Description

Exhibit chamber for conservation, maintenance, storage and exhibition of products food.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a camera for maintenance, storage and exhibition of products foods that require to keep in optimal conditions of conservation of temperature and humidity within limits determined, such as cheeses, sausages, hams, pate, etc ... The improvements made by the invention affect the simplification of the process of conservation of these foods in any location, creating thermal and humidity conditions ideal to maximize their properties, creating inside independent conditions outside. Because of its dimensions, it is conservation chamber is specially designed for your installation on countertop or restaurant bar. Its use can be both domestic and hospitality.

Background of the invention

The high gastronomic value is known and culinary that have such food products, such as they can be: cheese, ham, sausages, pate, or similar, it is consequence of the great hobby that there is to its consumption in all the world. In addition to the high price that this type of Foods when they are top quality.

Excellence in taste, textures, aromas and Other product parameters can only be achieved if in all the process meets the highest quality requirements. Within This process is the conservation of the product since its purchase and, since it starts to cut.

The first part of the process is guaranteed by the companies responsible for the elaboration, healing and distribution. These companies are usually specialists and their maximum quality standards. But since the purchase of food, until its consumption stops, in many cases, being in the hands of specialists and in many cases, poor conservation by the end customer can make the product "sick" and lose certain properties of the product, which dries, molds or other problems. Thus, the conservation and manipulation of product is key in the process, that's why hygienic handling avoids problems, both in the quality of the product, as well as its healthiness.

Description of the invention

This is why the conservation chamber of the The invention will facilitate that there is no reduction in quality. Maintaining optimum temperature and humidity conditions and, facilitating food preservation in optimal conditions Hygiene

The dimensions of the camera have been designed thinking about domestic consumers and small hospitality and median. The camera is designed to be placed on countertops conventional with standard measures or on bar bars and restaurants. It is able to preserve, for example, several cheeses, sausages and, optionally, it has a section for preservation of hams, before or after its start consumption. This is why it is not only perfect for home use, but also for professionals who wish to keep these appreciated products in top quality conditions while being Exposed to your customers.

Description of the figures

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to facilitate the understanding of characteristics of the invention, is attached herein descriptive a set of drawings in which, for illustrative purposes and not limiting, the following has been represented:

Figure 1 shows paths seen in section longitudinal, according to a vertical and horizontal plane, as well as a side view of a camera for product preservation food, made according to the invention.

Figure 2 shows a front elevation view and section according to a horizontal plane of an alternative embodiment of this camera.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As can be seen in the figures referenced, the chamber (1) has a closed body, whose interior is accessed through a door (2), normally hinged on elements (3) of this type. Inwardly it has a metal base, while the rest of its walls are made in methacrylate, with an anti-fingerprint treatment that prevents spots when touched; besides with a treatment anti-fog and anti-fungus. This door allows, in turn, the vision of the product inside, opening when turning on a horizontal (figure 1) or vertical axis (figure 2), allowing an opening of up to 90º and the seal with the rest of the chamber, in terms of humidity conditions and temperature. For this it has a polymeric joint or another material that closes properly.

Inside the chamber is housed at least a thermometric and hygrometric probe (6) that tests the values of temperature and humidity every so often and sends the data to a processing unit, which values them and considers if necessary Correct the internal conditions of the camera.

In addition the camera has some fans (4) that facilitate the circulation of air with the outside evacuating the gases that can be produced inside the chamber derived from product fermentation.

If it is necessary to raise or lower the internal chamber temperature, it has a system of resistors (5) that modify the internal temperature to keep it at the optimum levels for each product.

The same happens with humidity. If the probe captures lack or excess humidity, through the humidifier system (7), hygrometric conditions are increased or decreased.

In the example shown in Figure 1 the cheeses and other products in their conservation position are supported on the metal base. That, as stated, will be metallic materials, among others, that will allow maximum hygiene also maintaining humidity, ventilation and Ideal temperature for these products.

In the example of figure 2 a May chamber size, provided with a door (2nd) that has a enough height to receive inside a ham or large sausages, while on the other side are observed two independent chambers with their corresponding doors (2b) and (2c), after which cheeses and sausages can be stored by example.

Once nature is sufficiently described of the invention, as well as a preferred embodiment, for the appropriate purposes that the materials, form, size and arrangement of the elements described may be modified, as long as this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention claimed in continuation.
