Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing, and in particular to a milk tea cooling pool. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of milk tea beverages, the cooling process is one of the key steps affecting the quality, taste, and production efficiency of milk tea. Milk tea ingredients (such as tea soup and milk base) are often at a high temperature (usually 80-100℃) after extraction or blending, and need to be quickly cooled to a suitable temperature of 25-35℃ for subsequent processing or drinking. If the cooling is not timely or the cooling method is improper, it can easily lead to loss of flavor, bacterial growth, or prolong the production cycle, affecting the store's food service efficiency. At present, the industry mainly divides the cooling methods for milk tea ingredients into two categories: traditional simple cooling methods and existing special cooling equipment. However, both have obvious limitations in practical applications and cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of high efficiency, energy saving, low cost, and convenient operation.

[0003] In existing technologies, after the milk tea is prepared and sealed, the milk tea itself is hot and needs to be cooled before storage. Previously, it was placed in water and cooled down using water. After the milk tea cooled down, the water temperature rose. When cooling down the next batch of milk tea, the water needs to be replaced, which wastes water and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Furthermore, the heat of the water after it rises cannot be utilized, resulting in heat loss and poor energy-saving effect.

[0004] Therefore, we provide a milk tea cooling pool. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a milk tea cooling pool that can quickly cool down the tea without draining water, thus saving water resources and improving energy efficiency, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a milk tea cooling pool, comprising an outer shell, a cooling pool fixedly connected to the top of the outer shell, a collection tray provided at the bottom of the cooling pool, a circulating cooling pipe fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell, a water inlet pipe fixedly connected to the input end of the circulating cooling pipe, a three-way valve fixedly connected to the input end of the water inlet pipe, a one-way valve fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the input end of the three-way valve, and a heat recovery circulating cooling mechanism provided on the right side of the outer shell.

[0007] In some embodiments, the heat recovery and cooling mechanism includes a heat exchange tank fixedly located on the right side of the outer casing. A drawer is movably connected to the top of the heat exchange tank, and handles are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the top of the drawer. A return water pipe is fixedly connected to the rear end of the heat exchange tank, and a one-way valve is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the return water pipe. A heat exchanger is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inside of the heat exchange tank. A water pump is fixedly connected to the front end of the heat exchange tank, and a water supply pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump. A heat dissipation box is sleeved on the outside of the water supply pipe. Several heat dissipation holes are fixedly opened on both the top and bottom sides of the heat dissipation box in a straight line at equal intervals. A mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the rear end of the heat dissipation box, and a cooling fan is fixedly connected to the front end of the heat dissipation box. Heat dissipation fins are fixedly connected inside the heat dissipation box. The advantage of this design is that it realizes heat recovery and utilization, avoids heat loss, and improves energy saving.

[0008] In some embodiments, the inlet end of the return water pipe is fixedly connected to the outlet end of the circulating cooling pipe, and the return water pipe passes through the heat exchanger and is fixedly connected to the inlet end of the water pump. The advantage of this design is that it facilitates water circulation, thereby enabling continuous cooling of milk tea without changing the water.

[0009] In some embodiments, the water supply pipe passes through the heat sink, and the output end of the water supply pipe is fixedly connected to the input end of a one-way valve. The advantage of this design is that it further cools the cooling water and ensures the cooling effect.

[0010] In some embodiments, the heat exchange box is fixedly connected to the hot water tank via a mounting bracket at the rear end. The advantage of this design is that it facilitates installation and disassembly, thereby aiding in maintenance and repair.

[0011] In some embodiments, support legs are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the outer shell, a water collection tank is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer shell, a through hole is fixedly opened at the center of the top of the water collection tank, a slot is fixedly opened at the front end of the water collection tank, sliding grooves are fixedly opened on both sides inside the slot, a filter screen is provided inside the slot, sliding rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the filter screen, and a baffle is fixedly connected to the front end of the filter screen. The advantage of this design is that the ingredients that come out after the milk tea cup is broken can be guided into the collection drawer, and the waste can be recycled using the collection drawer. At the same time, the wastewater can be filtered and reused, further saving water resources.

[0012] In some embodiments, the water collection tank is connected to the bottom of the cooling pool through a through hole at the top, and the filter screen is slidably connected to the sliding grooves on both sides of the slot through sliding rods on both sides. A drainage pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rear end of the water collection tank. The advantage of this design is that the filter screen can filter impurities in the wastewater, thereby facilitating the reuse of wastewater.

[0013] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: This invention utilizes a heat recovery and circulating cooling mechanism in conjunction with circulating cooling pipes. After the milk tea cools down, the temperature inside the cooling pool rises. At this time, the circulating cooling pipes drive the cooling water to circulate around the cooling pool, absorbing heat and flowing into the hot water exchange tank. The heat exchanger in the hot water exchange tank absorbs the heat and transfers it to the water in the tank, thus recovering the heat from the cooling water. The heated water in the hot water tank can rehydrate solid syrups (such as rock sugar syrup or caramel syrup) or crystallized honey, making it convenient for quantitative use and achieving secondary utilization of heat. The cooled water after heat exchange re-enters the heat dissipation tank, where a cooling fan and heat sink can further cool the water, thus achieving water circulation and cooling within the cooling pool. This allows for rapid cooling of the milk tea placed in the cooling pool without the need for drainage, saving water resources and improving energy efficiency. Attached Figure Description
