Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of concentration devices, in particular to a double-effect concentrator with a foam breaking mechanism. Background Art

[0002] The working principle of the double-effect concentrator is based on the evaporation principle. The heat energy is recovered and reused through a two-stage evaporation structure. The secondary steam generated by the first-effect evaporation concentration is used as a heat source again and introduced into the second-effect concentrator, thereby realizing the secondary utilization of heat energy and improving energy utilization efficiency. This design allows the solution to evaporate at a lower temperature and is suitable for processing heat-sensitive materials such as traditional Chinese medicine and food.

[0003] For example, a concentration device with publication number CN207950698U specifically relates to a double-effect concentrator with a foam breaking device, which solves the problem that when a double-effect concentrator is used for concentration in the prior art, a large amount of foam is easily generated during the concentration process due to the complex composition and diverse properties of the liquid medicine, and after the foam is formed, it is very easy to be extracted by the vacuum system along with the secondary steam generated, resulting in material leakage and other problems. The utility model automatically eliminates foam by installing a foam breaking device at the first-effect upper connecting flange between the first-effect heater and the first-effect boiler and at the second-effect upper connecting flange between the second-effect heater and the second-effect boiler, thereby avoiding material leakage, stabilizing the heating temperature and vacuum degree in the production process, improving production efficiency, ensuring product quality, and effectively reducing energy consumption such as water, electricity, and steam.

[0004] However, based on the working principle proposed in the above patent, the applicant believes that although the above device can reduce the impact of foam on energy consumption to a certain extent, in actual use, the defoaming efficiency of the above device is relatively poor and it will still cause a certain degree of resource loss when used.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a double-effect concentrator with a foam breaking mechanism is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is that the prior art has the disadvantage of poor defoaming efficiency, for which we propose a double-effect concentrator with a foam breaking mechanism.

[0012] Preferably, the other end of the second air transmission pipe is fixedly connected to a liquefaction cylinder, a water storage tank is fixedly installed at the bottom of the liquefaction cylinder, and a water outlet pipe is fixedly installed on one side of the water storage tank.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
