Detailed Implementation
[0021] Example: A safe sterilization device for soybean milk powder production, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the device includes a support frame 1, a sterilization chamber 2, an outer shell 3, a controller 4, ultraviolet sterilization lamps 5, a feed pipe 6, a sealing cap 7, a smart pump 11, a microwave generator 12, and a stirring mechanism. The sterilization chamber 2 is mounted on the top of the support frame 1. The outer shell 3 is fixedly fitted onto the outside of the sterilization chamber 2. The controller 4 is bolted to the front left side of the outer shell 3. Four ultraviolet sterilization lamps 5 are symmetrically distributed on the top of the sterilization chamber 2. The ultraviolet sterilization lamps 5 are electrically connected to the controller 4. The feed pipe 6 is connected to and communicates with the upper left side of the outer shell 3. The feed pipe 6 is higher on the left and lower on the right, and the horizontal inclination angle of the feed pipe 6 is 10 to 20 degrees. The sealing cap 7 is threaded to the left inlet of the feed pipe 6. The smart pump 11 is bolted to the bottom of the sterilization chamber 2. The smart pump 11 is electrically connected to the controller 4. The microwave generator 12 is embedded in the middle left side of the outer shell 3. The microwave generator 12 is electrically connected to the controller 4. A stirring mechanism is provided on the top of the sterilization chamber 2.
[0022] When this device is used to sterilize soy milk powder in the production line, the operator must first place the loading bucket directly below the intelligent pump 11, then manually turn the sealing cap 7 counterclockwise to open it, and then pour the soy milk powder to be sterilized into the feeding pipe 6. When the soy milk powder enters from the left inlet of the feeding pipe 6, due to the inclination of the pipe, the soy milk powder can move smoothly to the lower right and enter the sterilization chamber 2. The inclination design of the pipe is conducive to the smooth conveying of soy milk powder and avoids blockage during the feeding process, ensuring that the soy milk powder can enter the sterilization chamber 2 quickly and evenly.
[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the stirring device includes a rotary motor 8, a stirring rod 9, and a stirring paddle 10. The top of the sterilization chamber 2 is bolted to the rotary motor 8 with its output shaft facing downward. The rotary motor 8 is electrically connected to the controller 4. The stirring rod 9 is installed on the bottom output shaft of the rotary motor 8. Three stirring paddles 10 are arranged in a ring array on the outer side of the stirring rod 9.
[0024] After all the soy milk powder to be sterilized has entered the sterilization chamber 2, the operator can start the ultraviolet sterilization lamp 5, the rotating motor 8 and the microwave generator 12 through the control controller 4. The output shaft at the bottom of the rotating motor 8 will drive the stirring rod 9 to rotate, so that the stirring paddle 10 on the outside of the stirring rod 9 will rotate accordingly, ensuring that the soy milk powder in the sterilization chamber 2 is fully rotated and stirred, so that the soy milk powder maintains good fluidity throughout the sterilization process. Microwaves and ultraviolet rays can better penetrate the soy milk powder, achieving all-round deep sterilization, effectively improving sterilization efficiency and quality, and ensuring that the soy milk powder meets hygiene standards after sterilization.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a viewing panel 18, which is installed in the middle of the front side of the housing 3, and the viewing panel 18 is made of acrylic material.
[0026] Operators can directly observe the flow of soy milk powder in sterilization chamber 2, its stirring status, and various changes during the sterilization process through the visual panel 18.
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a steam supply system. The steam supply system is located on the front side of the outer shell 3 and extends into the bottom of the sterilization chamber 2. The steam supply system includes a steam generator 15, steam pipes 16 and nozzles 17. The steam generator 15 is bolted to the front side of the outer shell 3. The steam generator 15 is electrically connected to the controller 4. Steam pipes 16 are installed at the left and right outlets of the steam generator 15, respectively. The steam pipes 16 extend into the bottom of the sterilization chamber 2. A nozzle 17 is fixedly connected to the rear outlet of each of the two steam pipes 16.
[0028] When it is necessary to supplement the heating of the soy milk powder or adjust the humidity inside the sterilization chamber 2, the operator needs to start the steam generator 15 through the control controller 4. The steam generator 15 starts working and generates high-temperature steam. The generated steam is transported through the steam pipes 16 on the left and right sides, and finally sprayed into the bottom of the sterilization chamber 2 from the nozzles 17 at the rear outlet of the two steam pipes 16. The injection of steam can make the temperature and humidity inside the sterilization chamber 2 reach suitable conditions, further optimize the sterilization environment, and improve the sterilization effect. The steam can also assist the microwave in heating the soy milk powder, ensuring that the soy milk powder reaches the ideal sterilization state in a short time, and ensuring the quality and safety of the soy milk powder.
[0029] After the soy milk powder in the sterilization chamber 2 has been sterilized, the operator can start the intelligent pump 11 through the control controller 4. The intelligent pump 11 can pump out the sterilized soy milk powder, which will fall into the loading bucket directly below the intelligent pump 11. When the loading bucket is about to be full, the operator needs to replace it with a new loading bucket in time.
[0030] When the soy milk powder is sterilized and the device needs to be cleaned, before cleaning, the operator must first turn off the microwave generator 12 and the ultraviolet sterilization lamp 5 through the control controller 4, and start the intelligent pump 11 to completely discharge the residual soy milk powder material in the sterilization chamber 2. Then, inject the cleaning liquid (such as food-grade acidic or alkaline cleaning agent) into the feed pipe 6. Under the operation of the stirring mechanism, the cleaning liquid is rotated and stirred. Under the rotation of the stirring paddle 10, the inner wall, bottom and dead corners of the sterilization chamber 2 are thoroughly rinsed. The steam supply system can be started at the same time. The steam generator 15 generates high-temperature steam, which is atomized and sprayed out through the nozzle 17 to form a high-temperature and high-pressure rinsing environment with the cleaning liquid, which accelerates the dissolution of stubborn stains and kills residual microorganisms.
[0031] After cleaning, the operator needs to start the intelligent pump 11 through the control controller 4. The intelligent pump 11 will completely discharge the waste liquid through the bottom outlet of the sterilization box 2, and then inject clean water into the feed pipe 6. Repeat the stirring and steam rinsing steps until the rinsing water is clean and free of residue. The operator can observe the rinsing effect in real time by watching the visual panel 18 to ensure that there is no cleaning agent or stain residue.
[0032] Once the cleaning process is complete, the operator can shut off the electrical components of the device using the control controller 4.
[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a safety protection mechanism. The safety protection mechanism is provided on the left side of the outer casing 3. The safety protection mechanism includes an inert gas fire extinguisher 13 and an emergency button 14. The inert gas fire extinguisher 13 is connected to the left side of the outer casing 3 by bolts. The emergency button 14 is installed on the front left side of the outer casing 3, and the inert gas fire extinguisher 13 is electrically connected to the emergency button 14.
[0034] In the event of an emergency such as a fire inside the sterilization chamber 2, the operator can quickly press the emergency button 14, which will activate the inert gas fire extinguisher 13, releasing inert gas. Inert gas does not support combustion and can quickly reduce the oxygen concentration inside the sterilization chamber 2, thereby effectively suppressing the spread of the fire, minimizing fire damage, ensuring the safe operation of the sterilization device, and providing reliable safety protection for operators and equipment.
