Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of egg liquid processing and sterilization technology, specifically to an egg liquid sterilization box with a defoaming mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the food processing industry, egg liquid is a commonly used and important raw material, widely used in baked goods, egg product processing, sauce preparation and other fields. However, egg liquid may contain various bacteria and microorganisms. If it is not effectively sterilized, it will affect the quality and safety of food, shorten the shelf life of food, and may even threaten the health of consumers. Therefore, in the process of egg liquid processing, an egg liquid sterilization box is needed to achieve the sterilization treatment of egg liquid.

[0003] Existing technology (Chinese patent publication number: CN220274841U, publication date: 2024-01-02) discloses a water bath heating device for processing whole egg liquid, including a water bath tank, a sterilization tank inside the water bath tank, a rotating tube vertically inserted inside the sterilization tank, a stirring tube on the bottom side wall of the rotating tube, the stirring tube communicating with the rotating tube, and one-way valves provided at the bottom end of the rotating tube and inside the stirring tube, allowing the egg liquid to enter the stirring tube from the sterilization tank and exit from the bottom of the rotating tube. The rotating tube passes through the cover plate of the sterilization tank and is rotatably connected to the cover plate. A piston cylinder is connected to the top end of the rotating tube, and the piston cylinder is rotatably mounted on the top cover of the water bath tank.

The defoaming mechanism can continuously defoam the top of the egg liquid during stirring, thereby reducing foam on the surface of the egg liquid and improving the storage effect of the egg liquid. At the same time, the defoaming plate structure, together with the descum removal plate, can remove protein residues on the surface of the egg liquid, further improving the quality of the egg liquid.

[0005] Existing egg liquid sterilization boxes use a single stirring method to promote the heating and sterilization of egg liquid during sterilization. However, a large number of bubbles are generated during the stirring process. Existing egg liquid sterilization boxes are not convenient for defoaming the egg liquid, which affects the subsequent processing efficiency and quality, and has certain defects in use. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an egg liquid sterilization box with a defoaming mechanism to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that current egg liquid sterilization boxes on the market promote the heating and sterilization of egg liquid through a single stirring method during sterilization. However, a large number of bubbles are generated during the stirring process, and existing egg liquid sterilization boxes are inconvenient to defoam the egg liquid, thus affecting the subsequent processing efficiency and quality.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an egg liquid sterilization box with a defoaming mechanism, comprising a vertically placed tank, an inner tank fixedly disposed on the inner side of the tank, a motor fixedly mounted on the top of the tank lid, and a stirring shaft rotatably mounted through the lid and drivenly connected to the output end of the motor, while a stirring blade is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the stirring shaft; a rotating seat is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the inner tank, and the stirring shaft and the rotating seat are drivenly connected by a transmission assembly, and a mounting seat is fixedly mounted on the upper inner wall of the inner tank, while a lifting seat is elastically and vertically mounted on the mounting seat, and an elastic rubber component for assisting stirring and adjusting pressure is fixedly connected between the rotating seat and the lifting seat, a defoaming component for achieving defoaming is mounted on the lifting seat, and an air cylinder is also fixedly mounted on the inner side of the inner tank, and an air supply assembly for assisting in adjusting air pressure is disposed between the air cylinder and the stirring shaft.

[0008] Preferably, the transmission assembly includes a rack fixedly installed on the outside of the stirring shaft, and the rack is arranged in an arc shape. A gear is also rotatably installed on the inside of the inner tank. The rack meshes with the gear during the rotation of the stirring shaft. Meanwhile, tooth blocks are evenly arranged on the inside of the rotating seat, and the gear meshes with the tooth blocks on the rotating seat. During the rotation of the rack, the rotating seat is driven to reciprocate through the gear.

[0009] Preferably, the rotating seat twists the elastic rubber component during rotation, and the elastic rubber component is cylindrical. During the twisting process, the elastic rubber component pulls the lifting seat to slide downward inside the mounting seat, and a spring is fixedly connected between the mounting seat and the lifting seat.

[0010] Preferably, the inner tank and the rotating seat are sealed together, the mounting seat and the lifting seat are sealed together, and the elastic rubber part compresses the gas inside the inner tank when it twists.

[0011] Preferably, the defoaming component includes a metal filter sheet fixedly installed on the lifting seat, and a striking element is fixedly installed above the metal filter sheet by a bracket. During the process of the lifting seat moving the metal filter sheet downward, the striking element strikes the liquid surface to cause waves to be generated on the liquid surface.

[0012] Preferably, the metal filter is arranged in a ring structure, and needles are uniformly fixed on the metal filter. During the upward movement of the metal filter, the needles puncture the air bubbles, and the upward movement of the metal filter filters the floating air bubbles.

[0013] Preferably, a striking element is uniformly and elastically rotatably mounted on the mounting base, and magnetic blocks are fixedly mounted on both the striking element and the lifting base. The magnetic poles of the magnetic blocks on the striking element and the lifting base are opposite. At the same time, the striking element rotates and strikes the metal filter under the magnetic force of the magnetic blocks, and the metal filter vibrates after being struck to achieve defoaming.

[0014] Preferably, the gas delivery assembly includes a pull rod fixedly installed on the lower surface of the lifting seat, and a piston plate with an annular structure is fixedly installed at the lower end of the pull rod. The piston plate is located inside the gas cylinder, and the lifting seat drives the piston plate to adjust its height inside the gas cylinder through the pull rod.

[0015] Preferably, the lower end of the air cylinder is fixedly connected to an air supply pipe, and the center of the stirring shaft is provided with a through hole structure. The upper end of the air supply pipe is rotatably connected to the upper end of the stirring shaft, and the air supply pipe and the through hole structure of the stirring shaft are sealed and connected. The air supply pipe regulates the air pressure inside the through hole structure of the stirring shaft.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the egg liquid sterilization box with defoaming mechanism can promote the flow and heating of egg liquid, and can use air pressure and mechanical action to defoam the egg liquid in multiple ways during the sterilization process, effectively improving the subsequent processing efficiency of egg liquid, as detailed below;

[0017] 1. It is equipped with a stirring shaft, a rotating seat, a lifting seat, and elastic rubber parts. By controlling the stirring shaft to rotate slowly, it can drive the rotating seat to rotate synchronously through the transmission of gears. This allows the rotating seat to twist the elastic rubber parts, causing them to wrinkle. At this time, the diameter of the elastic rubber parts will decrease. Since the elastic rubber parts are partially immersed in the egg liquid, it can promote the flow of the egg liquid and improve the heating and sterilization effect of the egg liquid.

[0018] 2. Equipped with elastic rubber parts, metal filter sheets, and striking parts, the rotating seat rotates, causing the elastic rubber parts to twist, which in turn regulates the air pressure in the inner tank. As the elastic rubber parts twist and return to their original position, the air pressure inside the inner tank rises and falls repeatedly, causing the egg liquid bubbles to burst under the pressure. At the same time, the twisting process of the elastic rubber parts drives the lifting seat to rise and fall repeatedly. During this time, the metal filter sheet and needles can filter and puncture the bubbles, while the striking parts can tap and vibrate the metal filter sheet, thereby achieving complete elimination of bubbles.

[0019] 3. It is equipped with an air cylinder, piston plate and air supply pipe. As the lifting seat is adjusted, it will drive the piston plate to slide back and forth inside the air cylinder through the pull rod. This allows the air cylinder to draw gas from the through hole of the stirring shaft through the air supply pipe. This causes the stirring shaft to repeatedly draw in and discharge the egg liquid, further promoting the flow and heating of the egg liquid. At the same time, the air pressure inside the inner tank can be further increased during the drawing and venting process of the air supply pipe, thus achieving auxiliary defoaming.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Example 1: Existing egg liquid sterilization boxes achieve flow heating and sterilization of egg liquid through a single stirring method. This single stirring method results in unsatisfactory flow effects and generates numerous air bubbles. To solve this technical problem, this example discloses the following technical content. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-7 As shown; an egg liquid sterilization box with a defoaming mechanism includes a vertically placed tank 1, an inner tank 2 fixedly installed inside the tank 1, a motor 3 fixedly installed on the top of the lid of the tank 1, and a stirring shaft 4 rotatably installed through the lid and drivenly connected to the output end of the motor 3, while a stirring blade 5 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the stirring shaft 4; a rotating seat 8 is rotatably installed inside the inner tank 2, and the stirring shaft 4 and the rotating seat 8 are drivenly connected by a transmission assembly, and a mounting seat 9 is fixedly installed on the upper inner wall of the inner tank 2, while a lifting seat 10 is elastically lifted and lowered on the mounting seat 9, and an elastic rubber part 12 for assisting stirring and adjusting pressure is fixedly connected between the rotating seat 8 and the lifting seat 10.

[0033] The transmission assembly includes a rack 6 fixedly mounted on the outside of the stirring shaft 4, and the rack 6 is arranged in an arc shape. A gear 7 is also rotatably mounted on the inside of the inner tank 2. The rack 6 meshes with the gear 7 during the rotation of the stirring shaft 4. At the same time, tooth blocks are evenly arranged on the inside of the rotating seat 8, and the gear 7 meshes with the tooth blocks on the rotating seat 8. During the rotation of the rack 6, the rotating seat 8 is driven to reciprocate through the gear 7. During the rotation of the rotating seat 8, the elastic rubber part 12 is twisted. The elastic rubber part 12 is cylindrical. During the twisting of the elastic rubber part 12, the lifting seat 10 is pulled down and slid on the inside of the mounting seat 9. At the same time, a spring 11 is fixedly connected between the mounting seat 9 and the lifting seat 10. The inner tank 2 and the rotating seat 8 are sealed together. The mounting seat 9 and the lifting seat 10 are sealed together. When the elastic rubber part 12 twists, it compresses the gas inside the inner tank 2.

[0034] Egg liquid is injected into the inner tank 2, ensuring that the egg liquid submerges the elastic rubber part 12 and the liquid level is below the striking part 14. The inner tank 2 is then sealed. Simultaneously, hot water between the tank box 1 and the inner tank 2 is used to heat and sterilize the egg liquid in the inner tank 2. During sterilization, the motor 3 is started, driving the stirring shaft 4 to rotate slowly via a transmission belt. This allows the stirring blades 5 at the lower end of the stirring shaft 4 to slowly agitate the egg liquid. As the stirring shaft 4 rotates, it drives the rack 6 and gear 7 to mesh. The gear 7 meshes with the toothed blocks on the rotating seat 8, driving the rotating seat 8 to rotate. When the rotating seat 8 rotates, it twists the elastic rubber part 12 connected to the outside. When the elastic rubber part 12 twists, its diameter decreases, thereby causing the egg liquid to flow and improving the uniform heating effect of the egg liquid. When the rack 6 disengages from the gear 7, the rotating seat 8 will rotate and reset under the elastic force of the spring 11 and the elastic rubber part 12.

[0035] Example 2: The technical content disclosed in this example is a further improvement based on Example 1. Existing egg liquid sterilization boxes are inconvenient to automatically eliminate air bubbles generated during heating sterilization, thus affecting subsequent processing efficiency. To further solve this technical problem, this example discloses the following technical content: Figures 3-10As shown; a defoaming component for defoaming is installed on the lifting seat 10. An air cylinder 19 is also fixedly installed on the inner side of the inner tank 2, and an air supply component for assisting in adjusting the air pressure is provided between the air cylinder 19 and the stirring shaft 4. The defoaming component includes a metal filter 13 fixedly installed on the lifting seat 10, and a striking element 14 is fixedly installed above the metal filter 13 by a bracket. When the lifting seat 10 moves the metal filter 13 downward, the striking element 14 strikes the liquid surface to cause waves. The metal filter 13 is arranged in a ring structure, and needles 15 are evenly fixedly arranged on the metal filter 13. When the metal filter 13 moves upward, the needles 15 puncture the bubbles. At the same time, the metal filter 13 filters the floating bubbles during its upward movement. A knocking element 16 is evenly and elastically rotatably installed on the mounting base 9, and magnetic blocks 17 are fixedly installed on both the knocking element 16 and the lifting seat 10. Furthermore, the magnetic poles of the opposing surfaces of the magnetic blocks 17 on the striking element 16 and the lifting seat 10 are opposite. Simultaneously, the striking element 16 rotates and strikes the metal filter 13 under the magnetic force of the magnetic block 17. Moreover, the metal filter 13 vibrates after being struck, thus defoaming. The gas supply assembly includes a pull rod 18 fixedly installed on the lower surface of the lifting seat 10. A piston plate 20 with an annular structure is fixedly installed at the lower end of the pull rod 18. The piston plate 20 is located inside the air cylinder 19. At the same time, the lifting seat 10 drives the piston plate 20 to adjust its height inside the air cylinder 19 through the pull rod 18. The lower end of the air cylinder 19 is fixedly connected to the gas supply pipe 21. A through hole structure is opened in the center of the stirring shaft 4. The upper end of the gas supply pipe 21 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the stirring shaft 4. At the same time, the gas supply pipe 21 and the through hole structure of the stirring shaft 4 are sealed and connected. The gas supply pipe 21 regulates the air pressure inside the through hole structure of the stirring shaft 4.

[0036] When the rotating seat 8 twists the elastic rubber part 12, it drives the lifting seat 10 to elastically lift and lower on the mounting seat 9. As the lifting seat 10 moves downward, it drives the striking part 14 to move downward and strike the surface of the egg liquid, thereby creating waves on the surface of the egg liquid, which in turn pushes the generated bubbles to drift towards the inner wall of the inner can 2. When the lifting seat 10 moves upward, the metal filter 13 filters the bubbles in the egg liquid, and the piercing needle 15 can puncture the bubbles. As the lifting seat 10 moves upward, the striking part 16 on the mounting seat 9 will elastically rotate under the magnetic force of the magnetic block 17 and strike the metal filter 13, thereby... Vibration further promotes the elimination of bubbles. As the elastic rubber part 12 twists and recovers, the air pressure in the inner tank 2 can be adjusted up and down. This pressure change promotes bubble rupture. At the same time, as the lifting seat 10 is adjusted up and down, it pulls the piston plate 20 to move up and down inside the air cylinder 19 through the pull rod 18. This allows the air cylinder 19 to repeatedly draw in and discharge the gas inside the through hole of the stirring shaft 4 through the air pipe 21. This allows the through hole inside the stirring shaft 4 to draw in and discharge egg liquid under the action of air pressure, further improving the fluidity of the egg liquid. At the same time, the pressure change can further assist in defoaming.
