The present invention relates to a frying apparatus for frying chicken or other foods using animal frying oil or vegetable frying oil. More specifically, the present invention relates to a frying apparatus that is configured to be forcibly discharged frying oil once used. It is about.

Conventionally, the fryer is improved mainly by the method of using the frying oil for a long time, and the user intended to reduce the oil consumption by intentionally using the oil for a long time, but the cooking condition of the frying cooking is poor and fried as the usage time of the oil becomes longer. The taste and nutritional quality of the gin was inevitably deteriorated.

Conventional frying oil is mainly used in cooking oil, there is a problem such as rancidity and impurities are generated by reusing the cooking oil repeatedly. As the recovery time and usage period of cooking oil are not clear, the quality of food is inevitably different from the beginning according to the use time of frying. As the use time of frying oil becomes longer, the taste, smell and color of food become worse, as well as rancidity. Oil was also a cause of food poisoning. In addition, reusing the oil used for frying once produces trans fats, especially if the same oil is heated several times. Therefore, even if it is olive oil, which is one of vegetable oils that produce less trans fat, it is inevitable to produce trans fat when used as frying oil.

In other words, except for the initial oil, the oil is produced during the heating and cooking process of trans fatty acid, so even if the cooking starts with oil without trans fatty acid, the trans fatty acid is produced in proportion to the number of cooking times, so the trans fatty acid is added to the final food. This must remain.

Therefore, the frying method used by re-blushing the current oil is difficult to maintain a constant taste of the cooked product and is also a form of exchanging oil depending on the arbitrary criteria of each user, so it is practically impossible to provide a consistent and standardized food to customers. Do. Due to these reasons, the customer has no choice but to increase the distrust of deep-fried oil, and the current method cannot satisfy customer satisfaction by changing the era of pursuing well-being and health.

Particularly in the fried food franchise industry, different stores have different oil usage standards, and sensory, nutritional, and hygienic differences between early and late cooked products of frying oil occur. With a thick taste, the color changes to a darker color, resulting in a difference in the quality of the product before and after the oil exchange, resulting in a lack of competitiveness or lack of competitiveness due to lack of uniform quality control.

The object of the present invention is that it is difficult for a user to check even if rancidity is obtained by using the frying oil for a long time, or it is inherently used because of the enormous risk factors that the resulting frying water has on the hygiene or health. In order to provide a safe and fresh fried food is provided to the consumer to provide a frying device with a discharge means for forcibly automatically discharging the oil once used.

The frying apparatus equipped with the forced oil discharge means used according to the present invention is a heater and a heater, which is a heating means formed close to the bottom surface (or side) of a cylindrical frying tank and a frying tank containing a certain amount of frying oil therein. In the frying apparatus consisting of a control unit for controlling the operation and overall cooking conditions, such as a buzzer indicating the heating time and heating temperature and cooking completion of the cooking and a frying net to put the food to be fried into the frying tank, once used in the frying tank An automatic control electric valve is installed in the drain port for discharging the fried frying oil, and a frying lid for opening and closing is formed to open and close the upper surface of the frying tank. When the heater is heated using the rear control unit and after a certain time has elapsed, the cooker opens the lid of the frying tank. The electric valve installed in the drainage port is operated to open the drainage port to drain the oil used for frying, and when the used frying oil is completely discharged and the fried food is taken out using the frying net, the electric valve is drained. It automatically closes and features an automatic control configuration that automatically refills the frying tank with new oil through the fill hole.

And the frying apparatus according to the present invention forms a transparent viewing window on the front or the slope of the frying tank to monitor the cooking state to be fried.

With reference to the accompanying drawings, a frying apparatus equipped with a forced oil discharge means used once in accordance with the present invention made of a configuration as described above will be described in detail below.
