Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dairy product technology, and more specifically, to a dairy product sterilization device. Background Technology
[0002] Dairy products, also known as dairy products, are foods made from milk as the basic raw material. They come in many varieties, including liquid milk, milk powder, condensed milk, milk fat, cheese, and other dairy products. These products are rich in nutrients such as protein, fat, lactose, vitamins, and minerals, which help to enhance immunity, promote digestion, and maintain bone health.
[0003] Dairy product sterilization is of paramount importance. Sterilized milk eliminates harmful pathogens, making milk a safe food. Effective sterilization methods not only preserve nutritional value and taste but also avoid the heat effects of traditional sterilization, which has garnered increasing attention. Sterilization methods mainly include heat sterilization, cold sterilization, and physicochemical sterilization. During dairy production, sterilization is frequently required to ensure product quality. Typical sterilization equipment first places milk inside the device and then stirs it using heating elements and a stirring mechanism. However, traditional stirring mechanisms rely solely on a single auger with a fixed position, resulting in poor sterilization effectiveness. Therefore, modifications and optimizations are necessary. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a dairy product sterilization device, which has the advantages of good effect and easy sterilization.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a dairy product sterilization device, comprising a base and a top frame, wherein the top frame is fixedly disposed above the base;
[0006] A sterilization tank is rotatably mounted on the side of the top frame. A drive mechanism is fixedly mounted on top of the sterilization tank. A rotating partition is rotatably mounted inside the sterilization tank. A gear two is rotatably mounted on top of the rotating partition. The bottom of the gear two passes through the upper and lower sides of the rotating partition and is fixedly mounted with an auger one. A gear three is rotatably mounted on top of the rotating partition. The gear three meshes with the gear two. The bottom of the gear three passes through the upper and lower sides of the rotating partition and is fixedly mounted with an auger two.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes a motor fixedly mounted above the sterilization tank, the drive shaft of the motor extending into the interior of the sterilization tank and having a connector fixedly installed thereon, the bottom of the connector being fixedly connected to gear two.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the sterilization tank is connected to an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe on its side, with the outlet pipe located below the inlet pipe.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a protective cover is fixedly installed on the top of the sterilization tank, and the protective cover is located outside the motor and fixedly connected to the motor.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. This utility model starts the motor through the controller, thereby driving the connector, gear two and gear three to rotate simultaneously, which in turn drives the auger one to rotate. Since gear three and the ring rack mesh with each other, gear three will drive the auger two to rotate around gear two, and will also drive the rotation of the rotating partition to stir the milk inside the sterilization tank. Compared with the traditional device, this device stirs the milk, moves the milk upward through the rotation of auger one, and moves the milk downward through the rotation of auger two, thereby creating an internal circulation, which makes the sterilization efficiency higher and improves the working efficiency of the device.
[0015] 2. This utility model starts a self-locking motor through a controller, which drives the disc and protrusion to rotate, thereby driving the sleeve and rack to move up and down.

[0026] 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.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this utility model provides a dairy product sterilization device, including a base 1 and a top frame 2, with the top frame 2 fixedly disposed above the base 1;
[0028] A sterilization tank 11 is rotatably mounted on the side of the top frame 2. A drive mechanism is fixedly mounted on the top of the sterilization tank 11. A rotating partition 20 is rotatably mounted inside the sterilization tank 11. A gear 2 18 is rotatably mounted on the top of the rotating partition 20. The bottom of the gear 2 18 passes through the upper and lower sides of the rotating partition 20 and is fixedly mounted with an auger 1 22. A gear 3 19 is rotatably mounted on the top of the rotating partition 20. The gear 3 19 meshes with the gear 2 18. The bottom of the gear 3 19 passes through the upper and lower sides of the rotating partition 20 and is fixedly mounted with an auger 2 23. An annular rack 21 is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the sterilization tank 11. The annular rack 21 is located above the rotating partition 20 and meshes with the gear 3 19.
[0029] When the operator uses the device, they first start the motor 16 via the controller 12. When the motor 16 starts, it drives the connector 17 to rotate. When the connector 17 rotates, it drives the gear 2 18 to rotate. When the gear 2 18 rotates, it meshes with the gear 3 19, which in turn drives the gear 3 19 and the auger 1 22 to rotate. When the gear 3 19 rotates, it drives the auger 2 23 to rotate. As the gear 3 19 rotates, it meshes with the ring rack 21, which in turn drives the auger 2 23 to rotate around the gear 2 18, thereby stirring the milk inside the sterilization tank 11.
[0030] The controller 12 starts the motor 16, which drives the connector 17, gear 18, and gear 19 to rotate simultaneously, thereby driving the auger 22 to rotate. Since gear 19 and the ring rack 21 mesh with each other, gear 19 drives the auger 23 to rotate around gear 18, which also drives the rotating partition 20 to rotate, thus stirring the milk inside the sterilization tank 11. Compared with traditional devices, this device stirs the milk, moves the milk upward through the rotation of auger 22, and moves the milk downward through the rotation of auger 23, thereby creating an internal circulation, which makes the sterilization efficiency higher and improves the working efficiency of the device.
[0031] The base 1 has a support plate 3 fixedly installed on top, a self-locking motor 4 fixedly installed on top of the support plate 3, a disc 5 fixedly installed on top of the drive shaft of the self-locking motor 4, a limit groove 9 opened on the side of the top frame 2, a rack 8 movably installed on one side of the top frame 2, one side of the rack 8 extends into the interior of the limit groove 9 and is movably connected to the limit groove 9, a sleeve 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rack 8, a protrusion 6 is movably fitted inside the sleeve 7, the side of the protrusion 6 extends to the outside of the sleeve 7 and is fixedly connected to the disc 5, a gear 10 is rotatably installed on one side of the top frame 2, the gear 10 meshes with the rack 8, one end of the gear 10 extends into the interior of the top frame 2 and is fixedly connected to the sterilization tank 11.
[0032] When the staff uses the device, they first start the self-locking motor 4 through the controller 12. When the self-locking motor 4 starts, it drives the disc 5 to rotate. When the disc 5 rotates, it drives the protrusion 6 to rotate. When the protrusion 6 rotates, it drives the sleeve 7 to move up and down. When the sleeve 7 moves up and down, it drives the rack 8 to move up and down. When the rack 8 moves up and down, since the rack 8 and the gear 10 mesh with each other, the rack 8 moves up and down, which drives the gear 10 to swing back and forth, thereby driving the sterilization tank 11 to swing back and forth.
[0033] The controller 12 starts the self-locking motor 4, which drives the disc 5 and the protrusion 6 to rotate, thereby driving the sleeve 7 and the rack 8 to move up and down. Since the rack 8 meshes with the gear 10, the gear 10 swings with the up and down movement of the rack 8, ultimately driving the sterilization tank 11 to swing back and forth. Compared with the traditional device, this device makes the milk inside the sterilization tank 11 sway back and forth by swinging the sterilization tank 11, so that the milk at the bottom inside the sterilization tank 11 is exchanged with the upper layer, thereby making the sterilization efficiency higher and improving the sterilization efficiency.
[0034] The drive mechanism includes a motor 16 fixedly mounted above the sterilization tank 11. The drive shaft of the motor 16 extends into the interior of the sterilization tank 11 and is fixedly mounted with a connector 17. The bottom of the connector 17 is fixedly connected to a gear 18.
[0035] The controller 12 starts the motor 16, which drives the connector 17 to rotate, and then drives the gear 18 to rotate.
[0036] The sterilization tank 11 has an inlet pipe 13 and an outlet pipe 14 connected to its side, with the outlet pipe 14 located below the inlet pipe 13.
[0037] Milk to be sterilized can be added into the device by opening the feed pipe 13, and the sterilized milk can be discharged by opening the discharge pipe 14.
[0038] The sterilization tank 11 is fixedly installed with a protective cover 15 on its top. The protective cover 15 is located outside the motor 16 and is fixedly connected to the motor 16.
[0039] The protective cover 15 is designed to protect the motor 16, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the motor 16.
[0040] A heating tube 24 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the sterilization tank 11, and the heating tube 24 is located below the rotating partition 20.
[0041] The heating element 24 is activated by the controller 12 to heat and sterilize the milk inside the sterilization tank 11.
[0042] Among them, a controller 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the top frame 2, and the controller 12 is electrically connected to the self-locking motor 4, the motor 16 and the heating tube 24.
[0043] The design of controller 12 controls the operation of the device, thereby improving the safety of the device operation.
[0044] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:
[0045] When the operator uses the device, they first start the motor 16 via the controller 12. When the motor 16 starts, it drives the connector 17 to rotate. When the connector 17 rotates, it drives the gear 2 18 to rotate. When the gear 2 18 rotates, it meshes with the gear 3 19, which in turn drives the gear 3 19 and the auger 1 22 to rotate. When the gear 3 19 rotates, it drives the auger 2 23 to rotate. As the gear 3 19 rotates, it meshes with the ring rack 21, which in turn drives the auger 2 23 to rotate around the gear 2 18, thereby stirring the milk inside the sterilization tank 11.
[0046] When the staff uses the device, they first start the self-locking motor 4 through the controller 12. When the self-locking motor 4 starts, it drives the disc 5 to rotate. When the disc 5 rotates, it drives the protrusion 6 to rotate. When the protrusion 6 rotates, it drives the sleeve 7 to move up and down. When the sleeve 7 moves up and down, it drives the rack 8 to move up and down. When the rack 8 moves up and down, since the rack 8 and the gear 10 mesh with each other, the rack 8 moves up and down, which drives the gear 10 to swing back and forth, thereby driving the sterilization tank 11 to swing back and forth.
