Description

一种冰箱及其超声处理装置 技术领域
本发明涉及冷藏冷冻技术领域，特别是涉及一种冰箱及其超声处理装置。
背景技术
近年来，随着人们饮食结构的改变，腌制已成为肉制品加工过程中的必要环节。传统的腌制方法是在将肉类的表面擦透，使其汁液外渗，而后层堆在容器内，各层之间均匀地撒上食盐，各层依次压实，在外加压或不加压的条件下，依靠汁液形成盐溶液进行腌制。但是此种方法的腌制速度慢、入味效果差，且腌制后的肉类口感较差，因此还有待改善。
发明内容
本发明第一方面的一个目的是要提高食材的腌制速度。
本发明第一方面的一个进一步的目的是要保障食材的腌制品质。
本发明第二方面的目的是要提供一种冰箱。
特别地，根据本发明的第一方面，本发明提供了一种超声处理装置，包括：
容器，其顶部为敞口，用于盛装待处理的食材；
超声探头，可取放地设置在容器内，其底部具有连续的水平表面；和
超声换能器，固定在超声探头的上方，配置成受控地产生超声作用，并将超声作用传递至超声探头。
可选地，超声探头内限定有第一容纳腔，第一容纳腔内充注有冷却介质。
可选地，超声处理装置还包括：
储液盒，设置在超声探头与超声换能器之间，储液盒内限定有第二容纳腔，第二容纳腔内充注有冷却介质。
可选地，储液盒的下表面与超声探头的上表面之间设置有传导材料。
可选地，超声探头的尺寸小于容器的敞口尺寸，使得超声探头置于容器内时，超声探头的周缘与容器的内壁之间存在缝隙。
可选地，超声探头的重量为500g～1000g。
可选地，超声探头的上表面设置有定位槽，超声换能器的形状与定位槽 的形状相适配，超声换能器至少部分地插进至定位槽内。
可选地，超声换能器的功率为30W～600W、频率为19KHz～500KHz。
可选地，超声换能器的功率为40W～300W、频率35KHz～75KHz。
根据本发明的第二方面，本发明提供了一种冰箱，包括箱体，其内限定有储物间室，储物间室内设置有上述中任意一种超声处理装置。
本发明实施例的冰箱及其超声处理装置，在进行腌制工作时，首先在食材的表面涂匀食盐或者腌料，然后将食材置于容器内，将超声探头压持在食材上，最后，开启超声换能器，超声换能器产生的超声作用可以经超声探头传递至食材。在超声作用下，超声探头持续地受迫振动，类似于不断地对食材进行敲打，使得食材表面的食盐或者腌料能够较为快速地渗透和扩散至食材内部，显著地缩短了食材的腌制时间，使得食材入味更加均匀。
进一步地，本发明实施例的冰箱及其超声处理装置，其超声探头内限定有第一容纳腔，第一容纳腔内充注有冷却介质或者超声探头与超声换能器之间的储液盒内限定有第二容纳腔，第二容纳腔内充注有冷却介质，冷却介质能够吸收超声换能器产生的热量，不仅可以防止超声换能器过热损坏，还可以防止热量向待处理的食材传递，避免食材被熟化。

具体实施方式
下面将参照附图更详细地描述本公开的示例性实施例。虽然附图中显示 了本公开的示例性实施例，然而应当理解，可以以各种形式实现本公开而不应被这里阐述的实施例所限制。相反，提供这些实施例是为了能够更透彻地理解本公开，并且能够将本公开的范围完整的传达给本领域的技术人员。
本发明提供了一种用于冰箱10的超声处理装置200和包括该超声处理装置200的冰箱10。
参照图1，冰箱10一般性地可包括箱体100，箱体100内形成有一个或多个储物间室110，储物间室110根据制冷温度可以被配置成冷藏储物间室110、冷冻储物间室110、变温储物间室110等。具体地，储物间室110的功能、数量、布局方式等可以根据实际需求进行配置。
储物间室110内设置有超声处理装置200，超声处理装置200用于食材300的腌制，提高食材300的腌制速度。储物间室110能够为超声处理装置200提供低温环境，抑制腌制过程中细菌的生长和繁殖，避免腌制过程中食材300腐败变质。当然，在一些情况下，超声处理装置200也可以设置在冰箱10的抽屉内、门体内或搁物架上，或者以外置装置固定在冰箱10的门体外。
参照图2，超声处理装置200至少包括容器210、超声探头220和超声换能器230。其中，容器210的顶部为敞口，用于盛装待处理的食材300。超声探头220可取放地设置在容器210内，其底部为连续的水平表面。超声换能器230固定在超声探头220的上方，配置成受控地产生超声作用，并将超声作用传递至超声探头220。
本发明实施例的超声处理装置200，在进行腌制工作时，首先在食材300的表面涂匀食盐或者腌料，然后将食材300置于容器210内，将超声探头220压持在食材300上，最后，开启超声换能器230，超声换能器230产生的超声作用可以使超声探头220受迫地持续振动，从而不断地对食材300进行敲打，加快食材300表面的食盐或者腌料的渗透和扩散，显著地缩短了食材300的腌制时间，使得食材300入味更加均匀。
需要说明的是，本实施方式的超声处理装置200主要用于肉类食材300的腌制，超声探头220的作用类似于松肉锤，在处理牛排等粗纤维的食材300时，超声探头220的持续振动能够将食材300的纤维结构打散，提升食材300的嫩度，进一步地便于食盐或者腌料渗透进食材300内部。
本实施方式中，超声探头220的重量可以为500g～1000g。例如，超声探 头220的重量可以为600g、700g、800g等，若超声探头220的重量较轻，其在振动过程中对食材300表面的敲打效果相对较差，食材300的入味速度较为缓慢。若超声探头220的重量较重，在驱动超声探头220振动时，需要使超声换能器230以较大功率运行，从而导致超声换能器230产生较多热量，热量经超声探头220传递至食材300表面后，致使食材300表面熟化，造成食材300处理失败。
参照图3，在一个可选实施例中，超声探头220内限定有第一容纳腔221，第一容纳腔221内充注有冷却介质250。冷却介质250的比热容较大，而且可供超声传递，在保障超声传递效率的前提下，利用冷却介质250吸收掉超声换能器230产生的热量，不仅可以防止超声换能器230在持续的工作过程中出现过热损坏，还可以阻断热量向食材300传递，避免食材300被熟化，且食材300表面的温度降低后，有效抑制了细菌的生长和繁殖，避免腌制后的食材300腐败变质。
进一步地，超声探头220的上表面设置有定位槽222，超声换能器230的形状与定位槽222的形状相适配，超声换能器230至少部分地插进至定位槽222内。通过将超声换能器230以插接的方式固定在超声探头220的顶部，安装时可以先将超声换能器230插进至定位槽222内，而后向超声换能器230与定位槽222之间的缝隙内注入胶水，利用胶水实现超声换能器230与超声探头220的粘接固定，从而可以提高超声换能器230与超声探头220之间的连接稳定性，使得超声探头220带动超声换能器230稳定振动。
参照图4，在另一个可选实施例中，超声处理装置200还包括储液盒240，储液盒240设置在超声探头220与超声换能器230之间，储液盒240内限定有第二容纳腔241，第二容纳腔241内充注有冷却介质250。相比于在超声探头220内形成第一容纳腔221而言，此种方式更易于实现，有利于简化制作工艺，降低制作成本。
进一步地，储液盒240的下表面与超声探头220的上表面之间设置有传导材料260。传导材料260可以为液体或者半液体介质，耐高温、不易挥发，能够对储液盒240与超声探头220之间的缝隙进行填充，从而保证超声作用能够经储液盒240有效传递至超声探头220。
超声探头220的尺寸应小于容器210的敞口尺寸，使得超声探头220置于容器210内时，超声探头220的周缘与容器210的内壁之间存在缝隙。可 以理解，在超声换能器230带动超声探头220上下振动时，虽然振动幅度较小，但其在水平面内也会出现一定的左右搓动，通过将超声探头220的尺寸做小，使用时将超声探头220置于容器210的中央，可以有效避免超声探头220与容器210的内壁发生磕碰。
容器210可以为矩形容器210，超声探头220可以为矩形探头，例如矩形容器210的长×宽为：40cm×40cm，相应地，矩形探头的长×宽为35cm×35cm。参照图5，容器210也可以为圆形容器210，超声探头220为圆形探头，例如，圆形容器210的直径为40cm，圆形探头的直径为35cm。当然，容器210和超声探头220的形状可以根据实际需求进行配置，本发明实施例对此不做限制。
本实施方式中，超声换能器230的功率可以为30W～600W、频率可以为19KHz～500KHz。优选地，超声换能器230的功率为40W～300W、频率35KHz～75KHz。通过对试制样品的实际使用，发现超声处理装置200在优选功率及优选频率下的嫩肉效果较好，嫩肉速度较快，能够被广大用户所接收。
根据上述中任意一个可选实施例或多个可选实施例的组合，本发明实施例能够达到如下有益效果：
本发明实施例的冰箱10及其超声处理装置200，在进行腌制工作时，首先在食材300的表面涂匀食盐或者腌料，然后将食材300置于容器210内，将超声探头220压持在食材300上，最后，开启超声换能器230，超声换能器230产生的超声作用可以经超声探头220传递至食材300。在超声作用下，超声探头220持续地受迫振动，类似于不断地对食材300进行敲打，使得食材300表面的食盐或者腌料能够较为快速地渗透和扩散至食材300内部，显著地缩短了食材300的腌制时间，使得食材300入味更加均匀。
进一步地，本发明实施例的冰箱10及其超声处理装置200，其超声探头220内限定有第一容纳腔221，第一容纳腔221内充注有冷却介质250或者超声探头220与超声换能器230之间的储液盒240内限定有第二容纳腔241，第二容纳腔241内充注有冷却介质250，冷却介质250能够吸收超声换能器230产生的热量，不仅可以防止超声换能器230过热损坏，还可以防止热量向待处理的食材300传递，避免食材300被熟化。
至此，本领域技术人员应认识到，虽然本文已详尽示出和描述了本发明 的多个示例性实施例，但是，在不脱离本发明精神和范围的情况下，仍可根据本发明公开的内容直接确定或推导出符合本发明原理的许多其他变型或修改。因此，本发明的范围应被理解和认定为覆盖了所有这些其他变型或修改。
