DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0015]
1 and 2 are views showing an embodiment of an apparatus for removing impurities in food according to the present invention.
[0016]
First, a restaurant kitchen will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, a cooking table 26 is disposed in a restaurant kitchen, and a heater 27 is provided in the cooking table 26.
[0017]
A cooking pan 25 is installed on the cooking table 26, and a content (liquid food) 25 a including meat, vegetables, and sauce in the cooking pan 25 is heated by a heater 27.
[0018]
As the contents 25a in the cooking pan 25, for example, beef bowl sauce or curry is considered. The cooking pan 25 is provided with a pair of handles 25b and 25b, and the cooking pan 25 can be carried and moved by the pair of handles 25b and 25b.
[0019]
A fat reservoir 30 is provided on the side of the cooking table 26.
[0020]
Next, an apparatus for removing impurities in food according to the present invention will be described.
[0021]
The impurity removing device 10 is provided in the vicinity of the cooking pan 25 on the cooking table 26. The impurity removing device 10 is for removing impurities such as fat from the contents 25 a in the cooking pan 25.
[0022]
That is, when the cooking pan 25 is heated by the heater 27, fat content is generated from the meat among the contents 25a in the cooking pan 25.
[0023]
In this case, since the fat becomes an impurity in the contents 25a, it is necessary to remove the fat by the impurity removing device 10.
[0024]
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the impurity removing device 10 is provided with a liquid tank 11 having a bottom plate 13 and a side plate 12, and is provided in the liquid tank 11 and divides the liquid tank 11 into two parts 11 a and 11 b. A vertical partition wall 14, an upper plate 17 provided above one portion 11 a of the liquid tank 11, and a pair of outlets 15 and 16 provided on the side plate 12 of the liquid tank 11 are provided.
[0025]
Among these, the liquid tank 11 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and the side plate 12 has four side surfaces 12a, 12b, 12c, and 12d. Of the four side surfaces 12a, 12b, 12c, and 12d, the heights of the two adjacent side surfaces 12a and 12b located outside the cooking table 26 are the same as the heights of the two adjacent side surfaces 12c and 12d located inside the cooking table 26. It is bigger than that.
[0026]
Thus, the impurities of the spoon 31 can be removed smoothly by making the height of the adjacent two side surfaces 12a and 12b located outside the cooking table 26 larger than the height of the adjacent two side surfaces 12c and 12d located inside. It can be moved to the device 10 side, and the contents 25a in the spoon 31 can be prevented from being scattered outside the impurity removing device 10.
[0027]
The vertical partition wall 14 provided in the liquid tank 11 forms a gap 14a between the bottom plate 13 and the one part 11a and the other part 11b in the liquid tank 11 communicate with each other through the gap 14a. It is like that.
[0028]
Further, the upper plate 17 provided on the one portion 11a of the liquid tank 11 extends downward from the side surface 12d of the side plate 12 toward the vertical partition wall 14, and covers the entire one portion 11a from above. Yes. For this reason, the content 25a dropped on the upper plate 17 by the spoon 31 falls along the upper plate 17 to the other portion 11b side.
[0029]
One side of the upper plate 17 is swingably attached to the side surface 12d of the side plate 12 by a swing shaft 18 provided above the side surface 12d, and the other side of the upper plate 17 is on the heavy bulkhead 14. Is riding. By swinging the upper plate 17 via the swing shaft 18 and opening one part 11a of the liquid tank 11, both the one part 11a and the other part 11b of the liquid tank 11 are reliably washed. Can do.
[0030]
An additional upper plate 17a extending downward from the side surface 12b of the side plate 12 toward the vertical partition wall 14 side may be provided on the other portion 11b of the liquid tank 11. The additional upper plate 17a has a bent portion 17b on one side, and is swingably attached to the side plate 12b via a swing shaft 18a. Further, the additional upper plate 17 a is locked by the bent portion 17 b coming into contact with the side plate 12 b, and a gap 17 c is formed between the other side and the upper plate 17.
[0031]
Furthermore, a net device 20 is installed on the liquid tank 11. The net body device 20 includes a net body 21, a hook 22 and a handle 23 attached to the net body 21.
[0032]
An operation gripping rod 19 is fixed to the side surface 12 c of the liquid tank 11.
[0033]
Next, the operation of the present embodiment having such a configuration will be described.
[0034]
First, as shown in FIG. 2, a cooking pan 25 is installed on a cooking table 26, and the cooking pan 25 is heated by a heater 27.
[0035]
At this time, among the contents 25a in the cooking pan 25, fat is generated from the meat, and this fat floats above the contents 25a.
[0036]
In order to remove such fat, during cooking, only the upper part of the contents 25 a in the cooking pan 25 is scooped up by the spoon 31 and put into the impurity removing device 10.
[0037]
The contents 25a thrown into the impurity removing apparatus 10 generally contains meat, vegetables, and expensive sauce in addition to fat.
[0038]
Among the contents put into the impurity removing device 10, meat and vegetables are caught by the net body 21 of the net body device 20, and other fats and sauces pass through the net body 21 into the liquid tank 11. enter.
[0039]
The meat and vegetables caught on the net 21 are then returned to the cooking pan 25.
[0040]
On the other hand, the fat and sagging charged into the liquid tank 11 travels through the upper plate 17 provided in the liquid tank 11 or directly into the other part 11 b of the liquid tank 11.
[0041]
The fat and dripping that have entered the other part 11b of the liquid tank 11 are separated into an upper fat 35 and a lower dripping 36 in the other part 11b. Next, the portion 36 accumulated in the lower portion 11b enters the one portion 11a through the gap 14a of the partition wall 14.
[0042]
Thereafter, the portion 36 accumulated in the one portion 11 a is discharged from the outlet 15 and returned to the cooking pan 25. At the same time, the fat component floating above the other portion 11 b is discharged from the outlet 16 and falls into the fat reservoir 30 to be accumulated.
[0043]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, the upper portion of the contents in the cooking pan 25 is scooped with the spoon 31 and only put into the impurity removing device 10, so that the fat content from the expensive portion 36 is reduced. 35 can be separated and only the fat 35 can be easily and reliably removed.
[0044]
In this case, since the two adjacent side surfaces 12c and 12d inside the impurity removal apparatus 10 are low, the spoon 31 can be smoothly moved into the impurity removal apparatus 10. At the same time, since the two adjacent side surfaces 2a and 2b on the outside are raised, the content 25a in the spoon 31 does not jump out. Furthermore, since the upper part 17a of the one part 11a of the liquid tank 11 is covered with the upper plate 17, the fat in the contents 25a is not returned from the one part 11a to the cooking pan 25 through the outlet 15. .
[0045]
In the above embodiment, the vertical partition 14 is fixedly provided in the liquid tank 11, but the vertical partition 14 may be movable in the liquid tank 11.
[0046]
That is, when the oil content 35 is small, the vertical partition 14 is moved to an appropriate position toward the other portion 11b. As a result, the region of the other portion 11b can be made small, and the fat 35 can be efficiently removed.
[0047]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, the liquid food can be introduced into the other part of the liquid tank simply by introducing the liquid food containing impurities into the impurity removing device. In the other part, impurities suspended in the liquid food are released from the outlet of the other part. The liquid food in the other part of the liquid tank enters one part through the gap between the vertical partition walls, and is then discharged from the outlet of the one part. In this way, impurities in the liquid food can be reliably removed.
