Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fully-automatic Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki baking and cooking apparatus, which spreads a crepe of wheat flour dissolved in water on an iron plate mainly heated by a gas heat source. Place fish meal, cabbage, bean sprouts, yakisoba, pork, etc. in order, turn over the whole and bake for a while, put the okonomiyaki ingredients mentioned above on the egg just before the raw egg dropped next to it and invert again. The present invention relates to an apparatus capable of automatically manufacturing a large amount of okonomiyaki of stable quality by completely automating the manufacturing process of okonomiyaki which has been completed by a machine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, as a method for manufacturing Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, the above-mentioned method is generally used, which is very time-consuming, complicated, and complicated, and requires skill. It was a thing.

Since most of the heat sources for firing are gas, the working environment is not so good due to incomplete combustion gas and high temperature atmosphere.

Therefore, there has been a great demand for an apparatus that can automatically produce a large quantity of okonomiyaki of stable quality and that can be produced in a comfortable environment.

[0005]

In view of the working environment, the present invention uses electric power as a heat source and automates each cooking process of Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, which was manually performed, by a machine to apply human hands. It is to provide an apparatus capable of producing a large amount of homogeneous okonomiyaki without having to do so.

[0006]

A preferred example of the present invention will be described. A transport mechanism for sequentially transporting a plurality of trays endlessly is provided on a gantry, and each tray is a flat tray below, The top consists of two bowl trays, one above and one below,
These are flat trays and bowl-shaped trays are inverted so that they can be polymerized.The heat sources of these trays are equipped with electromagnetic induction heaters, and while the trays are being conveyed, crepe supply / molding equipment, tray cleaning / oil Fully automatic Hiroshima-ryu which is equipped with coating device, cabbage (tempura etc.) measuring / supplying device, yakisoba baking / seasoning / supplying device, pork supply device, egg supplying / forming device, and okonomiyaki removing device. Consists of an okonomiyaki firing cooking device.

[0007]

[Operation] Next, each cooking process of Hiroshima style okonomiyaki will be explained. First, crepe supply / molding device, tray cleaning / oil application device, cabbage (mixed with tempura residue)
Set the necessary materials for the weighing / feeding device, yakisoba baking / seasoning / feeding device, pork feeding device, and egg feeding / forming device. At the same time, turn on the power, perform preheating operation, set the volume of the electromagnetic induction heating type heater, heating time, etc. in advance to predetermined values, and start automatic operation when the tray temperature reaches a temperature suitable for firing. Switch and start manufacturing okonomiyaki. Each step will be described with reference to FIG. 3. While the tray is moving from the position C to the position D, the tray cleaning / oil applying device cleans a part of the flat tray to apply oil, and at the position D. A thin circular crepe is produced on the flat tray by the crepe supply / molding device. Then, at position E, the yakisoba is first placed on the crepe by the automatic yakisoba-seasoning / feeding device, and then the cabbage is fed by the cabbage (mixed with freckles etc.) and feeding device. (Can be placed by stacking it on top of yakisoba). Then, at the position F, the pork is placed on the cabbage by the pork feeding device, and then the bowl type tray is stacked on the flat type tray by the reversing device, and the above-mentioned material is sandwiched. At the position L, the bowl type tray is removed from the flat type tray by the reversing device. While the tray is moving from the position L to the position M, the tray cleaning / oil applying device cleans the bowl-shaped tray portion and applies oil. At position M, a thin circular fried egg is made on the bowl-shaped tray by the egg supply / molding device, and at position O, the bowl-shaped tray is stacked on the flat tray by the reversing device and the fried egg is placed on the okonomiyaki material. It is piled up and crimped. At the position B, first, the bowl type tray is removed from the flat tray by the reversing device, and then the baked and cooked okonomiyaki is taken out by the okonomiyaki taking out device. At each position, if necessary, the okonomiyaki is completed by heating from above and from below by an electromagnetic induction heating type heater while making one revolution (several minutes).
