[0028] A peanut oil cooler according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 The present invention aims to provide an embodiment of a peanut oil cooler.

[0030] This utility model provides a peanut oil cooler, referring to... Figure 1 The system includes a cooling tank 100, a heat exchange mechanism, and an oil equalization mechanism. The cooling tank 100 is used to hold peanut oil. The cooling tank 100 is equipped with an oil inlet pipe 110 and an oil outlet pipe 120. The oil inlet pipe 110 is used to transport peanut oil into the cooling tank 100, and the oil outlet pipe 120 is used to discharge the peanut oil from the cooling tank 100. The heat exchange mechanism includes an outdoor unit 130, a delivery pipe 140, a heat exchange pipe 150, and a return pipe 160. The outdoor unit 130 is used to generate coolant. The delivery pipe 140 is connected to the air outlet of the outdoor unit 130, and the return pipe 160 is connected to the air inlet of the outdoor unit 130. The heat exchange pipe 150 connects the delivery pipe 140 and the return pipe 160 and is located inside the cooling tank 100.

[0031] Understandably, by setting up a cooling tank 100, an outdoor air conditioning unit 130, a delivery pipe 140, a heat exchange pipe 150, and a return pipe 160, peanut oil is injected into the cooling tank 100 through the oil inlet pipe 110. At the same time, the outdoor air conditioning unit 130 can generate coolant, which enters the heat exchange pipe 150 through the delivery pipe 140. The coolant in the heat exchange pipe 150 and the peanut oil in the cooling tank 100 exchange heat, cooling the peanut oil. After cooling, the peanut oil is discharged through the oil drain pipe 120. Meanwhile, the coolant re-enters the outdoor air conditioning unit 130 through the return pipe 160, thereby enabling rapid cooling of the peanut oil.

[0032] This utility model provides a peanut oil cooler, referring to... Figure 2 It also includes an oil-smoothing mechanism, which includes an oil-stirring paddle 170 and a motor 180 that drives the oil-stirring paddle 170 to rotate. The oil-stirring paddle 170 is located inside the cooling tank 100 and is used to stir the peanut oil.

[0033] Understandably, by setting up an oil agitator 170 and a motor 180, the motor 180 drives the oil agitator 170 to rotate, and the oil agitator 170 stirs the peanut oil in the cooling tank 100, which accelerates the flow of peanut oil in the cooling tank 100. This facilitates the rapid contact of peanut oil in various positions inside the cooling tank 100 with the heat exchange tube 150, resulting in uniform cooling of the peanut oil. This ensures that the temperature of the cooled peanut oil reaches the required range and also helps to improve cooling efficiency.

[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, the oil stirring impeller 170 includes a central impeller shaft 190 and a plurality of first impeller plates 200 disposed on the outer periphery of the central impeller shaft 190. The central impeller shaft 190 is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the motor 180, and the plurality of first impeller plates 200 are arranged along the length direction of the central impeller shaft 190.

[0035] It is understandable that by setting the central propeller shaft 190 and the first propeller plate 200, the motor 180 drives the central propeller shaft 190 to rotate, so that the first propeller plate 200 agitates the peanut oil inside the cooling tank 100, and so that several first propeller plates 200 are arranged along the length of the central propeller shaft 190, so that the peanut oil at various heights in the cooling tank 100 flows rapidly, which is conducive to the rapid heat exchange between the peanut oil and the heat exchange tube 150.

[0036] In some embodiments of this utility model, the oil stirring impeller 170 further includes an eccentric impeller shaft 210, a plurality of second impeller plates 220 disposed on the outer periphery of the eccentric impeller shaft 210, and a connecting rod 230 connecting the eccentric impeller shaft 210 and the central impeller shaft 190, wherein the plurality of second impeller plates 220 are arranged along the length direction of the eccentric impeller shaft 210.

[0037] It is understandable that by setting up the eccentric propeller shaft 210, the second propeller plate 220, and the connecting rod 230, the eccentric propeller shaft 210 can be parallel to the central propeller shaft 190, and the eccentric propeller shaft 210 is connected to the central propeller shaft 190 through the connecting rod 230, so that the eccentric propeller shaft 210 and the central propeller shaft 190 form a distance, and the eccentric propeller shaft 210 can rotate with the central propeller shaft 190, so that the second propeller plate 220 agitates the peanut oil, thereby accelerating the flow of peanut oil in the horizontal direction of the cooling tank 100, thus accelerating the uniform cooling of the peanut oil.

[0038] In some embodiments of this utility model, the heat exchange tube 150 is located between the central propeller shaft 190 and the eccentric propeller shaft 210, and the heat exchange tube 150 extends spirally around the outer periphery of the central propeller shaft 190.

[0039] It is understandable that by positioning the heat exchange tube 150 between the central propeller shaft 190 and the eccentric propeller shaft 210, when the first propeller 200 and the second propeller 220 move the peanut oil, they can push the peanut oil toward the heat exchange tube 150, which is beneficial for the peanut oil in various positions inside the cooling tank 100 to quickly contact the heat exchange tube 150 and make the peanut oil cool evenly.

[0040] In some embodiments of this utility model, a temperature sensor 240 is installed inside the cooling tank 100. The temperature sensor 240 can detect the temperature of the peanut oil in the cooling tank 100. The temperature sensor 240 transmits relevant electrical signals to the control system. After confirming that the temperature meets the requirements, the peanut oil in the cooling tank 100 is discharged through the oil drain pipe 120.

[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, a flap 250 is hinged to the top of the cooling tank 100, and the flap 250 is used to form the top wall of the cooling tank 100.

[0042] Understandably, by setting the flip cover 250, flipping the flip cover 250 upwards can open the cooling tank 100, making it convenient to inspect the inside of the cooling tank 100.

[0043] Flipping the lid 250 downwards closes the cooling tank 100, preventing peanut oil from splashing when the oil stirrer 170 agitates the peanut oil.

[0044] In some embodiments of this utility model, a vertical transparent tube 260 is connected to the outside of the cooling tank 100. The transparent tube 260 is used to display the liquid level, thereby ensuring that the oil level of peanut oil inside the cooling tank 100 reaches the required position.

[0045] In some embodiments of this utility model, an insulation layer is provided on the outside of the cooling tank 100. By wrapping the outside of the cooling tank 100 with an insulation layer, the insulation layer can keep the cooling tank 100 warm, which is beneficial to keeping the cooling tank 100 at a low temperature.

[0046] In some embodiments of this utility model, a bracket 280 is provided on the top of the cooling tank 100. The bracket 280 has a support plate 290. The motor 180 is fixed on the support plate 290. The output shaft of the motor 180 passes through the cooling tank 100 and is connected to the oil stirring paddle 170.

[0047] Therefore, by fixing the motor 180 to the bottom of the cooling tank 100 through the bracket 280, the cooling tank 100 is more stable and less prone to shaking when the motor 180 rotates.

[0048] In some embodiments of this utility model, a slag discharge pipe 300 and a switch valve 310 are provided at the bottom of the cooling tank 100.

[0049] Therefore, the wastewater generated during the cleaning of the cooling tank 100 can be discharged through the slag discharge pipe 300, and the switch valve 310 can control the opening and closing of the slag discharge pipe 300.
