[0017] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantage of the utility model more clearly, the utility model is further explained in detail below by combining with examples and drawings, and the illustrative embodiment and its explanation of the utility model are only used to explain the utility model, and not as the limitation of the utility model.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] As Figure 1 shown in a kind of filter device for extracting soluble dietary fiber, including burrel 1, burrel 1 includes filter cavity 11, the cavity top of filter cavity 11 is through as injection port, cavity bottom has a plurality of micropore for filtering, filter cavity 11 can be detachably equipped with suction filter cup 2, suction filter cup 2 includes filter paper along filter cavity 11 cavity wall laying, when filter paper is laid along filter cavity 11 cavity wall and forms the filter shell 21 of top penetration, the bottom of filter shell 21 is laid with diatomite layer 22, specifically, filter paper has innumerable small holes for liquid particles to pass through, and the solid particles of larger volume cannot pass through, and the filter shell 21 formed using this characteristic can realize the extraction of dietary fiber.

[0020] When extracting dietary fiber, firstly, the suction cup 2 is placed into the filter chamber 11 of the Buchner funnel 1. Then, the filtrate is injected into the filter chamber 11. Under the action of gravity, small molecules in the filtrate pass through the small pores on the filter shell 21, while the dietary fiber molecules are larger and are either adsorbed by the pores of the diatomaceous earth layer or blocked and retained by the small pores on the filter shell 21, thus completing the extraction of dietary fiber. Specifically, the pore size on the filter shell 21 is 10-25 micrometers.

[0021] In this embodiment, a Buchner funnel 1 and a self-made suction cup 2 are used together to extract dietary fiber. During the entire extraction process, the filter shell 21 is used to isolate the diatomaceous earth layer 22 from the micropores on the Buchner funnel 1 used for filtration, thereby avoiding the problem of micropore blockage and ensuring extraction efficiency.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] In some embodiments, the Buchner funnel 1 further includes an air extraction pipe 12 that communicates with the bottom end of the filter chamber 11. The air extraction pipe 12 is connected to the air extraction device. During the extraction of dietary fiber, the air extraction device increases the speed at which small molecules in the filtrate pass through the small holes on the filter shell 21, thereby accelerating the extraction efficiency of dietary fiber.

[0024] In practice, after placing the suction cup 2 into the filter chamber 11 of the Buchner funnel 1, water or solution is added to wet the suction cup 2, so that the filter paper is tightly attached to the wall of the filter chamber 11 to prevent air leakage. Then, the filtrate is injected into the filter chamber 11 and the suction device is activated. Under the action of the suction device, small molecules in the filtrate can quickly pass through the small holes on the filter shell 21, thereby accelerating the extraction speed of dietary fiber.

[0025] Example 3

[0026] During the process of accelerating the extraction of dietary fiber using an air suction device, considering that the filter paper is difficult to resist the suction force of the air suction device and is prone to damage to the filter shell 21, a geotextile 3 is further provided on the surface where the filter shell 21 contacts the bottom of the filter chamber 11. Specifically, the suction force of the air suction device passes through the geotextile 3 and then acts on the filter shell 21. When the filter shell 21 is subjected to suction, it moves in the direction of the suction force. At this time, the flexibility of the geotextile 3 can be used to offset the potential energy of the movement of the filter shell 21, thereby protecting the filter shell 21. Compared with the method of directly contacting the bottom of the filter chamber 11, it is not easy to be damaged. Preferably, the periphery of the geotextile 3 extends towards the top port of the filter shell 21 to form a protective groove, thereby protecting the entire filter shell 21. The protective groove, the filter shell 21, and the cavity wall of the filter chamber 11 are connected into a whole by multiple fixing clips 4 to prevent the protective groove and the side of the filter shell 21 from collapsing.

[0027] In view of the fact that the arrangement of the protection groove will affect the air tightness between the filter shell 21 and the cavity wall of the filtering cavity 11, further, as shown in Figure 2 the edge of the filter shell 21 is turned to form a turned edge groove 23, the turned edge groove 23 is sleeved on the edge of the protection groove, before starting the air suction device, the turned edge groove 23 is also soaked with water or solution, and is tightly attached to the cavity wall of the filtering cavity 11 to achieve the purpose of no air leakage.

[0028] In the embodiment, considering that the obtained residue needs to be sent to a 120-degree oven to be baked to constant weight and then be subjected to dietary fiber determination, in order to ensure that the geotextile 3 can withstand high temperature, the geotextile 3 is selected to be a polytetrafluoroethylene geotextile.

[0029] Of course, the present application can also have other various embodiments, and those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications according to the present application without departing from the spirit and essence of the present application, but these corresponding changes and modifications should all belong to the protection scope of the claims attached to the present application.
