Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of distillation kettle technology, and in particular to a distillation kettle for extracting water-soluble flavorings. Background Technology
[0002] Flavor extraction is an important process in the food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. Water-soluble flavors are usually extracted by distillation, which involves heating to evaporate volatile components and then collecting them by condensation.
[0003] Currently, most fragrance extraction methods employ distillation. The general procedure involves injecting the fragrance concentrate into a reaction vessel, heating the vessel, and distilling out the water from the fragrance concentrate through high-temperature distillation. The water is then discharged through steam, and the remaining concentrated fragrance liquid is collected.
[0004] Based on the aforementioned technologies, the applicant believes that in existing flavor distillation methods, the flavor concentrate is mostly stationary during the heating process, lacking a turbulence-inducing mechanism. In fluids, heat conduction is mainly achieved through molecular collisions, but the thermal conductivity of fluids is usually low, resulting in slow heating efficiency of the flavor concentrate in a static state, which is not conducive to rapid distillation. To address the above problems, we have introduced a distillation vessel for the extraction of water-soluble flavors. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and marked in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0030] The distillation vessel disclosed in this utility model for extracting water-soluble flavorings is mainly used in distillation vessel scenarios.
[0031] Reference Figures 1-6A distillation vessel for extracting water-soluble flavorings includes a distillation vessel body 1. Support legs 2 are fixedly connected in a circular array at the bottom of the distillation vessel body 1. A fixed plate 6 is fixedly connected inside the distillation vessel body 1, and an clearance opening 7 is provided inside the fixed plate 6. An agitation mechanism is provided inside the distillation vessel body 1, comprising a turbulence component and a distillation component, which cooperate with each other. The turbulence component includes a fixed frame 81, which is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 6. A power motor 82 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed frame 81. A connecting frame 83 is fixedly connected to the outside of the power motor 82. A swing shaft 84 is symmetrically rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting frame 83. A swing frame 85 is rotatably connected between the two swing shafts 84. A mixing motor 87 is rotatably connected inside the swing frame 85. A swing plate 86 is fixedly connected to the output end of the power motor 82. The bottom of the swing plate 86 is rotatably connected to the top of the mixing motor 87. A stirring shaft 88 is fixedly connected to the output end of the mixing motor 87. Stirring blades 89 are equidistantly fixedly connected to the outside of the stirring shaft 88. The distillation assembly includes an outlet pipe 3, which is fixedly connected to the outside of the distillation vessel body 1. An exhaust pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the outside of the distillation vessel body 1 and to the side away from the outlet pipe 3. Feed pipes 5 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the distillation vessel body 1. The bottoms of the two feed pipes 5 extend into the interior of the distillation vessel body 1. A heating wire 9 for heating is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the distillation vessel body 1.
[0032] In this embodiment, water-soluble flavoring concentrate is injected into the body 1 of the distillation vessel through the feed pipe 5. Subsequently, the controller 14 activates the heating wire 9 to heat the liquid inside the vessel. Simultaneously, the power motor 82 drives the oscillating plate 86 to rotate, causing the connected mixing motor 87 and stirring shaft 88 to move accordingly. The mixing motor 87 independently drives the stirring shaft 88 to rotate at high speed, causing the stirring blades 89 to create multi-directional turbulence in the liquid. This combined motion mode (oscillation + rotation) generates a strong turbulent effect in the flavoring concentrate, effectively disrupting the thermal boundary layer and promoting rapid and uniform temperature distribution within the vessel. During the heating process, volatile components vaporize upon heating, and the steam enters the subsequent condensation system through the exhaust pipe 4. The concentrated flavoring is discharged and collected from the liquid outlet pipe 3. The mixing motor 87 and the power motor 82 are Siemens 1LE0 models. These motors have the advantages of high temperature resistance, steam resistance, corrosion resistance, and insulation. Through the set stirring mechanism, the flavoring concentrate can be quickly disturbed, avoiding the flavoring concentrate being in a static state during the heating process. This improves the efficiency of temperature conduction and greatly improves the efficiency of distillation. The structure is simple and highly practical.
[0033] In the above technical solution, considering that in existing flavor distillation methods, the flavor concentrate is mostly stationary during heating and lacks a flow-disrupting mechanism, and heat conduction in fluids is mainly achieved through molecular collisions, but the thermal conductivity of fluids is usually low, resulting in slow heating efficiency of the flavor concentrate in a static state, which is not conducive to rapid distillation, the specific operation is as follows:
[0034] Reference Figures 1-6 In a preferred embodiment, a connection port 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the distillation vessel body 1, and a sealing cap 10 is threadedly connected to the top of the connection port 11. A pull bracket 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing cap 10. An observation window 13 is provided on the front of the distillation vessel body 1, and the observation window 13 is made of high-temperature resistant glass. A controller 14 is fixedly connected to the front of the distillation vessel body 1 and above the observation window 13. The power motor 82, the mixing motor 87, and the heating wire 9 are all electrically connected to the controller 14.
[0035] In this embodiment: the threaded connection structure between the connector 11 and the sealing cap 10 ensures the sealing of the distillation vessel, preventing leakage of volatile components. The pull-out bracket 12 facilitates opening and closing, improving ease of use. The observation window 13 is made of high-temperature resistant glass, allowing real-time monitoring of the distillation process and preventing damage due to excessive temperature, while ensuring operational safety. The controller 14 is located above the observation window 13, facilitating parameter adjustment by the operator and improving the precise control of the distillation process. The mixing motor 87 and heating wire 9 are both electrically connected to the controller 14, enabling automated control. The stirring speed and heating temperature can be adjusted as needed to optimize distillation efficiency.
[0036] Working Principle: During operation, the operator first injects the water-soluble flavoring concentrate into the main body 1 of the distillation vessel through the feed pipe 5. Then, the controller 14 activates the heating wire 9 to heat the liquid inside the vessel. Simultaneously, the power motor 82 drives the oscillating plate 86 to rotate, causing the connected mixing motor 87 and stirring shaft 88 to move accordingly. The mixing motor 87 independently drives the stirring shaft 88 to rotate at high speed, causing the stirring blades 89 to create multi-directional turbulence in the liquid. This combined motion mode (oscillation + rotation) generates a strong turbulent effect in the flavoring concentrate, effectively disrupting the thermal boundary layer and promoting rapid and uniform temperature distribution within the vessel. During heating, volatile components vaporize, and the vapor enters the subsequent condensation system through the exhaust pipe 4, while the concentrated flavoring is discharged and collected from the liquid outlet pipe 3. The high-temperature resistant observation window 13 allows monitoring of the distillation vessel's status (observed after steaming is complete, without water vapor obstructing the view). The controller 14 can precisely adjust the power of the heating wire 9 and the speed of the mixing motor 87 to achieve dynamic matching between heating intensity and stirring efficiency. This improves the distillation speed while avoiding damage to flavor components caused by local overheating, ultimately achieving efficient and stable extraction of water-soluble flavors.

The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
