Description

Aggregate and fish processing equipment

The invention relates to a food processing equipment, in particular to an aggregate and fish processing equipment.

Large fish species such as gentian grouper, black mullet, swordfish, etc. are not only high in nutritional value, but also good in taste when cooked as dishes, and are aquatic products with high economic and edible values. However, due to the large size of large fish, which is difficult to handle, in addition to eating directly at specialized restaurants, it is usually difficult to properly cook whole fish in the family and handle it by themselves. Therefore, there are many marketing methods on the market that process large-scale fish in production lines and make packaging products, which allows ordinary consumers to buy a small number of cut parts and simply cook and eat them at home.

However, large fish are suitable for processing and are used as packaging products, mainly in the fish body with more meat, and fish head, fish tail, scattered fish bones, etc., are less valuable except for direct packaging. Even if it is made into a packaging product, taking into account the high hardness of the fish bone and its sharp shape, it may still pierce the packaging and affect the freshness. Therefore, fish heads, fish tails, scattered fish bones, etc., although they still have edible value, Because it is difficult to make a product with a considerable selling value in the market, not only cannot it be effectively used, but it will also cause food waste. In addition, even the medium-sized fish that is often used for packaging products, such as mackerel, Taiwan seabream, milkfish, and other fish species, the fish head, fish tail, scattered fish bones, and other fish stocks are often mixed with miscellaneous materials or Reprocessing is also used as feed, which cannot be used effectively and creates value.

In addition to the fish food mentioned above, the food waste produced by ordinary households will also include the aggregates of poultry and livestock, as well as the aggregates produced by meat processing, such as beef bones, pork bones, or chicken bones. ..and many more. The aggregate is also rich in calcium and other nutrients, but due to its hard texture, it cannot be eaten directly, and it is often reduced to directly discarded food waste, which cannot be effectively used further.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an aggregate and fish processing device capable of processing fish materials such as fish head, fish tail, fish bone, fish scales, etc., as well as poultry and livestock aggregates into an easy-to-use and eatable state .

Therefore, the aggregate and fish processing device of the present invention is suitable for processing a plurality of blocks cut from the aggregate and fish material. The aggregate and fish processing device includes a steaming unit, A pressure heating unit downstream of the steaming unit and a drying unit disposed downstream of the pressure heating unit.

The steaming unit is suitable for holding the blocks and cooking the blocks.

The pressurized heating unit includes a pressure cavity defining a pressure space for containing the blocks, and a heater disposed in the pressure cavity and used to heat the pressure space to form superheated steam.

The drying unit is suitable for drying the blocks taken out from the pressure space, so that the blocks are hydrolyzed and brittle.

The effect of the present invention is that the use of the aggregate and fish processing device can make such blocks that were difficult to directly use or eat directly through the treatment of forming superheated steam in an environment higher than atmospheric pressure and heating, so that The structure of the aggregate and fish material is softened, crushed, and powdered, and after drying, it is easily grindable and brittle and is hydrolytically soluble and crunchy or powdery, which is beneficial to subsequent manufacturing and utilization or direct consumption.

Other features and effects of the present invention will be clearly presented in the embodiment with reference to the drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a block flow diagram illustrating the execution performed by one embodiment of the aggregate and fish processing device of the present invention Processing method; and FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of the aggregate and fish processing apparatus of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 at the same time, one of the aggregate and fish processing equipment of the present invention The embodiment is suitable for processing aggregates and fish materials. The aggregates and fish materials can be divided into a plurality of blocks, and in this embodiment, the processed aggregates and fish materials are firstly composed of fish heads and fish tails. , Fish bones, and fish scales are taken as examples to illustrate. The aggregate and fish processing device is actually a production line equipment, and includes an steaming unit 2, a separation unit 3, a pressurized heating unit 4, a drying unit 5, A pulverizing unit 6 and a control unit 7 connected to the steaming unit 2, the separating unit 3, the pressure heating unit 4, the drying unit 5, and the pulverizing unit 6 in information.

The separation unit 3 includes an outer casing 31 defining a separation space 310, and a centrifugal casing 32 disposed in the separation space 310 and defining an accommodation cavity 320 suitable for containing the blocks. The centrifugal casing 32 can be driven to rotate relative to the outer casing 31. The pressurizing and heating unit 4 includes a pressure cavity 41 defining a pressure space 410 and a heater 42 disposed in the pressure cavity 41 and used to heat the pressure space 410 to form superheated steam. The control unit 7 is used for regulating and controlling the relevant parameters of the blocks, so as to make the aggregate and fish processing equipment operate in an automated mode.

An aggregate and fish processing method is suitable for execution in conjunction with the aggregate and fish processing device, and includes a cutting step 11, a steaming step 12, a separation step 13, a pressure heating step 14, A drying step 15 and a pulverizing step 16.

In this cutting step 11, the aggregate and fish material are cut into a plurality of pieces by using a general cutter or an automated cutting machine. Wherein, each block has a bone portion and a meat portion.

In the steaming step 12, the steaming unit 2 is used to steam the blocks, so that the meat parts of the blocks are thoroughly cooked, and the blocks are initially sterilized. At this time, since the meat portion is thoroughly cooked, it will not adhere to the bone portion, which is also conducive to subsequent separation.

In the separation step 13, the blocks are placed in the containing cavity 320 of the centrifugal casing 32, and the centrifugal casing 32 is rotated at high speed in the separation space 310 through the centrifugal casing. Design a plurality of holes (not shown in the figure) on the 32, that is, when the bone and the meat of the blocks are subjected to different centrifugal forces, the meat can enter the separation space through the holes. 310, and because the bone portion is relatively long or bulky, it cannot remain in the accommodation cavity 320 through the holes, thereby separating the meat portion and the bone portion from each other. Further, the separating step 13 includes a collecting sub-step 131 for collecting the meat portion, and the collected meat portion can be processed into fish floss, snacks, cup soup, or dried meat in soup packs and cup soup through additional processing. Materials and so on.

In the step of pressurizing and heating 14, the bones of the blocks are put into the pressure space 410 of the pressure cavity 41, and water is added to the pressure space 410 to make the bones submerged into the water surface. Under the circumstance, in the absence of water, the bone portion is prevented from directly contacting the pressure cavity 41 which is too high in temperature to cause scorch. Next, after the pressure space 410 is closed, it is heated by the heater 42 under a pressure of 2-5 kg / cm ² to form superheated steam at a temperature of 110-200 ° C., and the treatment is performed for 1-10 hours. Wherein, when the hardness of the bone is high, the pressure can be adjusted upwards moderately, and the temperature of the superheated steam and the processing time will be directly proportional to the degree of crushing of the bone, that is, if If the finished product is required to exhibit a finer powder, the heating temperature can be increased, and the processing time can be extended. Since the pressure value of the pressure space 410 is greater than the external atmospheric pressure, the superheated vapor can exist at a higher temperature than the atmospheric pressure. Through the high-temperature and high-pressure environment in the pressure space 410 and the boiling and boiling of the originally added water, it is ensured that all these bones can be subjected to the simultaneous processing of pressure, steam temperature, and water boiling and boiling, so that The original hard structure of the bones softened.

In the drying step 15, after removing the bone from the pressure space 410, the drying unit 5 is used to dry the bone at a temperature of 40 ° C-100 ° C to remove excess water. , Making the bone part hydrolyzed to become brittle and powdery.

In the pulverizing step 16, since the original hard structure of the bone has been softened, after the drying and embrittlement, the crumbly bone can be easily ground by using the pulverizing unit 6 with less power. It is made into a specific substance that is easy to extract, used as an additive, and even in powder form.

It is worth noting that in order to enable the aggregate and fish processing device of the present invention to automatically execute the production line processing process, the control unit 7 is preferably a systematic operation setting device, which can set the steaming unit in advance. 2. The processing time of the separation unit 3, the pressure heating unit 4, the drying unit 5, and the crushing unit 6 can also set the temperature parameters of the pressure heating unit 4 and the drying unit 5, The pressure value in the pressure space 410 and the parameters such as the temperature heated by the heater 42 make the aggregate and fish processing equipment truly meet the requirements of automatic operation. In addition, if the aggregate to be processed is a harder, firmer bone of poultry or livestock (such as the hardest beef bone, pork bone, or chicken bone ‧ ‧ etc.), it must be pressed at this pressure. The pressure space 410 of the heating unit 4 is processed at a pressure of 5 to 20 kg / cm ² for a period of 4 to 24 hours. That is to say, in accordance with the degree of hardness of the aggregate to be processed, different pressure, temperature, and time parameters must be adopted in the pressurizing and heating step 14. The control unit 7 can set many different modes in advance, and cooperate with a variety of aggregates of different hardness, so that the user can directly select and complete the setting more easily.

It is worth mentioning that among bones, fish heads, fish tails, fish bones, fish scales and other aggregates and fish materials that were difficult to use directly, the bones are rich in calcium, gelatin, and even fish oil. Through the aggregate and fish material processing device and processing method, it can form a hydrolytically soluble powder that is relatively friable in structure and even directly soluble in water. It is easy to provide it to the biotechnology industry for extraction or add it directly. And made into health food. Even if it is eaten directly or used for cooking dishes, the nutrients in the aggregate and fish can be ingested through direct consumption, and the aggregate and fish can be thoroughly used to achieve the purpose of avoiding waste.

In summary, the aggregate and fish material processing device of the present invention can process the aggregate and fish material that were originally difficult to use directly into a state that is easy to use and even eaten. Not only can the aggregate and fish material be thoroughly used, Avoid waste and also benefit for example biotechnology The subsequent use of the food industry, food industry, etc., can be directly consumed and ingested nutrients, so it can indeed achieve the purpose of cost invention.

However, the above are only examples of the present invention. When the scope of implementation of the present invention cannot be limited in this way, any simple equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the patent application and the content of the patent specification of the present invention are still Within the scope of the invention patent.
