Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of honey processing equipment, and in particular relates to a circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine. Background Technology
[0002] In honey processing, sterilization is a crucial step in ensuring product quality and extending shelf life. Pasteurization, a commonly used method for honey sterilization, requires precise temperature control (usually 50-65℃) for a specific time to achieve sterilization while maximizing the preservation of active nutrients in the honey.
[0003] A search revealed existing honey processing and sterilization equipment. For example, Chinese Patent (Authorization Announcement No.: CN220292973U) discloses an integrated honey processing and sterilization machine, which includes a base, a processing machine body, a water bath heating layer, motor-driven stirring blades, and a filtration system. This equipment heats the honey through the water bath heating layer and stirs it with the stirring blades, thereby achieving sterilization. While this equipment can achieve basic heating and stirring functions, it still has the following significant shortcomings: First, the uniformity of heating needs improvement. The equipment uses a fixed water bath heating layer combined with rotating stirring blades for heating and stirring. However, honey has a high viscosity and poor fluidity, and simple rotating stirring can easily create dead zones, especially on the walls and bottom of the jar, where honey tends to stagnate, leading to uneven heating. This can result in localized excessively high temperatures that damage the honey's nutrients, or localized insufficient temperatures that lead to incomplete sterilization.
[0004] Secondly, its functionality is relatively limited. The stirring power of this equipment comes from an independent motor, failing to achieve power synergy with other functional components, leaving room for improvement in energy utilization efficiency.
[0005] In view of this, this utility model proposes a circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine. Utility Model Content
[0006] This invention provides a circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine, which aims to solve the problems of poor heating uniformity and limited functionality of current honey processing equipment.
[0007] This utility model is implemented as follows: a circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine, comprising: Sedimentation chamber; A support frame that is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sedimentation chamber for supporting the sedimentation chamber; A processing barrel is fixed to the top of the sedimentation chamber. A partition is fixed to the inside of the processing barrel, which divides the inside of the processing barrel into a stirring and heating chamber and a transmission chamber. The stirring and heating assembly is slidably disposed inside the stirring and heating chamber; A water inlet assembly is disposed on one side of the stirring and heating assembly and is used to supply hot water to the inside of the stirring and heating assembly; A drainage component is provided on one side of the stirring and heating component to drain the hot water after heat exchange inside the stirring and heating component. The transmission mechanism is located inside the transmission cavity and connected to the water inlet assembly and the drain assembly. During the process of the water inlet assembly delivering hot water, it can drive the transmission mechanism, thereby enabling the stirring and heating assembly to perform reciprocating lifting and lowering motion through the water inlet assembly and the drain assembly.
[0008] Preferably, the stirring and heating assembly includes a lifting plate that is slidably sleeved inside the stirring and heating chamber. A plurality of guide plates of different lengths are symmetrically fixed to the inner side of the lifting plate. One end of each guide plate is fixed to the inner wall of the lifting plate, and the other end forms a gap with the inner wall of the lifting plate, thereby enabling the hot water entering the inner side of the lifting plate to flow in an S-shaped trajectory.
[0009] Preferably, each of the guide plates is fixed with a plurality of horn tubes, the upper and lower ends of the horn tubes extending out of the outer wall of the lifting plate, and the outer wall of the lifting plate at the upper end of the horn tube is provided with an inner concave surface.
[0010] Preferably, the water inlet assembly includes a water pump fixedly installed on the top of the processing barrel, the drain end of the water pump is connected to a hose, the other end of the hose is connected to a water inlet inner tube, and the water inlet inner tube is fixedly inserted through the top of the processing barrel.
[0011] Preferably, the water inlet assembly further includes an external water inlet pipe that slides through the interior of the partition, the internal water inlet pipe that slides into the interior of the external water inlet pipe, and the bottom end of the external water inlet pipe that is fixedly connected to the lifting plate.
[0012] Preferably, the drainage assembly includes an inner drainage pipe fixedly extending through the top of the processing barrel and an outer drainage pipe slidably extending through the interior of the partition, with the bottom end of the inner drainage pipe fixedly connected to the lifting plate.
[0013] Preferably, the transmission mechanism includes a shaft that rotatably passes through an L-shaped water intake pipe on the water pump, and one end of the shaft is fixedly connected to the center of the impeller disk inside the housing of the water inlet assembly, and the other end of the shaft is fixedly connected to a small bevel gear, which meshes with a large bevel gear.
[0014] Preferably, the transmission mechanism further includes a reciprocating screw rotatably connected to the top column and the top of the processing barrel. The reciprocating screw is coaxially fixed to the large bevel gear. A slider is sleeved on the outside of the reciprocating screw. A horizontal plate is fixedly connected to both sides of the slider. The two horizontal plates are respectively fixedly sleeved to the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe.
[0015] Preferably, a plurality of top posts that cooperate with the upper port of the horn tube are fixedly connected through the interior of the partition.
[0016] Preferably, a honey outlet pipe is provided at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber, a control valve is provided on the honey outlet pipe, an outer frame is fixed to the top of the support frame, and a pump body is installed inside the outer frame for drawing the material inside the stirring and heating chamber to the inside of the sedimentation chamber.
[0017] Compared with related technologies, the circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. High-efficiency heat energy utilization and dynamic uniform sterilization: This device uses a lifting plate with built-in guide plates and notches as the stirring and heating component, allowing the incoming hot water to flow in an "S-shaped" trajectory, extending the heat exchange path. Simultaneously, the power of the hot water pump drives the transmission mechanism (including impeller, shaft, bevel gear, and reciprocating screw), causing the entire lifting plate, along with the funnel tube on it, to reciprocate up and down in the honey liquid. This achieves a single source of power for heating and stirring, eliminating the need for a separate stirring motor. The reciprocating motion of the lifting plate and the repeated flow of honey through the funnel tube greatly promote the agitation and convection of the honey, effectively solving the problem of uneven heating caused by the viscosity of honey. This ensures that the honey can be uniformly and stably maintained at a pasteurization temperature of 50-65℃, effectively killing microorganisms while maximizing the protection of the honey's heat-sensitive nutrients, effectively reducing localized overheating or sterilization dead zones.
[0018] 2. Adaptive Unblocking and Continuous Stable Operation: Multiple top posts corresponding to the upper ports of the horn tubes are installed on the partition. When the transmission mechanism drives the lifting plate to a specific position, these top posts will precisely insert into the upper ports of the horn tubes. This design achieves intermittent mechanical unblocking of the horn tubes. During honey processing, viscous honey easily clogs pipes, affecting heat exchange efficiency and normal equipment operation. This structure can periodically and automatically break up any blockages or adhesions that may form, ensuring unobstructed heat flow channels and honey flow paths, thereby ensuring the continuity and stability of the entire sterilization process, reducing the need for manual maintenance, and improving production efficiency. In summary, this device, through ingenious mechanical linkage and structural design, achieves the integration and automation of heating, stirring, and unblocking during honey sterilization processing, effectively improving sterilization effect, energy utilization, and equipment operational reliability.

The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.
[0022] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0023] Example 1 A preferred embodiment of the circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine provided by this utility model is as follows: Figures 1 to 5The image shows a circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine, comprising: a sedimentation chamber 1; a support frame 2 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sedimentation chamber 1 for supporting the sedimentation chamber 1; a processing tank 3 fixedly connected to the top of the sedimentation chamber 1, with a partition 33 fixedly connected to the inner side of the processing tank 3, dividing the inner side of the processing tank 3 into a stirring and heating chamber 31 and a transmission chamber 32; a stirring and heating component 9 slidably disposed inside the stirring and heating chamber 31; a water inlet component 6 disposed on one side of the stirring and heating component 9 for supplying hot water to the inner side of the stirring and heating component 9; a drain component 7 disposed on one side of the stirring and heating component 9 for draining the hot water after heat exchange inside the stirring and heating component 9; and a transmission mechanism 8 disposed inside the transmission chamber 32 and connected to the water inlet component 6 and the drain component 7, which drives the transmission mechanism 8 during the process of the water inlet component 6 supplying hot water, thereby enabling the stirring and heating component 9 to reciprocate and lift through the water inlet component 6 and the drain component 7. The bottom of the sedimentation chamber 1 is provided with a honey outlet pipe 12, and a control valve 11 is provided on the honey outlet pipe 12. The top of the support frame 2 is fixed with an outer frame 4, and a pump body 5 is installed inside the outer frame 4 to draw the material inside the stirring and heating chamber 31 into the sedimentation chamber 1.
[0024] In this embodiment, the honey to be processed is injected into the stirring and heating chamber 31 through the inlet pipe on one side of the processing tank 3. Then, external hot water is supplied to the stirring and heating assembly 9 through the water inlet assembly 6. At the same time, the water inlet assembly 6 operates and drives the transmission mechanism 8, which in turn drives the stirring and heating assembly 9 to reciprocate up and down. This allows the stirring and heating assembly 9 to exchange heat with the honey solution inside the processing tank 3 while also stirring and mixing the honey solution to ensure uniform heating. The hot water in the stirring and heating assembly 9 after heat exchange is discharged through the drain assembly 7.
[0025] Example 2 Based on Example 1, a preferred embodiment of the circulating honey processing and sterilization integrated machine provided by this utility model is as follows: Figures 1 to 5 As shown: The stirring and heating assembly 9 includes a lifting plate 91 slidably sleeved inside the stirring and heating chamber 31. Multiple guide plates 94 of varying lengths are symmetrically fixed to the inner side of the lifting plate 91. One end of each guide plate 94 is fixed to the inner wall of the lifting plate 91, and the other end forms a notch 95 between it and the inner wall of the lifting plate 91, allowing the hot water entering the inner side of the lifting plate 91 to flow in an S-shaped trajectory. Several horn tubes 93 are fixed to each guide plate 94. The upper and lower ends of the horn tubes 93 extend beyond the outer wall of the lifting plate 91. A concave surface 92 is provided on the outer wall of the lifting plate 91 at the upper end of the horn tube 93, which has a certain effect on converging and guiding the flow.
[0026] Specifically, the water inlet assembly 6 includes a water pump 61 fixedly installed on the top of the processing tank 3. A hose 62 is connected to the drain end of the water pump 61, and an inner water inlet pipe 63 is connected to the other end of the hose 62. The inner water inlet pipe 63 is fixedly inserted through the top of the processing tank 3. The water inlet assembly 6 also includes an outer water inlet pipe 64 that slides through the interior of the partition 33. The inner water inlet pipe 63 extends slidably into the interior of the outer water inlet pipe 64, and the bottom end of the outer water inlet pipe 64 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 91. The drainage assembly 7 includes an inner drainage pipe 71 fixedly inserted through the top of the processing tank 3 and an outer drainage pipe 72 that slides through the interior of the partition 33. The bottom end of the inner drainage pipe 71 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 91.
[0027] Specifically, the transmission mechanism 8 includes a shaft 86, which rotatably passes through an L-shaped water intake pipe 612 on the water pump 61. One end of the shaft 86 is fixedly connected to the center of the impeller disk 611 inside the housing of the water inlet assembly 6, and the other end of the shaft 86 is fixedly connected to a small bevel gear 85, which meshes with a large bevel gear 84. The transmission mechanism 8 also includes a reciprocating screw 81 rotatably connected to the top of the top column 34 and the top of the processing barrel 3. The reciprocating screw 81 is coaxially fixedly connected to the large bevel gear 84. A slider 82 is sleeved on the outside of the reciprocating screw 81. A horizontal plate 83 is fixedly connected to both sides of the slider 82. The two horizontal plates 83 are respectively fixedly sleeved to the water inlet external pipe 64 and the drainage external pipe 72. Multiple top columns 34 that cooperate with the upper port of the trumpet tube 93 are fixedly connected through the partition plate 33.
[0028] In this embodiment, the honey to be processed is injected into the stirring and heating chamber 31 through the liquid inlet pipe on one side of the processing tank 3. The water pump 61 is started, and the L-shaped water suction pipe 612 on the water pump 61 is connected to the external hot water outlet pipe. The motor on the water pump 61 drives the impeller disk 611 inside its outer casing to rotate. Under the action of centrifugal force, the hot water is pumped into the inner casing of the water pump 61 through the L-shaped water suction pipe 612 and discharged into the inner water inlet pipe 63 through the hose 62. The hot water is then transported to the inner water inlet pipe 64 through the inner water inlet pipe 63, and finally transported to the lifting plate 91 through the outer water inlet pipe 64.
[0029] In this embodiment, since multiple guide plates 94 of different lengths are symmetrically fixed to the inner side of the lifting plate 91, one end of each guide plate 94 is attached to the inner wall of the lifting plate 91, and the other end forms a gap 95 between it and the inner wall of the lifting plate 91. This allows the hot water entering the inner side of the lifting plate 91 to flow in an S-shaped trajectory and finally be transported to the inside of the drain outer pipe 72. The hot water is then transported to the drain inner pipe 71 through the drain outer pipe 72 and discharged. After being heated externally, the hot water is pumped back to the stirring and heating assembly 9 through the water pump 61 to form a cycle.
[0030] In this embodiment, during the hot water delivery process via the water pump 61, the impeller 611 inside the housing of the water pump 61 drives the shaft 86 to rotate, which in turn drives the small bevel gear 85 to rotate. The small bevel gear 85, through the large bevel gear 84, drives the reciprocating screw 81 to rotate, causing the slider 82 to move up and down on the outside of the reciprocating screw 81. This, in turn, drives the drain pipe 72 and the inlet pipe 64 to slide back and forth inside the partition 33 via the two horizontal plates 83, and drives them to slide back and forth outside the drain pipe 71 and the inlet pipe 63, respectively. This causes the lifting plate 91 to move up and down, allowing the honey solution to swirl and mix within the trumpet tube 93, and to exchange heat with the lifting plate 91. Generally, heating at 50 to 65 degrees Celsius for half an hour can achieve pasteurization and sterilization. When the stirring and heating component 9 moves to a certain position, the top posts 34 distributed on the partition 33 can be inserted into the upper port of the horn tube 93 to intermittently clear the horn tube 93 and avoid blockage.
