The description in this part is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model in any way.
[0034] like Figure 1-5As shown, a caramelization apparatus for syrup includes a constant temperature chamber 1 and a caramelization chamber 3. A discharge port 11 is installed at the bottom of the constant temperature chamber 1, and a drive motor 12 is installed at the top of the constant temperature chamber 1. The output end of the drive motor 12 is connected to a stirring rod 13. A cooling water tank 2 is arranged outside the constant temperature chamber 1, and a water pump 21 is installed inside the cooling water tank 2. A diversion pipe 22 is connected above the water pump 21 via a pipe, and a cooling ring pipe 23 and a cooling coil 24 are connected to the outside of the diversion pipe 22. The end of the cooling ring pipe 23 and the cooling coil 24 away from the cooling water tank 2 is connected to a second cooling water tank 25 via the diversion pipe 22. A second water pump 26 is installed at the top of the second cooling water tank 25, and the upper part of the second water pump 26... A return pipe 27 is connected to the cooling water tank 2. Cooling fans 4 are symmetrically installed on the outside of the cooling water tank 2. The coking box 3 is installed on top of the constant temperature box 1, and a drive motor 31 is installed on top of the coking box 3. A stirring rod 32 is connected below the drive motor 31. A heating plate 33 is installed at the bottom of the coking box 3. A conveying pipe 34 is connected to the outside of the coking box 3, and a drive motor 35 is connected to the top of the conveying pipe 34. A spiral conveying rod 36 is connected below the drive motor 35. The caramelized syrup enters the constant temperature box 1. A water pump 21 delivers the coolant from the cooling water tank 2 to the cooling ring pipe 23 and cooling coil 24 to cool the syrup inside the constant temperature box 1. During the cooling process, the drive motor 12 drives the stirring rod 32. Stirring rod 13 rotates to agitate the syrup, ensuring uniform temperature and facilitating the cooling of the caramelized syrup to a suitable temperature, thus guaranteeing the caramelization effect. Cooling ring pipe 23 and cooling coil 24 are distributed within the jacket of the constant temperature chamber 1. The cooling ring pipe 23, in conjunction with the cooling coil 24, reliably and comprehensively cools the caramelized syrup inside the constant temperature chamber 1. The end of the return pipe 27 furthest from water pump 26 is connected to cooling water tank 2. Water pump 26 transports coolant from cooling water tank 25 to cooling water tank 2 through the return pipe 27, forming a cooling cycle. The branch pipe 22 is parallel to the axis of the constant temperature chamber 1, allowing for convenient and rapid delivery of coolant to the cooling tank. The cooling coil 24 and the connecting point between the stirring rod 32 and the coking box 3 are equipped with bearings. These bearings effectively reduce friction during the rotation of the stirring rod 32, making its rotation more reliable and stable. The outer side of the conveying pipe 34 is wrapped with an insulation layer. The drive motor 35 drives the spiral conveying rod 36 to rotate, cooperating with the conveying pipe 34 to transport the caramelized syrup inside the coking box 3 to the constant temperature chamber 1. During transport, the insulation layer effectively prevents the loss of temperature from the caramelized syrup, preventing its temperature from dropping too quickly.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When using the device, syrup is injected into the device, and the heating plate 33 heats the syrup. During the heating process, the drive motor 31 drives the stirring rod 32 to continuously stir the syrup. After caramelization, the valve on the conveying pipe 34 is opened, and the drive motor 35 drives the spiral conveying rod 36 to rotate and transport the syrup into the constant temperature chamber 1. The water pump 21 transports the coolant in the cooling water tank 2 to the cooling ring pipe 23 and the cooling coil 24 through the diversion pipe 22 to cool the syrup in the constant temperature chamber 1. The cooling water passes through the constant temperature chamber 1 and then through the water... Pump 21 enters the interior of cooling water tank 25. Pump 26 transports the coolant inside cooling water tank 25 to cooling water tank 2 through return pipe 27 to form a cooling cycle. During the cooling process, drive motor 12 drives stirring rod 13 to rotate and stir the syrup, ensuring the uniformity of the syrup temperature. This facilitates the caramelization of the syrup to drop to a suitable temperature, ensuring the caramelization effect of the syrup. When needed, the caramelized syrup can be discharged through discharge port 11. Through the above method, the temperature of the syrup can be dropped to a suitable temperature evenly and quickly, ensuring the caramelization effect of the syrup.
