Description

The utility model relates to devices for heat treatment of food products and can be used for smoking fish, meat and various semi-finished products.

A technical solution is known according to patent RU No. 54728, A23B 4/044 (2006.01), published on July 27, 2006, according to which a SMOKER containing a vertically located body with a bottom, while the body in the upper part along the perimeter from the outside is equipped with a water seal, formed with a flanging of the lid, on the inside of the body there are fastening elements in the form of a cross for hanging products, and in the lower part of the body there is a stand for placing a heating source, and at the bottom of the body there is a pan for collecting fat, mounted on supports and forming a volume with the bottom of the body for placing wood chips or sawdust, and the lid is equipped with a fitting for collecting excess pressure.

Also known is a technical solution according to patent RU No. 109373, A23B 4/044 (2006.01), published on 10/20/2011, according to which a SMOKER containing a body with a bottom, a lid, at least one tray for placing a product, made with the possibility of passing smoke through it, the bottom is reinforced, the body is made in the form of a cylindrical shell with transverse stiffeners, while the supporting surface of the element for placing the product is the body stiffener, and the edges of the shell are connected by contact roller welding, and the bottom is connected to the shell by means of a seam seam; contains a pan for collecting fat, which is made with support legs with the possibility of its installation on the bottom of the body.

The disadvantages of the known solutions is the absence in the design of the possibility of using filter elements that reduce the impact of carcinogenic compounds in smoke smoke on the final product. It is also not possible to use the smokehouse as a cold smoking chamber due to the impossibility of connecting a smoke generator.

The disadvantages of the known technical solutions are eliminated by the claimed utility model.

The objective of the claimed utility model is to improve the quality of smoking food products, by improving the design of the smokehouse with the ability to filter smoke.

The problem is solved due to the claimed design of the smokehouse, containing a body with a bottom, a water seal and a coupling, a lid with a fitting and a thermometer, a wood chip tray, equipment for placing the product and a fat pan, which provides a container for the filter element. The filter element placed there adsorbs on its surface the largest particles of the dispersed phase of smoke smoke, containing most of the carcinogenic compounds, thereby minimizing the ingress of these substances onto the product.

To do this, the body of the smokehouse is made in the form of a cylindrical shell with a water seal welded to it in the upper part, and a bottom made with stiffeners in the lower part. Also, a groove is made in the body, providing a support surface for the fat pan, which, in turn, is made in the form of a plate with a flange along the outer diameter and a container for the filter element located in the center of the structure. At the same time, along the perimeter, the fat tray is equipped with a seal in the form of an o-ring made of elastomer (for example, food grade silicone) to prevent smoke from entering the smoking chamber bypassing the filter element, as well as to prevent condensate and fat from entering the bottom of the smokehouse. At the same time, an “umbrella” is installed above the fat tray, which prevents the ingress of fat and condensate onto the filter element, and is made in the form of an inverted saucer with a central hole. In addition, a coupling for connecting a smoke generator is installed in the lower part of the housing. The lid of the smokehouse is made in the form of a cone with a flanging around the perimeter. At the same time, the lid is equipped with a fitting for releasing excess pressure formed during the smoldering of chips, as well as a thermometer for temperature control during cooking. Also, a pallet for wood chips is installed in the smokehouse, in the center of which there is a rod that acts as a guide for equipment, on which, in turn, the product is placed.

The smokehouse works as follows. Chips are placed on the chip tray, then a fat tray is placed on the chip tray rod, in the center of which a filter element (eg zeolite) is placed. Further, on top of the fat tray, an “umbrella” and equipment with the product placed on it are installed. The resulting design is immersed in the body of the smokehouse. A lid with a thermometer is installed on top of the smokehouse. Also, if necessary, a hose is put on the fitting, the reverse end of which is led into the ventilation system. Water is poured into the water seal to ensure tightness, and the smokehouse is placed on the heating source. The removal of smoke and steam formed during the operation of the smokehouse is carried out through the fitting. The connection of the smoke generator to the smokehouse is made by means of a coupling, while in the absence of a connection, the coupling is closed with a stopper.

The main difference of the proposed technical solution is the equipping of the fat pan with a filter element with the possibility of filtering smoke, which improves the quality of the final product. To do this, the fat tray is made with a recess in the form of a plate with a flare along the outer diameter and a container for the filter element located in the center of the structure, and along the perimeter it is equipped with a seal in the form of an elastomer sealing ring (for example, food grade silicone) to prevent smoke from entering the smokehouse chamber bypassing the filter element, as well as to prevent condensate and fat from entering the bottom of the smokehouse. At the same time, an “umbrella” is installed above the fat tray, preventing the ingress of fat and condensate onto the filter element, for which the “umbrella” is made in the form of an inverted saucer with a central hole.

The technical result is an increase in the quality of the processed product.

The technical result is achieved due to the design of the smokehouse, containing a body with a bottom and a water seal, a lid with a fitting for relieving excess pressure and a thermometer, a wood chip tray, equipment for placing the product and a fat tray, characterized in that the fat tray contains a container for filtering element; the pan for fat around the perimeter has a seal made of elastomer; at the same time, an “umbrella” is installed above the fat tray, made in the form of an inverted saucer with a central hole. As an option, the fat tray is made with a recess in the form of a plate with a flange along the outer diameter and a container for the filter element located in the center of the structure. A groove is made in the smokehouse body with the possibility of a support surface for a fat tray, and a smoke generator connection coupling is installed in the lower part of the smokehouse body. As a special case, the equipment for placing the product is a cross for hanging the product and a baking sheet. Another special case is when the metal parts are made of stainless food steel.

Thus, a smoke filtering smokehouse improves the quality of the final product, since the filter element installed in the fat pan, the elastomer seal around its perimeter and the “umbrella” installed on top of the fat pan prevent carcinogenic compounds from entering the product.
