Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigeration equipment, in particular to liquid quick-freezing equipment.
Background
Conventional refrigeration equipment uses air as a heat transfer medium, and this is limited by the low thermal conductivity of air and the long freezing time of food. During the freezing process, the extracellular solution first generates ice crystals, and under the action of vapor pressure, the intracellular water flows to the extracellular ice crystals, where larger ice crystals are formed and distributed unevenly. As proteins denature, the cell membrane is more prone to water loss, thereby further increasing the volume of ice crystals. Large ice crystals can damage the cell wall, causing cytoplasmic outflow, and thus a decrease in food quality. Meanwhile, when food is frozen, the freezing speed is gradually decreased from the surface to the center, and the uneven freezing speed distribution is easy to cause the reduction of the quality of the food. The frozen ice crystal can destroy the tissue structure after long-time freezing, cells can not be restored after thawing, cell fluid is lost in a large amount, the flavor and the quality of food are affected, and even the food can not be eaten.

2. Cavitation effect generated by ultrasonic wave in the freezing process protects tissue structure and cell structure of frozen food, namely the quality of frozen food. This is mainly manifested in the following aspects:
Firstly, the ultrasonic wave improves the heat transfer efficiency of the frozen food, so that the frozen food forms a plurality of tiny ice crystals in cells, thereby reducing the damage of the ice crystals to cell membranes; second, cavitation acts to induce nucleation in both the intracellular and extracellular matrices (the intracellular matrix will not be nucleated if there is insufficient supercooling in conventional freezing processes). Since crystal nuclei are formed in the inner and outer cell matrixes, water migration caused by osmotic pressure is constructed, so that deformation and structural damage of cells are reduced. Third, shock waves and microjets generated by cavitation bubbles of the ultrasonic waves when they collapse destroy the sharp mechanism of the ice crystals, thereby reducing the damage of the ice crystals to the cell membrane.
In combination, the utility model obviously improves the freezing speed of the frozen food and better protects the original quality of the food.
