Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling tank technology, specifically a cooling tank in which water can be evenly distributed. Background Technology

[0002] The jelly production line encompasses processes such as raw material preparation, heating and mixing, filling and molding, cooling and solidification, and sealing and packaging. A cooling tank is used in this process; it's a device for rapidly reducing the temperature of liquid or solid materials, and the tank body is typically made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel or carbon steel. Through the circulating flow of the heat transfer medium, the cooling tank can quickly lower the high-temperature material to the target temperature, ensuring the smooth operation of subsequent processes.

[0003] However, the existing jelly production line has three cooling tanks connected to an external cooling tower to cool the sterilized product. Usually, a cooling pump is used to distribute water to the three cooling tanks. However, the cooling tanks closer to the cooling pump have more water, while the cooling tanks farther away from the cooling pump have less water. This requires the staff to frequently adjust the water outlet valves to regulate the water volume, which is troublesome and can easily lead to uneven distribution of cooling water in the three cooling tanks. Therefore, we propose a cooling tank with uniform water distribution. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cooling tank in which water can be evenly distributed, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the cooling water distribution in the three cooling tanks of the current jelly production line on the market is uneven, requiring operators to frequently manually adjust the water outlet valve to regulate the water volume, which is quite troublesome.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cooling tank with uniform water distribution, comprising a base and a second cooling water pump. A first cooling tank, a second cooling tank, and a third cooling tank are installed above the base. A cooling tower and a control panel are installed at the end of the base. Water supply pipes are installed above the first, second, and third cooling tanks via brackets. Circulation pipes are connected to the bottom ends of the first, second, and third cooling tanks. The second cooling water pump is installed outside the circulation pipe. The first cooling water pump is installed outside the water supply pipe, and one end of both the water supply pipe and the circulation pipe is connected to the cooling tower. A water supply mechanism is connected below the water supply pipe.

[0006] Preferably, the water conveying mechanism includes a proportional regulating valve, a diversion pipe, a water outlet pipe, and a guide pipe, with equally spaced guide pipes connected below the water conveying pipe.

[0007] Preferably, a proportional regulating valve is installed on the inner side of the guide pipe, and two ends of the guide pipe are connected to diversion pipes, with equally spaced water outlet pipes below the diversion pipes.

[0008] Preferably, a liquid level sensor is installed on one inner wall of each of the three cooling tanks, and a flow divider is fixed on the other inner wall of each of the three cooling tanks.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the cooling tank 1, cooling tank 2 and cooling tank 3 is provided with a protective cover, one end of the protective cover is connected to a transmission mechanism, and the other end of the protective cover is connected to a lifting block 2.

[0010] Preferably, a support frame 2 is fixed on the outer surface of the cooling tank 1 away from the cooling tank 2, a guide rod is connected above the support frame 2, and one end of the transmission mechanism is connected to the cooling tank 3.

[0011] Preferably, the transmission mechanism includes a lifting block, a screw, a support frame, and a motor. The lifting block is fixed at one end of the protective cover near the cooling tank, and the support frame is fixed on the outer surface of the cooling tank.

[0012] Preferably, a screw is mounted on the upper part of the support frame one via a bearing, and the screw is threadedly connected to the lifting block one. A motor connected to the screw via a coupling is mounted on the lower part of the support frame one.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. Equipped with a water supply mechanism, when cooling water is transported from the cooling tower to the three cooling tanks, cooling water pump one is activated. Cooling water pump one delivers water to the water supply pipe, and finally discharges it into cooling tank one, cooling tank two, and cooling tank three through the outlet pipe. At the same time, the liquid level sensor detects the liquid level of cooling tank one, cooling tank two, and cooling tank three. The control panel then controls the opening of the proportional regulating valve through an electrical signal, which can add cooling water to the cooling tank with less water, so that the cooling water volume in the three cooling tanks is evenly distributed. In addition, the outlet pipe and the diverter plate buffer the falling cooling water and reduce noise. The water supply mechanism enables the jelly cooler to achieve automatic balance control, reduces the labor intensity of employees, and improves the practicality of the cooling tank.

[0015] 2. Equipped with a transmission mechanism and a protective cover, after the product is placed into the tank, the motor is started to drive the screw to rotate. The screw engages with the lifting block one, causing the lifting block one to move the protective cover downward outside the screw. At the same time, the protective cover causes the lifting block two to slide downward outside the guide rod, so that the protective cover covers the top of cooling tank one, cooling tank two, and cooling tank three, protecting the openings of cooling tank one, cooling tank two, and cooling tank three, preventing other items from accidentally falling in, and improving the working stability of the cooling tank.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a cooling tank with uniform water distribution, including a base 1 and a second cooling water pump 11. A first cooling tank 2, a second cooling tank 3 and a third cooling tank 4 are installed above the base 1. A cooling tower 5 and a control panel 6 are installed at the end of the base 1.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 and Figure 7A water supply pipe 12 is installed above the cooling tank 1 (2), cooling tank 2 (3), and cooling tank 3 (4) via a bracket. A circulation pipe 10 is connected to the bottom of the cooling tanks 1 (2), 2 (3), and 3 (4). A cooling water pump 2 (11) is installed outside the circulation pipe 10. A cooling water pump 1 (7) is installed outside the water supply pipe 12. One end of both the water supply pipe 12 and the circulation pipe 10 is connected to the cooling tower 5. A water supply mechanism 8 is connected below the water supply pipe 12. The water supply mechanism 8 includes a proportional regulating valve 801, a diversion pipe 802, an outlet pipe 803, and a guide pipe 804. The water supply pipe 12... Below the cooling tank, there are equally spaced guide pipes 804. A proportional regulating valve 801 is installed on the inner side of the guide pipe 804. Both ends of the guide pipe 804 are connected to diversion pipes 802. Below the diversion pipes 802, there are equally spaced water outlet pipes 803. A liquid level sensor 14 is installed on one side of the inner wall of the cooling tank 1, cooling tank 2, and cooling tank 3. A diversion plate 18 is fixed on the other side of the inner wall of the cooling tank 1, cooling tank 2, cooling tank 3, and cooling tank 3. The diversion plate 18 is designed with an inclined structure. The top of the diversion plate 18 is provided with equally spaced corrugated strips.

[0027] In practice, since the three cooling tanks on the jelly production line are connected to the external cooling tower 5 to cool the sterilized product, a single cooling pump is typically used to distribute water to the three cooling tanks. However, the cooling tanks closer to the pump have more water, while those farther away have less. This requires frequent manual adjustment of the outlet valves, which is cumbersome and can easily lead to uneven distribution of cooling water in the three tanks. When delivering cooling water from the cooling tower 5 to the three cooling tanks, cooling water pump 7 is started. Cooling water pump 7 delivers water to the water supply pipe 12. At this time, the proportional regulating valve 801 is open, and the cooling water enters the guide pipe 804 from the water supply pipe 12. Then, the guide pipe 804 further distributes the cooling water... The water is guided into the diversion pipe 802 and finally discharged into cooling tank 1 2, cooling tank 2 3, and cooling tank 3 4 through the outlet pipe 803. At the same time, the liquid level sensor 14 senses the liquid level of cooling tank 1 2, cooling tank 2 3, and cooling tank 3 4, and then transmits the detection data to the control panel 6. The control panel 6 then controls the opening of the proportional regulating valve 801 through an electrical signal, which can add cooling water to the cooling tank with less water, so that the cooling water volume in the three cooling tanks is evenly distributed. In addition, the outlet pipe 803 and the diversion plate 18 buffer the falling cooling water and reduce noise. The water delivery mechanism 8 enables the jelly cooler to achieve automatic balance control, reduces the labor intensity of employees, and improves the practicality of the cooling tank.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-3 and Figures 5-7The top of the cooling tank 1 2, cooling tank 2 3, and cooling tank 3 4 is provided with a protective cover 13. One end of the protective cover 13 is connected to a transmission mechanism 9, and the other end of the protective cover 13 is connected to a lifting block 2 16. A support frame 2 17 is fixed on the outer surface of the side of the cooling tank 1 2 away from the cooling tank 2 3. A guide rod 15 is connected above the support frame 2 17. One end of the transmission mechanism 9 is connected to the cooling tank 3 4. The transmission mechanism 9 includes a lifting block 1 901, a screw 902, a support frame 1 903, and a motor 904. The lifting block 1 901 is fixed on the end of the protective cover 13 near the cooling tank 3 4. The support frame 1 903 is fixed on the outer surface of the cooling tank 3 4. The screw 902 is installed on the top of the support frame 1 903 through a bearing. The screw 902 and the lifting block 1 901 are threaded together. The motor 904, which is connected to the screw 902 through a coupling, is installed below the support frame 1 903. The protective cover 13 is made of transparent material.

[0029] In practice, since most cooling tanks have exposed top openings for easy material feeding, other items may fall into the tank during operation, affecting its function. To address this, after placing the product into the tank, the motor 904 can be started to rotate the screw 902. The screw 902 engages with the lifting block 901, causing the lifting block 901 to move the protective cover 13 downwards outside the screw 902. Simultaneously, the protective cover 13 causes the lifting block 16 to slide downwards outside the guide rod 15, thus covering the openings of cooling tanks 2, 3, and 4, preventing accidental ingress of other items and improving the operational stability of the cooling tank.

[0030] Working principle: When using a cooling tank with uniform water distribution, the sterilized product is first transported into cooling tank 1 (2), cooling tank 2 (3), and cooling tank 3 (4). Then, the protective cover 13 is driven by the transmission mechanism 9 to shield the cooling tanks 1 (2), 2 (3), and 3 (4). Cooling water pump 1 (7) transports the cooled water from the cooling tower 5 into the water supply pipe 12. Then, the cooling water is evenly distributed into cooling tanks 1 (2), 2 (3), and 3 (4) by the water supply mechanism 8. Cooling water pump 2 (11) drives the circulation pipe 10 to draw cooling water from cooling tanks 1 (2), 2 (3), and 3 (4) and transport the cooling water into the cooling tower 5 for another cooling cycle. The water supply mechanism 8 and the transmission mechanism 9 improve the practicality and operational stability of the cooling tank. The contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0031] 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.
