[0002] A steam boiler wine distiller is a device that uses steam boiler technology for liquor distillation. It generally consists of the following components:
[0003] Steam boiler: The steam boiler is the core component of the distillation process. It generates high-temperature and high-pressure steam for heating the wine liquid. The steam boiler can use different fuels, such as coal, natural gas, petroleum, or wood.
[0004] Distillation chamber: The distillation chamber is the space for heating and distilling the wine liquid. It is usually made of stainless steel and has appropriate sealing performance and high-temperature resistance characteristics.
[0005] Condenser: The condenser is used to convert steam into liquid for collecting the distilled alcohol. The condenser cools the steam to make it condense, and then collects the liquid into an alcohol collector.
[0006] Control system: The steam boiler wine distiller is usually equipped with a control system for monitoring and controlling the temperature, pressure, and other parameters during the distillation process of the steam boiler. These control systems can be operated manually or automatically.
[0007] The steam boiler wine distiller realizes the distillation and purification of wine by heating the wine liquid and evaporating it into steam, and then converting the steam into liquid through the condensation process.

[0025] High-temperature steam enters the wine steaming kettle to cook the distiller's yeast to form wine steam. The wine steam enters the condensation device, which has a primary heat exchange component, a secondary heat exchange component, and a tertiary heat exchange component.

Moreover, during the entire heat exchange process, the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel enters the flash tank under the action of a water pump to accelerate steam generation. During the entire heat exchange process, the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel enters the cold storage tank to be cooled and then returns to the heat exchange channel to improve the heat exchange efficiency. This cycle is repeated to improve the wine steaming efficiency and save energy.
[0026] The first object of the present invention can also be solved by the following technical measures:

The upper end of the heat exchange tube is connected to the upper opening, and the lower end of the heat exchange tube is connected to the lower opening.
[0029] The high-temperature wine liquid in the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank enters the vertical heat exchange tubes through the upper openings. The flow direction of the high-temperature wine liquid changes, and it enters the small space of the heat exchange tubes from the large space of the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, slowing down the flow rate of the high-temperature wine liquid and prolonging the heat exchange time, thus greatly improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0030] Further, it also includes a hollow cylinder with an open bottom. The hollow cylinder is placed at the central position of the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, and the second heat exchange coil is wound around the outer periphery of the hollow cylinder.
[0031] The wine vapor in the small space of the heat exchange tube enters the large space of the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, slowing down the flow rate of the medium-temperature wine liquid. Moreover, the hollow cylinder is placed at the center of the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, reducing the space of the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank and increasing the opportunity for the medium-temperature wine liquid to contact and exchange heat with the second heat exchange coil, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0032] Further, there are at least two groups of the second heat exchange coils. The two groups of second heat exchange coils are wound around the outer periphery of the cylinder, and the two groups of second heat exchange coils are wound together with each other. There are at least two groups of the first heat exchange coils, and the two groups of first heat exchange coils are wound together with each other.

[0034] Further, the steam heat pump includes four groups of heat pump components, and the condensers of each group of heat pump components are all arranged in the flash evaporation tank.
[0035] Further, the wine distilling kettle includes a pot cover and a pot body. The pot cover is detachably buckled on the pot body. The third steam port is opened on the pot cover, the second steam port is opened at the bottom of the pot body, and a partition for placing distiller's yeast is arranged above the second steam port of the pot body.
[0036] Further, it further includes a control panel, a frame and an electric swing arm device. The steam heat pump and the condensation device are arranged on the frame. The electric swing arm device includes a vertical frame, a horizontal frame, a motor, a cylinder, a state locking component and a pot cover connecting part. The vertical frame is rotatably arranged on the frame. The motor is arranged on the frame and connected to the vertical frame. One end of the horizontal frame is slidably connected to the vertical frame, and the horizontal frame can slide along the length direction of the vertical frame. The state locking component is arranged on the horizontal frame, and the state locking component locks the height state of the horizontal frame. The cylinder is arranged at the other end of the horizontal frame. The pot cover connecting part is fixed on the pot cover. The telescopic rod of the cylinder is connected to the pot cover connecting part. The control panel is arranged on the frame. The steam heat pump, the electronic control valve, the water pump, the motor and the cylinder are respectively electrically connected to the control panel.
[0037] The control panel starts the cylinder, and the cylinder drives the pot cover to lift and lower through the pot cover connecting component, so as to perform the operation of opening or closing the pot cover. The control panel starts the motor, and the motor drives the pot cover to rotate through the vertical frame and the horizontal frame, so as to move the pot cover away from or close to the pot body, which is convenient for the user to clean the wine distilling kettle or convenient for the user to add distiller's yeast to the wine distilling kettle. The whole process is automated, reducing the working intensity of the user.
[0038] The second object of the present invention is achieved as follows:
[0039] A method for distilling liquor using an automatic liquor distilling device with a high-temperature steam heat pump, comprising the following steps:
[0040] Step 1: Start the cylinder through the control panel. The telescopic rod of the cylinder drives the pot lid to rise through the pot lid connection part, separating the pot lid from the pot body. Then, the control panel starts the motor, and the motor drives the cross frame to rotate through the vertical frame, thereby driving the pot lid to move and making the pot lid leave the pot body. At this time, the user can place the distiller's yeast in the liquor distilling kettle.
[0041] Step 2: Start the motor through the control panel. The motor drives the cross frame to rotate through the vertical frame, thereby driving the pot lid to move and making the pot lid located above the pot body. Then, the control panel starts the cylinder, and the telescopic rod of the cylinder drives the pot lid to descend through the pot lid connection part, making the pot lid and the pot body buckle together.
[0042] Step 3: Start the electronic control valve through the control panel. The external water source enters the heat exchange channel along the external water source inlet. At the same time, the control panel starts the water pump, and the water pump pumps the water in the heat exchange channel into the flash tank and the cold storage tank respectively.
[0043] Step 4: Start the heat pump component of the steam heat pump through the control panel. The initial start-up requires 25 - 30 minutes for preheating.
[0044] Step 5: After the preheating is completed, the heat generated by the condenser heats the water in the flash tank to form steam. The steam enters the liquor distilling kettle through the first steam port, the steam pipe, and the second steam port to heat the distiller's yeast to form liquor steam.
[0045] Step 5, the liquor steam enters the condensation device through the third steam port, the steam delivery pipe, and the fourth steam port. The liquor steam enters the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, and the water in the first heat exchange coil exchanges heat with the liquor steam in the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank. The liquor steam in the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank is heat-exchanged to form high-temperature liquor liquid.
[0046] Step 6, the high-temperature liquor liquid enters the heat exchange pipe, and the water in the middle inner cavity of the heat exchange pipe exchanges heat with the high-temperature liquor liquid in the heat exchange pipe to form medium-temperature liquor liquid.
[0047] Step 7, the medium-temperature liquor liquid enters the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, and the water in the second heat exchange coil exchanges heat with the liquor steam in the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank. The medium-temperature liquor liquid in the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank forms low-temperature liquor liquid and is discharged through the liquid discharge port.
[0048] Step 8: The water in the first heat exchange coil, the water in the middle inner cavity of the heat exchange pipe, and the water in the second heat exchange coil form circulating water. The water pump pumps out the circulating water and pumps it into the flash tank. Since the temperature of the circulating water is higher than the temperature of normal temperature water, the heat generated by the condenser heats the circulating water in the flash tank to quickly form steam, improving the steam formation efficiency.
[0049] Step Nine: The water in the first heat exchange coil, the water in the inner cavity of the middle part of the heat exchange tube, and the water in the second heat exchange coil form circulating water. The water pump pumps out the circulating water and pumps it into the cold storage tank. The cold generated by the evaporator cools the circulating water in the cold storage tank to form cold water. The cold water flows along the second circulating water outlet of the cold storage tank and the first circulating water inlet of the heat exchange tank to connect to the heat exchange channel, reducing the water temperature of the heat exchange channel and improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0050] Step Ten: After the high-temperature steam heat pump automatic liquor steaming equipment is started, Step Eight and Step Nine work in a cycle.
[0051] In the above liquor steaming method, the steam heat pump generates steam to steam the koji in the liquor steaming kettle to form liquor steam. The liquor steam enters the condensing device. The liquor steam exchanges heat through the primary heat exchange component, the secondary heat exchange component, and the tertiary heat exchange component to form low-temperature liquor liquid. At the same time, the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel during the heat exchange process enters the cold storage tank under the action of the water pump to be cooled into cold water and then flows back to the heat exchange channel to improve the heat exchange efficiency. Another part of the high-temperature liquid enters the flash tank to improve the steam generation efficiency of the flash tank. Using the steam heat pump to manufacture steam is efficient, low-cost, and recycle the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel to improve the heat exchange efficiency and save energy.
[0052] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0053] In the present invention, the high-temperature steam heat pump uses the principle of energy conversion to extract heat from a low-temperature heat source and raise it to a high temperature level suitable for liquor steaming. Compared with traditional heating methods, it can achieve higher energy utilization efficiency and energy-saving effects. The high-temperature steam heat pump automatic liquor steaming equipment can precisely control and adjust the temperature during the liquor steaming process to ensure the stability and consistency of the brewing process. The automatic liquor steaming equipment combines a high-temperature steam heat pump and an automatic control system to realize the automatic operation of the liquor steaming process. The operator only needs to set relevant parameters and monitor the process, and the equipment will automatically complete the liquor steaming task according to the preset program.
[0054] In the present invention, high-temperature steam enters the liquor steaming kettle to steam the koji to form liquor steam. The liquor steam enters the condensing device. The condensing device has a primary heat exchange component, a secondary heat exchange component, and a tertiary heat exchange component. After the liquor steam exchanges heat through the primary heat exchange component, the secondary heat exchange component, and the tertiary heat exchange component, it is converted from liquor steam into low-temperature liquor liquid. Moreover, during the entire heat exchange process, the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel enters the flash tank under the action of the water pump to accelerate steam generation. During the entire heat exchange process, the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel enters the cold storage tank to be cooled and then flows back to the heat exchange channel to improve the heat exchange efficiency. This cycle is repeated to improve the liquor steaming efficiency and save energy.
[0055] In the present invention, the high-temperature wine liquid in the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank enters the vertical heat exchange tubes through the upper openings. The flow direction of the high-temperature wine liquid changes, and it enters the small space of the heat exchange tubes from the large space in the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, slowing down the flow rate of the high-temperature wine liquid, prolonging the heat exchange time, and greatly improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0056] In the present invention, the wine vapor in the small space of the heat exchange tubes enters the large space in the upper inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, slowing down the flow rate of the medium-temperature wine liquid. Moreover, the hollow cylinder is placed at the central position of the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank, reducing the space in the lower inner cavity of the heat exchange tank and increasing the opportunity for the medium-temperature wine liquid to contact and exchange heat with the second heat exchange coil, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0057] In the present invention, the control panel activates the cylinder, and the cylinder drives the pot lid to lift or lower through the pot lid connecting component, thereby performing the operation of opening or closing the pot lid. The control panel activates the motor, and the motor drives the pot lid to rotate through the vertical frame and the horizontal frame, thereby moving the pot lid away from or closer to the pot body, facilitating the user to clean the wine still or add distiller's yeast to the wine still. The whole process is automated, reducing the user's work intensity.
[0058] In the present invention, in the above-mentioned wine distillation method, the steam heat pump generates steam to cook the distiller's yeast in the wine still to form wine vapor. The wine vapor enters the condensing device, and the wine vapor exchanges heat through the primary heat exchange component, the secondary heat exchange component, and the tertiary heat exchange component to form low-temperature wine liquid. At the same time, the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel during the heat exchange process enters the cold storage tank to be cooled into cold water under the action of the water pump and then returns to the heat exchange channel to improve the heat exchange efficiency. Another part of the high-temperature liquid enters the flash evaporation tank to improve the steam formation efficiency of the flash evaporation tank. Using the steam heat pump to generate steam is efficient, low-cost, recycling the high-temperature liquid in the heat exchange channel, improving the heat exchange efficiency, and saving energy.

[0093] Step 2: Start the motor 403 through the control panel 200. The motor 403 drives the cross frame 402 to rotate through the vertical frame 401, thereby driving the pot cover 23 to move and making the pot cover 23 located above the pot body 24. Then, the control panel 200 starts the cylinder 404, and the telescopic rod of the cylinder 404 drives the pot cover 23 to descend through the pot cover connecting part 405, making the pot cover 23 and the pot body 24 buckle together;
[0094] Step 3: Start the electronic control valve through the control panel 200. The outside water source enters the heat exchange channel 69 along the outside water source inlet 691. At the same time, the control panel 200 starts the water pump 10, and the water pump 10 pumps the water in the heat exchange channel 69 into the flash tank 4 and the cold storage tank 5 respectively;
[0095] Step 4: Start the heat pump component 11 of the steam heat pump 1 through the control panel 200. The initial start-up requires 25 - 30 minutes for preheating;
[0096] Step 5: After the preheating is completed, the heat generated by the condenser 113 heats the water in the flash tank 4 to form steam. The steam enters the distillation kettle 2 along the first steam port 42, the steam pipe 500, and the second steam port 21 to heat the distiller's yeast to form wine steam;
[0097] Step 5, the wine steam enters the condensation device 3 along the third steam port 22, the steam delivery pipe 600, and the fourth steam port 66. The wine steam enters the inner cavity of the upper part 63 of the heat exchange tank. The water in the first heat exchange coil 71 exchanges heat with the wine steam in the inner cavity of the upper part 63 of the heat exchange tank, and the wine steam in the inner cavity of the upper part 63 of the heat exchange tank exchanges heat to form high-temperature wine liquid;
[0098] Step 6, the high-temperature wine liquid enters the heat exchange pipe 81. The water in the middle inner cavity of the heat exchange pipe 81 exchanges heat with the high-temperature wine liquid in the heat exchange pipe 81 to form medium-temperature wine liquid;
[0099] Step 7, the medium-temperature wine liquid enters the inner cavity of the lower part 65 of the heat exchange tank. The water in the second heat exchange coil 91 exchanges heat with the wine steam in the inner cavity of the lower part 65 of the heat exchange tank, and the medium-temperature wine liquid in the inner cavity of the lower part 65 of the heat exchange tank forms low-temperature wine liquid and is discharged from the drain port 67;
[0100] Step Eight: The water in the first heat exchange coil 71, the water in the middle inner cavity of the heat exchange tube 81, and the water in the second heat exchange coil 91 form circulating water. The water pump 10 pumps out the circulating water and pumps it into the flash tank 4. Since the temperature of the circulating water is higher than that of the normal temperature water, the heat generated by the condenser 113 heats the circulating water in the flash tank 4 to quickly form steam, improving the steam formation efficiency;
[0101] Step Nine: The water in the first heat exchange coil 71, the water in the middle inner cavity of the heat exchange tube 81, and the water in the second heat exchange coil 91 form circulating water. The water pump 10 pumps out the circulating water and pumps it into the cold storage tank 5. The cold generated by the evaporator 112 cools the circulating water in the cold storage tank 5 to form cold water. The cold water flows along the second circulating water outlet 52 of the cold storage tank 5 and the first circulating water inlet 692 of the heat exchange tank 6 to connect to the heat exchange channel 69, reducing the water temperature of the heat exchange channel 69 and improving the heat exchange efficiency;
[0102] Step Ten: After the high-temperature steam heat pump 1 automatic distilling equipment is started, Step Eight and Step Nine work in a cycle.
