[0002] Dairy products refer to products made using cow's milk or sheep's milk and their processed products as the main raw materials, with or without the addition of appropriate amounts of vitamins, minerals and other auxiliary materials, and processed according to the conditions specified in the standards. There are many types of dairy products.

[0003] In the prior art, dairy products are often sterilized using sterilization equipment. The sterilization equipment mainly consists of a container, heating elements, a stirring device, and an insulation layer. The heating elements are arranged around the container. When the dairy products are sterilized at high temperature inside the container, the stirring plate of the stirring device drives the dairy products to rotate, thereby achieving the effect of high-temperature sterilization of the dairy products.

[0004] However, when the stirring plate rotates the dairy products, the middle part of the dairy products cannot be fully mixed with the edge part. This causes the heating element to only heat the edge part of the dairy products, resulting in uneven heating of the dairy products as a whole, which affects the sterilization effect of the dairy products in the sterilization device. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dairy product sterilization device to solve the technical problem in the prior art where, when the stirring plate drives the dairy product to rotate, the middle part of the dairy product cannot be fully mixed with the edge part, which causes the heating element to only heat the edge part of the dairy product, resulting in uneven heating of the dairy product as a whole, thus affecting the sterilization effect of the dairy product in the sterilization device.

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A dairy product sterilization device, comprising:

[0008] The container has a feed inlet at the top, a round hole at the top center, and a discharge outlet at the bottom. Inside the container is a rotating shaft. Several heating elements are axially fixed to the inner wall of the container. A feed valve is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feed inlet, and the feed inlet and the round hole do not contact each other. A discharge valve is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the discharge outlet. Spiral-shaped fan blades are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the round hole.

[0009] The driven disc is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top of the rotating shaft. A belt is sleeved on the outer wall of the driven disc, and a drive shaft is sleeved on the end of the belt away from the driven disc.

[0010] A drive unit is fixedly connected to the top of a drive shaft, and side plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the drive unit. The bottom of the side plates is fixedly connected to the container.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: several stirring tubes are fixedly connected to the side end of the rotating shaft along the height direction.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the stirring tube is internally connected to the rotating shaft, and air outlets are respectively opened on both sides of the stirring tube along the length direction.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the driven disc is provided with a connecting pipe at the top, the connecting pipe is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating shaft, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting pipe, a gas guide pipe is fixedly connected to the top end of the connecting pipe, and the bottom end of the fixing plate is fixedly connected to the container.

[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a rotating groove is provided on the inner wall of the connecting pipe, a sealing plate is provided inside the connecting pipe, a rotating plate is clamped and connected to the inner wall of the rotating groove and rotated to the rotating plate, and the rotating plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top end of the rotating shaft.

[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the sealing plate is in the shape of a circular plate, a positioning plate is fixedly connected to the side end of the sealing plate, a control component is fixedly connected to the end of the sealing plate away from the positioning plate, a positioning groove is opened on the inner wall of the connecting pipe, the inner wall of the positioning groove is rotatably connected to the positioning plate, and the corresponding control component is rotatably connected to the side end of the connecting pipe.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. Pour the dairy products into the container through the inlet. Then, rotate the inlet valve to seal the inlet. The heating element then operates, heating the dairy products to sterilize them at a high temperature. The drive motor drives the drive shaft to rotate, with the bottom of the drive shaft rotating along the top of the container. The drive shaft drives the belt to move, which in turn drives the driven disc to rotate. The driven disc drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the fan blades to rotate. The rotating fan blades move the dairy products from bottom to top, causing them to tumble inside the container. This tumbling mixes the outer and inner layers of the dairy products, ensuring even heating and improving the high-temperature sterilization effect.

[0027] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a dairy product sterilization device includes: a container 1, a driven plate 16, and a drive motor 3.

[0029] The container 1 has an inlet 13 at the top, a round hole at the top center, and an outlet 10 at the bottom. The container 1 has a rotating shaft 12 inside, and several heating elements 8 are axially fixed to the inner wall of the container 1. An inlet valve 7 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the inlet 13, and the inlet 13 and the round hole are not in contact. An outlet valve 9 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the outlet 10. A spiral-shaped fan blade 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 12, and the rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the round hole. Dairy products are poured into the container 1 through the inlet 13. Then, the inlet valve 7 is rotatably installed inside the inlet 13, sealing the inlet 13. The heating elements 8 then operate, heating the dairy products to sterilize them at a high temperature.

[0030] Driven disc 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top of rotating shaft 12. A belt 15 is sleeved on the outer wall of driven disc 16. A drive shaft 14 is sleeved on the end of belt 15 away from driven disc 16. Drive motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of drive shaft 14. Side plates 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of drive motor 3. The bottom of side plates 2 is fixedly connected to container 1. When drive motor 3 runs, it drives drive shaft 14 to rotate. The bottom of drive shaft 14 rotates along the top of container 1. Drive shaft 14 drives belt 15 to move. Belt 15 drives driven disc 16 to rotate. Driven disc 16 drives rotating shaft 12 to rotate. 12 drives the fan blades 11 to rotate, and the rotating fan blades 11 move the dairy products from bottom to top. The dairy products tumble up and down in the container 1, and the tumbling of the dairy products can mix the outer and middle dairy products, thereby ensuring that the dairy products are heated evenly and improving the effect of high-temperature sterilization. When the driven plate 16 rotates, the driven plate 16 rotates along the top of the container 1. The driven plate 16 can seal the gap between the rotating shaft 12 and the round hole to prevent dust from entering the container 1 and contaminating the dairy products. On the other hand, it can also prevent the dairy products from evaporating and leaking out through the gap.

[0031] In some specific implementations, several stirring tubes 23 are fixedly connected to the side end of the rotating shaft 12 along the height direction. The stirring tubes 23 are interconnected with the interior of the rotating shaft 12. Air outlets 24 are opened on both sides of the stirring tubes 23 along the length direction. When the dairy products are tumbled upward by the fan blades 11, the stirring tubes 23 rotate with the rotating shaft 12. The stirring tubes 23 further stir the dairy products, thereby ensuring that the dairy products are stirred more evenly. In order to further improve the sterilization effect of the dairy products, water vapor is transported into the stirring tubes 23 through the rotating shaft 12. The stirring tubes 23 are introduced into the dairy products through the air outlets 24 on both sides, thereby realizing that the stirring tubes 23 can sterilize the dairy products at high temperature while stirring them.

[0032] In some specific implementations, the driven plate 16 is provided with a connecting pipe 5 at the top. The connecting pipe 5 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 12. The two ends of the connecting pipe 5 are respectively fixedly connected to the fixing plates 6. The top end of the connecting pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the air guide pipe 4. The bottom end of the fixing plate 6 is fixedly connected to the container 1. In order to ensure that water vapor can be introduced into the rotating shaft 12 when it rotates, the connecting pipe 5 will not rotate with the rotating shaft 12 when it rotates. The connecting pipe 5 is fixed to the top of the container 1 by the fixing plate 6. Water vapor is introduced into the connecting pipe 5 through the air guide pipe 4 and then enters the rotating shaft 12 through the connecting pipe 5. The connecting pipe 5 realizes the function of connecting the rotating shaft 12 and the air guide pipe 4.

[0033] In some specific implementations, a rotating groove 18 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting pipe 5, and a sealing plate 20 is provided inside the connecting pipe 5. A rotating plate 17 is clamped and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating groove 18. The rotating plate 17 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top end of the rotating shaft 12. When the rotating shaft 12 rotates, the rotating shaft 12 drives the rotating plate 17 to rotate along the inner wall of the rotating groove 18. The clamping connection between the rotating plate 17 and the inner wall of the rotating groove 18 provides a sealing function for the gap between the rotating shaft 12 and the connecting pipe 5.

[0034] In some specific implementations, the sealing plate 20 is circular in shape, with a positioning plate 21 fixedly connected to its side. A control element 19 is fixedly connected to the end of the sealing plate 20 away from the positioning plate 21. A positioning groove 22 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting pipe 5, and the inner wall of the positioning groove 22 is rotatably connected to the positioning plate 21. The control element 19 is rotatably connected to the side of the connecting pipe 5. When water vapor enters the rotating shaft 12, the operator controls the control element 19 to rotate the sealing plate 20. When the axis of the sealing plate 20 and the connecting pipe 5 is parallel, water vapor passes through the connecting pipe 5. When water vapor is not needed, the operator rotates the control element 19 again to make the axis of the sealing plate 20 and the connecting pipe 5 perpendicular, and the sealing plate 20 seals the connecting pipe 5. The sealing plate 20 drives the positioning plate 21 to rotate along the inner wall of the positioning groove 22, and the positioning plate 21 and the inner wall of the positioning groove 22 provide limiting support for the sealing plate 20.

[0035] The foregoing has described several embodiments of this utility model in detail, but these embodiments are not limited thereto and should not be considered as limiting the scope of this utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the claims of this utility model should still fall within the patent coverage of this utility model.
