Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of oil melting technology, and in particular to a stirring-type heated oil melting tank. Background Technology

[0002] An oil melting tank is a device used to melt grease. Its main function is to convert solid grease into a liquid state to facilitate subsequent processing. For example, in food processing, chemical industries, and other fields, grease needs to be melted into a suitable liquid state before transportation, blending, or further reactions.

[0003] In related technologies, a heating device is installed inside a mixing tank. Solid oil is placed inside the mixing tank and the heating device melts the oil into a liquid state. However, during the process of heating and melting the oil, harmful gases that are unpleasant to consume are usually produced. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to address the aforementioned problems in the prior art by proposing a stirring-type heated oil melting tank.

[0005] This application can be achieved through the following technical solution: a stirring-type heating melting tank, including a stirring tank for containing materials, a stirring component extending into the stirring tank and capable of stirring the materials, a heat-conducting pipe extending into the stirring tank, and a suction pipe, wherein a vacuum pump is provided inside the suction pipe, a heat-conducting medium is passed through the heat-conducting pipe, the heat-conducting medium can heat the materials through the heat-conducting pipe to melt the materials, and the vacuum pump is used to remove the waste gas generated during the melting process of the materials.

[0006] In the above technical solution, during use, the worker first places the material in the mixing tank. By introducing a heat-conducting medium into the heat-conducting pipe, the heat-conducting medium can heat the material in the mixing tank through the heat-conducting pipe, thereby melting the material in the mixing tank. During the melting process, the stirring component can stir the material, thereby accelerating the melting speed. The melting process of oil usually produces unpleasant and harmful gases, which are waste gases. During the oil melting process, the worker can turn on the exhaust fan to remove the harmful gases produced during the oil melting process through the exhaust pipe, thereby ensuring the air quality of the worker's working environment.

[0007] Furthermore, the portion of the heat-conducting pipe inside the mixing tank is arranged in a spiral pattern.

[0008] In the above technical solution, the heat-conducting pipe is arranged in a spiral inside the mixing tank, and the contact area between the heat-conducting pipe and the material is large, thereby accelerating the melting speed of the material.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a steam generator, wherein the heat transfer medium is steam, and the steam generator is used to deliver the heat transfer medium into the heat transfer pipe.

[0010] In the above technical solution, steam can heat the material through a heat pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, the heat transfer medium is heat transfer oil, and both ends of the heat transfer pipe are connected to the interior of an oil storage tank. The oil storage tank is used to contain the heat transfer oil, and a heater for heating the heat transfer oil is provided inside the oil storage tank. An oil pump is installed on the oil storage tank, and the oil pump is used to pump the heated heat transfer oil into the heat transfer pipe.

[0012] In the above technical solution, the heater can heat the heat transfer oil, and the oil pump can pump the heated heat transfer oil into the heat transfer pipe. The heat transfer oil can then heat the material through the heat transfer pipe to melt the material. The heat transfer oil can return to the oil storage tank from the end of the heat transfer pipe away from the oil pump to be heated and recycled again. Compared with the use of steam, heat transfer oil has higher safety in the heating process in terms of operating pressure, temperature control and stability, equipment maintenance and corrosion resistance.

[0013] Furthermore, a fixing frame is installed on the inner side wall of the mixing tank, and several connection holes are opened through the fixing frame. A pipe clamp is provided on the heat-conducting pipe, and the pipe clamp is fixed to the fixing frame by a nut, so as to fix the position of the heat-conducting pipe relative to the mixing tank.

[0014] In the above technical solution, the tube clamp is fitted onto the heat-conducting tube, and both ends of the tube clamp are inserted into a connection hole. Then, the nut is threaded onto the tube clamp, and the nut abuts against the surface of the fixing bracket away from the heat-conducting tube, so that the heat-conducting tube can be fixed relative to the position of the mixing tank.

[0015] Furthermore, the mixing tank has an opening, and a cover plate is provided at the opening of the mixing tank. The cover plate has a through hole for the heat conduction pipe to pass through. The mixing element is installed on the cover plate, and the cover plate is driven by a driving device to slide vertically away from the mixing tank.

[0016] In the above technical solution, when the material is melting, the cover plate can be placed over the opening of the mixing tank to seal the opening, thereby preventing impurities in the workshop from entering the mixing tank during the material melting process and affecting the quality of the material. By setting a driving device to drive the cover plate to move up, it is convenient for workers to put materials into the mixing tank.

[0017] Furthermore, an oil outlet pipe is installed at the bottom of the mixing tank, and an oil outlet valve is installed on the oil outlet pipe. The oil outlet valve is used to supply oil to leave the mixing tank.

[0018] In the above technical solution, the melted oil can leave the mixing tank through the oil outlet pipe and the oil outlet valve.

[0019] Furthermore, the outer wall of the mixing tank is provided with a heat insulation layer.

[0020] In the above technical solution, by setting up an insulation layer, the insulation layer can reduce heat loss and thus accelerate the melting speed of the material.

[0021] In summary, this application has the following technical effects: When in use, the worker first places the material in the mixing tank, and then introduces a heat-conducting medium into the heat-conducting pipe. The heat-conducting medium heats the material in the mixing tank through the heat-conducting pipe, thereby melting the material. During the melting process, the stirring components can stir the material, thereby accelerating the melting speed. The melting process of oil usually produces unpleasant and harmful gases. During the oil melting process, the worker can turn on the exhaust fan to remove the harmful gases produced during the oil melting process, thereby ensuring the air quality of the worker's working environment.

[0030] Example 1:

[0031] Reference Figure 1One embodiment of this application provides a stirring-type heating oil melting tank, including a stirring tank 1 with an open top. The stirring tank 1 is placed on a frame and is used to contain material, which is solid, blocky oil. A cover plate 13 is placed on the stirring tank 1, and two through holes 131 are opened on the cover plate 13. The two through holes 131 are used for the same heat-conducting pipe 3 to pass through. A heat-conducting medium is passed through the heat-conducting pipe 3, and the heat-conducting medium can heat the material through the heat-conducting pipe 3. In this embodiment, the heat-conducting medium is steam. A steam generator 9 is placed next to the stirring tank 1. The steam generator 9 is used to send steam into the heat-conducting pipe 3. The steam can heat the solid oil through the heat-conducting pipe 3 to melt the oil. Then the steam is discharged from the end of the heat-conducting pipe 3 away from the steam generator 9.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The heat pipe 3 is spirally arranged inside the mixing tank 1. A stirring element 2 is installed on the cover plate 13. The stirring element 2 includes a motor mounted on the cover plate 13, a rotating shaft mounted on the output end of the motor, and multiple stirring blades mounted on the rotating shaft. The stirring blades are used to stir the material in the mixing tank 1 to accelerate the melting speed of the material. The cover plate 13 is driven vertically upward and away from the mixing tank 1 by two drive devices 14. The drive devices 14 can be any of electric actuators, cylinders, or hydraulic cylinders. The fixed end of the drive device 14 can be fixed to the ceiling of the workshop. The vertical movement of the cover plate 13 away from the mixing tank 1 makes it convenient for workers to add materials into the mixing tank 1. An oil outlet pipe 15 is installed at the bottom of the mixing tank 1, connecting the inside and outside of the mixing tank 1. An oil outlet valve 16 is installed on the oil outlet pipe 15 to allow the melted oil to leave the mixing tank 1. The outer wall of the mixing tank 1 is covered with a heat insulation layer 17, which can be made of polyurethane foam board, thereby reducing heat loss inside the mixing tank 1 and increasing the melting speed of the oil.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 A suction pipe 4 is installed above the mixing tank 1. The suction pipe 4 can be fixed to the ceiling of the workshop. A vacuum pump 5 is installed inside the suction pipe 4. Since the heat conduction pipe 3 passes through the through hole 131, there is a certain gap between the heat conduction pipe 3 and the through hole 131. During the oil melting process, uncomfortable and harmful gases will leak out from the gap, which will cause discomfort to the workers. The vacuum pump 5 can suck the harmful gases generated during the oil melting process to the outside of the workshop, thereby ensuring the gas quality of the workers' working environment.

[0034] Reference Figure 5Three fixing brackets 10 are installed on the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. The fixing brackets 10 are inverted L-shaped. Several connection holes 101 are opened through the long side of the fixing brackets 10. Two connection holes 101 are used for the same pipe clamp 11 to pass through. The pipe clamp 11 is arc-shaped and is fitted on the spiral part of the heat conduction pipe 3. Nuts 12 are threaded to both ends of the pipe clamp 11 along its length. The nuts 12 abut against the surface of the fixing bracket 10 away from the heat conduction pipe 3 so as to fix the position of the heat conduction pipe 3 relative to the mixing tank 1.

[0035] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: the drive device 14 drives the cover plate 13 to rise, the worker puts the material into the mixing tank 1, and then the drive device 14 drives the cover plate 13 to fall so that the cover plate 13 contacts the mixing tank 1. The steam generator 9 is turned on to send steam into the heat pipe 3. The steam heats the solid oil through the heat pipe 3 to melt the oil. During the oil melting process, the stirring piece 2 can rotate to accelerate the melting speed of the oil.

[0036] Example 2:

[0037] Reference Figure 6 The structure and principle of this embodiment are basically the same as those of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the heat transfer medium in this embodiment is heat transfer oil. The heat transfer oil can be a low-melting-point mixture of biphenyl and diphenyl ether. An oil storage tank 6 is placed next to the stirring tank 1. The oil storage tank 6 is used to store the heat transfer oil. An oil pump 8 is installed inside the oil storage tank 6. The oil outlet of the oil pump 8 is connected to one end of the heat transfer pipe 3. The other end of the heat transfer pipe 3 is connected to the oil storage tank 6. A heater 7 is installed inside the oil storage tank 6. The heater 7 is used to heat the heat transfer oil in the oil storage tank 6. The oil pump 8 can pump the heated heat transfer oil into the heat transfer pipe 3. The heat transfer oil can heat the solid oil through the heat transfer pipe 3 to melt the solid oil.

[0038] The working principle of this embodiment: The heat transfer medium used in this embodiment is heat transfer oil. Compared with steam, heat transfer oil has higher safety in the heating process in terms of operating pressure, temperature control and stability, equipment maintenance and corrosion resistance.

[0039] Example 3:

[0040] The structure and principle of this embodiment are basically the same as those of embodiment two. The difference is that a temperature sensor is installed in the oil tank 6. The temperature sensor can contact the heat transfer oil in the oil tank 6 to detect the oil temperature. Different solid oils require different temperatures to melt, so the temperature of the heat transfer oil flowing into the heat transfer pipe 3 is also different. The heater 7 is electrically connected to a controller. The temperature controller is electrically connected to the temperature sensor. The operator can preset the oil temperature of the heat transfer oil in the oil tank 6. When the oil temperature detected by the temperature sensor is higher than the preset value, the controller can control the temperature of the heater 7 to decrease, thereby lowering the oil temperature of the heat transfer oil in the oil tank 6, and vice versa.

[0041] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to use this equipment to melt different solid oils, the worker can preset the temperature value of the oil in the oil storage tank 6. When the oil temperature detected by the temperature sensor is higher than the preset value, the controller can control the temperature of the heater 7 to decrease, thereby reducing the temperature of the heat transfer oil in the oil storage tank 6, and vice versa.

[0042] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
