Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of food additive processing technology, and specifically relates to a food additive cooling storage tank. Background Technology

[0002] Food additives typically have low melting points. To prevent them from melting or clumping at high temperatures during processing, and to ensure they are evenly dispersed in the food while maintaining their stability and effectiveness, food additives need to be cooled in cooling storage tanks.

[0003] Existing cooling storage tanks for food additives suffer from a single cooling method, resulting in uneven cooling, longer cooling times, and reduced production efficiency.

[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a food additive cooling storage tank that can solve the problem of uneven cooling of food additives caused by a single cooling method.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by a specific embodiment of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A food additive cooling storage tank, comprising:

[0008] The main body includes an outer shell, an inner shell fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer shell, and a cooling chamber formed between the outer shell and the inner shell. A cooling medium is disposed within the cooling chamber. To prevent the food additives from melting or clumping at high temperatures after production, the food additives are transported to the inner shell. The heat from the food additives is transferred through the inner shell, and the cooling medium absorbs the heat from the food additives, thus cooling them down.

[0009] The stirring mechanism includes a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the top wall panel of the outer casing. A spiral stirring impeller is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft on the inner side wall of the outer casing. Rotation of the rotating shaft drives the spiral stirring impeller to rotate, thus stirring the food additives inside the inner casing, preventing clumping and improving cooling efficiency. A pair of stirring rods are fixedly connected to the lower side wall of the rotating shaft, stirring the food additives at the bottom of the inner casing. The cooperation between the spiral stirring impeller and the stirring rods enhances the stirring effect. An axially oriented conveying groove is formed inside the rotating shaft, and multiple vent holes are formed on the side wall of the rotating shaft, communicating with the conveying groove. The conveying groove conveys purge gas, which is injected into the inner casing through the multiple vent holes. This purge gas, ejected through the vent holes, purges the food additives stirred by the spiral stirring impeller and stirring rods, greatly improving the cooling effect.

[0010] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, a liquid inlet assembly is installed on the top wall panel of the cooling chamber for adding cooling medium into the cooling chamber. A liquid outlet assembly is installed on the bottom wall panel of the cooling chamber for discharging the cooling medium from the cooling chamber.

[0011] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, a plurality of heat dissipation fins are fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the outer shell. When the cooling medium in the cooling chamber absorbs the heat of the food additive, the heat is dissipated through the plurality of heat dissipation fins.

[0012] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, a feed pipe is installed on the top wall panel of the outer casing, through which food additives are added into the outer casing. A discharge assembly is installed on the bottom wall panel of the outer casing, through which cooled food additives are discharged.

[0013] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the inclination angle of the spiral stirring impeller relative to the central axis of the rotating shaft is set to 30-45 degrees, which makes the spiral stirring impeller have a better stirring effect on the food additives, avoids the food additives from clumping, and improves heat dissipation efficiency. The bottom of the pair of stirring rods abuts against the bottom wall plate of the outer shell, so that the stirring rods can stir the food additives at the bottom of the outer shell.

[0014] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, a plurality of vent holes are arranged on a rotating shaft with gradually increasing spacing from bottom to top, and a plurality of vent holes are arranged at equal intervals on the same cross-section of the rotating shaft. This results in a higher density of vent holes near the bottom of the rotating shaft than the density of vent holes at the top, thereby increasing the content of purge gas injected into the food additive at the bottom of the casing, thus improving the cooling effect on the food additive.

[0015] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the plurality of exhaust holes are all inclined downwards, and the angle between the exhaust holes and the central axis of the rotating shaft is set to 45 degrees. This allows the purge gas to be sprayed out in an inclined downwards manner to contact the food additives, increasing the contact time between the purge gas and the food additives, thereby improving the cooling effect on the food additives; at the same time, the downward inclination of the exhaust holes prevents the food additives from clogging them.

[0016] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the rotating shaft is provided with a plurality of air inlets on the side wall outside the outer shell, the plurality of air inlets are connected to the conveying groove, and the upper end of the rotating shaft is installed with a.

[0017] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, a rotating ring is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft outside the air inlet, and an air supply pipe is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating ring. When the air supply pipe delivers the purging gas through the rotating ring, the rotation of the rotating shaft causes the purging gas to enter the delivery groove through multiple air inlets, so that the rotation of the rotating shaft does not affect the delivery of the purging gas by the air supply pipe.

[0018] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, a cooling device is installed at the end of the gas supply pipe away from the rotating ring, and a blower is installed at the end of the cooling device away from the gas supply pipe. The purge gas provided by the blower is cooled by the cooling device and then delivered to the conveying trough to improve the cooling effect of the purge gas on the food additives.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, this utility model absorbs the heat of food additives through a cooling medium, and while the stirring mechanism stirs the food additives, it sprays purge gas onto the food additives, so that the purge gas cools the stirred food additives. Thus, the food additives are cooled evenly through heat absorption and purge cooling, which shortens the cooling time and improves the production efficiency of food additives.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this utility model, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0031] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a food additive cooling storage tank in one embodiment of the present invention includes a main body 1 and a stirring mechanism 2.

[0032] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the main body mechanism 1 includes an outer shell 11, an inner shell 12 fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer shell 11, and a cooling chamber 13 formed between the outer shell 11 and the inner shell 12. A cooling medium is disposed within the cooling chamber 13. To prevent the food additives from melting or clumping at high temperatures after production, the food additives are transported to the inner shell 12. The heat from the food additives is transferred through the inner shell 12, and the cooling medium absorbs the heat from the food additives, thus cooling them down.

[0033] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a liquid inlet assembly 14 is installed on the top wall panel of the cooling chamber 13 for adding cooling medium into the cooling chamber 13. A liquid outlet assembly 15 is installed on the bottom wall panel of the cooling chamber 13 for discharging the cooling medium from the cooling chamber 13.

[0034] like Figures 1-4 As shown, multiple heat dissipation fins 16 are fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the outer shell 11. When the cooling medium in the cooling chamber 13 absorbs the heat of the food additive, the heat is dissipated through the multiple heat dissipation fins 16.

[0035] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a feed pipe 17 is installed on the top wall panel of the outer casing 11, through which food additives are added into the outer casing 11. A discharge assembly 18 is installed on the bottom wall panel of the outer casing 11, through which cooled food additives are discharged.

[0036] like Figures 1-6As shown, the stirring mechanism 2 includes a rotating shaft 21, which is rotatably connected to the top wall of the outer shell 11. A spiral stirring impeller 22 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft 21 inside the outer shell 11. The rotation of the rotating shaft 21 drives the spiral stirring impeller 22 to rotate, which stirs the food additives inside the inner shell 12, preventing the food additives from clumping and improving the cooling efficiency of the food additives. A pair of stirring rods 23 are fixedly connected to the lower side wall of the rotating shaft 21. The pair of stirring rods 23 stir the food additives at the bottom of the inner shell 12. The cooperation between the spiral stirring impeller 22 and the stirring rods 23 improves the stirring effect of the food additives. A conveying groove 24 is formed axially inside the rotating shaft 21, and multiple vent holes 25 are formed on the side wall of the rotating shaft 21, which are connected to the conveying groove 24. The conveying trough 24 is used to convey purging gas. The purging gas conveyed by the conveying trough 24 is injected into the inner shell 12 through multiple exhaust holes 25. The gas ejected through the exhaust holes 25 purifies the food agitator after it has been stirred by the spiral stirring impeller 22 and stirring rod 23, which greatly improves the cooling effect on the food additive.

[0037] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the inclination angle of the spiral impeller 22 relative to the central axis of the rotating shaft 21 is set to 30-45 degrees, which makes the spiral impeller 22 have a better stirring effect on the food additives, avoids the food additives from clumping and improves heat dissipation efficiency. The bottom of a pair of stirring rods 23 abuts against the bottom wall plate of the outer casing 11, so that the stirring rods 23 can stir the food additives at the bottom of the outer casing 11.

[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, multiple vent holes 25 are arranged on the rotating shaft 21 with gradually increasing spacing from bottom to top, and multiple vent holes 25 are arranged at equal intervals on the same cross-section of the rotating shaft 21. This results in a higher density of vent holes 25 near the bottom of the rotating shaft 21 than at the top, thereby increasing the content of purge gas injected into the food additive at the bottom of the outer casing 11, thus improving the cooling effect on the food additive.

[0039] like Figure 5 As shown, multiple exhaust ports 25 are all inclined downwards, and the angle between the exhaust ports 25 and the central axis of the rotating shaft 21 is set to 45 degrees. This allows the purge gas to be sprayed out in an inclined downward direction to contact the food additives, increasing the contact time between the purge gas and the food additives, thereby improving the cooling effect on the food additives; at the same time, the downward inclination of the exhaust ports 25 prevents the food additives from clogging them.

[0040] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the rotating shaft 21 is provided with multiple air inlets 26 on the side wall outside the outer casing 11. The multiple air inlets 26 are connected to the conveying groove 24. The upper end of the rotating shaft 21 is equipped with 211.

[0041] like Figure 7 As shown, a rotating ring 27 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 21 on the outside of the air inlet 26. An air supply pipe 28 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating ring 27. When the air supply pipe 28 delivers the purging gas through the rotating ring 27, the rotation of the rotating shaft 21 causes the purging gas to enter the delivery groove 24 through multiple air inlets 26, so that the rotation of the rotating shaft 21 will not affect the delivery of the purging gas by the air supply pipe 28.

[0042] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a cooling device 29 is installed at the end of the gas supply pipe 28 away from the rotating ring 27, and a blower 210 is installed at the end of the cooling device 29 away from the gas supply pipe 28. The purge gas provided by the blower 210 is cooled by the cooling device 29 and then delivered to the conveying tank 24 to improve the cooling effect of the purge gas on the food additives.

[0043] In use, the food additives that need to be cooled are added into the inner shell 12 through the feed pipe 17. The starter 211 drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 21 rotates, it drives the spiral stirring impeller 22 and the stirring rod 23 to rotate. The spiral stirring impeller 22 and the stirring rod 23 can stir the food additives. Stirring avoids the food additives from clumping and improves the heat dissipation effect. The heat of the food additives is transferred through the inner shell 12 and absorbed by the cooling medium. The heat absorbed by the cooling medium is dissipated to the outside through the heat dissipation fins 16. At the same time, the blower 210 and the cooling device 29 are started. The blower 210 pressurizes the air and delivers it to the cooling device 29 for cooling. The cooled purging gas is delivered to the conveying trough 24 and then sprayed out through multiple exhaust holes 25 to contact the stirring and rolling food additives. Thus, the cooling efficiency of the food additives is further improved by the purging of the cooling gas.

[0044] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0045] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
