Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of brown sugar production, and particularly relates to a sugar boiling equipment for producing brown sugar and a sugar boiling process. BACKGROUND

[0002] Brown sugar processing is a process of converting sugar-containing raw materials such as sugarcane into brown sugar products through a series of processes. The basic steps include squeezing sugarcane to obtain cane juice, removing impurities after clarification, and then boiling. During boiling, the water in the sugar solution evaporates continuously, and the concentration of sugar gradually increases. Proper stirring is needed during this process to ensure uniform heating of the sugar solution and prevent local overheating. When the sugar solution reaches a certain concentration, it is cooled and solidified, and then processed through crushing, molding, and other processes to finally produce the common brown sugar product on the market.

[0003] However, in the traditional brown sugar boiling process, the production process relies heavily on manual operation. For example, after the boiling process is completed, the operator has to manually pour the sugar solution by hand. Since the brown sugar solution has a very high viscosity, the flow rate during pouring is extremely slow. The entire process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the operator needs to maintain high concentration and exert a large amount of force to push the sugar solution out. This operation method is not only extremely inefficient, but also significantly slows down the production progress. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] Reference to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment. The appearances of the phrase "in one embodiment" in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are they necessarily all referring to a common or identical embodiment. It is appreciated that embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0039] The embodiment of the present application provides a sugar boiling equipment and a sugar boiling process for producing brown sugar. Figures 1-10 As shown in the figure, the sugar boiling equipment for producing brown sugar comprises a base plate 1, a base box 2 arranged on the base plate 1, a sugar boiling tank 3 arranged on the base box 2, a tank cover 4 arranged on the sugar boiling tank 3, an inner container 5 arranged in the sugar boiling tank 3, a heating device comprising an electromagnetic induction heating coil 6 and a far-infrared heating plate 7, the electromagnetic induction heating coil 6 and the far-infrared heating plate 7 being arranged on the sugar boiling tank 3 and being in contact with the inner container 5, a pushing mechanism arranged in the inner container 5 and capable of moving to push the sugar liquid out when the sugar boiling tank 3 is tilted, a stirring mechanism arranged in the inner container 5 and used for stirring brown sugar materials, a tilting mechanism arranged on the base box 2 and used for controlling the tilting of the sugar boiling tank 3, and a linkage gas supply mechanism arranged on the base plate 1 and used for supplying gas into a gas chamber between the pushing plate 8 and the inner container 5.

[0040] In the embodiment, when the equipment is started, the inner container 5 in the sugar boiling tank 3 is heated by the electromagnetic induction heating coil 6 and the far-infrared heating plate 7, and the stirring mechanism is started to fully mix and boil the brown sugar materials. Before the sugar liquid reaches the process requirement, the tank cover 4 is kept closed to ensure the sealing and hygiene of the boiling process. When the materials need to be discharged, the tilting mechanism drives the sugar boiling tank 3 to tilt to a preset angle, and the linkage gas supply mechanism injects high-pressure gas into the gas chamber between the pushing plate 8 and the inner container 5. The pushing plate 8 slides along the inner wall of the inner container 5 under the action of gas pressure, and the high-viscosity sugar liquid is quickly pushed to the discharge port. Compared with the traditional time-consuming and labor-intensive manual discharge, the discharge efficiency of the equipment is improved by more than 60% through the cooperation of the tilting mechanism and the pushing mechanism. The double heating device makes the sugar liquid evenly heated, the gas pushing discharge technology reduces the sugar liquid residue, the overall energy consumption of the equipment is reduced by 35%, and the production environment and operation safety are significantly improved.

[0041] In the further preferred embodiment of the present application, the pushing mechanism comprises a pushing plate 8 arranged in the inner container 5, a spline sleeve 11 rotatably mounted on the inner container 5 through a bearing, the bottom end of the spline sleeve 11 driving the sugar boiling tank 3, and a spline pipe 12 rotatably mounted on the pushing plate 8 through a sealing bearing, the bottom end of the spline pipe 12 penetrating through the spline sleeve 11 and extending out of the sugar boiling tank 3.

[0042] In the embodiment, the torque is transmitted through the spline tube 12, and the spline tube 12 and the spline sleeve 11 realize axial sliding and circumferential transmission through the spline tooth structure. When the sugar melting tank 3 is tilted to a 45-degree discharging angle, the pushing plate 8 slides along the inner wall of the inner container 5 under the action of air pressure, and the spline tube 12 moves synchronously with the pushing plate 8, and the outer spline of the spline tube 12 is always in meshing state with the inner spline of the spline sleeve 11; so that the pushing plate 8 can still maintain a linear motion track in the complex motion of the tilted tank body. The axial telescopic spline structure allows the pushing plate 8 to adjust the stroke within a set range.

[0043] In the further preferred embodiment of the application, the stirring mechanism comprises: a turbine stirrer 13 fixed on the spline tube 12 for stirring the sugar liquid; a support 9 fixed on the spline tube 12 through a connecting block; and a scraper 10 fixed on the support 9 for hanging materials.

[0044] In the embodiment, during the sugar melting process, the spline tube 12 rotates at a speed of 120-180 r / min under the action of the driving device, and the turbine stirrer 13 fixed thereon forms a three-dimensional spiral stirring flow field. The scraper 10 and the support 9 form an adjustable-angle scraping assembly through the connecting block, and the cutting edge of the scraper 10 always maintains a 0.5 mm gap with the inner wall of the inner container 5, continuously scraping off the adhered sugar liquid during the rotation process to prevent the pot from coking. The stirring mechanism improves the uniformity of the sugar liquid to 99.6% through the combined motion of the turbine and the scraper, and the efficiency is 2.3 times higher than that of the traditional paddle type stirring.

[0045] In the further preferred embodiment of the application, the pouring mechanism comprises: a first rotating rod 14 symmetrically assembled on the base box 2 through a bearing seat; a connecting frame 15 fixed on the first rotating rod 14, and the connecting frame 15 is fixedly connected with the outer wall of the sugar melting tank 3; and a fifth bevel gear 40 fixed on the first rotating rod 14 for transmission.

[0046] In the embodiment, when the sugar liquid needs to be poured, the first rotating rod 14 is rotated through the fifth bevel gear 40, the connecting frame 15 rotates synchronously with the rotating rod 14, and the sugar melting tank 3 is stably tilted around the axis of the first rotating rod 14. The pouring angle can be accurately adjusted within the range of 0-90° through the control system, and when the sugar liquid in the tank reaches the discharging position, the pushing plate 8 moves to form a cooperative discharging mode of mechanical pushing and gravity drainage. The pouring mechanism improves the maximum tilting angular velocity of the sugar melting tank 3 through bevel gear transmission, and the efficiency is improved compared with the traditional manual pouring.

[0047] The linkage gas supply mechanism comprises a gas tank 20 fixedly installed on the base plate 1, a first screw rod 21 rotatably installed in the gas tank 20 through a bearing, a piston plate 22 threadedly sleeved on the first screw rod 21, a belt pulley 23 fixedly installed on the first screw rod 21 and the first rotating rod 14 respectively, a transmission belt 24 sleeved on the corresponding belt pulley 23, and a first telescopic pipe 25 fixedly communicated with the gas tank 20, wherein the gas outlet end of the first telescopic pipe 25 is communicated with the spline pipe 12 through a rotary joint 26.

[0048] In the embodiment, when the pouring mechanism drives the first rotating rod 14 to rotate, the belt pulley 23 drives the first screw rod 21 in the gas tank 20 to synchronously rotate through the transmission belt 24. The piston plate 22 threadedly sleeved on the first screw rod 21 is guided and limited in position and moves along the screw rod axis direction to compress the air in the gas tank 20. The high-pressure air flows through the first telescopic pipe 25 and the rotary joint 26, is injected into the air chamber between the pushing plate 8 and the inner container 5 through the hollow channel of the spline pipe 12, and pushes the pushing plate 8 to move forward at a speed of 0.3 m / s. The design of the rotary joint 26 allows the spline pipe 12 to rotate while keeping the air path sealed. The linkage gas supply mechanism realizes complete synchronization of the pouring action and the gas supply operation through mechanical transmission, and is relatively energy-saving compared with the traditional independent gas supply system.

[0049] In the further preferred embodiment of the application, the inner wall of the tank cover 4 is provided with a near-infrared spectrum sensor 48, and the tank cover 4 is provided with an air pressure gauge for detecting air pressure.

[0050] In the embodiment, during the sugar boiling process, the near-infrared spectrum sensor 48 collects the spectrum data of the sugar liquid in real time, penetrates the sugar liquid, and analyzes the key parameters such as the sugar liquid concentration and the moisture content through an algorithm. The air pressure gauge synchronously monitors the change of the air pressure in the tank. When the sugar liquid concentration reaches 92%±0.5%, the control system is triggered to automatically reduce the heating power by 15% and increase the stirring speed to 200 r / min, so as to ensure the supersaturation. The monitoring system realizes non-contact online detection of the quality of the sugar liquid through the near-infrared spectrum sensor 48, the concentration detection accuracy reaches ±0.3%, and the efficiency is improved by 5 times compared with manual sampling inspection. The dynamic monitoring of the air pressure gauge improves the safety of the equipment operation, and the product qualified rate is improved with the intelligent control strategy.

[0051] In the further preferred embodiment of the application, the tank cover 4 is fixedly communicated with a second telescopic pipe 47 for exhausting air, the second telescopic pipe 47 is provided with an air valve, and the outer wall of the sugar boiling tank 3 is provided with a temperature controller matched with the electromagnetic induction heating coil 6 and the far-infrared heating plate 7.

[0052] In this embodiment, during the initial stage of sugar boiling, the temperature of the electromagnetic induction heating coil 6 and the far-infrared heating plate 7 is monitored in real time by the temperature controller, and the heating power is dynamically adjusted by the PID algorithm to make the temperature of the inner container 5 rise to 120 DEG C within 15 minutes and remain stable. At the same time, the gas valve on the second telescopic pipe 47 is opened by 15% opening degree, and the initial water vapor is discharged. When the near-infrared spectrum sensor 48 detects that the sugar liquid concentration exceeds 70%, the gas valve is automatically closed to 5% micro-discharge state to maintain the micro-positive pressure environment in the tank; 3 minutes before discharging, the temperature controller reduces the heating power to 30%, and cooperates with the air pushing action of the pushing plate 8 to reduce the sugar liquid temperature gradient to 5 DEG C / cm. When the discharge port sugar liquid temperature is detected to be lower than 105 DEG C, the temperature controller automatically triggers the electromagnetic induction heating coil 6 to perform local compensation heating to ensure the fluidity of the sugar liquid. The second telescopic pipe 47 maintains 10% opening degree during the whole discharging process, and synchronously discharges the trace steam generated in the pushing process; the temperature control and exhaust system realizes accurate temperature control through intelligent linkage, and the temperature deviation is reduced from ±8 DEG C to ±2 DEG C compared with the traditional manual temperature adjustment, and the caramelization rate of the product is reduced by 62%. The dynamic gas valve control of the second telescopic pipe 47 reduces the steam discharge amount by 40%, and cooperates with the stepwise cooling strategy of the temperature controller to reduce the overall energy consumption by 29%. The modular temperature controller supports the completion of heating device parameter reset within 5 minutes, and the flexibility of the equipment to adapt to different sugar production is improved by 3 times.

[0053] In a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the spline pipe 12 is provided with an air channel 49 and an air hole 50 for supplying gas into the air chamber between the pushing plate 8 and the inner container 5.

[0054] In this embodiment, during discharging, high-pressure gas enters the annular air chamber at the back of the pushing plate 8 through the air channel 49 of the spline pipe 12, and is vertically sprayed into the inner wall of the inner container 5 at a pressure of 0.8 MPa through the uniformly distributed air holes 50. The pushing plate 8 is driven by air pressure to advance at a speed of 0.4 m / s, and cooperates with the sugar boiling tank 3 with an inclination angle of 60 DEG to form a composite discharging power of air pushing and gravity.

[0055] In a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the tank cover 4 is fixedly installed with an adjustable adjusting frame 19 for adjusting the opening and closing of the tank cover 4, and the spline pipe 12 is fixedly installed with a second bevel gear 31 for transmission.

[0056] In this embodiment, the tank cover 4 is stably opened or closed by rotating the adjusting frame 19. The spline pipe 12 can receive external power through the second bevel gear 31 to realize independent transmission control of the stirring mechanism and the pushing mechanism.
