Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sterilization machine technology, specifically to an ultra-high temperature sterilization machine. Background Technology

[0002] Ultra-high temperature instantaneous sterilization machine is a device used for instantaneous high-temperature sterilization of liquid or fluid materials. It is widely used in the aseptic and non-aseptic heat treatment of plant extracts, fruit and vegetable juices, tea beverages, syrups and high-viscosity liquid foods. The system is fully automatic, with minimal impact on product flavor and nutritional components, and prevents secondary contamination of the product. The product is pumped into a closed balance tank, preheated to the homogenization temperature for homogenization, then sterilized at ultra-high temperature, and finally cooled to the filling temperature. It can be directly connected to any filling machine and drying tower for low-temperature, medium-temperature, and high-temperature filling and drying. The sterilization is safe, efficient and reliable, and effectively utilizes the heat source to minimize energy consumption. At the same time, the intelligent PLC control eliminates the need for complex manual operation and monitoring. The CIP and SIP system design before and after production meets the cleaning and sterilization requirements of production equipment.

[0003] In the use of the ultra-high temperature instantaneous sterilizer, after the material undergoes heat exchange, it is instantly mixed with clean steam in a specially designed jet heater. After passing through the heat preservation delay tube to reach a certain sterilization time, it quickly enters the high-efficiency cyclone separator for flash evaporation and cooling, thereby ensuring the best flavor, color and high quality of the sterilized material.

[0004] In the steam spraying mixing stage, if the fluid materials are not mixed evenly and not heated sufficiently, it will have many negative impacts on product quality, making it difficult to achieve the ideal sterilization effect, and easily leading to the residue of some microorganisms, affecting the safety and shelf life of the product. Therefore, an ultra-high temperature sterilizer is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0027] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0028] The ultra-high temperature sterilizer includes a drive housing assembly 1, a sterilization assembly 2 installed inside the drive housing assembly 1, a conveying assembly 3 fixedly connected inside the sterilization assembly 2, the sterilization assembly 2 including a feeding cylinder shell 21, an outer spiral blade 22 fixedly connected to the outer side of the feeding cylinder shell 21, a steam channel 24 opened near the upper end of the feeding cylinder shell 21, a steam distribution groove 25 opened inside the feeding cylinder shell 21, an internal pipe 26 fixedly connected near the upper end of the feeding cylinder shell 21, an outlet hole 27 opened on the inner side of the feeding cylinder shell 21 and the internal pipe 26, a stirring cylinder 28 fixedly connected inside the feeding cylinder shell 21, a silicone duckbill valve 29 fixedly connected to the right side of the stirring cylinder 28, and the conveying assembly 3 including a solid column 31, an inner spiral blade 32 fixedly connected to the outer side of the solid column 31.

[0029] As a further implementation of this solution, the drive outer casing assembly 1 includes an insulation cylinder 11. An extension frame 12 is fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the insulation cylinder 11. A lower opening 13 is provided at the lower end of the insulation cylinder 11. The inner side of the insulation cylinder 11 is a hollow structure. The lower opening 13 communicates with the inner side of the insulation cylinder 11. A sealing ring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the lower opening 13. Through the above settings, not only is the smooth flow of fluid materials ensured, but the sealing ring also effectively prevents material leakage, improves the sealing performance and reliability of the equipment, reduces material waste and pollution risks, and further ensures the cleanliness of the production environment and the hygiene and safety of the products.

[0030] As a further implementation of this solution, a discharge pipe 17 is fixedly connected to the right side of the insulation cylinder 11. The inside of the discharge pipe 17 is connected to the inside of the insulation cylinder 11. Through the above setting, the smooth transmission of materials in the equipment is ensured, the residence time of materials in the pipe is reduced, thereby reducing the possibility of microbial growth and further improving the safety and quality of the product.

[0031] As a further implementation of this solution, a drive motor 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the heat preservation cylinder 11, and a first gear 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the main shaft of the drive motor 14. Through the above settings, the relevant components can be driven to rotate, realizing efficient mixing and uniform heating of fluid materials, improving the uniformity and thoroughness of sterilization, significantly reducing microbial residues, and effectively extending the shelf life of the product.

[0032] As a further implementation of this solution, an extension cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the insulation cylinder 11. The extension cylinder 16 is rotatably connected to the feeding cylinder shell 21 through a bearing. The upper end of the insulation cylinder 11 is attached to the outside of the feeding cylinder shell 21 through a sealing ring. Through the above settings, not only is the stable rotation of the feeding cylinder shell 21 ensured, but material leakage is also prevented through the sealing ring, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0033] As a further implementation of this solution, a second gear 23 is fixedly connected near the upper end of the feeding cylinder shell 21. The outer side of the second gear 23 meshes with the outer side of the first gear 15. A sealing ring is fixedly connected to the upper end of the feeding cylinder shell 21. The top of the solid column 31 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the feeding cylinder shell 21. The outer side of the inner spiral blade 32 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the feeding cylinder shell 21. A gap is provided between the outer side of the solid column 31 and the silicone duckbill valve 29. Through the above settings, the fluid material is ensured to be uniformly mixed and fully heated in the equipment, which further improves the sterilization effect and product quality, while reducing the risk of equipment failure and product contamination caused by material leakage.

[0034] Workflow: During assembly, the extension frame 12 is fixed to the external support to support the entire device. The discharge pipe 17 is fixed to the pipe of the receiving box. The steam engine pipe is inserted into the outside of the feeding cylinder shell 21 and is located above the second gear 23. The sealing ring at the upper end of the feeding cylinder shell 21 seals with the steam engine pipe. The feeding cylinder shell 21 is inserted into the source of the fluid, such as inside the container, and the assembly is completed.

[0035] In operation, steam is delivered to the interior of steam channel 24 via a steam generator, and then enters the interior of steam distribution tank 25. Since steam distribution tank 25 is connected to the interior of multiple stirring drums 28, under the action of expansion force, the entire fluid flows out through the stirring drums 28 and the silicone duckbill valve 29, and into the interior of the feeding cylinder shell 21 to sterilize the fluid. Simultaneously, the steam heats the feeding cylinder shell 21, further sterilizing the fluid and improving the comprehensiveness of sterilization. At the same time, when the fluid is flowing, the drive motor 14 is activated, driving the first gear 15 to rotate. The first gear 15, through the second gear 23, drives the feeding cylinder shell 21, the outer spiral blade 22, and the conveying assembly 3 to rotate as a whole. Since the feeding cylinder shell 21, the solid column 31, and the inner spiral blade 32 extend to the fluid storage section, the fluid is transported through the inner spiral blade 3... 2. The fluid is transported and enters the interior of the feeding cylinder shell 21 for sterilization. At the same time, when the stirring drum 28 rotates, it can mix the fluid inside the feeding cylinder shell 21, improving the uniformity of fluid mixing and sterilization. When the fluid approaches the outlet hole 27, it will flow through the outlet hole 27 opened in both the feeding cylinder shell 21 and the internal pipe 26 to the outside of the feeding cylinder shell 21. Since the feeding cylinder shell 21 and the outer spiral blade 22 are set in opposite directions, the outer spiral blade 22 can not only prevent the fluid from falling directly to the lower part of the insulation cylinder 11 and improve the uniformity of contact between the fluid and the outside of the feeding cylinder shell 21, but also transport the fluid downward, allowing it to flow out through the insulation cylinder 11 and the discharge pipe 17, thereby achieving the purpose of sterilizing the fluid.

[0036] After the device stops, the main shaft of the drive motor 14 stops rotating. At this time, the feeding cylinder shell 21 cannot pump the fluid. Meanwhile, the fluid between the insulation cylinder 11 and the feeding cylinder shell 21 will automatically flow out from the discharge pipe 17. This can reduce the residual fluid inside the device and prevent the fluid from accumulating and affecting the cleanliness inside the device.

[0037] Based on the above principles, when the device sterilizes fluids with steam, it not only ensures the uniformity of mixing with the fluids but also improves the uniformity of sterilization, reduces the residue of microorganisms inside the processed fluids, and improves the safety and shelf life of the products.

[0038] Although 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 alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
