[0032] 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.
[0033] Example 1:
[0034] Combination Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides a cookware with a cleaning function for sugar alcohol processing, including a base 100 for sugar alcohol processing and a pot body 101. A bracket 103 is hinged to the base 100, and a sealing cover 102 for sealing the pot body 101 is installed on the bracket 103. A cleaning mechanism 200 for cleaning the inside of the pot body 101 is provided at the bottom of the sealing cover 102. An outlet mechanism 300 for extracting fluid from the pot body 101 is also installed on the sealing cover 102. With the cleaning mechanism 200, the automatic pot cleaning can complete the cleaning task quickly and efficiently. Compared with manual cleaning, it can greatly save time and labor costs. Moreover, the use of professional cleaning programs can reduce the use of water and cleaning agents, reduce environmental pollution, and save energy. With the outlet mechanism 300, the material inside the pot can be quickly and effectively transported out without opening the sealing cover 102, saving time and labor costs. When processing materials in high temperature or high pressure environments, opening the sealing cover 102 will cause the release of high temperature gas and pressure, which may cause risks such as personal injury and pollution of the working environment. However, by not opening the sealing cover 102, the system can remain closed, reducing operational risks.
[0035] The cleaning mechanism 200 includes an annular tube 201 fixed to the sealing cover 102. A nozzle 203 for spraying water is fixed to the bottom of the annular tube 201. The sealing cover 102 is provided with a transmission component for driving the nozzle 203 to swing. The annular tube 201 sprays water from the nozzle 203 to clean the inside of the pot 101. The transmission component can drive the nozzle 203 to swing, so that water is evenly sprayed into the pot through the annular tube 201, which can effectively clean the bottom and inner wall of the pot, making the bottom and inner wall of the pot cleaner and more hygienic. The swinging of the nozzle 203 helps to increase the cleaning range and further improve the cleaning quality.
[0036] Specifically, a water storage tank 104 is placed on one side of the base 100. A connecting pipe 202 for conveying water is fixed between the water storage tank 104 and the annular pipe 201. The water storage tank 104 has a built-in pump body, which is connected to the pipe. Water can be injected into the annular pipe 201 and then cleaned inside the pot body 101 through the nozzle 203.
[0037] Furthermore, a stirrer 107 for stirring raw materials is fixedly attached to the sealing cap 102, which can automatically stir the raw materials without the need for manual stirring, saving time and effort.
[0038] An electronic scale 105 and a hot air blower 106 are fixedly mounted on one side of the base 100. The electronic scale 105 can weigh the raw materials, which helps to improve the accuracy of the raw material ratio. The hot air blower 106 can dry the inside of the pot 101 with hot air.
[0039] As can be seen from the embodiment, the annular pipe 201 sprays water from the nozzle 203 to clean the inside of the pot body 101, and the transmission component can drive the nozzle 203 to swing. Water is evenly sprayed into the pot through the annular pipe 201, which can effectively clean the bottom and inner wall of the pot, making the bottom and inner wall of the pot cleaner and more hygienic. The swinging of the nozzle 203 helps to increase the cleaning range and further improve the cleaning quality.
[0040] Example 2:
[0041] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the transmission assembly includes a connecting frame 205 slidably installed inside the sealing cover 102, a transmission sleeve 204 fitted on the nozzle 203, and a transmission strip 206 hinged between the connecting frame 205 and the adjacent transmission sleeve 204. The sealing cover 102 is provided with a driving component for driving the connecting frame 205 to move up and down. The driving component can drive the connecting frame 205 to move up and down. When the connecting frame 205 moves up and down, it pulls and pushes the transmission sleeve 204 to make it swing back and forth. The nozzle 203 swings with the transmission sleeve 204, thereby realizing a large-area spraying and cleaning operation, and the spraying point can be changed, which is beneficial for rinsing impurities in the corners.
[0042] Specifically, the driving component includes a motor 207 fixedly installed inside the sealing cover 102, a screw 208 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 207, a slide rod 209 fixedly connected inside the sealing cover 102, and connecting blocks 210 fixedly connected to both sides of the connecting frame 205. The two connecting blocks 210 are threadedly connected to the screw 208 and the slide rod 209 respectively. When the motor 207 starts, it drives the screw 208 to rotate. The connecting frame 205 moves up and down with the connecting blocks 210 on the screw 208. By using the drive of the screw 208, the various parts of the pot body 101 can be rinsed at a uniform speed, making the cleaning more thorough.
[0043] As can be seen from the embodiment, when the motor 207 starts, it drives the screw 208 to rotate. The connecting frame 205 moves up and down with the connecting block 210 on the screw 208. By using the drive of the screw 208, the various positions of the pot body 101 can be washed at a uniform speed, thereby realizing a large-scale spray cleaning operation. Moreover, the spray point can be changed, which is beneficial for washing away impurities in the corners.
[0044] Example 3:
[0045] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the export mechanism 300 includes a storage groove 309 opened at the bottom of the sealing cover 102. A return pipe 301 for extracting finished sugar art products is movably installed in the storage groove 309. A discharge pipe connected to the return pipe 301 is fixedly connected to it. The sealing cover 102 is provided with a folding assembly for storing the return pipe 301. The return pipe 301 can be folded into the sealing cover 102. When needed, the return pipe 301 is flipped towards the bottom wall of the pot body 101, which can extract the finished products from the pot body 101 without opening the sealing cover 102. This keeps the pot clean and hygienic and prevents cross-contamination. It also increases the heat preservation time and reduces heat loss.
[0046] Specifically, the folding assembly includes a connecting shaft 302 rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the storage slot 309, a handle 303 fixedly attached to the connecting shaft 302, the handle 303 being slidably connected to the sealing cover 102, and a positioning element for fixing the return pipe 301 inside the sealing cover 102. The positioning element loosens the return pipe 301, and then, under the action of gravity, the return pipe 301 flips towards the bottom wall of the pot body 101, so that the finished product inside the pot body 101 can be extracted. The structure is simple and easy to use. The return pipe 301 is made of stainless steel.
[0047] Furthermore, a water pump 108 is fixedly connected to the base 100. The output pipe of the water pump 108 is connected to the discharge pipe, which can extract the finished product from the pot body 101 according to actual needs, and can also export the wastewater generated during cleaning. After exporting, clean water is injected. During the flow of clean water, the pipeline being transported can be cleaned.
[0048] As can be seen from the embodiment, the reflux pipe 301 can be folded into the sealing cover 102. When needed, the reflux pipe 301 can be flipped inside the pot body 101 to extract the finished product from the pot body 101 without opening the sealing cover 102. This keeps the pot clean and hygienic and prevents cross-contamination. It also increases the heat preservation time and reduces heat loss.
[0049] Example 4:
[0050] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the positioning component includes a positioning block 304 fixed to the return pipe 301. A slot 306 is provided on the positioning block 304. A spring 307 is fixed to the inner wall of the sealing cover 102. A connecting plate 308 is fixed to the spring 307. A pin 305 that inserts into the slot 306 is fixed to the end of the connecting plate 308. The end of the positioning block 304 is arc-shaped. A transmission block 310 is fixed to one side of the connecting plate 308. A pressure rod 312 is slidably connected to the sealing cover 102. A recess 311 for removing the pin 305 is fixed to the bottom end of the pressure rod 312. The opposite end faces of the recess 311 and the transmission block 310 are both arc-shaped. After the finished product and the water generated during cleaning are extracted from the pot body 101, the lever is turned... The handle 303 rotates the connecting shaft 302, causing the return pipe 301 to flip along with the connecting shaft 302. The positioning block 304 moves with the return pipe 301, and the positioning block 304 contacts the insertion post 305, pushing it to one side. When the slot 306 and the insertion post 305 are on the same plane, the spring 307 pushes the connecting plate 308, causing the insertion post 305 to be inserted into the slot 306, thus fixing the return pipe 301. When it is necessary to loosen the return pipe 301, simply press the pressure rod 312 to lower the recess 311. Then, the recess 311 contacts the transmission block 310, causing it to move outward. The connecting plate 308 moves with the transmission block 310, thus removing the insertion post 305 from the slot 306.
[0051] As can be seen from the above embodiments: First, pour 100 grams of water into the pot and boil it using a heater at high heat. Add 1000 grams of isosorbide syrup and isosorbide. The actual amount should be adjusted according to actual needs. Then, close the sealing lid 102. Then, start the stirrer 107 to stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. When the sugar solution temperature reaches 140°C, adjust to medium heat. When the sugar solution temperature reaches 170°C, the finished product is ready. After processing, when the finished product needs to be removed, press the pressure rod 312 to lower the concave block 311. Then, the concave block 311 contacts the transmission block 310 and moves it outward. The connecting plate 308 moves with the transmission block 310, and then the insert 305 on the connecting plate 308 can be removed from the slot 306. Then, under the action of gravity, the return pipe 301 flips towards the bottom wall of the pot body 101. The water pump 108 starts and discharges the finished product from the pot body 101 through the pipe. The user can then collect it in a container. The equipment will then clean itself automatically. Repeat the above steps to process sugar alcohol.
