Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible oil processing technology, and in particular to a rapid dehydration device for edible oil processing. Background Technology

[0002] Edible oil, also known as "cooking oil," refers to animal or vegetable fats used in food preparation. It is liquid at room temperature. Due to factors such as raw material sources, processing techniques, and quality, most common edible oils are vegetable oils, including rapeseed oil, peanut oil, hemp seed oil, corn oil, olive oil, camellia oil, palm oil, sunflower seed oil, soybean oil, sesame oil, flaxseed oil (linseed oil), grapeseed oil, walnut oil, peony seed oil, and so on. In the production process, edible oils need to be dehydrated.

[0003] Existing edible oil dehydration equipment generally uses vacuum dehydration equipment, which first heats the edible oil and then sprays it under low pressure to evaporate the water in the edible oil, thereby removing the water from the edible oil.

[0004] However, in the use of existing edible oil dehydration equipment, the pipeline connecting the edible oil heating device and the dehydration tank is relatively long, which leads to some energy loss during the transmission of heated edible oil, thereby increasing the dehydration time and cost. At the same time, there is also the possibility of incomplete dehydration of edible oil, which affects the production quality of edible oil. Therefore, a rapid dehydration equipment for edible oil processing is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, such as welding, riveting, or bonding; it can also be a detachable connection, such as threaded connection, keyed connection, or pin connection; or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; or it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes a rapid dehydration device for edible oil processing, including a base plate 1, a dehydration tank 4 on the top of the base plate 1, four support columns 2 at the bottom of the base plate 1, a support plate 3 between the inner sides of the four support columns 2, a heating spray mechanism 5 on the top of the base plate 1, the heating spray mechanism 5 being connected to the dehydration tank 4 for heating and spraying the edible oil, and a vacuum mechanism 6 on the top of the support plate 3, the vacuum mechanism 6 being connected to the dehydration tank 4 for vacuuming the dehydration tank 4.

[0025] In this invention, the dehydration tank 4 can be used to dehydrate edible oil, and the four support columns 2 can support the dehydration tank 4. During the dehydration process, the heating and spraying mechanism 5 can heat and spray the edible oil to evaporate the water in the edible oil. At the same time, the vacuuming mechanism 6 can perform a vacuuming operation inside the dehydration tank 4, thereby accelerating the evaporation of water in the edible oil and quickly expelling water vapor, thus improving the dehydration efficiency of the edible oil.

[0026] like Figure 1-2As shown, in an optional embodiment, the heating spray mechanism 5 includes a mounting column 51, an oil passage pipe 52, a heater 53, an oil inlet pipe 54, a top pipe 55, a spray pipe 56, and multiple spray nozzles 57. The mounting column 51 is located on the top of the base plate 1, the oil passage pipe 52 is mounted on the top of the mounting column 51, the heater 53 is mounted on the outside of the oil passage pipe 52, the oil inlet pipe 54 is connected to the outside of the oil passage pipe 52 and is located below the heater 53, the top pipe 55 is connected to the outside of the oil passage pipe 52 and is located above the heater 53, the spray pipe 56 is connected to the other end of the top pipe 55 and extends into the interior of the dehydration tank 4, and the multiple spray nozzles 57 are all connected to the outside of the spray pipe 56 and are all located inside the dehydration tank 4.

[0027] During the dehydration process of edible oil, the oil-passing pipe 52 can be installed through the mounting column 51. The edible oil can be sent into the oil-passing pipe 52 through the oil inlet pipe 54. When the edible oil passes through the oil-passing pipe 52, it will be heated by the heater 53, thereby increasing the temperature of the edible oil. After the edible oil is heated, it can enter the spray pipe 56 through the top pipe 55 and be sprayed out through multiple spray nozzles 57, so that the edible oil is quickly atomized. After the edible oil is atomized, the water in the atomized edible oil evaporates quickly under the action of the vacuum mechanism 6.

[0028] In this embodiment, the heater 53 is sleeved on the outside of the oil-passing pipe 52. The heater 53 includes a shell and an annular heating tube. The shell is installed on the outside of the oil-passing pipe 52, and the annular heating tube is installed on the inside of the shell, so that the annular heating tube is laid on the outside of the oil-passing pipe 52 along with the shell, and the edible oil inside the oil-passing pipe 52 is heated by the annular heating tube.

[0029] In this embodiment, the oil pipe 52 and the heater 53 are located outside the dehydration tank 4, and the spray pipe 56 extends laterally into the interior of the dehydration tank 4 through the top pipe 55, which greatly reduces the path of the heated edible oil into the dehydration tank 4 for spraying. This can minimize the energy loss during the transmission of heated edible oil, reduce the time and cost of edible oil dehydration, ensure more thorough dehydration of edible oil, and ensure the quality of edible oil production.

[0030] like Figure 1-4As shown, in an optional embodiment, the vacuuming mechanism 6 includes a vacuum machine body 61, a connecting pipe 62, an extraction pipe 63, a pressure gauge 64, and a condensation assembly 65. The vacuum machine body 61 is mounted on the top of the support plate 3. The connecting pipe 62 is connected to the air inlet of the vacuum machine body 61. The extraction pipe 63 is connected to the top of the dehydration tank 4. The condensation assembly 65 is disposed on the top of the base plate 1. Both the connecting pipe 62 and the extraction pipe 63 are connected to the condensation assembly 65, mounted on the top of the dehydration tank 4, and extend into its interior for detecting the internal pressure of the dehydration tank 4.

[0031] Vacuuming can be performed inside the dehydration tank 4 via the vacuum machine body 61, the connecting pipe 62, the suction pipe 63, and the condensing component 65. The suction pipe 63 is connected to the top of the dehydration tank 4, which can extract as much water vapor as possible from the edible oil, while also minimizing the extraction of atomized edible oil during vacuuming. The water vapor extracted through the suction pipe 63 enters the condensing component 65, where it is condensed into water. The remaining air can enter the vacuum machine body 61 through the connecting pipe 62 and be expelled. The condensing component 65 ensures that water vapor does not enter the vacuum machine body 61 as much as possible.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the condensation assembly 65 includes a condenser tank 651, a cover plate 652, a spiral condenser tube 653, and a water outlet pipe 654. The condenser tank 651 is located on the top of the base plate 1. The cover plate 652 is movably connected to the top of the condenser tank 651 and is bolted to the condenser tank 651. The end of the suction pipe 63 away from the dehydration tank 4 is connected to the top of the cover plate 652. The end of the connecting pipe 62 away from the vacuum machine body 61 is connected to the outside of the condenser tank 651. The spiral condenser tube 653 is located inside the condenser tank 651 and both ends of the spiral condenser tube 653 extend to the outside of the condenser tank 651. The water outlet pipe 654 is connected to the bottom of the outside of the condenser tank 651.

[0033] Both ends of the spiral condenser 653 are connected to an external water source. Under the action of the pump, the cold water in the external water source will circulate inside the spiral condenser 653. When the suction pipe 63 draws water vapor into the condenser tank 651, the water vapor will exchange heat with the water inside the spiral condenser 653 as it passes through the spiral condenser 653, thereby causing the water vapor to condense into water. After the edible oil is dehydrated, the condensed water can be discharged through the water outlet pipe 654.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the dehydration tank 4 is provided with an insulation layer 7 on the outside, an observation window 8 on the outside, and an oil outlet pipe connected to the outside of the dehydration tank 4.

[0035] It should be noted that the insulation layer 7 is made of aluminum foil, which is used to keep the dehydration tank 4 warm. The observation window 8 allows observation of the dehydration of the edible oil inside the dehydration tank 4. After the edible oil is dehydrated, it can be discharged through the oil outlet pipe.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the top of the base plate 1 is provided with two vertical rods, and the top of the two vertical rods is provided with a control box 9.

[0037] The control box 9 can be installed using two vertical rods. Inside the control box 9 is a controller. The heater 53 and the vacuum machine body 61 are electrically connected to the controller, which can control the heater 53 and the vacuum machine body 61.

[0038] When the vacuum machine body 61 is in operation, it is controlled by a diaphragm controller, so that the vacuum machine body 61 can continuously and stably adjust the air pressure inside the dehydration tank 4, so that the air pressure inside the dehydration tank 4 is kept in a stable state, and the air pressure inside the dehydration tank 4 can be displayed by the pressure gauge 64.

[0039] In operation, this rapid dehydration equipment for edible oil processing starts with the heater 53 and the vacuum unit 61. Edible oil is then fed into the oil-passing pipe 52 via the oil inlet pipe 54. As the oil passes through the oil-passing pipe 52, it is heated by the heater 53, increasing its temperature. After heating, the oil enters the spray pipe 56 through the top pipe 55 and is sprayed out through multiple spray nozzles 57, rapidly atomizing the oil. With the vacuum unit 61 activated, the dehydration tank 4 is under low pressure. Under this low-pressure environment, the water in the atomized oil evaporates rapidly as water vapor. While the vacuum unit 61 is running, the suction pipe 63 extracts the evaporated water vapor and sends it into the condenser tank 651. The water vapor is condensed into water via the spiral condenser pipe 653. After dehydration, the condensed water is discharged through the water outlet pipe 654.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
