Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gelatin production, and specifically, to an energy-saving pot for gelatin evaporation and concentration. Background Technique

[0002] Gelatin belongs to a macromolecular hydrophilic colloid and is a low-calorie health food with relatively high nutritional value. It can be used to make candy additives, frozen food additives, etc. The existing gelatin production process includes: pickling → deacidification and water washing → neutralization → water washing → enzymatic extraction of gelatin → refining treatment → concentration → evaporation → sterilization → extrusion and drying of gelatin. The refined gelatin solution is concentrated, then concentrated by a multi-effect evaporator, sterilized, and then extruded and dried to obtain the gelatin finished product.

[0003] In the existing publicly disclosed technology, the application number is: CN202122956976.4, an evaporation and concentration device for gelatin production. This evaporation and concentration device for gelatin production includes a support frame, a stirring mechanism, and a steam assembly. A mounting plate is fixedly installed at the top of the support frame. The stirring mechanism is arranged on the top of the mounting plate. The steam assembly includes a heating mechanism and a rotating mechanism. The heating mechanism is arranged on the top of the mounting plate, and the rotating mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the iron cylinder. In this evaporation and concentration device for gelatin production, through the coordinated use of a cylinder, a telescopic rod, a fixing plate, a second motor, and a rotating rod, when the evaporation and concentration reach an appropriate level, the stirring blades can stir it to prevent the phenomenon of gelatin bottoming. And the turntable at the bottom can drive the bearing cylinder to rotate, making the evaporation of gelatin in the bearing cylinder more uniform, saving the time and energy of workers and making the practicality of this device higher.

[0004] However, the above patent still has certain disadvantages when in use: it uses the steam assembly to evaporate and concentrate the gelatin inside, but the electric heating rods and heating tubes for heat conduction transfer the heat to the bearing cylinder, and then the heat is transferred from the outside to the inside through the bearing cylinder. This results in the gelatin at the central position having a worse heat reception effect compared to the gelatin on the outside, which is not conducive to more rapid and uniform heating and evaporation operations. The overall evaporation and concentration effect is not very good. And the hot air generated during evaporation is directly discharged outward, which causes waste of some heat and is not conducive to more energy-saving and environmental protection use. The overall use effect is not very good.

[0005] Regarding the problems in the related technology, no effective solution has been proposed yet. Content of the Utility Model
