DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0024] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , an embodiment provided by the present utility model:

[0026] A multi-effect concentration device for beverage processing, comprising:

[0027] A tank body, including an extraction tank 1. The surface of the extraction tank 1 is connected by a pipeline to a heater 11, which is used to heat gas to turn it into steam and fill it into the extraction tank 1 for use. The surface of the extraction tank 1 is connected by a pipeline to a liquid receiving tank 12, which is used for storing condensed water. The surface of the liquid receiving tank 12 is fixedly connected to a condenser 13, which is used to condense secondary steam. The surface of the extraction tank 1 is provided with a feed pipeline 14, which conveys beverage raw materials into the extraction tank 1. The surface of the feed pipeline 14 is fixedly connected to a flange 15, making it convenient to connect the feed pipeline 14 and the extraction tank 1 together;

[0028] A limiting mechanism, including a plugging pipeline 2. The plugging pipeline 2 is fixedly connected to the surface of the heater 11 and is used to convey the steam in the heater 11 out. The surface of the plugging pipeline 2 is fixedly connected to a rubber sleeve 21. The rubber sleeve 21 made of rubber enables the plugging pipeline 2 to be more tightly connected to the connecting pipeline 24, preventing steam from overflowing. The surface of the plugging pipeline 2 is fixedly connected to a first fixing plate 22, which is used to be fixed to a second fixing plate 25 by screwing on a limiting bolt 23 in a threaded manner, thereby restricting the connection between the plugging pipeline 2 and the connecting pipeline 24. The surface of the first fixing plate 22 is screwed with a limiting bolt 23, which is used to tighten the first fixing plate 22 and the second fixing plate 25 to fix the plugging pipeline 2 and the connecting pipeline 24. The surface of the plugging pipeline 2 is inserted and connected to a connecting pipeline 24, which is used to connect with the plugging pipeline 2 so that steam can flow into the extraction tank 1 for use. The surface of the connecting pipeline 24 is fixedly connected to a second fixing plate 25, which is used to connect the first fixing plate 22 through the limiting bolt 23, restricting and fixing the positions of the plugging pipeline 2 and the connecting pipeline 24. The surface of the limiting bolt 23 is screwed with a limiting nut 26, which is used to sleeve the limiting bolt 23 to prevent the limiting bolt 23 from slipping off the surfaces of the first fixing plate 22 and the second fixing plate 25;

[0029] A fixing mechanism, including a first clamp 3. The first clamp 3 acts on the surface of the flange 15 and is used to fix the feed pipeline 14 and the extraction tank 1. The surface of the first clamp 3 is provided with a placement groove 31, which is used to place the flange 15 inside for easy fixing. A sealing gasket 32 is fixedly connected inside the placement groove 31, which is used to seal and fix the connected extraction tank 1 and the feed pipeline 14. The surface of the first clamp 3 is screwed with a fixing bolt 33, which is used to connect the first clamp 3 and a second clamp 35 and fix the two together. The surface of the fixing bolt 33 is screwed with a fixing nut 34, which is used to limit the position of the fixing bolt 33 and prevent it from falling off the surfaces of the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35. The surface of the fixing bolt 33 is screwed with a second clamp 35, which is used to cooperate with the first clamp 3 to tightly connect the extraction tank 1 and the feed pipeline 14 together.

[0030] Furthermore, the connecting pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the surface of the extraction tank 1 and is used to connect the insertion pipe 2, so as to convey the steam inside the heater 11 into the extraction tank 1. The diameter of the connecting pipe 24 is larger than that of the insertion pipe 2, which is convenient for inserting the insertion pipe 2 into the connecting pipe 24, enabling the two to be tightly connected through the rubber sleeve 21.

[0031] Furthermore, the rubber sleeve 21 is made of rubber and is deformable, which improves the sealing performance at the connection between the insertion pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 24. The connecting pipe 24 is connected to the surface of the insertion pipe 2 by abutting through the rubber sleeve 21. The insertion pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 24 are inserted and connected. The diameter of the rubber sleeve 21 is larger than the diameter of the pipe orifice of the connecting pipe 24, causing the rubber sleeve 21 at the connection to be extruded and deformed, greatly improving the sealing performance at the connection between the insertion pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 24 and preventing steam from leaking out.

[0032] Furthermore, the limit bolt 23 is threadedly sleeved on the surface of the second fixing plate 25. After the insertion pipe 2 is inserted into the connecting pipe 24, the limit bolt 23 is screwed into the first fixing plate 22 and the second fixing plate 25 to connect the two. The limit bolt 23 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first fixing plate 22 through the limit nut 26. After the limit bolt 23 is fully tightened, it is close to the surface of the first fixing plate 22, and then the limit nut 26 is tightened. The limit nut 26 is fixedly connected to the surface of the second fixing plate 25 through the limit bolt 23. After the limit nut 26 is tightened, it will be close to the surface of the second fixing plate 25, thereby completely restricting the connection between the insertion pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 24 and completing the fixation of the two.

[0033] Furthermore, the flange 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the extraction tank 1. Flanges 15 are connected to the contact ends of the extraction tank 1 and the feed pipe 14, which is convenient for tightly connecting the two. The flange 15 on the surface of the feed pipe 14 is connected to the flange 15 on the surface of the extraction tank 1 by abutting through the first clamp 3. After the flange 15 on the surface of the extraction tank 1 and the flange 15 on the surface of the feed pipe 14 are fitted together, they are then sleeved with the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35, and then the two are tightly connected together.

[0034] Furthermore, the diameter of the placement groove 31 is larger than that of the flange 15, so that the flange 15 can be completely sleeved, avoiding the situation where the gasket 32 cannot completely fit the surface of the flange 15, resulting in insufficient tightness. The width of the gasket 32 is larger than the width of the flange 15, which can completely wrap the two flanges 15 and improve the tightness.

[0035] Further, the first clamp 3 is fixedly connected to the surface of the second clamp 35 through the fixing bolt 33. The first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35 are completely sleeved on the surface of the flange 15, and then the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35 are connected by the fixing bolt 33. Tighten the fixing bolt 33 so that the fixing bolt 33 is close to the surface of the first clamp 3. The fixing nut 34 is fixedly connected to the surface of the second clamp 35 through the fixing bolt 33. Tighten the fixing nut 34 so that the fixing bolt 33 is completely fixed, and the fixing nut 34 fits on the surface of the second clamp 35. The first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35 are firmly fixed together, so that the feed pipe 14 and the extraction tank 1 are fixedly connected.

[0036] Working principle: When using the multi-effect concentration device for beverage processing, first insert the plugging pipe 2 into the connecting pipe 24, so that the rubber sleeve 21 contacts the inside of the connecting pipe 24 as much as possible. After determining the connection between the two, screw the limit bolt 23 into the first fixing plate 22, and then screw it into the second fixing plate 25 to connect and fix the first fixing plate 22 and the second fixing plate 25. Until the nut of the limit bolt 23 is close to the surface of the first fixing plate 22, then sleeve the limit nut 26 onto the limit bolt 23 and tighten it until the limit nut 26 is close to the surface of the second fixing plate 25 to complete the connection between the heater 11 and the extraction tank 1. Make the flange 15 of the flow pipe of the feed pipe 14 contact the flange 15 on the surface of the extraction tank 1, and then sleeve the two with the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35, and then tighten the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35 with the fixing bolt 33 so that the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35 are closely fitted. Then sleeve the fixing nut 34 onto the fixing bolt 33 and tighten it so that the fixing nut 34 is close to the surface of the second clamp 35 to completely fix the connection between the extraction tank 1 and the feed pipe 14. If the feed pipe 14 is damaged, the fixing nut 34 and the fixing nut 34 can be unscrewed, and the first clamp 3 and the second clamp 35 can be removed to separate the extraction tank 1 and the feed pipe 14. If the heater 11 is damaged, the limit bolt 23 and the limit nut 26 can be unscrewed, and the plugging pipe 2 can be pulled out of the connecting pipe 24 to separate the heater 11 and the extraction tank 1, and then replace it.

[0037] For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, from any point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description. Therefore, all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be included in the present invention. Any reference signs in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claimed rights.
