Description

Rotary cooking table apparatus {Rotary cooking table apparatus}

The present invention relates to a rotary type cooking table device capable of quickly and conveniently cooking a plurality of foods according to a cooking order while rotating a table on which a plurality of cookers are installed.

In general, large restaurants are essentially equipped with a plurality of cookers because a large number of ordered foods must be cooked in a short time.

In addition, cooks are placed in each cooker to observe the process of cooking food and perform appropriate cooking activities such as adjusting temperature according to a recipe unique to each cooking step or adding additional ingredients.

Therefore, the labor cost burden on the cooks is high for the business owner, and the cooks have to cook while busy moving various cookers according to the cooking stage, which is not only physically strenuous but also difficult to cook according to the exact recipe, resulting in consistent food taste cannot be guaranteed.

On the other hand, in the case of a factory that processes food in large quantities, the cooker for each cooking process is systemized so that cooking is performed sequentially while moving along the conveyor, so cooking is done easily and conveniently, and consistent taste of food is guaranteed. However, since the cooking time is different for each cooking process, it is difficult to continuously cook, and accordingly, the loss time increases and the productivity greatly decreases.

In order to solve this problem, the conveyor length must be changed according to the cooking time of each cooking process. In addition, it is necessary to recruit cooks to manage it, which increases the burden of labor costs.

In this case, the vertical fixing shaft 261 of the horizontal roller 260 may be fixed to the upper end of the first support 210 . The horizontal roller 260 prevents the circular table 100 from moving left and right and helps the circular table 100 to rotate safely without being separated from the support part 200 .

On the other hand, the horizontal rollers 260 may be installed as a left and right pair for each circular rail 113, but may also be installed singly in each circular rail 113 as shown.

The circular table drive unit 300 includes a second support 310 installed on the floor, a drive roller 320 installed on the second support 310 to apply rotational force to the circular table 100, and the second support A driving motor 330 installed on the driving roller 320 to provide rotational force to the driving roller 320 and a control unit controlling the operation of the driving motor 330 may be provided.

In this case, the second support 310 is a pair of posts 311 spaced apart from each other along the rotational direction of the circular table 100 installed on the floor, and a horizontal panel connecting the upper ends of the posts 311 ( 312). In this embodiment, the horizontal panel 312 is configured to be positioned between each circular rail 113.

The drive motor 330 is installed below the horizontal panel 312 .

And, the drive roller 320 is installed on the horizontal panel 312 to receive rotational force from the drive motor 330 through the power transmission gears 340. The driving roller 320 is installed in close contact with at least one of the upper and lower surfaces of the circular rail 113 to provide rotational force to the circular table 100 while performing a rolling motion.

In this embodiment, as an example, the drive roller 320 is installed in close contact with both the upper and lower surfaces of each circular rail 113 so as to impart a stronger rotational force to the circular table 100.

In addition, the control unit controls the drive motor 330 to rotate the circular table 100 at a predetermined rotational speed according to the cooking order.

Meanwhile, the cookers A installed on the circular table 100 are supplied with an energy source required for operation through the cooker driver 400 .

When the cooker A operates with electricity as an energy source, the cooker driving unit 400 is electrically connected to the power supply unit 410 installed in the center of the round table 100 and the power supply unit 410. The rotating electrode unit 420 that rotates around the power supply unit 410 along the circular table 100 while maintaining the power supply connected to each cooker A in a state connected to the rotary electrode unit 420 A cable 430 and electrical signal lines may be provided.

In this case, the rotating electrode unit 420 includes a plurality of horizontal connectors 440 radially coupled to the rotating electrode unit 420 to correspond to the cooker A.

In addition, the cookers (A) may be provided with a control unit for each cooker (A) to independently control the operation, but in this case, the cook must perform operation control for each cooker (A), which reduces work efficiency. As such, it is preferable that the cooker driving unit 400 includes an integrated control unit 450 capable of integrally controlling the operation of all cookers A.

In this case, the integrated control unit 450 is loaded with operation control programs according to the cooking order for each food, and various sensors capable of determining the cooking state are installed in each cooker A, so that the integrated control unit 450 can detect the cooking status from each sensor. It may be configured to complete the food while appropriately adjusting the cooking time according to the received cooking state signal.

Meanwhile, the control unit of the circular table driving unit 300 may be connected to the power supply unit 410 of the cooker driving unit 400 to supply power to the driving motor 330 through the power supply unit 410. It is connected to the integrated control unit 450 of the cooker driving unit 400 and configured to actively control the round table 100 according to the signal received from the integrated control unit 450 according to the operating state of the cooker A and the cooking progress. It could be.

Here, the arrangement of the power line and the signal line between the control unit of the circular table drive unit 300 and the integrated control unit 450 of the cooker drive unit 400, and the power line and signal line between the integrated control unit 450 and the cooker A Arrangement, electrical connection configuration between the power supply unit 410, the rotating electrode unit 420, and the power cables 430 are not the gist of the present invention, and can be easily configured by those skilled in the art according to the operating relationship described below. Since it is possible, illustration and description are omitted.

A process of cooking food using the rotary cooking table apparatus of the present invention configured as described above will be described.

First, when the driving roller 320 of the circular table driving unit 300 rotates in a state in which power is applied to all the cooking utensils A installed on the circular table 100 through the cooker driving unit 400, the circular table 100 rotates. It starts to rotate slowly.

At this time, the circular table 100 rotates in a stable state without flow through the lower vertical roller 220, the upper vertical roller 240, and the horizontal roller 260 supporting the circular rail 113.

The cook repeatedly performs certain cooking with respect to the cooker A sequentially approaching from the front from the outside of the round table 100 .

The cooker A repeatedly passes in front of the cook while continuously rotating along the circular table 100, and the cook only needs to repeatedly perform proper cooking according to the cooking order whenever the cooker A approaches. .

At this time, the circular table driving unit 300 may adjust the speed of the circular table 100 according to a predetermined pattern according to the cooking order, and according to the signal received from the integrated control unit 450 according to the cooking progress, the circular table 100 You can also flexibly adjust the rotational speed of the

Therefore, since the cook only needs to perform appropriate cooking for each cooking step with respect to the cooker A sequentially approaching from the spot, a large number of foods can be quickly and conveniently cooked with a minimum number of people.

As such, although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and those skilled in the art can modify without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It is possible, and such modifications will fall within the scope of the present invention.
