Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coconut milk processing, and particularly relates to a device for mixing coconut cream and coconut water. Background Art

[0002] Coconut milk can be obtained by mixing, emulsifying coconut cream, coconut water, emulsifier and ingredients. In order to produce coconut milk with delicate taste, uniform emulsion and mellow taste, each manufacturer has its own unique production process. In the compatible process, there are strict requirements for the proportions of coconut cream, coconut water and emulsifier. At the same time, there are corresponding requirements for the emulsification temperature at each stage during the mixing and emulsification process.

[0003] When the inventor implemented the relevant mixing and emulsification process, it was found that the existing mixing and emulsification equipment could not well match the relevant process in terms of temperature control, resulting in the inability to carry out large-scale production strictly according to the process requirements and low production efficiency. The performance is that the water temperature of the mixture changes slowly in the mixing and emulsification equipment, resulting in unstable mixing and emulsification effects.

[0004] In view of this, a device for mixing coconut cream and coconut water is designed to increase the water temperature change rate during the mixing and emulsification process and improve the stability of the mixing and emulsification effect. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a device for mixing coconut cream and coconut water to solve the problems described in the background art.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is realized as follows:

[0007] A device for mixing coconut milk and coconut water, comprising a support base, on which a mixing barrel with an open upper end is fixedly provided. At the bottom inside the mixing barrel, there is a stirrer, and below the bottom of the mixing barrel, there is also a stirring motor for driving the stirrer to rotate. At the bottom of the mixing barrel, there is also a drain pipe for discharging the liquid inside the mixing barrel, and a drain valve is provided in the drain pipe. The top of the mixing barrel is detachably covered with a barrel cover, and an emulsifying component is installed on the barrel cover. The emulsifying component includes an emulsifying head fixedly provided below the barrel cover and an emulsifying motor fixedly provided above the barrel cover. The emulsifying motor and the emulsifying head are drivingly connected. Below the barrel cover, a plurality of temperature control inserts are also fixedly installed. The plurality of temperature control inserts are circumferentially distributed with the emulsifying head as the center. At the top of the temperature control insert, a vertical water inlet groove and a vertical water outlet groove are opened downward. The bottom of the vertical water inlet groove and the vertical water outlet groove are also communicated with each other by opening a water passing hole. The top of the vertical water inlet groove is connected with a water inlet adapter, the top of the water inlet adapter is connected with a water inlet pipe, the top of the vertical water outlet groove is connected with a water outlet adapter, and the top of the water outlet adapter is connected with a water outlet pipe. The water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are arranged in the barrel cover and penetrate upward through the barrel cover. Above the barrel cover, there are also a water inlet main pipe and a water outlet main pipe. The water inlet main pipe is connected with the water inlet pipes of the plurality of temperature control inserts, and the water outlet main pipe is connected with the water outlet pipes of the plurality of temperature control inserts. The left and right ends of the temperature control insert are gradually narrowed from the middle to the outside into a linear shape, and when the barrel cover is closed, the center of the emulsifying head coincides with the center of the stirrer.

[0008] When using the above scheme, pour coconut milk, coconut water and related ingredients into the mixing barrel together, start the emulsifying motor and the stirring motor. The emulsifying motor drives the emulsifying head to act, and the stirring motor drives the stirrer to act. Under the mutual cooperation of the two, various raw materials in the mixing barrel start to be mixed and emulsified. When the temperature needs to be changed, adjust the inlet water temperature flowing into the water inlet main pipe. The water flow for temperature adjustment enters the vertical water inlet groove through the water inlet pipe, then flows into the vertical water outlet groove through the water passing hole at the bottom of the vertical water inlet groove, and then flows from the vertical water outlet groove to the water outlet pipe and the water outlet main pipe, completing the entire flow cycle. The temperature control insert is quickly adjusted to the required emulsifying temperature in this flow cycle.

[0009] By setting the temperature control inserts to be circumferentially distributed with the emulsifying head as the center, the temperature control inserts are widely distributed in the mixing barrel. Compared with the traditional mixing and emulsifying equipment that only adjusts the inner wall of the mixing barrel, both sides of the temperature control insert can fully contact the mixed liquid, improving the contact surface between the temperature control component and the mixed liquid, thereby increasing the temperature change speed of the mixed liquid and enabling the mixed liquid of coconut milk and coconut water to obtain a suitable mixing and emulsifying temperature faster.

[0010] By setting the left and right ends of the temperature control insert to be gradually narrowed from the middle to the outside into a linear shape, when the vortex water flow generated by the mixing and emulsifying passes through the temperature control insert, the linear ends can break the water flow, reducing the impact resistance and reducing the influence of the temperature control insert on the vortex.

[0011] Since the temperature control plug blocks the swirling water flow, the rotation efficiency of the mixed liquid is reduced. Therefore, a stirrer and a stirring motor are set to compensate, maintaining the rotation efficiency of the swirling water flow. While improving the temperature adjustment efficiency of the mixed liquid, the mixing and emulsifying effect is ensured not to decrease.

[0012] A further technical solution is to make a virtual circle with the center of the emulsifying head as the center of the circle, and both the left and right ends of the temperature control plug are simultaneously on the same virtual circle.

[0013] When using the above solution, by setting both the left and right ends of the temperature control plug to be simultaneously on the same virtual circle, the influence of the temperature control plug on the swirling water flow is minimized as much as possible.

[0014] A further technical solution is that multiple temperature control plugs are distributed in multiple circles with the center of the emulsifying head as the center of the circle, from the inside to the outside. The temperature control plugs within the same circle are separated from each other, and the temperature control plugs in different circles are separated from each other.

[0015] When using the above solution, by installing and distributing them in regular circles, and distributing them in multiple circles from the inside to the outside and being separable from each other, it is proposed to effectively increase the distribution density of the temperature control plugs while reducing the influence on the swirling water flow.

[0016] A further technical solution is that the bottom of the temperature control plug is provided with a bottom chamfer, and the bottom chamfer makes the bottom of the temperature control plug gradually narrow into a line shape from top to bottom.

[0017] When using the above solution, by chamfering the bottom of the temperature control plug, when the mixed liquid generates an up and down circulating water flow during mixing and emulsifying, the up and down circulating water flow moves from the inside to the outside at the bottom and then moves from the bottom to the top after reaching the outside. The line shape where the bottom of the temperature control plug gradually narrows from top to bottom can effectively break the water flow moving from the bottom to the top, reducing the resistance to the up and down circulating water flow.

[0018] A further technical solution is that the outer plate surface of the temperature control plug facing away from the emulsifying head is the outer plate surface, and the inner plate surface of the temperature control plug facing the emulsifying head is the inner plate surface. The outer plate surface coincides with the virtual circle made with the center of the emulsifying head as the center of the circle, and the inner plate surface is an arc surface.

[0019] When using the above solution, by setting the outer plate surface to coincide with the virtual circle and the end being on the virtual circle, the end is tangent to the virtual circle and the outer plate surface coincides, further reducing the blocking effect of the temperature control plug on the swirling water flow.

[0020] A further technical solution is that the output shaft of the stirring motor extends upward and is rotationally sealed and passes through the bottom wall of the mixing barrel, and the output shaft of the stirring motor passes through the bottom wall of the mixing barrel upward and is drivingly connected to the stirrer.

[0021] A further technical solution is that the temperature control plug is made of stainless steel material.

[0022] A further technical solution is that a lifting component is also provided on the top of the bucket lid.

[0023] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0024] 1. Efficient temperature control: Through the setting of the temperature control plugboard, efficient temperature control of the mixed liquid is achieved. The temperature control plugboard is widely distributed in the mixing bucket, fully contacting the mixed liquid, improving the speed of temperature change, and enabling the mixed liquid of coconut milk and coconut water to reach the appropriate mixing and emulsifying temperature faster.

[0025] 2. Optimized design of the temperature control plugboard: The linear end design of the temperature control plugboard can break the swirling water flow, reduce the impact resistance, and reduce the influence on the swirl, thereby maintaining the stability of the swirling water flow. At the same time, the chamfer design at its bottom can also effectively break the up and down circulating water flow and reduce the resistance.

[0026] 3. Stirring compensation mechanism: By setting the stirrer and the stirring motor, the reduction in the rotation efficiency of the mixed liquid caused by the temperature control plugboard blocking the swirling water flow is compensated, ensuring the mixing and emulsifying effect.

[0027] 4. Precise layout of the temperature control plugboard: The temperature control plugboards are distributed in a regular circle, and their left and right ends are on the same virtual circle, minimizing their influence on the swirling water flow and further ensuring the mixing and emulsifying effect.
