[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 6 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0033] A soft-boiled quail egg ripening device comprises a heating component 1 and a cooling component 2. Figure 5 As shown, there are multiple heating components 1 and cooling components 2, and the heating components 1 and cooling components 2 are alternately arranged to achieve the process requirements of heating-cooling-heating-cooling for maturation. Each heating component 1 and cooling component 2 are independently arranged, and adjacent heating components 1 and cooling components 2 are connected by a transmission plate to facilitate the transmission of quail eggs between the heating components 1 and the cooling components 2. Each independent heating component 1 and cooling component 2 is provided with a transmission roller 4 for transmitting quail eggs. The transmission roller 4 keeps the quail eggs rotating while transporting the quail eggs through. The transmission roller 4 is driven by a servo motor, and each heating component 1 and cooling component 2 can independently control the rotation speed and transmission speed of its transmission roller 4.

[0034] In this embodiment, the basic structural principles of the heating component 1 and the cooling component 2 are the same, so only the structure of the heating component 1 is introduced below, and the cooling component 2 can replace the heating function with the cooling function according to its cooling function.

[0035] The heating assembly 1 is provided with a heating cavity 11, one end of the heating cavity 11 is a heating inlet 12, and the other end is a heating outlet 13. The transmission roller 4 is laid throughout the entire heating cavity 11, and the transmission roller 4 drives the quail eggs to be transported from the heating inlet 12 to the heating outlet 13. The length of the heating cavity 11 and the transmission speed of the transmission roller 4 determine the heating time of the quail eggs in the heating cavity;

[0036] An insulation structure 3 is arranged between adjacent heating components 1 or cooling components 2. In this embodiment, the insulation structure 3 adopts a curtain 3, and the curtain 3 is arranged at the heating inlet 12 and the heating outlet 13, so that the temperature transfer is blocked before and after the heating cavity 11, which greatly reduces the temperature influence of the adjacent heating components 1 and cooling components 2.

[0037] A spray pipe 5 is arranged in the heating cavity 11, and the spray pipe 5 sprays water of preset temperature to act on the quail eggs. The spray pipe 5 includes a spray main pipe 51 and a spray branch pipe 52. The spray branch pipe 52 is provided with a spray nozzle 53. The spray branch pipe 52 is distributed in the heating cavity 11, and the spray main pipe 51 is connected to the spray branch pipe 52.

[0038] A water receiving trough 14 is provided at the bottom of the heating cavity 11. After the spray water acts on the quail eggs, it gathers at the bottom of the heating cavity. The water receiving trough 14 is provided at the bottom of the heating cavity 11. The water receiving trough 14 collects the heating water to form circulating water and outputs the water to the filter water tank 7. After the filter water tank 7 passes through multiple layers of filtration, the water is purified and transported to the energy conversion module 6 through the first water pump 8.

[0039] The transducer module 6 includes a transducer pipe 61 and a transducer water tank 62. The transducer pipe 61 is laid in the transducer water tank 62. Both ends of the transducer pipe 61 are connected to the first water pump 8 and the second water pump 9 respectively. The water purified by the filter water tank 7 enters the transducer pipe 61. The water in the transducer water tank 62 is set to a heating temperature by means of electric heating, etc., and the heat energy is transferred to the circulating water through the transducer pipe 61 to ensure accurate control of the temperature of the circulating water. The laying of the transducer pipe 61 effectively increases the contact area with the hot water in the transducer water tank 62. The transducer pipe 61 uses a copper pipe, and the transducer efficiency is high.

[0040] A second water pump 9 is provided between the energy conversion module 6 and the spray pipe 5 , and the heated circulating water is pressurized and sent to the spray pipe 5 by the second water pump 9 , so as to facilitate the subsequent spraying use of the spray pipe 6 .

[0041] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the spray pipe 5 is provided with a detachable unit module, which includes a spray branch pipe 52, a nozzle 53 and a part of the spray main pipe 51, mainly the part of the spray main pipe 51 located in the heating chamber 11. The detachable unit module is detachably connected to the spray main pipe 51 via a quick connector 54, and the quick connector 54 can use a common quick connector.

[0042] Since the spray pipe 5 of the present invention uses circulating water, although there is a filter box, there are still small particles of debris in the water; during continuous operation, when the nozzle 53 is blocked by small debris and even affects production, the entire detachable unit module can be quickly disassembled and replaced with a spare one through the quick connector 54, so that the impact of blockage on continuous production can be minimized without stopping for cleaning.

[0043] Temperature sensors are provided in the energy conversion module 6 and the heating cavity 11 to monitor the spraying temperature in real time to ensure that the temperature meets the preset value.

[0044] The working principle and use process of the present invention are as follows: quail eggs enter the ripening process, the ripened quail eggs are transported to the heating inlet 12 of the heating component 1, the quail eggs are sent into the heating cavity 11 by the transmission roller 4 and continuously transported in the heating cavity 11 until they are output from the heating outlet 13, during which the quail eggs are kept rotating continuously; after the quail eggs enter the heating cavity 11, the spray pipe 5 sprays the ripening hot water through the spray nozzle 53 to heat and ripen the quail eggs, and the sprayed hot water acts on the quail eggs and then falls to the bottom of the heating cavity 11, The water receiving trough 14 arranged at the bottom of the heating cavity 11 guides the water to the filter water tank 7 for circulating water. After filtering the water, the filter water tank 7 transports the water to the transducer module 6 through the first water pump 8. In the transducer module 6, the transducer pipe 61 is connected to the first water pump 8 to receive the circulating water. The circulating water in the transducer pipe 61 is converted and heated by the transducer water tank 62. The other end of the transducer pipe 61 is connected to the second water pump 9. The heated circulating water re-enters the spray pipe 5 through the second water pump for spraying again, thereby completing the water circulation.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred example of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
