Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of brewing processing technology, and in particular to a brewing device. Background Technology

[0002] Brewing is the process by which yeast breaks down sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide under anaerobic conditions. Brewing equipment includes fermentation tanks and a cooking boiler. The materials for fermentation are placed in the fermentation tanks, and after fermentation, the materials are transferred to the cooking boiler for cooking and brewing, thus evaporating and liquefying the alcohol from the materials. In the cooking process, the cooking boiler heats water to produce steam, which is then used for cooking and brewing. Temperature control is particularly important during the brewing process.

[0003] In related technologies, the temperature of a cooking boiler is maintained by wrapping it with insulation material, such as rock wool.

[0004] However, since rock wool is directly exposed to the air and is usually a porous material, it easily absorbs water vapor after a period of use, causing the rock wool to detach from the cooking boiler. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a brewing device to solve the problem in the prior art where rock wool material is directly exposed to the air and is usually a porous material, which easily absorbs water vapor after a period of use, causing the rock wool material to detach from the cooking boiler.

[0006] This application provides a brewing device, including: a boiler; and an insulation component, the insulation component including a first insulation layer and a protective layer, the first insulation layer being wrapped around the outer surface of the boiler and used to insulate the boiler, and the protective layer being wrapped around the outer surface of the first insulation layer and used to support the first insulation layer and isolate external water molecules.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the protective layer is one of a stainless steel layer, a PVC layer, or a fiberglass layer.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the first insulation layer is a porous structure layer, and the closed-cell rate of the first insulation layer is greater than or equal to 95% and less than 100%.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the first insulation layer is a nanomaterial layer.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the thickness of the first insulation layer is greater than or equal to 10 mm and less than or equal to 20 mm.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the boiler is bonded to the first insulation layer, and the protective layer is bonded to the first insulation layer.

[0012] In one possible implementation, a hot water tank is also included, which is connected to the boiler and is used to receive and store excess hot water from the boiler. The outer surface of the hot water tank is covered with the insulation component.

[0013] In one possible implementation, the first insulation layer is bonded to both the boiler and the hot water tank, and the protective layer is bonded to the first insulation layer.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the system further includes a steam pipe connected to the boiler, which is used to transport steam generated by the boiler to a cooking pot for distillation and brewing. The insulation component also includes a second insulation layer that covers the steam pipe. The protective layer is fixedly connected to the outside of the second insulation layer, which is used to maintain the temperature of the steam pipe.

[0015] In one possible implementation, when the diameter of the steam pipe is less than 100 mm, the thickness of the second insulation layer is greater than or equal to 75 mm and less than or equal to 85 mm; when the diameter of the steam pipe is greater than 100 mm, the thickness of the second insulation layer is greater than or equal to 95 mm and less than or equal to 105 mm.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the second insulation layer is an aluminum silicate board.

[0017] The brewing equipment provided in this application embodiment effectively blocks water molecules in the outside air from entering the first insulation layer by setting the protective layer covering the outside of the first insulation layer to a dense structure, thereby improving the hydrophobic performance of the insulation component and preventing the first insulation layer from separating from the boiler due to water absorption. Therefore, it ensures that the insulation component can block the heat inside the boiler from being transferred to the outside, thus enhancing the insulation effect. Attached Figure Description

[0034] As shown in the background section, in related technologies, the temperature of a cooking boiler is ensured by wrapping the exterior with insulation materials, such as rock wool.

[0035] However, since rock wool is directly exposed to the air and is usually a porous material, it easily absorbs water vapor after a period of use, causing the rock wool to detach from the cooking boiler.

[0036] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a brewing device, comprising: a boiler and an insulation component; wherein the insulation component includes a first insulation layer and a protective layer, the first insulation layer being wrapped around the outer surface of the boiler for heat preservation, and the protective layer being wrapped around the outer surface of the first insulation layer for supporting the first insulation layer and isolating external water molecules, effectively preventing water molecules in the outside air from penetrating into the first insulation layer, improving the hydrophobic performance of the insulation component, preventing the first insulation layer from separating from the boiler due to water absorption, and blocking the transfer of heat from inside the boiler to the outside, thereby enhancing the heat preservation effect and avoiding energy waste.

[0037] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] This application provides a brewing apparatus, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes:

[0039] Boiler 100;

[0040] The insulation component 200 includes a first insulation layer 210 and a protective layer 220. The first insulation layer 210 is wrapped around the outer surface of the boiler 100 and is used to insulate the boiler 100. The protective layer 220 is wrapped around the outer surface of the first insulation layer 210 and is used to support the first insulation layer 210 and isolate external water molecules.

[0041] Understandably, in the brewing process, boiler 100 is typically used to heat liquid to generate steam, which is then passed into a cooking pot 500 (described below) for distillation. Distillation produces alcoholic vapor, which condenses to form liquid alcohol. During this process, boiler 100 requires high-temperature heating to ensure steam generation. Therefore, to ensure sufficient heat supply for heating the liquid and reduce heat loss, boiler 100 needs to be insulated. However, conventional rock wool insulation is directly applied to the surface of boiler 100, meaning the rock wool is in direct contact with the outside air. This makes it prone to absorbing moisture and detaching from boiler 100, losing its insulation effect and increasing heat loss from inside boiler 100. Therefore, this application uses a first insulation layer 210 wrapped around the boiler 100 to insulate the boiler 100, and at the same time covers the outside of the first insulation layer 210 with a protective layer 220. The protective layer 220 can support the first insulation layer 210. By utilizing the support and waterproof characteristics of the protective layer 220, water molecules in the outside air are prevented from penetrating into the first insulation layer 210, thus preventing the first insulation layer 210 from detaching from the boiler 100 and ensuring that the insulation component 200 can be completely attached to the boiler 100.

[0042] Specifically, by covering the outside of the first insulation layer 210 with a protective layer 220, the protective layer 220 effectively blocks water molecules in the outside air from penetrating into the first insulation layer 210, thereby improving the hydrophobic performance of the insulation component 200. Furthermore, the protective layer 220 can support the first insulation layer 210, further preventing the first insulation layer 210 from separating from the boiler 100 due to water absorption. Therefore, it is ensured that the insulation component 200 can block the transfer of heat from inside the boiler 100 to the outside, enhancing the insulation effect and avoiding energy waste.

[0043] In one possible implementation, the protective layer 220 can be made of stainless steel, PVC, or fiberglass. It is understood that the protective layer 220 can be made of stainless steel, which can prevent water molecules in the outside air from contacting the first insulation layer 210, thus preventing the first insulation layer 210 from separating from the outer surface of the boiler 100 due to water absorption, thereby ensuring the insulation effect of the insulation component 200. Furthermore, the protective layer 220 is made of stainless steel, which is pressure-bearing and resistant to scratches and deformation from being stepped on, thus providing good protection and support for the first insulation layer 210 and providing good protection for the boiler 100.

[0044] Of course, the protective layer 220 can also be a PVC layer or a fiberglass layer, without specific restrictions, as long as it can support the first insulation layer 210 and prevent water molecules from penetrating into the first insulation layer 210.

[0045] The protective layer 220 is completely bonded to the first insulation layer 210, meaning there is no gap between the protective layer 220 and the first insulation layer 210, thus preventing external air and water molecules from coming into contact with the first insulation layer 210.

[0046] In one possible implementation, the first insulation layer 210 is a porous structure layer, and the closed-cell rate of the first insulation layer 210 is greater than or equal to 95% and less than 100%. It is understood that a closed-cell rate of 95% or less than 100% means that most of the pores in the first insulation layer 210 are closed pores and not connected to the outside. This design makes it difficult for water molecules splashed or seeping into the surrounding area of ​​the first insulation layer 210 to penetrate into the pores of the first insulation layer 210, improving the hydrophobic properties of the first insulation layer 210 and preventing it from absorbing water and separating from the boiler 100, thus ensuring the insulation effect on the boiler 100.

[0047] Furthermore, the first insulation layer 210 can be a nanomaterial layer. With this configuration, the first insulation layer 210 can improve the heat insulation function, prevent heat loss, and ensure the stability of the internal heat of the boiler 100 while preventing the internal heat of the boiler 100 from affecting the temperature of the outer surface of the boiler 100, thus preventing workers from being burned by accidentally touching the surface of the boiler 100 and reducing the frequency of workplace accidents.

[0048] Specifically, according to on-site infrared thermography, when using single-layer rock wool as insulation, the highest temperature at the front end of the boiler 100 was 148.5℃, the highest temperature at the rear end was 130.5℃, and the highest temperature on the side was 106.5℃. This means that the outer surface temperature of the boiler 100 was all above 100℃, resulting in significant heat energy waste and posing a safety hazard. However, after using the insulation component 200 of this application to insulate the boiler 100, the highest temperature at the front end was 44.8℃, the highest temperature at the rear end was 43.3℃, ​​and the average outer surface temperature of the boiler 100 was below 45℃. This effectively improved the insulation effect, prevented heat loss, reduced the outer surface temperature of the boiler, and improved the safety factor for workers.

[0049] Similarly, the outer surface temperature of the hot water tank 400 (described below) was 76.3°C before the use of the insulation component 200. After insulation was performed using the insulation component 200 of this application, the outer surface temperature was around 40.7°C, which effectively enhanced the insulation effect.

[0050] In one possible implementation, the thickness of the first insulation layer 210 is greater than or equal to 10 mm and less than or equal to 20 mm.

[0051] Specifically, the front of the boiler 100 is the main heating zone, where heat is concentrated. Therefore, a first insulation layer 210 with a thickness of 20 mm can be used to enhance the insulation performance of the boiler 100 and prevent heat loss. The top, bottom, or other parts of the boiler 100 can use a first insulation layer 210 with a thickness of 10 mm, depending on the actual situation. Of course, the thickness of the first insulation layer 210 can also be set to 10 mm, and the number of overlapping layers of the first insulation layer 210 can be increased or decreased according to the heat concentration of the boiler 100 to ensure the insulation effect.

[0052] In one possible implementation, the boiler 100 is bonded to the first insulation layer 210, and the protective layer 220 is bonded to the first insulation layer 210.

[0053] It is understandable that the boiler 100 and the first insulation layer 210 can be connected by a high-temperature adhesive. The high-temperature adhesive can cure at a high temperature and maintain stable adhesion for a long time, thereby enhancing the connection strength between the first insulation layer 210 and the boiler 100 and preventing the first insulation layer 210 from peeling off from the boiler 100.

[0054] Furthermore, the protective layer 220 and the first insulation layer 210 can also be connected by a high-temperature adhesive. After bonding, they can be fixed by rivets or other connectors to further enhance the connection strength and prevent gaps from appearing between the protective layer 220 and the first insulation layer 210, thereby effectively preventing water molecules from entering.

[0055] In one possible implementation, a hot water tank 400 is also included. The hot water tank 400 is connected to the boiler 100 and is used to receive and store excess hot water in the boiler 100. The outer surface of the hot water tank 400 is covered with an insulation component 200.

[0056] It is understandable that the hot water tank 400 is connected to the boiler 100, and the liquid heated in the boiler 100 can be transferred to the hot water tank 400 for storage and later use. Therefore, to prevent the liquid stored in the hot water tank 400 from losing temperature and becoming cold, the same insulation component 200 can be wrapped around the outer surface of the hot water tank 400 to insulate it. The hot water tank 400 and the first insulation layer 210 can also be connected by the high-temperature adhesive to prevent the first insulation layer 210 from peeling off from the hot water tank 400.

[0057] Furthermore, such as Figure 2As shown, it also includes a steam pipe 300, which is connected to the boiler 100. The steam pipe 300 is used to transport the steam generated by the boiler 100 to the cooking pot 500 for distillation and brewing. The insulation component 200 also includes a second insulation layer 230, which covers the steam pipe 300. A protective layer 220 is fixedly connected to the outside of the second insulation layer 230. The second insulation layer 230 is used to maintain the temperature of the steam pipe 300.

[0058] It is understandable that the boiler 100 is connected to the steam pipe 300 so that the steam generated by the boiler 100 is transported to the cooking pot 500 for distillation and brewing. In order to prevent the steam from losing heat and the temperature from dropping during the process of passing through the steam pipe 300, a second insulation layer 230 can be wrapped around the outside of the steam pipe 300 to keep the steam pipe 300 warm and maintain the temperature inside the steam pipe 300.

[0059] Furthermore, referring to Figure 3 As shown, in order to prevent the second insulation layer 230 from separating from the steam pipe 300 due to water absorption, a protective layer 220 can be bonded to the outside of the second insulation layer 230. The protective layer 220 can block water molecules from entering the second insulation layer 230 and improve the insulation effect.

[0060] Furthermore, when the diameter of the steam pipe 300 is less than 100 mm, the thickness of the second insulation layer 230 is greater than or equal to 75 mm and less than or equal to 85 mm; when the diameter of the steam pipe 300 is greater than 100 mm, the thickness of the second insulation layer 230 is greater than or equal to 95 mm and less than or equal to 105 mm.

[0061] Understandably, the heat stored inside the steam pipe 300 varies depending on its diameter. Therefore, for steam pipes 300 with a diameter less than 100 mm, a second insulation layer 230 with a thickness greater than or equal to 75 mm and less than or equal to 85 mm can be selected; for steam pipes 300 with a diameter greater than 100 mm, a second insulation layer 230 with a thickness greater than or equal to 95 mm and less than or equal to 105 mm can be selected to improve the insulation effect and prevent the heat inside the steam pipe 300 from dissipating to the outer surface, thereby preventing the outer surface temperature of the steam pipe 300 from becoming too high and causing burns to workers, thus improving the safety factor.

[0062] In one possible implementation, the second insulation layer 230 can be an aluminum silicate board. It is understood that the steam pipe 300 is not a straight pipe and has many bends; therefore, the second insulation layer 230 can be made of aluminum silicate board, which has good toughness, is easy to bend, and is easy to cut and process, making its application on the steam pipe 300 more convenient. At the same time, it has a better insulation effect compared to rock wool insulation. Of course, in other implementations, the second insulation layer 230 can also be a nanomaterial layer; there are no specific limitations, as long as it can completely cover the steam pipe 300 and achieve the insulation effect.

[0063] Finally, it should be noted that other embodiments of this application will readily conceive of by those skilled in the art upon consideration of the specification and practice of the application disclosed herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of this application that follow the general principles of this application and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein, and is not limited to the precise structures described above and shown in the accompanying drawings, and various modifications and alterations may be made without departing from its scope.
