Description

Cold storage apparatus of unmanned chicken cooking system

The present invention relates to a refrigeration storage device for an unmanned chicken cooking system, and more particularly, by automating the chicken preparation process before putting the chicken packaged and stored in a refrigerated space into a frying powder container, thereby preparing and processing chicken more quickly. It relates to a refrigeration storage device of an unmanned chicken cooking system that can digest large orders.

In general, chicken is a food in which chicken is cut into pieces, coated with flour, etc., and then fried in boiling oil.

Such chicken is completed through several cooking steps for its cooking, which takes a considerable amount of time to cook, which adversely affects profitability as a chain store. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an automatic device for cooking chicken, and through this, it is necessary to improve the productivity of chicken stores including chicken chain stores.

Usually, when an order is placed in a chain store, the cook checks the chicken that matches the ordered menu from among the chickens packaged and stored in the refrigeration space, removes the package, removes the ice cubes attached to the chicken, and removes the fried powder. Put the chicken in a container with fried chicken and apply frying powder on the surface of the chicken, then fry it in oil heated to an appropriate temperature, then take the fried chicken out of the oil and go through a series of processes to remove the oil. In other words, it is necessary to go through the steps of preparing the chicken, applying frying powder to the surface of the chicken, frying it in oil, and removing the oil.

Conventionally, since the cook had to manually perform the above steps, it is difficult to fry a large amount of chicken, and even if the order quantity is large, it cannot be digested.

Because of these problems, there is a problem that customers are dissatisfied because there are differences in taste even in chain-type chicken stores that use the same brand.
