Description

  The present invention relates to a business-use boiler that boiles noodles such as buckwheat and udon.

  FIG. 1 shows an example of a conventional apparatus for boiling noodles at a store that provides noodles. What is shown in FIG. 1 is a brooming device for boiling soba. That is, the buckwheat pot 1 is made of a metal that is almost hemispherical, filled with hot water 2, and the raw buckwheat 4 is put into the hot water 1 heated by the gas burner 3 provided under the buckwheat pot 1, The soba 4 is boiled while swimming (swimming) in the hot water, but the flame of the gas burner 3 hits one side so that the hot water 2 in the soba pot 1 causes a rotating jet by convection. It is supposed to be heated. As a result, when the heating power of the gas burner 3 is increased and heated, the boiling bubbles rise upward from the heating surface, a large rotating vortex is generated, and the introduced soba 4 is boiled while slowly rotating.

  While boiling, it is said that it is better to boil the water at a mean temperature of about 98 ° C. by slightly lowering the boiling water temperature from 100 ° C. while suppressing boiling by replenishing water from the water outlet 5.

  If you go up with a kite, you will scoop up the buckwheat 4 that was swimming in the hot water 2 in the buckwheat pot 1 with the scoop 6.

  In this method, there is one using an electric heater instead of the gas burner 3, but also in that case, the heating of the electric heater is configured to be concentrated on one side of the buckle 1.

  In this way, the buckwheat pot 1 is locally heated with the gas burner 3 or the electric heater, the hot water 2 of the buckwheat pot 1 is boiled, and the soba and udon are put on the flow of the rotating jet by the boiling jet and are rotated. There is no uniform wrinkle.

  Another simple method for generating a jet in the tank 7 is the one shown in FIG. That is, a structure in which a commercially available pump 9 driven by a pump motor 8 is connected to the tank 7 by a suction pipe 10 and a discharge pipe 11, and a drain port 12 is provided on the bottom surface of the tank 7 by this fence. .

  Further, Patent Document 1 proposes that the boiling jet is raised by another jetting apparatus without boiling the hot water 2 and the soba 4 is boiled. In addition, a method in which six jets of squirts are used to spout six jets against the squirrel, and the noodles are boiled while swimming while applying a jet is patent-pending as Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-063212. . That is, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the boiled noodle tank 13 has a box shape opened upward, and a jet generation box 15 is detachably attached to the upper surface of the bottom surface 14 of the noodle tank 13. ing. The jet generating box 15 has a horizontal jet concentrating plate 19 having a jet hole 18 positioned below each of a plurality of noodle baskets 17 in which noodles 16 as cooking objects are stored, and a suction hole 20 on a vertical surface. The formed pressure generation chamber plate 21 is integrally formed.

  In this way, the pressure generating chamber 22 is formed by fixing the jet generating box 15 to the bottom surface 14 of the noodle tank 13 with the boil.

  In the pressure generating chamber 22, one end of a horizontal shaft 23 having a predetermined length is fixed to the center of the suction hole 20 so as to coincide with the center, and the horizontal shaft 23 is made of a magnetic material. A rotor 24 and an impeller 25 integral with the rotor 24 are rotatably mounted.

  Next, a plurality of fixed shafts 26 are erected and fixed to the outer surface of the side surface of the boiled noodle tub 13, and these fixed shafts 26 constitute a drive device whose axis is aligned with the horizontal shaft 23. A jet motor 27 is fixed. The jet motor 27 is provided with a planar magnet plate 28 that is magnetically coupled to the rotor 24. In this way, the pressure generator 29 is formed inside the jet flow generation box 15.

Japanese Patent Publication No.59-24810

  In the conventional structure shown in FIG. 1, as described above, the buckwheat pot 1 is locally heated by the gas burner 3 or the electric heater, the hot water 2 of the buckwheat pot 1 is boiled, and the flow of the soba and udon is rotated by the boiling jet. When the boiling steam rises from the upper surface of the hot water 2 while boiling the hot water 2 and is continuously boiled, More than 20 liters of water could be evaporated in one hour, the working room was filled with steam, and the environment was near the worst. Moreover, in order to raise | generate a boiling jet, the thermal power of the excessive gas burner 3 or the electric heating capacity of the electric heater was required. The energy required to cause this boiling jet is a heat amount several times the amount of heat required to boil the buckwheat 4 or udon.

  Next, according to the structure shown in FIG. 2, it is difficult to divide the low-pressure large-capacity jet into two places and boil it in the tank 7. Even if the pump 9 having a large flow rate and low pressure performance is used, the cross-sectional areas of the suction pipe 10 and the discharge pipe 11 must be increased. In such a configuration, the piping space becomes enormous and cannot be put to practical use. Therefore, the piping is finally connected by a pipe having an inner diameter of 20 to 30 mm, and a large flow rate cannot be obtained, so that the function can be satisfied. I can't get anything.

  In addition to such problems, food scraps and starchy substances may accumulate on the impeller and mechanical seal in the pump 9, and the inside of the pump 9 is cleaned daily by the user. It is impossible. Therefore, the pump function is reduced in a short time.

  Further, a serious disadvantage of this structure is that, when the hot water in the tank 7 is drained from the drain port 12 with the boiling water, the slight hot water remaining in the pump 9 cannot be discharged. Even if it remains, it may rot by the next day, and the bacteria may grow and be mixed in the hot water of the next day. In equipment for processing this kind of food, it is absolutely necessary to prevent hygiene problems by simple cleaning, but the structure shown in FIG. It will not satisfy, and it can be said that it is lacking in the appropriateness as a product.

  Next, the structure shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 tries to increase the transmission torque by reducing the distance between the planar magnet plate 28 and the rotor 24 as much as possible, but the attraction is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Since the force is generated between the facing magnets, the force in the thrust direction is increased, and consideration is given to improving the durability of the thrust washer. In particular, care must be taken to maintain durability when rotating 3000 times a minute in hot water.

  Moreover, although the apparatus which generates a jet in a hot water tank with a jet generating apparatus is also considered, for example, when boiling noodles for 8 persons when a large amount is to be cooked, even if it is 250 g for 1 person, the whole is 250 g. × 8 = 2kg, and in order to loosen and turn such a large amount of food to be boiled in boiling water, the capacity of a commercially available pump or the like is insufficient. It is difficult to get the state.

  An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. First, an electric heater 31 is attached to the lower part of the hot water bath 30, and the hot water 32 in the hot water bath 30 is controlled to be kept at 96 ° C. by a temperature controller (not shown). As shown in FIG. 8, the two scissors 33 are arc-shaped at the bottom, and the entire side surfaces 34 on both sides are made of a metal mesh. A half of the portion bent in an arc shape is a net 35 made of a metal mesh, and the latter half is a plate-like surface 36 made of a stainless steel thin plate. A large number of small holes 37 are partially formed in the plate-like surface 36. In addition, a rotation center shaft 38 is fixed to one side of the flange 33 by a shaft-shaped member bent in a U-shape, and the rotation center shaft 38 is bent in a Z-shape and is a restraining plate 39. Therefore, the rotation center is restrained so as not to shift. Further, a handle 40 made of a shaft-like member is integrally provided on the other side of the scissors 33. Two scissors 33 are attached independently in parallel to the hot water bath 30.

  Next, two lids 41 are provided side by side in the upper part of the hot water bath 30 so as to correspond to the bowl 33. These lids 41 are joined by extension plates 43 of two hinges 42, and have a handle 44 to cover the hot water bath 30 with the hinges 42 as a rotation center, or noodles to be cooked as boiled When taking out 45, it contacts with the stopper 46 and is comprised so that it may be hold | maintained in a substantially perpendicular state.

  The hot water bath 30 is covered with an exterior box 47, and a heat insulating material 48 for preventing heat dissipation is attached to the outside of the hot water bath 30. A base 49 for storing a temperature controller, a timer, and the like, which are electric control units, is provided below the outer box 47, and the height of the hot water bath 30 having the best workability is maintained by the four adjustment legs 50. It is configured to be able to. A drain port 51 is attached to the side surface of the hot water bath 30 so that the drain port 51 can be opened and closed by a lever or a handle (not shown).

  Next, on the side surface of the hot water bath 30, two jet motors 52 are provided for each scissor 33 with four struts 53 welded to the side surface. The rotor 54 of the jet motor 52 drives a drive magnet 55 provided on a cylindrical inner surface and a drive body 56 that is integrally formed with the drive magnet 55 and rotates. A driven magnet 57 that is driven by being magnetically coupled to face the driving magnet 55 is held at the center by a rotating shaft 59 fixed to the center of the partition wall 58, and is integrated with the driven magnet 57. Thus, the rotor 61 having the impeller 60 formed on the rotor is rotated. The rotor 61 is detachably held by a knurled screw 62 that is screwed to the rotating shaft 59. By removing the knurled screw 62, the rotor 61 can be easily removed.

  A jet box 63 for generating a jet is provided on the outer periphery of the rotor 61. A suction hole 64 is opened at the center of the jet box 63 and is attached to the side surface of the hot water bath 30 by a thumbscrew 65 and a column 66. A jet outlet 67 is opened at the lower part of the jet box 63, and the jet blown out from the jet outlet 67 is blown out in the direction of the arrow toward the center of the hot water bath 30 by the jet guide plate 68. The angle is determined as follows.

  A magnet 69 is attached in the vicinity of the hinge 42 of the lid 41. When the lid 41 is closed, the magnetic sensitive switch 70 attached to the inner side surface of the water bath 30 is closed, and a signal is sent to a timer (not shown), During the set time of the timer, the jet motor 52 is set to operate.

Thus, in the jet generating device of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, a protruding portion 72 having a cylindrical peripheral wall 71 with a bottom is formed on the side wall of the hot water bath 30 and protrudes outward. A driven magnet 57 facing the inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall 71 is disposed on the central axis of the inner surface of the projecting portion 72 and a rotor 61 having an impeller 60 is detachably attached. A jet box 63 having a guide plate 68 is attached, and a driving magnet 55 is connected to the motor 52 on the central axis of the outer surface of the projecting portion 72 and is positioned on the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall 71 and faces the driven magnet 57. There is a feature in that a driving body 56 having the above is provided. The features of such a jet generator are listed below.
(1) The jet box 63 has a structure that can be easily removed by loosening the two thumbscrews 65 in the hot water bath 30, and the cleaning property is very good. A discharge hole 73 is formed in the lower part of the jet box 63, and at the same time as the hot water 32 is discharged from the hot water bath 30, no single drop remains.
(2) The impeller 60 integrated with the driven magnet 57 can also be easily taken out and cleaned when the knurled screw 62 is removed.
(3) Although the protrusion part 72 which has the cylindrical surrounding wall 71 exists in the side surface of the hot water tank 30, a remaining hot water is discharged without remaining in this.
(4) Since the jet generator does not have piping, there is no flow rate (pressure) loss due to the piping, and it is optimal as a low-pressure, large-flow jet device. Incidentally, the diameter of the suction hole 64 is 50 mm (19.6 cm ² ), the discharge area is 12 × 100 = 12 cm ^2, and almost no flow loss occurs, and the pumping ability of the impeller 60 can be exhibited 100%.
(5) Compared to the conventional flat disk magnet coupling method described with reference to FIG. 4 described above, since the attractive force due to the magnetic force does not act in the thrust direction, the thrust force acting on the rotating shaft is zero.

  Thus, in this embodiment, one of the purposes is to improve the environment of the kitchen. In other words, in a soba and udon specialty store, boil 8-10 people at a time and boil them, then chill them with cold water and tighten them. It was. In the present embodiment, for example, an object is to provide a device that can be used by an unfamiliar part-time job as quickly as a skilled worker.

  First, in the hot water bath 30, the tubs 33 are placed in parallel so that the tubs 33 can be taken in and out independently, and each side of the tub 33 is filled with soba noodles for 8 to 10 servings (1.5 by weight). -2.0 kg) and the lid 41 is closed, the jet flow device is activated, and when the preset timer time has elapsed, the jet flow stops and a buzzer sounds to notify the buzzer. Since this lid 41 is provided for each bowl 33, the start and stop of the jet device is performed for each bowl 33 by opening and closing the lid 41.

  During this time, since the lid 41 is closed, there is almost no rise of steam. The temperature of the boiling water 32 is controlled to 96 ° C., and there is no pressure of boiling steam as in boiling, so even if the lid 41 is lightly covered, steam does not leak and rise.

  Since the outside of the hot water bath 30 is insulated by the heat insulating material 48 and there is no rise of steam, the amount of heat required is only the amount of heat for keeping the input food at 96 ° C. Decreases to 1/2 to 1/3 of the boiling type. In the case of the boiling type, since the noodles must be danced with a boiling jet, enormous amount of heat needs to be applied, whereas in the case of this embodiment, a very small amount of heat is sufficient.

  In addition, the jet device according to the present embodiment is a low-pressure and large-flow jet device having no pipe loss, and it is also compatible with one jet device corresponding to the kite 33 with one kite. Therefore, a sufficient jet flow is obtained if necessary.

  The boiled rice cake 33 shown in FIG. 8 has a structure for rotating the noodles for 8 to 10 people in the boiling water 32. That is, since the side receiving the jet is the net 35, the jet enters the bowl 33 without resistance and tries to lift and shake the noodles. If the opposite side is also the net 35, it is possible that the noodles are pressed and do not rotate. However, in this embodiment, the bowl 33 is a plate-like surface 36 of a stainless steel plate. When the noodles are swung around, the noodles rotate and no unevenness occurs. The small hole 37 formed in the plate-like surface 36 is for improving drainage of noodles when the heel 33 is lifted and rotated around the rotation center shaft 38 when the heel is raised. . Furthermore, the handle 40 provided on the scissors 33 is for lifting the scissors 33 when the scissors are lifted, but this handle 40 is exposed to the outside even when the lid 41 is closed. Care is taken not to be heated by the temperature of the hot water 32.

  Furthermore, the jet guide plate 68 provided at the jet outlet 67 plays an important role, and the setting of this angle is extremely important.

  In addition, three electric heaters 31 are arranged in a plane below the hot water bath 30, and the amount of heat generated by the electric heater 31 is dissipated to the hot water 32 at 100% so that the thermal efficiency is 100%. It can be said that there is. Three electric heaters 31 have a sufficient cooking capacity of 7.5 kw. In the conventional boiling type, 9 kW or more and 12 kW are required.

  Next, the jet flow generating device is compactly attached to the side surface of the hot water bath 30, and it is not particularly necessary to enlarge the hot water bath 30 for the jet generating portion in the hot water bath 30. The space was effectively used, and the equipment could be compacted. The floor area is 54cm in front and 58cm in depth, and is very compact. The length of the adjustment leg 50 is as long as 30cm when the height of the top surface is 80cm. . Moreover, since the height of the hot water bath 30 portion is 32 cm, a desktop type is possible by devising the drain port.

  As a result of testing the prototype in this example, a jet of a sufficient level was obtained from the jet generator, and even when 8 to 10 servings of raw buckwheat were put into the bowl 33 with a single bowl, When swung around in hot water at 96 ° C, the boiled texture was almost the same as that of the conventional boiling type. In addition, the amount of electricity used is ½ compared to the boiling type open type, the amount of water used is reduced to 1/2 to ３, and the amount of steam generated is reduced to １ ／. .

  Utilizing such characteristics, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, a gas heat exchanger 74 is integrally formed at the lower part of the hot water bath 30, a gas burner 75 is disposed below, and an exhaust pipe 76 is disposed on the back surface. By attaching it, it is possible to make a noodle machine with a gas type rice cake. In this case, it is a matter of course that a non-boiling type in which the gas burner 75 is controlled so that the temperature of the boiling water 32 is 96 ° C. and the temperature of 96 ° C. is always kept.

  In the case of the gas type, when the gas heat consumption of the gas burner 75 is 10,000 kcal or less, it is desirable that the gas burner 75 be 10,000 kcal or less because it is not subject to the regulations of the Fire Service Act. If the output of the gas burner 75 is 9,500 kcal and the heat efficiency of the heat exchanger is 70%, the actual heat amount is 6,650 kcal, which corresponds to 7.7 kw of the electric heater 31. It will have approximately the same heating capacity as 7.5 kw of 31.

  Even in the case of the gas type, it is considered that the amount of gas used is halved by controlling the temperature of boiling water 33 to 96 ° C.

  Also in the case of such a gas type, the length of the adjusting leg 50 can be 20 cm, and sufficient cleaning properties can be provided.
