Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dairy product production technology, and in particular to a dairy product cooling and stirring device. Background Technology

[0002] In the dairy processing industry, cooling and agitation are crucial for ensuring product quality. Traditional dairy cooling and agitation devices often suffer from low cooling efficiency: existing devices rely solely on a single fan and internal agitation structure for cooling, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency. This leads to slow localized cooling of dairy products and the tendency for temperature stratification. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a dairy cooling and agitation device that uses a rotating mechanism to drive a serpentine agitator made of food-grade stainless steel. This device can efficiently agitate the dairy products in the cooling tank while simultaneously supplying circulating cold water to the serpentine agitator via a cold water supply mechanism. The cold water quickly removes heat from the dairy products, achieving cooling. At the same time, a circulating conveying mechanism can extract the dairy products from the cooling tank into a ring pipe and then discharge them through multiple outlets. During the descent, the products come into contact with the air, further dissipating heat. This dual cooling mechanism significantly improves the cooling effect of the dairy product cooling and agitation device, overcoming the shortcomings of current applications and meeting current needs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dairy product cooling and stirring device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A dairy product cooling and stirring device includes a cooling tank, a cold water supply mechanism, a serpentine stirring tube, a rotating mechanism, and a circulating conveying mechanism. The serpentine stirring tube is rotatably connected to the cooling tank. The cold water supply mechanism is placed on the ground and connected to the serpentine stirring tube. The cold water supply mechanism includes a water tank, a water pump, an industrial chiller, an output pipe, and a return pipe. The inlet of the water pump is connected to the water tank via a pipe, and the outlet of the water pump is connected to the inlet of the industrial chiller via a pipe. The outlet of the industrial chiller is connected to the serpentine stirring tube via the output pipe. The upper end of the serpentine stirring tube is inserted into the output pipe and rotates with it. The serpentine stirring tube is connected to a return pipe at its lower end, which is rotatably connected to the return pipe. The return pipe is connected to a water tank. The rotating mechanism is installed on the top of the cooling tank and connected to the serpentine stirring tube. The circulating conveying mechanism includes a circulating pump, a suction pipe, a guide pipe, an annular pipe, a discharge nozzle, and support legs. The circulating pump is fixedly installed on one side of the cooling tank. The water inlet of the circulating pump is connected to the cooling tank through the suction pipe. The outlet of the circulating pump is connected to the annular pipe through the guide pipe. Multiple discharge nozzles facing the inside of the cooling tank are installed on the lower side of the annular pipe. The annular pipe is fixedly supported on the cooling tank by multiple support legs.

[0005] Preferably, the cooling tank is equipped with a liquid level indicator line located at two-thirds of the internal height of the cooling tank, and a discharge port is provided at the lower end of the cooling tank, with an end cap detachably installed on the discharge port.

[0006] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a drive motor, a first gear, and a second gear. The drive motor is fixed to the cooling box, and the first gear is fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor. A second gear is provided on one side of the first gear to mesh with it, and the second gear is fixed to the upper end of the serpentine stirring tube.

[0007] Preferably, the serpentine stirring tube is made of food-grade stainless steel.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When using this dairy product cooling and stirring device, dairy products are added to the cooling tank, and the addition is stopped after reaching the liquid level indicator line to prevent overfilling. Then, the drive motor drives the first gear and the second gear to rotate, and the second gear drives the serpentine stirring tube to rotate for stirring. At the same time, a water pump draws water from the tank and delivers it to an industrial chiller. The industrial chiller cools the water and then delivers it to the serpentine stirring tube. The cold water removes the heat from the dairy products, and the water flows back to the tank through the return pipe. In addition, a circulating pump draws dairy products from the cooling tank and delivers them to an annular pipe, and then discharges them through multiple outlets into the cooling tank. During the process of falling, the dairy products come into contact with the air and dissipate the heat, thereby improving the cooling effect. In summary, this invention drives a food-grade stainless steel serpentine stirring tube to rotate via a rotating mechanism. This not only efficiently stirs the dairy products in the cooling tank but also supplies circulating cold water to the serpentine stirring tube via a cold water supply mechanism. The cold water quickly removes heat from the dairy products, achieving cooling. Simultaneously, a circulating conveying mechanism can draw the dairy products from the cooling tank into a ring tube and then discharge them through multiple outlets. During the descent, the products come into contact with the air, further dissipating heat. This dual cooling mechanism significantly improves the cooling effect. Attached Figure Description
