Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of microwave technology, specifically relating to a novel microwave heating device. Background Technology
[0002] Microwave sterilization utilizes the energy characteristics of microwaves to sterilize objects. It is now widely used in various industries, such as water sterilization. By causing water molecules to vibrate rapidly, heat is generated. When the water temperature reaches above 70°C and is maintained for 2 minutes, common pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus can be inactivated. Microwave sterilization is commonly used in fish and aquaculture, primarily to sterilize the water in aquaculture ponds, thereby improving water quality and allowing fish to live in suitable water environments. Compared to traditional equipment and methods, its sterilization effect is more efficient and effective.
[0003] In practical applications, when sterilizing water in fish ponds, microwaves act on molecules, raising the water temperature during sterilization. Therefore, the sterilized water cannot be directly returned to the aquaculture pond because its temperature is too high or the temperature difference with the original water is too large (more than 1°C), which would affect fish development and, in severe cases, lead to fish death and losses. Therefore, it is necessary to control the water temperature after sterilization, that is, to cool the water that has risen in temperature after sterilization, ensuring that the temperature of the sterilized water does not exceed 1°C of the original water temperature. Currently, the cooling method involves passing the water through other containers and letting it stand at room temperature. However, this method not only requires a lot of time, but also cannot recover and reuse the heat emitted. Summary of the Invention

The hot water inlet is connected to the flow guiding component, and the heat absorption component is connected to the cold water inlet.
[0008] Preferably, the heat-absorbing assembly includes a metal tube located inside two cylinder walls, with both ends of the metal tube extending out of the two cylinder walls.
[0009] Preferably, the metal tube has an S-shaped bend structure.
[0010] Preferably, it further includes a quick-release assembly, the water outlet of which is connected to the water inlet of the heat absorption assembly, and the quick-release assembly is provided with a filter section, which is detachably connected to the quick-release assembly.

The outlet and the water guide pipe are aligned, and an installation groove is provided between the outlet and the water guide pipe.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following advantages: This application provides a novel microwave heating device. Cold water (low-temperature water) from an aquaculture tank is pumped out using a pump or other pumping device and delivered to a heat-absorbing component. The cold water flows from the heat-absorbing component into a heating component. The heating component is then activated to sterilize the cold water flowing through it, causing the resulting hot water (temperature higher than the lower-temperature water in the aquaculture tank) to flow into a guide component. Under the action of the guide component, the hot water is guided into an exchange component, filling it with hot water. At this point, the hot water is positioned around the heat-absorbing component, causing the heat from the hot water to be directed towards the lower-temperature heat-absorbing component. The system diffuses and conducts heat through the cold water, causing the temperature of the hot water to drop and the temperature of the cold water to rise. By utilizing the process of the cold water absorbing heat, the cooling rate of the hot water is accelerated. Finally, the cooled hot water flows out from the outlet of the exchange component and can flow back into the fish pond or other storage containers. After sterilizing the water in the aquaculture pond, the hot water at a higher temperature can dissipate heat more quickly, improving heat dissipation efficiency. Furthermore, by absorbing the heat dissipated by the original, lower-temperature cold water, the temperature of the cold water itself is raised. This reduces the energy consumption of the heating component and saves costs when sterilizing the water after the temperature has increased. Attached Figure Description

The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of this application. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 In one specific embodiment of this application, A novel microwave heating device includes: The heat exchange component 100 is used for hot water to flow through and dissipate heat. A flow guiding component 200, the water outlet of which is connected to the water inlet of the exchange component 100, is capable of guiding hot water into the exchange component 100. A heating component 300, the water outlet of which is connected to the water inlet of the flow guiding component 200, is used to heat cold water; A heat-absorbing component 400 is provided, with its outlet end connected to the inlet end of the heating component 300 and located within the exchange component 100. The inlet end of the heat-absorbing component 400 extends out of the exchange component 100 and can be supplied with cold water, allowing the cold water to absorb the heat emitted by the hot water in the exchange component 100.
[0022] The heat exchange component 100 can be a container capable of conducting heat, or a pipe through which hot water flows, or a device through which hot water flows and dissipates heat; the flow guiding component 200 can be a pipeline or device that guides the fluid; the heating component 300 can be a microwave heating device, or other device capable of sterilizing or heating water; and the heat absorption component 400 can be a pipe through which hot water flows, or a device through which cold water flows and absorbs heat.
[0023] During use, cold water (lower temperature water) in the aquaculture tank is pumped out using a pump or other pumping device and transported to the heat absorption component 400. The cold water flows from the heat absorption component 400 into the heating component 300. Then, the heating component 300 is turned on to sterilize and heat the cold water flowing through it, causing the generated hot water (higher temperature than the lower temperature water in the aquaculture tank) to flow into the guide component 200. Under the action of the guide component 200, the hot water is guided into the exchange component 100, filling the exchange component 100. At this time, the hot water will be located around the heat absorption component 400, allowing the heat of the hot water to diffuse and conduct to the cold water in the lower temperature heat absorption component 400, thereby lowering the temperature of the hot water and raising the temperature of the cold water. By utilizing the process of cold water absorbing heat, the cooling rate of the hot water is accelerated. Finally, the cooled hot water flows out from the outlet of the exchange component 100 and can flow back into the aquaculture tank or other storage container. By employing the above method, after sterilizing the water in the aquaculture tank, the hotter water can dissipate heat more quickly, improving heat dissipation efficiency. Furthermore, the original, cooler water absorbs the dissipated heat, raising its own temperature. This reduces the energy consumption of the heating element 300 during sterilization, saving costs. For example, if the cold water temperature is 26℃ and the heating element 300 requires 2 minutes to sterilize it, the water temperature must be raised to the sterilization temperature before 2 minutes, and then maintained for 2 minutes to complete the sterilization effect. If the cold water temperature rises from 26℃ to 70℃ in 1 minute and is maintained for 2 minutes, the temperature increases by 44℃. Therefore, when the sterilized water is returned to the aquaculture tank, its temperature must not exceed 27℃. After cooling and sterilization, the 70°C water enters the heat exchange component 100 and comes into contact with the heat absorption component 400. It transfers heat to the 26°C cold water in the heat absorption component 400, causing the 26°C cold water to absorb heat and rise in temperature, while the 70°C water dissipates heat and decreases in temperature. Assuming the 26°C cold water that absorbed heat rises to 45°C, the corresponding 70°C water temperature drops to 51°C, accelerating the cooling effect. The 51°C water is then led out of the heat exchange component 100 for further cooling to 27°C before being returned to the aquaculture tank. When the 45°C water enters the heating component 300 for sterilization, the time required for the heating component 300 to heat the 45°C cold water to 70°C will be reduced, for example, to 0.5 minutes. That is, the heating component 300 only needs 0.5 minutes to raise the temperature of the 45°C cold water to 70°C. Therefore, with the power of the heating component 300 remaining constant, the working time and energy consumption of the heating component 300 are reduced. It enables the recovery and utilization of heat, saving costs.
[0024] See Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment: the exchange component 100 includes two cylindrical walls 101, with an inlet 102 and an outlet 103 respectively provided on the two cylindrical walls 101. The two cylindrical walls 101 are interlocked to form a cavity. The heat absorption component 400 is located in the cavity and extends out from the two cylindrical walls 101. One end of the flow guiding component 200 is connected to the outlet 103 and the other end is connected to the heating component 300. After the two cylinder walls 101 are interlocked, they are connected by a detachable connector, so that the cavity formed by the interlocking of the two cylinder walls 101 covers the heat absorption component 400. Taking the pipe as an example, the heat absorption component 400 has a semi-circular hole 104 at the end of the cylinder wall 101. After the two cylinder walls 101 are interlocked, the two semi-circular holes 104 on the same side can form a circular hole for the pipe to pass through, and the two can be sealed by a sealing element. The sealing element can be a rubber gasket or other sealing facilities that can prevent water leakage. When cold water flows through the heat absorption component 400 into the heating component 300 for sterilization or heating, the resulting hot water flows from the guide component 200 through the inlet 102 into the two cylinder walls 101. The hot water fills the cavity formed by the two cylinder walls 101 and comes into contact with the heat absorption component 400, diffusing heat onto it. The cold water in the heat absorption component 400 absorbs the heat, raising its own temperature, while the hot water cools down after its heat is absorbed. Finally, the hot water flows out through the outlet 103 to other pools or storage containers.
[0025] By using the above method, the heat dissipated by the hot water can be recovered and reused by using the original cold water when the hot water is cooled, thereby improving the utilization rate and reducing the energy consumption of the heating element 300, thus saving costs.
[0026] See Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment: the heating component 300 includes a microwave heater 301, with a cold water inlet 302 and a hot water inlet 303 respectively provided on both sides of the microwave heater 301. The hot water inlet 303 is connected to the flow guiding component 200, and the heat absorption component 400 is connected to the cold water inlet 302.
[0027] Cold water flowing through the heat absorption component 400 enters the microwave heater 301 through the cold water inlet 302. The microwave heater 301 is then activated to heat the cold water inside using microwaves. During this process, microwaves are used to sterilize the water within a certain range. The hot water formed after the heating process flows out through the hot water inlet 303 and enters the flow guiding component 200 to be guided to the two cylinder walls 101 for cooling.
[0028] See Figure 3In a preferred embodiment, the heat-absorbing component 400 includes a metal tube located within two cylindrical walls 101, with both ends of the metal tube extending out of the two cylindrical walls 101. The metal tube can be made of a metal material with good thermal conductivity, such as copper alloy or aluminum alloy, which can lower the temperature of the tube wall when cold water passes through it. When hot water enters the two cylindrical walls 101, the heat of the hot water is transferred to the tube wall, and then the heat is diffused into the cold water through the tube wall. This allows for timely recovery and transfer of heat to the cold water when the hot water cools down.
[0029] Furthermore, the metal pipe has an S-shaped bend structure, which increases the overall length and surface area of the metal pipe in the two cylinder walls 101. This increases the contact area between the metal pipe and the hot water, thereby prolonging the flow time of the cold water in the two cylinder walls 101, increasing the heat absorption time, and effectively cooling the hot water and heating the cold water.
[0030] In practical applications, when water from aquaculture ponds is directly extracted for sterilization and heating, the presence of large particulate impurities (such as fish feces and uneaten feed) in the water can negatively impact the effectiveness of microwaves. Furthermore, prolonged use can cause these large particles to adhere to the interior of the device, reducing internal space and water flow, ultimately decreasing the overall capacity of the device. Therefore, this application also includes a quick-release assembly 500, the water outlet of which is connected to the water inlet of the heat absorption assembly 400, and the quick-release assembly 500 is provided with a filter section 520, which is detachably connected to the quick-release assembly 500.
[0031] The quick-release assembly 500 can be a frame that can be installed at the water inlet of the heat absorption assembly 400, or a device that can carry the filter unit 520; the filter unit 520 can be a filter element that can filter water and be quickly installed on the quick-release assembly 500, or a device that can filter water. See Figures 5 to 10 In actual use, the quick-release component 500 is installed at the water inlet of the heat absorption component 400, and then the filter 520 is installed on the quick-release component 500. When the water in the aquaculture pond is transported, it first flows through the quick-release component 500 and the filter 520. The filter 520 filters the water, and the filtered water flows into the heat absorption component 400. The above method can filter out and block a large number of large particulate impurities in the water, preventing them from entering the heat absorption component 400, the flow guiding component 200 and the exchange component 100 and attaching inside to affect the water flow. It also prevents large particulate impurities from affecting the microwave effect in the heating component 300.
[0032] In practical use, with prolonged use, the filter unit 520 will filter out more and more impurities. This accumulation of impurities will affect water flow, so cleaning or replacement of the filter unit 520 is necessary. However, when replacing or cleaning the filter unit 520, it needs to be removed from the quick-release assembly 500. The time spent with the filter unit 520 removed from the quick-release assembly 500 will cause the entire process to stop, wasting time. Therefore, in this application, the quick-release assembly 500 is provided with a quick-change part 510, which is rotatably connected to the quick-release assembly 500 and is used to carry multiple filter parts 520.
[0033] The quick-change unit 510 can be a turntable, a frame, or a device that carries multiple filter units 520. It is rotatably connected to the quick-release assembly 500, which can bring one filter unit 520 into the water flow range. After a long period of use, by rotating the quick-change unit 510, another filter unit 520 can be brought into the water flow range, while the previously used filter unit 520 is moved out of the water flow range. The used filter unit 520 can then be removed for replacement or cleaning, thus avoiding the entire device from stopping after the filter unit 520 is removed, saving time.
[0034] See Figure 7 In a preferred embodiment: the quick-release assembly 500 includes an outlet 503 connected to the water inlet of the heat absorption assembly 400, and a water guide pipe 501 disposed on the outlet 503. The outlet 503 and the water guide pipe 501 are aligned, and an installation groove 502 is provided between the outlet 503 and the water guide pipe 501. The quick-change part 510 is rotatably connected to the installation groove 502, which can drive the filter part 520 to align with the outlet 503 and the water guide pipe 501.
[0035] The outlet 503 is detachably connected to the water inlet of the heat absorption component 400, and the water guide pipe 501 is connected to the water supply pipe. At this time, the water guide pipe 501 is aligned with the water inlet of the heat absorption component 400, which drives the quick-change part 510 to rotate, causing one of the filter parts 520 carried on the quick-change part 510 to move between the water guide pipe 501 and the outlet 503. At this time, when water flows from the water guide pipe 501 to the outlet 503, it will pass through the filter part 520, and the filter part 520 will filter the water.
[0036] See Figures 5 to 10In a preferred embodiment: the filter section 520 includes a filter cartridge 521 detachably connected to the quick-change section 510, a filter screen 523 is provided inside the filter cartridge 521, a purification filler is provided between the filter screen 523 and the filter cartridge 521, and a sealing ring 522 is provided at the end of the filter cartridge 521 to seal the gap between the end of the filter cartridge 521 and the water guide pipe 501.
[0037] The filter cartridge 521 is detachably connected to the quick-change part 510. When the quick-change part 510 moves the filter cartridge 521 to align with the water guide pipe 501, the sealing ring 522 between the end of the water guide pipe 501 and the end of the filter cartridge 521 is squeezed and undergoes elastic deformation to complete the seal. This allows water to flow into the filter cartridge 521, where large particles are blocked by the filter screen 523. The filter media adsorbs other fine impurities and substances in the water, thus completing the filtration and purification of the water. This ensures that the treated water is returned to the aquaculture pond with improved water quality.
[0038] Additionally, the purification filler includes filter cotton 524, activated carbon 525, bio-cotton 526, and maifanite 527. Filter cotton 524 can intercept large particulate impurities in the water (such as fish feces and uneaten food), activated carbon 525 adsorbs odors, pigments, and pesticide residues in the water, and adjusts the pH of the water, bio-cotton 526 cultivates nitrifying bacteria to decompose harmful substances such as ammonia nitrogen, and maifanite 527 releases trace elements to promote fish growth. Through the above methods, the water quality is adjusted to be more suitable for fish growth.
[0039] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
