Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sterilization equipment technology, specifically to a sterilization equipment with an easily replaceable multi-hole spray pipe. Background Technology

[0002] An autoclave is a piece of equipment used in food processing. Its main task is to eliminate harmful microorganisms in food through a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, thereby extending the shelf life of food and ensuring food safety.

[0003] Existing sterilizers are generally divided into three categories: hot water circulating sterilizers, steam sterilizers, and water spray sterilizers. Among them, hot water circulating sterilizers provide more uniform heating and better sterilization results because the food inside is completely immersed in hot water.

[0004] Existing sterilizers typically use multi-hole spray pipes to spray hot water. However, during use, impurities in the high-temperature water (such as calcium and magnesium ion precipitates and particulate matter) or debris from sterilized items can clog the spray holes, resulting in a significant reduction in sterilization efficiency. Furthermore, unclogging the multi-hole spray pipes takes a considerable amount of time. Therefore, manufacturers usually adopt a backup approach, meaning that they use one or a set of multi-hole spray pipes at a time and then repair one or a set of multi-hole spray pipes.

[0005] However, existing multi-hole injection pipes are usually threaded connections, which can make installation difficult when the vessel is small and has a large longitudinal length.

[0006] Therefore, a new type of sterilization vessel is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0007] This invention proposes a sterilizer with an easily replaceable multi-hole spray pipe, which solves the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive installation when replacing the multi-hole spray pipe in existing sterilizers.

[0008] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A sterilizer with an easily replaceable multi-hole spray pipe, comprising:

[0009] The vessel body;

[0010] A pipe connector is located inside the vessel body and its first end is connected to the water supply pipe. A snap-fit ​​groove is provided on the second end of the pipe connector.

[0011] A multi-hole injection pipe is located inside the vessel body. The first end of the multi-hole injection pipe is connected to the second end of the pipe connector. A snap-fit ​​protrusion is provided on the first end of the multi-hole injection pipe. The snap-fit ​​protrusion passes into the snap-fit ​​groove and can be rotated and snapped. A guide protrusion is also provided on the outer edge of the middle part of the multi-hole injection pipe.

[0012] A bracket is located inside the vessel and connected to the inner wall of the vessel. The bracket has a fixing hole and a guide groove is provided on the inner wall of the receiving hole.

[0013] When the multi-hole injection tube is inserted into the fixing hole, both the guide protrusion and the snap-fit ​​protrusion can pass through the guide groove.

[0014] As a further technical solution, the snap-fit ​​protrusions are two in number and arranged symmetrically in a circle, and the snap-fit ​​grooves are two in number and arranged symmetrically in a circle.

[0015] As a further technical solution, the height of the snap-fit ​​protrusion and / or the guide protrusion is less than the depth of the guide groove.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the height of the snap-fit ​​protrusion is less than the height of the guide protrusion.

[0017] As a further technical solution, the brackets are two in number and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide protrusion.

[0018] As a further technical solution, a sealing ring is also included, which is located inside the pipe joint and abuts against the first end face of the porous injection pipe.

[0019] As a further technical solution, the second end face of the porous injection pipe is provided with markings for installation or removal.

[0020] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A sterilizer with an easily replaceable multi-hole spray pipe includes a vessel body, a pipe connector, a multi-hole spray pipe, and a support. The pipe connector, multi-hole spray pipe, and support are all located within the vessel body. The first end of the pipe connector is connected to the water supply pipe of the vessel body, and the second end of the pipe connector is connected to the first end of the multi-hole spray pipe. A snap-fit ​​groove is provided on the second end of the pipe connector. The snap-fit ​​groove has a narrow portion and a wide portion. The narrow portion is used for the passage of a snap-fit ​​protrusion, and the wide portion is used for locking the snap-fit ​​protrusion. A snap-fit ​​protrusion is provided on the first end of the multi-hole spray pipe. The snap-fit ​​protrusion can pass into the snap-fit ​​groove. The snap-fit ​​protrusion first passes through the narrow portion of the snap-fit ​​groove and then into the wide portion. As the multi-hole spray pipe rotates along its own axis, the snap-fit ​​protrusion can rotate within the snap-fit ​​groove, thus inevitably opening the narrow portion of the snap-fit ​​groove, preventing the snap-fit ​​protrusion from interfering with the snap-fit ​​groove. The separation is achieved by: a fixing hole on the support, through which the multi-hole injection tube can be inserted; a guide groove on the inner wall of the fixing hole; and a guide protrusion on the outer edge of the middle part of the multi-hole injection tube. When the multi-hole injection tube is inserted into the fixing hole, the guide protrusion can be inserted into the guide groove. As long as the position is set properly, it can be ensured that while the multi-hole injection tube is passing through the fixing hole, the first end of the multi-hole injection tube abuts against the second end of the pipe connector. After the abutment is completed, simply rotate along the axis of the multi-hole injection tube to allow the locking protrusion to be inserted into the locking groove. When disassembling or replacing the multi-hole injection tube, simply rotate it. When it can no longer be rotated, pull the multi-hole injection tube out of the vessel body.

[0021] The sterilizer with easily replaceable porous spray pipe provided by this utility model overcomes the problem of uneven hot water circulation and mixing in the autoclave due to clogging of the spray nozzles caused by porous spray pipes, thereby improving the sterilization efficiency and effect of the food in the autoclave.

[0032] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this embodiment proposes a sterilizer with an easily replaceable porous spray pipe 3, comprising:

[0034] 1. Pot body;

[0035] Pipe connector 2 is located inside the vessel body 1 and its first end is connected to the water supply pipe. A snap-fit ​​groove 6 is opened on the second end of the pipe connector 2.

[0036] The multi-hole injection pipe 3 is located inside the vessel body 1. The first end of the multi-hole injection pipe 3 is connected to the second end of the pipe connector 2. The first end of the multi-hole injection pipe 3 is provided with a snap-fit ​​protrusion 7. The snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 passes into the snap-fit ​​groove 6 and can be rotated and snapped. The middle outer edge of the multi-hole injection pipe 3 is also provided with a guide protrusion 8.

[0037] The bracket 4 is located inside the vessel body 1 and connected to the inner wall of the vessel body 1. The bracket 4 has a fixing hole and a guide groove 9 is provided on the inner wall of the receiving hole.

[0038] When the multi-hole injection pipe 3 is inserted into the fixed hole, both the guide protrusion 8 and the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 can pass through the guide groove 9.

[0039] In this embodiment, a sterilizer with an easily replaceable porous spray pipe 3 includes a vessel body 1, a pipe connector 2, a porous spray pipe 3, and a support 4. The pipe connector 2, the porous spray pipe 3, and the support 4 are all housed within the vessel body 1. The first end of the pipe connector 2 is connected to the water supply pipe of the vessel body 1, and the second end of the pipe connector 2 is connected to the first end of the porous spray pipe 3. A snap-fit ​​groove 6 is provided on the second end of the pipe connector 2. The snap-fit ​​groove 6 has a narrow portion and a wide portion. The narrow portion is used for the passage of the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7, and the wide portion is used for locking the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7. The first end of the porous spray pipe 3 is provided with a snap-fit ​​protrusion 7, which can pass into the snap-fit ​​groove 6. The snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 first passes through the narrow portion of the snap-fit ​​groove 6 and then into the wide portion. As the porous spray pipe 3 rotates along its own axis, the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 can rotate within the snap-fit ​​groove 6, inevitably opening the narrow portion of the snap-fit ​​groove 6, thus preventing the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 from being locked out. Separation from the snap-fit ​​groove 6; the bracket 4 has a fixing hole, and the multi-hole injection pipe 3 can be inserted into the fixing hole. The inner wall of the fixing hole is provided with a guide groove 9, and the outer edge of the middle part of the multi-hole injection pipe 3 is provided with a guide protrusion 8. When the multi-hole injection pipe 3 is inserted into the fixing hole, the guide protrusion 8 can be inserted into the guide groove 9. As long as the position is set properly, it can be ensured that when the multi-hole injection pipe 3 passes through the fixing hole, the first end of the multi-hole injection pipe 3 abuts against the second end of the pipe connector 2. After the abutment is completed, it is only necessary to rotate along the axis of the multi-hole injection pipe 3 to realize that the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove. When the multi-hole injection pipe 3 is disassembled and replaced, it is only necessary to rotate it. When it can no longer be rotated, the multi-hole injection pipe 3 can be pulled out of the vessel body 1.

[0040] The sterilizer with easily replaceable porous spray pipe 3 provided by this utility model overcomes the problem of uneven hot water circulation and mixing in the autoclave due to clogging of the spray nozzles caused by the porous spray pipe 3, thereby improving the sterilization efficiency and effect of the food in the autoclave.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this embodiment proposes two snap-fit ​​protrusions 7 arranged symmetrically in a circle, and two snap-fit ​​grooves 6 arranged symmetrically in a circle.

[0042] In this embodiment, to improve the stability of the connection between the pipe connector 2 and the multi-hole injection pipe 3, both the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 and the snap-fit ​​groove 6 are provided in pairs, and the two snap-fit ​​protrusions 7 and the two snap-fit ​​grooves 6 are arranged symmetrically in a circle. The two snap-fit ​​protrusions 7 can simultaneously enter the corresponding snap-fit ​​grooves 6 and complete the corresponding locking simultaneously.

[0043] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the height of the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 and / or the guide protrusion 8 is less than the depth of the guide groove 9.

[0044] In this embodiment, to ensure the porous injection pipe 3 can smoothly pass through and exit the bracket 4, the heights of the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 and the guide protrusion 8 are set to be less than the depth of the guide groove 9. Here, the height of the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 refers to the vertical distance from its highest point to the axis of the porous injection pipe 3, and similarly for the guide protrusion 8. The depth of the guide groove 9 refers to the vertical distance from its lowest point to the axis of the fixing hole. It is important to note that the highest points of both the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 and the guide protrusion 8 are in a plane, and the lowest point of the guide groove 9 is also in a plane. That is, there will not be only one highest point and one lowest point.

[0045] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the height of the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 is less than the height of the guide protrusion 8.

[0046] In this embodiment, in order to further improve the ease of installation and disassembly of the porous injection pipe 3, the height of the snap-fit ​​protrusion 7 is set to be smaller than the height of the guide protrusion 8.

[0047] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-2 As shown in the figure, this embodiment proposes that there are two brackets 4, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide protrusion 8.

[0048] In this embodiment, in order to improve the stability of the porous injection pipe 3 during the installation process, the number of brackets 4 is set to two, and the two brackets 4 are arranged symmetrically, with the symmetrical object being the guide protrusion 8.

[0049] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment also includes a sealing ring 5, which is located inside the pipe joint 2 and abuts against the first end face of the porous injection pipe 3.

[0050] In this embodiment, in order to improve the sealing performance at the connection between the porous injection pipe 3 and the pipe joint 2, a sealing ring 5 is provided inside the pipe joint 2, and the first end face of the porous injection pipe 3 abuts against the end face of the sealing ring 5, which can increase the sealing performance.

[0051] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment proposes that the second end face of the porous injection pipe 3 is provided with a mark 10 for installation or removal.

[0052] In this embodiment, a mark 10 is provided on the second end face of the porous injection pipe 3. The mark 10 is a shallow protrusion or groove, and its length is the same as that of the guide protrusion 8.

[0053] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
