Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wine making, and in particular to an energy-saving cooling system for wine making. Background Art

[0002] In the winemaking process, distillation is one of the key steps to extract alcohol and other volatile components. Traditional wine vapor cooling devices usually adopt a single cooling tube design. When the high-temperature wine vapor passes through the cooling tube, it comes into contact with cooling water and cools down to condense into liquid. However, this simple cooling tube design has certain limitations. Especially when processing a large amount of steam, due to the limited surface area of ​​the cooling tube, the contact time between the steam and the cooling medium is short, resulting in low cooling efficiency. In addition, when the steam flow rate is large, the steam flows faster in the cooling tube, reducing the effective heat exchange with the cooling medium, thereby affecting the cooling effect. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a cooling device that can effectively increase the contact area between the wine vapor and the cooling medium and slow down the steam flow rate under large flow conditions to improve distillation efficiency and product quality. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention is intended to provide an energy-saving cooling system for wine making, so as to solve the problem of low wine vapor cooling efficiency in existing wine vapor cooling equipment.

[0004] An energy-saving cooling system for winemaking in the present scheme includes a cooling box, which is circulated and connected to a coolant storage tank, the cooling box is provided with an air inlet, a diverter box is provided inside the cooling box, the two sides of the diverter box are bent inward, a diverter piece for diverting gas is provided inside the diverter box, the bottom of the diverter box is connected to a plurality of guide pipes, the plurality of guide pipes are connected to a collecting pipe with gradually decreasing diameters, the reflux pipe is connected to a liquid outlet pipe, the liquid outlet pipe passes through the cooling box and is connected to a collecting box.

[0005] The working principle and beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: when in use, the cooling box is filled with coolant, and the wine vapor enters from the air inlet of the cooling box, and the gas enters the diverter box. Since the two sides of the diverter box are bent inward and close to each other, and a diverter is provided in the middle of the diverter box, the gas will be directly guided by the diverter to be closer to the side wall of the diverter box after entering the diverter box, and the wine vapor close to the side wall can better contact with the coolant, making condensation faster, and then the wine vapor is diverted into the guide pipe and cooled in batches, so as to achieve a better cooling effect. Finally, the wine vapor cooled in batches is gathered in the confluence pipe for temperature integration, and finally enters the collection box from the liquid outlet pipe. During the cooling period, the coolant circulates continuously to ensure the cooling effect of the coolant. The device in this scheme diverts the wine vapor to the side wall near the diversion box, so that the wine vapor can be close to the coolant and thus condense quickly, and then enters the guide pipe and is cooled in batches, which can disperse the heat and cool the batches faster. It is then collected in the conduit, at which time it has been condensed into liquid and is directly discharged from the liquid outlet pipe to the collection box for collection.

[0006] Furthermore, the diverter includes a diverter column with a gradually increasing diameter from top to bottom, a semicircular body is provided at the bottom of the diverter column, and the top of the diverter column is located at the bending position on both sides of the diverter box. After the wine vapor enters from the air inlet, it is diverted by the diverter column. Since the diameter of the diverter column gradually increases, and the bending positions on both sides of the diverter box reduce the flow at the bending position, the diverter column can better divert the wine vapor. The wine vapor gradually moves downward toward the inner wall position close to the diverter box along the shape of the diverter column. In the process of continuous infusion of wine vapor from above, the diverted wine vapor enters the adjacent guide pipes respectively and flows with the guide pipes.

[0007] Furthermore, a universal shaft is provided at the bottom of the semicircular body, and the semicircular body is universally connected to the bottom of the diverter box via the universal shaft.

[0008] Furthermore, there are two air inlets, and the ends of the two air inlets connected to the diverter box are inclined and close to each other. This arrangement can make the incoming wine vapor go toward the middle diverter, making the diversion faster and more uniform.

[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of the guide pipes are arranged in a ring at the bottom of the diversion box. Since the gas in the diversion box approaches the wall of the diversion box along the diversion column, the wine vapor should be arranged around the outer circle of the diversion column. The position distribution of the plurality of guide pipes is arranged in a ring shape, so that the wine vapor can enter the guide pipe faster.

[0010] Furthermore, a liquid outlet is provided at the bottom of the cooling box, a liquid inlet is provided at a position near the top of the side wall of the cooling box, the liquid outlet is connected to the coolant storage box, a water pump is provided in the coolant storage box, the water pump is connected to the water pump, and the water pump is connected to the liquid inlet. Flushing the coolant from top to bottom can better comprehensively cool the coolant with a higher temperature in the cooling box. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] Figure 3 This is a wine making process flow chart. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] The following is a further detailed description through specific implementation methods:

[0015] The figure marks in the drawings of the specification include: collecting box 1, liquid outlet pipe 2, cooling box 3, reflux pipe 4, guide pipe 5, diversion box 6, semicircular body 7, diversion column 8, air inlet 9, liquid outlet 10, coolant storage box 11, water suction pipe 12, water pump 13, liquid inlet 14, universal shaft 15.

[0016] Example 1

[0017] Basically as attached Figure 1 As shown: an energy-saving cooling system for wine making, comprising a cooling box 3, the cooling box 3 is circulated and connected with a coolant storage box 11, a liquid outlet 10 is arranged at the bottom of the cooling box 3, a liquid inlet 14 is arranged near the top of the side wall of the cooling box 3, the liquid outlet 10 is connected with the coolant storage box 11, a water pump 12 is arranged in the coolant storage box 11, the water pump 12 is connected with a water pump 13, the water pump 12 is connected with the liquid inlet 14, the cooling box 3 is provided with two air inlets 9, one end of the two air inlets 9 connected with the diverter box 6 is inclined and close to each other, the cooling box 3 is provided with a diverter box 6, The two sides of the diverter box 6 are bent inward, and a diverter piece for diverting the gas is provided in the diverter box 6. The diverter piece includes a diverter column 8 whose diameter gradually increases from top to bottom, and a semicircular body 7 is provided at the bottom of the diverter column 8. The semicircular body 7 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the diverter box 6, and the top of the diverter column 8 is located at the bending position on both sides of the diverter box 6. The bottom of the diverter box 6 is connected to multiple guide pipes 5, and the multiple guide pipes 5 are arranged around the bottom of the diverter box 6. The multiple guide pipes 5 are connected to a conduit with a gradually decreasing diameter, and the reflux pipe 4 is connected to a liquid outlet pipe 2, and the liquid outlet pipe 2 passes through the cooling box 3 and is connected to the collecting box 1.

[0018] When in use, the cooling box 3 is filled with coolant, and the wine vapor enters from the air inlet 9 of the cooling box 3. The air inlet 9 is tilted to spray the wine vapor toward the top of the diverter column 8, and the gas enters the diverter box 6 and is diverted by the diverter column 8. As the diameter of the diverter column 8 gradually increases, and the bending positions on both sides of the diverter box 6 reduce the flow rate at the bend, the diverter column 8 can better divert the wine vapor. The wine vapor gradually moves downward along the shape of the diverter column 8 toward the inner wall position close to the diverter box 6. In the process of continuous infusion of wine vapor from above, the diverted wine vapor enters the nearby guide pipe 5 respectively, flows along the guide pipe 5, and the wine vapor Steam can better contact with the coolant when it is close to the side wall, making condensation faster. Since the gas in the diverter box 6 is close to the wall of the diverter box 6 along the diverter column 8, the wine vapor at this time should be arranged around the outer circle of the diverter column 8. The position distribution of multiple guide tubes 5 is set to be ring-shaped, which can make the wine vapor enter the guide tube 5 faster and be cooled in multiple batches, so that a better cooling effect can be achieved. Finally, the wine vapor cooled in batches is collected in the confluence pipe for temperature integration, and finally enters the collection box 1 from the liquid outlet pipe 2. During the cooling period, the coolant circulates continuously to ensure the cooling effect of the coolant. The device in this scheme diverts the wine vapor to the side wall close to the diverter box 6, so that the wine vapor can be close to the coolant, so as to condense quickly, and then enter the guide tube 5 and cool in batches, which can disperse the heat and cool faster in batches. Then it is collected in the confluence pipe, and it has been condensed into liquid at this time, and is directly discharged from the liquid outlet pipe 2 to the collection box 1 for collection.

[0019] Example 2

[0020] Basically as attached Figure 2 As shown, the difference from embodiment 1 is that a universal shaft 15 is provided at the bottom of the semicircular body 7, and the semicircular body 7 is universally connected to the bottom of the diverter box 6 through the universal shaft 15. This arrangement can make the diversion more uniform, and when the amount of wine vapor on one side is large, the wine vapor can pass quickly.

[0021] The device in this scheme is used in brewing wine. The whole process is as follows Figure 3As shown, the circulating hot water first enters the hot water pipe, and is pumped out by the hot water circulation pump A and the hot water circulation pump B. When the temperature is lower than X1, it directly enters the brewing cooling device. When the temperature is higher than X1, it enters the plate heat exchanger A and the plate heat exchanger B. When the outlet water temperature of the plate heat exchanger A and the plate heat exchanger B is lower than X2, it directly enters the brewing cooling device. When the temperature is higher than X2, it enters the cooling tower A and the cooling tower B again, and passes through the cooling water circulation pump A and the cooling water circulation pump B. When the temperature is higher than X3, it returns to the plate heat exchanger A and the plate heat exchanger B to continue heat exchange. When the temperature is lower than X3, it passes through the quartz sand filter and enters the brewing cooling device through the solenoid valve. When the temperature is lower than X4, it directly enters the cold water tank, and finally passes through the ultraviolet / electromagnetic sterilization device, and then through the cold water circulation pump A and the cold water circulation pump B, and finally circulates the cold water out. The water in the cooling tower A, the cooling tower B and the cold water tank is replenished by tap water, and passes through the water softener and then enters the cooling tower A, the cooling tower B and the cold water tank respectively.

It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several deformations and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present invention, which should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention, and these will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent.
