Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of honey concentration and evaporation devices, and in particular to a honey concentration and evaporation device. Background Technology
[0002] During the honey production and processing process, the honey contains a certain amount of water, which prevents the honey concentration from reaching the specified concentration. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the water from the honey. The most common way to remove water is through physical high-temperature evaporation, which allows the honey to be concentrated quickly. Therefore, special honey concentration and evaporation equipment is often used in honey production.
[0003] To address this, patent specification CN220968091U discloses a honey concentration and evaporation device, relating to the honey processing field. The device includes a positioning base plate, a support plate fixedly mounted on the top of the positioning base plate, a drive assembly mounted on the right side of the support plate, a processing barrel mounted on the moving end of the drive assembly, a cover plate movably connected to the left side of the processing barrel via a rotating shaft, a fixing block fixedly mounted on the top of the cover plate, and a fixing plate movably connected to the fixing block via a rotating shaft. A locking block is fixedly mounted on the top of the processing barrel, inserting into the inner cavity of the fixing plate. A feed pipe is connected to the left side of the cover plate, and a discharge pipe is connected to the bottom of the processing barrel. This invention solves the problem of insufficient uniform heating of honey in similar devices, resulting in some areas of the honey being overheated while other areas are too cold. The concentration and evaporation device provided by this invention ensures that the processed honey has a uniform color, taste, and nutritional composition, significantly improving product quality. This invention also has the advantage of easy cleaning. While the above-mentioned honey concentration and evaporation device has a good concentration and evaporation effect during use, some problems still exist:
[0004] When the above-mentioned honey concentration and evaporation device is in use, honey has a certain viscosity. During the concentration and evaporation process, the viscosity of the honey will gradually increase as the honey is concentrated, which will easily result in a large amount of residue during the processing. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a honey concentration and evaporation device to solve the problem of excessive residue in existing honey concentration and evaporation devices.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a honey concentration and evaporation device, comprising an evaporator body and a top cover, a control panel fixedly connected to one end of the evaporator body, a discharge pipe fixedly connected to the bottom end of one side of the evaporator body, an electromagnetic switch valve installed on one side of the discharge pipe, a top cover installed on the top of the evaporator body, a heat insulation pipe fixedly connected to the other side of the evaporator body, an electric heating mechanism installed at one end of the heat insulation pipe, a feed inlet fixedly connected to one side of the top of the top cover, a motor assembly fixedly connected to the middle position of the top of the top cover, a vacuum pump fixedly connected to the other side of the top of the top cover, the bottom end of the motor assembly penetrating into the interior of the top cover and fixedly connected to the top of an auxiliary structure, the auxiliary structure including a transmission rod, a filter plate, a sealing ring, a connecting rod, a spiral scraper, a bottom scraper, and a top scraper, the transmission rod being rotatably connected to the interior of the evaporator body.
[0007] In use, honey is poured into the evaporator body through the inlet and filtered through the filter plate, allowing the honey to drip gradually. After the honey has been poured out, the vacuum pump is turned on to create a near-vacuum inside the evaporator body, thereby gradually lowering the boiling point of water. Since the inner cavity of the evaporator body allows for the flow of heat transfer fluid, the heating wire is activated via the control panel, causing the heat transfer fluid to flow along the inner cavity of the evaporator body and rapidly raising the internal temperature to a certain value. This causes the water in the honey inside the evaporator body to evaporate quickly, thus completing the concentration and evaporation of the honey.
[0008] Preferably, the electric heating mechanism includes a heat insulation tank, a water inlet, a ceramic heat-conducting pipe, a heating wire, a spiral frame, a drain outlet, a filter pipe, a sealing cap, and a filter screen sleeve. The heat insulation tank is installed at one end of the heat insulation pipe. The top of the heat insulation tank is fixedly connected to the water inlet. The ceramic heat-conducting pipe is fixedly connected inside the heat insulation tank. The heating wire is installed inside the ceramic heat-conducting pipe. The outer wall of the ceramic heat-conducting pipe is fixedly connected to the spiral frame. The bottom of the heat insulation tank is fixedly connected to the drain outlet. The bottom of the drain outlet is equipped with a filter pipe. The top of the filter pipe is equipped with a sealing cap. The bottom of the sealing cap is equipped with a filter screen sleeve.
[0009] Preferably, the cross-sectional area of the outer diameter of the ceramic heat-conducting pipe is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the inner diameter of the heat-insulating tank, and the interior of the heat-insulating tank is connected to the interior of the heat-insulating pipe, so that the heat-conducting liquid can circulate.
[0010] Preferably, the interior of the filter tube is connected to the interior of the heat insulation pipe, and the bottom end of the sealing cap is threaded to the top end of the filter screen sleeve, thereby making the disassembly and assembly of the filter screen sleeve more convenient.
[0011] Preferably, a filter plate is sleeved on the upper outer side of the transmission rod, and sealing rings are installed at both ends of the filter plate. Connecting rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the transmission rod, and a spiral scraper is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting rod. Bottom scrapers are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of both sides of the transmission rod, and a top scraper is fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of the filter plate.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom end of the transmission rod is rotatable to the bottom end of the evaporator body, and the connecting rod is threaded on both sides of the transmission rod, so that the honey inside the evaporator body can be stirred and heated evenly.
[0013] Preferably, the transmission rod and the filter plate are in a rotating structure, and the cross-sectional area of the outer diameter of the filter plate is larger than the cross-sectional area of the inner diameter of the evaporator body, so that the filter plate can be stably supported.
[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: by rotating the transmission rod, the top scraper, spiral scraper, and bottom scraper scrape off the honey adsorbed on the filter plate, the inner wall of the evaporator body, and the bottom of the evaporator body, respectively, thus avoiding excessive residue. At the same time, by installing the heating wire on the outside of the evaporator body, the equipment maintenance is made more convenient. In addition, a filter tube is installed at the bottom of the insulation tank, so that the heat transfer liquid is filtered by the filter screen during the flow, thus avoiding excessive impurities in the heat transfer liquid from affecting heat conduction.
[0015] 1. When the drive rod rotates, the spiral scraper can scrape off the residue on the inner wall of the evaporator body, and the bottom scraper can scrape off the residue at the bottom. At the same time, the rotating top scraper can also scrape off and drip off the residual honey adsorbed by the filter plate after filtration.
[0016] 2. When the heating wire is energized, it generates heat and is heated to a certain temperature by the ceramic heat-conducting tube as the heat-conducting liquid flows along the spiral frame. Since the heating wire is installed outside the device, it is easier to disassemble and maintain. A filter screen is installed inside the filter tube to filter the circulating heated heat-conducting liquid. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-6This utility model provides a honey concentration and evaporation device, including an evaporator body 1 and a top cover 5. A control panel 2 is fixedly connected to one end of the evaporator body 1. A discharge pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of one side of the evaporator body 1. An electromagnetic switch valve 4 is installed on one side of the discharge pipe 3. The top cover 5 is installed on the top of the evaporator body 1. A heat insulation pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the other side of the evaporator body 1. A feed inlet 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the top cover 5. A motor assembly 7 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the top of the top of the top cover 5. A vacuum pump 8 is fixedly connected to the other side of the top of the top cover 5. An electric heating mechanism 10 is installed at one end of the heat insulation pipe 9. The electric heating mechanism 10 includes a heat insulation tank 1001, a water inlet 1002, a ceramic heat-conducting pipe 1003, a heating wire 1004, a spiral frame 1005, a drain outlet 1006, a filter pipe 1007, a sealing cover 1008, and a filter screen sleeve 1009. The heat insulation tank 1001 is installed on the heat insulation pipe 9. At one end of the heat pipe 9, a water inlet 1002 is fixedly connected to the top of the heat insulation tank 1001. A ceramic heat-conducting pipe 1003 is fixedly connected inside the heat insulation tank 1001. An electric heating wire 1004 is installed inside the ceramic heat-conducting pipe 1003. A spiral frame 1005 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the ceramic heat-conducting pipe 1003. A drain outlet 1006 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the heat insulation tank 1001. A filter pipe 1007 is installed at the bottom of the drain outlet 1006. A sealing cap 1008 is installed at the top of the filter pipe 1007. A filter screen sleeve 1009 is installed at the bottom of the sealing cap 1008. The cross-sectional area of the outer diameter of the ceramic heat-conducting pipe 1003 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the inner diameter of the heat insulation tank 1001. The interior of the heat insulation tank 1001 is connected to the interior of the heat insulation pipe 9. The interior of the filter pipe 1007 is connected to the interior of the heat insulation pipe 9. The bottom of the sealing cap 1008 and the top of the filter screen sleeve 1009 are connected by a threaded structure.
[0026] See attached document Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 When this device concentrates and evaporates honey, an electric heating element is often installed inside the device. However, since the electric heating element is installed inside the device, it is often inconvenient to disassemble, repair, or replace the equipment. Therefore, an insulation tank 1001 is set on the outside of the evaporator body 1. The heat transfer liquid circulating in the inner cavity of the jacket of the evaporator body 1 is injected into the interior of the insulation tank 1001 through the inlet 1002 via the insulation pipe 9. At this time, the heating wire 1004 is energized and heats up. When the heat transfer liquid flows along the spiral frame 1005, it is heated to a certain temperature by the ceramic heat transfer tube 1003. Since the heating wire 1004 is installed outside the device, it is easier to disassemble and repair. At the same time, in order to avoid the heat transfer liquid from producing impurities after long-term use, which would affect the heat conduction, a filter pipe 1007 is installed at the bottom of the drain outlet 1006, and a filter screen sleeve 1009 is installed inside the filter pipe 1007 to filter the circulating heated heat transfer liquid.

The transmission rod 1101 is rotatably connected to the interior of the evaporator body 1. The filter plate 1102 is sleeved on the upper outer side of the transmission rod 1101. Sealing rings 1103 are installed at both ends of the filter plate 1102.

[0028] See attached document Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 During the concentration and evaporation process of honey in this device, due to the high viscosity of honey, in order to avoid excessive adsorption and residue in the device after discharge, a spiral frame 1005 is fixed on both sides of the transmission rod 1101 by connecting rods 1104. When the transmission rod 1101 rotates, the spiral scraper 1105 can scrape off the residue on the inner wall of the evaporator body 1, and the bottom scraper 1106 can scrape off the residue at the bottom. At the same time, the rotating top scraper 1107 can also scrape off and drip off the residual honey adsorbed after filtration by the filter plate 1102, thereby greatly reducing the residue inside the device after use.
