Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corn washing technology, specifically a steam recycling device for a high-temperature corn washing tank. Background Technology

[0002] Corn belongs to the genus *Zea* of the tribe Zea in the family Poaceae. Its scientific name is *Zea mays*, and it is commonly known as corn, maize, or sorghum. With the development of global navigation, corn gradually spread throughout the world and became one of the most important food crops. Corn is often called a longevity food, containing abundant protein, fat, vitamins, trace elements, and polysaccharides, and has great potential for developing highly nutritious and biologically functional foods.

[0003] In the corn processing process, the corn generally needs to be washed. In the existing technology, in order to sterilize the corn while washing it, a steam hood is usually installed on the washing tank used for washing corn. By supplying high-temperature steam into the steam hood, the corn can be sterilized at high temperature while being washed. During the washing process, in order to maintain the high temperature inside the steam hood, steam needs to be continuously supplied into the steam hood. Excess steam will be discharged from the exhaust pipe. The discharged excess steam still has a high temperature. If it is discharged directly, it will result in a waste of heat energy.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a steam recycling device for a high-temperature corn washing tank. Utility Model Content

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a steam recycling device for a high-temperature corn washing tank, which solves the problem that during the corn washing process, excess steam is discharged from the exhaust pipe, and the discharged excess steam still has a high temperature, which would result in a waste of heat energy if it is directly discharged.

[0007] (II) Technical Solution

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a steam recycling device for a high-temperature corn washing tank, comprising a washing tank, a steam hood, an exhaust assembly, and a preheating water tank. The steam hood is installed on the washing tank. The exhaust assembly includes an exhaust pipe fixedly connected to the top of the steam hood and a spiral air guide pipe rotatably installed in the preheating water tank. The upper end of the spiral air guide pipe is rotatably connected to the exhaust pipe via a rotary joint, and the lower end of the spiral air guide pipe is rotatably connected to an outlet pipe via a rotary joint. The bottom of the preheating water tank is provided with a driving component for driving the spiral air guide pipe to rotate.

[0009] The preheating tank is equipped with an inlet valve and an outlet valve on one side.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the preheating water tank can be filled with room temperature water in advance. When washing corn, excess steam is discharged from the exhaust pipe, enters the spiral air guide pipe through the exhaust pipe, and is finally discharged from the outlet pipe. When the steam passes through the spiral air guide pipe, the water in the preheating water tank will absorb the residual heat of the steam in the spiral air guide pipe and rise in temperature. After the water in the preheating water tank is heated, it can be used to replenish water for the steam generator, so that the water replenished to the steam generator has an initial temperature, reducing the energy consumption of the steam generator and avoiding the waste of heat energy.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the preheating water tank is provided with a cover, and the driving component is disposed inside the cover.

[0012] Preferably, the driving component includes a motor fixedly installed inside the housing, the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to a main gear, and the lower end of the spiral air guide pipe is fixedly installed with a driven gear that meshes with the main gear.

[0013] Preferably, a number of uniformly distributed heat-conducting plates are fixedly connected to the surface of the spiral air guide tube.

[0014] Preferably, temperature sensors are installed on both the inner top and bottom walls of the preheating water tank.

[0015] Preferably, the preheated water tank is provided with an insulation layer on its exterior.

[0016] Preferably, a controller is installed on the outer wall of the preheating tank.

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a method with the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. This utility model, by setting up an exhaust assembly and a preheating water tank, allows the preheating water tank to be filled with room temperature water in advance. When washing corn, excess steam is discharged from the exhaust pipe, enters the spiral air guide pipe through the exhaust pipe, and is finally discharged from the outlet pipe. When the steam passes through the spiral air guide pipe, the water in the preheating water tank absorbs the residual heat of the steam in the spiral air guide pipe and is heated. After the water in the preheating water tank is heated, it can be used to replenish water for the steam generator, so that the water replenished to the steam generator has an initial temperature, reducing the energy consumption of the steam generator and avoiding the waste of heat energy.

[0020] 2. This utility model, by setting a driving component, can start a motor to drive the main gear to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear to rotate, which in turn drives the spiral air guide tube to rotate. The spiral air guide tube agitates the water in the preheating tank, ensuring that the spiral air guide tube is in full contact with the water, thereby improving the heat absorption efficiency.

[0031] This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0032] Please see Figures 1-4A steam recycling device for a high-temperature corn washing tank includes a washing tank 1, a steam hood 2, an exhaust assembly 3, and a preheating water tank 4. The steam hood 2 is installed on the washing tank 1. Corn can be washed by adding it to the washing tank 1. During washing, high-temperature steam can be supplied to the steam hood 2 to sterilize the corn during the washing process. The exhaust assembly 3 includes an exhaust pipe 31 fixedly connected to the top of the steam hood 2 and a spiral air guide pipe 32 rotatably installed in the preheating water tank 4. The spiral air guide pipe 32 is a heat-conducting copper pipe. The upper end of the spiral air guide pipe 32 is rotatably connected to the exhaust pipe 31 through a rotary joint, and the lower end of the spiral air guide pipe 32 is rotatably connected to a... The exhaust pipe 33 and the preheating water tank 4 are respectively equipped with an inlet valve 41 and an outlet valve 42 on one side. By setting up the exhaust assembly 3 and the preheating water tank 4, room temperature water can be pre-filled into the preheating water tank 4. When washing corn, excess steam is discharged from the exhaust pipe 31, enters the spiral air guide pipe 32 through the exhaust pipe 31, and is finally discharged from the exhaust pipe 33. When the steam passes through the spiral air guide pipe 32, the water in the preheating water tank 4 will absorb the residual heat of the steam in the spiral air guide pipe 32 and rise in temperature. After the water in the preheating water tank 4 is heated, it can be used to replenish water for the steam generator, so that the water replenished to the steam generator has an initial temperature, reducing the energy consumption of the steam generator and avoiding the waste of heat energy.

[0033] Specifically, the bottom of the preheating water tank 4 is provided with a drive component 34 for driving the spiral air guide pipe 32 to rotate. The bottom of the preheating water tank 4 is provided with a cover 35, and the drive component 34 is located inside the cover 35. The drive component 34 includes a motor 341 fixedly installed inside the cover 35. The output end of the motor 341 is fixedly connected to a main gear 342. The lower end of the spiral air guide pipe 32 is fixedly installed with a driven gear 343 that meshes with the main gear 342. By setting the drive component 34, the motor 341 can be started to drive the main gear 342 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 343 to rotate, which in turn drives the spiral air guide pipe 32 to rotate. The spiral air guide pipe 32 agitates the water in the preheating water tank 4, ensuring that the spiral air guide pipe 32 is in full contact with the water and improving the heat absorption efficiency.

[0034] Furthermore, a number of uniformly distributed heat-conducting plates 36 are fixedly connected to the surface of the spiral air guide tube 32. By setting the heat-conducting plates 36, the contact area between the spiral air guide tube 32 and the water can be increased, thereby further improving the heat absorption efficiency.

[0035] Furthermore, temperature sensors 43 are installed on the inner top and bottom walls of the preheating water tank 4. By installing temperature sensors 43, the water temperature in the preheating water tank 4 can be monitored in real time. When the water temperature reaches a suitable value, the water can be discharged for use.

[0036] Furthermore, the preheating water tank 4 is provided with an insulation layer 44 on the outside. By providing the insulation layer 44, the preheating water tank 4 can be kept warm and heat-insulated, reducing the loss of heat inside the preheating water tank 4.

[0037] Furthermore, a controller 45 is installed on the outer wall of the preheating water tank 4, which can control the motor 341.

[0038] In practical use, the working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0039] First, during cleaning, high-temperature steam can be supplied into the steam hood 2 to sterilize the corn during the cleaning process. Excess steam is discharged from the exhaust pipe 31, enters the spiral air guide pipe 32 through the exhaust pipe 31, and is finally discharged from the exhaust pipe 33. When the steam passes through the spiral air guide pipe 32, the water in the preheating water tank 4 will absorb the residual heat of the steam in the spiral air guide pipe 32 and be heated. After the water in the preheating water tank 4 is heated, it can be used to replenish the steam generator.

[0040] During operation, the motor 341 can be started to drive the main gear 342 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 343 to rotate, which in turn drives the spiral air guide tube 32 to rotate. The spiral air guide tube 32 agitates the water in the preheated water tank 4, ensuring that the spiral air guide tube 32 is in full contact with the water and improving the heat absorption efficiency.

[0041] To further improve heat absorption efficiency, heat-conducting plates 36 are provided on the surface of the spiral air guide tube 32, which can increase the contact area between the spiral air guide tube 32 and water.

[0042] In summary, the steam recycling device of this high-temperature corn washing tank, by setting up an exhaust component 3 and a preheating water tank 4, can recycle the waste heat in the excess steam, reduce the energy consumption of the steam generator, and avoid the waste of heat energy.

[0043] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the technical features of this utility model are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent substitutions, or modifications made based on this utility model to solve essentially the same technical problems and achieve essentially the same technical effects are all covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
