[0036] 3. Floating syrup tank; 31. Syrup discharge pipe. Detailed Implementation

[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can typically be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0038] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] Technical means not detailed in this application and not used to solve the technical problems of this application are all set according to common general knowledge in the field, and multiple common general knowledge setting methods can be implemented.

[0040] See Figures 1-4 The floating syrup filtration storage tank provided in this application includes: a syrup foaming component, a floating syrup tank 3, and a filter frame 4; the syrup outlet of the syrup foaming component is connected to the filter frame 4 via a pipeline; the floating syrup enters the floating syrup tank 3 after being filtered by the filter frame 4; the filter frame 4 is located on the top of the floating syrup tank 3 and is housed within the floating syrup tank 3.

[0041] The filter frame 4 includes a first filter screen 421, a second filter screen 422, and a base plate. The first filter screen 421 and the second filter screen 422 are stacked to form the sidewall of the filter frame 4. The base plate is located on the bottom surface of the filter frame 4. This arrangement reduces the longitudinal flow velocity of the syrup, allowing it to flow out of the filter frame 4 from the sidewall, thus achieving effective filtration. Simultaneously, by stacking the first filter screen 421 and the second filter screen 422, various solid impurities contained in the syrup can be better intercepted, achieving effective filtration and thus effectively reducing the number of yellow and black spots in the resulting white sugar, effectively improving product quality.

[0042] By adopting the filter frame 4 structure, on the one hand, the floating syrup can be buffered, and on the other hand, the floating syrup can be fully filtered. At the same time, the efficiency of the syrup passing through the side wall of the filter screen is guaranteed, and the syrup is prevented from accumulating in the filter frame 4 and overflowing out of the filter frame 4.

[0043] In one specific embodiment, the base plate includes: a first filter screen plate 421 and a filter hole plate 423 stacked together; the filter hole plate 423 has multiple through holes, and the floating syrup falls into the first filter screen plate 421 after passing through the filter hole plate 423. The filter hole plate 423 is disposed on the top surface of the first filter screen plate 421. By setting the filter hole plate 423, the floating syrup can be blocked from falling vertically while the leaking floating syrup is filtered by the first filter screen plate 421, ensuring both throughput efficiency and normal filtration.

[0044] In one specific embodiment, the base plate is a support base plate 43; the support base plate 43 has no through holes and only plays a supporting role, which can effectively promote the floating clear syrup to pass through the first filter screen plate 421 and the second filter screen plate 422 stacked on the side wall of the filter frame 4; thus achieving better filtration.

[0045] In one specific embodiment, the top surface of the filter frame 4 is provided with an opening; it includes: a main inlet pipe 24 for clear syrup, a first outlet branch pipe 241 for clear syrup, and a second outlet branch pipe 242 for clear syrup; one end of the main inlet pipe 24 is connected to the outlet pipe of the syrup foaming component; the other end of the bottom surface is provided with the first outlet branch pipe 241 and the second outlet branch pipe 242 at intervals; the extended ends of the first outlet branch pipe 241 and the second outlet branch pipe 242 extend into the opening on the top surface of the filter frame 4. This arrangement can increase the flow rate of clear syrup and allow clear syrup to be introduced into multiple places within the filter frame 4, thereby improving the filtration efficiency.

[0046] In one specific embodiment, the diameters of the first clear syrup outlet branch pipe 241 and the second clear syrup outlet branch pipe 242 are equal and smaller than the diameter of the clear syrup inlet main pipe 24. This arrangement facilitates the smooth flow of clear syrup into the filter frame 4 and promotes the uniform distribution of clear syrup within the filter frame 4.

[0047] In one specific embodiment, the filter frame 4 includes: a frame body, a mounting plate 41, and mounting holes 411; the mounting plate 41 is disposed on the outer periphery of the top surface of the frame body and extends outward; a plurality of mounting holes 411 are provided on the mounting plate 41 at intervals; the frame body is installed in the mounting opening at the top of the slurry tank 3 by means of a bolt assembly. This configuration facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the filter frame 4.

[0048] In one specific embodiment, it includes: a syrup discharge pipe 31; the syrup discharge pipe 31 is disposed on the lower side wall of the floating syrup tank 3 and is connected to the pipeline of the subsequent process equipment to realize the subsequent processing of the filtered floating syrup.

[0049] In one specific embodiment, the system includes: a floating syrup valve 233, a floating syrup delivery pump 231, and a floating syrup delivery pipe 23; a syrup foaming assembly and a floating syrup feed main pipe 24 are connected through the floating syrup delivery pipe 23; the floating syrup valve 233 and the floating syrup delivery pump 231 are spaced apart on the floating syrup delivery pipe 23. This arrangement enables effective delivery of the floating syrup.

[0050] In one specific embodiment, the syrup foaming assembly includes: a foaming tank 2, a foam maker 21, a rotating shaft 211, an impeller 212, and a mounting cylinder 221; the mounting cylinder 221 is disposed on the top surface of the foaming tank 2; the foam maker 21 is mounted on the mounting cylinder 221; one end of the rotating shaft 211 is drivenly connected to the foam maker 21, and the other end is connected to the impeller 212; the impeller 212 is accommodated in the foaming tank 2. By providing the mounting cylinder 221, the internal space of the foaming tank 2 can be increased, which is beneficial for the storage of the formed foam in the foaming tank 2.

[0051] In one specific embodiment, the outlet of the syrup in the foaming tank 2 is located on the upper side wall of the foaming tank 2; the inlet of the foaming tank 2 is located on the lower part of the opposite side wall. This arrangement increases the foaming time of the syrup in the foaming tank 2, achieving sufficient foaming.

[0052] In one specific embodiment, the system includes: a syrup feed pipe 1, a syrup valve 11, and a syrup pump 12; one end of the syrup feed pipe 1 is connected to a syrup storage tank (not shown in the figure), and the other end is connected to the inlet of a foaming tank 2; the syrup feed pipe 1 is provided with the syrup valve 11 and the syrup pump 12 at intervals. This configuration enables effective syrup delivery.

[0053] After the device was used in our factory's actual production, the resulting clear syrup was made into sugar paste, which was then further processed into white granulated sugar. Regular testing revealed that the number of black spots on the white granulated sugar was <4 / ㎡ and the number of yellow spots was <5 / ㎡. The number of yellow and black spots was significantly reduced, the product quality was greatly improved, and the product quality was stable.

[0054] Although the present invention 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 invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
