Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of wine production and processing, in particular to a distillation tank for the production and processing of stewed wine. Background Art

[0002] Munguo liquor, also known as "small pot liquor," is made primarily from shelled grains such as sorghum, red rice, rice, corn, wheat, barley, buckwheat, highland barley, and glutinous rice. Traditionally, the production apparatus consists of a conical upper pot, a wooden steamer, a lower pot, and a wood stove. During the distillation process, water is added to the lower pot to generate steam. The finished mash is placed in the wooden steamer, with a certain amount of space between the wooden tray and the lower pot water surface to allow for rapid steam rise. The upper pot is covered with cold water, and the water is frequently replaced during the distillation process to prevent the upper and lower pots from becoming too hot to cool the alcohol molecules. After the wood stove is turned off, open the top pot and take out the wine tank; in the production and processing of stewed wine in the existing technology, the steam generated by the distillation tank often faces the problem of poor cooling effect during the condensation process. The traditional design may lack sufficient condensation area, resulting in the steam unable to fully condense into wine, and part of the steam directly escapes, causing wine loss. The cooling medium in traditional stewed wine production equipment needs to be replaced regularly. This process requires manual operation, and the cooling medium is prone to temperature rise due to long storage time, which affects the heat exchange efficiency and thus reduces the condensation efficiency. For this reason, we proposed a distillation tank for the production and processing of stewed wine. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] See also Figure 1-4 A distillation tank for producing and processing steamed wine comprises a condensation tank 1 and a distillation tank 2 nested together, wherein the condensation tank 1 is nested on the top of the distillation tank 2, and further comprises:

[0033] The wine receiving tank 3 is fixedly arranged at the center of the bottom end of the condensing tank 1, and a wine outlet pipe 15 extending from the outside of the condensing tank 1 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the wine receiving tank 3 for receiving and discharging the stored wine;

[0034] A casing assembly is connected between the condenser 1 and the distillation tank 2 for conveying steam into the condenser 1, wherein the casing assembly includes a gas pipe 4 connected to the top of the condenser 1;

[0035] The cooling cone 5 is in an inverted cone shape and is fixed to the top of the condensation tank 1 and is located directly above the wine receiving tank 3;

[0036] A circulating water cooling structure is provided in the cooling cone 5, which is used to condense the steam transported by the gas pipe 4 to the condensation tank 1, and to drip the condensed wine into the wine receiving tank 3 for storage.

[0037] The bottom tip of the cooling cone 5 is located just above the center of the top end of the wine receiving tank 3 .

[0038] A slag trough is provided below the cavity of the distillation tank 2 for discharging waste. A water storage chamber and a plurality of heating rods are fixedly provided at the bottom of the distillation tank 2 for heating the grain in the distillation tank 2. A sleeve group is connected to the bottom of one side of the distillation tank 2 and extends upward to be connected to the top of the condensation tank 1. The sleeve group is composed of a plurality of hard through pipes connected together by pipe joints to form a detachable sleeve group. The water in the water storage chamber is heated by the heating rods, which indirectly heats the grain in the distillation tank and promotes the distillation process. The waste generated is then discharged through the slag trough provided below the cavity of the distillation tank. The sleeve group adopts a detachable design, which is convenient for cleaning and maintenance when necessary, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the equipment. At the same time, the heat inside the distillation tank 2 can also conduct heat to the bottom of the upper condensation tank 1, so that the wine receiving tank 3 can discard the first wine with a high methanol content through the wine outlet pipe 15, while the normal wine remains in the wine receiving tank 3 for repeated distillation, thereby obtaining high-quality stewed pot wine.

[0039] A cold water chamber 6 is provided inside the cooling cone 5, and a condensation channel 10 is provided at the bottom of the cooling cone 5 corresponding to the side close to the air pipe 4. The condensation channel 10 is provided below the bottom side of the cooling cone 5 corresponding to the cold water chamber 6, and the outer surface of the condensation channel 10 is the inclined inner wall of the cold water chamber 6. The air pipe 4 extends into the top of the condensation tank 1 and is connected with the condensation channel 10. The condensation channel 10 is inclined to match the inclined side of the bottom of the cooling cone 5. The bottom side wall of the cooling cone 5 corresponds to the bottom end of the condensation channel 10 and is bent and opened, and the bottom end opening of the condensation channel 10 is located above the wine receiving tank 3.

[0040] The circulating water cooling structure includes a water injection channel 11, a water discharge channel 12, a water injection port 13 and a water extraction port 14. The cooling cone 5 is provided with a water injection channel 11 located below the inclined side of the cold water chamber 6 on the side away from the condensation channel 10, and the cooling cone 5 is provided with a water discharge channel 12 located below the inclined side of the cold water chamber 6. The water injection channel 11 and the water discharge channel 12 are both inclined to fit the inclined side of the bottom of the cooling cone 5. The water injection channel 11 and the water injection port 13 are connected to the cold water chamber 6. The outside of the top of the condensation tank 1 A water injection port 13 and a water extraction port 14 connected to the water injection channel 11 and the water discharge channel 12 are respectively fixed, and valve parts are fixed on the water injection port 13 and the water extraction port 14. Cold water can be injected into the cold water chamber 6 through the water injection port 13 and the water injection channel 11. After the cold water chamber 6 is filled with cold water, the water extraction port 14 can be opened to extract the cold water in the cold water chamber 6 through the water discharge channel 12. In this process, cold water is continuously injected into the cold water chamber 6 through the water injection port 13 and the water injection channel 11 to form a cold water circulation.

[0041] The circulating water cooling structure also includes a servo motor 7, a rotating shaft 8 and a water-diverting bending rod 9. The servo motor 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the condensation tank 1, and the output shaft of the servo motor 7 extends into the cold water chamber 6 and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 8. The water-diverting bending rod 9 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 8. The water-diverting bending rod 9 is an isosceles triangle that fits the internal space of the cold water chamber 6. Driving the servo motor 7 to drive the rotating shaft 8 and the water-diverting bending rod 9 to rotate can make the cold water inside the cold water chamber 6 flow, so that the cold water near the condensation channel 10 can be quickly alternated.

[0042] Working principle: The grain raw materials for stewed wine are placed in the distillation tank 2 for stewing. At the same time, water is injected into the water storage chamber at the bottom of the distillation tank 2 and multiple groups of heating rods are opened to heat the grain raw materials. The good grains form mash and generate heated steam which is input into the condensation tank 1 through the sleeve group. At this time, cold water can be injected into the cold water chamber 6 through the water injection port 13 and the water injection channel 11. After the cold water in the cold water chamber 6 is filled with cold water, the water extraction port 14 can be opened to extract the cold water in the cold water chamber 6 through the water discharge channel 12. In this process, cold water is continuously injected into the cold water chamber 6 through the water injection port 13 and the water injection channel 11 to form a cold water circulation. At this time, the steam flows through the condensation channel 10 through the gas pipe 4, and the inside of the condensation channel 10 is cooled by the cold water in the cold water chamber 6, thereby condensing the steam entering the condensation channel 10. The wine is formed into liquid wine, and drips along the inclined inner wall of the condensation channel 10 into the wine receiving tank 3 for storage. The wine receiving tank 3 can discard the head wine with a high methanol content through the wine outlet pipe 15, while the normal wine remains in the wine receiving tank 3 for repeated distillation, thereby obtaining high-quality stewed pot wine; through the water injection channel 11, the water discharge channel 12, the water injection port 13 and the water extraction port 14, a cold water circulation is formed inside the cold water chamber 6, thereby preventing the water temperature in the cold water chamber 6 from gradually rising, resulting in the steam inside the condensation channel 10 not being able to quickly cool into liquid wine, and at the same time driving the servo motor 7 to drive the rotating shaft 8 and the water diverting bending rod 9 to rotate, so that the cold water inside the cold water chamber 6 can be in a flowing state, so that the cold water near the condensation channel 10 can be quickly alternated, thereby ensuring the cooling effect inside the condensation channel 10, that is, ensuring that the steam in the condensation channel 10 is continuously condensed into liquid wine;

[0043] Through the design of the cooling cone 5 and the circulating water cooling structure, if some steam fails to be completely cooled in the condensation channel 10 and flows into the interior of the condensation tank 1, the cold water in the cold water chamber 6 will have a low-temperature effect on the entire cooling cone 5, and the steam filled in the condensation tank 1 will also be condensed into wine at the bottom side wall of the cooling cone 5, and can drip into the wine receiving tank 3 along the inclined side wall of the cooling cone 5, greatly improving the adequacy of wine collection and steam condensation.

[0044] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
