Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To apply a linear band-like burnt look pattern efficiently onto a surface of a body to be burnt by a method wherein a plurality of U-shaped tubular heaters capable of heating locally directly are arranged vertically to an under part of an electric branding iron principal body having a handle. SOLUTION: A plurality of U-shaped tubular heaters 3 capable of heating locally directly are vertically arranged in parallel to a lower part of an electric branding iron principal body 1 having a handle, and by heating an electric resistant wire of the U-shaped tubular heater 3 by introduction of electricity from outside via an electric power source cord 4, the heat of the electric resistant wire can be directly transmitted to a bottom part of the U-shaped tube. Since heat loss in the middle between the heater part and a printing part is none at all thereby, the bottom part of the U-shaped tube corresponding to the printing part can be efficiently quickly heated with a small heat source. Consequently, raising a temperature of the printing part to high temperature becomes easy, and a brand surface of the body to be burnt can be carbonized. Therefore, a printing surface can be easily cleaned, a damage is reduced, continuous operation can be carried out, branding efficiency is improved, etc., such the practical effects are made conspicuous.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a branding device for printing a baked pattern such as a linear mesh on the surface of foods mainly for steaks and chitin.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a ironing iron used in the case of imprinting a name or a mark on a surface of a kamaboko or a starch, for example, and a stamping device of this kind, use a coal, oil, gas burner or the like for a printing part from outside. The method of heating to a predetermined temperature and using it has been used for a long time, but this method has a large loss of heat source, and the surface of the printing part becomes excessively high temperature, so that the part is severely worn and continuous. However, there are drawbacks such as difficulty in branding work, impairing efficiency and deteriorating the working environment.

On the other hand, an apparatus has been developed which heats a heater portion by electricity and heats a nearby printing portion through its heat conduction. However, in order to keep the temperature of the printing portion high, a higher temperature is required. Thus, there was no other way than to create a heater part having an abnormally high temperature ignoring the durable life of raising the heater part, and it was practically expensive. In addition, since this type of branding device utilizes the heat conduction of metal, the rate of temperature rise in the printing section is slow, making continuous branding difficult. As a result, the branded part of the mark does not cleanly carbonize and adheres to the printed part, which requires frequent removal work with a wire brush or the like, resulting in reduced branding efficiency and increased wear of the printed part. Was.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present invention provides an electric branding device capable of efficiently forming a linear band-shaped pattern on the surface of an object to be burned.

The structure of the present invention for achieving the above object will be described with reference to the drawings corresponding to one embodiment. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of the present invention, and FIG. FIG. As is apparent from FIGS. 1 and 2, an electric branding device main body (hereinafter also referred to as a main body) 1 having a grip 2.
U-shaped tubular heater 3 that can be directly heated locally at the bottom of the tube
Are vertically arranged in parallel, and the heat generated by energization from the outside via the power cord 4 causes the bottom of the U-shaped tubular heater 3 to become a printing portion, and a linear band-shaped scoring pattern is formed on the surface of the object 6 to be burned. It is an electric branding device for branding.

FIG. 3 is an enlarged explanatory view of a part of the U-shaped tubular heater 3 of the main body 1 which is peeled off.
The electric branding device is characterized in that the internal electric resistance wire 7 is arranged at a high density at a portion where the surface of the object 6 is directly heated locally.

As shown in FIG. 2, the operation of using the product of the present invention is as simple as grasping the grip 2 of the main body 1 and lifting it, and pressing the U-shaped tubular heater 3 against the surface of the object 6 such as a steak. Operation may be repeated.

The effects of the product of the present invention having the above-described structure are listed below. When the electric resistance wire 7 of the U-shaped tubular heater 3 is heated by energization, the heat of the electric resistance wire 7 is immediately reduced to U.
The heat can be transferred to the bottom of the tube. As is clear from this, since there is no heat loss between the heater section and the printing section as in the related art, the bottom of the U-shaped tube corresponding to the printing section is quickly and efficiently provided with a small heat source. As a result of the heating, the printing portion (the bottom of the U-shaped tube) can be easily heated to a high temperature, and therefore, the branding surface of the object 6 can be carbonized, so that the printing surface can be easily cleaned and wear can be reduced. At the same time, it has outstanding practical effects, such as enabling continuous work and improving the efficiency of branding. Further, the U-shaped tubular heater 3 can select and configure various burn patterns by arranging a plurality of parallel or intersecting plural U-shaped tubular heaters.

[0009]

According to the present invention, the U-shaped tubular heater is formed at the lower part of the main body, so that the U-shaped bottom portion corresponding to the printing portion can be efficiently heated only by supplying the electric resistance wire. This makes it easier to maintain the printed portion at a high temperature, so that it is possible to easily apply a linear band-shaped burning pattern to the branding surface of the object to be burned, to improve the appearance of the food after baking, and to make the baking flavor flavorful. And improve appetite. On the other hand, the printing section facilitates cleaning, reduces wear, and enables continuous operations to improve the efficiency of branding, thereby achieving outstanding practical effects.
