[0023] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Example
[0024] Now combined Figure 1-6 A steam heater for a tea bar machine is described, comprising a steam duct 1, a circulating water jacket 2 and a guide pipe 3; the circulating water jacket 2 is sleeved on the outer wall of the steam duct 1; the upper end of the circulating water jacket 2 is sealed with the outer wall of the steam duct 1; the guide pipe 3 is sleeved on the outer wall of the circulating water jacket 2; the upper end of the guide pipe 3 is sealed with the outer wall of the circulating water jacket 2; the upper end of the steam duct 1 is provided with a steam inlet 11; the upper end of the circulating water jacket 2 is provided with a circulating water inlet 21; the upper end of the guide pipe 3 is provided with two air pressure balance holes 31.
[0025] The outer diameter of the steam conduit 1 is smaller than the inner diameter of the circulating water jacket 2 ; the outer diameter of the circulating water jacket 2 is smaller than the inner diameter of the flow guide pipe 3 .
[0026] The steam conduit 1 , the circulating water jacket 2 and the flow guide pipe 3 are coaxially arranged.
[0027] The lower ports of the steam conduit 1 and the circulating water jacket 2 are both located inside the flow guide pipe 3 .
[0028] The distance from the lower end of the steam conduit 1 to the lower end of the draft tube 3 is smaller than the distance from the lower end of the circulating water jacket 2 to the lower end of the draft tube 3. That is, the lower end of the steam conduit 1 is closer to the lower end of the draft tube 3 than the lower end of the circulating water jacket 2.
[0029] The difference between the inner diameter of the circulating water jacket 2 and the outer diameter of the steam conduit 1 is 20 mm; the difference between the inner diameter of the flow guide pipe 3 and the outer diameter of the circulating water jacket 2 is 20 mm.
[0030] The air pressure balance hole 31 is arranged on the top wall of the upper end of the flow guide pipe 3 ; the air pressure balance hole 31 communicates with the gap between the inner wall of the flow guide pipe 3 and the outer wall of the circulating water jacket 2 .
[0031] like Figure 6The application example of the steam heater for a tea bar machine is shown. The lower end of the flow guide tube 3 is immersed in the water to be heated, and the lower end of the steam conduit 1 is kept greater than 10 mm from the liquid surface; high-temperature steam is introduced into the steam inlet 11 of the steam conduit 1, which can be achieved by connecting the steam inlet 11 with the output end of the high-temperature steam generator; circulating water is introduced into the circulating water inlet 21 of the circulating water jacket 2, which can be achieved by pumping the water to be heated into the circulating water inlet 21 by a water pump. The high-temperature steam and the circulating water are mixed and heated at the lower end of the flow guide tube 3 and impact the liquid surface to be heated to heat it. Due to the setting of the air pressure balance hole 31, the heating process will not produce explosion noise. If the air pressure balance hole 31 is blocked, explosion noise will still be produced.

[0034] Experimental Group Environmental noise Working noise Block the air pressure balance hole group 58 dB 75 dB Open air pressure balance hole group 58 dB 60 dB
