[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. Equipped with a stirring mechanism, during the sugar-making process, the drive motor is started to drive the stirring rod to stir the raw materials, which facilitates rapid evaporation. At the same time, during the stirring process, the auger drives the raw materials adsorbed on the inner side wall of the evaporation tank to rise to the guide ring.

[0016] 3. A steam collection mechanism is provided. During the sugar making process, the moisture in the raw materials is evaporated. The evaporated water vapor reaches the inner wall of the guide frame through the circular pipe. After the water vapor is adsorbed on the inner wall of the guide frame for a long time, it condenses into water droplets. Then the water droplets are guided through the guide frame to the inside of the collection tank for collection. Attached Figure Description

A liquid level monitoring mechanism 8 is connected to the upper end of the cover plate 3. A steam collection mechanism 9 is connected to the upper end of the cover plate 3.

[0026] The stirring mechanism 7 includes a drive motor 71, a connecting column 72, a stirring rod 73, an auger 75, and a guide ring 76. The drive motor 71 is connected to the lower end of the evaporation tank 1. The output shaft of the drive motor 71 is connected to the connecting column 72. The stirring rod 73 is arranged at equal angles on the side of the connecting column 72. The connecting rod 74 is symmetrically arranged on the side of the connecting column 72. The auger 75 is connected to the connecting rod 74. The guide ring 76 is connected to the inner wall of the evaporation tank 1. The connecting column 72 is rotatably arranged inside the evaporation tank 1. The outer diameter of the auger 75 is the same as the inner diameter of the evaporation tank 1. The side of the auger 75 is in contact with the inner wall of the evaporation tank 1. During the sugar making process, the drive motor 71 is started to drive the connecting column 72 to rotate. During the rotation of the connecting column 72, the stirring rod 73 is driven to stir the raw materials, thereby facilitating rapid evaporation.

[0027] The liquid level monitoring mechanism 8 includes a housing 81, a circular plate 82, a threaded rod 83, a circular disc 85, a sliding rod 88, a connecting block 89, and a liquid level sensor 810. The housing 81 is connected to a cover plate 3. Circular plates 82 are symmetrically connected to the upper and lower parts of the housing 81. The circular plates 82 are rotatably connected to the threaded rod 83, which is connected to a circular rod 84. A circular disc 85 is located inside the housing 81. Limiting blocks 86 are symmetrically arranged on the sides of the circular disc 85. Limiting grooves 87 are symmetrically formed inside the housing 81. Sliding rods 88 are symmetrically arranged at the lower end of the circular disc 85. Connecting blocks 89 are connected to the lower ends of the sliding rods 88. A liquid level sensor 810 is located at the lower end of the connecting block 89. One circular plate 82 is positioned above the cover plate 3, and the other circular plate 810... 2. Set below the cover plate 3, the limiting block 86 is slidably set inside the limiting groove 87. The circular disc 85 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 83, the circular disc 85 is slidably connected to the slide rod 88, and the slide rod 88 is slidably connected to the circular plate 82. The position of the liquid level sensor 810 is adjusted according to the required liquid level height for sugar making. During use, pulling the circular rod 84 drives the threaded rod 83 to rotate. During the rotation of the threaded rod 83, the limiting block 86 on the side of the circular disc 85 slides inside the limiting groove 87, and at the same time drives the circular disc 85 to rise and fall. During the rising and falling of the circular disc 85, the liquid level sensor 810 connected to the lower end of the slide rod 88 rises and falls, thereby changing the sensing position of the liquid level sensor 810, so as to facilitate the control of the liquid level height.

The upper end of the collection tank 92 is magnetically connected to the guide frame 93. The guide frame 93 is located above the circular pipe 91. During the sugar making process, the water in the raw materials is evaporated. The evaporated water vapor reaches the inner wall of the guide frame 93 through the circular pipe 91. At the same time, when the water vapor adsorbed on the inner wall of the guide frame 93 condenses into water droplets, the water droplets are guided to the inside of the collection tank 92 for collection through the guide frame 93.

[0029] Working principle: According to Figures 4 to 5 First, the position of the liquid level sensor 810 is adjusted according to the required liquid level height for sugar production. During use, pulling the circular rod 84 drives the threaded rod 83 to rotate. During the rotation of the threaded rod 83, the limiting block 86 on the side of the circular disc 85 slides inside the limiting groove 87, and at the same time drives the circular disc 85 to rise and fall. During the rising and falling of the circular disc 85, the liquid level sensor 810 connected to the lower end of the sliding rod 88 is raised and lowered, thereby changing the sensing position of the liquid level sensor 810, so as to facilitate the control of the liquid level height.

[0030] according to Figures 1 to 3 Then, open the sealing block 5 and add the raw material into the evaporation tank 1 through the feed port 4. If the internal pressure of the evaporation tank 1 is too high during use, it can be released through the pressure relief hole 6. During the sugar making process, start the drive motor 71 to drive the connecting column 72 to rotate. During the rotation of the connecting column 72, drive the stirring rod 73 to stir the raw material, so as to facilitate rapid evaporation. During the stirring process, the connecting rod 74 drives the auger 75 to lift the raw material adsorbed on the inner side wall of the evaporation tank 1. When the raw material rises to the guide ring 76, it is then guided by the guide ring 76 to drip into the raw material, so as to facilitate full stirring and evaporation.

[0031] according to Figure 6 During the sugar making process, the water in the raw materials is evaporated. The evaporated water vapor reaches the inner wall of the guide frame 93 through the circular tube 91. At the same time, when the water vapor adsorbed on the inner wall of the guide frame 93 condenses into water droplets, the water droplets are guided to the inside of the collection tank 92 for collection through the guide frame 93.

[0032] In this device, the drive motor 71 and the liquid level sensor 810 are connected to an external power source via a power cord and then started. The drive motor 71 and the liquid level sensor 810 are known and existing technologies on the market and will not be described in detail here.
