Description

Rice cake aging and steaming device {FERMENTING AND STEAMING APPARATUS FOR RICE CAKE}

The present invention relates to an apparatus for ripening and steaming rice cake, and more particularly, by constructing an apparatus capable of performing the aging and steaming process at once by inputting grain flour or dough in the apparatus used for the production of rice cake. It relates to a rice cake ripening and steaming device that streamlines the process and improves productivity.

In general, rice cake is cooked by steaming a dough made from grain powder, such as rice or various grains, or powder, and since ancient times, rice cake is a food that cannot be omitted on holidays or feast days.

There are many different types of rice cakes depending on how they are made, and the majority of rice cakes in Korea are steamed rice cakes (蒸餠). The method of steaming rice cake is to put grain flour in a rice cooker, put it in a pot, and steam it using steam. Steamed rice cakes include steamed songpyeon and makgeolli, which are added to the dough and steamed.

Such thickening is produced by steaming directly in the state of grain powder or dough, or through a steaming process after fermentation and maturation by yeast like Jeungpyeon. For example, in Korea Utility Model No. 20-0443802, a container holder for stacking steaming containers in multiple layers inside a body having a door that can be opened and closed at the front, and steam generation to discharge high-temperature steam to the container holder A portion is provided, and the steam generating unit includes a water storage tank divided by a partition, an electric heater installed inside the water storage tank on one side bisected by a partition, and heating the water stored therein, and installed inside the water storage tank on the other side divided by a partition A water level sensor, a through hole formed in the bottom surface of the water storage tank on one side where the electric heater is installed, and the bottom surface of the other water tank on the other side where the water level sensor is installed, and a connection pipe for allowing the exchange of water are provided.

On the other hand, rice cake dough goes through a process of aging for several hours to several days under certain conditions, and after the aging is completed, it is put into a separate steamer and steamed to make rice cakes. For example, Korean Patent No. 10-1846987 discloses a rice flour manufacturing step, a kneading step of mixing rice flour with sugar and makgeolli and kneading the dough evenly, a fermentation step of adjusting the viscosity of the dough and putting it in a fermenter to ferment, and baking the dough in an oven. It constitutes a method for manufacturing jeungpyeon, which includes the step of inserting into the oven, and steaming in the oven in a state of 99% moisture in the oven.

As another example, in Korea Patent Registration No. 10-0940083, rice flour manufacturing step, rice flour, fermentation promoter, soda, takju, etc. are mixed and put into a fermentation vessel, and the temperature inside and outside the fermentation vessel is adjusted to 40~50℃. Then, a fermentation step of fermenting for 10 to 11 hours, and a step of mixing sugar, soda, salt, water, and rice flour with the fermented mixture and steaming at 100 to 110° C. for 30 to 50 minutes constitutes a manufacturing method.

Korea Registered Utility Model No. 20 - 0443802 (2009.03.16) Korean Patent No. 10 - 1846987 (2018.04.09) Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0940083 (2010.02.02) Korea Patent No. 10 - 0828233 (2008.05.07)

In the rice cake manufacturing technology to which the prior art as described above is applied, a separate rice cake is generally put into an apparatus for steaming rice cake in a state of grain powder or dough, or the rice cake dough is aged for several hours to several days at a certain temperature. It is made in the form of being put into a steaming device and manufactured.

That is, the apparatus for steaming rice cakes according to the prior art has a disadvantage in that it can be used only for steaming rice cakes because it is made in the form of generating steam by heating the water in the lower water tank by inputting the dough that has already undergone the aging process.

Therefore, in the prior art, since the aging process of the dough and the process of steaming and completing the rice cake are separately performed, there is a problem in that the efficiency in process and device operation is lowered and productivity is lowered.

In addition, since the physical properties of grains, which are the material of rice cakes, are easily changed according to temperature or humidity conditions, there is a problem that the quality cannot be excluded or the possibility that contamination occurs in the process of transferring the aged dough to a steaming device cannot be excluded.

Accordingly, the present invention was invented to solve the problems of the prior art as described above,

A main body 110 having a main door 112 mounted on the front entrance and exit by forming an inner chamber 111 and having a temperature display means 113 on one side thereof;

An auxiliary door 120 formed at a predetermined height in the lower part of the entrance and exit of the main body 110 and provided to open and close the lower hinge part 121 as a starting point;

A moving rack 130 equipped with a moving means 131 so as to be able to enter and exit the inner chamber 111 and to hold a plurality of trays on which rice cake dough is placed;

A steam supply module 140 connected to a steam generator from one side of the main body 110 and provided to supply steam to the inner chamber 111 by coupling the first supply pipe 141 and the second supply pipe 143;

A maturation module 150 connected to the first supply pipe 141 and mounted in the inner chamber 111 and provided to ripen the rice cake by raising the temperature of the inner chamber 111;

It is connected to the second supply pipe 143 and installed in the inner chamber 111 and includes a steaming module 160 provided to steam the rice cake by emitting steam to the inner chamber 111, thereby performing the aging and steaming process of rice cake. It is possible to achieve the purpose of streamlining the rice cake manufacturing process and improving productivity by performing it with a single device.

The present invention provides a rice cake aging and steaming apparatus capable of performing the aging and steaming process at once by adding grain powder or dough.

Therefore, in the case of rice cakes manufactured through aging, such as jeungpyeon, in the case of rice cakes manufactured by aging, the aging and steaming process is differentiated from the conventionally manufactured by steaming using an apparatus for steaming rice cakes after the aging process for several hours to several days under constant temperature and humidity conditions. There is an advantage that can be performed using a single device.

Therefore, the rice cake aging and steaming apparatus of the present invention can improve the efficiency and productivity of the rice cake manufacturing process and operation of the device, as well as the quality is damaged in the process of transferring the rice cake to a steaming device after separately aging it as in the prior art. There is an advantage of increasing workability and manufacturing high-quality rice cakes by excluding problems such as.
