Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camel milk processing technology, and more specifically, to a sterilization device for processing fermented camel milk. Background Technology

[0002] Camel milk comes from Bactrian camels. Its milk is milky white or pale yellow, and the fat globules are only 2-3 μm in diameter (smaller than the 4.5 μm of cow's milk), making it easier to digest and absorb. During the production and fermentation process, it needs to be sterilized using a sterilization device. One type of existing sterilization device uses pasteurization, which heats the camel milk to 50-99℃ using a hot water medium and maintains it for 5-40 minutes, which can kill harmful bacteria such as E. coli while retaining beneficial bacteria and nutrients in the camel milk.

[0003] However, the above-mentioned sterilization devices using pasteurization have the following problems when in use:

[0004] Firstly, since the sterilization cylinder is installed inside the water bath, it needs to be cleaned after long-term use. Directly introducing clean water into the sterilization cylinder is not very effective and can easily leave camel milk residue in the sterilization cylinder, thus contaminating the subsequent fermentation and processing of fresh camel milk.

[0005] Secondly, when camel milk is injected into the sterilization device, the camel milk itself may clump due to certain reasons. After the clumped camel milk enters the sterilization cylinder, it is not easy to disperse, which can easily lead to incomplete sterilization of the camel milk. In view of this, we propose a sterilization device for processing fermented camel milk. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing a sterilization device for processing fermented camel milk. It solves the problems that the existing solution of directly introducing clean water into the sterilization tank has poor cleaning effect, which easily leads to camel milk residue in the sterilization tank, and that camel milk may clump due to certain reasons, making it difficult to disperse the clumped camel milk after entering the sterilization tank.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a sterilization device for processing fermented camel milk, including a water bath. A sterilization cylinder is fixedly installed inside the water bath. A rotating mechanism for cleaning the sterilization cylinder and stirring the camel milk is installed inside the sterilization cylinder. A liquid injection mechanism for injecting camel milk into the sterilization cylinder and for vibrating and dispersing the camel milk is installed at one end of the top of the water bath. Wherein:

[0008] The rotating mechanism includes a rotating tube, the center of which is rotatably positioned at the center of the sterilization cylinder, and the top of which is rotatably positioned above the water bath cylinder. Multiple stirring tubes are fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating tube.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0010] 1) In this sterilization device for processing fermented camel milk, the rotating mechanism drives the rotating tube and the stirring tube to rotate. External clean water enters the stirring tube through the rotating tube and is then sprayed out from the output end of the stirring tube and dispersed, so that the clean water impacts the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder at a relatively fast speed, which can thoroughly clean the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder and enhance the cleaning effect.

[0011] 2) In the sterilization device for processing fermented camel milk, the vertical force generated by the operation of the liquid injection mechanism is used to vibrate and disperse the milk before it enters the sterilization cylinder, breaking up any lumps that may exist in the camel milk. This allows the water bath sterilization method of the water bath cylinder to more thoroughly sterilize the camel milk inside the sterilization cylinder, which is beneficial to enhancing the sterilization effect.

[0012] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows:

[0013] As a further improvement to this technical solution, one end of each of the multiple stirring tubes is fixedly connected to a nozzle via a one-way solenoid valve.

[0014] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the one-way solenoid valve only allows the clean water in the stirring tube to enter the sterilization cylinder, but does not allow the camel milk in the sterilization cylinder to flow into the stirring tube. By activating the one-way solenoid valve, the clean water flowing into the rotating tube and the stirring tube can flow through the one-way solenoid valve and be sprayed out from the nozzle into the sterilization cylinder to clean the inside of the sterilization cylinder, while the camel milk cannot flow into the stirring tube and the rotating tube.

[0015] As a further improvement to this technical solution, two fixing bars are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the output end of the multiple nozzles, and an impeller is rotatably arranged between adjacent fixing bars.

[0016] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the purified water sprayed from the nozzle impacts the impeller, causing the impeller to rotate rapidly. The rotation of the impeller further disperses the purified water in all directions, allowing the purified water to more fully hit the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder, thus enhancing the cleaning effect.

[0017] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the rotating mechanism also includes a mounting bracket. The bottom of the mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the inner ring of the top of the water bath. An inlet pipe is fixedly installed at the center of the mounting bracket. A connecting sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the inlet pipe. The bottom end of the connecting sleeve is rotatably connected to the top end of the rotating pipe.

[0018] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that, by connecting the pump body to the inlet pipe, the pump body pumps clean water from the external environment into the inlet pipe and connecting sleeve, and then the clean water enters the rotating pipe and stirring pipe, and finally sprays out from the nozzle, impacting the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder to clean the sterilization cylinder.

[0019] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the rotating mechanism also includes a first L-shaped fixing plate. The bottom end of the first L-shaped fixing plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the top of the water bath. A motor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the first L-shaped fixing plate. A rotating shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor. The rotating shaft is connected to the rotating tube through two meshing gears.

[0020] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the gear to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating tube to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring tube and nozzle to rotate. This stirs the camel milk during sterilization and accelerates the speed of clean water spraying when cleaning the inside of the sterilization cylinder, thus enhancing the cleaning effect.

[0021] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the liquid injection mechanism includes a first conduit, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the top end of the sterilization tube, the top end of which passes through the water bath tube and is fixedly connected to an intermediate box, and the top center of the intermediate box is fixedly connected to a second conduit.

[0022] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further scheme is that by allowing the camel milk to enter the intermediate box through the second conduit, and then flowing from the intermediate box through the first conduit into the sterilization cylinder, the camel milk is prepared for sterilization.

[0023] As a further improvement to this technical solution, two second L-shaped fixing plates are symmetrically fixed at both ends of the top of the intermediate box. A cylinder is fixedly installed on the inner side of the second L-shaped fixing plate. A straight rod is fixedly installed at the output end of the cylinder. A vibration net is fixedly installed through the bottom end of the straight rod through the intermediate box. The outer wall of the vibration net is in contact with the inner wall of the intermediate box.

[0024] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that by reciprocating the extension and retraction of the cylinder, the straight rod and the vibrating net are driven to vibrate back and forth in the vertical direction, which breaks up the clumps in the camel milk and avoids insufficient sterilization when the camel milk is sterilized inside the sterilization cylinder.

[0025] In addition to the objectives, features, and advantages described above, this utility model has other objectives, features, and advantages. The present utility model will now be described in further detail with reference to the figures. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0032] 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.

[0033] After prolonged use, the sterilization cylinder needs to be cleaned. Directly passing clean water into the sterilization cylinder is not very effective and can easily leave camel milk residue inside. Camel milk may clump together for various reasons. Clumped camel milk is not easy to disperse when it enters the sterilization cylinder, which can lead to incomplete sterilization.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a sterilization device for processing fermented camel milk, including a water bath 1, a sterilization cylinder 2 fixedly installed inside the water bath 1, a rotating mechanism 3 for cleaning the sterilization cylinder 2 and stirring the camel milk inside the sterilization cylinder 2, and a liquid injection mechanism 4 for injecting camel milk into the sterilization cylinder 2 and dispersing the camel milk by vibration at one end of the top of the water bath 1, wherein:

[0035] The rotating mechanism 3 includes a rotating tube 31, the center of which is rotatably located at the center of the sterilization cylinder 2, and the top of the rotating tube 31 is rotatably located above the water bath cylinder 1. Multiple stirring tubes 32 are fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating tube 31.

[0036] This utility model is as follows Figure 1-2 As shown, considering that the sterilization cylinder 2 is installed inside the water bath cylinder 1, and the inside of the sterilization cylinder 2 needs to be cleaned after long-term use, directly introducing clean water into the sterilization cylinder 2 has a poor cleaning effect and can easily leave camel milk residue in the sterilization cylinder 2, thus contaminating the subsequent fermentation and processing of fresh camel milk. Therefore, as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the rotating mechanism 3 rotates, driving the rotating tube 31 and the stirring tube 32 to rotate. External purified water enters the stirring tube 32 through the rotating tube 31, and then sprays out from the output end of the stirring tube 32 and is dispersed, so that the purified water hits the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder 2 at a relatively fast speed, thoroughly cleaning the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder 2, which helps to enhance the cleaning effect.

[0037] Furthermore, when camel milk is injected into sterilization cylinder 2, it may clump due to various reasons. Clumped camel milk is difficult to disperse after entering sterilization cylinder 2, potentially leading to incomplete sterilization. Therefore, if... Figure 2-3 As shown, the vertical force generated by the liquid injection mechanism 4 is used to vibrate and disperse the milk before it enters the sterilization cylinder 2, breaking up any clumps that may exist in the camel milk. This allows the water bath sterilization method of the water bath cylinder 1 to more thoroughly sterilize the camel milk inside the sterilization cylinder 2, which helps to enhance the sterilization effect.

[0038] Based on the above, the specific structure will be disclosed in detail:

[0039] To achieve the goal of spraying clean water from the stirring tube 32 during the cleaning of the sterilization cylinder 2, while preventing camel milk from entering the stirring tube 32 and the rotating tube 31 during the stirring of camel milk, the specific structure of the rotating mechanism 3 needs to be further disclosed. Therefore, as... Figure 2 As shown, multiple stirring tubes 32 are fixedly connected to nozzles 34 at one end via one-way solenoid valves 33. The one-way solenoid valves 33 only allow clean water in the stirring tubes 32 to enter the sterilization cylinder 2, but do not allow camel milk in the sterilization cylinder 2 to flow into the stirring tubes 32. By activating the one-way solenoid valves 33, the clean water flowing into the rotating tubes 31 and stirring tubes 32 can flow through the one-way solenoid valves 33 and be sprayed out from the nozzles 34 into the sterilization cylinder 2 to clean the inside of the sterilization cylinder 2, while the camel milk cannot flow into the stirring tubes 32 and rotating tubes 31.

[0040] To ensure that the clean water sprayed from nozzle 34 is dispersed and impacts various points on the inner wall of sterilization cylinder 2, thus thoroughly cleaning the interior of sterilization cylinder 2, the specific structure of the rotating mechanism 3 needs to be further disclosed. Therefore, as... Figure 4 As shown, two fixing strips 35 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the output end of multiple nozzles 34. Impellers 36 are rotatably installed between adjacent fixing strips 35. The clean water sprayed from the nozzles 34 impacts the impellers 36, causing the impellers 36 to rotate rapidly. The rotation of the impellers 36 further disperses the clean water in all directions, so that the clean water can more fully hit the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder 2, enhancing the cleaning effect.

[0041] To allow purified water from the external environment to enter the rotating pipe 31 and the stirring pipe 32, and finally be sprayed out from the nozzle 34, the specific structure of the rotating mechanism 3 needs to be further disclosed. Therefore, as... Figure 3As shown, the rotating mechanism 3 also includes a mounting frame. The bottom of the mounting frame is fixedly set on the inner ring of the top of the water bath 1. An inlet pipe 37 is fixedly set at the center of the mounting frame. A connecting sleeve 38 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the inlet pipe 37. The bottom end of the connecting sleeve 38 is rotatably connected to the top end of the rotating pipe 31. A pump body is connected to the outside of the inlet pipe 37. The pump body pumps clean water from the external environment into the inlet pipe 37 and the connecting sleeve 38. The clean water then enters the rotating pipe 31 and the stirring pipe 32, and finally sprays out from the nozzle 34, impacting the inner wall of the sterilization cylinder 2 to clean the sterilization cylinder 2.

[0042] To make the rotating tube 31 and the stirring tube 32 rotate, not only to stir the camel milk during sterilization, but also to accelerate the spraying speed of purified water during the cleaning of the sterilization cylinder 2, and to make the purified water more evenly impact all parts inside the sterilization cylinder 2, the specific structure of the rotating mechanism 3 needs to be further disclosed. Therefore, as... Figure 3 As shown, the rotating mechanism 3 also includes a first L-shaped fixing plate. The bottom end of the first L-shaped fixing plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the top of the water bath 1. A motor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the first L-shaped fixing plate. A rotating shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor. The rotating shaft is connected to the rotating tube 31 through two meshing gears. The motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the gears to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating tube 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring tube 32 and the spray head 34 to rotate. During sterilization, the camel milk is stirred, and when cleaning the inside of the sterilization tube 2, the speed of the clean water spray is accelerated, enhancing the cleaning effect.

[0043] To allow camel milk to enter the sterilization cylinder 2 for sterilization, the specific structure of the injection mechanism 4 must be disclosed. Therefore, as... Figure 3 As shown, the injection mechanism 4 includes a first conduit 41, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the top end of the sterilization cylinder 2. The top end of the first conduit 41 passes through the water bath cylinder 1 and is fixedly connected to an intermediate box 42. The top center of the intermediate box 42 is fixedly connected to a second conduit 43. Camel milk is allowed to enter the intermediate box 42 through the second conduit 43 and then flow from the intermediate box 42 through the first conduit 41 into the sterilization cylinder 2, in preparation for sterilizing the camel milk.

[0044] To make the injection mechanism 4 vibrate and disperse any clumps that may be present in the camel milk, the specific structure of the injection mechanism 4 needs to be further disclosed. Therefore, as... Figure 3 As shown, two second L-shaped fixing plates are symmetrically fixed at both ends of the top of the intermediate box 42. A cylinder 44 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the second L-shaped fixing plate. A straight rod 45 is fixedly installed at the output end of the cylinder 44. A vibrating net 46 is fixedly installed through the bottom end of the straight rod 45 through the intermediate box 42. The outer wall of the vibrating net 46 contacts the inner wall of the intermediate box 42. By reciprocating the extension and retraction of the cylinder 44, the straight rod 45 and the vibrating net 46 are driven to vibrate reciprocally in the vertical direction, which breaks up the clumps in the camel milk and prevents the camel milk from being insufficiently sterilized when it is sterilized inside the sterilization cylinder 2.

[0045] In summary, the working principle of this solution is as follows:

[0046] When the device is needed to sterilize camel milk, the camel milk awaiting sterilization is pumped into the second conduit 43 by an external liquid pump. The camel milk flows through the second conduit 43 into the intermediate box 42, and then from the intermediate box 42 through the first conduit 41 into the sterilization cylinder 2. During this process, the cylinder 44 is activated to reciprocate and extend, driving the straight rod 45 and the vibrating net 46 to vibrate reciprocally in the vertical direction, breaking up the clumps in the camel milk. At the same time, hot water that meets the sterilization requirements is introduced from the input end of the water bath cylinder 1 to heat the sterilization cylinder 2, thereby sterilizing the camel milk inside the sterilization cylinder 2.

[0047] When the sterilization cylinder 2 needs to be cleaned after prolonged use, the camel milk is first discharged from the sterilization cylinder 2 through the output end. Then, since the pump body is connected to the inlet pipe 37, the pump body pumps clean water from the external environment into the inlet pipe 37 and the connecting sleeve 38. The clean water then enters the rotating pipe 31 and the stirring pipe 32, and finally sprays out from the nozzle 34. The clean water sprayed from the nozzle 34 impacts the impeller 36, causing the impeller 36 to rotate rapidly. The rotation of the impeller 36 further disperses the clean water in all directions. Then, the motor is started to rotate, and the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the gear to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating pipe 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring pipe 32 and the nozzle 34 to rotate. During sterilization, the camel milk is stirred, and when cleaning the inside of the sterilization cylinder 2, the speed of the clean water spray is accelerated, thus realizing the cleaning operation inside the sterilization cylinder 2.

[0048] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
