Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit juice processing technology, specifically to a concentrated fruit juice mixing tank. Background Technology

[0002] Concentrated juice mixing tanks are key equipment used in the juice production process to mix and blend concentrated juice with other ingredients.

[0003] A search revealed that the patent number CN220918966U, entitled "Utility Model of a Blending Tank for Juice Production," includes a support platform and a support column. Research and analysis revealed that although the crushing component retains and crushes larger pieces of fruit pulp during use, reducing the graininess of the juice and further improving its taste, and does not waste residual juice from the fruit pulp, it also has the following disadvantages to some extent.

[0004] For example, the lack of a weighing function leads to an unstable ratio of fruit particles to other ingredients during each mixing process, resulting in differences in taste, concentration, and nutritional components between different batches of juice, affecting the consistency of product quality. Furthermore, the lack of a cleaning function leaves juice, fruit particles, and other substances on the surface of the stirring rod after mixing. If these residues are not rinsed promptly, they can breed bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms, contaminating the next production run. To address these technical issues, we have designed a concentrated juice mixing tank. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a concentrated fruit juice mixing tank with the advantages of weighing and cleaning functions, which solves the problems of existing mixing tanks that cannot accurately control the amount of fruit particles added during use, and that the surface of the stirring rod cannot be cleaned after mixing.

An auger conveyor 16 is connected to the right side of the top of the inner cavity of the housing 1 via a connecting rod.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 Stirring rods 17 are riveted to both sides, front and rear of the rotating rod 6. Scrapers 18 are bolted to the opposite ends of the stirring rods 17. By setting scrapers 18, the fruit particles and juice attached to the inner wall of the cylinder 3 can be scraped and cleaned, further improving the cleaning effect. The opposite side of the scraper 18 is in contact with the inner wall of the cylinder 3.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The right side of the vertical pipe 10 is connected to a nozzle 19, and the right end of the nozzle 19 is connected to the cylinder 3. A one-way valve 20 is fixedly installed on the surface of the nozzle 19. By setting the one-way valve 20, the liquid in the inner cavity of the cylinder 3 will not flow back into the inner cavity of the vertical pipe 10. The water inlet of the water pump 8 is connected to a water pumping pipe 21, and the left end of the water pumping pipe 21 extends to the left side of the box 1.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top left side of the material box 15 is connected to a feeding pipe, and the front side of the box body 1 is connected to a sealing plate by bolts. By setting the sealing plate, it is convenient for users to inspect and maintain the components inside the box body 1.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 The top right side of the cylinder 3 is connected to a liquid addition pipe 22. The right end of the liquid addition pipe 22 passes through the box 1 and is connected to a flow meter 23. By setting the flow meter 23, the flow rate of the juice can be monitored in real time, which facilitates subsequent mixing operations.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 The bottom right side of the cylinder 3 is connected to a discharge pipe 24. The right end of the discharge pipe 24 passes through the box 1 and is connected to a first discharge valve 25.

[0030] In use, connect the device to an external power supply and controller. Connect the right side of the flow meter 23 to the water supply pipe. Add an appropriate amount of fruit granules into the inner cavity of the material box 15 through the feeding pipe. The juice is transported to the inner cavity of the cylinder 3 through the flow meter 23 and the liquid supply pipe 22. The flow meter 23 monitors the juice flow rate in real time. The external controller sets the fruit granule discharge rate according to the juice flow rate. At this time, the external controller controls the auger conveyor 16 to operate. The auger conveyor 16 transports the fruit granules in the inner cavity of the material box 15 to the inner cavity of the weighing cylinder 14 through the second discharge valve 27. The tension sensor 12 monitors the weight of the weighing cylinder 14 in real time. When the tension sensor 12 detects that the weight reaches the preset threshold of the external controller, the external controller stops the auger conveyor 16 from working. At the same time, the external controller controls the electric valve 26 to open, and the weighed fruit granules are discharged into the inner cavity of the cylinder 3. Then, the external controller controls the servo motor. 5. When the servo motor 5 is in operation, the output end of the servo motor 5 drives the rotating rod 6 and the stirring rod 17 to rotate, thereby stirring and mixing the juice and fruit particles. After mixing, the juice is discharged to the outside of the cylinder 3 through the discharge pipe 24 and the first discharge valve 25. When it is necessary to clean the surface of the stirring rod 17, the water pump 21 is connected to the external water tank. The external controller controls the water pump 8 to operate. The water pump 8 draws clean water through the water pump 21. The clean water is delivered to the vertical pipe 10 through the distribution pipe 9. The vertical pipe 10 delivers the clean water to the nozzle 19. The nozzle 19 sprays the clean water onto the surface of the stirring rod 17 to rinse it. At the same time, the external controller controls the servo motor 5 to operate. The output end of the servo motor 5 drives the rotating rod 6 and the stirring rod 17 to rotate, further improving the cleaning effect. The scraper 18 scrapes and cleans the fruit particles attached to the inner wall of the cylinder 3. The water is discharged to the outside of the cylinder 3 through the discharge pipe 24 and the first discharge valve 25.
