Description

Can heating system for heating canned foods
The invention relates to heating field and in particular to a novel device to heat canned foods .
Canning refers to the long-term preservation of food by packing it into airtight containers like steel and tin cans and mason jars. Food canning is defined as a technique to store food at standard temperatures by keeping food in tightly closed vacuum-sealed containers and heat processing properly. Canning process involves washing, sorting/grading, preparation, container filling, exhausting, container sealing, heat sterilization, cooling, labeling/casing and shipment storage. The first step in canning is processing where the food undergoes cooking, peeling, pitting, shelling, boning or slicing. The processed food is then sealed in cans and then heated to destroy toxic bacteria and avoid spoilage. These processes make food stable for the shelf and safe for consumption from one to five years. Boiling, exertion of high temperature over sustained periods, pasteurization, freezing, vacuum treatment, refrigeration, food compatible antimicrobial agent infusions are some common procedures used for the prevention of food spoilage before containment.
Owing to busy life style, consumer inclination toward the consumption of convenience food products has increased during recent past .Due to retention of high amount of nutrients, color and flavor, canned food have become one of the most preferred choices of preserved foods among consumers.
There are such canned foods that taste more delicious when they are boiled or warmed. However, if a metal can such as made of tin or aluminum is heated as it is with a lid being closed, it will be extremely dangerous since the can may possibly be burst by the heat expansion of contents.
In view of such danger, even if canned foods taste more delicious by heating, canners usually hesitate to indicate this on can bodies etc
Patent numbered US 5048506 discloses a container for heating canned food and can main body used thereof, this patent presents a heating canned food capable of always ensuring safety heating of a metal can such as made of tin or aluminum .This invention presents a container for heating canned food comprising a can main body having a protrusion on the side covered with a safety metal stripe formed integrally with a detachable lid, and a heater casing for receiving the can main body therein and having a lateral engaging groove for engaging the protrusion on the can main body. The protrusion on the can main body is so adapted that it can not engage the lateral engaging groove of the casing unless the lid is detached and the metal stripe is removed from the protrusion.
Patent numbered Us 3964313,discloses  a novel method and device for measuring the internal temperatures of canned foods during processing and the method for manufacturing such devices .This patent presents the method of measuring internal temperatures of canned foods under actual operating conditions by placing recyclable thermal simulators in each batch of canned foods during the actual processing. A recyclable thermal simulator device having the same thermal characteristics as the particular canned food being simulated. A method for manufacturing recyclable thermal simulators by equipping a container substantially identical to those simulated with a suitable temperature indicator, filling the container with a porous, open-celled, sponge-like matrix material, uniformly distributing a liquid of a pre-determined specific gravity throughout the matrix material by means of a partial vacuum usually identical to that drawn on the canned food simulated and sealing the container. Matching the thermal characteristics of different canned foods is generally accomplished primarily by varying the matrix density, the specific gravity of the liquid, and the percentage of open cells in the matrix material and by employing identical containers and drawing the same partial vacuums used by the canned foods simulated.
.
This invention presents a novel system for heating canned foods.
.The outer and inner layer are pressed ,among them the space is filled with unflamable chemical materials. In this invention a crescent-shaped layer is around the canned foods ,the lid of canned food is of 3-layer.When the user wants to consume the canned food , it is just needed to make a hole and pour water ,the reaction is done between Mg and Cao to 90^c.
While it's extremely rare, canned foods that weren't processed properly may contain dangerous bacteria known as Clostridium botulinum. Consuming contaminated food can cause botulism, a serious illness that can lead to paralysis and death if left untreated. On the other hand, not properly heating of such products may lead to Poisoning and even lead to death.
To solve mentioned problems a practical solution for heating canned foods in a particular shape is provided. This utility model presents an available resort to heat canned foods in the least time .
Canned foods can be just as nutritious as fresh and frozen foods because canning preserves many nutrients. The amount of minerals, fat-soluble vitamins, protein, fat and carbohydrate remain relatively unchanged by the process of canning, beside all above advantages this matter should be regarded that the the method of heating canned foods is of great importance .This invention presents a system in structure which can be pressed conviently, the used chemical components in this invention have the ability to be heated to 90 ^C.
Fig.1 This figure shows the structure of the can.
Fig.1
In this part most preferred embodiments of the invention are described to understand the invention much better.Num.1 shows the 3-layered lid of the invention which is latched to the can. It can be produced separately to put around the lid.Num2 shows the heating wall which is placed outside the can. The space between the inner and outer walls is filled with chemical materials which comprises Cao ,Mg.
Examples
This invention is applicable anywhere .Most of fast food fans, travelers, workers ,climbers ,busy people especially increasing number of working women are the main consumers of such product.
Rapid surge in number of large retail formats including hyper markets and E.commercial channels fuels the demands for canned foods.
