Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wine-making production equipment, in particular to a device capable of automatically controlling the water-adding and heating of a pulp water tank in a wine-making production process. Background Art

[0002] During the winemaking process, hot water is added to the brewed mash after cooking. The temperature of the hot water should not be lower than 90°C, otherwise it will affect the acid discharge of the mash, thus affecting the quality of the original wine.

[0003] The water addition and steam valves of the raw pulp water tank are manually controlled. The pulp water tank is opaque and the water condition cannot be observed from the outside. After opening the valve to add water, water overflows and the water addition valve is closed. When steam is introduced for heating, the water boils (100°C), hot water overflows, and the steam valve is closed. The pulp water tank cannot automatically start and stop the water addition and heating devices in time, which can easily lead to the failure to add appropriate hot water to the mash in time, affecting the acid discharge of the mash. Long-term water overflow will cause a waste of water resources. Long-term hot water overflow will cause the outer wall temperature of the pulp water tank to be too high, posing a safety hazard, and causing a waste of steam, which invisibly increases production costs.

[0020] The present invention will be further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0021] The utility model provides an automatic control device for heating water in a slurry tank during a wine production process. Figure 1As shown, before heating the slurry, the brewer first sets the water level and temperature required for this production in the setting boxes of "Set water level" and "Set temperature" on the touch screen 11. Switch the "manual / automatic switch" on the control distribution box 8 to the "automatic" position, press the virtual "automatic start and stop" button on the touch screen 11 or press the physical "automatic start and stop" button on the control distribution box 8, and the slurry tank starts automatic heating. The communication output end of the touch screen 11 is connected to the communication input end of the control module inside the control distribution box 8. The touch screen 11 sends the control signal to the control module in the control distribution box 8, and the micro relay KA1 inside the control module is turned on, opening the water inlet solenoid valve 4 on the water inlet pipe 3, and the well water enters the tank, and the water level gradually rises. The liquid level sensor 6 is installed on the upper right side of the tank body 9, and the output end of the liquid level sensor 6 is connected to the analog input end A0 of the control module in the control distribution box 8. Through the control module conversion, the water level signal is sent to the touch screen 11, and the touch screen 11 displays the water level height in the "real-time water level" display box on the screen. The water level gradually rises. When the real-time water level is greater than or equal to 30 cm and the real-time temperature is less than the set temperature, the touch screen 11 sends a control signal to the control module in the control distribution box 8, and the micro relay KA2 inside the control module is turned on, and the steam solenoid valve 2 on the steam pipe 1 is opened, and steam is introduced into the tank to start heating. The temperature sensor 5 is installed in the middle of the left side of the tank body 9, and the output end of the temperature sensor 5 is connected to the analog input end A1 of the control module in the control distribution box 8. Through the control module conversion, the temperature signal is sent to the touch screen 11, and the touch screen 11 displays the temperature in the "real-time temperature" display box on the screen. As the water level continues to rise, when the real-time water level is greater than or equal to the set water level, the touch screen 11 sends an automatic control signal to the control module, the micro relay KA1 inside the control module is disconnected, and the water inlet solenoid valve 4 on the water inlet pipe 3 is closed to stop water inlet. As the temperature continues to rise, when the real-time temperature is greater than or equal to the set temperature, the touch screen sends an automatic control signal to the control module, the micro relay KA2 inside the control module is disconnected, and the steam solenoid valve 2 on the steam pipe 1 is closed to stop steam inlet. The whole automatic process ends, and the hot water is in a standby state. When it is needed, the brewer opens the manual valve 7 on the water outlet pipe 10 to start water discharge. After the hot water is used up, the above operation steps can be repeated to continue heating.

[0022] In this embodiment, the manual control function provided by the touch screen 11 and the control distribution box 8 serves as a supplement to the automatic control. At the same time, when the liquid level sensor 6 or the temperature sensor 5 fails and the automatic operation cannot be started, the manual control function can be used as an emergency to ensure normal production.

[0023] The utility model can realize automatic start and stop of water adding and heating device when in use. By inputting the water level and temperature of the slurry water tank for setting, water is automatically added when the water level is lower than the lower limit of the set value, and heating is automatically performed when the temperature is lower than the lower limit of the set value. When the set target is reached, water adding and heating are stopped, thus avoiding the waste of water and steam, saving costs and eliminating safety hazards.

[0024] The technical means disclosed in the scheme of the present invention are not limited to the technical means disclosed in the above-mentioned implementation mode, but also include technical schemes composed of any combination of the above-mentioned technical features. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications are also regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
