Description

The method and the device of cutting and deep-fried food ingredient

The present invention is the method and the device of relevant cutting and deep-fried food ingredient.More particularly the present invention is in order to the vegetables that especially resemble potato and so on, also can be applicable to the auto slice of other similar edible materials and fry method and device.

Below speak of relevant " potato crispy chip " and refer to quite thin potato block (being generally the 1-2 millimeter) and immerse in the suitable deep fat fully or cooking adequate time, make and not only boil fully and wholely become crisp.Be illustrated at this for avoiding confusion, the so-called POTATO CRISPS(of American potato crispy chip) is commonly referred to as " P.O TATO CHIPS " in the U.S., but the American alleged " FRENCH-FRIED POTATOS(chips) then be called " CHIPS " in Britain; so do not mix up between the two, because the section of " CHIPS " is square but not sheet.

At present, the potato crispy chip of being sold on English market is with large-scale commercial run and makes, and does not have a culinary art that is applied to family.The basic prepared product that is thought of as of potato crispy chip that industry is made must be can have excellent storage character to make crisp can pack at an easy rate, distribution normally, and have long placing the time on the shelf in the shop, can be in several week endometamorphisms.This consideration must make the product bone dry.For reaching bone dry, just need to precook and the two kinds of operations that boil, this becomes very impracticable concerning family scale.

Therefore, the manufacturing of industrial potato crispy chip has following restrictive condition to material and method:

(A) potato must have low sugar composition (generally must be lower than 0.25%), because higher sugared content can make crisp to be in variable color under the required high temperature (seeing following explanation), also has not good smell of scorching simultaneously;

(B) potato must be stored at 9 degree Celsius above (Fahrenheit 48 degree), and part is separated out because low temperature impels sugar;

(C) potato block must clean with drying potato block when removing lip-deep starch and avoid frying in section and the time between frying and stick together;

(D) part of general nearly 1.55 millimeters thick of potato block of selling on the market is livings, and can produce the phenomenon that swells when frying, because vapour bubble occupy and swells between limit and its opposite side, the quality that just can reduce product like this; And

(E) potato block is dipped in and fries in the oil under the temperature that reached 185 degree Celsius at least (Fahrenheit 365 degree) in about four minutes; The time of frying must carefully be controlled to reach bone dry does not have the situation of burning, and Yin Gaowen increases the risk of too frying or burning, and under any circumstance heat produces a large amount of graveolent deep fat steams, and this is that home environment is unacceptable.

With respect to the condition of the industrial making method of strictness, family potato crispy chip method for making should meet following standard ideally:

(1) anyly easily available be suitable for the potato that family uses and use (no matter its condition of storage why), that is to say that sugar content should be unessential (its restriction be the raw potato pieces sugar that should adhere to and can't decompose part);

(2) section answers mechanization must manually not go the processing of skill with knife with the potato block that produces homogeneous;

(3) cleaning of potato block should be omitted with dry operation, otherwise just will manually do and lose time under the situation of not using machine (must be complicated);

(4) time of frying should reduce to minimum so that crisp risk is burnt in elimination, and it is minimum that the oil flavor is reduced to, and

(5) except the temperature of frying can reduce to minimum, the time of frying also can reduce as much as possible, reduce and to delay and avoid the consumer impatient, but be noted that simultaneously the time of frying should not calculate too accurately, to avoid causing problem in the quality control because of error regularly; For example, because the potato difference of using, the best time of frying is just different, but the cook always dislikes for this variation, maybe can't determine this species diversity.Even, if being picked up from oil when the process of frying finishes, the part of a potato crispy chip or a potato crispy chip do not cause accepting again frying for the second time, crisp that fries twice should not be burnt or be become not edible.Best, when long or even undetermined tediously long fry would not make crisp rotten.

The family equipment of knowing of frying is external heat formula or inner heated type pot, fills oil and is equipped with the Demountable metallic basket with netting on top to pick up the food that exploded.This equipment is commonly used to fried quite thick potato ball to make chips (Britain's person " CHIPS ", U.S.'s person " FRENCH FRIES ").It is crisp that this chips only have the quite thin epidermis of one deck mostly.But the equipment of this class does not conform to the manufacturing that is suitable for family potato crispy chip, because thin raw potato pieces must be cleaned one by one with dry, and must a slice a slice put into oil cauldron respectively to avoid together adhering to each other, so the difference of the time of frying has taken place in way at once.More very, just if after several seconds half-mature potato block floating do not note just causing to pasta only have one side to fry.Event must be pressed in the oil or frequent turn-over is all fried to guarantee the two sides.Therefore the equipment of knowing does not conform to and is suitable for the semi-automatic of potato crispy chip or fries fully automatically.

A kind of section and fried method are arranged, be suggested with the machine of packing potato crispy chip and applied for a patent.The machine of this prior art is essentially a big oil groove and constitutes run-track shaped ring for no reason.Deep fat is subjected to pressures cycle formula ground and does continuous flowing in ring.One potato chipper drops into raw potato pieces in the oil stream off and on, and potato block is just being supported in oil stream randomly.All uncontrollable through the most position of any potato block of frying after the process.After uncertain a period of time, the potato block through frying just is sent from the end of machine.This machine is claimed as can make quantitative potato crispy chip, but in fact its quantity is by the starting point that is essentially continuous process and stops to determine.If compare with the present invention, it is one group of cooker that the machine of this prior art should not calculated.The machine of prior art lacks continuously and correctly controls the position of potato block fully, and key property of the present invention is to be effectively to control section and to fry the situation of the beginning and the end of process.Moreover, the machine of prior art is to be installed on the floor, family crisp manufacturing device than arbitrary practicality is all big and heavy, the machine of prior art is the commercial use that specialized designs is applied to fast food restaurant, and family's indoor location is different easily to be applicable to general kitchen or other with special design of the present invention.

So a purpose of the present invention is for providing a cutting and the method and apparatus of fry to eliminate or to alleviate above-mentioned shortcoming.Though main purpose of the present invention is particularly suitable for family manufacturing potato crispy chip for providing, but the present invention also has a purpose for a method and apparatus itself or additional accessory or modification (please according to producing the thick decision of different sheets) are provided, with cutting and fried other edible materials, such as the vegetables that are different from potato, fruit and dough/pasta.Concerning dough/pasta, dough/pasta that has mixed finely and do not cooked can rolling or is formed a thin slice, and its thickness is fit to fry into crisp and needn't be in advance with the thickness attenuation; When making of this dough/pasta, the section earlier before frying of regular shape that is of moderate size or irregular dough/pasta is sent in the equipment of frying again, then just can be without the section portion in slicing mechanism or the machine, or these slicing mechanisms are removed fully.Suitable dough mixture is by wheat, corn, Tapioca starch, or the flour that constitutes of other food starch shape materials (or mixture of these compositions) is formed and can be added spices and/or colouring matter.Can compete very much through factory's manufacturing and market sale by the fragility consumable products that this dough mixture constitutes with traditional potato crispy chip.

The title of using in the present disclosure " edible materials " be included in before the cooking as edible with cook before edible but cook into the brittle prod edible not.Made by the present invention crisp or brittle prod can have nutritive value or not have a nutritive value, are generally good to eat biscuit and get final product.

According to a first aspect of the invention, it provides the method for a kind of cutting with deep-fried food ingredient, the step that comprises is not cleaned and undried edible materials sheet for being shaped, these sheet edible materials are sent into respectively in the heat cooking oil groove according to the number of packets that limits, this cooking oil remains on one and is not less than minimum temperature and the temperature under the topnotch temperature that an edible materials can burn that can fry, make edible materials fry in the time and can keep its quality in minimum necessity, thereby the surface of each sheet can be exploded firmly, and can be not adhering to each other or be attached on the cooking device in the next stage of the cooking, so when these edible materials sheets float to pasta thereon or are about to float to pasta because of vapour bubble forms, just it firmly is immersed in a period of time in the oil, make situation about frying can reach consistent fragility fully, crisp that will fry at last picks up and divides and install.

No matter whether the section of edible materials belongs to the part of cutting and frying method, the edible materials sheet of the not cooking is immersed the preparation that can be considered Main Stage in the cooking method in the heat cooking oil in advance, so the edible materials sheet of giving birth to is prepared or anticipated, make the surface of edible materials sheet can explode and driedly in frying Main Stage or correlation procedure, stick together each other and/or be bonded on the equipment of frying to eliminate each edible materials sheet.Begin fashion when not cutting into slices at edible materials, the step that cutting and fried method also comprise is for being cut into a bulk of edible materials respectively the edible materials sheet of restricted number, at once these sections are sent into then in this heat cooking oil, the mode of preferably sending into falls into the specific part of oil groove under gravity for each person that just do not cut into slices.The upper limit of the edible materials sheet number of each group can or calculate according to experience, and the material that will fry, the size of oil groove (and temperature perhaps also is), and the function of the probability of an acceptable nothing adhesion, the words that need also can be listed the temporal differences factor of frying in, this variance factor depends on that first of this group edible materials sheet and last sheet fall into the time between the oil groove, make the total variation fry the time for accepting, for example look it with the acceptable quality variation of the whole product of frying fully when the packing.The size that can find best group in the preferred embodiment (being specified in down) of the present invention is six to nine, but among other the embodiment every group more sheet number is then arranged.If reducing, the sheet number in each group that desire will be fried and handle is lower than the upper limit of respectively organizing the sheet number to reduce throughput rate (unit interval on average fry sheet number).

Cross full wafer fries consistency of product completely with enhancement to the thickness of each sheet with preferably remaining unchanged really, but the adjustment that every thickness also can making a plan property, so that can produce the product completely of frying of different qualities.No doubt each sheet can be cut into plane (just with flat blade or have the identical function cutter cut), also can be cut into non-planar (for example, wavy or so-called " the crape ripple is cut ").Howsoever, can make preferably during section that in fact the thickness characteristics of each sheet can not change to some extent, to promote the uniformity of product quality.(size of the profile of each sheet and/or shape can change, and for example when potato flakes, but because the thickness of each sheet is fried the factor of feature for decision, do not have substantial influence as for the change of the horizontal size of each sheet to frying method).To apply to the specific examples of the method that potato crispy chip produces, the best thickness of a slice raw potato is about 1 millimeter, is that an optimum value can not expand and division because of blocked up causing, and does not cause shape defect cracked because of thin excessively.

Minimum Yu the highest aforesaid actual value of frying oil temperature mainly or fully depends on the specific edible materials of frying.For the particular case that potato crispy chip is made, the potato block of tool high levels of sugars part reaches in dark fried temperature just can variable color more than 175 degree Celsius (Fahrenheit 347 degree).When frying, find to fry oil and keep being no more than 175 degree Celsius, best situation is for being no more than and being not less than 165 degree Celsius (Fahrenheit 329 degree) to the scope of 5 degree Celsius approximately (Fahrenheit 9 degree), potato flakes (about 1 millimeter of thickness) can be fried very desirablely, make to have enough mass dryness fractions and to have good crisp and color, fry to reduce the oil flavor but not industry is made potato block and needed carry out with higher temperature with 165 degree approximately Celsius.Though find also that simultaneously frying potato crispy chip only needs the 75-120 time of second, the time of frying when Celsius 175 spend can continue 15 minutes under the situation of not burning, can be more longer in the 165 degree times of frying Celsius.This point and industry make fry potato crispy chip temperature higher be convenient to cause fry excessive with burn phenomenon and have significantly different.

Moreover, find temperature maintenance with oil groove at 165 degree Celsius with regard to the frying this point and each stage of potato crispy chip from frying, the potato block of 1 millimeters thick falls and can sink to the bottom in the oil groove and rest on the about 5-10 in bottom second.So just produce vapour bubble (being easy to produce steam bubble) on the potato block surface because of not carrying out the drying processing in advance, just floating then to the oil groove face, on the oil groove face, can keep again about 30-45 second.So can make each sheet surface fried hard, it mean surface starch on each sheet can fry make between each sheet no longer adhering to each other or stick on the equipment of frying.Fried hard process makes potato block experience the Main Stage of frying, and it comprises approximately at least 30 seconds immersing fully, but the best time of immersing fully is about 35-55 second.As mentioned above, the process of always frying of potato crispy chip continues about 75-120 second, but can extend the quite a while again and without detriment to the quality of last potato crispy chip.

According to a second aspect of the invention, the equipment of cutting and deep-fried food ingredient is provided, it comprises the oil groove that a splendid attire heat is fried oil, with in the oil groove fry that oil maintains on the minimum temperature that can fry and make for a moment the required shortest time of frying of edible materials burn destroy or rotten maximum temperature under heater, with the edible materials sheet respectively in one group one group mode with the edible materials sheet of the quantity that limits without cleaning the conveyer of sending into this oil groove with undried ground, in the normal use of equipment, will float edible materials sheet to the pasta and be pressed in the oil one period scheduled time and will explode at last that each sheet picks up and the edible materials sheet processor of packing.

If edible materials begins not cut into slices as yet, this equipment also should comprise food slicer or have this function and can in order edible materials be sliced into consistency of thickness, and with each sheet without clean with undried send in this oil groove.This equipment preferably includes controller and cuts out each sheet group that the sheet number does not exceed predetermined number to control this food slicer.This food slicer is one to have the section cutting tool of the rotation of one or more blades, the angle (this angle can be more than one commentaries on classics) that this controller preferably can make this rotation section cutting tool rotation one be scheduled to makes blade to carry out the section number of times identical with this predetermined number sheet at the edible materials of not section.Wherein this rotation section cutting tool is the dish of cutting with three blades, is six edible materials sheet group for one group but cut the dish just cutting that takes two turns, but changes then nine one group of the cutting of three circles.

In this equipment, comprise food slicer as the aforementioned, thus preferably can carry as yet not the edible materials of section to food slicer, and the conveyer of carrying with constant speed really.With this food slicer is the particular case of a rotation section cutting tool, conveyer preferably includes guide screw silk cooperation and rotates with the rotation section cutting tool in a synchronous manner, the guide screw silk is to compel to send device to connect so that can positively the edible materials of not cutting into slices be compeled to deliver to the rotation section cutting tool with positive power, the linear ratio of number of times of blade unit interval crosscut edible materials of its speed of compeling to send and rotation section cutting tool, the speed (comprising static situation) of arbitrary operation of rotation the section cutting tool feature of the thickness homogeneous of formed each sheet edible materials down are irrelevant with the speed that section produces.Positive power is compeled to send device preferably to have plunger cooperation guide screw silk and is operated by a guiding nut that constitutes a plunger part, plunger moves along a guide rail, and the edible materials that restriction is not laterally cut into slices is advanced to the path of the direction of rotation section cutting tool, and the feasible not section edible materials that is arranged in this guide rail of this plunger and this rotation section cutting tool can positively compel to deliver to the rotation food slicer with proportional linear velocity when the entire equipment device uses.Guiding nut preferably can separate with the guide screw silk automatically, makes plunger move along guide rail fully, for example reaches the part that guide screw silk screw thread no longer continues by guiding nut and reaches this operation.This guiding nut is preferably the nut of the formula of splitting, it can be flexibly be biased to and the guide screw silk can be clamped, this plunger preferably includes the bias voltage balancer, the formula nut can be with the bias voltage balance of manually-operated bias voltage balancer with its electing property so that split, the formula nut that splits can be separated with the guide screw silk in arbitrary selected time, the most place or any other the selected time that cause plunger left-hand tools section cutting tool direction to be advanced are located to be return by guide rail, thereby the not edible materials of section in guide rail can be fetched or replenish.

Edible materials sheet processor in the equipment of a second aspect of the present invention can comprise one spoonful of part or slurry part, be preferably in this spoonful part or starch part and be provided with a plurality of through holes, the size of this through hole in fact must be less than the widthwise size of general edible materials sheet, makes to fry oil and can then can't pass through by these through hole edible materials sheets; With spoon spare or slurry part driver, this driver can be collected together in order to the edible materials sheet group that driving spoon part or slurry part will newly explode, and should organize edible materials sheet compregnate and go into a period of time in the hot frying oil, make the edible materials sheet can reach the degree of homogeneous embrittlement in this section period, and the edible materials sheet that each can be exploded at last picks up from fry oil and these edible materials sheets that exploded of packing, preferably use the mode compel to send with these fry the edible materials sheet from this equipment send and put on the plate respectively, on the plate or on the bowl.Spoon part or slurry part driver preferably make the edible materials sheet that is subjected to compregnate immerse from the portion of hot in the oil groove of accepting not fried edible materials sheet and fry oil, can accept afterwards edible materials sheet group again so that the heat of other parts is fried oil.

Spoon part or slurry part driver can be used so that spoon part or slurry part can move with a vertical combination back and forth in level, just exploding good edible materials sheet with the position set of the edible materials sheet that floats when it is admitted to oil groove, be sent to the edible materials sheet by the oil groove of another part of compregnate via another level with vertical mobile combination then, locate these edible materials sheets by this and explode good edible materials sheet packing place by one group of continuous level and mobile the delivering to that makes progress once more, driver moves to actuation cycle with spoon spare or slurry part again and finishes part and make spoonful part or slurry part repetitive operation circulation, to handle next group edible materials sheet.Spoon part or slurry part are preferably in can the one side that has the direction of moving horizontally at the oil groove apical margin or on the surface of oil groove apical margin at least in this level and the vertical combination that moves around, guiding surface with a pair of in fact level, on two differing heights, conveniently change, and spoon part or slurry part place the both sides and the binding of these guiding surfaces of spoonful part or slurry part respectively with a guiding moving member at the two ends that move horizontally.After being started, this driver just can flatly make spoonful part or slurry part do to move around, the guiding moving member is done the vertical mobile of necessity and is made the guiding shifter parade along the guiding surface of differing heights according to moving horizontally direction with causing spoonful part or slurry part with conversion therebetween with the interaction between the guiding surface, this driver is to be subjected to off and on so that at each action compartment spoonful part or slurry part are remained on the desired position in the method for frying, and the time in necessity can move in two these desired position intercropping, thereby these edible materials sheets can cooperate the restricted or conversion of the method for frying.This conversion each other to the guiding surface of real standard can be carried out on the surface tool identical function, on a cam, and this cam is between this oil groove and this driver, and this guiding shifter is a cam follower.Can obtain can maintaining on the relative higher position when spoonful part or slurry part move horizontally on the one hand by cam follower (or machinery etc. establish part) and the formed interaction of between the horizontal guide surface of upper surface by cam (or machinery etc. establish part), when spoon spare or slurry part along oil groove bottom (on function for substituting aforesaid horizontal guiding surface down) and remain on this place and carry out just can maintaining when other direction moves horizontally on the relatively lower position.

Oil groove generally can be rectangular flat shape, and driver can be attached to spoonful part or slurry part, and can tensile elongation but the flexible belt of side direction tool provides level to move around by two, one end parts of this two strap is connected to the corresponding sides of spoonful part or slurry part, the other end then be connected on wheel hub or the belt wheel and roll of tape on wheel hub or belt wheel, make spoonful part or slurry part do necessary moving horizontally by wheel hub or belt wheel to the rotation of a direction or another direction.

But this oil groove is preferably the flat shape of arc, and it is the heart and the mobile component of making circular level under the constant situation of a radius that spoon part or slurry part then are actually vertical axle with one.Driver can comprise one driven and around a vertical axis as arc move around the axle, this driver is to link with spoon spare or slurry part, and be pivoted to this and move around around the level that the axis that this arm spare is risen or descend is made arc by one, this guiding moving member or cam follower are contained on the arm spare, so that the rise and fall of arm spare corresponding to the angular displacement of arm spare and the angle moving direction of arm spare, consequently cause spoonful part or slurry part to do necessary vertically moving back and forth.

Both are preferably controlled edible materials sheet conveyer and spoon part or slurry part driver (or other edible materials sheet processors) by controller, the synchronization job that responds mutually with each stage work that cuts the edible materials sheet and fry so that can cooperatively interact.This equipment can possess the control that a reversible electronic rotation motor is subjected to this controller, this motor connects a gear-box and more than one one-way clutch to drive edible materials conveyer (comprising guide screw silk and rotation section cutting tool) and spoon part or slurry part driver (or other edible materials sheet processors), gear-box is provided with mechanical linkage and the interior different part connection of each function of this equipment, so that these different pieces reach synchronous operation.Another kind of mode is for can be provided with the control that two electro-motors are subjected to this controller, one of this two electro-motor can be via corresponding reduction gearing in operation links with this edible materials sheet conveyer, another electro-motor then can via corresponding reduction gearing with a crank mechanism and with this edible materials sheet processor binding.Because edible materials sheet conveyer is generally uniaxially and is driven, and because crank mechanism can be designed to make under the situation that corresponding electro-motor does not reverse edible materials sheet processor to do necessary reverse, two electro-motors just can normally be made one-directional rotation and must not do reverse rotation.

This equipment preferably is arranged to and can automatically repeats to comprise shaping, fries and handle the operation cycle of one group of edible materials sheet, so that also can continue the operation of long period simultaneously in the operation of frying the less group of sheet number of short time.

In the equipment of a second aspect of the present invention, the also rotatable mode of edible materials sheet processor is carried out, and it is different with general linearity of using (back and forth) or above-mentioned arc implementations.Be provided with the preparation of rotation edible materials sheet processor with fry that enclosing cover bottom that oil groove in the equipment is preferably in cylindrical or frustoconical has a level or near the axis of level, oil is to be contained in the central cylindrical shape of enclosing cover and coaxial line or the hollow space between the frustoconical wheel hub when operation, the oar spare combination that is made of the oar spare of angular distances such as a plural number is located on the wheel hub, so that rotate around this wheel hub, all oar spares are divided into a plurality of compartments with this hollow space, when oar spare combination rotation, these compartments just move around hollow space, section and conveyer are in order to send into the edible materials sheet in one compartment, during operation when originally normal oil mass being housed, the position of this compartment not exclusively is full of fries oil, the part that causes the combination of this oar spare to be done because of the angular displacement of a compartment is progressively rotated the linearity and the collection of arc implementations and the program of immersing of having carried out aforesaid equipment, the part of more than one incoming oar spare combination progressively rotate make this compartment move to pasta above and with oil droplet down and packing explode edible materials sheet well.The part of blade combination is progressively rotated, and preferably can move with the operation synchronous interaction of section that comes in succession and conveyer, makes around the operation of frying of the each of hollow space edible materials sheet group next every carrying out one by one in succession.Therefore, arbitrary time of ongoing operation, will carry out a step in cutting and the fried all steps around each compartment of hollow space.The same as collinearity with the arc situation, revolving situation preferably has a common controller and an electric drive motor (or two electric drive motors) and suitable cooperating, with the part of the various difference in functionalitys that link this equipment and the correct period of guaranteeing its corresponding each operation.In the revolving situation, section can be identical with linear case with conveyer, but can be set as bigger or less size and its basic function is can not change.Cutting and frying apparatus with rotary be in, it prepares to be actually identical with the manufacture method of frying and the cutting of linearity and the manufacture method of frying apparatus.

Lower cover 16 be by as with heat resistanceheat resistant and shock proof condensate single of being molded as of trade mark for " POCAN " or " PROCOM " marketing.Lower cover 16 can prevent that except supporting laminate 12 personnel from unexpectedly contacting with the heat of oil groove 14 is outside, and has the function (not expression in detail in Fig. 1) of the safe barriers around electrical equipment and the mechanical organ.

Oil groove 14 is the major part with the function fried of crisp manufacturing device 10, therefore will be specified at Fig. 2 to Fig. 8.Oil groove 14 is that aluminium alloy " LM6 " forms via single compression moulding, or forms via metal stamping.Have a flat underside 22(to see Fig. 2 in the shape of oil groove 14) and nearly vertical sidewall, but 24 of antethecas are by dull and stereotyped 22 upwards and extend out to the preceding lip 26 that tool is rolled, and other wall portion then is nearly vertical shape.The inner face of oil groove base plate 22 is one-body molded to have a passage 28(who is seen as U-shaped by the plane to see Fig. 4).Passage 28 fixings one electric heating element heater 30(Fig. 1), this heating element heater 30 is made of the resistance metal line of an outer lining heat resistanceheat resistant insulating part 34 and coating protection sheath spare 36.During crisp manufacturing device operation, electric heating element heater 30 is just fried the oily required temperature range that keeps because of energising makes in oil groove 14.The measurement of temperature can be obtained by the electro-hot regulator in the hole 38 that is contained in the protuberance 40 that is molded to the oil groove inner face or other Temperature Detectors (not drawing among the figure).

Two walls of oil groove 14 all have a pair of horizontal protuberance 42 and 44, and they are highly different ( protuberance 42 and 44 purpose and function will explain below).Level protuberance 42(Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 down of each sidewall) by flatly stretching out to the front of oil groove 14 at the back side of oil groove 14, the bending of its protuberance 42 is upwards to be parallel to the slope that antetheca 24 makes progress.Just be bent to the straight below at oil groove 14 edges at protuberance 44 places then; Its general shape of expression among Fig. 2, the cut-away section that amplifies then is shown among Fig. 8.

Front by oil groove 14 goes to the back, can see that the last protuberance 42 of going up protuberance 44(two side is all with high) inclination and the width that arrives is zero at point 46 and between putting 48.Last protuberance 44 all the other width at the edge of the oil groove 14 at co-altitude place then are the placement location of a liner 50, and this liner is used so that oil groove 14 can be sealed in the inner face of laminate 12, as shown in Figure 1.

Having of oil groove 14 be narrowed to width be zero on the rear portion at protuberance 44 places be illustrated in the cutaway view among Fig. 5 (V-V along the line is dissectd among Fig. 3).

Oil groove 14 have protuberance 42 and 44 and in the middle part that its corresponding differing heights level is stretched out the place is illustrated in cutaway view among Fig. 6 (VI-VI along the line is dissectd among Fig. 3).

Protuberance 42 and 44 is combined into locates beginning again when protracting together, and just wall 24 is acclivitous in front of no longer most ofly tilts for both.It is illustrated in the cutaway view (VII-VII along the line is dissectd among Fig. 3) of Fig. 7.The protuberance 42 that combines and 44 that is inclined upwardly continues to become to inclination the teat of laminate 12, sees Fig. 9 and particularly Figure 10, adds following relevant narration.

Oil groove 14 is fixed on following (Fig. 3 and 4) of laminate 12 by the carriage of four perforation by screw (not drawing among the figure).

Fig. 9 represents that other assembly branches with laminate 12 and crisp manufacturing device 10 come and forms plane into discrete item.The general profile of laminate 12 is straight " U " shape, and oil groove 14 is contained under the opening of " U " shape (see figure 1) and rolls 26 of lips across the top " U " shape.

Foot's inner edge of foot's free end of laminate 12 is set as protuberance 54, and it is the ground (see figure 1) continuously that is inclined upwardly of the following teat 42 on the sidewall of oil groove 14.These protuberances 54 are shown in the part vertical section (along line X-X of Fig. 9) of Fig. 9 and Figure 10.

" U " shape deep of laminate 12 is that the center line of a circular depressions 56 and laminate 12 does not line up. Narrow track 58 and 60 leaves recess 56 with tangential direction, does a bending then smoothly with along with the path of the two-phase respective side direction that is parallel to each other of oil groove 14 and extend (when combining just as shown in Figure 1).58 in passage is illustrated in the vertical cross section (XI-XI along the line cuts off among Fig. 9) of Figure 11 especially.Below will describe passage 58 in detail and 60 side direction have flexible support and guiding function, vertically then for the flexible band of tool (not drawing among Fig. 9 or 11) not with the one spoonful of part that in oil groove, moves around.These bands are linked to (during use) drum part (not drawing among Fig. 9), this drum spare is the angular displacement of doing in groove 56 back and forth, and makes reverse drive (drum part and driving mechanism thereof will in the following detailed explanation of doing) by of integrated hollow axle bush 62 who extends to groove 56 centers vertically upward.

Consult Figure 12 and 13 now, this two figure represents to become separately and respectively the loam cake 18 of crisp manufacturing device 10 of an assembly.Figure 12 is the vertical section along the longitudinal midline of loam cake 18 (corresponding to Fig. 1), and Figure 13 is the plan view (being similar to the plan view of the laminate 12 of Fig. 9) of loam cake 18.

The general profile (seeing Figure 13) of loam cake 18 is identical with laminate 12, both do not exist together and are " U " shape (see figure 9) for laminate 12, rather than only engage stretching loam cake 18(Figure 13)), in order to lateral groove portion with oil groove lip 26 tops in order to cover oil groove 14(fully when being combined into the situation of Fig. 1.Loam cake 18 is to be bonded into copulational protuberance by placing on the laminate 12 with the end face of laminate 12 downwards with laminate 12 combination the time, and preferably fixes with quick pine oil door bolt part.

Loam cake 18 central one-body molded have a vertical hollow slideway 64 under loam cake 18 the space and above the back of oil groove 14, locate (, seeing Fig. 1) just facing to the oil groove end of lip 26.Slideway 64 has the interior section (seeing Figure 13) of a sub-elliptical, and its size is the stripping that can hold the common size potato of skin excessively.Because slideway 64(is in use) have the function (situation can illustrate in detail) of the guiding piece of force feed mechanism in conveying and slicing mechanism 20, its inner face is actually parallel and interior section and remains unchanged on whole slideway.

Force feed mechanism comprises cup-shaped hollow piston 66(Fig. 1 and Figure 14-17 of a vertical slip of (see figure 1) do in slideway 64).Lower surface 68(Figure 14 of piston 66) be interior section with slideway 64 cooperatively interact (relatively Figure 17 and Figure 13) with the shape of the outer section in the skirt section 70 of one.Piston 66 is by making piston 66 vertical driving in slideway 64 with its downward active force that extends laterally part 72 of integrally combining of upper end.

Piston extension 72 outwards stretches into contour elongated slot 74 in the back wall of slideway 64 from slideway 64.(elongated slot 74 is represented very clear at Figure 13, and the elongated slot 74 that stretches into of piston extension 72 is represented very clear in Fig. 1).

Just Fig. 1,12 and 13 is seen with loam cake 18 integrated vertical spindle bearing 76(in 74 back sides of the elongated slot in slideway 64).Bearing 76 can support a vertical axle 78 to rotate.The outer surface of the lower end of axle 78 is level and smooth, so that can do freely to rotate in bearing 76, and the situation that a shoulder 80 restriction axles 78 of one move up bottom axle as shown in Figure 1.When crisp manufacturing device 10 is assembled into the planform in its when operation (Fig. 1), axle 78 move down be by with laminate 12 integrated upper convex portion 82 restrictions (seeing Fig. 1 and 9).

The top of axle 78, the part of just stretching out bearing 76 tops usually is provided with the effect that screw thread 84 has driving screw.A pair of protuberance 86(Figure 14-17 as clamp-shaped on piston extension 72) end has corresponding 1/4th internal threads 88 that screw togather right-handed thread 84 respectively.When axle 78 when being seen as counter rotation from top to bottom, the screw thread 84 of driving screw with can order about piston 66 screwing togather of the part internal thread of protuberance 86 ends and vertically move down at slideway 64 places.Being guided of piston 66 is protuberance (seeing Figure 13) by means of elongated slot 74 edges, these protuberances again be located at piston extension 72 and engage (seeing Figure 15 and 17) with the elongated slot 90 that engages at 70 places of joining, piston skirt.

Till the rotation of axle 78 (no matter continue to rotate or intermittently rotate) will be ordered about piston 66 and is moved down into the bottom that part screw thread 88 falls into driving screw screw thread 84 along slideway 64, just axle 78 enter bearing 76 places above the discontinuous (see figure 1) of a small distance is arranged.In this end (or piston 66 other any a moment of selecting for use when moving down), by simultaneously with manually inwardly execute a pressure supporting protuberance 86 last extension 92 upper end (seeing Figure 16) and shake part screw thread 88 and it radially do not screwed togather with the screw thread 84 of driving screw piston 66 is not engaged with the screw thread 84 of driving screw.So piston 66 upwards can be lifted from slideway 64, allow slideway 64 can send into another potato again.

Consult Fig. 1 again, have section dish 94 usefulness one nut 96 of a circle to be fixed and attached to the bottom of axle 78 against axle shoulder 80.Section dish 94 has a centre bore 98(Figure 18) in order to axle 78 bondings so that both rotate.Section disk 94 is with the stainless steel substrates punch forming, sees that by the plan view of Figure 18 this section disk 94 has the curved slicer 100 of angular separation such as three.Be provided with three arm shape casting dies 102 in the middle of these three slicers 100, to increase the rigidity of section disk 94, so that when operation, section disk 94 can not be out of shape deflection (following will the detailed description in detail) easily under pressured state.These three arm shape casting dies 102 are just like spoke, and radial section shown in Figure 19 (the XI X along the line-XI X among Figure 18 is dissectd), and the half-round section (dissecing along sweep XX-XX among Figure 18) that ratio shown in Figure 20 is amplified can be found out its shape.

Figure 20 also comprises the horizontal section of two slicers 100, and clearly represents its upright appearance profile with respect to the main plane of section disk 94.Each slicer 100 is all cut to dash a curved elongated slot, and the edge of elongated slot (counter-clockwise direction) upwards twists.The edge that upwards twists (profile that superimposing thread is represented among Figure 20) then is pressed downward principal plane flat and that be parallel to the disk 94 of cutting into slices is shown in the whole profile among Figure 20 with formation sharp keen cut edge.Figure 21 amplifies for ratio and the section at crooked shape edge to the center of the section disk 94 that dissects along line X XI-X XI of Figure 18, to represent the edge of a slicer 100, represents that especially how slicer 100 is become uprightly by the principal plane of section disk 94.

The flange perimeter that returns the section disk 94 on Fig. 1 is to embed in the molded polymeric ring 104.The periphery of ring 104 be profile of tooth be contained in a driving pinion 106 engagement on the laminate 12 (when the operative combination that is assembled into as shown in Figure 1).Driving pinion 106 drives ring 104, makes section disk 94 rotate.Because section disk 94 is and axle 78 bondings so driving screw screw thread 84 rotates section disk 94 is rotated synchronously.

Suppose that force feed piston 68 pulled down by slideway 64, and driving pinion 106 keeps static, raw potato falls into slideway 64 and terminates on the section disk 94.Then piston 66 is inserted in and the extension 92 of manually extruding with part threaded portion 88 against protuberance 86.Piston 66 can move down slideway 64 till piston area 68 contact potatos in this case, extending laterally part 72 can cooperate with axle 78 simultaneously, and pine oil extension 92 is so that male member 86 moves together again so that part screw thread 88 screws togather with driving screw screw thread 84 then.Then, driving pinion 106 drives rings 104, and both also make section disk 94 and axle 78 quantitative counter-clockwise direction (seeing from top to bottom) and rotate.For example, if section disk 94 counter-clockwise direction are rotated whole two circles, its three slicers 100 just can cut out six (under the normal conditions), and every thickness is in fact equally thick, and the size of thickness is ordered about the pitch decision that potato is displaced downwardly to section disk 94 by driving screw screw thread 84.In like manner, if section disk counter-clockwise direction is changeed whole three circles, its three slicers 100 can cut out nine (under the normal conditions) of thickness homogeneous.Learn that via experiment six or nine are the suitable sheet number of frying combination, below can explanation.Raw potato pieces is one group one group and falls into the rear end of oil groove 14 respectively and directly and do not need through cleaning and dry operation.Fry oil greatly about the degree of depth of the horizontal part office of prodger 42 down under the normal operational circumstances in the oil groove 14, and this fry oil by heating element heater 30 be heated in advance predetermined temperature among a small circle in, below will describe in detail.To be appropriate authority and method of operating thereof can suitable quilt fry and have suitable fragility in the resulting raw potato pieces of above-mentioned equipment and method of operating guaranteeing in following narration.

Consult Fig. 1 again, when frying process, potato slices is also comprised a spoon part 108 movably through oil groove 14 and the crisp capital equipment of dealing carefully with that picks up from oil groove 14 that will explode backward.Spoon part 108 is the profiles that curved " L " shape by the stainless steel substrates of perforation, what it had that a bigger horizontal upper part 110 and less vertical back portion 112(will indicate at this is that so-called level is in position shown in Figure 1 with the vertical spoonful part 108 that is meant purely, because the spoon part is back to turn around when operation so its position is not the position that is always shown in Figure 1 for change).The width of spoon part 108 is slightly smaller than the inner width (seeing Fig. 5 and 6) of following protuberance 42 belows of oil groove 14, so that spoon part 108 can move freely in groove 14 under the situation in minimum lateral space.The size in each hole of spoon in the part 108 and the number in hole with can make fry oil easily can't be by being principle by still minimum food fragment.

Spoon part 108 is suspended in the oil groove 14 with a pair of spoon part moving member 114, and this is to the detailed Figure 22-27 that is shown in of spoon spare moving member.Each moving member 114 is a pair of horizontal elongated slot of clamping in spoon spare 110 edges respectively.Two moving members 114 in fact are shape size forward surfaces in the same manner, moving member 114 shown in Figure 22-27 be with moving member shown in Figure 1 114 with on one side (one of this two moving member 114 is not shown among Fig. 1, it be with the moving member 114 shape sizes shown in Figure 22-27 in the same manner in opposite directions).

This two moving member 114 and flexible polymer body by integral forming.Each moving member 114 has a pedestal to constitute (Figure 22,23,24 and 26) by central portion 116 on one and following side 118.

Two elongated slots that are positioned at spoonful part 110 sides constitute the tongue of the below slide to centre pedestal portion 116, and side group seat 118 then is positioned at the tongue both sides that are made of elongated slot under the edge of spoonful part 110.When moving member 114 slided on spoonful part tongue, the central projection spare 120 in the centre pedestal portion 116 just was fixed in the conjugate foramen in spoonful part tongue (Figure 23,24,26 and 27).The side of moving member 114 because the relation of the upright bracket spare 122 that the supporter 124 at diagonal angle supported is arranged, makes that moving member 114 can be at the little edge place of spoon spare (Figure 22,24,25 and 27) with spoon spare portion 110 combination the time.An arm 126 parallel with 118 with base portion 116 supported at the top of cradle member 122, also just is parallel to spoonful 110(Figure 22 of part portion, 23,24 and 25 when therefore making up).The shape of arm spare 126 has nature and stops spoonful effect that part portion 110 outward directions move, so that when not being subjected to fixedly, just the shape of this arm spare 126 is assumed to be the bandy naturally shape shown in Figure 22 and 23.But the elasticity of arm spare 126 makes that its free end (away from the end of cradle member 122) can be stressed when this arm spare 126 support is straight and inwardly push away.The two ends of arm spare 126 (cardinal extremity at free end and cradle member 122 tops just) have respectively lower surface camber to evagination part 128 and 130(Figure 22,23,25 and 27).Prominent part 128 and 130, especially the lower surface camber of these two prominent parts is respectively on teat 42 and 44, below will describe in detail, so that support spoon part 108 can suitably be in required height and state (for instance, Fig. 1 represents the position of spoonful part 108 when two prominent parts 128 and 130 rest on the horizontal component of following teat 42) with different motion stage.

And moving member 114 is provided with the folder 132(Figure 22,25,26 and 27 that projects upwards at cradle member 122 medial surfaces).The folder 132 of the moving member 114 of (Fig. 1) is the becket 134 that articulates a heaviness in the both sides of spoon spare 108 in the crisp manufacturing device 10 that combines.The outer end of becket 134 then is pivoted to aforesaid flexible but on the band that can't extend, these bands are in conduit 58 and 60 and are subjected to groove 56(Fig. 9 and 11) in the bulging part effect of rotating and moving back and forth.These assemblies will be described further following referring to Figure 28.

Figure 28 is the plan view of crisp manufacturing device 10 after the combination of Fig. 1, but wherein each assembly is more or less cut or only represent with profile, so that will be hidden in that the component table of view back is shown on the figure and with clearization of relation of inter-module.

Both all represent to drive the whole shape of the heavy becket 134 of spoonful part 108 Fig. 1 and 28, and its situation of articulating via the folder on the moving member 114 132.Figure 28 represents that also spoonful part moving member arm 126 is to cause also stressed formation of this arm spare 126 to support straight shape because of prominent part 12 outer ends that contacts with the sidewall of the oil groove 14 of following teat 42 straight tops are stressed.

In Figure 28, laminate 12(Fig. 9) groove 56 comprises one with driving pinion 106 coaxial lines but the bulging part 136 of independent rotation.Conduit 58 and 60(Fig. 9) microscler flexible of clamping but the band 138 and 140 that can't uphold, this two band 138 and 140 all partly is wound in the peripheral groove of bulging part 136 and is anchored in the elongated slot 412.Band 138 and 140 stretches out on the direct corresponding point that reaches oil groove 14 along each corresponding elongated slot 58 and 60 from drum part 136.Because the axis of drum part 136 becomes the side direction off normal with the center line of crisp manufacturing device 10, so band 138 must become different length with 140, so that its end away from drum part 136 can be happened to into relative direction each other.

Another that only represent flexible band 138 in Fig. 1 and 28 is different from the end points of bulging part end, and this end points leaves band elongated slot 58(and Figure 11 relatively by extending upward), reach the one-body molded prominent part 144 in the hollow circuit cylinder pod 146 then to the medial expansion of elongated slot 58.Corresponding another end points of flexible band 140 also has with respect to the structure of prominent part 144 with pod 146.The corresponding pod (not drawing among the figure) of pod 146 and band 140 ends is inserted at the two ends of heavy metal wire loop 134 respectively, metal wire loop 134 have an elasticity and slightly tool to external resistance so that its two ends fit pod firmly.Metal wire loop 134 is being provided with the pivoting point of a pair of between spoon spare 108 and band 138 and 140 on the figure.Therefore the arc of drum part 136 level that just is transformed into spoonful part 108 that moves back and forth moves back and forth.But on the spoon part moving member 114 prominent part 128 and 130 with teat 42 and 44 between interaction (adding the place of stretching upwards 54) can cause the front of spoonful part 108 and back have in the varying level position different definitely and relative altitude, below will describe in detail.

Begin explanation (it a little earlier) by the position that is shown in the spoon part 108 among Fig. 1 than position shown in Figure 28, drum the clockwise rotating of part 136 (direction of seeing is from top to bottom determined) makes band 138 and 140, metal wire loop 134, and main makes spoonful part 108 move forward (the right among Fig. 1 and 2 8).Just Fig. 1 position constantly before, at first for the prominent part 130 of moving member, can begin to move for the prominent part 128 of moving member so that spoonful part 108 follows the antetheca 24 to the upslope of oil groove 14 to move then from the slope forward of teat 42 down.When spoon spare 108 moved forward continuously, prominent part 130 can leave the front end of teat 42 earlier, and then prominent then part 128 leaves again, but this move forward be not subjected to interruptedly to continue to reach on laminate 12 to upper surface 54.This moves forward just so to continue and just stops when spoon spare portion 112 reaches the top lip 26 on slope 24; The front end antelabium 26 that arrives can drip oil-recovery tank via each hole of spoon spare 108 and the gap between spoon part edge and oil groove sidewall and fry oil so under spoonful part 108 all crisp or other materials can be swept from oil groove by spoon parts 108.The time that can stop preferably five seconds at least clockwise rotating of this place drum part 136 is to guarantee suitably dripping oil-recovery tank fully to fry oil on just fried good crisp.

Then, rousing part 136 does reciprocal rotation and spoon spare 108 is returned to steep face 54 places with clockwise.When the dash forward bottom of the steep face 54 of part 128 arrival and the teat 44 that begins to make progress moved, aforesaid elastic arm spare 126 outside bias voltages made prominent part 128 outside bullets consequently terminate in teat 44 places.When spoon spare 108 continues to move backward (direction left among Fig. 1 and 2 8), move in the broad space that prominent part 128 is understood on the teat 44 that makes progress, prominent part 130 then can continue on following teat 42 to moving down, because teat 130 be when mounted with prominent part 128 have a segment distance separate (see figure 6) as a result spoon spare portion 112 can move to the suitable distance in oil groove base plate 22 tops, and under normal circumstances, the following ora terminalis of spoon part portion 112 can pass through above the pasta of frying oil.In like manner, another ora terminalis of spoon part portion 112 can move down because of the 108 whole inclinations of spoon spare, and under normal circumstances can insweptly fry oil.Can sweep behind floating over the half-mature crisp past effectively oil groove of frying on the oil in the oil groove 14 like this, below will do more detailed narration.

Moving more backward of spoon part 108 can make prominent part 128 begin transfer point 46(comparison diagram 6 and the Fig. 5 that broadens effectively by oil groove 14 along last teat 44), so that when prominent part 128 convergences or when reaching the point 48 of oil groove the widest part, prominent part 128 is back to down teat 42 places because of the weight relationships of the assembly that spoon spare 108 combines with it to the whereabouts, can make each assembly do the rotation of necessity under gravity and align again at folder 132 places with the becket 134 of pod 146 places do pivot joint.

When spoon spare 108 reached the rear portion of oil groove 14 and falls back lower, drum part 136 just stopped inhour and rotates.Then drum part 136 just turns clockwise so that spoon part 108 levels move to being returned to position shown in Figure 1, so under normal circumstances spoon part 108 whole being immersed to are fully fried in the oil.In the mobile phase of spoon spare 108 at this back segment, the potato block in spoon spare 108 is immersed in heat just stressedly and fries in the oil, in case it floats on the pasta.

Spoon the mobile of part 108 is not continuously, because the operation of frying is that one group one group potato block one is moved to another place off and on from oil groove 14, the mode that the program of frying in each stage is all suspended is carried out.And crisp of accurately will fry shifts out oil groove 14 and market is delivered in packing.Between some mobile phase of spoon spare 108 or between two mobile phases, feed and the slicing mechanism 20 of potato can make up to produce required potato block in operation.

The order of one preferable function and motion and regularly below will describe, the oil of supposing to contain in the oil groove 14 of suitably frying approximately reaches teat 42 places down, and supposes that this fries oil and by heating element heater 30 it is maintained in the scopes of 5 degree Celsius up and down of preferred temperature of 165 degree Celsius.Oil groove 14 is immersed in part in the oil and is divided into a rear portion and a front portion (" rear portion " is meant the left side among Fig. 1 and 28, and " front portion " then points to right part to anterior lip spare 26) basically, and front portion be the shared position of about spoonful of part 108 in Fig. 1 and 28.

Stage, 1: one spoonful of part 108 rested on the position shown in Fig. 1 and 28, and a raw potato of shelling skin is in slideway 64, and piston 66 top is clipped on this raw potato, driving pinion 106 rotates and drive dish 94 takes two turns so that six do not clean and undried raw potato pieces directly falls into the rear portion of oil groove 14.Stage 1 approximately continued for ten seconds.Cut dish 94 and also can change three circles so that in ten five seconds, produce the raw potato pieces of nine groups.

Stage 2: spoon part 108 is still in the position shown in Fig. 1 and 28, and six (or nine) raw potatos begin to fall into the bottom that the heat at oil groove 14 rear portions is fried oil.So potato block begins to fry and becomes some semi-ripe condition on branch matter surface, the shallow lake of potato block.Make that so potato block can be together not adhering to each other again or adhere on the assembly of crisp manufacturing device 10, this can be considered a kind of deeply worried form of potato block.Stage 2 continues about 30 seconds to 45 seconds (fall into the period of oil groove and decide according to potato block), the later stage in stage 2, the surface of the potato block of " deeply worried " just produces the little vapour bubble that one deck is boiled by inner moisture, and the floating extremely heat of potato block is fried on the surface of oil.

Stage, 3: one spoonfuls of parts 108 intactly made a circle as previously mentioned.Because when spoon part 108 goes back to from oil groove 14 fronts, spoon part portion 112 rise and when spoon spare 108 reaches oil groove 14 rear portions again to the whereabouts, and at spoon spare 108 during to the origin-location that moves forward to as shown in Figure 1, this spoonful part portion 112 still remains on following position, the half-mature potato block that floats on the pasta that stage 2 produces can be picked up like this, and force these half-mature potatos to sink to heat and fry in the oil, and force these half-mature potatos to move to aforesaid oil groove 14 front portions.The time in stage 3 in about ten seconds, and under normal operation, the potato block at oil groove 14 rear portions can be transferred to the front portion of oil groove 14.The preparation in stage 2 is fried situation and is guaranteed to comprise that potato block can be together not adhering to each other when stage 3 and stages 3, later master fried situation.

Stage 4: then be the repetition in stage 1, other one group six (or nine) do not clean and undried raw potato pieces is cut into and directly falls into the rear portion (last group potato block disposed in the stage 3) of oil groove 14 again.As the stage 1, the stage 4 holds and continues about ten seconds to 15 seconds.

Stage 5: be to handle the one group of potato block of sending into oil groove 14 rear portions in back, its operation is the repetition in stage 2, but the difference in it and stage 2 is in last group potato block still by spoon spare 108 to fry in the oil in the anterior heat of oil groove 14 and fries.Continue about 30 to 45 seconds as 2 stages 5 of stage.About 35 to 55 seconds of time of frying of always immersing in stage 3 and stage 5 but.

Stage 6: be the repetition in stage 3, it is that spoonful part 108 moves a circulation.The crisp front portion at oil groove 14 of just having fried in spoon spare 108 is poured onto on the anterior lip spare 26 and (is preferably in the plate or container of suitable rotation), and the unnecessary oil of frying just drips in the oil-recovery tank 14.Spoon part 108 preferably stops about five seconds to help the unnecessary oil droplet oil-recovery tank 14 of frying.Spoon part 108 backhauls mobile picks up crisp of the back group and forced in these the crisp deep fat that moves to oil groove 14 front portions by the rear portion of oil groove 14 then.Stage 6 continues ten seconds approximately.

Stage 4,5 and 6 can in time be added potato according to slideway 64, and increases the oil in the oil groove 14 occasionally if necessary and do unfixed repetition.Therefore, under normal situation (and beginning after the operation), one group six or nine fried fully good potato crispy chip is delivered to packing by crisp manufacturing device 10 needed do not wait to 80 seconds approximately in 55 seconds.The whole time of frying of one group of potato block is about 95 seconds to 140 seconds, one of per 55 seconds to 80 seconds group goods be follow by two groups of continuous potatos respectively at the rear portion and the anterior overlapping result who fries circulation who fries simultaneously of oil groove 14.Such manufacturing speed can be produced 15 minutes time and be adorned about 105 crisp and be equal on the market and make four normal size bags selling.

Spoon part 108 is finished outside the circulation of moving in the mode that moves continuously; on oil groove 14 is inclined upwardly face 24 forward, also can be set as one and suspend or more than one time-out moving part (to improve the oil mass of having dripped on fried good crisp) by just, with and/or with spoon spare portion 112 on anterior lip spare 26, do brief time-out (with guarantee in the spoon part 108 fried well crisp be poured out fully).Above-mentioned each time in stage of frying circulation can be by the change (not drawing on the figure) of suitable time-controlled electing property of operation, cooks the fried chips quality with what obtain being fit to user's taste.

The crisp manufacturing device 210 of one second embodiment is shown in Figure 29 and 30.The cutaway view corresponding to Fig. 1 of Figure 29 for dissecing, and the plane from top to bottom seen of Figure 30 for the crisp manufacturing device 210 of second embodiment taken away by center line.

The crisp manufacturing device 210 of second embodiment basically to the crisp manufacturing device 10 similar (Fig. 1-2 8) of first embodiment, therefore following narration will be illustrated at the main difference point of the crisp manufacturing device 10 of second embodiment.Mutual reference for the ease of two embodiment, among second embodiment 210 on the structure with and/or function on the part identical with first example 10 will be marked with identical label, but label is preceding again titled with " 2 " or " 3 " (also the label of second embodiment is that the label of first embodiment adds 200 in other words).Second embodiment 210 does not specify at following all parts just with reference to the relevant detailed description of the equal part of first embodiment 10.

The crisp manufacturing device 210 of second embodiment has three lens, and be as follows:

(A): the laminate 212 that-is contained in each mechanism (following will describe or contrast first embodiment 10 in detail) and an outstanding solid heating oil groove 214;

(B): the below of-one envelope perithallium plate 212, also support laminate 212 on working surface or platform top and the lower cover 216 that crisp manufacturing device 210 ended thereon; And

(C) :-one is contained in laminate 212 end faces and feeds the detachable lid 218 that fuses with slicing mechanism 220 with potato.

Crisp manufacturing device 210 is to feed and slicing mechanism 220 with the remarkable different of first embodiment 10 basically, and particularly this feeds non-perpendicular and be inclined to the front (it is looked in the right side by Figure 29 and 30) of crisp manufacturing device 210 with the axle 278 of slicing mechanism 220.Even axle 278 is not via peripheral transmission power to be reached indirectly to cut dish (Fig. 1 94), but directly with the incompatible transmission spindle 278 of cover of the driving shaft 207 of three side direction keyed jointings.Power transmission shaft 207 is stretched out by a gear-box 400 and forms an angle that becomes off normal with a right angle.Gear-box 400 has a horizontal power shaft 401 that driven by an electro-motor (not drawing among the figure) to drive the first rank worm speed-down gear of the transmission that also is set as level one vertical axis.Be the vertical axis worm gear 403 of first rank gear train output support one with its function that connects with the eccentric part 405 of one be the input in second decelerating phase of gear-box 400.Eccentric part 405 is rotated with the sun 407 of resisting total rotation by a spigot 409 anchorings around one.407 of the suns appoint outer ring gear 411 interior around rotation, and this outer ring gear 411 is second rank deceleration output of gear-box 400.Because spigot 409 is the elongated slots 413 that are anchored in the body frame of gear-box 400, so eccentric part 405 and the sun 407 are to turn round the driven wheel 411 that multiple proportions ground carries out interior circular pendulum line formula with the speed reducing ratio of a reality with changeing.Ring bevel gear 415 drives a cone pinion 417 on the lower end of power transmission shaft 407 with rim gear wheel 411 one in one.

Another difference place that crisp manufacturing device 210 is different from first embodiment 10 is to be clipped in spoonful rear end of part moving member 314 (but not Fig. 1 at front end) for connecting metal wire 334.

Each assembly also has little difference dimensionally, and such as oil groove 214, it also is outstanding in solid laminate 212 fronts, makes lip spare 226 at the front-end edge of laminate 212 but not be located at back (Fig. 1 and 2 8).The front end of lip spare 218 is being closed by gravity by an accessory cover 219 hingedly under normal circumstances.Accessory cover 219 all can the mobile circulation of spoon spare 308 move forward to the utmost point front end the time temporarily pushed open.

Under whole basic condition, the operation of the crisp manufacturing device 210 of second embodiment is identical with first embodiment 10.

Figure 31 represents the primary clustering of the 3rd embodiment of crisp manufacturing device of the present invention.The 3rd embodiment explanation each assembly in Figure 31 carries out in the three-dimensional shape mode of decomposing of isogonism, and these assemblies are actually and are contained in the inside and are assembled into one mutually when operation.Be reciprocating motion linearly with the spoon part of aforesaid first embodiment and second embodiment, the spoon part among the 3rd embodiment adopts the leafy spoon part of unidirectional rotation to carry out each step.

Know clearly and read Figure 31, the crisp manufacturing device of the 3rd embodiment has a main casing spare 516, and its supports one to be essentially the fuel tank 514 of frustoconical.Fuel tank 514 has an electric heater that fuses 530.The upper surface of fuel tank 514 is cut and form an opening 515 and form a line with corresponding opening 517 in the main casing spare 516.The front first half of fuel tank 514 also excises and forms an opening so that a motor shell spare 519 forms a combination of operating in being assemblied in.Motor shell spare 519 comprises a flat header board 521 to separate with main casing spare 516 front upper, and motor shell spare 519 also comprises a cylindrical motor that is assemblied in flat header board 521 back every portion 523, and cylindrical motor every portion 523 after assembling is and fuel tank 514 coaxial lines.

One spoonful of part combination 508 is contained in the rear end of motor shell spare 523, and it supports four spoonfuls of leaves 510,511,512 and 513 and constitute symmetrically by a hub portion 509.Each spoonful leaf 510-513 stretches out and then axially stretches out from hub portion 509 by hub portion 509 is radially outer.Spoon part combination 508 is to be assemblied in the cylinder motor with one heart on the end of portion 523, thus hub portion 509 be coaxial line every portion 523.When spoon spare combination 508 was rotated, spoon leaf 510-513 added that every portion 523 hollow space between the hub portion 509 sweeps at fuel tank 514 and motor.

Via a concordant opening 515 and 517, and also reach this hollow region at a path via the scallop hole 520 in the header board 521.

Be to close and this lid 518 is provided with its lower end and aligns with scallop hole 520 and form two beginning slideways 564 of hollow region under the anterior normal operation of the end face of main casing spare by 518 on an articulated lid.

The section dish 594 of outer surface support one on motor transmission spindle 578 of header board 521.

The 3rd embodiment among Figure 31 in use, with each component assembling together, and fuel tank 514 is full of the oil of frying of an appropriate depth (only about half of height), this fry oil then be heated near Celsius 165 the degree set points of temperature.One raw potato that cleans and shelled skin is sent into slideway 564, make raw potato prop up section dish 594 by gravity.Section dish 594 rotates the rotation amount that can get required potato block number becomes one group of potato block (the compounded plate number in the 3rd embodiment is preferably four).This group raw potato pieces falls into the space between spoonful leaf 510 and 511 via hole 520 and entering part is full of the heat in this space fries in the oil.So make potato block can as first embodiment situation about describing in detail become bright burnt state and can not adhere to mutually.

When finishing in the early stage, 1/4th circles are changeed in spoon part combination 50 so that the space between the spoon leaf 510 and 511 reaches the hollow region bottom in the fuel tank 514.The so feasible burnt potato block that burns is suppressed to oil to be accepted to fry completely.At the same time, then the space between the spoon leaf 510 and 513 then goes to hole 520 and aligns, to hold another group potato block from the potato in the slideway 564.

When the phase of frying finished, the rotations of 1/4th circles were done in spoon part combination 508 more in addition with same direction of rotation so that the space between the spoon leaf 510 and 511 is back to half height of fuel tank 514, but in the hole 520 another side.Comprise that in this position the operation of frying with embrittlement all carries out.Just at the same time, second group potato block is immersed in the bottom of fuel tank 514 fully, and then just align to hold the potato block of next group with hole 520 in the space between the spoon leaf 512 and 513.

Spoon part combination 508 does 1/4th then then totally turn around to this with same direction again so that the space between the spoon leaf 510 and 511 moves to the top with opening 515 and 517 and together.Fry fully and the potato block of tool fragility with oil droplet down and the inclined upper surface of slip away shell spare 523 and hub portion 509, and leave shell spare opening 517 so that packing through fuel tank opening 515.

Suppose that spoon part combination 50 is divided between about 30 seconds same zone, each 1/4th calibration that change rotated about three seconds, more suppose behind calibration the operation about ten seconds of section at once, so just fried the burnt state that becomes to burn minimum about 20 seconds, then be 60 seconds fry, wherein the junior three ten seconds is immersed situation in the deep fat for depressing potato block.

Just spoon spare each can be moved the intercycle change as first and second embodiment, to change the length of the time of always frying, the interval that respectively rotates between calibration of the spoon part combination among the 3rd embodiment also can change, changing the length of the time of always frying, with matched person's taste with and/or cooperate potato or other edible materials are fried and the fragility condition.Spoon number of sheets order in the spoon part combination is not necessarily wanted four leaves, for example also can five (same intervals).

Consult Figure 32 again, it is that the crisp manufacturing device of the 4th embodiment is transformed into raw potato the perspective view of frying ripe potato crispy chip fully.Be oil groove and spoon part mechanism 612 tops that potato feeds slicing mechanism 610 installing on one position is the bottom shown in figure 32, and the view that side shell portion removes.The detailed construction that potato feeds slicing mechanism 610 then is shown in Fig. 1, the 12-21 of specification and the 28(slicing mechanism of feeding wherein and is contained in microscler covering cooperating the rectangle oil groove, but that the lid of the correspondence in the 4th embodiment of this Figure 32 then is about is fan-shaped to cooperate the arc oil groove of the 4th embodiment).

Figure 33 represents oil groove and spoon part mechanism 612 down, and the mechanism on its top removes in the drawings.(be to see to the port of export of crisp manufacturing device in Figure 32, Figure 33 is then seen by the left side of crisp manufacturing device of Figure 32 and obtains).As shown in figure 33, a metal oil groove 614 is outstanding solid by a plastic cement laminate.Oil groove 614 and its laminate 616 Fig. 1-2 8 corresponding oil grooves with above-mentioned basically are identical with laminate with device, and the longitudinal axis that institute is not all oil groove curves a circular arc to cooperate a spoonful part driving mechanism (being specified in down).The flat shape of laminate 616 remodifies to cooperate the arc of present oil groove 614.Oil groove 614 is by the resistive element (can't see among the figure) that is located at bottom electric heating in addition, and its mode is identical with above-mentioned Fig. 1-2 8.Oil groove 614 can be made by aluminium flake or stainless steel substrates, or the metal of any application P.T.F.E..

Have a vertical drive shaft 618 to extend through laminate 616 and carry out a series of step in the mode of angular displacement with moving back and forth, it is similar to a succession of step of the spoon part driving mechanism of above-mentioned Fig. 1-2 8.The rotation of driving shaft 618 makes the arm spare 620 that is pivoted to driving shaft 618 do swing (this pivot is not a level slightly, to change the motion geometry of spoon part 622) with one with the axis of the almost horizontal at 620 one-tenth one right angles of arm spare.Arm spare 620 is to press from both sides being formed by connecting of formula by a utmost point with the pivot joint of driving shaft 618, so that arm spare 620 can be pulled down cleaning, and prevents that arm spare 620 from causing when refilling driving shaft 618 and correctly engages the deviations with 180 degree.

The outboard end of arm spare 620 is supported the drive sub of the spoon part 622 of a porous, the axis of this drive sub approximately with arm spare 620 and driving shaft 618 between the pivot joint axis to agent, so that spoon part 622 moves (similar to the mode to its moving direction of spoonful part of above-mentioned Fig. 1-2 8) to its correct direction.

The arc of driving shaft 618 is to the horizontal level of Position Control spoon spare 622 in oil groove 614.The upright position that spoon part 622 installs to the end points on the arm spare 620 installs to laminate 616 by one or fuses with laminate 616 and near be positioned at driving shaft 618 and oil groove 614 ora terminalis cam surface 624 is controlled.Arm spare 620 is contained in the pivot joint cam follower 626 in the arm spare 620 via one and is connected with cam surface 624, so that cam follower 626 bottoms alternatively contact with distal edge with the end face of cam surface 624 respectively with the top, and the situation of its contact is to put to the right or put left and decide (as shown in figure 33) according to arm spare 620.Cam follower 626 pivots with the rectangular horizontal axis of arm spare 620 length with one, and because of its shape relation consequently its driving scope just be restricted.

Spoon part 622 expressions of the 4th embodiment among Figure 33 are corresponding to " static " or " immerse in the oil and fry " position of above-mentioned Fig. 1 spoon spare position.

Finish back (it is that spoonful part 622 rests on the position among Figure 33) in " immerse in the oil and the fry " stage, driving shaft 618 is to be counter rotation when seeing from top to bottom.This rotation of driving shaft 618 just makes arm spare 620, and and its spoon part together swing.In the first stage that this spoonful part that is moved forward by " immerse in the oil and fry " position of Figure 33 moves, spoon part 622 is moved upward to oil groove 614 forward, angled surfaces as the slope, as shown in figure 34.Be trapped in spoonful part 622 following crisp potato blocks of frying and then picked up on the way, and when a spoon part 622 reaches the forward, angled surfaces of oil groove 614, just do not dripped in the oil-recovery tank by the unnecessary oil of crisp absorption by the vertical trailing edge of spoon spare 622.The mobile order of spoon part 622 preferably includes in forward, angled surfaces does of short duration staying so that increase the unnecessary oil mass that splashes into oil groove.

Driving shaft 618 shown in Figure 35 for stopping the position that inhour is rotated, spoon spare 622 has dragged for to the leading edge of oil groove 614 fully with crisp when this position, (does not draw among the figure) and these crisp poured in the plate or in other containers.622 of position spoon spares in Figure 35 are supported by the ramp member 628 that is located at the leading edge inner side edge place that is positioned at oil groove 614 on the laminate 616.In order to cooperate the pivot joint of the spoon inboard trailing edge of part 622 and it and arm spare 620, during by Figure 34 position transition to 35 position, the interior curved edge of oil groove 614 is transformed into the shape with a roomy perpendicular grooves 630 by original pure circle.

The top of by the anti-clockwise extreme positions driving shaft 618 beginning backward rotation of Figure 35 spoon spare 622 being taken back and crossing oil groove 614 is shown in Figure 36 and 37.Because up move along the slope shape surface on the cam 624 counter-clockwise direction edges bottom of cam follower 626, arm spare 620 is above remaining on by the front end backhaul at spoon spare 622 during to the rear end, can know in Figure 37 and find out.So make driven member 626 pivots moving to the limit that moves up (clockwise direction shown in Figure 37).When spoon spare 622 drawback movements, ora terminalis remains on the top as described above thereafter, and its front-end edge (by with the pivot joint of arm spare 620) fall and cross the base plate of oil groove 614.So after slicing mechanism 610 section and fall into that deep fat in the oil groove 614 is made next group raw potato pieces that part fries no matter whether it floats over pasta and thereby be dispersed to the oil groove rear portion that is all brought to oil groove 614 by spoonful part 622 everywhere.

When the end edge of spoon spare 622 reached the end edge of oil groove 614, cam follower 626 just left and makes arm spare 620 fall from the upper surface of cam 624.Cause spoonful part 622 to rest on the base plate of oil groove 614 to moving down like this, as shown in figure 38, stressed being immersed in of next potato block group that it fries part fried in the oil.In the position of Figure 38, the rotation of the clockwise direction of driving shaft 618 finishes, and counter rotation begins, and extends to Figure 39, just finishes one and move circulation on " immersing frying in the oil " position shown in Figure 33.

When driving shaft 616 beginning counter-clockwise direction were rotated, moved at the vertical wedge inner side surface of the clockwise direction ora terminalis that constitutes cam 624 at the top of cam follower 626.Make cam follower 626 move like this to moving another limit (contrasting) of its pivot in Figure 37, so that when cam 620 clockwise directions rotate, driven member is not on the end face of cam 624 but when arm spare 620 counter-clockwise direction move, and driven member moves on the arm spare 620 avoiding in cam 624 medial movement.Arm spare 620 does not upwards move guarantees that spoonful part 622 moves and potato block that retaining part is fried is immersed in and fries in the oil along oil groove 614.

Driving shaft 618 can be by an one-directional rotation that is contained in the electro-motor (not drawing among the figure) of laminate 616 belows, carry out moving back and forth via a reduction gearing, and it is mobile to make driving shaft 618 do counter-rotating by final being connected to driving shaft 618 of crank mechanism (not drawing among the figure) as above-mentioned angular displacement.If this CD-ROM drive motor is connected to the power intake of crank mechanism via an one-way clutch (such as a rotary pawl and ratchet), the rotation that motor is only made single direction will cause spoonful part driving shaft 618 to do necessary angular displacement moving back and forth.If same CD-ROM drive motor is via another and the opposite one-way clutch (and reducing gear train) of direction and be connected to food slicer driving pinion 632, the counter-rotation of CD-ROM drive motor (just the direction with above-mentioned is opposite) will drive carries and slicing mechanism 610, but not can with the time move spoonful part 622, otherwise also anti-.The operation of this alternative expression of spoon part and food slicer is feasible because as above-mentioned corresponding to first and second embodiment (Fig. 1-30), the operation of this alternative expression is most suitable in preparation of the present invention and fry program.Another kind of mode can be independently driven by the electro-motor of corresponding indivedual unidirectional rotations for spoon part driving shaft 618 and food slicer driving pinion 632.

The startup of CD-ROM drive motor can be by a regularly circuit control, and it stops then by position detector control, such as by the operated limit switch of the tappet on the driver of spoon spare driver and food slicer, with and/or the reed of carbonization start adorn switch.

Rest on " immerse and fry " on oil groove 614 base plates as shown in figure 33 during the stage just when spoon part 622, food slicer driving pinion 632 just rotates the angle of a necessary amount and directly falls into oil groove 614 (can know understanding with the situation of the arrangement of aliging of spoon part mechanism 612 at the slicing mechanism above oil groove 610 shown in Figure 32) so that the raw potato pieces of next group produces.Owing to having a rear wall to be protruded upward by the first type surface (surface of level and porous) of spoon spare 622, spoon part 622 prevents that potato block is from the floating front portion (immerse and fry and embrittlement portion) that flow to oil groove 614, the rear portion (frying portion in advance) of oil groove 614, the rear portion of this spoonful part the textural trailing edge that stretches out downwards that becomes spoonful part 612 upwards continuously, this trailing edge that stretches out downwards is in order to force crisp to move apart oil groove 614 at Figure 34 and 35 described packing during the stage.

No doubt be illustrated in the described embodiment of Figure 32-39 and be particularly suitable for family and use, but be not to be defined in home-usely at this point, it also can be applicable on the commercial use.When being applied to manufacturer its food (and may comprise beverage) dealer is bought in retail sales nor gate city, and during the food stand, present invention can be implemented in the machine that is shown in appended graphic size, or strengthen its size to meet potato crispy chip or other edible brittle prods that need produce by actual needs.If the requirement of each group potato block is quite a lot of, potato can be fed and slicing mechanism make the potato that can cut multi-disc simultaneously so that arbitrary single feed and situation that slicing mechanism does not exceed the speed limit under increase output.For example, big crisp manufacturing device of Figure 32, feed slicing mechanism 610 can three groups of cutting knifes of tool so that can cut three potatos simultaneously; Make one to carry conduit to carry more potato block and do not interrupt producing of potato block like this.

Manufacture method of the present invention and equipment no doubt limit unwelcome oil smoke amount, but the time that is to use long with/or use the crisp slice manufacturing device more long-range just can't meet original oil smoke quantitative limitation amount than the crisp manufacturing device that is suitable for general family of the present invention.So the oil smoke that crisp manufacturing device of the present invention produced can be disposed to atmosphere on every side again through a filter.Filter can be made and can be fused with crisp manufacturing device by activated carbon.

Consult Figure 40-60 now, the 5th embodiment of crisp manufacturing device of they explanations.The appearance of the whole crisp manufacturing device that Figure 40-46 expression is seen by all directions, this 5th embodiment is special asymmetrical shape.

In general, the 5th embodiment is different from the 4th embodiment part shown in Figure 32-39 and is that the 5th embodiment has the oil groove of an arc (because the relation of top cover and drain pan can't be seen among Figure 40-46).Yet, though the 5th embodiment has many identical technical characterictics with the 4th embodiment, but the 5th embodiment has with the 4th embodiment and becomes relative reflection part, and it is to reverse corresponding to the imagination of the 4th embodiment vertical axis near the center for the function of clockwise direction and counterclockwise structure and the 5th embodiment.

The detailed now primary clustering of readding Figure 40-46, the five embodiment 710 is divided into three groups basically, and is as follows:

(A) :-one loads onto following detailed description the in detail of laminate 712(of each mechanism), an outstanding solid heating oil groove (following also will describe in detail);

(B) :-one seals the lower house 716 of laminate 712 bottoms, this lower house 716 is also supported laminate 712, make it at kitchen working surface, countertop, or the top of other surfaces (schematically being illustrated in the bottom water horizontal line among Figure 42-45) so that crisp manufacturing device seat operate thereon; And

(C) :-one is contained in the detachable loam cake 718 on laminate 712 end faces, and this loam cake 718 is also fed slicing mechanism fuse (following will more being described in detail) with potato.

Lower house 716 is one quite simply and basically to form by the polymer material of heat resistanceheat resistant and crashworthiness is molded.Lower house 716 is except supporting laminate 712, be subjected to unexpected contact in order to the hot outer surface that prevents oil groove, also be used for being used as simultaneously the basic security barrier that places electric component and mechanical component (Figure 49 serve as reasons down look up and lower house 716 removed after view).The last ora terminalis of housing 716 has many equally spaced indentations 720, becomes showy appearance and has the function (other heat vent will in following narration) of heat vent in order to the overlapping lower edge below that is assemblied in laminate 712.Laminate 712 is to be fixed together with lower house 716 with unloading.

Loam cake 718 is engaged on the laminate 712 in the mode of clamping, but must carry out by tool using when removing stage makeup and costume.Have a hollow channel 722 to stretch out, and its effect is identical with passage 64 among Fig. 1,12,13 and 28, just allows raw potato (or other vegetables or fruit) enter the inside of crisp manufacturing device 710 by the left side of loam cake 718.Potato (or other edible materials) by one in Fig. 1,14,17 and 18 piston 66 piston 724 with an in check certain speed in passage 712 to pressing down.Piston 724 is driven by a driving screw 726 identical with the driving screw 78 of Fig. 1 and 28, but driving screw 726 is a left hand thread, the following narration of its reason.Piston 724 be by one similar in appearance to the detachable clamping device 728 of the tool elasticity shown in Figure 14-17 continuously to driving screw 726.Feed mechanism except size and shaped slightly are variant among first embodiment that feeds the 722-728 of mechanism and Fig. 1-2 8 of the 5th embodiment, both there is no significant difference, therefore can be with reference to figure 1-28 in total and function.Perspective view and side view that potato feeds the 722-728 of mechanism are shown in Figure 40-45, and a plan view is shown in Figure 46, and a vertical sectional view is shown in Figure 51.

The lower end how all dishes 730 of the sectional views of Figure 51 are fixed to driving screw 726, it coils 94 with cutting of Fig. 1, and to be fixed to driving screw 78 the same.Figure 50 is expressed as the crisp manufacturing device loam cake of seeing from bottom to top 718, and potato conveying slicing machine structure 722-730 does not remove, three blades wherein cut dish 730 basically to Figure 18-21 in describe in detail three cut coil 94 similar, but be noted that Figure 18 represents to cut dish 94 be to see from top to bottom, and 730 views of serving as reasons down and looking up are coiled in cutting that Figure 50 represents, so cut dish 730 rotation directions and to cut dish 94 opposite, just see from top to bottom and cut dish 730 rotations in a clockwise direction.

730 be modified as two equally spaced cutting knifes if cut dish, but crisp manufacturing device 710 do not done other change (particularly the pitch of driving screw 726 does not change), then 50 percent slice thickness can be bigger.

At first consider crisp manufacturing device 710 shown in Figure 46, can't find out and pay special attention to cutting among dish 730(Figure 46 under passage 722) in a clockwise direction motion (seeing from top to bottom) can see by Figure 47 (the crisp manufacturing device of Figure 46 removed loam cake 718) at once and leave the left end that the raw potato sector-meeting of just being cut into of cutting dish 730 directly falls into the oil groove 732 that is contained on the laminate 712.By the top of Figure 47 with see that by the below of Figure 49 the plane of oil groove 732 is essentially arc.Figure 48 represents along the horizontal section of the line X L oil groove 732 that III-X L III cuts off among Figure 47.

How Figure 48 and 49 expression oil grooves 732 are heated by a resistive element that is essentially U-shaped 734 that is fixed to the below of oil groove 732 with some bar U-shaped battens 736.One thermosistor (not drawing among the figure) is to be fixed between two foots of U-shaped heating element heater 734 and to go to the bottom with oil groove 732 and to do close thermo-contact, thereby controls the temperature of frying oil in the oil groove 732 by the power switching controller of delivering to resistive element 734.One light metal flange piece 738(is such as aluminium flake) be contained on the column piece 740 below the oil groove 732 and do not contact with lower house 716, be not subjected to the radiant heat of resistive element 734 with the bottom of protection lower house 716 as the heat reflection part.

Consult Figure 47 again, the left end of arc oil groove 732 or counter-clockwise direction end are partly accepted the viewpoint of the raw potato pieces that newly is cut into and are looked it from oil groove, and it is the rear portion corresponding to oil groove 14.Therefore, the right-hand member of oil groove 732 or clockwise direction end are corresponding to the front end of the oil groove 14 of Fig. 1.The right-hand member of oil groove 732 has the mechanism that is inclined upwardly to become a slope to the front-end edge 744 of oil groove 732 tilt (these structures are corresponding to the slope 24 and anterior lip spare 26 of Fig. 1).Crisp that has fried is pushed out to front-end edge 744 tops again to gliding or turning to an inclined-plane 746, is collected by a diskware 748 then from oil groove 732.Diskware shown in Figure 40,45 and 47 is converted into the position of sealing at the lower house 716 and the right-hand member of laminate 712, but diskware 748 can its down ora terminalis establish that hinge type connects so that fried crisp remove by crisp manufacturing device 710.

In fact the details with Fig. 1-2 8 is identical with frying method to send into the processing of the raw potato pieces group (or other edible materials) in the oil groove 732, and is more particularly identical with Figure 32-39.The potato block group via the moving through oil groove 732 of a porous spoon spare 750 by being dragged for away, this spoonful part 750 and the width range of oil groove 732 interior with 732 one-tenth side direction close fit of oil groove, can know by Figure 48 and to find out.

The spoon part 750 of the 5th embodiment such as the 4th embodiment of Figure 32-39 by arm spare 752(Figure 47 and 48) institute's support and control.Arm spare 752 is to become place, an inclination angle and spoon part 750 to articulate with the near normal face by a hinge 754 with outboard end.

The medial extremity of arm spare 752 is connected to a vertical drive shaft 758 by a horizontal pivot hinge 756.Arm spare 752 is stretched to the top of laminate 712 a little by hinge 756, enter oil groove 732 then and reach a lateral hinge 754 and a spoon part 750.

Vertical drive shaft 758 is done moving back and forth of angular displacement by the mechanism on the bottom view of crisp manufacturing device 710 of the covering of the removal shown in Figure 49.One first electro-motor 760(is shown in the anti-drive end view) via the running of the reducing gear train in several stages (final stage wherein for label 762 expressions) to drive a crankwheel 764.One connecting rod 766 is connected to crankwheel 764 bottom that is fixed on vertical drive shaft 758.The unidirectional rotation of motor 760 is transformed into the two-way rotation (spoon spare 750 is moved to the other end by an end of oil groove 732 in the reciprocating mode of angular displacement, and then backhaul) of vertical drive shaft 758 via crank mechanism.One controlling organization (not drawing among the figure) is controlled the rule of vertical drive shaft 758 intermittent movements and the characteristics of motion of spoon part 750, is specified in the preferable method of frying of aforementioned this embodiment of the present invention with cooperation.The part of controlling organization can comprise that one reaches the operated electric switch of a predetermined angle position (not drawing among the figure) by crankwheel 764.

Consult Figure 49 again, the second electro-motor 770(is shown in the anti-drive end view) via the running of the reducing gear train (can't know and see) in its corresponding stage, under the control of controlling organization, make a vertical axis 772(Figure 47 who extends through laminate 712 upper surfaces) do predetermined intermittent movement.When loam cake 718 is positioned at the top of laminate 718 with the conveying slicing machine structure 722-730 that combines, a pinion of the upper end of vertical axis 772 be fixed on cut dish rim gear wheel 774(Figure 50 around 730) engagement.Rim gear wheel 774 with the pinion of axle 772 upper ends structurally with function on corresponding with rim gear wheel 104 and the cutter driving pinion 106 of first embodiment shown in Figure 1.Cut dish 730(Figure 50) the rotation at intermittence move to synchronously with the angle at intermittence of spoon part driving shaft 758, to guarantee the potato slices that all as described above embodiment describe in detail and the action proper order of processing.

One by magnetic switch 776(Figure 47) imbed near the laminate 712 of axle 772, there is a little permanent magnet (Figure 50) to be molded into and cuts disk ring gear 774, so that cutting the controlling organization do detection (magnet 778 is each through magnetic switch 776, and magnetic switch 776 just magnetizes and start) that makes crisp manufacturing device 710 when dish 730 circles.Therefore counting is cut dish 730 and is taken two turns or three circles, can not be detained under the situation of potato block at the hypothesis passage, six of raw potato pieces groups or nine groups (respectively) are just cut dish 730 from three blades and are sent into oil groove 732, so the Data Control of every group sheet number is quite easily and accurate.

Consult Figure 47 again, when the clockwise direction of the spoon part of being seen by Figure 47 top 750 or rotation from left to right, spoon part 750 is collected the bottom that can rest on oil groove 732 after moving as shown in figure 48 at the downward potato block of the ultra-Left end (counter-clockwise direction) of oil groove 732.Determined aforesaid spoon part 750 to move horizontally required following vertical plane like this.Spoon spare 750 be in Figure 47 special expression the position and finish immerse the stage of frying after, vertical drive shaft 758 again the clockwise direction rotation with spoon spare 750 bands to the right and upwards reach front end slope 742.Crisp of frying fully can be caused oil groove front-end edge 744(like this and can do a prior short stay if necessary so that unnecessary frying under the oil droplet) and down to the inclined-plane 746.When the front end of spoon spare 750 (to the right or clockwise direction) during by oil groove front-end edge 744, spoon part 750 is supported in correct height by one with the integrally formed slope that protrudes upward 780 of the upper surface of laminate 718, can know among Figure 47 and 48 and find out.Above-mentioned operating sequence is directly with reference to the afore-mentioned shown in Figure 34 and 35.

Cross oil groove front-end edge and inclined-plane 746 and when being back to original position just when spoon spare 750 from its low order end/clockwise crisp branch holding position, height when the aspect ratio rightabout of rear end (by on the left side edge shown in Figure 47) when moving horizontally that it must make becoming now of spoonful part 750 lead direction moves horizontally is also high, so that the ora terminalis of kicking up of spoon part 750 moves the potato block that floats that part is fried as first embodiment of Fig. 1-2 8 to oil groove 732 lefts/counter-clockwise direction.Spoon part 750 necessity on the upright position changes to be by the outer side edges end of arm spare 752 and then to rise the counter-clockwise direction end of spoon parts 750 via hinge 754 therebetween.The rise of arm spare 752 is to be interacted by an arm spare 752 and the cam 782 that can see a little in Figure 47 and the complete shape of indivedual amplifications that Figure 52 represents is found out fully.Cam 782 is molded together (its suitable structure 624 is that other element is fixed to the laminate surface in Figure 33) with the upper surface of laminate 712.

The essential characteristic of cam 782 comprises one and is essentially the outward-dipping ramped surfaces 788(in the spine 784 of level and an acclivitous guiding slope 786 and it will illustrate below function).Each vertical component of cam 782 in Figure 52 detail drawing is illustrated in Figure 53, the 54 and 55 detailed situations with above-mentioned cam 782 structures of clear expression.Particularly the III of the L shown in Figure 53-L III section has comprised that more the hole 790 in the laminate 712 is so that vertically spoon part driving shaft 758 assembles with manufacturing device 710 with crisp.

Spoon part supporting arm 752 does not directly bear against cam 782, but reacts the motion of cam 782 via cam follower 792 therebetween, and the detailed construction of this cam follower 792 is shown in Figure 56-60, and these figure are that enlarged drawing is to cooperate Figure 52.Cam follower 792 forms for the monomer molding with a moderate elastomeric polymer.Please consult Figure 56,57,58 and 59 especially, cam follower 792 a pair of pivot spare that extends laterally 794 is arranged and on it ora terminalis have fillet, this sandwiches the pivot spare supporter (not drawing among the figure) of being located at a pair of cooperation below the arm spare 752 to pivot spare 794, and 752 of this arm spares make cam 782 (seeing Figure 47) placed on it.The different types of the two cantilever parts 796 of the integrated elasticity of body of each figure expression one of Figure 56-60 and cam follower 792.The free end 798 of cantilever part 796 when pivot spare 794 sandwiches its position in order to hold below arm spare 752, the elasticity of making two antiform shapes of the condensate of cam follower 792 and cantilever part 796 becomes the rotation spring of cam follower 792, below the axis direction biasing arm spare 752 of its pivoting point, this rotation bias voltage is depicted as clockwise direction by Figure 56, and (it is the bottom that is sandwiched in arm spare 752 because of driven member 792 that this clockwise direction rotates bias voltage, make cantilever 796 be positioned at pivot spare 794 inboards of cam follower, just the arm spare between pivot spare 794 and the inboard hinge pivot connector 756 752 causes with spoon part driving shaft 758 junctions).These ledges 800 have a pair of quite firm ledge 800 to be subjected to the pivot shape emotionally of the effect restriction cam follower 792 of cantilever on the opposite side of the pivot spare 794 of cantilever 796, because can hold the spring bias voltage motion with restriction cam follower 792 of the bottom that is against arm spare 752 at last.These ledges 800 are clear expression in Figure 56,59 and 60.

Cam follower 792 is essentially a U-shaped body 802, and during operating position below cam follower 792 pivots are sandwiched in arm spare 752, this U-shaped body 802 is just stretched downwards with the bottom away from arm spare 752.The counter-clockwise direction bottom corner of cam follower body 802 has one 45 degree chamferings 804, when spoon spare arm 752 does that counter-clockwise direction is rotated so that spoon part 750 during toward left movement, as shown in figure 47, this chamfering 804 just assists 792 of cam followers on the guide surface 786 of cam 782.In Figure 56,57,58 and 60, can know the appearance of finding out chamfering 804.

The vertical ora terminalis 806 of the clockwise direction of cam follower body 802 is to form chamfering backward to the inboard of body 802.When vertical ora terminalis 806 when the arm spare 752 of spoon spare is moved right by leftmost position (clockwise direction), contact with the surface 788 of cam 782 as shown in figure 47, (inboard) pivot is moving backward can to assist cam follower body 802 like this.Vertical chamfering 806 can be known in Figure 57,58 and 60 and find out.

Move equally with Fig. 1-2 8 described embodiment and the described embodiment of Figure 32-39 (and other embodiment of the present invention of the spoon part of usage level and up-and-down movement) though spoon part 750 moves horizontally (making clockwise direction as benchmark or counter-clockwise direction moves with vertical spoon part driving shaft 758) by it on doing, will describe in detail below the accurate interaction of cam follower 792 and cam 782 with the basic principle that moves down:

(A) suppose the spoon part arm spare 752 be at its clockwise direction farthest as shown in figure 47,802 effects that can not be subjected to cam 782 of cam follower body, elastic cantilever 796 then spring ground bias voltage cam follower 792 away from the arm spare axis 758 of spoon spare.So make and draw slope 786 before cam follower body 802 and the cam 782 and align.

(B) when the arm spare 752 of spoon spare just begins to move as counter-clockwise direction after one group of crisp of frying sends into plate 748, the chamfering 804 of cam follower contact with cam ramps 786 and when arm spare 752 continues to move as counter-clockwise direction frame on the surface on slope 786.So just, move the vertical moving part 792 of cam on, it is that pivot is moving on the mind-set with its inboard hinge pivot connector 756 that the result causes arm spare 752, then just promotes the counter-clockwise direction ora terminalis of lateral hinge 754 and spoon part 750.

(C) when the bottom edge of cam follower body 802 reaches the ridge place 784 of cam, cam follower 792 top along cam under the situation that keeps its maximum height moves.By cantilever 796 effects cam follower 792 being born rotates outside spring bias voltage, is subject to ledge 800 and makes the following ora terminalis of cam follower body 802 align with cam ridge place 784.

(D) when arm spare 752 moves to extreme counter-clockwise direction place and makes spoonful part 750 almost reach the counter-clockwise direction end of oil groove 732, the clockwise vertical ora terminalis 806 of cam follower body 802 can reach cam ridge place 784 near hatching L V-L V place.The arm spare 752 of spoon part remakes counterclockwise moving so that spoon part 750 reaches its extreme counter-clockwise direction position a little just can make cam follower body 802 just fall away near the cam ridge place 784 the position shown in hatching L IV-L IV.

(E), arm spare 752 is remake just can move by clockwise direction as shown in figure 47 when mobile owing to be subjected to the reverse migration of crank mechanism 764+766+768.Cam follower body 802 is positioned at the inboard of cam 782 now shown in the cutaway view of Figure 54, spoon part 750 is then supported by the bottom of oil groove 732 as shown in figure 48.Continue to do clockwise direction just when arm spare 752 and rotate when overcoming the moving bias voltage of the outside pivot that causes because of elastic cantilever 796, cam face 788 makes cam moving part 792 move to the inboard pivot of cam 782 because of the assistance of vertical chamfering 806.Therefore cam follower 792 is when the arm spare 752 of spoon spare moves clockwise, and cam follower 792 keeps not being subjected to move effect on any to be influenced, until crisp fried and above-mentioned circulation when arriving initial situation again till.As previously mentioned, move and spoon the mobile of part 750 of arm spare 752 are not constant, but in whole moving range, do different minibreaks at variant some place, and with reference to being specified in the time-out location and time of previous embodiment of the present invention in moving, can be according to required and change.

Ventilation otch 720 in the last ora terminalis of lower house 716 had illustrated; The part of not drawing in the drawings is the many little ventilation elongated slot in the bottom surface of lower house 716, and these elongated slots are made the bottom surface of lower house 716 keep not contacting just bringing into play function with support surface (kitchen bench top etc.) by the installation heel piece 808 of being located at lower house 716 bottoms (seeing Figure 42-45).

Loam cake 718 comprises sealing 810 prominent on, to be fit to spoon part 750 at its crisp the highest dump position (suitable with the 4th embodiment that is shown in Figure 34 and 35).The inclined plane of going up prominent sealing 810 comprises a regularly arranged many little ventilation elongated slot 812, so that the steam and the oil smoke that produce when 710 operations of crisp manufacturing device are done the discharging of free convection formula.Sealing 810 is represented very clearly in Figure 40-46, ventilation elongated slot 812 then Figure 40,41,43,46 and the 50(latter look up by the bottom) in represent very clearly.Therefore the combination of the ventilating opening in the lower house 716 and air that the ventilating opening 812 in the loam cake 718 makes oil smoke and ventilation via crisp manufacturing device 710 by discharging.One filter (for example a slice activated carbon) can be installed in the inner face (or other suitable positions) of sealing 810, with oil smoke and the steam of cleaning via 812 dischargings of ventilation elongated slot.

The preceding right corner of laminate 712 is not covered by loam cake 718, but controls the appropriate location of each controller of operating 814 of crisp manufacturing device 710, and it is shown in Figure 40 and 46 especially.Controller 814 can comprise a main switch, and adjusts the speed and the time control of crisp manufacturing device 710 operations.
