[0023] Combined as Figures 1-6 shown, the present technical solution will be further described. An edible oil cooling device includes a base 1, a cooling tank 2 provided on the base 1 for accommodating high-temperature edible oil, and a liquid cooling mechanism 3 provided between the base 1 and the cooling tank 2. The liquid cooling mechanism 3 is in contact with the outer wall of the cooling tank 2. The liquid cooling mechanism 3 includes a first heat exchange sleeve 30 provided on the base 1 and a second heat exchange sleeve 31 provided on the base 1. Refrigerant is provided in both the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31 to reduce the temperature of the high-temperature edible oil in the cooling tank 2.

[0024] The present application provides an edible oil cooling device, which includes a base, a cooling tank provided on the base for accommodating high-temperature edible oil, and a liquid cooling mechanism provided between the base and the cooling tank. The liquid cooling mechanism includes a first heat exchange sleeve and a second heat exchange sleeve both provided on the base. Refrigerant flows in both the first heat exchange sleeve and the second heat exchange sleeve. By bringing the outer wall of the cooling tank into contact with the liquid cooling mechanism, the heat of the high-temperature edible oil in the cooling tank can be transferred to the refrigerant, so as to quickly and uniformly reduce the temperature of the high-temperature edible oil in the cooling tank, avoid high-temperature oxidation of the edible oil during the production process, and has the advantages of high cooling efficiency, effectively ensuring the quality of the edible oil, simple operation steps, energy conservation and environmental protection, and being convenient for popularization and implementation.

[0025] During the implementation of this embodiment, a mounting groove 10 is provided on the base 1, and the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31 can be simultaneously arranged in the mounting groove 10. When the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31 are simultaneously arranged in the mounting groove 10, the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31 jointly enclose a cooling cavity 4, and the cooling tank 2 can be matched and arranged in the cooling cavity 4 to reduce the temperature of the high-temperature edible oil therein.

[0026] During the actual implementation, after the first heat exchange sleeve and the second heat exchange sleeve are enclosed, a clearance hole is provided at the bottom, and the output pipe of the cooling tank can be matched in the clearance hole, and the edible oil after cooling can be discharged from the cooling pipe.

[0027] During the implementation of this embodiment, thermal conductive silicone grease is coated between the inner wall of the cooling cavity 4 and the cooling tank 2 to transfer the heat in the cooling tank 2 to the first heat exchange jacket 30 and the second heat exchange jacket 31 .

[0028] In the actual implementation process, the key step of applying thermal grease between the inner wall of the cooling chamber 4 and the cooling tank 2 effectively realizes efficient heat transfer. As a thermal interface material with excellent performance, thermal grease can form a low thermal resistance heat transfer channel between the cooling tank 2 and the cooling chamber 4, greatly reducing the heat conduction resistance between the thermal contact surfaces of the two. This design cleverly conducts the heat generated inside the cooling tank 2 to the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31 quickly and evenly. This not only significantly improves the efficiency of heat exchange and ensures stable heat dissipation of the equipment during operation, but also effectively avoids the occurrence of local overheating, thereby extending the service life of the equipment and improving the overall performance and reliability of the system. The introduction of this technical treatment is like opening a high-speed conduction channel, quickly releasing the heat inside the equipment to the outside world, making the entire system run more efficiently and stably, demonstrating its substantial technical innovation and significant advantages.

[0029] During the implementation of this embodiment, a limiting assembly 5 is provided between the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the mounting groove 10 . When the first heat exchange sleeve 30 is matched and arranged on the mounting groove 10 , the limiting assembly 5 is used to limit the first heat exchange sleeve 30 from rotating relative to the mounting groove 10 .

[0030] During the implementation of this embodiment, the limiting assembly 5 includes a limiting protrusion 50 provided at the bottom of the first heat exchange sleeve 30, and a limiting groove 51 provided on the mounting groove 10 at a position corresponding to the limiting protrusion 50. When the first heat exchange sleeve 30 is matched and provided on the mounting groove 10, the limiting protrusion 50 can be matched and extended into the limiting groove 51 to limit the rotation of the first heat exchange sleeve 30 relative to the mounting groove 10.

[0031] In the actual implementation process, by setting the limit component, when the liquid cooling mechanism is disposed on the base, the liquid cooling mechanism can be effectively prevented from shaking relative to the base, thereby improving the installation stability.

[0032] During the implementation of this embodiment, a refrigerant inlet 300 and a refrigerant outlet 301 are provided on the first heat exchange sleeve 30. The height of the refrigerant inlet 300 relative to the bottom of the cooling tank 2 is greater than the height of the refrigerant outlet 301 relative to the bottom of the cooling tank 2. The refrigerant can flow into the first heat exchange sleeve 30 from the refrigerant inlet 300 and flow out from the refrigerant outlet 301.

[0033] During the implementation of this embodiment, the liquid cooling mechanism 3 further includes a fixing hoop 6. When the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31 are matched and disposed on the installation groove 10, the fixing hoop 6 can be disposed on the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31, so that the first heat exchange sleeve 30 and the second heat exchange sleeve 31 enclose the cooling cavity 4.

[0034] During the implementation of this embodiment, a stirring component 7 is further provided on the cooling tank 2, and the stirring component 7 is used for stirring the high-temperature cooking oil in the cooling tank 2.

[0035] During the implementation of this embodiment, the stirring component 7 includes a driving member 70, a stirring rod 71 disposed on the output end of the driving member 70, and stirring blades 72 disposed on the stirring rod 71. The driving member 70 is used to drive the stirring rod 71 to rotate relative to the cooling tank 2 to stir the high-temperature cooking oil in the cooling tank 2.

[0036] In the actual implementation process, a temperature control system is further provided in the cooling tank. The temperature control system includes a temperature sensor disposed in the cooling tank, and a condenser disposed at the refrigerant inlet and the refrigerant outlet. The condenser is used to convert the gaseous refrigerant output from the refrigerant outlet into a liquid state. The temperature sensor is signal-connected to the condenser. When the temperature value sensed by the temperature sensor exceeds the preset value, a compressor on the condenser condenses the gaseous refrigerant into a liquid refrigerant to absorb the heat of the high-temperature cooking oil in the cooling tank.

[0037] The present application provides an edible oil cooling device, which includes a base, a cooling tank disposed on the base for accommodating high-temperature edible oil, and a liquid cooling mechanism disposed between the base and the cooling tank. The liquid cooling mechanism includes a first heat exchange sleeve and a second heat exchange sleeve both disposed on the base. A flowing refrigerant is provided in both the first heat exchange sleeve and the second heat exchange sleeve. By attaching the outer wall of the cooling tank to the liquid cooling mechanism, the heat of the high-temperature edible oil in the cooling tank can be transferred to the refrigerant, so as to quickly and evenly reduce the temperature of the high-temperature edible oil in the cooling tank, avoid high-temperature oxidation of the edible oil during the production process, and has the advantages of high cooling efficiency, effectively ensuring the quality of the edible oil, simple operation steps, energy conservation and environmental protection, and being convenient for popularization and implementation.
