Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an emulsifying device, in particular to an emulsifying pot suitable for a variety of materials, belonging to the technical field of food processing machinery. Background Art

[0002] Emulsifying pot is a commonly used equipment in biomedicine, food industry, daily chemical care products, petrochemical industry and other industries. It mainly uses the strong kinetic energy brought by mechanical stirring to make the material centrifugally squeezed, impacted and torn in the narrow gap between the stator and rotor, so that the material can be quickly and evenly dispersed and floated. After high-frequency circulation, it finally obtains bubble-free, delicate and stable high-quality products.

[0003] For example, the Chinese utility model patent: A homogenizing emulsifier with single-side scraping planetary agitation (Announcement No.: CN203303848U, Announcement Date: November 2, 2013) discloses: "It also includes a homogenizer and a discharging mechanism located at the bottom of the emulsifying pot. The homogenizer includes a homogenizing head located at the bottom of the pot body and a motor located outside the pot body for driving the homogenizing head to rotate."

[0004] A Chinese utility model patent, "A Vacuum Homogenizing Emulsifier" (Announcement No. CN206103737U, Announcement Date: April 19, 2017), discloses: "A homogenizing motor is provided at the bottom of the emulsifying pot, electrically connected to the homogenizer, and electrically connected to a controller. The operating time of the homogenizer is set by the staff according to actual needs. Generally, facial cleansers are operated for 5-8 minutes, and creams for about 10 minutes. When the homogenizer is turned on, the stirring speed of the stepless speed regulation stirring system is preferably 10 revolutions per minute. After the homogenizer is stopped, the stirring speed is accelerated to 45-60 revolutions per minute."

[0005] The Chinese utility model patent, Tilting Vacuum Homogenizer (Announcement No. CN206793600U, Announcement Date: December 26, 2017), discloses: "A homogenizer is provided at the bottom of the homogenizing emulsifying pot, and a stirrer is provided within the homogenizing emulsifying pot. The stirrer rotates in opposite directions to the homogenizer, allowing the homogenizing emulsifying pot to fully mix the materials and achieve a better emulsification effect."

[0006] A Chinese utility model patent, "A Homogenizing Tank" (Announcement No. CN207822937U, Announcement Date: September 7, 2018), discloses: "It includes a dispersing and emulsifying homogenizer, an emulsifying pot, and a feed tank. The feed tank feeds material into the emulsifying pot through a feed pipe. The stirring end of the dispersing and emulsifying homogenizer extends into the emulsifying pot to disperse and emulsify the material in the emulsifying pot. The homogenizing tank of this utility model utilizes the dispersing and emulsifying homogenizer to stir the material, and two ultrasonic vibration components are inserted into the side and bottom of the emulsifying pot, respectively."

[0007] Chinese utility model patent: A circulating homogenizing emulsifying pot for producing essence liquid with uniform material mixing (Announcement No.: CN218530646U, Announcement Date: 2023.02.28) discloses: "It includes a main pot, a jacket and a homogenizer. The jacket is arranged on the surface of the main pot. The bottom of the jacket is fixedly connected to two left and right support legs. The homogenizer is arranged at the bottom of the main pot. A stirring mechanism is arranged inside the main pot. The homogenizer 3 is a commonly used equipment for emulsifying pots."

[0008] However, existing emulsifiers have relatively limited functions. For example, the materials delivered to the filling machine are generally aqueous liquids. If oily liquids need to be delivered, additional equipment is required. The emulsifier generally adds all materials, whether liquid or solid, through a single feed port. If materials need to be added in batches, the feed port needs to be opened and sealed multiple times, which is cumbersome. Some materials have certain temperature requirements during homogenization or before filling, requiring additional equipment to achieve temperature control. This not only increases production costs, occupies more production space, but also increases labor intensity.

[0009] Therefore, it is urgent to develop and design a new type of emulsifying pot to meet the different needs of various materials. Summary of the Invention

[0010] In view of the above existing technical problems, the utility model provides an emulsifying pot suitable for a variety of materials to take into account the different needs of processing a variety of materials.

[0011] To achieve the above technical objectives, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions: an emulsifying pot suitable for a variety of materials, comprising an emulsifying pot mounted on a frame; a main feeding port is provided on the top of the emulsifying pot, and is respectively connected to a pure water inlet pipe and a CIP cleaning pipe; a homogenizer is installed at the bottom of the emulsifying pot, and is connected to a main discharge pipe; a homogenizing reflux pipe is connected between the top and bottom of the emulsifying pot;

[0012] The main discharge pipe is connected to a sewage pipe, and is respectively connected to an oil discharge pipe and a liquid discharge pipe through a tee; a diaphragm pump is installed on the oil discharge pipe; and a centrifugal pump is installed on the liquid discharge pipe.

[0013] The utility model further provides that the top of the emulsifying pot is connected to a liquid feed pipe, and is connected to a vacuum pump through a pipeline.

[0014] Furthermore, the utility model provides a funnel-shaped auxiliary feeding port on the top of the emulsifying pot, and a sealing cover is installed on the top of the auxiliary feeding port and a valve is installed on the bottom.

[0015] Furthermore, the utility model provides an annular interlayer in the wall of the emulsifying pot, and the bottom of the interlayer is connected to a cooling water inlet pipe, and the top is connected to a cooling water circulation pipe.

[0016] Furthermore, the utility model provides that the top of the interlayer is connected to a steam inlet pipe, the bottom is connected to a steam exhaust pipe, and a steam trap is installed on the steam exhaust pipe.

[0017] Furthermore, the utility model is provided with a perspective mirror installed on the sewage pipe.

[0018] Furthermore, the utility model provides that a pressure gauge and an exhaust valve are installed on the top of the emulsifying pot.

[0019] In summary, the beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are:

[0020] 1. This utility model divides the emulsification pot's discharge end into two pipes: an oil discharge pipe and a liquid discharge pipe. A diaphragm pump is installed on the oil discharge pipe to transport oily materials, while a centrifugal pump is installed on the liquid discharge pipe to handle aqueous materials. During operation, the discharge pipe can be selected according to the type of material, allowing a single emulsification pot to handle both oily and aqueous materials, reducing equipment costs and saving space.

[0021] 2. In addition to the main feeding port, the utility model is additionally provided with a liquid feeding pipe and a vacuum pump. The vacuum pump creates a negative pressure in the emulsification pot, so that the liquid material in the liquid material tank is sucked into the emulsification pot through the liquid feeding pipe, thereby realizing automatic feeding of the liquid material, saving manpower and improving production efficiency.

[0022] 3. In addition to the main feeding port, the utility model also has an auxiliary feeding port, which is specially used to feed a small amount of auxiliary materials, avoiding the tedious process of opening the main feeding port and reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0023] 4. The utility model adds an interlayer inside the wall of the emulsifying pot, and cooling water or steam can be introduced into the interlayer. When the material is homogenized and emulsified, steam can be introduced to heat the material as needed. After the homogenization and emulsification of the material is completed, cooling water can also be introduced to cool the material as needed. At the same time, turning on the vacuum pump can also shorten the heating time and cooling time.

[0024] 5. The utility model installs a perspective mirror on the sewage pipe, which can more intuitively see the situation inside the drainage pipe and prevent materials from being discharged by mistake. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] An embodiment of the present invention: Figure 1 As shown, the emulsifying pot suitable for a variety of materials includes an emulsifying pot 6, a homogenizer 9 and a frame 8, which are described in detail as follows.

[0031] The emulsifying pot 6 is fixedly mounted on a frame 8 , a homogenizer 9 is mounted at the bottom of the emulsifying pot 6 , and a homogenizing reflux pipe 7 is connected between the top and bottom of the emulsifying pot 6 for homogenizing and stirring the material inside the emulsifying pot 6 .

[0032] The top of the emulsification pot 6 is provided with a main feeding port 4 , which is connected to a pure water inlet pipe 25 and a CIP cleaning pipe 1 ; the bottom of the emulsification pot 6 is connected to a main discharge pipe 14 , which is connected to a sewage pipe 13 .

[0033] In particular, the bottom end of the main discharge pipe 14 is connected to an oil discharge pipe 16 and a liquid discharge pipe 12 via a tee, thereby dividing the discharge from the emulsifying pot 6 into two pipes: the oil discharge pipe 16 and the liquid discharge pipe 12. The oil discharge pipe 16 is equipped with a diaphragm pump 17 for conveying oily liquids (such as honey) to the filling machine; the liquid discharge pipe 12 is equipped with a centrifugal pump 11 for conveying watery liquids to the filling machine. Furthermore, a sewage pipe 13 is connected to the liquid discharge pipe 12, thereby communicating with the bottom end of the main discharge pipe 14. Valves are installed on the sewage pipe 13, the oil discharge pipe 16, and the liquid discharge pipe 12 to control the flow direction of the material and wastewater.

[0034] In practice, when the emulsifying pot 6 of the present invention is in operation, the primary material (e.g., bulk material, solid material, etc.) is first introduced into the emulsifying pot 6 through the main feed port 4. Pure water is then introduced into the emulsifying pot 6 through the pure water inlet pipe 25 to dilute the material. The material is then stirred, dispersed, and dissolved in the pure water by the homogenizer 9. The material then flows back through the homogenizer reflux pipe 7 and, once fully dissolved, is discharged from the main discharge pipe 14. The discharge pipe is then selected based on the type of material. If the material is an oily liquid, the valve on the oil discharge pipe 16 is opened, and the diaphragm pump 17 is activated to deliver the oily liquid to the filling machine. If the material is an aqueous liquid, the valve on the liquid discharge pipe 12 is opened, and the centrifugal pump 11 is activated to deliver the aqueous liquid to the filling machine. In this way, a single device can handle both oily and aqueous materials, reducing equipment costs, saving space, and improving production efficiency.

[0035] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, the rest are the same as the above embodiments, except that, Figure 1 As shown, the top of the emulsifying pot 6 is connected to a liquid feeding pipe 3, and the top of the emulsifying pot 6 is connected to a vacuum pump 10 through a pipeline, so as to facilitate the loading of liquid materials.

[0036] In practice, the liquid feed pipe 3 is connected to the liquid material tank, and the vacuum pump 10 is turned on to create a negative pressure inside the emulsifying pot 6. At this point, the valve on the liquid feed pipe 3 is opened, and the liquid material in the liquid material tank is sucked into the emulsifying pot 6 by the negative pressure, thereby achieving automatic feeding of the liquid material and improving production efficiency. Furthermore, the vacuum pump 10 can also create a vacuum in the pipe, thereby increasing the uniformity of the material and playing a role in defoaming.

[0037] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, the rest are the same as the above embodiments, except that, Figure 1 As shown, a funnel-shaped auxiliary feeding port 5 is provided on the top of the emulsifying pot 6, and a sealing cover is installed on the top of the auxiliary feeding port 5 and a valve is installed on the bottom, which is mainly used for feeding small amounts of materials.

[0038] In specific implementation, when homogenizing and stirring the materials, it is possible to add small amounts of materials (such as flavors, spices and other auxiliary materials) in batches according to production needs. In this case, if the main feeding port 4 that is larger and tightly sealed is opened, the operation will be more complicated, so the auxiliary feeding port 5 that is smaller and easier to open is used instead, which makes the operation more convenient and improves production efficiency.

[0039] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, the rest are the same as the above embodiments, except that, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an annular interlayer 23 is provided in the wall of the emulsifying pot 6 ; the bottom of the interlayer 23 is connected to a cooling water inlet pipe 20 , and the top is connected to a cooling water circulation pipe 22 .

[0040] In specific implementation, the cooling water inlet pipe 20 and the cooling water circulation pipe 22 are connected to the cooling water source, so that the cooling water enters the interlayer 23 from the bottom and exits from the top, thereby cooling the material that needs to be cooled inside the emulsifying pot 6.

[0041] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, the rest are the same as the above embodiments, except that, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the top of the interlayer 23 is connected to a steam inlet pipe 24 , and the bottom is connected to a steam exhaust pipe 18 ; a steam trap 19 is installed on the steam exhaust pipe 18 .

[0042] In practice, steam is introduced into interlayer 23 via steam inlet pipe 24 and discharged through steam exhaust pipe 18, thereby heating the material to be heated within emulsification pot 6. Steam trap 19 allows only steam to pass through, preventing water from being discharged. Furthermore, emulsification pot 6 can be heated or cooled as needed, with steam introduced during heating and cooling water introduced during cooling. Activating vacuum pump 10 during heating or cooling can also shorten heating and cooling times.

[0043] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, the rest are the same as the above embodiments, except that, Figure 1 As shown, a perspective mirror 15 is installed on the sewage pipe 13, which can more intuitively see the situation in the sewage pipe 13 and prevent materials from being discharged by mistake.

[0044] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, the rest are the same as the above embodiments, except that, Figure 1 As shown, a pressure gauge 21 and an exhaust valve 2 are installed on the top of the emulsifying pot 6, so that the pressure value in the pot can be observed for safe discharge to ensure production safety.

[0045] The above embodiments are intended only to illustrate the technical concepts and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable those familiar with the art to understand the present invention and implement it accordingly. They are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications based on the spirit of the main technical solution of the present invention are intended to be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
