Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a boiler and fried food apparatus for performing an efficient cooking operation of noodles or fried foods.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, in a stand type or other soba shops, noodles are immersed in a water bath and cooked by boiling or warming. In the case of fried food, the food is immersed in an oil tank.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned conventional boiled and fried food apparatus, the state of boiled and fried noodles has been confirmed visually or by touch.

[0004] That is, in general, cooking is carried out relying on the experience of a cook, and for cooks with little experience, there is a risk of insufficient boiling or overcooking, and burns due to boiling water or heated oil. There was a danger.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and eliminates the above-mentioned problems, so that even cooks with little experience in cooking noodles or warming and other cooking operations such as frying are required. It is an object of the present invention to provide a boiler and fry apparatus that can be efficiently performed without using a boiler.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an essential part showing an embodiment of a boiler and fryer according to the present invention, FIG.
1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a main part showing a state in which a boiler and a fryer device according to the present invention is mounted on a body of a machine body.

The body 1 of the present invention to which the boil and fry apparatus is mounted is not shown in detail, but has a generally used configuration. For example, the body 1 has a predetermined depth above the body 1. A hot water tub 2 is supported, and a gas burner (not shown) for heating water or oil in the hot water tub 2 is provided below the hot water tub 2.

In the boiler and fryer according to the present invention, as shown in the embodiment of the drawings, the boiler and the fryer are shaken side by side with the water tub 2 supported by the body 1 of the body.
An appropriate number of lifting / lowering devices 3 for storage baskets and the like (hereinafter, referred to as “shake and the like”) are provided.

In the present invention, as shown in the embodiment of the present invention, the elevating device 3 uses a telescopic arm 4 combined with an X-shaped link. A support portion 6 such as a waving member 5 is provided above the support member 2.

The supporting part 6 of the waving and the like 5 is, for example,
It is configured in a ring shape to accept a separately prepared waving or the like. However, the above-mentioned shaking 5 and the like
Instead of being supported on the support portion 6, the device may be configured to directly swing the support portion 6.

In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the support portion 6 such as the swinging member 5 is not directly attached to the upper end of the telescopic arm 4 but is attached via a vertical rod 7.

That is, the vertical rod 7 is supported by a bearing 8 attached to the body 1 so as to be movable up and down, so that the vertical movement does not cause so-called blurring.

The lower end of the vertical rod 7 is connected to the upper end of the telescopic arm 4. That is, the telescopic arm 4
The intersection 9 at a suitable position below the body 1
The vertical rod 7 is connected to the upper end of the telescopic arm 4.

As described above, according to the present invention, the pin 1 is positioned at an appropriate position below the telescopic arm 4, that is, one-third from the lower end of the telescopic arm 4 as in the illustrated embodiment.
0 to support the pin 10 of the telescopic arm 4.
The vertical movement width above the vertical fulcrum is twice as large as the vertical movement width below. Therefore, the vertical movement stroke of the weight 11, which will be described later, may be short, and the entire lifting device 3 can be made compact.

Further, a weight 11 is attached to the other end of the telescopic arm 4.
Are connected and suspended, and the supporting portions 6
A stopper 12 that supports the weight 11 and prevents the weight 11 from rising when the weight 11 is raised when the weight is lowered
Is provided.

In the embodiment shown in FIG.
For example, using the solenoid 13 in which the plunger 14 keeps the projecting state by the force of the spring at all times, the tip of the plunger 14 can be brought into contact with the side surface of the weight 11 and slidable. That is, the plunger 14 is adapted to fit into the fitting hole 15 provided in the side surface of the weight 11 when the swinging or the like 5 is lowered, so that the weight 11 is prevented from being lowered.

Further, a limit switch 16 for detecting that the plunger 14 of the solenoid 13 fits into the matching hole 15 of the weight 11 is provided, and a timer 17 which is operated by a detection signal of the limit switch 16 is provided. In the drawing, reference numeral 18 denotes a support plate for regulating the lowering position of the weight 11.

Prior to use of the boiler and fryer apparatus of the present invention having the above-described structure, first, water or oil in a hot water tank 2 supported by the body 1 is heated by a gas burner or the like.

At this time, the weight 11 is lowered to be positioned on the support plate 18, and the telescopic arm 4 is extended, so that the support portion 6 such as the swinging member 5 is positioned above the water bath 2. ing.

Next, noodles or fried foods are sprinkled.
After being supported in the supporting portion 6 of the shaking member 5 and the like, the vertical rod 7 and the like are pushed down by hand, and the shaking member 5 is immersed in the water bath 2 for cooking. An appropriate appropriate time is set in the timer 17.

The supporting part 6 and the vertical rod 7 of the waving and the like 5
Is pushed down, the telescopic arm 4 connected to the lower end of the vertical rod 7 is expanded in the horizontal direction by the function of the pivot point of the pin 10 and contracted in the vertical direction.

As described above, when the vertical direction of the telescopic arm 4 is contracted, the weight 11 suspended at the lower end of the telescopic arm 4 is raised.

When the weight 11 is raised,
The plunger 14 of the solenoid 13, which is always in the protruding state by the force of the spring and is in contact with the side surface of the weight 11,
The weight 11 is adapted to the fitting hole 15 provided on the side surface of the weight 11 to prevent the weight 11 from descending. At the same time, the limit switch 16 operates and the timer 17 is operated.

Then, when a preset time elapses,
The operation of the timer 17 causes the solenoid 13 to be energized, and the plunger 14
It is made to escape from.

As a result, the weight 11 is lowered by its own weight, and at the same time, the lower end of the telescopic arm 4 connected to the weight 11 is lowered. The width in the direction is narrowed and the vertical direction is extended.

Then, the upper end of the telescopic arm 4 is raised, the supporting portion 6 of the waving member 5 is raised via the vertical rod 7, and the waving member 5 is pulled up from the bath 2. .

[0028]

According to the present invention, cooking of noodles such as boiled or fried foods can be automatically performed by a predetermined time set by a timer, so that it is necessary to rely on the experience of a cook as in the past. It can be performed very efficiently without any trouble, and furthermore, dangers such as burns can be prevented, and a safe effect can be obtained.
