Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to a processing method for loosening the fibers of raw or semi-dried squid legs to make them easier to tear and eat.

PRIOR ART Various products made from squid legs are known, one of which is one in which the squid legs are crushed by a roller to loosen the fibers of the squid legs.

Problems that the invention aims to solve When putting the legs of a squid on a roller, feeding the legs vertically is not very effective in loosening the fibers. The paper was fed horizontally to the rollers, but even with this method, the legs are only loosened so that they spread in the width direction, so even though it is easy to tear the paper vertically, it is not easy to tear it into appropriate lengths.

This was made in view of the above points of the present invention, and makes it easier to tear squid legs into small pieces.

A solution to the problem, that is, the present invention is characterized in that the squid's legs are passed between rollers for wave processing to perform wave processing in a direction intersecting the fibers.

The rollers for wave processing here refer to those represented by the toothed roller shown in Fig. 1 and the corrugated roller shown in Fig. 2, preferably the upper and lower rollers are drive rollers, and more preferably one of them. One of the rollers is a variable roller whose rotation speed can be adjusted. This is because changing the rotational speed of the upper and lower rollers causes the fibers to shift, making it difficult for the waves to return.

It is also desirable that the upper end surface of the protruding stripes against which the roller is pressed be knurled to make the contact surface difficult to slip during processing, and it is also desirable that the inside be hollow and cooled by passing cold water through it.

It is most desirable to apply the waves perpendicular to the fibers of the foot, but they may also be applied at an appropriate angle to the fibers of the foot.

Embodiment FIG. 1 shows an example in which toothed rollers are used. Of a pair of upper and lower toothed rollers 1 that mesh with each other, one is driven to rotate at a constant speed and the other is driven to rotate so that the rotational speed can be adjusted. In the processing equipment that is used, squid legs 2
The paper is oriented vertically and fed between the rollers.
This creates a waving process in which the fibers are rubbed against the squid's legs.

Figure 2 shows an example of a case using corrugated rollers.Similar to the one shown in Figure 1, of a pair of upper and lower corrugated rollers 4.4 that mesh with each other, one has a constant speed and the other can adjust the rotation speed. In a similar device, the squid legs 5 are fed sideways between the rollers, thereby performing the same waving process as described above.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the present invention is characterized in that the legs of the squid are wave-processed in the direction intersecting the fibers. This leaves the legs stiff and makes it easier to eat.
