[0040] Example 1

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1-6The palm oil circulating water preheating structure of the fryer includes a base plate 1, an oil tank 11, and a hot water tank 13. An oil inlet pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the oil tank 11, and a water inlet pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the hot water tank 13. Three support legs 15 are fixedly connected to both the oil tank 11 and the hot water tank 13 and the base plate 1. A preheating element for preheating the palm oil is installed on the inner surface of the oil tank 11. A circulation element is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the hot water tank 13, and a filter element is slidably connected to the inner surface of the oil inlet pipe 12. The preheating element includes a coil 23, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the oil tank 11. The coil 23 is spirally arranged, with one end extending to the bottom of the oil tank 11 and fixedly installed, and the other end extending to the center of the oil tank 11 and passing downwards through the oil tank 11 and fixedly installed. The circulation system includes a water outlet pipe 2, which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the hot water tank 13. One end of the water outlet pipe 2 is fixedly connected to a water supply pipe 21, and a water pump 22 is mounted on the outer surface of the water supply pipe 21. One end of a coil 23 is fixedly connected to the water supply pipe 21, and the other end of the coil 23 is fixedly connected to a water outlet pipe 24. One end of the water outlet pipe 24 is fixedly connected to a return pipe 25, which is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the hot water tank 13. The hot water tank 13, water outlet pipe 2, water supply pipe 21, coil 23, water outlet pipe 24, and return pipe 25 are interconnected. A water supply pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the front side of the outer surface of the water outlet pipe 2, and a water pump 31 is mounted on the outer surface of the water supply pipe 3. The water outlet pipe 2 and the water supply pipe 3 are interconnected. An oil outlet pipe 32 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the oil tank 11. An oil pump 33 is installed on the outer surface of the oil outlet pipe 32, and the oil outlet pipe 32 and the oil tank 11 are connected in a continuous manner. A heater 4 is fixedly connected to the right side of the hot water tank 13. One side of the heater 4 extends into the interior of the hot water tank 13 and is fixedly connected to a heating rod 41.

[0042] Implementation process: An external water source is injected into the hot water tank 13 through the inlet pipe 14. The heater 4 controls the heating rod 41 to heat the water inside the hot water tank 13. When the water reaches a certain temperature, the water pump 22 starts working, driving the hot water to flow into the coil 23 through the outlet pipe 2 and the supply pipe 21. During the flow of the hot water in the coil 23, it can heat and melt the palm oil in the oil tank 11. Then, the cooled hot water flows back into the hot water tank 13 through the outlet pipe 24 and the return pipe 25 for reheating, so as to achieve the effect of recycling. When the fryer needs to use palm oil, the oil pump 33 works to transport the palm oil that has been melted in the oil inlet pipe 12 to the fryer through the oil outlet pipe 32, reducing the preheating time of the palm oil in the fryer. At the same time, when the fryer needs to be cleaned, the water pump 31 works to transport the hot water in the hot water tank 13 to the fryer through the supply pipe 3, directly cleaning it and reducing energy consumption.

[0043] Benefits of implementation: Reduces the preheating time of palm oil inside the fryer, thus reducing the energy consumption of the equipment.

The control ring 55 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 51.

[0046] Implementation process: The filter screen 52 removes suspended solids, particulate impurities, free fatty acids, peroxides, polymers, and odors from palm oil, thereby improving the quality of frying oil, enhancing the hygiene of fried foods, and extending their shelf life. When the filter screen 52 needs to be cleaned, rotate the control ring 55. The rotation of the control ring 55 causes the fixing ring 53 to move upward inside the mounting groove 5, disengaging the fixing ring 53 from the inside of the mounting groove 5. Then, the filter screen 52 can be slid out from the inside of the mounting groove 5 for cleaning. After cleaning, the operation is reversed to re-fix the filter screen 52 inside the mounting groove 5.

[0047] Benefits of implementation: Enables the cleaning and replacement of filter screen 52.
