Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a heating sterilization device for brewing honey wine and fruit wine. Background Technology

[0002] Honey fruit wine is a beverage made by fermenting honey with fruits (such as grapes, apples, cherries, etc.). Its color varies depending on the type of fruit, ranging from clear amber to vibrant rainbow colors, exuding the fresh aroma of fruit and the sweet fragrance of honey. In terms of taste, it combines the bright sweet and sour flavor of fruit with the mellow and lingering richness of honey. It typically has a low alcohol content, making it suitable for everyday drinking. It blends the nutrition of honey with the flavor of fruit, creating a delicious and unique beverage that offers a distinctive taste experience, perfect for enjoying at the table or during leisure time. During the fermentation process, in addition to beneficial microorganisms such as yeast, bacteria and mold may also be present. Heat sterilization destroys the cell structure and enzyme activity of these microorganisms through high temperatures, preventing their continued reproduction and avoiding spoilage, souring, or off-flavors, thus extending the shelf life.

[0003] For example, patent CN222519448U discloses a honey heating and sterilization device for brewing honey wine and fruit wine, including a shell and a heating tank. The heating tank has a top cover, a discharge pipe on the lower side, and a feeding hopper and a stirring assembly installed on the top cover. A fixed column is fixedly connected to the bottom of the shell, and a support plate is installed on the top of the fixed column. An electric heater and a temperature sensor are installed at the bottom of the shell. The stirring assembly includes a motor, and a stirring shaft is installed at the output end of the motor. A paddle and a guide plate are installed on the stirring shaft. An annular scraper is provided inside the heating tank and fits against the side wall of the heating tank. Two vertical rods that can move up and down are installed through the top cover, and the bottom of the vertical rods are connected to the annular scraper.

[0004] However, in existing technologies, honey is prone to denaturation at high temperatures, and its sugars can trigger irreversible caramelization, leading to a darker color and deteriorated flavor. Furthermore, existing sterilization devices often experience temperature fluctuations outside the ideal range when sterilizing honey-fruit wine due to insufficient temperature control precision. This can not only damage the active substances and fruit aroma components in the honey but also exacerbate the caramelization reaction due to localized overheating, resulting in an unbalanced flavor profile, such as excessive sweetness or burnt bitterness. It is difficult to achieve a precise balance between sterilization requirements and flavor preservation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing a heating sterilization device for brewing mead and fruit wine.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a heating and sterilization device for brewing honey wine and fruit wine, comprising an outer tank, an inner tank installed inside the outer tank, an electric heater installed on the outer side wall of the outer tank, the electric heater being used for water bath heating inside the outer tank, a boss being raised at the center of the inner tank, the inner tank dividing the internal space into multiple chambers through the boss, and the chambers containing fruit wine raw materials.

[0021] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0022] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0023] Example 1: As Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a heating and sterilization device for brewing honey wine and fruit wine, including an outer tank 1, an inner tank 5 installed inside the outer tank 1, an electric heater 7 installed on the outer side wall of the outer tank 1, the electric heater 7 is used for water bath heating inside the outer tank 1, a boss 11 is raised upward at the center of the inner tank 5, the inner tank 5 divides the internal space into multiple chambers through the boss 11, and the chambers are filled with fruit wine raw materials.

[0024] The specific settings and functions of this embodiment will be described in detail below. Honey sterilization and caramelization prevention require a coordinated approach from four dimensions: "temperature control precision + process segmentation + equipment matching + component adjustment". Low-temperature segmented sterilization at 60-65℃ is preferred, combined with a vacuum environment or microwave technology. At the same time, moisture regulation and antioxidants are used to inhibit browning precursor reactions, achieving a balance between sterilization efficiency and quality preservation. Water bath heating improves temperature control precision. The water used for heating is above the liquid level of honey in the inner tank 5, and the honey in the inner tank 5 exceeds the height of the boss 11, allowing free heat exchange between the honey in each chamber and maintaining an overall uniform heat state. During heating sterilization, the electric heater 7 is activated first to heat the water. The output frequency of the electric heater 7 is controlled to prevent the water temperature from exceeding 65℃. Through the characteristics of "indirect heat conduction + uniform temperature control", it becomes the core equipment component for low-temperature honey sterilization. Its advantage is to avoid local overheating caused by direct heating. At the same time, through structural design such as half-tube and honeycomb, heat exchange efficiency is optimized, and precise control is made within the anti-caramelization temperature range, achieving the dual goals of sterilization and quality protection.

[0025] Example 2: Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an outer cover 2 is movably connected to the top opening of the outer tank 1, and an inner cover 8 is movably connected to the top opening of the inner tank 5. A servo motor 3 is mounted on the top surface of the outer cover 2, and a reducer 4 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 3. A circular mounting base 9 is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the inner cover 8, and the servo motor 3 is driven by the circular mounting base 9 through the reducer 4. A feed inlet is provided on the surface of the inner cover 8, and a sealing cap 10 is installed at the feed inlet. A sealing ring is provided at the mounting point of the inner tank 5 and the inner cover 8, and a support platform 6 is installed on the inner side wall of the outer tank 1. A stabilizer is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the outer tank 1, and feet are installed at the bottom of the outer tank 1.

[0026] The overall effect of this embodiment is as follows: to avoid the problem of caramelization and sedimentation caused by the lack of flow in some areas of honey, after installing the inner cover 8 on the top of the inner tank 5, the inner tank 5 is driven to rotate inside the outer tank 1 by the servo motor 3 on the surface of the outer tank 1. The inner tank 5 is suspended by four sets of support platforms 6, so that the honey is kept in a flowing state to receive the heating of water temperature, further avoiding the problem of honey caramelization caused by heating sterilization. A thermometer is installed on the outer wall of the outer tank 1 to monitor the water temperature inside the outer tank 1 in time, so as to avoid the honey denaturation caused by exceeding the set temperature. A sealing cap 10 is opened on the surface of the inner cover 8, so that the sealing cap 10 can be opened in time to add honey.

[0027] The device's operation and working principle are as follows: During operation, the electric heater 7 on the outside of the outer tank 1 heats the water inside, ensuring the water level is above the honey level in the inner tank 5. The raised platform 11 in the center of the inner tank 5 divides the internal space into multiple chambers. The honey level above the platform 11 allows for free heat exchange between chambers, maintaining uniform heat. The water temperature is controlled below 65℃ by controlling the output frequency of the electric heater 7, achieving uniform temperature control through indirect heat conduction. The servo motor 3 on the top surface of the outer cover 2 drives the inner cover 8 and the inner tank 5 to rotate within the outer tank 1 via a reducer 4. The inner tank 5 is suspended by four sets of support platforms 6, keeping the honey in a flowing state to receive water heating and preventing localized caramelization. A thermometer on the outside of the outer tank 1 can monitor the water temperature in real time. The sealing cap 10 on the surface of the inner cover 8 is used to add honey, thereby achieving low-temperature segmented sterilization and quality protection of the honey.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
