Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of edible oil production, and specifically to a rapid cooling device for edible oil production. Background Art

[0002] The raw materials of edible oil are mainly divided into two categories: vegetable oil and animal oil. The raw materials of vegetable oil include soybeans, peanuts, rapeseeds, cottonseeds, colza seeds, sunflower seeds, etc.; the raw materials of animal oil are mainly lard, beef tallow, etc.

[0003] The process of edible oil production begins with the preparation of raw materials, such as the collection and processing of seeds or fruits. Then, the raw materials are extracted with oil through processes such as pressing or leaching. The extracted oil will be refined, including steps such as degumming, deacidification, decolorization, deodorization, etc., to remove impurities and improve the quality of the oil. During the production process, especially after processes such as pressing and refining, the temperature of the edible oil will rise, and at this time, cooling treatment is required.

[0004] For example, the patent with the publication number CN220750883U discloses a rapid cooling device for edible oil production. Through the settings of a water delivery pipe, a bent pipe, a refrigeration device, a circulation pump, and a finned tube radiator, the circulation pump injects water cooled by the refrigeration device into the water delivery pipe and the bent pipe. The cold water cools the edible oil in the cooling tank, and the water after heat exchange flows into the finned tube radiator to dissipate part of the heat and then enters the refrigeration device for cooling.

[0005] However, during the implementation of the above patent, when the edible oil exchanges heat with the cooling medium, condensation water droplets may appear on the colder side. When the condensation water droplets accumulate to a certain extent, it will affect the cooling efficiency, thereby reducing the cooling efficiency of the edible oil.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0035] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The following will describe the present application in detail with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0036] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0037] Such as Figures 1 - 3As shown in the figure, the present application provides a rapid cooling device for edible oil production, including a heat exchanger 1. The heat exchanger 1 includes a frame body 2. At the same time, a lower head 13 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the frame body 2. An outer shell 7 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the lower head 13. And a first inlet 12 is fixedly arranged at one side of the upper end of the outer shell 7. The first inlet 12 is used to guide the edible oil to be cooled into the interior of the outer shell 7. At the same time, a first outlet 6 is fixedly arranged at a position near the lower head 13 at the lower end of the outer shell 7. The first outlet 6 is used for the cooled edible oil to leave the heat exchanger 1.

[0038] It should be noted that the first inlet 12 and the first outlet 6 together constitute the flow path of the edible oil in the heat exchanger 1.

[0039] At the same time, an inner shell 8 is fixedly arranged at a position inside the outer shell 7 at the upper end of the lower head 13. A storage space for storing the edible oil is formed between the inner shell 8 and the outer shell 7. Thus, under the action of an external pump body, the edible oil can enter the storage space from the first inlet 12 and be exported through the first outlet 6.

[0040] And a second inlet 3 is fixedly arranged at one side of the lower head 13. The second inlet 3 is used to introduce a cooling medium. A second outlet 4 is fixedly arranged at a position of the lower head 13 far from the second inlet 3. The second outlet 4 is used to discharge the cooling medium that has absorbed heat for recycling or treatment.

[0041] At the same time, a baffle 10 is fixedly arranged inside the lower head 13. The baffle 10 divides the inner area of the lower head 13 into an input chamber and an output chamber. The input chamber is communicated with the second inlet 3 and is used to receive the cooling medium introduced by the second inlet 3. The output chamber is communicated with the second outlet 4 and is used to export the cooling medium after heat exchange operation.

[0042] And a tube sheet 9 is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the inner shell 8. A tube bundle 11 is fixedly arranged at a position inside the inner shell 8 at the upper end of the tube sheet 9. It should be noted that the tube sheet 9 is provided with multiple groups of small holes, and the small holes are used to fixedly arrange the tube bundle 11.

[0043] The tube bundle 11 is divided into an input end located inside the input chamber and an output end located inside the output chamber. Thus, the cooling liquid in the input chamber can be introduced into the tube bundle 11 through the input end and the cooling liquid can be exported to the output chamber through the output end.

[0044] It should be noted that the tube bundle 11 is in direct contact with the inner wall of the inner shell 8. Thus, the temperature on the cooling liquid can be transferred to the inner shell 8, and heat exchange is carried out between the inner shell 8 and the edible oil in the storage space, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the temperature of the edible oil.

[0045] In the present application, a sealing ring 14 is provided at the connection between the tube sheet 9 and the inner shell 8, and the sealing ring 14 is used to maintain the tightness of the storage space;

[0046] When the edible oil exchanges heat with the cooling medium, when the temperature inside the tube of the inner shell 8 is lower than the dew point temperature of the edible oil outside the tube, thus, condensed water droplets will form on the inner wall of the inner shell 8;

[0047] In order to smoothly discharge the condensed water droplets formed on the inner wall of the tube from the inner shell 8, as Figures 2 - 4 shown, a drainage mechanism 5 is fixedly arranged at the position where the bottom end of the inner shell 8 is above the upper end of the tube sheet 9;

[0048] The drainage mechanism 5 includes a water collecting box 52 fixedly arranged at the bottom end of the inner shell 8. The water collecting box 52 is used to collect the condensed water droplets on the inner wall of the tube, prevent them from accumulating inside the inner shell 8 and affecting the heat exchange effect. And a drain pipe 53 is fixedly arranged outside the water collecting box 52. The drain pipe 53 penetrates through the outer shell 7 and enters the inside of the inner shell 8, and is used to connect the water collecting box 52 with the outside, so as to timely discharge the condensed water droplets in the water collecting box 52, thus not affecting the heat exchange work;

[0049] At the same time, a guiding plate 51 is fixedly arranged inside the water collecting box 52. The guiding plate 51 is inclined, and the inclined direction is along the position where the condensed water droplets flow to the drain pipe 53, and the height gradually decreases, so that the condensed water droplets can be smoothly discharged through the drain pipe 53 for subsequent treatment.

[0050] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included within the protection scope of the present application.
