Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of degassing tanks, and in particular to a degassing tank feeding structure. Background Technology

[0002] In the food processing industry, degassing is a crucial step in ensuring food quality and extending shelf life. Currently, in some food processing processes, traditional feeding structures use simple straight-cylinder feeding methods. When material enters the degassing tank, it concentrates in a small area and cannot be evenly distributed within the degassing space. Taking juice production as an example, if the juice is not evenly distributed after entering the degassing tank, a large amount of juice will accumulate in certain areas, limiting the contact area with the degassing space and making it difficult to effectively increase the degassing area. This not only affects degassing efficiency and prolongs production time, but may also affect the taste and nutritional components of the juice due to excessive or insufficient degassing in certain areas, thus reducing product quality.

[0003] Therefore, a degassing tank feeding structure is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a degassing tank feeding structure so that when the material leaves the feeding structure, it can be sprayed out along the perimeter of the discharge port, thereby increasing the effective degassing contact area inside the degassing tank, thereby improving degassing efficiency and production quality.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a degassing tank feeding structure, including a feeding pipe, a valve stem, and a linkage component;

[0006] The valve stem passes through the feed pipe and can slide back and forth along the axis of the feed pipe to open or close the outlet of the feed pipe.

[0007] The valve stem includes a fixed rod, a rotating rod, and a guide plate;

[0008] One end of the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the fixed rod, and the other end extends to the outside of the feed pipe and is fixedly connected to the guide plate;

[0009] The guide plate can be attached to or separated from the outlet end face of the feed pipe;

[0010] The linkage is disposed between the rotating rod and the inner wall of the feed pipe;

[0011] When the fixed rod drives the rotating rod to slide back and forth, causing the guide plate to be in contact with or separate from the outlet end face of the feed pipe, the rotating rod can rotate back and forth relative to the fixed rod under the action of the linkage, so as to synchronously drive the guide plate to rotate back and forth.

[0012] Furthermore, the linkage includes a spiral groove and a connecting column;

[0013] The spiral groove is disposed on the inner wall of the feed pipe;

[0014] One end of the connecting column is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, and the other end extends into the spiral groove;

[0015] When the rotating rod moves along the axis of the feed tube, the connecting column deflects around the axis of the feed tube under the squeezing action of the inner wall of the spiral groove, so that the rotating rod can rotate relative to the fixed rod when it moves.

[0016] Furthermore, a liquid separator is provided inside the feed pipe;

[0017] The liquid distribution plate is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the feed pipe, and a limiting through hole matching the fixing rod is provided in the middle.

[0018] Furthermore, the liquid distribution plate is provided with multiple liquid distribution through holes at a position off-center from the center;

[0019] The plurality of liquid distribution holes are arranged in a ring at equal intervals with the center of the liquid distribution plate as the axis.

[0020] Furthermore, the liquid separating orifice is configured with a waist-shaped structure.

[0021] Furthermore, the guide plate has a protrusion in the middle of the end face facing the outlet of the feed pipe, which is used to guide the liquid to spray out along the edge of the guide plate.

[0022] Furthermore, the protrusion is configured as a frustum-shaped structure with an increasing outer diameter from top to bottom, and the outer wall of the frustum-shaped structure has an arc-shaped transition surface.

[0023] Furthermore, the guide plate and the rotating rod are detachably connected by threads.

[0024] Furthermore, a support plate is provided on the outer wall of the feed pipe;

[0025] The support plate is provided with a driving component for controlling the fixed rod to reciprocate along the axis of the feed tube.

[0026] The end of the fixed rod away from the rotating rod is sealed through the feed pipe and connected to the output end of the drive component.

[0027] Furthermore, a feed inlet is provided on one side of the feed pipe.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0029] By installing a reciprocating sliding valve stem inside the feed pipe, and having the valve stem include a fixed rod, a rotating rod, and a guide plate, with the guide plate either attached to or separated from the outlet end face of the feed pipe, when the material is ejected from the outlet of the feed pipe, it will splash around the guide plate due to the interception effect of the guide plate. Compared with the traditional direct discharge method, this can effectively increase the effective degassing contact area of ​​the material, thereby improving degassing efficiency and production quality.

[0030] Furthermore, by setting up a linkage, when the fixed rod moves back and forth along the axis of the feed pipe, the rotating rod can rotate back and forth under the action of the linkage. Since the guide plate and the rotating rod are fixedly connected, the guide plate will also rotate back and forth synchronously. This causes the material to be subjected to centrifugal force splashing outward when it is on the guide plate, so as to further increase the effective degassing contact area of ​​the material and achieve the purpose of further improving degassing efficiency and production quality.

[0038] The degassing tank feeding structure of this utility model will be described in more detail below with reference to the schematic diagram, which illustrates the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can modify the utility model described herein while still achieving the advantageous effects of this utility model. Therefore, the following description should be understood as being of general knowledge to those skilled in the art and is not intended to limit this utility model.

[0039] Furthermore, based on the teachings of this specification, those skilled in the art can form new technical solutions through cross-combination of different implementation methods without creating technical contradictions. Such variations should all be considered to fall within the protection scope of this patent.

[0040] The present invention will be described in more detail below by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a degassing tank feeding structure, including a feeding pipe 1, a valve stem 2, and a linkage component 3.

[0042] The valve stem 2 passes through the feed pipe 1 and can slide reciprocally along the axis of the feed pipe 1 to open or close the outlet of the feed pipe 1. By setting the valve stem 2, the material is guided to be sprayed intermittently along the periphery of the outlet, so that the material can be evenly dispersed in the degassing tank, thereby increasing the effective degassing contact area of ​​the material.

[0043] In this embodiment, the valve stem 2 includes a fixed rod 21, a rotating rod 22, and a guide plate 23.

[0044] One end of the rotating rod 22 is rotatably connected to the fixed rod 21, and the other end extends to the outside of the feed pipe 1 and is fixedly connected to the guide plate 23.

[0045] The guide plate 23 can be attached to or detached from the outlet end face of the feed pipe 1. Specifically, when the fixing rod 21 drives the rotating rod 22 to move downward along the axis of the feed pipe 1 (e.g. Figure 3 As shown), the guide plate 23 separates from the outlet end face of the feed pipe 1. At this time, the material is intercepted by the guide plate 23 and sprayed out around the outlet of the feed pipe 1. When the fixed rod 21 drives the rotating rod 22 to move upward along the axis of the feed pipe 1 (as shown), the material is sprayed out around the outlet of the feed pipe 1. Figure 2As shown in the figure, the guide plate 23 is made to fit against the outlet end face of the feed pipe 1 to close the outlet of the feed pipe 1. Therefore, the feed pipe 1 outlet can be intermittently opened or closed by reciprocatingly controlling the movement of the fixed rod 21, so that the material input into the degassing tank can fully contact the degassing space, thereby increasing the effective degassing area of ​​the material and thus improving degassing efficiency and production quality.

[0046] In this embodiment, the linkage 3 is disposed between the rotating rod 22 and the inner wall of the feed pipe 1.

[0047] It should be noted that when the fixed rod 21 drives the rotating rod 22 to slide back and forth, so that the guide plate 23 is in contact with or separated from the outlet end face of the feed pipe 1, under the action of the linkage 3, the rotating rod 22 can rotate back and forth relative to the fixed rod 21, so as to synchronously drive the guide plate 23 to rotate back and forth.

[0048] By setting the linkage 3, the rotating rod 22 can also rotate on its own when it moves along the axis of the feed pipe 1 following the fixed rod 21, so as to drive the guide plate 23 to rotate accordingly. This allows the material in contact with the guide plate 23 to be subjected to centrifugal force, thereby further increasing the contact area between the material and the degassing space in the degassing tank, and achieving the purpose of further improving degassing efficiency and production quality.

[0049] This device uses a reciprocating sliding valve stem 2 installed inside the feed pipe 1. The valve stem 2 includes a fixed rod 21, a rotating rod 22, and a guide plate 23. The guide plate 23 is either attached to or separated from the outlet end face of the feed pipe 1. When the material is ejected from the outlet of the feed pipe 1, it will splash around the guide plate 23 due to the interception effect of the guide plate 23. Compared with the traditional direct discharge method, this can effectively increase the effective degassing contact area of ​​the material, thereby improving degassing efficiency and production quality.

[0050] Furthermore, by setting a linkage 3, when the fixed rod 21 moves reciprocally along the axis of the feed pipe 1, the rotating rod 22 can rotate reciprocally under the action of the linkage 3. Since the guide plate 23 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 22, the guide plate 23 will also rotate synchronously (e.g., Figure 3 As shown in the Va direction, when the material is located on the guide plate 23, it will be subjected to centrifugal force that splashes outward, so as to further increase the effective degassing contact area of ​​the material and achieve the purpose of further improving degassing efficiency and production quality.

[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in a further embodiment, a specific linkage 3 is also proposed, so that the rotating rod 22 can be rotated autonomously by simply controlling the movement of the fixed rod 21 without the need for external power input, thereby reducing the cost of the device.

[0052] Specifically, the linkage 3 includes a spiral groove 31 and a connecting column 32.

[0053] The spiral groove 31 is provided on the inner wall of the feed pipe 1, one end of the connecting column 32 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 22, and the other end extends into the spiral groove 31.

[0054] When the rotating rod 22 moves along the axis of the feed pipe 1, the connecting column 32 deflects around the axis of the feed pipe 1 under the squeezing action of the inner wall of the spiral groove 31, allowing the rotating rod 22 to rotate relative to the fixed rod 21 during its movement. That is, by setting the connecting column 32 and the spiral groove 31, the connecting column 32 deflects around the axis of the feed pipe 1 simultaneously as it moves along the axis. Since the connecting column 32 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 22, the rotating rod 22 can rotate synchronously during its movement. Correspondingly, this allows the guide plate 23 to move and open the outlet of the feed pipe 1 while simultaneously rotating to provide centrifugal force. This allows the material in contact with the guide plate 23 to be better dispersed into the degassing tank by centrifugal force, thereby increasing the effective degassing contact area of ​​the material.

[0055] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in other embodiments, in order to further increase the effective degassing contact area of ​​the material, a liquid distribution plate 4 is also provided, so that the material can be diverted before contacting the guide plate 23, breaking the concentrated spraying of the material and providing a basis for subsequent rotational dispersion.

[0056] Specifically, a liquid separator 4 is provided inside the feed pipe 1.

[0057] The liquid distribution plate 4 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the feed pipe 1, and a limiting through hole 41 matching the fixing rod 21 is provided in the middle. That is, the limiting through hole 41 on the liquid distribution plate 4 constrains and limits the fixing rod 21, so that the fixing rod 21 can move along a predetermined trajectory without deviation, thereby improving stability.

[0058] In this embodiment, the liquid distribution plate 4 is provided with multiple liquid distribution through holes 42 at a position off-center from the center for material separation.

[0059] The plurality of liquid dispensing holes 42 are arranged in a ring at equal intervals with the center of the liquid dispensing plate 4 as the axis.

[0060] In this embodiment, the liquid separation orifice 42 is configured with a waist-shaped structure to improve the material separation effect.

[0061] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in other embodiments, the shape of the guide plate 23 is further defined to further improve the dispersion effect of the guide plate 23 on the material when it comes into contact with the material.

[0062] Specifically, the guide plate 23 has a protrusion 231 in the middle of the end face facing the outlet of the feed pipe 1, which is used to guide the liquid to spray out along the edge of the guide plate 23. That is, by setting the protrusion 231, the material is prevented from accumulating.

[0063] In this embodiment, the protrusion 231 is configured as a frustum-shaped structure with an increasing outer diameter from top to bottom, and the outer wall of the frustum-shaped structure has an arc-shaped transition surface, that is, by setting the arc-shaped transition surface, the material ejection rate is accelerated.

[0064] It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the replacement or cleaning of the guide plate 23, the guide plate 23 and the rotating rod 22 are also configured to be detachably connected by threads.

[0065] In other embodiments, a support plate 5 is provided on the outer wall of the feed pipe 1, and a driving member 6 is provided on the support plate 5 for controlling the fixed rod 21 to reciprocate along the axis of the feed pipe 1.

[0066] Specifically, the end of the fixed rod 21 away from the rotating rod 22 is sealed through the feed pipe 1 and connected to the output end of the drive component 6.

[0067] In one example, the drive element 6 is configured as a cylinder or an electric telescopic rod.

[0068] It should be noted that an annular sealing ring (not marked in the figure) is provided at the opening on the feed pipe 1 through which the fixing rod 21 passes to prevent external impurities from contaminating the material.

[0069] In other embodiments, in order to facilitate the input of materials into the feed pipe 1, a feed port 11 is provided on one side of the feed pipe 1, and the feed port 11 is arranged perpendicular to the feed pipe 1.

[0070] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when the feed pipe 1 is installed on the degassing tank structure, the axis of the feed pipe 1 is parallel to the direction of gravity, so that the material can smoothly contact the guide plate 23 under the action of gravity, and no material residue will occur.

[0071] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
