Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food production, in particular to a material tank for food production. Background Art

[0002] Food production is a broad field, encompassing the entire process from raw material sourcing, processing, packaging, to distribution. This process involves multiple steps, each with its own specific technical requirements and quality control standards. Maintaining high standards of hygiene and food safety throughout the food production process is crucial. Furthermore, as consumers increasingly focus on healthy eating and sustainable development, food manufacturers must continuously innovate, adapt to market changes, and meet diverse demands.

[0003] Food production tanks are containers used to store, mix, heat, cool, react, or transport raw materials, intermediates, or finished products during food processing. They are typically made of 304 or 316L stainless steel, which are corrosion-resistant and easy to clean. Food production tanks meet food contact requirements. Their design and use must comply with relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards to ensure the quality and safety of the final product. Furthermore, regular maintenance and calibration are required to ensure all equipment is in good working order.

[0004] In the prior art, material tanks usually use ordinary sealing valves to seal the discharge port and the feed port to prevent external contaminants from entering the tank, thereby ensuring the purity and safety of the material. Although this meets the use requirements to a certain extent, the sealing valve has a complex internal structure and has the disadvantage of slow opening and closing speed. Because the valve opens or closes slowly, each operation requires extra time to wait for the valve to be fully opened or closed, which will extend the overall production cycle and thus reduce production efficiency.

[0008] Preferably, a motor is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting frame, and an output shaft of the food production motor is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating shaft through a coupling.

[0009] Preferably, a shaft seal is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the food production shaft seal is fixedly mounted inside the first connecting pipe.

[0010] Preferably, a stirring assembly is fixedly installed on the top of the storage tank, and a heating assembly is fixedly installed on the bottom of the storage tank.

[0011] Preferably, a pressure gauge is fixedly installed on the top of the storage tank, a temperature gauge is fixedly installed on the top of the storage tank, and a pressure relief valve is fixedly installed on the top of the storage tank.

[0012] Preferably, a liquid level gauge is fixedly installed on one side of the storage tank.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the material tank for food production;

[0014] 1. The internal passage of the first connecting pipe is blocked by a sealing piece, and then the interior of the inflation chamber is inflated through the cooperation of the air pump, the electronically controlled air relief valve, the conduit, the one-way valve, the second connecting pipe, and the air pipe, so that the sealing strip expands and deforms and squeezes the outer wall of the sealing piece to ensure the seal between the first connecting pipe and the sealing piece. When the internal passage of the first connecting pipe needs to be opened, the air in the inflation chamber only needs to be discharged through the electronically controlled air relief valve, and then the sealing piece can be rotated by the cooperation between the motor and the rotating shaft. The internal structure of the sealing mechanism is simple, and the opening and closing is fast. The problem of low production efficiency that each operation requires extra time to wait for the valve to be fully opened or closed is solved. The seal between the rotating shaft and the first connecting pipe is ensured by the shaft seal to prevent leakage.

[0015] 2. The coordination between the storage tank, heating component and stirring component enables the device to have additional stirring and heating functions. Its rational use is of great significance to improving production efficiency and ensuring product quality.

[0016] By monitoring the pressure with a pressure gauge, leakage problems in the tank or joints can be discovered in time to prevent material loss and environmental pollution. By monitoring the temperature with a thermometer, the material can be prevented from deteriorating or being thermally damaged due to excessive temperature. By releasing the pressure in time with a pressure relief valve, the storage tank can operate within the designed pressure range, ensuring the integrity and long-term durability of the tank structure. By monitoring the liquid level changes in the tank in real time with a liquid level gauge, the operator can understand the storage status of the material in the tank.

[0024] The specific implementation method is: the internal passage of the first connecting tube 201 is blocked by the sealing plate 202, and then the interior of the inflation chamber 204 is inflated through the cooperation between the air pump 213, the electrically controlled air release valve 214, the conduit 212, the one-way valve 211, the second connecting tube 208, and the air pipe 207 to make the sealing strip 203 expand and deform to squeeze the outer wall of the sealing plate 202, thereby ensuring the seal between the first connecting tube 201 and the sealing plate 202.

[0026] The specific implementation method is as follows: through the cooperation between the storage tank 101, the heating component 104, and the stirring component 105, the device has additional stirring and heating functions, which is of great significance for improving production efficiency and ensuring product quality through reasonable use;

[0027] By monitoring the pressure through the pressure gauge 106, leakage problems in the tank or joints can be discovered in time to prevent material loss and environmental pollution.

[0028] Working principle: When the food production material tank is used, the internal passage of the first connecting pipe 201 is blocked by the sealing piece 202, and then the interior of the inflation chamber 204 is inflated by the cooperation among the air pump 213, the electric-controlled air release valve 214, the conduit 212, the one-way valve 211, the second connecting pipe 208, and the air pipe 207, so that the sealing strip 203 expands and deforms to squeeze the outer wall of the sealing piece 202, thereby ensuring the seal between the first connecting pipe 201 and the sealing piece 202. When the internal passage of the first connecting pipe 201 needs to be opened, it is only necessary to discharge the air in the inflation chamber 204 through the electric-controlled air release valve 214, and then rotate the sealing piece 202 through the cooperation between the motor 210 and the rotating shaft 205. The simple internal structure of the sealing mechanism 2 solves the problem of fast opening and closing, which requires extra time to wait for the valve to be fully opened or closed for each operation, resulting in low production efficiency.
