The common sugar dissolution feeding equipment is manual pouring, which is the traditional open-type sugar addition (directly pouring sugar granules into the storage tank). During the sugar dissolution process, it is necessary to manually pour the materials bag by bag continuously. Therefore, it is time-consuming and laborious, and there is an urgent need for an efficient sugar dissolution feeding device. Summary of the Invention

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the sugar granules are separated from the air through the filter, and the sugar granules are filtered out, effectively preventing the sugar granules from entering the vacuum system and playing an efficient role in filtering the sugar granules.

[0014] Further, a filtering device is provided on the vacuum system, and the filtering device is connected to the vacuum pipe.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the filtering device plays a role in secondary filtering of sugar granules, further preventing sugar granules from entering the vacuum system and playing an efficient role in filtering sugar granules.

[0016] Further, a vacuum control valve is provided on the vacuum pipe.

[0020] Further, a pipeline sight glass is provided on the discharge pipe.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the pipeline sight glass can observe the feeding situation of sugar granules in the material suction pipe at any time, playing a role in monitoring production and avoiding accidents during the production process.

[0022] In summary, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the above technical solutions are as follows:
