[0002] Currently, in order to further process kumquats, the fruit can be sliced ​​and made into preserves. The production process of preserves usually requires a soaking process to make the preserves more delicious.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN220831779U discloses a soaking device for fresh fruit preparation. This device uses stirring rods of different specifications to agitate the fresh fruit and sugar solution in different parts of the soaking tank, accelerating the movement of sugar molecules and allowing the fresh fruit to absorb the sugar evenly to meet sweetness requirements and ensure soaking quality. However, this device has certain drawbacks in actual use. For example, the density of sugar solution is usually high, while the density of fresh fruit is low. If the sugar solution concentration is high or the sugar solution lacks fluidity, the buoyancy of the fresh fruit in the liquid is insufficient, causing it to easily sink to the bottom of the tank, thus preventing it from absorbing the sugar solution evenly. Therefore, this invention proposes a multi-functional sugar soaking machine to address these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a multifunctional sugar-soaking machine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A multifunctional sugar-soaking machine includes a sugar-soaking cylinder and a cover plate. The cover plate covers the upper end of the sugar-soaking cylinder.

All sets of stirring blades are inclined. A drive mechanism for driving the lead screw sleeve to slide is installed inside the sugar-soaking cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a reciprocating lead screw rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder, the lead screw sleeve being threadedly connected to the threaded section of the reciprocating lead screw, and the outer wall of the lead screw sleeve having a sliding groove.

The inner wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder is fixedly connected to a limiting rod, and the lead screw sleeve is slidably connected to the outer wall of the limiting rod.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder is rotatably connected to two sets of drive wheels with different radii, and the two sets of drive wheels are connected to each other by a drive belt.

[0010] Preferably, the two sets of transmission wheels are coaxially and fixedly connected to the rotating rod and the reciprocating lead screw, respectively, and two sets of handles are fixedly connected to the end face of the cover plate.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Reference Figure 1-3A multifunctional sugar-soaking machine includes a sugar-soaking cylinder 1 and a cover plate 2. The cover plate 2 covers the upper end of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1. A feed pipe 3 is installed on the outer wall of the cover plate 2. A discharge pipe 4 is installed on the side wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1. Multiple sets of temperature control plates 7 are evenly spaced on the inner wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1. Multiple sets of stirring rods 9 are rotatably connected inside the sugar-soaking cylinder 1. A lead screw sleeve 12 is slidably connected inside the sugar-soaking cylinder 1. A sleeve plate 13 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the lead screw sleeve 12. Multiple sets of stirring blades 14 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sleeve plate 13. The multiple sets of stirring blades 14 are all inclined. A drive mechanism for driving the lead screw sleeve 12 to slide is installed inside the sugar-soaking cylinder 1. The device includes a reciprocating screw 10 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1, a screw sleeve 12 threadedly connected to the threaded section of the reciprocating screw 10, and a sliding groove 15 on the outer wall of the screw sleeve 12; the stirring blade 14 is inclined and rotates when driven by the reciprocating screw 10 to slide. Due to the inclined angle design, the interaction force between the liquid flow and the stirring blade 14 will generate a tangential force, thereby causing the stirring blade 14 to rotate during the sliding process, so that the fresh fruit can be continuously stirred and flowed in the liquid, preventing it from settling at the bottom, thereby ensuring that the fresh fruit is evenly soaked and the sugar solution penetrates.

[0021] The inner wall of the sleeve plate 13 is rotatably connected to the slide groove 15 and is in close contact with the inner wall of the slide groove 15. The inner wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 8. Multiple sets of stirring rods 9 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 8 at equal intervals. The inner wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 11. The screw sleeve 12 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the limiting rod 11. The outer wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1 is rotatably connected to two sets of transmission wheels 5 with different radii. The two sets of transmission wheels 5 are connected to each other through the transmission belt 6. The two sets of transmission wheels 5 are coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating rod 8 and the reciprocating screw 10, respectively. The end face of the cover plate 2 is fixedly connected to two sets of handles. The side wall of the sugar-soaking cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to the servo motor. The output shaft of the servo motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the reciprocating screw 10. The rotation of the rotating rod 8 drives the stirring rod 9 to stir, ensuring that the sugar liquid and fresh fruit in the entire sugar-soaking cylinder 1 are evenly stirred.

[0022] In this invention, when the device is used, fresh fruit and sugar solution are added into the sugar soaking cylinder 1 through the feed pipe 3 to ensure that the sugar solution completely covers the fresh fruit. A suitable sugar solution concentration and temperature are set, and the temperature inside the sugar soaking cylinder 1 is adjusted through the temperature control plate 7 to ensure that the sugar solution and fresh fruit are soaked at a suitable temperature.

[0023] The servo motor is then started, driving the reciprocating screw 10 to slide along its threaded section, which in turn drives the screw sleeve 12 to slide along the slide groove 15. When the screw sleeve 12 slides, it is connected to the sleeve plate 13. The stirring blade 14 on the sleeve plate 13 will rotate under the influence of tangential force under the action of the liquid. The inclined design of the stirring blade 14 makes the flow direction of the liquid interact with the movement direction of the blade, thereby driving the stirring blade 14 to rotate and drive the sugar solution and fresh fruit at the bottom of the sugar soaking cylinder 1 to be evenly stirred, promoting the flow and stirring of the fresh fruit in the sugar solution and preventing it from settling at the bottom. Through the movement of the liquid and the action of the tangential force of the stirring blade 14, the fresh fruit can be continuously and evenly coated with the sugar solution, ensuring that it is evenly soaked. As the stirring blade 14 rotates continuously, the direction and speed of the liquid flow remain uniform, thereby improving the penetration effect of the sugar solution molecules on the fresh fruit.

[0024] The transmission wheel 5, when used in conjunction with the transmission wheel 5, can synchronously drive the rotating rod 8 to rotate, thereby driving multiple sets of stirring rods 9 to perform stirring operations. During the stirring process, the sugar solution is stirred to generate turbulence, which helps the sugar solution to penetrate into the interior of the fresh fruit more effectively. After the soaking and stirring process is completed, the sugar solution and the processed fresh fruit are discharged through the discharge pipe 4.

[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
