Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sterilization equipment technology, specifically a self-cleaning wolfberry pulp sterilization device. Background Technology
[0002] Goji berry juice is a concentrated juice obtained by washing, crushing, juicing, and filtering fresh goji berries. It retains most of the nutrients in goji berries, such as polysaccharides, carotenoids, and vitamin C, making it a nutritious beverage. During production, goji berry juice requires sterilization to extend its shelf life. However, most existing sterilization equipment uses high-temperature steam, which can destroy polysaccharides and vitamin C in the juice. Furthermore, the viscosity of the juice makes it sticky and difficult to clean, and these surfaces can harbor bacteria, leading to contamination and reduced sterilization effectiveness. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the above technical problems, this utility model provides a self-cleaning sterilization device for wolfberry pulp.
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a self-cleaning wolfberry pulp sterilization device, including a temporary storage box, an inlet pipe fixedly connected to the top of the temporary storage box, an outlet pipe fixedly connected to the bottom of the temporary storage box, a support fixedly connected to the bottom of the outlet pipe, a sterilization pipe connected to the bottom of the outlet pipe, the sterilization pipe being arranged in a folded manner, an ultraviolet sterilization lamp fixedly connected inside the horizontal tube of the sterilization pipe, the sterilization pipe being fixedly connected to the support, a three-way valve fixedly connected to the end of the sterilization pipe, the three-way valve including an outlet and a cleaning outlet, the cleaning outlet being connected to the tailwater tank through a pipe and a first water pump, an inlet pipe being connected to the bottom of the temporary storage box, and the inlet pipe being connected to the clean water tank through a water pipe and a second water pump.
[0005] Furthermore, a motor is fixedly connected to the top of the temporary storage tank, and the motor's shaft passes through the temporary storage tank and is fixedly connected to a stirrer.
[0006] Furthermore, solenoid valves are installed on the feed pipe, water inlet pipe, and discharge pipe.
[0007] Furthermore, the top of the clean water tank is connected to a clean water inlet pipe, and the bottom is connected to a clean water outlet pipe.
[0008] Furthermore, valves are installed on both the clean water inlet pipe and the clean water outlet pipe.
[0009] Furthermore, a tailwater outlet pipe is provided at the bottom of the tailwater tank.
[0010] Furthermore, a valve is installed on the tailwater outlet pipe.
[0011] This utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0012] 1. This utility model features a folded sterilization tube with an ultraviolet sterilization lamp inside. The folding design extends the time the goji berry pulp remains in the sterilization tube without increasing the surface area, enhancing the sterilization effect. Furthermore, the sterilization tube has a narrow cross-sectional area, resulting in a small thickness of the goji berry pulp inside, thus solving the problem of insufficient ultraviolet sterilization penetration. It also includes a clean water tank and a tail water tank, as well as a first and second water pump. Repeated water flow is used to clean the temporary storage tank and the inside of the sterilization tube, providing a strong cleaning effect while preventing bacterial growth in the remaining goji berry pulp.
[0013] 2. This utility model is equipped with a motor and a stirrer, which can stir the wolfberry pulp to prevent the internal residue from settling and accumulating. At the same time, stirring during washing helps to improve the washing effect. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] like Figures 1-3The device shown is a self-cleaning sterilization device for wolfberry pulp, including a temporary storage box 1. The top of the temporary storage box 1 is fixedly connected to an inlet pipe 2, and the bottom is fixedly connected to an outlet pipe 6. The bottom of the temporary storage box 1 is fixedly connected to a support 8. The bottom of the outlet pipe 6 is connected to a sterilization pipe 7. The sterilization pipe 7 is arranged in a folded manner. An ultraviolet sterilization lamp 19 is fixedly connected inside the horizontal tube of the sterilization pipe 7. The sterilization pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the support 8. The end of the sterilization pipe 7 is fixedly connected to a three-way valve 9. The three-way valve 9 includes an outlet 17 and a cleaning port 18. The cleaning port 18 is connected to the tailwater tank 14 through a pipe and a first water pump 15.
