Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vinegar production technology, specifically a steaming device for vinegar production. Background Technology

[0002] Vinegar, with its sour and mellow taste and fragrant and mild aroma, is an indispensable condiment in cooking. Its main components are acetic acid and higher alcohols. Vinegar production can be divided into two categories based on raw material processing: raw vinegar is made from grains that have not undergone steaming or gelatinization; vinegar made from grains that have undergone steaming and gelatinization is called cooked vinegar. The steaming process is particularly important in the production of cooked vinegar. Current technology typically uses a steaming cylinder or tubing for steaming, where the material is placed inside the cylinder and high-temperature steam is directly introduced through a pipe. After steaming, the cylinder is left open for cooling. However, existing steaming devices cannot handle the water droplets generated during cooling, resulting in residue at the bottom of the device. Furthermore, the used cylinder is difficult to clean, requiring significant manpower. Therefore, there is a need to develop a steaming device for vinegar production that facilitates the cleaning of cooling water droplets, washing, and cylinder replacement. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the above technical problems, this utility model provides a steaming device for vinegar production that facilitates the cleaning of cooling water droplets, washing, and replacement of the material cylinder. This solves the problems of existing steaming devices being unable to handle water droplets generated during the cooling process, resulting in water droplets remaining at the bottom of the device, and the material cylinder being difficult to clean after use, requiring a lot of manpower for processing.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a steaming device for vinegar production, comprising a steaming cylinder, the lower end of which is fixedly connected to a support plate and the upper end of which is detachably connected to a flange cover. A support ring is fixedly connected to the lower part of the steaming cylinder, and a material cylinder is arranged above the support ring. A water storage hopper is detachably connected to the bottom of the material cylinder. A drain plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the water storage hopper and a water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the lower end. A telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the flange cover, and the output end of the telescopic cylinder passes through the flange cover and is fixedly connected to a push plate. The push plate is slidably disposed inside the material cylinder. A steam main pipe is fixedly connected to the wall of the steaming cylinder, and several connecting pipes are fixedly connected to the steam main pipe. The connecting pipes communicate with a steam ring pipe. The upper end of the steam main pipe is fixedly connected to a steam horizontal pipe through a pipe end flange. Several steam straight pipes are fixedly connected below the steam horizontal pipe and extend into the material cylinder through the push plate.

[0005] Furthermore, the lower end of the steam pipe is not sealed.

[0006] Furthermore, several air outlet pipes are fixedly connected to the flange cover, and flange lifting lugs are fixedly connected to the top of the flange cover.

[0007] Furthermore, a steam generator is installed outside the steam cylinder, and the output end of the steam generator is connected to the steam main pipe. The steam main pipe passes through the cylinder wall and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steam cylinder. A steam ring pipe is installed outside the material cylinder, and a ring pipe support plate is installed below the steam ring pipe. The ring pipe support plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steam cylinder, and a circular hole is provided on the ring pipe support plate for the steam main pipe to pass through.

[0008] Furthermore, the output end of the telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the push plate via a connecting plate.

[0009] Furthermore, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to one side of the water storage hopper, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the lower part of the inner wall of the steaming cylinder. The other end of the connecting rod is slidably sleeved on the rotating shaft, and a limit plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, a door is hinged to the steam cylinder, and a material trough is provided in the lower part of the steam cylinder, with the material trough placed above the support plate.

[0012] Furthermore, handles are fixedly connected to both sides of the water storage hopper.

[0013] Furthermore, a support leg is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate.

[0014] This utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0015] This invention distinguishes between the steaming cylinder and the material cylinder, allowing the material cylinder to be removed separately for cleaning or replacement. The steam ring pipe and steam straight pipe provide more comprehensive heat supply.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] like Figure 1 The steaming device for vinegar production shown includes a steaming cylinder 1. The lower end of the steaming cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to a support plate 2, and the upper end is detachably connected to a flange cover 4. A support ring 8 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the steaming cylinder 1. A material cylinder 7 is arranged above the support ring 8. A water storage hopper 13 is detachably connected to the bottom of the material cylinder 7. A drain plate 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the water storage hopper 13, and a water outlet pipe 19 is fixedly connected to the lower end. A telescopic cylinder 6 is fixedly connected to the flange cover 4. The output end of the telescopic cylinder 6 passes through the flange cover 4 and is fixedly connected to a push plate 9. The push plate 9 is slidably arranged inside the material cylinder 7. A steam main pipe 23 is fixedly connected to the wall of the steaming cylinder 1. Several connecting pipes 27 are fixedly connected to the steam main pipe 23. The connecting pipes 27 are connected to a steam ring pipe 26. The upper end of the steam main pipe 23 is fixedly connected to a steam horizontal pipe 24 through a pipe end flange 28. Several steam straight pipes 29 are fixedly connected to the lower part of the steam horizontal pipe 24. The steam straight pipes 29 pass through the push plate 9 and extend into the material cylinder 7.

[0020] To facilitate the discharge of steam and to ensure that the material inside the cylinder 7 is heated more thoroughly, the lower end of the steam straight pipe 29 is not sealed.

[0021] To facilitate the discharge of steam from the device and prevent excessive pressure inside the steam cylinder 1, and to facilitate the disassembly of the flange cover 4, several steam outlet pipes 18 are fixedly connected to the flange cover 4, and flange lifting lugs 5 are fixedly connected to the top of the flange cover 4.

[0022] To facilitate steam introduction and stabilize the positions of the steam main pipe 23 and the steam ring pipe 26, a steam generator 22 is installed outside the steam cylinder 1. The output end of the steam generator 22 is connected to the steam main pipe 23. The steam main pipe 23 passes through the cylinder wall of the steam cylinder 1 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steam cylinder 1. The steam ring pipe 26 is located outside the feed cylinder 7. A ring pipe support plate 25 is installed below the steam ring pipe 26. The ring pipe support plate 25 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steam cylinder 1. A round hole is provided on the ring pipe support plate 25 for the steam main pipe 23 to pass through.

[0023] In order to increase the pressure area, the control of the output end of the telescopic cylinder 6 on the push plate 9 is increased. The output end of the telescopic cylinder 6 is fixedly connected to the push plate 9 through the connecting plate 10.

[0024] To facilitate the separation of the water storage hopper 13 and the material cylinder 7, and to prevent the water storage hopper 13 from falling and causing unnecessary damage, a connecting rod 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the water storage hopper 13, and a rotating shaft 16 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the inner wall of the steaming cylinder 1. The other end of the connecting rod 15 is slidably sleeved on the rotating shaft 16, and a limit plate 17 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft 16.

[0025] To facilitate the removal of the steamed material, a door is hinged to the steaming cylinder 1, and a material trough 21 is provided in the lower part of the steaming cylinder 1, which is placed above the support plate 2.

[0026] To facilitate the extraction of cooling water accumulated in the water storage tank 13, a valve 20 is installed at the output end of the water outlet pipe 19.

[0027] In order to fix the water storage hopper 13 during the steaming process, the bottom of the material cylinder 7 is fixedly connected with a buckle.

[0028] To facilitate the disassembly of the water storage tank 13, handles 14 are fixedly connected to both sides of the water storage tank 13.

[0029] To ensure the overall stability of the device, support legs 3 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 2.

[0030] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0031] During the steaming process, the flange cover 4, along with the push plate 9, is lifted using hoisting equipment until the push plate 9 contacts the steam horizontal pipe 24. Suitable material is then poured into the material cylinder 7. The push plate 9 and flange cover 4 are then lowered and locked. The steam generator 22 is turned on, allowing steam to enter the connecting pipe 27, steam ring pipe 26, steam horizontal pipe 24, and steam straight pipe 29 along the steam main pipe 23. During steaming, steam exits from the bottom of the steam straight pipe 29, flows through the material in the material cylinder 7, and then leaves the device through the exhaust pipe 18. Cooling water droplets collect and flow into the water storage hopper 13 via the drain plate 12. After steaming is complete, the steam generator 22 is turned off, the hatch is opened, and the hot air is allowed to dissipate. The valve 20 is then opened to draw the cooling water from the water storage hopper 13 through the water outlet pipe 19. After drawing the water, the handle 14 is used to pull down the water storage hopper 13, disengaging the water storage hopper 13 from the inner wall of the material cylinder 7. Rotate the water storage hopper 13 towards the hatch along the rotating shaft 16, causing the water storage hopper 13 and the drain plate 12 to rotate out. At this time, the bottom of the material cylinder 7 is unsupported, and the steamed material falls under the influence of gravity. At the same time, the telescopic cylinder 6 is opened, pushing the push plate 9 to move down along the direction of the steam straight pipe 29, accelerating the material to leave the material cylinder 7. After the material falls, it falls into the material trough 21. After collection, the material trough 21 is taken out from the hatch. During cleaning, the flange cover 4 and the telescopic cylinder 6 can be raised by connecting the hoisting equipment and the flange lifting lug 5 for cleaning. If further cleaning or replacement of the material cylinder 7 is required, the pipe end flange 28 can be removed first, the flange cover 4 can be lifted, and the steam horizontal pipe 24 and steam straight pipe 29 hanging on the push plate 9 can be lifted together until they are out of the range of the steam cylinder 1. Then, by connecting the hoisting equipment and the material cylinder lifting lug 11, the material cylinder 7 can be lifted away from the range of the steam cylinder 1 from above, and then the material cylinder 7 can be further cleaned or replaced.
