Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-2This utility model provides a technical solution: a pasteurization tank for dairy products with a cooling function, comprising a sterilization tank body 1, with fixed frames 2 fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the sterilization tank body 1, a motor 7 fixedly connected to one side of the fixed frame 2, a fixed rod 24 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 7, one end of the fixed rod 24 being rotatably connected to the inner side of the fixed frame 2, multiple vertical bevel gears 25 fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed rod 24, a transverse bevel gear 26 being drivenly connected to the surface of the vertical bevel gears 25, a rotating rod 27 fixedly connected to the center of the transverse bevel gear 26, and multiple stirring rods 28 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 27, the stirring rods 28 located at the top and bottom being evenly distributed in the gaps of the circulation pipe 23, and a circulation pipe 23 being provided inside the sterilization tank body 1. A liquid inlet pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the circulation pipe 23. A first three-way pipe 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the liquid inlet pipe 10. A liquid outlet pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the circulation pipe 23. A second three-way pipe 29 is fixedly connected to one end of the liquid outlet pipe 22. One end of the first three-way pipe 15 and the liquid outlet pipe 22 are fixedly connected through and extend to the outside of the sterilization tank 1. A hot water tank 8 and a first water pump 11 are fixedly connected above the fixed frame 2 at the top. A heater 9 is fixedly connected to the surface of the hot water tank 8. A hot water pump pipe 12 and a hot water outlet pipe 13 are fixedly connected to both sides of the first water pump 11. One end of the hot water pump pipe 12 is fixedly connected through and extends into the hot water tank 8. One end of the hot water outlet pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the first three-way pipe 15. A heat exchanger is rotatably connected to the surface of the hot water outlet pipe 13. A water valve 14 is used. A fixing plate 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the sterilization tank 1. A cold water tank 16 and a second water pump 18 are fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing plate 3. A cooler 17 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cold water tank 16. A cold water suction pipe 19 and a cold water outlet pipe 20 are fixedly connected to both sides of the second water pump 18. One end of the cold water suction pipe 19 is fixedly inserted through and extends into the cold water tank 16. One end of the cold water outlet pipe 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first three-way pipe 15. A cold water valve 21 is rotatably connected to the surface of the cold water outlet pipe 20. The heater 9, cooler 17, motor 7, first water pump 11, and second water pump 18 are connected to the outside. Then, the heater 9 and cooler 17 are turned on to heat and cool the water in the hot water tank 8 and cold water tank 16 to the dairy products. The system requires a specific temperature. Then, by opening the hot water valve 14 and the first water pump 11, the first water pump 11 draws water from inside the hot water tank 8 through the hot water extraction pipe 12, then delivers it to the hot water outlet pipe 13, then through the hot water outlet pipe 13 to the first three-way pipe 15, then through the first three-way pipe 15 to the liquid inlet pipe 10, and finally through the liquid inlet pipe 10 to the circulation pipe 23. From there, the water is delivered to the second three-way pipe 29 (the top and bottom of the second three-way pipe 29 are connected to the hot water tank 8 and the cold water tank 16 respectively, and also have corresponding hot water valves 14 and cold water valves 21, allowing the hot water valve 14 to be opened during sterilization and the cold water valve 21 to be opened during cooling, thus achieving a circulation effect). This ultimately achieves the circulation purpose.This process sterilizes the dairy products in the sterilization tank 1. To ensure thorough sterilization, two motors 7 are activated. Motors 7 drive a fixed rod 24 to rotate, which in turn drives a vertical bevel gear 25. The vertical bevel gear 25 then drives a horizontal bevel gear 26, which in turn drives a rotating rod 27, ultimately rotating a stirring rod 28. This stirs the dairy products, achieving thorough sterilization. After sterilization, failure to cool the products promptly can affect their taste. Therefore, after sterilization, the hot water valve 14 is closed, and the cold water valve 21 and the second water pump 18 are opened. The second water pump 18 drives the cold water suction pipe 19 to transport cold water from the cold water tank 16 to the cold water outlet pipe 20. From there, the water is transported to the first three-way pipe 15 and then to the circulation pipe 23, thus cooling the dairy products. During cooling, the stirring rod 28 is also stirred by the motors 7 to accelerate the cooling process.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, a feed pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the sterilization tank 1, and a discharge pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sterilization tank 1. A discharge valve 6 is rotatably connected to the surface of the discharge pipe 5. Dairy products are transported into the sterilization tank 1 through the feed pipe 4, and the sterilized dairy products are recycled through the discharge pipe 5 by opening the discharge valve 6.

[0021] Working principle: During use, dairy products are transported into sterilization tank 1 through feed pipe 4, and heater 9, cooler 17, motor 7, first water pump 11 and second water pump 18 are respectively connected to the outside.

[0022] Then, the heater 9 and the cooler 17 are turned on to heat and cool the water in the hot water tank 8 and the cold water tank 16 to the required temperature for the dairy products, respectively. Then, by turning on the hot water valve 14 and the first water pump 11, the first water pump 11 draws water from the hot water tank 8 through the hot water pump pipe 12 and delivers it to the hot water outlet pipe 13. Then, it delivers the water through the hot water outlet pipe 13 to the first three-way pipe 15, then through the first three-way pipe 15 to the liquid inlet pipe 10, and finally through the liquid inlet pipe 10 to the circulation pipe 23. Finally, it delivers the water through the circulation pipe 23 to the second three-way pipe 29, thus achieving the purpose of circulation and sterilizing the dairy products in the sterilization tank 1.

[0023] To ensure thorough sterilization, two motors 7 are activated. Motors 7 drive the fixed rod 24 to rotate, which in turn drives the vertical bevel gear 25 to rotate. The vertical bevel gear 25 then drives the horizontal bevel gear 26 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod 27 to rotate, and finally drives the stirring rod 28 to rotate. This allows the dairy products to be stirred, achieving thorough sterilization.

[0024] If the product is not cooled down in time after sterilization, it will easily affect the subsequent taste. Therefore, after sterilization, the hot water valve 14 is closed and the cold water valve 21 and the second water pump 18 are opened. The second water pump 18 will drive the cold water pumping pipe 19 to transport the cold water in the cold water tank 16 to the cold water outlet pipe 20. The cold water is then transported through the cold water outlet pipe 20 to the bottom first three-way pipe 15, and then to the circulation pipe 23 to cool the dairy products. During the cooling process, the stirring rod 28 is also stirred by the motor 7 to accelerate the cooling. Finally, the product is recycled through the discharge pipe 5.

[0025] The above steps can thoroughly sterilize dairy products, and after sterilization, they can be cooled down faster to avoid affecting the subsequent taste.
