Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention proposes an economical rice rice storehouse where individual farmers can eat rice whose taste does not deteriorate throughout the year.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The taste of rice has many factors such as variety, place of origin, climate, cultivation method, drying, storage, fumigation, and roasting. The rice harvested in the fall is stored as brown rice at room temperature in October of the following year, and the taste of the rice is significantly deteriorated. This is because the temperature in the warehouse rises above 16 ° C after mid-May, the activity of pests and disease fungi begins to change, and the rice quality changes, and the rice that is being stored constantly breathes. It is said that this condition lasts for 2-3 months due to the active consumption of ingredients.

In order to solve the above problems, adiabatic storage in which heat from the outside is blocked and stored, semi-low temperature storage in which the inside of the refrigerator is kept at 15 ° C to 20 ° C, and storage of 10 ° C to 15 ° C in the refrigerator Keep at low temperature and store at -2 ° C
A method of refrigerating storage in which the temperature is kept at 10 to 10 ° C. is proposed and used for storing a large amount of brown rice.

[0004]

However, the above-mentioned storage method is a method for storing a large amount of brown rice to be shipped to consumers, and the equipment is expensive for individual farmers, which is not economical. So it is not used at all. Therefore, the farmers themselves who are producing rice eat rice whose taste has deteriorated after August.

[0005]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, a brown rice bag 9 containing brown rice having a weight of about 30 kg which can be directly carried by hand can be freely opened and closed by rotating it about a vertical axis 10 at a lateral end. Inside widths of the door openings 11 having the doors 2 that can be arranged at small intervals along the width direction, the inside depth of one bag of the brown rice bags 9 and the door openings 11 for each of the brown rice bags 9. Inside 1 formed at the height of inside 1 where each bag can be loaded and unloaded from the outside position
The ceiling 12 has a cooler 3 for maintaining the temperature of the inside 1 within the range of 5 ° C to 15 ° C in the period where the outside air temperature is 16 ° C or more, and is portable. It will be the composition of rice rice storage in the farmhouse.

[0006] Further, in claim 2, the ceiling 12 of the storage.
The cooling device 3 is positioned in the opening 13 of the cooling device 3, the upper part of the cooling device 3 is projected above the ceiling 12, and the lower evaporator 4 part is provided so as to project into the interior 1.
It shall be the composition of rice rice storage in the farmer described in paragraph.

[0007]

[Function] Brown rice, which is eaten by each farmer from the time it is harvested until around May of the following year, is stored at room temperature without being put in this storage, but the remaining 6
The brown rice that is stored for a period of high temperature from about month to about October is stored at a low temperature in the storage according to the present invention.

The rice cooked at room temperature as described above has been used for food by the middle of May and is kept at 16 ° C.
Since it is not exposed to the above temperature for a long time, there is no deterioration in the taste. About half of the remaining rice, which is stored at least during the high temperature period from June to October, is brown rice in a storage container with about 30 kg of bag each.
Since it is stored in the temperature of ℃ to 15 ℃, (1) it prevents the growth of harmful insects and microorganisms, (2) there is little wear and loss of vitality due to the breathing of rice itself, and the freshness of rice is maintained (3 )
The rice has a good taste, (4) does not require fumigation, and the quality of the rice is irresistible.

When the brown rice bag 9 containing brown rice is stored in the storage compartment 1, the door 2 is opened by rotating the door 2 around the vertical axis 10 on one side and opening the door opening 11 fully. In this state, the bags 9 are arranged at a small interval in the width direction of the door opening 11 and stacked on each of the arranged bags 9. At this time, the bags 9 are stacked and stored so that a small space is also formed between the bags 9 and one wall surface in the refrigerator.

During cold storage, the cooler 3 on the ceiling 12 is electrically operated to circulate cool air in the mutual intervals around each brown rice bag 9 in the interior 1 and the interval with the wall surface around the inside of the interior of the interior of the inside of the refrigerator 1. Brown rice bag 9
The peripheral surface is maintained in a low temperature region of 5 ° C to 15 ° C. To remove the brown rice bag 9 from the inside 1 of this storage, open the door 2
The brown rice bags 9 stacked in the storage 1 are dropped one by one from the topmost one and taken out. In this way, the brown rice in the brown rice bag 9 taken out from the storage at the appropriate time is refined into rice.

[0011]

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, it has the following technical effects. In other words, the depth and height of the storage as well as the width and other external dimensions are made small, lightweight, compact, and portable, so that it is generally used at the corners of farmhouse floors, barns, etc. It can be installed or replaced in much the same way as a household refrigerator.
Moreover, although the cooler 3 projects upward from the ceiling portion 12, it can approach the wall surface of the house, etc., and does not take up a large installation space.

Further, by rotating the door 2 around the vertical axis 10 at the lateral end of the door opening 11 and opening it, even if a person does not step in the inside 1 of the refrigerator, the person can stay outside the door opening 11 and directly feed the brown rice bag 9 It is convenient because it can be easily and easily loaded and unloaded from the inside 1 or inside and outside the refrigerator. Further, as a storage, it can be inexpensively produced due to its size, internal capacity, cooling capacity, etc., the operating period of the cooler 3 for cooking rice is short, and the maintenance cost during use is low. Is a temperature control close to room temperature, and it is economical because it has a small-volume internal 1 configuration.

In such a storage, the cooler 3
Has a small capacity and is attached to the opening 13 formed in the thickness portion of the ceiling 12 so that the protrusion to the upper surface or the lower surface of the ceiling 12 can be reduced. The effective height and volume of the inside 1 can be increased to reduce the overall height up to the upper surface of the cooler 3.

[0014]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. Figure 1
Like, the storage has an internal size of width x depth x height of about 10
It has a cubic shape of 0 cm × 70 cm and 130 cm, and is provided with a door 2 that opens and closes by rotating around a vertical axis 10 on the front surface. The main body of the storage and the wall of the door 2 have a heat insulating structure in which a urethane foam ohm is wrapped in a steel plate.

A cooler 3 having a capacity of 170 W is installed at a position corresponding to the opening 13 of the ceiling 12 of the storage main body, and as shown in FIG. It is provided so as to project, and when the outside air is 16 ° C. to 30 ° C., the air temperature in the refrigerator 1 is lowered to the range of 5 ° C. to 15 ° C. The evaporator 4 is provided on a gentle slope, and a dew tray 5 is attached below the lower end portion thereof.
Further, the water received by the dew receiving tray 5 is guided under the bottom surface by the drain hose 6 and reaches the lower receiving tray 7.

Inside the storage 1, there is a drainboard 8, and a brown rice bag 9 made of paper containing 30 kg of brown rice is placed on the drainboard 8.
Along the width of the door openings 11 on the left and right, two rows are arranged side by side in five rows. It should be noted that a space is provided between each bag 9, 9 ... Then, when the temperature in the refrigerator 1 was set to 12 ° C. and the operation was started under the outside air temperature of 30 ° C., the temperature of the rice in the bag became 12 ° C. after about 50 hours. Brown rice may be stored at a temperature lower than 5 ° C, but 5 ° C was the lower limit in terms of cost efficiency. When the brown rice temperature exceeded 16 ° C, carbon dioxide was generated and the quality of the brown rice was deteriorated. However, at 15 ° C or lower, this hardly occurred.

The results of the taste test using the panel were evaluated to significantly decrease after October, when the brown rice was stored at room temperature, but in comparison with this, there was almost no deterioration in taste.
