Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an apparatus for producing a hydrous heated coagulated egg in which egg yolk liquid, egg white liquid or the like is heated and coagulated in hot water, and more particularly to an apparatus for producing a hydrous heated coagulated egg suitable for mass production.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In the technique of heat-treating eggs, in general households, egg yolk liquid or egg white liquid (hereinafter simply referred to as egg liquid) is placed in hot water in a pan and stirred until it contains a predetermined amount of water. Making heat-coagulated eggs is performed.
Also, an egg heating apparatus for producing a large amount of boiled eggs by transporting raw eggs with one shell into boiling water is known from Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 51-25854.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, it is difficult to mass-produce hydrated and heated coagulated eggs with a constant quality in a short time by the above-mentioned technique for household use, and this hot water is obtained using a large hot water bath in the apparatus described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 51-25585. When the egg liquid is processed to obtain a hydrous heat-coagulated egg, the egg liquid not only heat-coagulates into various shapes such as dumplings and flat shapes, but also contains a part that solidifies in a rubbery form. There is a problem that it cannot be mass-produced as a certain thing.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, so that egg liquid can be mass-produced as a water-containing heated coagulated egg with a constant quality. The upper layer portion in the hot water of the heating water tank that is disposed is passed through an endless chain conveyor that supports and mounts a large number of storage troughs or partition members, and bubbles are generated in the foam generating device disposed in the lower layer portion in the hot water. The solution of the problem is achieved by collecting the heat-coagulated egg in which the egg liquid supplied in the hot water is uniformly floated and flattened by an endless chain conveyor.
[0005]
Preferably, the storage trough is formed of a porous material or a net material so that water can permeate, and the partition member is preferably formed in a comb plate shape. On the other hand, the bubble generator is provided as a steam heating tube with a porous hole for heating hot water or a non-porous steam heating tube (conduit), which is generated from the steam discharged from the perforation of the heating tube or the surface of the conduit Since the egg liquid spreads and floats uniformly on the upper layer in the hot water due to the bubbles generated, it can be continuously conveyed and recovered by the endless conveyor, which is preferable.
[0006]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an outline of an embodiment of the present invention. A hot water bath 2 provided on a gantry 1 has an overflow tank provided with a drain socket 5 on one end side of which hot water can overflow. 4 is arranged. An endless chain conveyor 12 that supports and accommodates the storage basket 6 via a support 12 'and a support base 19 is suspended on a drive motor 11, a drive sprocket 9, a lower sprocket 16, and an upper sprocket. The upper part of the tank 2 and the lower part of the hot water tank 2 are rotated in the direction of arrow A.
[0007]
As shown in the enlarged perspective view of the transfer chain portion in FIG. 4, the housing rod 6 is made of a porous material as a punching metal, and the permeation of the hot water in the hot water tank 2 by the pores 20 on the wall surface thereof. Is fixed to the heel support 19 by a stopper 6 '.
[0008]
Above one end of the hot water tank 2, an egg liquid pipe 21 is disposed, and at the egg liquid outlet of the egg liquid pipe 21, a delivery means such as a tilting and swinging tray (not shown) is disposed. The egg liquid is uniformly dropped into the storage bowl 6 in hot water.
[0009]
Further, a non-porous steam pipe 13 made of stainless steel material is arranged in a serpentine shape in a direction perpendicular to the conveyor 12 in the lower layer in the hot water tank 2, and fine bubbles are generated on the surface of the steam pipe 13. It is left as crude steel without polishing as much as possible.
FIG. 5 shows another embodiment of the present invention as a cross-sectional view. In place of the container 6 in the previous embodiment, a partition member 22 is supported and mounted on the chain conveyor 12, and the foam generating device 13 is replaced. This is a steam pipe 13 'with holes.
[0010]
In the figure, parts common to the embodiments will be described with the same symbols. In the figure, 18 is an exhaust duct for steam evaporating from the hot water tank 2, and 17 is its steam inlet. Reference numeral 14 denotes a safety cover for protecting the piping of the steam pipe 13.
[0011]
Next, the operation will be described.
With the egg liquid pipe 21, the egg liquid is stored in the storage tanks 6, 6, 6... In the hot water tank 2 or between the partition members 22, 22, 22. The bubbles or vapor bubbles from the bubble generating device (steam pipe) 13 disposed in the lower layer 2 are uniformly diffused and floated to the upper layer part. The floated egg liquid is equally divided by the storage basket 6 or the partition member 22 of the chain conveyor 12 that is rotationally driven in the direction of the arrow A, and is heated and conveyed to the recovery area at the other end of the hot water tank 2 and arranged outside the hot water tank 2. It is taken out and collected in the perforated collection tank 23.
[0012]
At that time, the egg liquid does not become a dumpling shape or solidifies like rubber during heating and conveyance, and is produced as a hydrous heat-coagulated egg containing a predetermined moisture content and having an appropriate texture. The heat-coagulated egg conveyed by the container 6 or the partition member 22 flows down by its own weight at the other end of the hot water tank 2, that is, the reverse area of the chain conveyor 12, and is collected.
[0013]
In this invention, when using this, the said effect | action is performed continuously and is appropriately collect | recovered as a water-containing heating coagulated egg.
[0014]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, the egg liquid charged in the hot water bath is diffused and floated to the upper layer by air bubbles, and this is transported and collected in the hot water bath by the storage basket or partition member supported and mounted on the chain conveyor. Therefore, the egg liquid does not coagulate into a rubber lump in hot water, and can be mass-produced as a hydrous heat-coagulated egg with a constant quality.
In addition, the structure is simple, and the device can be easily cleaned and cleaned after production.
[0015]
In addition, the water-containing heat-coagulated egg produced by the apparatus of the present invention can be used as it is as a sucking material, or by appropriately mixing with dashi juice etc. and refrigerated storage, Can be used in large quantities at any time.
