Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of compound seasoning production technology, specifically a continuous cooling device for compound seasoning production. Background Technology

[0002] Compound seasonings typically contain multiple ingredients, such as soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and spices. These ingredients may require high-temperature treatment during production (such as heating and sterilization), while the cooling process is to bring them to the appropriate storage and mixing temperature to prevent overheating and quality problems.

[0003] For example, patent CN220135807U discloses a cooling device for seasoning production, relating to the technical field of seasoning production equipment. It includes a workbench with an insulated outer shell fixedly installed on its top. Multiple condenser tubes are fixedly installed on the inner side walls of the insulated outer shell. This invention cools the condenser tubes using a refrigeration box, and then uses multiple fans to blow air vertically upwards, causing airflow within the insulated outer shell. The flowing cold air cools the seasonings placed on a conveyor belt without disturbing them. Simultaneously, the conveyor belt delivers the cooled seasonings into a discharge hopper for unified collection. This eliminates complex steps and avoids direct cold air blowing, improving cooling efficiency. Infrared sensors one and two sense the storage frame, controlling a cylinder fixed to the frame to raise and lower the sealing door, reducing cold air loss, saving energy, and lowering costs.

[0004] However, the cooling device for seasoning production in this application lacks a graded cooling structure. When dealing with the production and processing of compound seasonings, the optimal processing and storage temperatures required for various seasonings are different, resulting in poor cooling effect. Utility Model Content

The first stage cooling tank has a higher cooling temperature, while the second stage cooling tank has a lower cooling temperature. After cooling twice in the first and second stage cooling tanks, the mixture can be sent to the interior of the mixing tank through a feed pipe for discharge or mixing. When processing compound seasonings, if seasonings require different cooling temperatures, the material requiring lower cooling can be first sent to the interior of the first seasoning tank for preliminary processing and then sent to the interior of the first stage cooling tank for preliminary cooling. Then, the seasoning requiring higher cooling can be added to the interior of the first seasoning tank for preliminary processing, allowing the temperature of the seasonings inside the first stage cooling tank to drop to the first standard. Finally, it is sent to the interior of the second stage cooling tank through a grading pipe for secondary cooling, where the temperature is lower than that of the first stage cooling tank. Meanwhile, the second seasoning is fed into the first grading cooling tank for cooling. After the first seasoning is cooled in the second grading cooling tank, it is fed into the mixing tank. The second seasoning, which has been cooled in the first grading cooling tank, is then fed into the mixing tank through the grading pipe and the feed pipe for mixing, thus completing the processing of the compound seasoning. Finally, it is discharged through the discharge pipe.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the inside of the heat exchange tank is fixedly connected with a cold liquid pipe, and the lower end of the inside of the heat exchange tank is fixedly connected with a hot liquid pipe.

[0015] By using the above technical scheme, when emergency rapid cooling is needed, the heat exchange medium can be introduced into the inside of the heat exchange tank through the cold liquid pipe, and the heat exchange medium can be discharged through the hot liquid pipe after heat exchange.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the top end of the first seasoning tank is fixedly connected with a feeding pipe, the top of the first seasoning tank is installed with a first stirring motor, the lower end of the first stirring motor and located inside the first seasoning tank is fixedly connected with a mixing stirring blade, and the bottom of the first seasoning tank is fixedly connected with a base.
