Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brewing equipment technology, and in particular to a whiskey distillation device. Background Technology

[0002] Whisky is made from malt, which is saccharified to produce wort, fermented with yeast to create a base spirit (similar to beer). This base spirit is then distilled, blended, and aged. The resulting whisky has a complex and complex flavor profile. Currently, the method for distilling the base spirit involves using a still, collecting the distillate, and then blending and other subsequent processes to produce whisky.

[0003] In the prior art, there is a Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN207525222U entitled "A Novel Whisky Distillation Apparatus." This apparatus uses a storage tank to heat and evaporate the spirit into a multi-stage bubble cap plate distillation column, which then cools the spirit through multiple stages to obtain whisky. Because of the multi-stage structure of the distillation column, the storage tank needs to generate sufficient steam to meet the steam demand of the upper stages. However, the closer to the upper stages of the distillation column, the longer the steam travels, making it more difficult for the steam to reach the upper stages, resulting in less steam and a reduced distillation efficiency. Therefore, a whisky distillation apparatus with a larger steam output that can meet the needs of multi-stage distillation is needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a whiskey distillation device to solve the problem of insufficient distillation volume in multi-stage distillation towers, which makes it difficult to achieve a high distillation effect.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A whiskey distillation apparatus includes a storage tank and a self-heating distillation column disposed on top of the storage tank. The inlet of the self-heating distillation column is connected to the outlet of the storage tank via a supply pipe, and a water pump is installed on the supply pipe. The self-heating distillation column includes multiple distillation units that are connected sequentially from top to bottom and locked together by clamps. Each distillation unit includes a shell and multiple heating plates. The multiple heating plates are arranged alternately from top to bottom inside the shell, and the liquid medium forms baffles between the multiple heating plates.

[0006] A further technical solution is that the outlet of each distillation unit is connected through a steam pipe, and a vacuum pump is installed on the steam pipe.

[0007] A further technical solution is that a flow regulating valve is provided on the air inlet end of the distillation unit.

[0008] A further technical solution is that the liquid outlet end of the heating plate is tilted upwards.

[0009] A further technical solution is that a dike is provided on the heating plate.

[0010] A further technical solution is that the heating plate consists of a plate body and heating pipes disposed on the plate body, and the heating pipes are connected to an external heating device.

[0011] A further technical solution is that a preheating plate is installed inside the liquid storage tank.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects: This invention proposes a whiskey distillation device that incorporates a self-heating distillation tower into the existing whiskey distillation apparatus. Based on multi-stage distillation, the whiskey can be distributed to each layer of the self-heating distillation tower, and then each layer of whiskey is heated and evaporated by heating plates to ensure that each layer can generate whiskey vapor, thereby ensuring sufficient steam volume for multi-stage distillation and guaranteeing distillation results.

Each distillation unit 5 includes a shell 7 and multiple heating plates 8. The multiple heating plates 8 are arranged alternately from top to bottom inside the shell 7, and the liquid medium forms a baffle between the multiple heating plates 8.

[0022] The liquid in storage tank 1 is pumped by water pump 4 and fed through supply pipe 3 into each distillation unit 5 of the self-heating distillation column 2. After being heated by heating plate 8, the liquid evaporates and is distilled in its respective distillation unit 5 (such as a traditional distillation device CN207525222U). Unevaporated liquid is returned to storage tank 1. This equipment adds a self-heating distillation column to the existing whiskey distillation device. Based on multi-stage distillation, the liquid can be distributed to each layer of the self-heating distillation column, and then the liquid in each layer is heated and evaporated by heating plates to ensure that each layer generates alcohol vapor, thereby ensuring sufficient steam for multi-stage distillation and guaranteeing distillation effect.

[0023] Preferably, the outlet of each distillation unit 5 is connected through a steam pipe 9, and a vacuum pump 10 is installed on the steam pipe 9.

[0024] The vacuum pump 10 extracts and concentrates the steam in each distillation unit 5 through the steam pipe 9, ensuring that the steam that cannot be cooled in time can be discharged in time and cooled by external cooling equipment.

[0025] Preferably, a flow regulating valve 11 is provided on the air inlet end of the distillation unit 5.

[0026] The flow regulating valve 11 is used to adjust the liquid inlet flow rate of each distillation unit 5.

[0027] Preferably, the liquid outlet end of the heating plate 8 is inclined upward.

[0028] The liquid outlet of the heating plate 8 is tilted upwards, which can temporarily store some of the wine or slow down the flow rate of the wine to ensure continuous evaporation.

[0029] Preferably, a dike 12 is provided on the heating plate 8.

[0030] The dam 12 is used to temporarily store the wine.

[0031] Preferably, the heating plate 8 consists of a plate body 13 and a heating pipe 14 disposed on the plate body 13, and the heating pipe 14 is connected to an external heating device.

[0032] The heating element 14 can be a steam pipe or a heat-conducting oil pipe to heat and evaporate the wine stored on the plate 13.

[0033] Preferably, a preheating plate 15 is provided inside the liquid storage tank 1.

[0034] A preheating plate 15 (which can be the same as a heating plate or an electric heating plate) can be used to heat and keep the wine flowing back into the storage tank, thereby promoting the evaporation effect of the evaporation unit 5.

[0035] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
