Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage processing technology, and in particular to a high-temperature sterilization device for beverage processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the beverage processing industry, high-temperature sterilization is a crucial step in ensuring product quality and safety. High-temperature sterilization effectively kills microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast, and mold in beverages. The principle behind this is that the high-temperature environment damages microbial cells, causing protein denaturation and cell membrane rupture, ultimately leading to microbial death. This process plays a vital role in extending the shelf life of beverages and ensuring consumer safety.

[0003] In the prior art, traditional high-temperature sterilization pots have significant drawbacks in use. For example, after high-temperature sterilization, beverages usually need to cool naturally before subsequent processing and packaging can be completed, which directly affects processing efficiency and also wastes residual heat. Therefore, this utility model proposes a high-temperature sterilization device for beverage processing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a high-temperature sterilization device for beverage processing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A high-temperature sterilization device for beverage processing includes a high-temperature sterilizer and a cooling box. The high-temperature sterilizer has a first stirring mechanism inside for stirring materials. A feed pipe is located at the lower end of the high-temperature sterilizer. A cooling coil is installed inside the cooling box. One end of the cooling coil is connected to the feed pipe via a connecting pipe, and the other end of the cooling coil passes through the side wall of the cooling box and is located outside the cooling box. Cooling water is provided inside the cooling box. A second stirring mechanism is also provided inside the cooling box for stirring the cooling water. A circulating pump is installed on the side wall of the cooling box. The circulating pump is connected to the cooling box via a hot water inlet pipe. A heat exchanger is installed at the upper end of the cooling box. The heat exchanger is connected to the circulating pump via a hot water outlet pipe, and the heat exchanger is connected to the cooling box via a cold water outlet pipe.

[0007] Preferably, the first stirring mechanism includes a first rotating rod rotatably connected between the bottom and the top of the inner cavity of the high-temperature sterilizer, and a plurality of first stirring blades are fixedly sleeved on the first rotating rod.

[0008] Preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the upper end of the high-temperature sterilizer, and the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first rotating rod.

[0009] Preferably, the second stirring mechanism includes a second rotating rod rotatably connected to the bottom of the cooling tank, the second rotating rod passing through the gap of the cooling coil, and a second stirring blade fixedly sleeved on the second rotating rod.

[0010] Preferably, a drain pipe is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cooling tank, and the drain pipe is connected to the end of the cooling coil away from the connecting pipe.

[0011] Preferably, an axial flow fan blade is fixedly sleeved on the upper end of the second rotating rod, and the axial flow fan blade is located directly below the cold water outlet pipe.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. By setting up a cooling box, after high-temperature sterilization, the material is fed through the feeding pipe. During the feeding process, the material enters the cooling coil through the connecting pipe. When the material passes through the cooling box, it is cooled by the cooling water, which can improve the processing efficiency. At the same time, the circulating pump can draw out the cooling water and discharge it into the heat exchange unit for heat exchange, so that the high-temperature cooling water is cooled down and re-enters the cooling box, avoiding the cooling water temperature from rising and affecting the cooling effect. At the same time, the heat exchange unit can recover heat and avoid waste of residual heat.

[0014] 2. By setting up a first stirring mechanism, when the high-temperature sterilizer is in use, the output shaft of the drive motor rotates, which drives the first rotating rod to rotate, thereby driving the first stirring blade to rotate, which can heat the material evenly, making it heat evenly and improving the sterilization effect.

[0015] 3. By setting a second stirring mechanism, the cooling water discharged from the heat exchange unit directly splashes onto the axial fan blades. The axial fan blades rotate under the splashing, which drives the second rotating rod to rotate, thereby driving the second stirring blades to rotate, thus stirring the cooling water in the cooling tank. This allows the cooling water to fully contact the cooling coils and improves the cooling effect. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-5 A high-temperature sterilization device for beverage processing includes a high-temperature sterilizer 1 and a cooling box 3. The high-temperature sterilizer 1 is equipped with a first stirring mechanism for stirring materials. The first stirring mechanism includes a first rotating rod 10 rotatably connected between the bottom and top of the high-temperature sterilizer 1. Multiple sets of first stirring blades 9 are fixedly sleeved on the first rotating rod 10. A motor 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the high-temperature sterilizer 1. The output shaft of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first rotating rod 10. A feed pipe is provided at the upper end of the high-temperature sterilizer 1 for materials to enter.

[0024] Specifically, a feeding pipe 6 is provided at the lower end of the high-temperature sterilizer 1, and a cooling coil 15 is installed inside the cooling box 3. One end of the cooling coil 15 is connected to the feeding pipe 6 through a connecting pipe 11, and the other end of the cooling coil 15 passes through the side wall of the cooling box 3 and is located outside the cooling box 3. Cooling water is provided inside the cooling box 3, and a second stirring mechanism for stirring the cooling water is provided inside the cooling box 3. The second stirring mechanism includes a second rotating rod 12 rotatably connected to the bottom of the cooling box 3. The second rotating rod 12 passes through the gap of the cooling coil 15, and a second stirring blade 13 is fixedly sleeved on the second rotating rod 12.

[0025] Specifically, a circulating pump 4 is installed on the side wall of the cooling box 3. The circulating pump 4 is connected to the cooling box 3 through a hot water inlet pipe 14. A heat exchange unit 5 is installed at the upper end of the cooling box 3. The heat exchange unit 5 can recover the exchanged heat. The heat exchange unit 5 is connected to the circulating pump 4 through a hot water outlet pipe 8. The heat exchange unit 5 is connected to the cooling box 3 through a cold water outlet pipe 16. A drain pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cooling box 3. The drain pipe 7 is connected to the end of the cooling coil 15 away from the connecting pipe 11. An axial flow fan blade 17 is fixedly sleeved on the upper end of the second rotating rod 12. The axial flow fan blade 17 is located directly below the cold water outlet pipe 16.

[0026] In use, the material is poured into the high-temperature sterilizer 1 for high-temperature sterilization. The output shaft of the drive motor 2 rotates, driving the first rotating rod 10 to rotate, which in turn drives the first stirring blade 9 to rotate. This ensures uniform heating of the material, improving the sterilization effect. After high-temperature sterilization, the material is fed through the feeding pipe 6. During the feeding process, the material enters the cooling coil 15 through the connecting pipe 11. As the material passes through the cooling tank 3, it is cooled by the cooling water, which improves processing efficiency. Simultaneously, the circulating pump 4 extracts the cooling water and discharges it into the heat exchanger. Heat exchange occurs within the heat exchange unit 5, cooling the high-temperature cooling water before it re-enters the cooling tank 3. This prevents the cooling water temperature from rising and affecting the cooling effect. Simultaneously, the heat exchange unit 5 can recover heat, avoiding waste of residual heat. The cooling water discharged from the heat exchange unit 5 directly washes onto the axial flow fan blades 17. The axial flow fan blades 16 rotate under the washing action, thereby driving the second rotating rod 12 to rotate, which in turn drives the second stirring blades 13 to rotate, thus agitating the cooling water in the cooling tank 3. This ensures that the cooling water and cooling coil 15 are in full contact, improving the cooling effect. The cooled material is then discharged through the drain pipe 7.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
