Abstract

PURPOSE:To exhaust steam from the side surface and bottom surface of bread with simple constitution after the bread is baked by providing a rib body or a channel, which reaches from the bottom surface to an upper edge part, on the side surface of a kneading vessel and providing the rib body or channel on the bottom surface of the kneading vessel. CONSTITUTION:Plural rib bodies 20, which reach from the bottom surface to the upper edge part, are provided on the inside surface of a kneading vessel 13 and plural rib bodies 21 are provided with connecting the facing side surfaces of the kneading vessel 13. Since the above mentioned rib bodies 20 are provided, the steam to be out from the bread escapes through an interval, which is made between the bread and the root corner, etc., of the rib body 20, into an upper direction even when the bread is taken out from the kneading vessel 13 after the bread is baked. Thus, abnormality such as the deformation of the bread, which is caused since steam and moisture is returned to the bread, is not generated. The rib bodies 21 are provided in order to guide the steam from the bottom surface of the bread to the inside surface of the kneading vessel 13 with the same operation as the rib bodies 20.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic bread maker that automatically bakes bread.

Conventional technology Conventionally, in automatic bread machines that automatically perform a series of bread-making processes, deterioration of the outer crust and inner layer of the bread is avoided by driving a fan to exhaust steam after baking the bread. something is known.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention The above-mentioned conventional apparatus has a separate fan and drive source for discharging steam, which leads to an increase in the size and cost of the device.

The automatic bread maker of the present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and aims to provide an automatic bread maker that has a simple configuration and can discharge steam from the sides and bottom of the bread after bread baking. It is.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the automatic bread maker of the present invention is provided with ribs or grooves extending from the bottom to the upper end on the inner surface of the kneading container.

Additionally, ribs or grooves are provided on the bottom of the kneading container.

Function According to the above structure, after bread baking, steam is discharged upward through the roots or grooves of the ribs due to the action of the ribs or grooves on the inner surface of the kneading container.

Furthermore, the ribs or grooves on the bottom of the kneading container serve to effectively guide steam from the bottom of the pan to the inner surface of the kneading container.

Embodiment Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the accompanying drawings. In Figures 1 and 2, 1 is the automatic bread making machine main body (
(hereinafter referred to as the main body), 2 is a firing chamber mounted on the chassis 3 of the main body 1, and 4 is a motor. The firing chamber 2
A drive shaft 6 supported by a bearing 6 at the center of the bottom surface is provided with a large delta at the lower end and a connector 8 at the upper end. A small pulley 9 is provided at the lower end of the shaft 10 of the motor 4, and is connected to the dog pulley 7 via a belt 11. Reference numeral 12 denotes a container fixing guide provided on the chassis 3, which fixes a substantially rectangular parallelepiped-shaped kneading container 13 that is detachably installed in the baking chamber 2. 14
16 is a bearing that supports the shaft 16, and 17 is a connector on the kneading container 13 side provided at the lower end of the shaft 16. This connector 17 is detachably connected to the connector 8 and transmits driving force to the kneading blades 14. 18 is a heater provided inside the firing chamber 2 and around the lower part of the kneading container 13; 19 is a container lid of the main body 1;

Reference numeral 2o denotes a plurality of ribs provided on the inner surface of the kneading container 13 and extending from the bottom of the kneading container 13 to the upper end (at or near the upper end).

Reference numeral 21 denotes a plurality of rib bodies provided on the bottom surface of the kneading container 13 by connecting opposing sides of the kneading container 13.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained.

A kneading blade 14 is attached to the baking chamber 2, a kneading container 13 containing ingredients such as flour and water is set, and operation is started.

As a result, the rotation of the motor 4 is controlled by the small pulley 9. belt 11
．． and is transmitted to the large boolean connector 8. The dough is kneaded by rotating the kneading blade 14 through the connector 1.

Now, the dough thus kneaded undergoes the fermentation, degassing, molding fermentation, and baking processes, and the bread is automatically baked in the kneading container 13.

Here, since the inner surface of the kneading container 13 is provided with a rib body 2o extending from the bottom surface to the upper end, even if the bread is not taken out from the kneading container 13 after bread baking, the steam coming out of the bread can be
It escapes upward through the gap formed between the bread and the root corner of the rib body 2o. Therefore, abnormalities such as deformation of the bread due to steam and moisture returning to the bread do not occur. Furthermore, the rib body 21 on the bottom surface of the kneading container 13 is similar to the rib body 2 mentioned above.
The steam from the bottom of the bread is kneaded into the kneading container 13 in the same way as 0.
It leads to the inner side of the world.

Note that the shape of the lip body 20.21 is not limited to the rectangular cross section as in the embodiment, and the shape is not particularly limited. In addition, in order to improve the kneading effect, kneading container 1
The ribs provided halfway up the inner surface of the kneading container 13 may be extended to reach the upper end of the kneading container 13.

Next, an example of the third ward will be explained. In this embodiment, a plurality of grooves 23 are provided on the inner surface of the kneading container 22, extending from the bottom surface to the upper end.

24 is a rib body located between the grooves 23.

This rib body 24 is mainly intended to improve the kneading effect, but by extending to the upper end of the kneading container 22, it also plays the role of steam discharge.

Although not shown in this embodiment, the bottom surface of the kneading container 22 is provided with ribs or grooves as in the previous embodiment. Also in this embodiment, steam discharge is carried out in the same manner as described above.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the above embodiments, the automatic bread maker of the present invention allows the bread to be baked by using the ribs or grooves on the inner surface of the kneading container without having to immediately take out the bread after baking from the kneading container. ,
Steam from the sides of the pan can be vented. Also, the ribs or grooves on the bottom allow steam to escape from the bottom of the pan. However, it is possible to store bread for a certain period of time without using a fan or the like, and with a simple structure, without being adversely affected by steam.
