The water outlet at one end of the oil outlet pipe is positioned higher than the bottom of the water outlet pipe. Under the stirring action of a drive motor, rotating rod, and paddles, crude oil and water are thoroughly mixed and hydrated, allowing water to fully combine with the colloids in the crude oil, thus improving the hydration efficiency of the crude oil and consequently increasing the processing efficiency of edible oil. This device is also convenient to use. However, according to its disclosed technical solution, existing automated hydration equipment for edible oil has several drawbacks. Firstly, it cannot effectively control the oil-to-water ratio. A low water ratio may result in insufficient impurity removal, while a high water ratio may lead to water waste. Secondly, during oil-water separation, incomplete separation can occur, compromising the processing quality of the edible oil and causing further waste.

[0003] Therefore, how to design an automatic hydration device for edible oil has become the problem we need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic hydration device for edible oil to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. This utility model is reasonably designed, convenient to use, and suitable for the hydration and impurity removal processing of edible oil.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic hydration device for edible oil, comprising a mixing tank and a separating tank. A feeding assembly is installed on the top of the mixing tank, the feeding assembly including a water inlet pipe and an oil inlet pipe. A connecting assembly is installed on the top of the mixing tank, the connecting assembly including a partition sleeve and a motor. A discharging assembly is installed inside the partition sleeve, the discharging assembly including a rotary valve and a rotary valve. A stirring assembly is installed on the mixing tank, the stirring assembly including a motor and a rotating rod. A separating assembly is installed on the separating tank, the separating assembly including a baffle and an oil tank.

[0006] Furthermore, the mixing tank is welded to the top of the dividing tank, the partition sleeve is welded to the top of one side of the mixing tank, the water inlet pipe is welded to the top of one side of the partition sleeve, and the oil inlet pipe is welded to the top of the other side of the partition sleeve.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner side of the partition sleeve is provided with an inner cavity one and an inner cavity two. The water inlet pipe is connected to the mixing tank through the inner cavity one, and the oil inlet pipe is connected to the mixing tank through the inner cavity two.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer side of the rotary valve one is clamped on the inner wall of the inner cavity one, the outer side of the rotary valve two is clamped on the inner wall of the inner cavity two, and the motor one is installed on the outer side of the spacer by bolts.

[0009] Furthermore, one end of the rotary valve is mounted on the inner wall of the inner cavity through a rotating shaft, the other end of the rotary valve passes through the inner cavity and is connected to one end of the rotary valve, and the other end of the rotary valve passes through the inner cavity and is keyed to the output shaft of the motor.

[0010] Furthermore, the second motor is bolted to one side of the mixing box, the rotating rod is mounted inside the mixing box via a bearing, one end of the rotating rod is keyed to the output shaft of the second motor, and a connection port is provided at the bottom of the other side of the mixing box, which is connected to the top of the other side of the sub-box.

[0011] Furthermore, the oil tank is welded to the top of one side of the sub-tank, the baffle is welded to the inner wall of the sub-tank, the baffles are evenly distributed on the inner side of the sub-tank, an oil outlet pipe is welded to one side of the oil tank, a water outlet pipe is welded to one side of the sub-tank, and the water outlet pipe is connected to the bottom of one side of the sub-tank.

[0012] Furthermore, an external switch group is connected to the sub-box, and the switch group is connected to motor one and motor two via wires.

[0013] Beneficial effects: 1. When using this automatic hydration device for edible oil, water and edible oil are introduced into the inner side of the partition through the water inlet pipe and oil inlet pipe, respectively. Motor 1 drives rotary valve 1 and rotary valve 2 to rotate synchronously. Thus, when rotary valve 1 drops a certain amount of water into the inner side of the mixing tank, rotary valve 2 simultaneously drops a corresponding proportion of edible oil into the inner side of the mixing tank. This effectively mixes the edible oil and water in a constant ratio, ensuring that the water can fully separate water-soluble impurities in the edible oil and avoiding waste of water resources due to adding too much water. Motor 2 drives the rotating rod to stir the water and edible oil up and down, and the flow caused by the density difference between edible oil and water greatly improves the mixing efficiency, thereby improving the efficiency of impurity removal from the edible oil.

[0014] 2. When in use, this automatic hydration device for edible oil completes the thorough mixing of water and edible oil, allowing the water to fully blend with the phospholipid impurities in the edible oil before entering the inner side of the dividing tank. The increased cross-section of the dividing tank reduces the flow rate of the mixture. With the layered obstruction of the baffles, the water is blocked and flows downwards, while the edible oil flows upwards on the right side of the baffles. This effectively ensures the complete separation of edible oil and water until the water is discharged from the bottom of the dividing tank through the water outlet pipe, and the edible oil is discharged through the oil outlet pipe on the oil tank. This avoids incomplete oil-water separation, ensures the processing quality of the edible oil, and prevents waste of edible oil.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 3This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic hydration device for edible oil, comprising a mixing tank 1 and a dividing tank 2. A feeding assembly is installed on the top of the mixing tank 1, comprising a water inlet pipe 4 and an oil inlet pipe 5. A connecting assembly is installed on the top of the mixing tank 1, comprising a partition sleeve 3 and a motor 6. A discharging assembly is installed inside the partition sleeve 3, comprising a rotary valve 7 and a rotary valve 8. A stirring assembly is installed on the mixing tank 1, comprising a motor 9 and a rotating rod 10. A separation assembly is installed on the dividing tank 2, comprising a baffle 11 and an oil tank 12. The oil tank 12 is welded to the top of one side of the dividing tank 2. The baffle 11 is welded to the inner wall of the dividing tank 2 and is evenly distributed inside the dividing tank 2. An oil outlet pipe 13 is welded to one side of the oil tank 12. A water outlet pipe 14 is welded to one side of the tank 2. The water outlet pipe 14 is connected to the bottom of one side of the sub-tank 2. An external switch assembly is connected to the sub-tank 2. The switch assembly is connected to motor 6 and motor 9 via wires. After the water and edible oil are fully mixed, the water is fully fused with the phospholipid impurities in the edible oil and enters the inner side of the sub-tank 2. The cross-section of the sub-tank 2 is increased, thereby reducing the flow rate of the mixture. Under the layer-by-layer blocking of the baffle 11, the water is blocked by the baffle 11 and flows downward. The edible oil flows upward on the right side of the baffle 11, thereby effectively ensuring the full separation of edible oil and water. The water is discharged from the bottom of the sub-tank 2 through the water outlet pipe 14, and the edible oil is discharged through the oil outlet pipe 13 on the oil tank 12. This avoids incomplete oil-water separation, ensures the processing quality of edible oil, and avoids waste of edible oil.

[0022] In this embodiment, the mixing tank 1 is welded to the top of the dividing tank 2, the partition sleeve 3 is welded to the top of one side of the mixing tank 1, the water inlet pipe 4 is welded to the top of one side of the partition sleeve 3, and the oil inlet pipe 5 is welded to the top of the other side of the partition sleeve 3. The partition sleeve 3 has an inner cavity 1 and an inner cavity 2. The water inlet pipe 4 is connected to the mixing tank 1 through the inner cavity 1, and the oil inlet pipe 5 is connected to the mixing tank 1 through the inner cavity 2. The outer side of the rotary valve 7 is clamped onto the inner wall of the inner cavity 1, and the outer side of the rotary valve 8 is clamped onto the inner wall of the inner cavity 2. The motor 6 is bolted to the outer side of the partition sleeve 3. One end of the rotary valve 7 is mounted on the inner wall of the inner cavity 1 via a rotating shaft, and the other end of the rotary valve 7 passes through the inner cavity 1 and connects to one end of the rotary valve 8. The other end of the rotary valve 8 passes through the inner cavity 2 and is keyed to the output shaft of the motor 6. The motor 9 is bolted to one side of the mixing tank 1, and the rotating rod 10 is mounted on the inner side of the mixing tank 1 via a bearing. One end of the rotating rod 10 is keyed to the output shaft of the second motor 9. A connection port is provided at the bottom of the other side of the mixing tank 1. The bottom of the other side of the mixing tank 1 is connected to the top of the other side of the dividing tank 2 through the connection port. In use, water and cooking oil are introduced into the inner side of the partition sleeve 3 through the water inlet pipe 4 and the oil inlet pipe 5, respectively. The first motor 6 drives the first rotating valve 7 and the second rotating valve 8 to rotate synchronously. Thus, when the first rotating valve 7 drops a certain amount of water into the inner side of the mixing tank 1, the second rotating valve 8 simultaneously drops a corresponding proportion of cooking oil into the inner side of the mixing tank 1. This effectively mixes the cooking oil and water in a constant ratio, which can effectively ensure that the water can fully separate the water-soluble impurities in the cooking oil and avoid wasting water resources due to adding too much water. The second motor 9 drives the rotating rod 10 to stir the water and cooking oil up and down. The flow caused by the difference in density between the cooking oil and water greatly improves the mixing efficiency and thus improves the efficiency of removing impurities from the cooking oil.

[0023] This automatic hydration device for edible oil is powered by an external power source. During operation, water and edible oil are introduced into the inner side of the partition 3 through the water inlet pipe 4 and oil inlet pipe 5, respectively. Motor 6 drives rotary valves 7 and 8 to rotate synchronously. This ensures that when rotary valve 7 releases a certain amount of water into the mixing tank 1, rotary valve 8 simultaneously releases a corresponding proportion of edible oil into the mixing tank 1. This effectively maintains a constant mixing ratio between the edible oil and water, ensuring that the water effectively separates water-soluble impurities from the edible oil while avoiding water waste due to excessive water addition. Motor 9 drives the rotating rod 10 to stir the water and edible oil up and down, utilizing the close interaction between the edible oil and water... The different flow rates greatly improve mixing efficiency, thereby improving the efficiency of removing impurities from edible oil. After the water and edible oil are fully mixed, the water and phospholipid impurities in the edible oil are fully integrated and enter the inner side of the dividing tank 2. The cross-section of the dividing tank 2 is increased, thereby reducing the flow rate of the mixture. Under the layer-by-layer blocking of the baffles 11, the water is blocked by the baffles 11 and flows downward, while the edible oil flows upward on the right side of the baffles 11. This effectively ensures the full separation of edible oil and water until the water is discharged from the bottom of the dividing tank 2 through the water outlet pipe 14, and the edible oil is discharged through the oil outlet pipe 13 on the oil tank 12. This avoids incomplete oil-water separation, ensures the processing quality of edible oil, and avoids waste of edible oil.

[0024] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
