[0002] The processing of fruit materials refers to the process of converting fresh fruits into various fruit products or fruit raw materials through a series of processing steps. During the processing, some fruit products need to be heat treated to change their texture, taste or extend the shelf life. After heat treatment, the fruit materials usually need to be cooled. At present, tubular coolers can be used to cool them. Tubular coolers are welded by a series of pipes, which reduce the temperature of materials or products through internal cooling media.

[0003] With regard to the above-mentioned related technologies, when installing or disassembling the tubular cooler, it is difficult to disassemble and install because its pipes are welded, which seriously affects the work efficiency of the workers. Utility Model Content
