WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/190552
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a technology that makes it possible to return frozen bread to a state that is close to freshly baked bread. According to the present invention, a thawing device comprises a steam generation device that supplies water vapor to the inside of a thawing chamber, a heater that radiates infrared light at frozen bread that has been introduced into the thawing chamber, and a microwave radiation device that radiates microwaves into the thawing chamber. When frozen bread is to be thawed, the steam generation device, the heater, and the microwave radiation device are all run for the entirety of a heating period of, for example, 300 seconds. When the steam generation device is run, the gas inside the thawing chamber is kept at normal pressure while being discharged from the thawing chamber to create a flow of gas inside the thawing chamber.
