[0002] A hot-cold alternating catalyst is a device specifically designed for fruit wine brewing. Its purpose is to accelerate the fermentation and aging process of fruit wine through alternating hot and cold temperatures, thereby improving the flavor, taste, and yield. This type of catalyst promotes yeast and enzyme activity by regulating temperature changes, thus accelerating the conversion of fruit juice and the alcoholic fermentation process.
[0003] During the brewing process, temperature fluctuations and timely hot-cold alternation can significantly improve the fermentation efficiency of yeast and the release of aroma, thereby improving the taste and flavor of the final product. In the traditional fruit wine brewing process, simple temperature control equipment is usually used to heat or cool the wine. However, due to the low efficiency of the temperature control system, the hot-cold exchange process often cannot achieve efficient alternation and precise temperature regulation, making the fermentation process of fruit wine less precise, resulting in incomplete release of flavor substances, limited yeast activity, and thus affecting the quality of the wine. To address these issues, a hot-cold alternation catalyst for fruit wine brewing is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0021] 1. In this utility model, the cap is separated from the feed inlet by unscrewing the bolt and rotating the lifting rod, and black chokeberry wine is injected. Under the action of the spiral guide plate, the external equipment makes the wine circulate, increasing the contact with the heat exchange surface and improving the efficiency of heat exchange. The cooling liquid and heating liquid are introduced into the cooling pipe and heating pipe respectively, and the alternating temperature is precisely controlled to activate enzyme activity and yeast metabolism, promote the release of aroma substances and flavor formation. The cooling medium is sent to the plate heat exchanger through the connecting pipe, and then discharged after passing through the upper liquid outlet pipe, water supply pipe, heat exchange pipe, outlet pipe, lower liquid inlet pipe, plate heat exchanger, and lower liquid outlet pipe, ensuring that the temperature of the fruit wine changes rapidly and stably. This achieves efficient heat exchange catalysis in the fruit wine brewing process, especially for the needs of aroma release and flavor enhancement in black chokeberry winemaking.
[0022] 2. In this invention, when the plate heat exchanger needs cleaning, the upper outlet pipe and lower inlet pipe valves are closed, and water is injected through the upper inlet pipe and lower outlet pipe for forward and reverse flushing. The filter screen inside the mounting sleeve filters the cooling medium, reducing the cleaning frequency. When cleaning the filter screen, pull the handle to slide the mounting plate inside the mounting sleeve, squeezing the positioning head and spring, causing the positioning head to move into the through hole, and easily removing the filter screen for cleaning. This achieves convenient disassembly and cleaning of the filter screen, ensuring effective filtration of impurities in the cooling medium and reducing the cleaning frequency of the plate heat exchanger.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 An embodiment of this utility model provides a hot-cold alternating catalyst for fruit wine brewing, comprising a catalyst tank 1, an inlet 2 fixedly connected to the upper side of the catalyst tank 1, a spiral guide vane 9 fixedly connected inside the catalyst tank 1, and a hot-cold circulation assembly installed outside the catalyst tank 1. The hot-cold circulation assembly is used to activate the enzyme activity and yeast metabolism in the fruit wine, promote the release of aroma substances and the formation of flavor complexity. A heat exchange tube 11 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the catalyst tank 1, a water supply pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the inner side of the heat exchange tube 11, an upper liquid outlet pipe 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the water supply pipe 12, a plate heat exchanger 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the upper liquid outlet pipe 13, an upper liquid inlet pipe 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the plate heat exchanger 14, a lower liquid inlet pipe 19 and a lower liquid outlet pipe 20 are fixedly connected to the lower left and right sides of the plate heat exchanger 14, respectively, and an outlet pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the inner side of the heat exchange tube 11, with one end of the outlet pipe 18 fixedly connected inside the lower liquid inlet pipe 19.
[0031] The hot and cold circulation assembly includes a cooling pipe 6 and a heating pipe 7. The cooling pipe 6 and the heating pipe 7 are evenly wound and installed on the outside of the catalytic tank 1. The cooling pipe 6 and the heating pipe 7 are both connected to a positioning piece 8, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the catalytic tank 1. A discharge pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the catalytic tank 1. A heat exchange pipe 11 passes through the inside of the spiral guide vane 9 to the bottom of the catalytic tank 1. The inner wall of the catalytic tank 1 is designed to be corrosion resistant.
[0032] After the black chokeberry wine enters the catalytic tank 1, the internal spiral guide vanes 9 allow it to circulate through external equipment, increasing contact with the heat exchange surfaces and improving the efficiency of the heat exchange process. Cooling and heating liquids are introduced into the cooling pipes 6 and heating pipes 7 respectively, allowing for precise temperature control to activate enzyme activity and yeast metabolism in the wine, promoting the release of aroma compounds and the formation of complex flavors. The cooling medium is then fed into the plate heat exchanger 14 via the connecting pipe 16. Inside, the cooling medium is sent to the water supply pipe 12 through the upper liquid outlet pipe 13 and then to the interior of the heat exchange pipe 11 through the outlet pipe 18. After heat exchange, the cooling medium enters the lower liquid inlet pipe 19, plate heat exchanger 14 and lower liquid outlet pipe 20 in sequence, and then is discharged. This ensures rapid and stable temperature conversion of the black chokeberry wine liquid, realizing efficient hot and cold alternation catalysis in the wine brewing process. It is especially designed for the aroma release and flavor enhancement needs in black chokeberry wine brewing. The anti-corrosion design of the inner wall of the catalytic tank 1 improves the service life of the catalytic tank 1.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 One end of the upper liquid inlet pipe 15 is externally threaded to a mounting sleeve 17. A connecting pipe 16 is threaded to one side of the inside of the mounting sleeve 17. A mounting plate 21 is engaged inside the mounting sleeve 17. A filter screen 23 is fixedly connected inside the mounting plate 21. Two through holes 24 are opened on both sides of the inside of the mounting plate 21. A spring 25 is fixedly connected inside the through hole 24. A positioning head 26 is fixedly connected to one end of the spring 25. The positioning head 26 is slidably connected inside the mounting sleeve 17 and inside the through hole 24. A handle 22 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the mounting plate 21.
[0034] A bracket 5 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the catalyst tank 1. A lifting rod 4 is threadedly connected to one side of the bracket 5. A cover 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting rod 4. The cover 3 is bolted to the upper part of the feed inlet 2. After the bolt is unscrewed from the cover 3 and the feed inlet 2, the lifting rod 4 is rotated to separate the cover 3 from the feed inlet 2, and the black chokeberry wine is injected into the catalyst tank 1.
[0035] When cleaning the plate heat exchanger 14 is required, the valves on the upper outlet pipe 13 and the lower inlet pipe 19 are closed. Water is then injected into the plate heat exchanger 14 through the upper inlet pipe 15 and the lower outlet pipe 20 in sequence to perform forward and reverse flushing. The cooling medium entering during heat exchange is filtered through the filter screen 23 installed inside the mounting sleeve 17, reducing the frequency of cleaning the plate heat exchanger 14. When cleaning the filter screen 23 is required, the handle 22 is pulled, causing the mounting plate 21 to slide inside the mounting sleeve 17. As the mounting plate 21 slides, the positioning head 26 is squeezed, and the spring 25 is squeezed, causing the positioning head 26 to move into the through hole 24, allowing the filter screen 23 to be easily removed for cleaning. This enables convenient disassembly and cleaning of the filter screen 23, ensuring effective filtration of impurities in the cooling medium and reducing the frequency of cleaning the plate heat exchanger 14.
[0036] Working principle: When the device is needed, the black chokeberry wine is injected into the catalytic tank 1. Under the action of the spiral guide plate 9, the wine circulates inside, increasing the contact with the heat exchange surface and improving the efficiency of heat exchange. Cooling liquid and heating liquid are introduced into the cooling pipe 6 and heating pipe 7 respectively. By precisely controlling the alternating temperature, the enzyme activity and yeast metabolism in the fruit wine are activated, promoting the release of aroma substances and the formation of flavor complexity. The cooling medium is sent into the heat exchange pipe 11 through the connecting pipe 16, plate heat exchanger 14, upper liquid outlet pipe 13 and water supply pipe 12, so as to quickly and stably switch the temperature of the black chokeberry wine. This achieves efficient heat exchange catalysis in the fruit wine brewing process, especially for the needs of aroma release and flavor enhancement in black chokeberry wine brewing.
[0037] By closing the valves on the upper liquid outlet pipe 13 and the lower liquid inlet pipe 19, water is injected into the plate heat exchanger 14 through the upper liquid inlet pipe 15 and the lower liquid outlet pipe 20 to flush it. The cooling medium entering during heat exchange is filtered by the filter screen 23 installed inside the mounting sleeve 17. When the filter screen 23 needs to be cleaned, the handle 22 is pulled, causing the mounting plate 21 to slide inside the mounting sleeve 17. As the mounting plate 21 slides, the positioning head 26 is squeezed, and the spring 25 is squeezed, causing the positioning head 26 to move into the through hole 24, allowing the filter screen 23 to be easily removed for cleaning. This enables convenient disassembly and cleaning of the filter screen 23, ensuring effective filtration of impurities in the cooling medium and reducing the cleaning frequency of the plate heat exchanger 14.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
