Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of processing equipment, and specifically discloses a sanitary pipeline conversion plate. Background Technique

[0002] At present, a large part of beer fermentation tanks and pipeline connection conversion plates for sake tanks in the industry adopt double-sided plates and single-sided welding. The hole sizes on the pipe plate are the same as those of the pipelines, and the full-welding method is used. The existing turnover equipment and process for concentrated fruit juice (publication number: CN117842542A) have at least the following disadvantages:

[0003] 1. Although the existing pipeline conversion plate can connect the pipelines in this pipe plate style, it is prone to welding deformation, and the manual workload is large, time-consuming and laborious, and the efficiency is low. Therefore, a device that can reduce welding deformation is urgently needed.

[0004] 2. In the industry of existing pipeline conversion plates, the processing of such pipeline conversion plates ignores the problem of manual working hours. Usually, manual hole opening and welding are adopted, which is time-consuming and laborious. The difficulty in solving lies in that the design of such pipeline conversion plates requires high requirements for tooling equipment and professional jigs, and high requirements for welding level. Therefore, a device that can reduce working hours is urgently needed.

[0005] 3. Due to the complexity of the design of the existing pipeline conversion plate, its processing process requires high requirements for tooling equipment, especially the need to be equipped with professional jigs, and high requirements for the technical level of welding workers, which increases the manufacturing difficulty and cost. Therefore, a device that can reduce equipment and technical requirements is urgently needed. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a sanitary pipeline conversion plate, which can effectively solve the problems in the background technique.

[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a sanitary pipeline conversion plate, including a welding plate, a square pipe is installed on the side of the welding plate, a bottom plate is installed below the welding plate, a valve is installed on the welding plate, a carbon dioxide discharge pipe is installed on the welding plate, a carbon dioxide supply pipe is installed below the carbon dioxide discharge pipe, a compressed air supply pipe is installed below the carbon dioxide supply pipe, a sake tank L pipe is installed below the compressed air supply pipe, and a CIP inlet pipe is installed below the sake tank L pipe.

[0008] Preferably, a cold wort inlet pipe is installed below the CIP inlet pipe.

[0009] Preferably, a fermented liquid outlet pipe is installed below the cold wort inlet pipe.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting sake sewage pipe is installed below the fermented liquid outlet pipe.

[0011] Preferably, a yeast outlet pipe is installed below the connecting sake sewage pipe.

[0012] Preferably, a CIP return pipe is installed below the yeast outlet pipe.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The pipeline conversion plate of the utility model adopts a spot welding design, reducing the number of welding points and significantly shrinking the welding area. This reduces the heat input and the possibility of thermal deformation during welding, thus ensuring the flatness of the pipe plate and the stability of the overall structure. Due to the reduction of welding points, the welding operation of the new pipeline conversion plate is simpler, the welding time is greatly shortened, the workload of workers is correspondingly reduced, and the welding efficiency is significantly improved. The labor cost during welding is also reduced accordingly.

[0015] 2. The pipeline conversion plate of the utility model adopts laser cutting and hole opening technology, with more precise design, high hole opening accuracy, and only three contact points need to be welded. This not only simplifies the operation process but also reduces the processing time and welding difficulty, thus significantly reducing the man-hours and improving the overall production efficiency.

[0016] 3. The design of the pipeline conversion plate of the utility model simplifies the welding process. The spot welding method reduces the dependence on welding jigs and also reduces the technical requirements for welding workers. Without excessive professional equipment and complex welding operations, the processing process is more convenient, more adaptable, and the manufacturing cost is also reduced accordingly.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0025] Embodiment

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution:

[0027] A sanitary pipeline conversion plate includes a welding plate. A square pipe is installed on the side of the welding plate. A bottom plate is installed below the welding plate. A valve is installed on the welding plate. A carbon dioxide discharge pipe is installed on the welding plate. A carbon dioxide supply pipe is installed below the carbon dioxide discharge pipe. A compressed air supply pipe is installed below the carbon dioxide supply pipe. A clear wine tank L pipe is installed below the compressed air supply pipe. A CIP inlet pipe is installed below the clear wine tank L pipe. A cold wort incoming pipe is installed below the CIP inlet pipe. A fermentation liquid outlet pipe is installed below the cold wort incoming pipe. A connecting clear wine sewage discharge pipe is installed below the fermentation liquid outlet pipe. A yeast outlet pipe is installed below the connecting clear wine sewage discharge pipe. A CIP return pipe is installed below the yeast outlet pipe.

[0028] It should be noted that the new pipeline conversion plate uses laser cutting and hole opening for the welding plate. The holes are three welding point holes. The size of the small holes is the same as that of the pipeline, and the large hole is 16 mm larger than the inner hole diameter. When welding with the pipeline, only 3 contact points are welded, reducing the welding area and at the same time reducing the probability of welding deformation and improving work efficiency. It can be connected faster and better when making cross-pipe connections.

[0029] It should be noted that in actual use, the new pipeline conversion plate adopts spot welding design. Compared with the traditional full welding design, the number of welding points is reduced by about 70%. The traditional design requires 20 welding points, while the new design only needs 6 welding points. By reducing the welding area, experimental data shows that the welding deformation rate of the tube sheet has decreased by about 30%. Taking 100 samples as an example, the average welding deformation of the traditional method is 1.5 mm, while the average welding deformation of the new design is only 1.0 mm. This deformation control significantly improves the flatness of the tube sheet and the stability of the overall structure. Using laser cutting and hole-opening technology, the hole-opening accuracy of the new pipeline conversion plate reaches ±0.05 mm, which is significantly improved compared with ±0.2 mm of the traditional method. Taking the mass production of 100 conversion plates as an example, the processing time of the new design is reduced from the average 30 minutes per piece of the traditional method to 15 minutes per piece, and the total production time is saved by about 50%. The reduction of welding difficulty makes the unqualified rate drop from 10% of the traditional method to 3% of the new design, greatly reducing rework and material waste. The new pipeline conversion plate reduces the need for complex welding fixtures through spot welding. The traditional method usually requires specially customized fixtures, with a cost of about 5000 yuan, while the simplification of the new design reduces the required fixture cost to 2000 yuan. Comparing the two methods, the fixture replacement frequency in production is also reduced from once every 1000 pieces to once every 3000 pieces, greatly extending the service life of the fixture and reducing production downtime. Experimental data shows that the training time of production workers is also reduced from 2 weeks of the traditional method to 1 week of the new method, further reducing the training cost and time.

[0030] It should be noted that the following is a comparison table of experimental data between the present utility model and traditional equipment:

[0031] Comparison items Traditional This utility model Superiority Number of welding points 20 6 Reduced by 70% Welding deformation rate 1.5 mm 1.0 mm Decreased by 30% Processing time (minutes / piece) 30 15 Reduced by 50% Hole opening accuracy (±mm) ±02 ±0.05 Improved to ±0.05 Unqualified rate 10% 3% Decreased by 70%
