Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coffee grounds purification, in particular to a coffee grounds purification device. Background Art

[0002] Instant coffee is a common food ingredient in the market. This product is mainly made from coffee beans, which are processed through roasting, grinding, extraction, concentration, spray drying and other processes. The yield of instant coffee produced from roasted coffee beans is generally 30-55%, and 45-70% of dry matter is discharged with coffee grounds, which means that a large amount of coffee grounds will be generated during the production process.

[0003] Generally, fresh coffee grounds contain 68% water, 3.7% fat, 4.2% protein, and 0.15% ash. The fat content in instant coffee is less than 1%, which means that most of the fat (coffee oil) is discharged with the coffee grounds. Tests show that when we dry fresh coffee grounds, the fat content in the dried coffee grounds is greater than 10%. At the same time, coffee grounds contain a large amount of carbohydrates such as lignin, fiber, and water-insoluble polysaccharides, which provide a substrate for the preparation of flavor substances. However, the existing coffee grounds extraction equipment generally directly extracts the coffee grounds during extraction, and the coffee grounds particles are large, which will affect the subsequent extraction equipment to extract the coffee grounds.

[0004] So we proposed a coffee grounds purification device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0012] Furthermore, the interior of the filter plate is of a hollow design, and a drainage port is provided at the lower end of the filter plate.

[0013] Through the above technical solution, the filtrate squeezed out from the coffee grounds under the action of the squeezing plate can fall into the distillation tank through the discharge port of the filter plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes an electric push rod fixed to the upper end of the bottom plate, a movable plate is fixed to the output end of the electric push rod, and a driving block is fixed to the side of the movable plate.

[0015] Through the above technical solution, when the electric push rod is started, the movable plate can be driven to move up and down.

[0019] Through the above technical solution, the sleeve can be driven to rotate by utilizing the cooperation between the driving groove and the driving block.

[0020] 3. Beneficial effects:

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the coffee grounds purification device of the utility model adopts the technical solution provided by the utility model. After the coffee grounds are finely ground by the grinding component, the coffee grounds are efficiently filtered by the extrusion component, thereby improving the extraction effect of the subsequent extraction equipment on the coffee grounds.
