Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a multi-purpose food storage warehouse for refrigeration, aging, thawing and frozen storage,

The present invention relates to a multipurpose integrated food storage warehouse for refrigeration, aging, thawing and freezing storage, and more particularly, to a multi-purpose food storage warehouse for refrigeration, aging, thawing and freezing storage, and more particularly to a storage warehouse for each function for refrigeration, aging, The present invention relates to a multipurpose integral type food storage warehouse formed in a warehouse to be controlled and operated so as to become a function of a storage warehouse when necessary.

Generally, refrigerator freezers are focused on cooling the interior of one unit storage warehouse, which is a difficult problem in terms of maintaining the quality and leading quality according to the kind of food to be cooled, refrigerated or frozen.

In the case of meat storage, the storage ratio of the frozen meat and the frozen meat was conventionally 80% by weight to 20% by weight, but recently the storage ratio of the frozen meat has been increased to 20% by weight to 80% by weight. This is because the taste and flavor of fresh meat is superior to that of frozen dough. When frozen dough is stored for a long period of time, there is a problem of protein denaturation and color change, and there is a problem of dripping during thawing. Since there is no process, there is an advantage that it is easy to cook.

As a result, the concept of a frozen storage warehouse at -20 ° C to -25 ° C is changing to the concept of refrigerated storage warehouse of fresh food at -5 ° C to 0 ° C.

In addition, in the case of fresh meat before cooking the meat, since the texture of the meat due to post stiffness is not suitable for the sensory test that the consumer likes, it is preferable to change the texture of the meat by aging the cold meat, It is necessary to change.

In addition, as the distribution of frozen meat is gradually reduced, the need for defrosting of frozen meat is gradually increasing as the demand for the distribution of frozen meat is increased due to the defrosting of imported or domestic frozen meat.

Therefore, in order to adapt the consumption pattern to the meats in fresh meat and small meat pack units, it is necessary to store meat in various forms such as refrigeration, thawing, aging, etc. in addition to the storage warehouse of the frozen flesh. To this end, In addition, since each storage warehouse for refrigeration, thawing and aging functions is required, it is necessary to develop a multi-purpose food storage warehouse integrally formed with a freezer storage warehouse.

Conventionally, this problem has been solved by manufacturing each unit food storage warehouse and adjusting the internal temperature suitable for each food type according to the food to be refrigerated and frozen, or adjusting the temperature stepwise.

However, such a conventional food storage warehouse requires unnecessary expenses for manufacturing each storage warehouse, and the cost due to the building area for building the warehouse and the cost of each administrative operation for controlling or managing each food storage warehouse There is a problem that occurs.

In the case of conventional aging chambers and thawing chambers, since stationary air due to natural convection is used, the heat of the stationary air is very low, the temperature and humidity of the upper and lower portions of the aging and thawing chambers are significantly varied, There is a problem that the temperature fluctuates excessively at all times and the refrigeration efficiency is lowered.

Hereinafter, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. FIG.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing an embodiment of a multipurpose integral type food storage warehouse according to the present invention,

A refrigeration storage warehouse (10) having a temperature of -20 DEG C to -25 DEG C is formed in one side space using a refrigerating device, and one side of the refrigeration storage warehouse (10) The refrigerator 20, the thawing warehouse 30 or the aging warehouse 30 may be selectively formed from the warehouse 20, the thawing warehouse 30 and the ripening warehouse 40, or alternatively, the refrigerating warehouse 20, And each food function warehouse 100 for the warehouse 30 and the ripening warehouse 30 is formed.

The conventional refrigeration warehouse 10 is divided into a refrigerator storage room 20 for a fresh meat, a thawing warehouse 30 and a ripening warehouse 40. The refrigerating warehouse 20 ), The thawing warehouse (30), and the aging warehouse (40), and the air condition control is performed so that the air temperature and the humidity are adjusted to the function will be.

To this end, low-temperature cold air at -20 ° C to -25 ° C is initially supplied to the refrigeration warehouse 20, the thawing warehouse 30 and the aging warehouse 40 from the refrigeration storage warehouse 10, To form the air condition control of each food function warehouse 100 to a predetermined air temperature and humidity required by the storage tank 30, the aging warehouse 40, and the like; .

4, in order to supply cold air of low temperature from the refrigeration storage warehouse 10 for air conditioning control, a supply damper (not shown) formed in the cold air supply port 11 on the upper surface of the refrigeration storage warehouse 10, The cold air is discharged from the refrigerator 20, the thawing warehouse 30, and / or the storage room 30, which are in accordance with the respective food functions provided in the food function warehouse 100, And is supplied so as to be the air flow rate set inside the warehouse 40.

Generally, the supply damper 13 is adjusted so that the air flow rate is formed at 0.5 to 2 m / sec. In consideration of changes in color of meat, loss of weight, drying of the skin, and the like for refrigeration, And is appropriately regulated.

The air of each refrigeration warehouse 20, the thawing warehouse 30 and / or the aged warehouse 40 is again circulated through the cooling circulation port 12 of the lower surface of the refrigeration storage warehouse 10, Air circulation is achieved.

The air flow in the food function warehouse 100 is circulated through the refrigeration storage 20 to the refrigeration storage warehouse 10 through the thawing warehouse 30 or the aging warehouse 40, And flows sequentially from a relatively low warehouse to a high warehouse, thereby achieving the effect of energy saving.
