Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of butter refining and processing equipment, specifically a vacuum deodorization device in the butter refining process. Background Technology

[0002] The refining process of butter produces off-odors, so vacuum deodorization is a key step in the refining process. This aims to remove off-odor components (such as free fatty acids, aldehydes, ketones, etc.) and volatile substances from the butter, thereby improving its purity, color, and stability.

[0003] In existing technologies, conventional deodorization devices directly discharge the deodorization-generated gas to the outside of the device. However, the deodorization-generated gas can be harmful to health. For example, ammonia is a colorless, toxic gas with a strong, pungent odor. Long-term exposure to this environment can affect the health of workers. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a vacuum deodorization device for the butter refining process, which can filter and discharge the gas generated during deodorization.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A vacuum deodorization device for the tallow refining process is provided, comprising a deodorization barrel, a support frame fixedly connected to the outer wall of the deodorization barrel, an air pump fixedly connected to the upper surface of the deodorization barrel, an air inlet fixedly connected to the inside of the deodorization barrel, and a connecting pipe fixedly connected to the air outlet of the air pump. A support rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame, and a filter box is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support rod. The end of the connecting pipe away from the air pump is fixedly connected to the left side of the inside of the filter box.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. This utility model uses an air pump to extract the gas generated during deodorization inside the deodorization tank and discharge it through a connecting pipe to the inside of the filter box for filtration. After entering the filter box, the gas passes through three mounting plates, where activated carbon plates inside the mounting plates adsorb and filter the gas, preventing it from affecting the health of the staff.

[0013] 2. This utility model allows the activated carbon plate to be removed and replaced by pulling the pull plate upwards, causing the locking shaft to slide out of the interior of the mounting plate. The mounting plate is then pulled out of the placement groove by the pull rod, and the locking pin is then removed. After the tallow is refined, it produces odor. The tallow is added into the deodorizing tank through the feed pipe. The air pump is started to extract the gas inside the deodorizing tank to create a vacuum. The controller controls the electric heating tube to heat the deodorizing tank, raising the internal temperature of the tank so that the tallow reaches the temperature required for deodorization. The motor is then started, driving the stirring rod and stirring blade to rotate and stir the tallow to assist in deodorization. After deodorization is completed, the valve is opened, and the tallow is discharged through the discharge pipe and valve and sent to the cooling device for cooling. Attached Figure Description

A stirring rod 6 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 5. A stirring blade 601 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the stirring rod 6. The outer wall of the stirring blade 601 is in contact with the inner wall of the deodorizing tank 2. The motor 5 drives the stirring rod 6 and the stirring blade 601 to rotate and stir the tallow. The motor 5 is located in the middle of the upper surface of the deodorizing tank 2. The feed pipe 4 is located at the upper part of the interior of the deodorizing tank 2, to the left of the motor 5. An air pump 201 is located to the right of the motor 5. An electric heating element 7 is slidably connected inside the deodorizing tank 2. The electric heating element 7 can heat the deodorizing tank 2, thereby heating the butter to the temperature required for deodorization. Multiple electric heating elements 7 are provided.

[0027] Working Principle: In operation, butter is first added to the deodorizing tank 2 through the feed pipe 4. The air pump 201 is then started to extract gas from the deodorizing tank 2 and transport it to the filter box 3 via the connecting pipe 202. The air pump 201 operates continuously, maintaining a vacuum inside the deodorizing tank 2 and continuously supplying the deodorized gas to the filter box 3 for filtration. The motor 5 is started, driving the stirring rod 6 and stirring blade 601 to rotate and stir the butter. Simultaneously, the electric heating element 7 is activated to heat the deodorizing tank 2, raising the butter temperature to the required level for deodorization. The deodorized gas enters from the left side of the filter box 3, passes through its interior, and exits from the right side. As the gas flows within the filter box 3, it undergoes three... An installation plate 303 is provided, and an activated carbon plate 308 is installed inside the installation plate 303. The activated carbon plate 308 can adsorb and filter the gas generated during deodorization, preventing it from affecting the health of the staff and also benefiting the environment. When the activated carbon plate 308 needs to be replaced, pull the pull plate 305 upward. The pull plate 305 drives the locking shaft 306 to move upward and disengage from the inside of the installation plate 303. At this time, the pull rod 304 can be pulled outward, causing the installation plate 303 to slide outward and disengage from the inside of the placement groove 302. Thus, the activated carbon plate 308 can be removed from the inside of the filter box 3. Then, the locking pin 309 is pulled out, causing the locking pin 309 to disengage from the inside of the activated carbon plate 308 and the installation plate 303. Thus, the activated carbon plate 308 can be removed for replacement. Disassembly and replacement are convenient.
