BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an endless chain oil receiving device in a vinegar washing device for continuously immersing fish pieces for sushi in vinegar.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Fish pieces for sushi must be stored for several days before eating or picking up for several days so that they do not deteriorate or decay. The vinegar in the vinegar, wait until the vinegar is properly soaked in the fish pieces, remove it from the vinegar and finish vinegar washing.Place the vinegar-washed fish pieces on sushi rice and pressurize until eating. However, after putting fish pieces into the top vinegar tank, the next piece of fish meat cannot be vinegared until the vinegar permeates the fish pieces and removes the fish pieces with the vinegar infiltration. When the vinegar was washed with vinegar, a fish crew had to be dipped in vinegar with one worker each in several top vinegar tanks. In addition, there was a problem that the soaking time of fish pieces was not constant. Therefore, the applicant has disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 57-53174 that the fish pieces are continuously transferred by a conveyor, and the fish pieces pass through the top vinegar tank during the transfer of the fish pieces.
It was proposed that the vinegar washing of fish pieces could be saved.

[0003]

The problem to be solved is that, during the transfer of the fish piece, fish or meat oil or the like attached to the endless chain may enter the top vinegar tank and attach to the fish piece. Is a point.

[0004]

According to the present invention, oil is attached to a new piece of fish meat by forming an oil receiving device on the side of the top vinegar tank and below the endless chain. And a device for quickly removing the oil and the like.

[0005]

FIG. 1 is a front view showing an embodiment of an endless oil receiving device according to the present invention.
Further, a driven shaft 2B parallel to the drive shaft 2A is supported at a rear portion, and chain wheels 2a, 2a are provided at both ends of the drive shaft 2A, and chain wheels 2b, 2b are provided at both ends of the driven shaft 2B, respectively. 2A
Endless chains 3A and 3B are respectively stretched between the chain wheel 2a of the driven shaft 2B and the chain wheel 2b of the driven shaft 2B, and between the other chain wheels 2a and 2b, and inside the endless chains 3A and 3B which are stretched in parallel. At opposite positions, support rods 4A projecting inward from endless chains 3A, 3B,
4B are attached at regular intervals P, and support rods 4A,
The tray 2 of the fish piece F is pivotally supported between B, and the conveyor 2 is constituted by the left and right endless chains 3A, 3B and the tray 5 pivotally supported between the endless chains 3A, 3B.

On the other hand, a bottom vinegar tank 7 which is slightly wider than the width of the tray and has a depth enough to sink the tray 5 is provided at a lower portion of the lower side of the conveyor 2 through which the tray 5 passes. A supply table 8 for fish pieces F is provided at the front, and a take-out table 9 for fish pieces F is provided at the front, so that the supply table 8 side of the top vinegar tank 7 is deep and the take-out table 9 side is gradually shallow. A drain pipe 12 is provided at the bottom 7a on the 8 side, and a vinegar storage tank 10 is provided at the top of the conveyor 2,
A supply pipe 11 for vinegar V is disposed in the top vinegar tank 7 from the tank 10. A saucer 5 pivotally supported between the endless chains 3A and 3B of the conveyor 2 has a bottom wall 5E having an infinite number of through holes 5e. The upper portions of the leading edge 5C and the trailing edge 5D are opened, and supporting arms 5A and 5B are provided on both sides to support the supporting rods 4A and 4B protruding from the endless chains 3A and 3B of the conveyor 2, and the entire receiving tray 5 is provided. The boat bottom type is formed, and several detachable eye plates 6 are placed on the upper part of the tray 5.

[0007] Fish and meat oil and the like adhere to the endless chains 3A and 3B and adhere to the fish meat pieces F through the top vinegar tank 7 or directly, so that the width of the top vinegar tank 7 is reduced. A substantially U-shaped oil receiving device is configured to be disposed inside the left and right endless chains 3A, 3B, and at the side of the top vinegar tank 7 and below the endless chains 3A, 3B. 13 are formed.

Since the oil receiving device 13 is formed along the side surface of the top vinegar tank 7, the oil receiving device 13 is driven from the drive shaft 2A side to the driven shaft 2B.
It is inclined toward the side. Therefore, this oil receiving device 13
The oil and the like that has fallen into the driven shaft 2B flows to the driven shaft 2B side, further flows into the drain pipe 12 connected to the oil receiving device 13, and is appropriately discharged.

[0009]

The operation of the endless oil receiving device of the present invention is as follows.
The tray 5 is always suspended by its own weight so that the bottom wall 5E is lower, without distinction between the tension side and the relaxation side of the conveyor 2, and the tray 5 is located forward of the driven shaft 2B side at the rear of the body 1. When moving to the drive shaft 2A side, the driven shaft 2B side sinks deeply into the vinegar S of the top vinegar tank 7 and gradually rises from the vinegar S as it reaches the drive shaft 2A side. When moving away from the inside of S and moving from the drive shaft 2A side to the driven shaft 2B side, it passes over the top vinegar tank 7. After the conveyor 2 is started as described above, the fish piece F is placed on the tray 6 of the tray 5 which is sequentially shifted on the supply stand 8 side. The vinegar S that has passed through the vinegar S contained in the tray 7 and penetrated into the perforated plate 6 through the through hole 5e of the tray 5 or the vinegar S that penetrated the front and rear edges 5C and 5D of the tray 5 to enter the fish meat When the pieces F are uniformly washed with vinegar, and the saucer 5 rises as the saucer 5 approaches the drive shaft 2A side, the vinegar S that has entered the saucer 5 is discharged into the top vinegar tank 7 through the through hole 5e and fish pieces A part of the vinegar S penetrated into F is also shaken off, is separated from the vinegar S when reaching the drive shaft 2A, and the fish piece F is loaded from the receiving tray 5 which sequentially moves on the take-out stand 9 side. Remove the placed eye plate 6. Transfer the vinegar-washed fish pieces F on the saucer 6 removed from the saucer 5 onto sushi rice, place the saucer 6 on the original saucer 5 again, and continuously wash the fish pieces F with vinegar. I do. During the above-mentioned continuous movement, even if fish or meat oil adheres to the endless chains 3A and 3B, the oil is received from the endless chains 3A and 3B by the oil receiving device 13 disposed below the endless chains 3A and 3B. Is discharged to the outside.

[0010]

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the endless chain oil receiving device of the present invention, a worker supplying fish pieces to the saucer at the rear of the body and an operation of removing fish meat washed with vinegar at the front. Member of 2
By the name, since the fish pieces can be continuously vinegar-washed, the vinegar washing of the fish pieces can be labor-saving and the working efficiency can be significantly improved. Moreover, since the fish pieces to be vinegar-washed pass through the vinegar in the top vinegar tank while being transferred by the conveyor having a constant rotation speed, the vinegar-washing degree of the fish pieces is made uniform and intuitively performed. It does not require a high degree of ripening like vinegar washes. In addition, by adjusting the speed of rotation of the conveyor, the degree of vinegar washing can be changed according to the change of the climate, and vinegar washing suitable for storage can be performed. Thus, it is possible to prevent oils such as fish and meat adhering to the endless chains from adhering to new pieces of fish meat, and to promptly remove the oils and the like.
