Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dairy processing technology, specifically to a dairy product preheating device. Background Technology

[0002] Preheating is an important step in the dairy production process. Preheating makes it easier for dairy products to reach the required temperature during subsequent processing, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the entire production line, ensuring product quality, and proper preheating can also kill some microorganisms, reducing the pressure of subsequent sterilization processes. At the same time, it also helps to maintain the nutritional components and flavor of dairy products.

[0003] During the preheating process of dairy products, the products are usually stirred at the same time. Because dairy products are relatively viscous, they are prone to generating many air bubbles during stirring. However, preheating devices generally do not have a defoaming structure, and a large number of air bubbles accumulate inside the device, which can easily cause dairy products to leak out. This not only causes inconvenience to dairy product processing but also results in waste of dairy products. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dairy product preheating device that can preheat dairy products while stirring them, and can eliminate air bubbles generated by stirring.

[0005] This utility model discloses a dairy product preheating device, comprising a preheating tank, a stirring mechanism, a support, and a heating jacket. The support is fixedly connected to the outer top surface of the preheating tank and is coaxial with the preheating tank. The top wall of the preheating tank is provided with an inlet and an outlet. The heating jacket is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the preheating tank, and a heating cavity is formed between the inner wall of the heating jacket and the outer wall of the preheating tank. The stirring mechanism includes a rotating shaft and stirring blades, both of which are located inside the preheating tank. The rotating shaft is coaxial with the preheating tank, and the top end of the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner top surface of the preheating tank. The stirring blades are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft. The upper end of the rotating shaft extends through the top wall of the preheating tank and is rotatably connected to the support. The center of the support is provided with a through hole for the rotating shaft to rotate. A drive motor is fixedly connected to the top surface of the support, and the output shaft of the drive motor is rotatably connected to the through hole in the center of the support for the rotating shaft to rotate. The output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft.

[0006] Furthermore, a top plate is rotatably connected to the support, and a through hole is provided in the center of the top plate. The through hole in the center of the top plate is rotatably connected to the support, and the top plate is provided with two through holes that communicate with the feed port and the exhaust port.

[0007] Furthermore, the outer wall of the support is provided with a movable groove, and multiple steel balls are rotatably engaged in the movable groove. The outer walls of the multiple steel balls are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the central through hole of the top plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the stirring blade is provided with multiple holes, which are evenly distributed in a matrix on the stirring blade, and each of the multiple holes is connected to a poking needle.

[0009] Furthermore, a hot fluid inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the heating jacket, and the hot fluid inlet pipe communicates with the heating cavity. A hot fluid outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the top wall of the heating jacket, and the hot fluid outlet pipe communicates with the heating cavity.

[0010] Furthermore, a discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the preheating tank, the discharge pipe is connected to the inside of the preheating tank, and a discharge valve is connected to the discharge pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, a bearing is rotatably sleeved at the lower end of the shaft, and the bearing is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the preheating tank by two support legs.

[0012] Furthermore, multiple stirring blades are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the multiple stirring blades are evenly distributed around the axis of the rotating shaft.

[0013] Furthermore, multiple movable grooves are provided on the outer wall of the support, and the multiple movable grooves are linearly and evenly distributed along the height direction of the support. Each movable groove is connected to multiple steel balls.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention uses a drive motor to rotate a shaft, which in turn rotates a stirring blade. The stirring blade stirs the dairy product, ensuring uniform mixing and preventing the formation of a viscous substance, thus facilitating subsequent processing. Simultaneously, the puncturing needle breaks air bubbles generated during stirring, preventing the accumulation of air bubbles in the preheating tank and thus preventing leakage of the dairy product, ensuring the normal operation of dairy product processing. This invention also connects the upper and lower exhaust ports by rotating the top plate, allowing inert gases such as nitrogen to be injected into the preheating tank. The inert gas displaces the air inside the preheating tank, sealing the dairy product with the outside air to prevent oxidation and ensure the quality of the dairy product remains intact. This invention achieves preheating of the dairy product and stirs it during preheating, preventing the formation of a viscous substance for subsequent processing. The puncturing needle breaks air bubbles generated during stirring, preventing the accumulation of air bubbles in the preheating tank and thus preventing leakage of the dairy product.

The bearing 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the preheating tank 1 by two support legs 11.

[0021] Dairy products are fed into the preheating tank 1 through the feed inlet 101, and inert gases such as nitrogen are injected into the preheating tank 1 through the exhaust port 102. The inert gases can squeeze out the air in the preheating tank 1, sealing the dairy products inside with the outside air to prevent oxidation and ensure the quality of the dairy products remains intact.

During this process, the hot fluids can heat the dairy products through the tank wall of the preheating tank 1.

[0026] A discharge pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the preheating tank 1. The discharge pipe 8 is connected to the inside of the preheating tank 1, and a discharge valve 81 is connected to the discharge pipe 8.

[0027] After the dairy products are preheated, stop introducing hot fluid into the heating jacket 6, turn off the drive motor 5, then open the discharge valve 81 and discharge the dairy products from the preheating tank 1 through the discharge pipe 8.

[0028] Multiple stirring blades 22 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 21, and the multiple stirring blades 22 are evenly distributed around the axis of the rotating shaft 21.

[0029] The puncturing needle 9 can puncture the air bubbles generated during the stirring process, which can prevent air bubbles from accumulating in the preheating tank 1, thereby preventing the dairy products from leaking out and ensuring the normal operation of dairy product processing.

[0030] This invention enables the preheating of dairy products and the stirring of the dairy products during preheating to prevent the dairy products from forming a viscous substance, thus facilitating subsequent processing. The setting of the puncture needle 9 breaks the air bubbles generated during the stirring process, preventing the accumulation of air bubbles in the preheating tank 1, thereby preventing the dairy products from leaking out.
