single transfer cylinder is used, but if necessary, a plurality of large and small transfer cylinders can be connected to form a continuous structure, and the transfer cylinder has a cross section. It may be circular or polygonal, and since the transfer cylinder has a high temperature depending on the product, the transfer cylinder can be of a cooling type by a cooling shower or the like.

[0010]

According to the present invention, excess oil adhering to the fried food is removed while the fried food is moved in the tilted transfer cylinder, so that it depends on the type, size and shape of the fried food. The extra oil can be adhered to the inner wall surface of the transfer cylinder without removing the oil efficiently and reliably, and the oil and the frying dregs adhering to the transfer cylinder can be discharged outside by the scraper via the conveyor. It is also possible to remove and clean the oil adhering to the transfer cylinder smoothly and easily at the same time as the deoiling operation, and at the same time, the reversing plate reverses and transfers it while unraveling the weight of the fried food being transferred. It is possible to efficiently and quickly remove the excess oil attached to both front and back surfaces of a large amount of fried food efficiently.
