Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a cooling device for aquatic feed production, and more particularly to a cooling device for aquatic feed production. Background Technology

[0002] Aquatic feed is specifically designed for aquatic animals (such as fish, shrimp, crabs, shellfish, etc.) to meet their nutritional needs for growth, development, and maintaining health. There are many types of aquatic feed, which can be classified into various categories according to different standards such as raw materials, form, and purpose. For example, according to different raw materials, aquatic feed can be divided into plant-based feed (such as soybean meal, corn flour, etc.), animal-based feed (such as fish meal, shrimp meal, etc.), and additives such as minerals and vitamins; according to different forms, it can be divided into powdered feed, pelleted feed, extruded feed, etc.; according to different uses, it can be divided into fish feed, shrimp feed, crab feed, shellfish feed, etc.

[0003] In the feed processing process, in order to ensure the subsequent processing needs of aquatic feed, cooling is usually a necessary step after processes such as pelleting and extrusion, to provide a suitable feed state for subsequent packaging, storage and other stages. In the cooling process, the aquatic feed is often cooled directly by stirring equipment to turn it over.

[0004] Currently, in the cooling process of aquatic feed production, the cooling equipment for aquatic feed has a slow cooling speed, which greatly reduces the production efficiency of aquatic feed. Moreover, most of the heat from aquatic feed is directly discharged to the outside, which is not convenient for heat recovery and reuse, and the discharge efficiency is low. Utility Model Content

[0040] The main shell 1 includes a shell 11 and supporting legs 12. The supporting legs 12 are distributed in a triangular pattern on the bottom surface of the shell 11. The supporting legs 12 stably support the shell 11, effectively improving the placement stability of the shell 11.

[0041] The bottom surface of the housing 11 is fixedly connected to a feed pipe 5, and a valve is installed at the end of the feed pipe 5.

[0042] The lifting and sealing assembly 2 includes a hydraulic cylinder 21, a lifting seat 22, a shell cover 23, and a guide part 24. The hydraulic cylinder 21 is fixedly installed on the right side surface of the housing 11. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the lifting seat 22. The shell cover 23 is fixedly installed on the side surface of the lifting seat 22. A sealing cylinder 25 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the shell cover 23. The guide part 24 is fixedly installed on the front and rear surfaces of the housing 11. When the hydraulic cylinder 21 is activated, it pushes the fixedly installed lifting seat 22 to move. The lifting seat 22 drives the fixedly installed shell cover 23 to move.

The heat-conducting shell 61 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom side of the shell 11. The outer surface of the heat-conducting shell 61 is provided with a winding groove 62 for winding the heat exchange tube 63. The heat exchange tube 63 is wound in the winding groove 62. One end of the heat exchange tube 63 is fixedly connected to the drain pipe 66, and the other end of the heat exchange tube 63 is fixedly connected to the water inlet pipe 65. A heat-conducting strip 64 is installed on the outer surface of the heat exchange tube 63.

[0046] In use, the heat exchange tube 63 is wound and placed in the winding groove 62. The two ends of the heat exchange tube 63 are connected to the water inlet pipe 65 and the drain pipe 66 respectively. Cooling water enters through the water inlet pipe 65 and carries away the heat around the aquatic feed through the heat exchange tube 63. The water is discharged through the drain pipe 66 and the discharged hot water is used for subsequent domestic and other uses, which facilitates the reuse of heat, reduces costs, greatly removes heat from the aquatic feed, effectively improves the cooling effect of the aquatic feed, and facilitates the reuse of heat in the future.

[0047] The number of heat-conducting strips 64 is several, and the several heat-conducting strips 64 are evenly distributed on the outer peripheral surface of the heat exchange tube 63. The two ends of the heat exchange tube 63 are respectively connected to the water inlet pipe 65 and the drain pipe 66 installed on the surface of the shell 11.

[0048] The stirring assembly 4 includes a servo motor 41, a stirring shaft 42, a stirring rod 43, and a stirring scraper 44. The servo motor 41 is fixedly installed on the top side surface of the shell cover 23. The output end of the servo motor 41 is connected to the stirring shaft 42. The stirring rod 43 is fixedly installed on the side surface of the stirring shaft 42. The stirring scraper 44 is fixedly connected to the end of the stirring rod 43.

[0049] The number of stirring rods 43 is several, and the several stirring rods 43 are symmetrically distributed about the stirring shaft 42. The number of stirring scrapers 44 is two, and the length of the stirring scrapers 44 is equal to the length of the heat-conducting shell 61. The stirring scrapers 44 are in contact with the inner wall of the heat-conducting shell 61.

[0050] In this technical solution, the servo motor 41 drives the stirring shaft 42 to rotate, and the stirring shaft 42 drives the stirring rod 43 fixedly installed on the side surface to rotate. The stirring rod 43 drives the stirring scraper 44 fixedly connected to the side surface to cooperate in stirring. At the same time, the stirring tube plate cleans the inner wall of the heat-conducting shell 61 to avoid the heat-conducting shell 61 from sticking and leaving residue, which facilitates stirring and effectively stirs the aquatic feed, preventing the aquatic feed from accumulating and the heat from not dissipating well, thus effectively improving the cooling effect of the aquatic feed.

[0051] The circuits, electronic components, and modules involved are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The content protected by this application does not involve any improvement to the software and methods.
