DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this utility model shall have the usual meanings understood by persons of ordinary skill in the field to which this utility model belongs. The words "first", "second" and similar terms used in this utility model do not indicate any order, quantity or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components. Words such as "include" or "comprise" mean that the elements or objects appearing before the word include the elements or objects listed after the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Words such as "connect" or "connected" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect. "Up", "down", "left", "right" and the like are only used to indicate relative positional relationships. When the absolute position of the object being described changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.

[0032] In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present invention clear and concise, the present invention omits detailed descriptions of known functions and known components.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a honey concentrating device, which includes: a barrel 10, an electric heating component 20, an agitator, a negative pressure pump 50, a cooling component 30, a collecting tank 40, and a telescopic cylinder 60.

[0034] A cover 13 is provided at the upper end of the cylinder 10, and a feed port 11 and a suction interface 14 are arranged on the cover 13. A discharge port 12 is arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 10. Honey that needs to be concentrated enters the cylinder 10 through the feed port 11, and the honey that has been concentrated is discharged through the discharge port 12.

[0035] The telescopic cylinder 60 is installed in the cover body 13, and the telescopic rod 61 of the telescopic cylinder 60 extends vertically into the barrel 10. The electric heating component 20 is arranged at the lower end of the telescopic rod 61. The position of the electric heating component 20 is adjusted by the telescopic cylinder 60 so that the electric heating component 20 is close to the liquid surface of the honey for heating the surface of the honey.

[0036] The electric heating component 20 includes an annular retaining body 42 and electric heating wires 41 arranged in the annular retaining body 42 . The electric heating wires 41 are arranged with longitudinal ribs staggered to form a mesh allowing fluid to pass through.

[0037] When the electric heating element 20 is used to heat honey, the steam generated by the evaporation of the honey can flow directly upward through the mesh formed by the electric heating wires 41 of the electric heating element 20. As it passes through the mesh, the heating effect of the electric heating wires 41 accelerates the steam's rise. The lower end of the telescopic rod 61 is connected to the annular retaining body 42 of the electric heating element 20.

[0038] The agitator includes a motor 81, a shaft 82, and a stirring paddle 70. The motor 81 is mounted below the barrel 10. The lower end of the shaft 82 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 81. The upper end of the shaft 82 extends into the barrel 10 and is located in the honey. The stirring paddle 70 is mounted on the upper end of the shaft 82. As the electric heating element 20 heats the honey, the motor 81 drives the stirring paddle 70 via the shaft 82 to rotate, agitating the honey and promoting the evaporation of the honey and the rise of bubbles in the honey.

[0039] The negative pressure pump 50 is connected to the suction interface 14 through a suction pipe. The negative pressure pump 50 sucks the interior of the barrel 10 into a negative pressure state, so that the honey has a sufficient evaporation amount at a lower temperature.

[0040] The cooling component 30 is arranged above the electric heating component 20. The cooling component 30 cools the steam that moves to the upper part of the cylinder 10, so that the steam is cooled and condensed; the collecting tank 40 is arranged below the cooling component 30 and is located above the electric heating component 20, and the condensed steam water falls into the collecting tank 40.

[0041] The present invention provides a cooling component 30 of a preferred structure, which includes: a cooling pipe 31 and a condensing wall 32; the cooling pipe 31 is spirally bent to form a conical shape, the radial dimension of the lower end of the conical shape is smaller than the radial dimension of the upper end, the cooling wall is configured to be a cone adapted to the cooling pipe 31, and the cooling pipe 31 is arranged on the inner side of the cooling wall, so that the cooling component 30 with a conical structure increases the contact area with the steam and makes the collection tank 40 smaller, which is conducive to the rapid condensation of water vapor. In a more preferred structure, a plurality of drainage grooves 321 are processed on the outer side of the condensing wall 32, and the plurality of drainage grooves 321 extend along the busbar of the condensing wall 32, and the plurality of drainage grooves 321 are arranged circumferentially, so that when the steam encounters the condensing wall 32 and condenses to form condensed water, the condensed water flows down along the drainage grooves 321, which is conducive to the collection tank 40 to collect the condensed water in time.

[0042] In addition, although exemplary embodiments have been described in the present invention, the scope includes any and all embodiments based on the present invention with equivalent elements, modifications, omissions, combinations (e.g., solutions that cross various embodiments), adaptations, or changes. The elements in the claims are to be interpreted broadly based on the language used in the claims and are not limited to the examples described in this specification or during the prosecution of this application, which examples are to be interpreted as non-exclusive.

For example, a person of ordinary skill in the art may use other embodiments when reading the above description.
