TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to whiskey processing equipment technical field especially relates to a new whiskey distillation equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Whiskey is a kind of liquor made of barley and other cereals, which is aged in oak barrels for years and then blended to about 43 degrees. The brewing process includes six steps: malting, mashing, fermentation, distillation, aging and blending. Distillation is an important process in whiskey production. During distillation, the koji needs to be heated. Most distillation equipment is heated from the bottom, which leads to uneven heating, slow heating of the koji at the top and other problems. Moreover, uniform heat exchange and condensation of alcohol vapor cannot be achieved during condensation, which is not conducive to efficient and high-quality production of whiskey. Therefore, a new whiskey distillation equipment is needed. SUMMARY

[0003] The utility model aims at providing a new whiskey distillation equipment to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

Multiple heat exchange tubes are evenly spaced circumferentially between the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe. Each heat exchange tube is U-shaped, with its two ends connected to the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe, respectively.

[0009] Furthermore, the steam conduit is connected to the upper end of the steam outlet pipe via a retractable corrugated pipe, and the condenser is equipped with a drive mechanism for driving the steam outlet pipe to move up and down.

[0010] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a transmission screw rotatably disposed at one end inside the condenser and a limiting guide rod fixedly disposed at the other end inside the condenser.

[0019] like Figs. 1-3 As shown, a novel whisky distillation apparatus includes a support platform 1, with a distillation vessel 2 and a condenser 3 mounted at both ends of the upper part of the support platform 1.

[0020] A feed pipe 4, connected to the interior of the distillation vessel 2, is installed on one side of the vessel. The feed pipe 4 is used to introduce external yeast into the interior of the distillation vessel 2. A heater 5 is installed inside the distillation vessel 2. In this embodiment, the heater 5 is specifically a ring heater and is fixedly installed on the inner circumferential wall of the distillation vessel 2.

[0021] A stirring shaft 6 is rotatably mounted inside the distillation vessel 2. A first motor 7 for driving the stirring shaft 6 to rotate is mounted on the bottom of the support platform 1. Multiple pairs of stirring blades 8 are evenly spaced on the stirring shaft 6. In addition, a first rotary sealing ring 9 is installed at the contact point between the stirring shaft 6 and the bottom plate of the distillation vessel 2.

[0022] This invention, by installing a ring heater on the inner circumferential wall of the distillation vessel, ensures uniform heating of the yeast inside the vessel. Furthermore, during operation, a first motor drives a stirring shaft to rotate, and the stirring blades on the shaft stir the yeast inside the vessel, further improving the uniformity of heating and ensuring the effective release of alcoholic vapors from the yeast.

[0023] The upper part of the distillation vessel 2 is connected to the condenser vessel 3 via a steam conduit 10. Cooling water supply pipe 11 and cooling water return pipe 12 are respectively installed at the upper and lower ends of the condenser vessel 3, and are connected to an external cold water circulation system. A condenser tube assembly is provided between the cooling water supply pipe 11 and the cooling water return pipe 12. In this embodiment, the condenser tube assembly includes an inlet pipe 13 connected to the cooling water supply pipe 11 and an outlet pipe 14 connected to the cooling water return pipe 12. Multiple heat exchange tubes 15 are evenly spaced circumferentially between the inlet pipe 13 and the outlet pipe 14. Each heat exchange tube 15 is U-shaped, with its two ends connected to the inlet pipe 13 and the outlet pipe 14, respectively.

[0024] The condenser 3 has an annular steam outlet pipe 16 inside, which is sleeved on the outside of the condenser assembly, and multiple nozzles 17 are evenly spaced on its inner circumferential wall. The steam conduit 10 is located inside the condenser 3 and is connected to the upper end of the steam outlet pipe 16. The bottom of the condenser 3 is connected to a wine outlet pipe 18, and an on / off valve 19 is installed on the wine outlet pipe 18.

[0025] In this embodiment, the steam conduit 10 is connected to the upper end of the steam outlet pipe 16 via a retractable corrugated pipe 20, and the condenser is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the steam outlet pipe 16 to move up and down.

[0026] Specifically: The driving mechanism includes a transmission screw 21 rotatably mounted inside one end of the condenser 3 and a limiting guide rod 22 fixedly mounted inside the other end of the condenser 3. A second motor 23 for driving the transmission screw 21 to rotate is installed at the bottom of the support platform 1, and a second rotating sealing ring 24 is installed at the contact part between the transmission screw 21 and the condenser 3. Two connecting plates 25 are symmetrically fixed at both ends of the outer side of the steam outlet pipe 16. One of the connecting plates 25 is fixedly mounted with a transmission sleeve 26 threadedly connected to the transmission screw 21, and the other connecting plate 25 has a through hole that slides with the limiting guide rod 22.

[0027] The alcohol-containing vapor precipitated from the distillation kettle enters the steam outlet pipe through the steam pipe and the bellows, and is evenly sprayed out by multiple nozzles on the inner circumferential wall of the steam outlet pipe. During operation, the second motor drives the transmission screw to rotate. Since the transmission sleeve and the transmission screw maintain a threaded fit, the steam outlet pipe can move up and down during the forward and reverse rotation of the transmission screw, so that the alcohol-containing vapor can come into uniform contact with all parts of the condenser assembly. Moreover, the multiple heat exchange tubes evenly arranged along the circumference of the condenser can further achieve uniform condensation of the alcohol-containing vapor.
