Abstract

To surely and easily obtain the kimch (Korean pickles) of an optimum fermentation state by housing a kimch into a vessel, arranging this vessel into a thermally insulating casing, detecting the fermentation state of the kimch by a detecting section and controlling a cooling section and a heating section by the detection signal thereof. The casing 10 which has an opening/closing door 18 and is formed with a thermally insulating section 13 on its inside surface is provided with the cooling section 14 in its upper position and the heating section 15 in its lower position. The fermented kimch is housed into the vessel 2 and a cap is put on the vessel. The vessel is then arranged in the casing 10. The vessel 2 is provided with the detecting section 3 which detects the concn. of org. acid, carbon dioxide, etc., generated at the time of fermentation. The vessel is then heated to the optimum fermentation temp. by the heating section 15, by which the fermentation is started. The fermentation state is thereafter detected by the detecting section 3. When the optimum fermentation state is attained, the operation of the heating section 15 is stopped and the cooling section 14 is operated to switch the operation to refrigeration by a control section according to the signal supplied from the detecting section 3.

Description

Fermentation sensor for making korean cabbage with chilli in refrigerator

The present invention relates to make the fermentation gas sensor of Korean Cabbage in Chili Sauce (hereinafter to be referred as Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour) with refrigerator; More particularly, relate to a kind of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container upper inner in refrigerator, be provided with fermentation gas sensing element, can directly experience the fermentation sensor of the best yeastiness of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour.

The basic function of making cabbage with chilli in refrigerator is: make Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour slaking, fermentation in the Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container, when fermenting to optimum state, stuck fermentation also is converted to refrigeration, so that keep best yeastiness for a long time.

Made the refrigerator that Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour is used in the past, time and the temperature best yeastiness of experiencing Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour indirectly according to fermentation, but the shortcoming of this indirect feeling way is can not experience Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour with its quantity and kind and different best yeastiness, and whether fermentation is all carried out equably.

The optimum condition of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour fermentation is that its fermentation temperature is remained on 15 ℃ ± 3 ℃, in order to make all fermentations equably of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour, must make the interior temperature maintenance of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container in poised state, under this condition, when the maturing process at Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour process initial stage reaches best yeastiness, must be converted to frozen state preserves, and the sort of in the past indirect feeling way, be that fermentation time and temperature according to accumulative total detects best yeastiness, so can not correctly experience the state that carries out of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour different whole fermentation with its quantity and kind.

The present invention has considered all problems of existing in the above-mentioned mode in the past to aim to provide a kind of fermentation sensor, and the gas that this sensor is produced in the time of experiencing fermentation carries out the most actively to make it to be converted to frozen state when (best yeastiness) in fermentation.

Fig. 1 is a summary construction diagram of making cabbage with chilli in refrigerator.

Fig. 2 makes the Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container main portion to amplify sectional view among the present invention.

Below, be described with reference to the accompanying drawings most preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Fig. 1 represents Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container 2 is placed on state in the refrigerator 1.As shown in Figure 1, in refrigerator 1 body 11 that the making Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour is used, be provided with the heat insulating member 13 that forms storeroom 12, upper and lower position at this heat insulating member 13, be respectively equipped with cooling-part 14 and heater block 15, in above-mentioned storeroom 12, be provided with lattice plate 16, above-mentioned Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container 2 is placed on this lattice plate.

As shown in Figure 2, in order to make 2 sealings of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container, between buffer storge vat 21 and bung 22, be provided with sealing gasket 22a.In order to collect fermentation gas, formation conical surface 22b on above-mentioned bung 22.On the fixed part 22c at above-mentioned bung 22 middle parts, fixing the fixed part 24a of handle 24 bottoms.Sensing element 23 is installed in the handle 24.Sensing element 23 by in the feeder 24b that is located at handle 24, lead 23a stretch toward outside sensing element 23b and be located at feeder 24b bottom, form in order to the cleaner 25 of protection sensing element 23b.

The terminal of lead 23a is provided with binding post, and (not shown) is used for linking to each other with control section on the body.

In addition, 17 among the figure is compressor, and 18 is refrigerator doors, and k is a Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour.

Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour k to be fermented is put into buffer storge vat 21, add bung 22 and seal.After the terminal connection post of lead 23a is connected to the control section (not shown) of the storeroom 12 that is arranged on refrigerator, can ferment.During fermentation, the heater block 15 that is located at heat insulating member 13 bottoms rises the temperature of storeroom 12, and remains on about 25 ℃ that are suitable for the quick fermentation of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour k.

Mode in the past, be fermentation to be stopped by the working time that limits heater block 15, and in the present invention, be the gas that produces when utilizing sensing element 23b to experience Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour K fermentation, be the concentration of carbohydrate such as organic acid, carbon dioxide, thereby judge best yeastiness and pass to control section, according to this signal, heater block 15 quits work, compressor 17 begins out work, the temperature inversion that makes storeroom 12 is 0 ℃-1 ℃, and this freezing point temperature is that the best storage of the Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour that fermented keeps temperature.

The sensing element that detects the ripe degree usefulness of Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour is to be developed by Department of Food Engineering of South Korea Seoul agricultural university in 1987.

The gases that produce in the Tian jin cabbage pickled in sweet and sour container 2 gather sensing element 23b along the conical surface 22b of bung 22, so just can correctly experience yeastiness.In the bottom of sensing element 23b, be provided with cleaner 25, be used to the damage and the misoperation that prevent in the foreign matter inflow feeder 24b and avoid causing sensor 23b because of pollution.Because bung 22 opens and closes at any time, so preferably have another not with sensing element 23b and lead 23a's and can be fixed on handle on the fixed part 22c of bung 22, under the storage state after fermentation is finished, replace the handle 24 that has sensing element 23b and lead 23a with it.

More than explanation only is one embodiment of the present of invention, just for the present invention is described, does not limit the intention of the technology of the present invention scope, therefore needs to understand, and the various similar embodiment of Dao Chuing are neither therefrom exceeds technical scope of the present invention.
