Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of equipment for making candles, and in particular to a wax melting device. Background Technology

[0002] Wax melting devices are mainly used to heat and melt solid wax into liquid wax. They are widely used in wax mold casting, candle making and other fields. Traditional wax melting devices usually heat and melt the whole block of wax. Due to the poor thermal conductivity of wax, the melting efficiency is low and the melting time is long, which makes it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. Therefore, wax melting devices on the market usually have multiple heating components for simultaneous heating or auxiliary wax melting structures such as cutting and stirring solid wax, or directly use steam heating to carry out large-scale production. However, they generally have problems with high energy consumption and cost, and occupy a large space, which requires further optimization. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a wax melting device that occupies little space and has low cost and energy consumption.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a wax melting device, including a wax melting tank and a heating component. The wax melting tank is a hollow cylindrical shape and has a heating chamber for holding wax and a peripheral wall surrounding the heating chamber. An interlayer extending therefrom is provided in the peripheral wall, and the interlayer is used to hold heat transfer oil. The heating component is located on one side of the wax melting tank and includes a heating core extending into the interlayer.

[0005] The advantages of the above technical solution are as follows: by setting up a wax melting tank and a heating component, the wax melting tank is set as a hollow cylinder with a jacket for holding heat transfer oil in its peripheral wall. Then, in conjunction with the heating core of the heating component, the structure is realized that the heat transfer oil is heated by the heating core first, and then the solid wax is heated by the heat transfer oil. Compared with the existing technology, there is a larger contact area between the solid wax and the heating component, and the heat transfer through the heat transfer oil is stable. The energy consumption is relatively lower, the space occupied is smaller, the operating cost is reduced, and no additional auxiliary structure is required.

[0006] The present invention can be further configured such that: an oil inlet pipe and an oil outlet pipe are respectively provided on both sides of the wax melting tank, the oil inlet pipe and the oil outlet pipe are both connected to the interlayer, and a control valve with an operating handle is provided at the oil outlet pipe.

[0007] By further designing the system, inlet and outlet pipes are installed on both sides of the molten wax tank and connected to the jacket to form a channel for heat transfer oil, which facilitates the replacement of the heat transfer oil and results in a simple and stable structure.

[0008] The present invention can be further configured such that: the oil inlet pipe includes an extension and a connecting part, the extension is bent upward and extends to the upper end near the melting wax tank, the connecting part is a hollow tube with internal threads, and the connecting part is vertically arranged at the end of the extension.

[0009] By further designing the oil inlet pipe, it is configured with an extension and a connecting part. The extension bends upward and extends to the upper end near the melting wax tank to prevent hot oil in the interlayer from overflowing. The connecting part is set at the end of the extension. On the one hand, the vertically connected connecting part forms a shield for the upper end of the extension. On the other hand, the hollow and internally threaded design also facilitates the oiling of external equipment.

[0010] The present invention can be further configured such that: the interlayer is provided with a heat insulation layer on the side near the outer wall.

[0011] By further designing the insulation layer, a heat insulation layer is also installed on the side of the layer near the outer wall. On the one hand, this can prevent heat from being lost and dissipated to the outside, reducing energy consumption. On the other hand, it can also prevent the outer wall temperature of the wax melting tank from getting too high, thus avoiding additional risk of burns to the operators.

[0012] This utility model can be further configured to include a mounting base and an electrical box, wherein the heating component includes a housing portion that is attached to the lower side of the wax melting tank, and the wax melting tank, the heating component, and the electrical box are arranged sequentially on the mounting base.

[0013] With further arrangement, the wax melting tank, heating components, and electrical box are sequentially placed on the mounting base for easy movement and layout. The electrical box allows for the centralized placement of the heating component's switches and wiring, facilitating later maintenance and repair. Attached Figure Description
