Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of royal jelly preparation, and in particular to an ultraviolet sterilization device for royal jelly preparation. Background Technology
[0002] Royal jelly, also known as bee milk, is a secretion from the pharyngeal glands of young worker bees in the hive used to raise larvae. It serves as food for larvae destined to become queen bees and is the queen bee's lifelong food. During the refining and extraction of royal jelly, the collected royal jelly needs to be sterilized. Therefore, in the processes of dilution, filtration, and concentration, sterilization should be performed at appropriate times. Currently, ultraviolet (UV) sterilization is commonly used. However, UV sterilization has limitations. For example, the sterilization range of UV light is limited, while the thickness of royal jelly is usually greater than the effective sterilization range of UV light. Once the thickness exceeds the effective sterilization range, the sterilization effect is significantly reduced.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN214343561U, published on October 8, 2021, discloses a royal jelly sterilization device. The device includes a housing, a bevel gear assembly disposed within the housing, a drive shaft, a drive shaft sleeve, and an impeller. The drive shaft sleeve is fixed to the housing. The bevel gear assembly includes a first bevel gear fixed to the drive shaft and a second and third bevel gear meshing with the first bevel gear. Gear shafts are respectively fixed to the second and third bevel gears. The impeller includes a base plate, a mounting sleeve located on one side of the base plate, and multiple blades located on the other side of the base plate. The mounting sleeve is mounted on the gear shaft. An ultraviolet lamp assembly is also disposed at the axial position of the base plate, with multiple blades evenly distributed on the circumferential outer side of the ultraviolet lamp assembly. The ultraviolet lamp assembly includes a transparent cover and an ultraviolet lamp and a battery located within the transparent cover. A drawback of this invention is that while the device sterilizes royal jelly during the turning process, the thickness of the royal jelly makes it difficult to achieve a comprehensive sterilization effect. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention aims to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies in achieving comprehensive sterilization of thick royal jelly, and provides an ultraviolet sterilization device for royal jelly preparation that can sterilize royal jelly while reducing its thickness by diverting the liquid.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: An ultraviolet sterilization device for preparing royal jelly, comprising: Diversion bucket; A sterilization chamber, wherein the lower end of the sterilization chamber is equipped with a diversion hopper; A storage tank, wherein the storage tank is positioned below and communicates with the diversion hopper; A rotary sterilization assembly, wherein the rotary sterilization assembly is installed inside the storage tank; A cooling assembly, which is installed inside the storage tank.
[0006] Royal jelly is added to the diversion hopper. After passing through the hopper, the royal jelly is reduced in thickness and flows out from the bottom. While the royal jelly is being reduced in thickness at the bottom of the diversion hopper, a sterilization box installed at the bottom of the diversion hopper sterilizes the royal jelly. Then, the royal jelly flows into the storage tank from the bottom of the diversion hopper. The rotary sterilization component inside the storage tube continuously sterilizes the royal jelly, ensuring that it is not contaminated in the storage tank and also performing comprehensive sterilization to reduce bacterial residue. Because the rotary sterilization component is installed inside the storage tank for a long time, it can easily cause the temperature of the royal jelly to rise, thus affecting its activity. Therefore, a cooling component is installed inside the storage tube to reduce the temperature of the royal jelly in the storage tank, achieving the purpose of sterilization while the royal jelly is being reduced in thickness through diversion.
[0007] Preferably, the diversion hopper includes a storage pipe, a guide pipe, and a discharge pipe. The guide pipe has a trapezoidal cross-sectional shape, with one end of its long side connected to the storage pipe and the other end connected to the discharge pipe. The lower end of the discharge pipe passes through the upper end of the storage tank and is placed inside the storage tank. The square storage pipe receives the royal jelly, which then enters the guide pipe. The trapezoidal guide pipe continues to guide the royal jelly downwards, thereby reducing the thickness of the royal jelly until it enters the discharge pipe. The thickness of the discharge pipe matches the thickness of the ultraviolet sterilization process. After passing through the discharge pipe, the royal jelly enters the storage tank for storage. This design can change the flow thickness of the royal jelly.
[0008] Preferably, sterilization holes are provided on both sides of the feeding pipe, and sterilization boxes are installed on both sides of the feeding pipe, with the sterilization boxes corresponding to the sterilization holes. Sterilization holes are installed on both sides of the feeding pipe, and sterilization boxes are installed at the sterilization holes. Ultraviolet lamps are installed inside the sterilization boxes. Because the sterilization boxes correspond to the sterilization holes, the sterilization boxes release ultraviolet light through the ultraviolet lamps towards the feeding pipe to sterilize the royal jelly flowing through it. Installing sterilization boxes on both sides of the feeding pipe improves the sterilization effect. This design can effectively sterilize royal jelly.
[0009] Preferably, the rotary sterilization assembly includes a rotating shaft, a motor, and ultraviolet lamps. The upper end of the rotating shaft passes through the storage tank and is placed inside the tank. Mounting plates are installed at both ends of the rotating shaft inside the storage tank. Several ultraviolet lamps are evenly mounted on the mounting plates. A gear is installed at the lower end of the rotating shaft. The motor is mounted on the storage tank, and a gear is installed at the motor end of the motor. Gears 1 and 2 mesh. The rotary sterilization assembly is installed inside the storage tank. Royal jelly flowing from the feed pipe enters the storage tank for storage. At this time, motor 1, installed on the outside of the storage tank, is activated, driving gear 2 to rotate. The meshing of gears 1 and 2 drives the rotating shaft to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft causes the mounting plates to rotate together inside the storage tank. The rotation of the mounting plates drives the ultraviolet lamps mounted on the mounting plates. During the rotation of the ultraviolet lamps around the rotating shaft, the storage tank is thoroughly sterilized. To ensure the stability of the ultraviolet lamps, both ends of the ultraviolet lamps are connected to the mounting plates. This design allows for thorough sterilization of the storage tank.
[0010] Preferably, the cooling assembly includes a cooling pipe with a threaded cross-sectional shape. Both ends of the cooling pipe penetrate the storage tank and are positioned outside the tank. To prevent the temperature inside the storage tank from becoming too high and affecting the royal jelly, a threaded cooling pipe is installed inside the storage tank. The inlet and outlet ends of the cooling pipe both penetrate the storage tank and are positioned outside. Cooling water is injected through one end of the cooling pipe, and the spiral flow of the cooling water carries away the heat inside the storage tank. The spiral shape of the cooling pipe increases the residence time of the cooling water inside the storage tank, thus better removing the heat. The cooling water then flows out from the other end of the cooling pipe. This design reduces the temperature inside the storage tank.
[0011] Preferably, a discharge pipe is installed on the bottom surface of the storage tank, and the discharge pipe is connected to the storage tank. A valve is installed on the discharge pipe. The discharge pipe installed on the bottom surface of the storage tank is used to release the sterilized royal jelly. The release process of the royal jelly can be controlled by the valve. This design allows for the release of royal jelly.
[0012] Preferably, the storage tank is equipped with an observation hole, and an observation plate is installed inside the observation hole, with the observation plate corresponding to the observation hole. The observation hole on the storage tank is sealed with a transparent observation plate, allowing observation of the state of the royal jelly inside the storage tank. This design facilitates the viewing of the interior of the storage tank.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: sterilization is performed when the royal jelly is diverted to reduce its thickness, which can change the flow thickness of the royal jelly, sterilize the royal jelly, sterilize the storage tank, reduce the temperature inside the storage tank, and release the royal jelly, making it easier for the inside of the storage tank to function.

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0017] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, an ultraviolet sterilization device for preparing royal jelly includes: Diversion bucket 1; Sterilization chamber 2, the lower end of the diversion hopper 1 is installed in sterilization chamber 2; Storage tank 3 is placed below and connected to diversion hopper 1; Rotary sterilization assembly 4 is installed inside storage tank 3; Cooling component 5 is installed inside storage tank 3.
[0018] like Figure 3 As shown, the diversion hopper 1 includes a storage pipe 11, a guide pipe 12, and a discharge pipe 13. The cross-sectional shape of the guide pipe 12 is trapezoidal. One end of the guide pipe 12 with its long side is connected to the storage pipe 11, and the other end of the guide pipe 12 with its short side is connected to the discharge pipe 13. The lower end of the discharge pipe 13 passes through the upper end of the storage tank 3 and is placed inside the storage tank 3.
[0019] Sterilization holes 14 are provided on both sides of the feeding pipe 13, and sterilization boxes 2 are installed on both sides of the feeding pipe 13, with the sterilization boxes 2 corresponding to the sterilization holes 14.
[0020] like Figure 5 As shown, the rotary sterilization assembly 4 includes a rotating shaft 41, a motor 42, and ultraviolet lamps 43. The upper end of the rotating shaft 41 passes through the storage tank 3 and is placed inside the storage tank 3. Mounting plates 44 are installed at both ends of the rotating shaft 41 inside the storage tank 3. Several ultraviolet lamps 43 are provided and are evenly installed on the mounting plates 44. A gear 45 is installed at the lower end of the rotating shaft 41. The motor 42 is installed on the storage tank 3. A gear 46 is installed at the motor end of the motor 42. The gear 45 meshes with the gear 46.
[0021] like Figure 6 As shown, the cooling assembly 5 includes a cooling pipe 51 with a threaded cross-section. Both ends of the cooling pipe 51 pass through the storage tank 3 and are placed outside the storage tank 3.
[0022] like Figure 4 As shown, a discharge pipe 33 is installed on the bottom surface of the storage tank 3. The discharge pipe 33 is connected to the storage tank 3, and a valve 34 is installed on the discharge pipe 33.
[0023] An observation hole 31 is installed on the storage tank 3, and an observation plate 32 is installed inside the observation hole 31, with the observation plate 32 corresponding to the observation hole 31.
[0024] When using this device to store royal jelly, add royal jelly to the diversion hopper 1. The royal jelly flows into the feed pipe 13 through the guide pipe 12. The thickness of the royal jelly in the feed pipe 13 is reduced, which facilitates the sterilization of the royal jelly. The royal jelly is sterilized through the sterilization boxes 2 on both sides.
[0025] After being sterilized in sterilization chamber 2, the royal jelly flows into storage tank 3. At this time, motor 42 is activated, driving the rotating shaft 41 to rotate through the meshing of gear 45 and gear 46. The rotating shaft 41 drives the mounting plate 44 and the ultraviolet lamp 43 mounted on the mounting plate 44 to rotate. The ultraviolet lamp 43 rotates inside storage tank 3, further sterilizing the royal jelly inside. During the sterilization process of the rotary sterilization component 4, the temperature inside storage tank 3 will rise. To prevent the temperature rise from affecting the activity of the royal jelly, cooling water is injected into one end of the cooling pipe 51. The cooling water circulates in the spiral cooling pipe 51 and is released from the other end. The flow of cooling water inside the storage tank will dissipate the heat, thus ensuring that the temperature of the storage tank does not become too high.
