Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a fryer for frying.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional frying fryer, for example, a fryer as shown in FIG. 2 is known. This fryer for frying comprises a conveyor 7 to which a raw material holding frame 71 is attached and an oil tank 8 in which a frying process is carried out. The conveyor 7 has a lower transition part 72 to move inside the oil tank 8. It was hung around.

Therefore, when the raw material dough 91 is supplied into the raw material holding frame 71 of the conveyer 7 in the raw material supply unit 90, the raw material dough 91 is still held by the raw material holding frame 71 as the conveyer 1 rotates. Transition. Then, when the raw material dough 91 moves to the lower side transition portion 72, the lower side transition portion 72 moves inside the oil tank 8, so that here the raw material dough 9
1 is fried and heated, and the frying process is performed to form a fried product 92. Next, the deep-fried product 92 that has passed through the lower transition portion 72 and exited from the oil tank 8 is unloaded from the raw material holding frame 71 of the transport conveyor 7 at the product take-out portion 93.

[0004]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional fryer for frying, only the lower transition portion 72 of the conveyor 7 moves in the oil tank 8 to carry out the frying stroke, and the upper transition portion. Most of 73 is an empty transport portion. For this reason, the length used for the actual transportation in the transport conveyor 7 is
It is about half of the total length. Therefore, conventionally, there has been a problem that the machine length of the fryer for frying is unnecessarily long, which is an obstacle to downsizing due to the shortening of the machine length.

Further, since the conventional oil tank 8 is one,
The oil temperature is adjusted so that the first half portion becomes the low temperature heating area and the latter half portion becomes the high temperature heating area. As described above, if an attempt is made to set a low-temperature heating region and a high-temperature heating region in one oil tank 8, it is difficult to control the oil temperature, and the oil temperature becomes unstable, resulting in uneven frying.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and it is possible to effectively use the entire length of the conveyor to reduce the empty conveyor portion.
It can be made compact by shortening the machine length,
Another object of the present invention is to provide a fryer for frying, which can properly control the oil temperature and obtain a frying product without frying unevenness.

[0007]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a fryer for frying of the present invention comprises a conveyer conveyor to which a raw material holding frame is attached, and an upper oil tank and a lower oil tank arranged vertically. The transport conveyor is wound around so as to form an upper transition section that transitions in the upper oil tank and a lower transition section that transitions in the lower oil tank.

In this fryer for frying, there is a mode in which one oil tank is formed for low temperature heating and the other oil tank is formed for high temperature heating.

In the fryer for frying constructed in this manner, the frying process is carried out at both the upper transition section for transition in the upper oil tank and the lower transition section for transition in the lower oil tank. In this way, since the frying process is performed at the upper transition portion and the lower transition portion of the transport conveyor, almost the entire length of the transport conveyor is used for actual transport, and there is no empty transport portion. Therefore, the entire length of the transfer conveyor can be effectively used, and the machine length can be shortened to achieve compactness.

When one of the oil tanks is formed for low temperature heating and the other oil tank is formed for high temperature heating, a low temperature frying process is performed in the low temperature heating oil tank, and then the oil tank is changed to high temperature heating. The high temperature frying process will be performed in the oil tank. In this way, since the oil tanks for low temperature heating and high temperature heating are changed, the oil temperature of each oil tank can be properly controlled, and a deep-fried product without uneven frying can be obtained.
