[0001] This utility model relates to the field of orange juice production cooling technology, and in particular to a rapid cooling device for hot filling of orange juice. Background Technology
[0002] In the hot filling process of orange juice, rapid cooling after high-temperature filling (usually ≥85℃) is a key step to ensure the preservation of the product's taste, color, and vitamins. When cooling the orange juice bottles, it is necessary to use orange juice production hot filling cooling equipment.
[0003] However, existing rapid cooling equipment for hot filling in orange juice production has the following disadvantages:
[0004] When cooling orange juice bottles, the water bath cooling method takes a long time (≥10 minutes), and the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the bottle causes the glass bottle to crack. Direct low-temperature spraying after hot filling can easily cause thermal shock damage to the bottle body. In addition, the cooling water consumption is large and the sealing between equipment is poor. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a highly practical, simple, and structurally simple rapid cooling device for hot filling of orange juice. It solves the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the long cooling time (≥10 minutes) of water bath cooling method for cooling orange juice bottles, the risk of glass bottle shattering due to temperature difference between the inside and outside of the bottle, the easy occurrence of thermal shock damage to the bottle body when directly sprayed with low temperature after hot filling, the large consumption of cooling water, and the poor sealing between equipment.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a rapid cooling orange juice production hot filling and cooling device, including a guide frame, a feed inlet fixedly installed at one end of the guide frame, protective covers fixedly installed on both sides of the surface of the guide frame, a cooling component for cooling fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the protective cover, a collection frame fixedly installed at the other end of the guide frame, and a sealing component fixedly installed between the protective covers.
[0007] Optionally, the cooling component includes a storage frame fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the protective cover, a guide tube fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the storage frame, a connecting pipe fixedly installed at one end of the guide tube, and a plurality of nozzles fixedly installed on the surface of the connecting pipe.
[0008] Optionally, the surface of the storage frame is provided with a mounting groove, and an observation plate is fixedly installed inside the mounting groove. The surface of the observation plate is provided with a scale for observation.
[0009] Optionally, the sealing assembly includes a sealing cover fixedly installed between the protective covers, a rotating groove is provided in the middle of the interior of the sealing cover, a rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the rotating groove, and sealing plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the surface of the rotating rod.
[0010] Optionally, the size of the sealing plate is adapted to the size of the cavity inside the guide frame, and the sealing plate isolates the cavity.
[0011] Optionally, the protective cover has recessed grooves on both sides of its surface, and an exhaust fan is fixedly installed inside the recessed grooves.
[0012] This utility model provides a rapid cooling device for hot-filling orange juice production, which has the following features:
[0013] Beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. This rapid cooling orange juice production hot filling and cooling equipment, through the setting of guide frame, protective cover and cooling components, during use, the orange juice bottle moves downward through the guide frame. When the orange juice bottle moves, the cooling components on the protective cover will cool the orange juice bottle inside the guide frame, which improves the efficiency of rapid cooling of orange juice, avoids the risk of bottle thermal shock damage caused by direct low temperature spray after hot filling, and avoids large consumption of cooling water.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a rapid cooling orange juice production hot filling and cooling device, including a guide frame 1, a feed inlet 2 fixedly installed at one end of the guide frame 1, protective covers 3 fixedly installed on both sides of the surface of the guide frame 1, an embedding groove opened on both sides of the surface of the protective cover 3, an exhaust fan fixedly installed inside the embedding groove, a cooling component 4 for cooling fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the protective cover 3, a collection frame 5 fixedly installed at the other end of the guide frame 1, and a sealing component 6 fixedly installed between the protective covers 3.
[0023] The cooling component 4 includes a storage frame 41 fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the protective cover 3. A guide tube 42 is fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the storage frame 41. A connecting tube 43 is fixedly installed at one end of the guide tube 42. Several nozzles 44 are fixedly installed on the surface of the connecting tube 43. An installation groove is opened on the surface of the storage frame 41. An observation plate is fixedly installed inside the installation groove. The surface of the observation plate is provided with scale for observation.
[0024] During use, the operator turns on the water pump inside the storage box 41. After the water pump is turned on, water will enter the interior of the connecting pipe 43 through the guide pipe 42. The water inside the connecting pipe 43 will be sprayed out through the nozzle 44. The water flow will cool down the orange juice bottle inside the guide box 1. The water temperature inside the storage box 41 is different, which can avoid uneven cooling inside the orange juice bottle.
[0025] The sealing assembly 6 includes a sealing cover 61 fixedly installed between the protective covers 3. A rotating groove is provided in the middle of the interior of the sealing cover 61. A rotating rod 62 is rotatably connected inside the rotating groove. Sealing plates 63 are fixedly installed on both sides of the surface of the rotating rod 62. The size of the sealing plate 63 is adapted to the size of the cavity inside the guide frame 1. The sealing plate 63 isolates the cavity.
[0026] During use, the orange juice bottle is fed into the guide frame 1 through the feed inlet 2. The orange juice bottle will then move downwards along the cavity inside the guide frame 1, impacting the sealing plate 63. After being impacted, the sealing plate 63 rotates via the rotating rod 62. After the rotating rod 62 rotates, the sealing plate 63 will return to its original position due to its weight at the bottom, sealing the protective cover 3. The sealing cover 61 can be used to install the rotating rod 62.
[0027] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:
[0028] First, turn on the water pump inside the storage box 41. After the water pump is turned on, water will enter the interior of the connecting pipe 43 through the guide pipe 42. The water entering the connecting pipe 43 will be sprayed out through the nozzle 44. The water flow will cool the orange juice bottle inside the guide box 1. The water temperature inside the storage box 41 is different, which can avoid uneven cooling inside the orange juice bottle. Then, the orange juice bottle is guided into the interior of the guide box 1 through the feed port 2. The orange juice bottle will then move downward along the cavity inside the guide box 1. The orange juice bottle will impact the sealing plate 63. After being impacted, the sealing plate 63 will rotate through the rotating rod 62. After the rotating rod 62 rotates, the sealing plate 63 will return to its original position due to the weight at the bottom, sealing the protective cover 3. The sealing cover 61 can be used to install the rotating rod 62.
