[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a cooling and filling tank for traditional Chinese medicine liquid, so as to solve the technical problem of cooling the traditional Chinese medicine liquid while stirring the liquid.

[0014] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed description of a cooling and filling barrel for traditional Chinese medicine liquid.
[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a cooling filling tank 1 for traditional Chinese medicine liquid, including a filling tank 1 body, a filling tank 1 having an inlet 2 and an outlet 3, the outlet 3 being located at the bottom of the filling tank, a stirring device and a cooling pipe 6 being installed inside the filling tank, the cooling pipe 6 being installed through the top and bottom of the filling tank 1.
[0016] Its working principle and beneficial effects are as follows: The filling tank 1 serves as the core container, with the inlet 2 for introducing high-temperature herbal liquid and the outlet 3 located at the bottom for easy discharge. The stirring device inside the tank is driven by a power source (such as an electric motor) to rotate the stirring components, dynamically mixing the liquid and preventing sedimentation. The cooling pipe 6 adopts a through-loop design, extending from the top to the bottom of the tank and then turning back to form a circulation channel. The low-temperature cooling medium generated by the external refrigeration equipment continuously flows in the loop, exchanging heat with the liquid inside the tank through the pipe wall. After the heat of the liquid is absorbed by the cooling medium, it returns to the refrigeration equipment through the loop outlet for cooling, forming a closed-loop cooling cycle until the liquid temperature drops to the target range and is discharged from the outlet 3.
[0017] Synergistic effect of stirring and cooling: The stirring device breaks the static state of the liquid medicine, allowing the liquid medicine to fully contact the surface of the cooling tube 6, eliminating temperature stratification and improving heat exchange efficiency; the through-loop circuit expands the contact area and contact time between the cooling tube 6 and the liquid medicine, which can reduce the amount of cooling medium used and enhance the uniformity of cooling compared with a single straight tube design; it avoids the deposition of residual liquid medicine, and together with the stirring device, it can ensure that the temperature and composition of the finally discharged liquid medicine are consistent, reducing raw material waste.
[0018] Preferably, the liquid inlet 2 is equipped with a filter screen 8.
[0019] Its working principle and beneficial effects are as follows: it prevents larger particulate impurities from entering the barrel, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment; it reduces the filtration pressure in subsequent filling stages, lowers the risk of filling nozzle clogging, and ensures that the quality of the finished medicine meets the standards.
[0020] Preferably, the stirring device includes a stirring motor 4 located at the top center of the filling barrel, a stirring rod 5 fixedly connected to the stirring motor, and a stirring blade 9 detachably connected to one end of the stirring rod extending into the filling barrel.
[0021] Its working principle and beneficial effects are as follows: The stirring motor 4 is fixed at the center of the top of the tank and connected to the stirring rod 5 via a coupling or bolts. When the stirring motor 4 rotates, it drives the stirring rod 5 to rotate vertically. The lower end of the stirring rod 5 is connected to the stirring blade 9 via a detachable structure such as threads. The stirring blade 9 is usually designed as a slanted paddle, anchor, or turbine type. When rotating, it pushes the liquid to generate radial and axial flow, forming a vortex mixing effect. Disassembly is possible by simply loosening the connecting parts, allowing the stirring blade 9 to be removed for individual cleaning or replacement.
[0022] Preferably, a temperature controller is installed inside the filling barrel 1, and the cooling pipe 6 is connected to a refrigeration device located outside the filling barrel.
[0023] Its working principle and beneficial effects are as follows: the cooling pipe 6 is connected to an external refrigeration device via a metal pipe. The refrigeration device uses a compressor refrigeration cycle to lower the cooling medium to a set temperature (e.g., 5-15℃), and drives the medium to flow in the cooling pipe 6 circuit via a pump. When the medium flows through the internal circuit of the tank, it absorbs heat from the liquid medicine and rises in temperature. After returning to the refrigeration device, it is cooled by a condenser, forming a closed loop of "refrigeration device → cooling pipe 6 → refrigeration device," continuously removing heat from the liquid medicine. The independent refrigeration device can adjust its power according to the production scale to meet the cooling requirements of different batches of liquid medicine. The external refrigeration device reduces the number of mechanical parts inside the tank, lowers the risk of seal failure, and facilitates equipment inspection and maintenance, improving system reliability.
[0024] Preferably, a temperature controller is installed inside the filling tank 1, and a control panel 7 is installed outside the filling tank 1. The control panel 7 is electrically connected to the stirring motor 4, the refrigeration equipment and the temperature controller.
[0025] Its working principle and beneficial effects are as follows: The temperature controller is embedded in the inner wall of the container, which collects temperature signals in real time and converts them into electrical signals, transmitting them to the control panel 7. The control panel 7 has a built-in microprocessor with preset temperature thresholds (such as the target filling temperature ±2℃). When the liquid temperature is higher than the upper limit, the cooling equipment is automatically activated and the speed of the stirring motor 4 is increased to accelerate heat exchange; when the temperature approaches the lower limit, the cooling power is reduced or the system switches to a stirring and stabilization mode. Operators can set parameters through the buttons or touch screen on the control panel 7, and the system displays temperature curves, equipment operating status, and other information in real time.
[0026] It features automatic adjustment of cooling and stirring intensity without manual intervention, ensuring that the temperature of the medicine solution remains stable within the target range and avoiding excessive cooling or temperature fluctuations that could affect the efficacy of the medicine. The control panel 7 provides real-time feedback on the equipment status, making it easy for operators to monitor the production process and optimize process parameters (such as cooling time and stirring rate for different medicine solutions) by combining historical data, thereby improving production efficiency and quality consistency.

Furthermore, under the teachings of this utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model.
