Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fruit wine, in particular to a fermentation device for processing cherry wine with an automatic discharging function. Background Art

[0002] A fermentation tank is a device for mechanically stirring and fermenting materials. It is widely used in industries such as dairy products, beverages, bioengineering, pharmaceuticals, and fine chemicals. Its main body is usually made of stainless steel plates and has a cylindrical structure. The volume ranges from 1m³ to hundreds of m³. In the fermentation process of fruit wine, the fruit is crushed, squeezed to extract juice, and then made into fruit wine through alcohol fermentation and aging processes. This is a drink with a unique flavor. However, in the middle and late stages of the fermentation of fruit wine, the fruit material will gradually lose its flavor, and may even introduce bitterness or miscellaneous flavors, affecting the final quality of the fruit wine. At the same time, the fruit material that stays in the fermentation tank for a long time is prone to breed bacteria or mold. Therefore, in the middle and late stages of fermentation or when the fermentation is completed, the fruit material at the bottom of the fermentation tank needs to be cleaned and removed in time. However, the existing device has the problem of partial residue of fruit material during the discharging process, which requires further manual cleaning, increasing the labor intensity. In addition, the fruit material at the bottom of the fermentation tank usually contains a lot of water and entrains part of the fruit wine. These fruit wines need to be recycled by squeezing the fruit material, and the recycled fruit wine will be used to adjust the flavor of the fruit wine to improve the quality of the fruit wine. However, existing equipment requires the recovered fruit materials to be transported and then processed through independent extrusion equipment. This process not only reduces operational efficiency, but may also affect the timeliness of flavor adjustment due to delayed fruit wine recovery, further limiting the improvement of production efficiency and product quality.

[0003] Chinese patent announcement number CN220766931U discloses a fast-discharging cherry wine fermentation device, which can quickly discharge cherry wine after fermentation by setting a stirring mechanism and a discharging mechanism, and reduce the problem of fruit material residue or blockage to a certain extent. Although this patent can reduce some fruit material residues through the setting of fast discharging, the function of the existing stirring mechanism is limited to the mixing of liquid and fruit material in the stirring tank, and it is impossible to effectively guide or process the fruit material and pomace at the discharge port. Some fruit material may still be retained at the bottom of the fermentation tank, and the residual problem requires manual cleaning, which is difficult to achieve full automation, increasing the complexity of operation and labor intensity. And the fruit material discharged by the equipment still needs to be processed by a separate extrusion device to recover the fruit wine therein. Since the recovered fruit wine is often used for flavor adjustment, its additional transportation and extrusion steps directly lead to a decrease in the recovery efficiency of the fruit wine and the timeliness of flavor adjustment, thereby extending the entire processing cycle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 5 and Fig. 9As shown: A fermentation equipment for processing cherry wine with automatic discharging function, comprising a fermentation tank 1 and a discharging mechanism 2 arranged at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, a discharging port 11 is arranged at the center of the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, and the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 is a conical structure; the discharging mechanism 2 comprises a driving box 21, an extrusion tank 212, a collecting chamber 211, an extrusion assembly 2124 and a pipeline 213; the driving box 21 is installed at the bottom of the discharging port 11; the collecting chamber 211 and the extrusion tank 212 are both located in the driving box 21, and the collecting chamber 211 is located above the extrusion tank 212; the collecting chamber 211 is sleeved on the discharging port 11, and a plurality of collecting grooves 2111 that can slide along the radial direction of the fermentation tank 1 are arranged on the surrounding side of the collecting chamber 211, and the collecting groove 2124 can slide along the radial direction of the fermentation tank 1. 111 can slide open or close the collecting chamber 211 to collect the fruit material at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1; an annular filter screen 2121 is arranged in the squeezing tank 212, and the filter screen 2121 divides the squeezing tank 212 into a slag discharge chamber 2122 and a liquid discharge chamber 2123, and the slag discharge chamber 2122 and the liquid discharge chamber 2123 are respectively provided with a slag discharge pipe 21221 and a liquid discharge pipe 21231 leading to the outside of the driving box 21; the squeezing component 2124 is arranged in the slag discharge chamber 2122 of the squeezing tank 212; the pipe 213 is arranged between the collecting chamber 211 and the squeezing tank 212, one end of the pipe 213 is connected to the bottom of the collecting chamber 211, and the other end of the pipe 213 is connected to the top of the slag discharge chamber 2122.

[0031] In the initial state, the plurality of collecting grooves 2111 are all located in the collecting chamber 211, and the collecting grooves 2111 are unable to collect the fruit material at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1. When the fruit material at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 needs to be recovered, the collecting grooves 2111 slide along the radial direction of the fermentation tank 1, so that the collecting grooves 2111 slide out of the collecting chamber 211, and the fruit material can slide into the collecting chamber 211 under the action of gravity. After entering the collecting chamber 211, the fruit material will fall into the pipe 213 at the bottom of the collecting chamber 211 under the action of gravity, and then fall into the slag discharge chamber 2122 of the squeeze tank 212 through the pipe 213.

[0032] At this time, the fruit material in the residue discharge chamber 2122 is squeezed by the squeezing component 2124, and the filter 2121 can separate the pulp and juice in the fruit material, so that the juice can pass through the filter 2121 into the liquid discharge chamber 2123 and be discharged through the liquid discharge pipe 21231; and the fruit residue is discharged from the residue discharge pipe 21221 at the bottom of the residue discharge chamber 2122 under the squeezing action.

[0033] Thus, the fermented fruit material can be automatically discharged and squeezed, and the whole process is automated, which improves the automation level of the production process, reduces manual intervention, reduces the difficulty of operation and labor costs, and improves production efficiency. Through the sliding of the collecting tank 2111 and the squeezing component 2124, the juice in the fruit material can be efficiently separated, and the wine can be recovered to the maximum extent without affecting the quality of the fruit wine.

[0034] By integrating the discharge mechanism 2 at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, the automatic recovery and extrusion processing of the fruit material can be realized, reducing the multiple transfers, manual scooping and secondary extrusion links in traditional equipment, and significantly improving production efficiency. The recovered juice can be directly returned to the fermentation tank 1 through the drainage pipe 21231, avoiding the secondary loss and waste of the wine. By integrating the extrusion function at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, the need for external extrusion equipment is reduced, making the equipment more compact, saving floor space and equipment costs. The equipment can perform preliminary extrusion when the fruit material is close to fermentation completion, without waiting for the fruit material to be fully fermented before special extrusion, thereby maintaining the freshness of the wine and avoiding the impact of excessive fermentation on the quality of the wine.

[0035] like Figures 2 to 5 and Fig. 9 As shown: a lifting assembly 214 is provided in the driving box 21 for driving the collecting chamber 211 to slide along the axial direction of the discharge port 11. The lifting assembly 214 includes an annular bottom plate 2141, an annular support plate 2142 and a plurality of electric push rods 2143. The bottom plate 2141 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the driving box 21, and the plurality of electric push rods 2143 are arranged in a vertical state and equidistantly around the axis of the bottom plate 2141. The support plate 2142 is fixedly connected to the top of the plurality of electric push rods 2143, and the collecting chamber 211 is mounted on the support plate 2142.

[0036] In the initial state, the collecting chamber 211 is located in the discharge port 11, and the collecting groove 2111 is completely inside the collecting chamber 211. The fermentation tank 1 remains sealed to prevent fruit material or juice from entering the collecting chamber 211 during the fermentation process, thereby ensuring the stability of the fermentation environment and the quality of the fruit wine.

[0037] When it is necessary to recover the fermented fruit material, multiple electric push rods 2143 are started synchronously, and the electric push rods 2143 drive the support plate 2142 to lift upward, thereby pushing the collection chamber 211 on the support plate 2142, so that the collection chamber 211 moves along the axial direction of the discharge port 11 until the collection chamber 211 is pushed out of the discharge port 11.

[0038] At this time, the outer wall of the collecting groove 2111 contacts the fruit material in the fermentation tank 1. By driving the collecting groove 2111 to slide radially along the collecting chamber 211, the fruit material will slide into the collecting groove 2111 under the action of gravity because the bottom of the fermentation tank 1 is a conical structure, thereby realizing the collection of the fruit material.

[0039] After the fruit material is collected, the collecting groove 2111 slides into the collecting chamber 211, and the electric push rod 2143 contracts, driving the support plate 2142 to return the collecting chamber 211 to the discharge port 11, restoring the sealing state of the fermentation tank 1, and preparing for the next round of fermentation.

[0040] By setting the lifting assembly 214, the collecting chamber 211 is always located in the discharge port 11 in the initial state, and forms a close fit with the discharge port 11, which significantly improves the sealing of the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, and effectively prevents the fruit material or juice from leaking due to loose sealing during the fermentation process. In addition, the lifting assembly 214 has a simple structure, making the disassembly and maintenance of the equipment more convenient, and reducing the maintenance cost during use.

[0041] By driving the electric push rod 2143, the lifting assembly 214 can accurately control the movement of the collection chamber 211, ensuring the flexible conversion of the collection chamber 211 between the working state and the non-working state, and realizing the collection operation of the fruit material. By synchronously driving the electric push rod 2143, it is ensured that the ejection process of the collection chamber 211 is stable and uniform, so that the collection tank 2111 can smoothly contact the fruit material in the fermentation tank 1, and quickly complete the recovery operation of the fruit material, shorten the discharge time, and improve production efficiency. Through efficient sealing and precise operation, external pollution and material leakage during the fermentation process are avoided, and the stability of the fermentation environment is ensured, thereby improving the quality and flavor of the fruit wine.

[0042] like Figures 2 to 9 As shown: the collecting chamber 211 is provided with connecting channels 2112, the number of which is the same as that of the collecting slots 2111 and which correspond one to one, and the multiple collecting slots 2111 can be slidably arranged in the multiple connecting channels 2112 respectively; the collecting slots 2111 are of an L-shaped structure, and the collecting slots 2111 include a sliding section 21112 sleeved in the connecting channel 2112 and a collecting section 21113 for collecting fruit materials, and the ends of the collecting section 21113 and the sliding section 21112 which are away from each other are both provided with openings, and the collecting section 21113 is of a semicircular arc structure, and a rotating component 215 for driving the collecting chamber 2111 to rotate is arranged in the driving box 21.

[0043] The movement of the collecting trough 2111 is achieved by the sliding of the sliding section 21112 in the connecting channel 2112, and the opening on the collecting section 21113 connected thereto can be driven to be located in the collecting chamber 211 when it retracts, and cooperates with the semicircular arc structure of the collecting section 21113 to achieve isolation from the fruit material, form a good sealing effect, and avoid leakage of the fruit material or juice during the fermentation process; after the collecting chamber 211 is pushed out of the discharge port 11 by the lifting component 214, the collecting trough 2111 slides out of the collecting chamber 211, and at this time the rotating component 215 drives the collecting chamber 211 to rotate, thereby the rotation of the collecting chamber 211 can synchronously drive multiple collecting troughs 2111 to rotate, so that the opening on the collecting section 21113 of the collecting trough 2111 can collect the fruit material.

[0044] The sliding of the collecting tank 2111 is achieved by the cooperation between the sliding section 21112 and the connecting channel 2112, and the driving of the rotating assembly 215 can realize the rotation of the collecting chamber 211 and the collecting tank 2111, making the device structure compact, and completing the sealing and collecting actions at the same time, improving the overall integrated function of the device. The collecting tank 2111 directly completes the collection of the fruit material after the fermentation of the fruit material is completed, eliminating the cumbersome steps of scooping the fruit material and transferring it to other equipment in traditional equipment, improving the overall processing efficiency, and reducing the quality impact caused by the exposure of the fruit material between processes.

[0045] like Figures 2 to 6 and Fig. 9 As shown: the rotating assembly 215 includes a first rotating drive motor 2151, a spline shaft 2152 and a first ring gear 2153, the first ring gear 2153 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the collecting chamber 211, the spline shaft 2152 is rotatably arranged in a vertical state in the driving box 21, and the first ring gear 2153 is meshingly connected with the spline shaft 2152, the first rotating drive motor 2151 is located at the bottom of the driving box 21, and the spline shaft 2152 is transmission-connected to the first rotating drive motor 2151.

[0046] By starting the first rotary drive motor 2151, the output shaft of the first rotary drive motor 2151 drives the rotation of the spline shaft 2152 that is transmission-connected to its output shaft, and the rotation of the spline shaft 2152 drives the rotation of the first gear ring 2153 that is meshing with it, and the rotation of the first gear ring 2153 drives the rotation of the collecting chamber 211 that is fixedly connected to it, so that the rotation of the collecting chamber 211 drives the movement of multiple collecting slots 2111 to realize the collection of fruit materials. The setting of the spline shaft 2152 ensures that the collecting chamber 211 can maintain a transmission connection with the spline shaft 2152 when sliding along the axial direction of the discharge port 11, thereby avoiding transmission interruption and improving the stability and continuity of the equipment.

[0047] It should be noted that the collecting chamber 211 is installed on the supporting plate 2142 means that the bottom of the collecting chamber 211 is rotatably disposed on the supporting plate 2142 of the lifting assembly 214 .

[0048] like Figures 2 to 9 As shown: the top of the collection chamber 211 is provided with a top cover 2113 that matches the bottom of the fermentation tank 1. The top cover 2113 is a conical structure. The bottom of the top cover 2113 is provided with a first driving assembly 2114 for driving the multiple collection tanks 2111 to move synchronously. The first driving assembly 2114 includes a second rotary driving motor 21141 and a second gear ring 21142. The second gear ring 21142 is rotatably provided at the bottom of the top cover 2113. The second rotary driving motor 21141 is located at the top cover. The interior of 2113 is provided with a second gear ring 21142 which is in transmission connection with the second rotary drive motor 21141. The second gear ring 21142 is provided with a plurality of inclined slide rails 21143. The number of the slide rails 21143 is the same as the number of the collecting tanks 2111 and corresponds one to one. The collecting tank 2111 is provided with a connecting shaft 21114 which matches the slide rails 21143. The connecting shaft 21114 is sleeved with a pulley 21115 which can be slidably arranged on the slide rails 21143.

[0049] By starting the second rotary drive motor 21141, the output shaft of the second rotary drive motor 21141 drives the rotation of the second gear ring 21142 that is transmission-connected thereto, and the rotation of the second gear ring 21142 drives a plurality of slide rails 21143, so that the slide rails 21143 rotate synchronously with the second gear ring 21142. Since the collecting groove 2111 can only slide radially along the collecting chamber 211, the slide rails 21143 can drive the movement of the pulley 21115, and the connecting shaft 21114 on the collecting groove 2111 is driven by the pulley 21115. When the pulley 21115 slides along the slide rail 21143, the connecting shaft 21114 will drive the collection groove 2111 to move, thereby realizing the radial sliding of the collection groove 2111.

[0050] By setting the first driving assembly 2114, the second gear ring 21142 is used to drive the slide rail 21143 to rotate, and then the pulley 21115 slides along the slide rail 21143 to convert the rotary motion into the linear sliding of the collection tank 2111. The structure is simple and the action is precise, which can realize the synchronous movement of the collection tank 2111 and improve the efficiency of fruit material collection. The second rotary drive motor 21141 is located inside the top cover 2113, which makes full use of the equipment space, optimizes the structural layout, reduces the equipment volume, and facilitates the integration and compactness of the equipment.

[0051] Through the cooperation of the slide rail 21143 and the pulley 21115, the collecting tank 2111 can quickly and evenly complete the collection of the fruit material during the movement, ensuring that the fruit material will not remain inside the fermentation tank 1, thereby improving the processing efficiency. The equipment can flexibly meet the complex movement requirements of the collecting tank 2111, while ensuring smooth and smooth movement, reducing jamming or blocking, improving the reliability of the equipment operation, and facilitating the installation and disassembly of the equipment, reducing maintenance costs.

[0052] The conical top cover 2113 allows the fruit material to slide down naturally, avoiding accumulation of the fruit material on the top of the top cover 2113, ensuring smooth operation of the equipment, and further enhancing the sealing of the collection chamber 211, preventing overflow of the fruit material or juice during the fermentation process, thereby ensuring a stable fermentation environment.

[0053] like Figures 2 to 9 As shown: a plurality of slots 2115 are arranged on the outer wall of the collecting chamber 211, the number of the slots 2115 is the same as the number of the collecting slots 2111 and corresponds one to one, a plurality of material plates 21151 for blocking the slots 2115 are arranged in the outer wall of the collecting chamber 211, the axis of the material plate 21151 is coaxial with the axis of the collecting chamber 211, the material plate 21151 can be rotatable around the axis of the collecting chamber 211 and is arranged in the outer wall of the collecting chamber 211, and the plurality of material plates 21151 are all transmission-connected to the first driving assembly 2114.

[0054] The material plate 21151 is arranged to rotate around the axis of the collection chamber 211, and the slot 2115 can be opened or closed according to the operation requirements when necessary. When it is necessary to collect fruit materials, the material plate 21151 is driven to rotate around the axis of the collection chamber 211, so that the material plate 21151 is located inside the outer wall of the collection chamber 211, so that the collection slot 2111 can slide out of the collection chamber 211 smoothly, which is convenient for collecting fruit materials. After the collection is completed, the multiple collection slots 2111 first return to the collection chamber 211, and the material plate 21151 rotates back to the initial position again, blocking the slot 2115, and restoring the overall sealing state of the collection chamber 211.

[0055] The slot 2115 on the outer wall of the collecting chamber 211 is sealed by the material plate 21151 to ensure that the outer wall of the collecting chamber 211 forms a complete cylindrical structure when it is not opened, further improving the sealing performance, effectively preventing the fruit material or juice from leaking through the slot 2115 during the fermentation process, and ensuring the stability of the fermentation environment.

[0056] like Figures 2 to 9As shown: the tops of multiple material plates 21151 are each provided with an arc-shaped rack 21152, the axis of the rack 21152 is coaxially arranged with the axis of the material plate 21151, and the bottom of the top cover 2113 is provided with multiple first gears 2116 meshingly connected with the second gear ring 21142, the first gears 2116 are meshingly connected with the rack 21152, the number of the first gears 2116 is the same as the number of the rack 21152 and corresponds one to one, when the material plate 21151 blocks the notch 2115, the collecting groove 2111 slides toward the center of the collecting chamber 211 along the radial direction of the fermentation tank 1.

[0057] When the second rotary drive motor 21141 drives the second ring gear 21142, the second ring gear 21142 drives the slide rail 21143 to rotate. At the same time, the rotation of the second ring gear 21142 also drives the rotation of the first gear 2116 meshing with it, so that multiple first gears 2116 are driven synchronously. The rotation of the first gear 2116 drives the movement of the rack 21152 meshing with it. The rotation of the rack 21152 drives the movement of the material plate 21151. Since the axis of the rack 21152 is coaxially arranged with the axis of the material plate 21151, the material plate 21151 can open or close the slot 2115 around the axis of the collection chamber 211. When the material plate 21151 is completely rotated to the slot 2115, the slot 2115 is completely blocked to achieve the sealing of the collection chamber 211; when the material plate 21151 leaves the slot 2115, the slot 2115 is opened to facilitate the collection slot 2111 to slide out of the collection chamber 211 to achieve the collection of fruit materials.

[0058] The rack 21152 drives the material plate 21151 to move, ensuring that the material plate 21151 can quickly and accurately block the notch 2115, so that the outer wall of the collection chamber 211 forms a complete cylindrical structure, effectively improving the sealing performance of the equipment and preventing leakage of fruit materials during the fermentation process. The second gear ring 21142 drives the rack 21152 through the first gear 2116 to achieve the synchronous rotation of multiple material plates 21151, with a compact structure and efficient transmission, avoiding complex mechanical devices, and improving the stability and durability of the equipment operation. Through the setting of the material plate 21151, the notch 2115 can be quickly blocked and the notch 2115 can be flexibly opened, ensuring the smooth switching between the sealing of the collection chamber 211 and the fruit material collection function, and improving the convenience and flexibility of the operation of the equipment.

[0059] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10As shown: the extrusion assembly 2124 includes an extrusion cylinder 21241, an extrusion shaft 21246 and a third rotary drive motor 21248. The extrusion cylinder 21241 is rotatably arranged in the slag discharge chamber 2122. The extrusion shaft 21246 is fixedly connected to the extrusion cylinder 21241, and the extrusion shaft 21246 is a telescopic structure. The other end of the extrusion shaft 21246 is rotatably arranged in the collecting chamber 211. The extrusion shaft 21246 is provided with a first spiral blade 21247 around its axis, and the extrusion cylinder 21241 is provided with a second spiral blade 21242 around its axis. The third rotary drive motor 21248 is located at the bottom of the drive box 21, and the extrusion cylinder 21241 is transmission-connected to the third rotary drive motor 21248.

[0060] It should be noted that the filter screen 2121 is a conical structure, and the structures of the extrusion cylinder 21241 and the filter screen 2121 match each other. When the collection chamber 211 slides along the discharge port 11, it will drive the extrusion shaft 21246, one end of which is connected to the collection chamber 211, to extend and retract. The extrusion shaft 21246 is a telescopic structure, so that the extrusion shaft 21246 can match the movement of the collection chamber 211. (The top end of the extrusion shaft 21246 is rotatably connected to the collection chamber 211, and the collection chamber 211 will not drive the extrusion shaft 21246 to rotate when it rotates) It flexibly adapts to the movement of the collection chamber 211, ensures the coordination between the function of the extrusion assembly 2124 and the overall operation of the equipment, and does not affect the stability and continuity of the extrusion process due to the movement of the collection chamber 211.

[0061] When the fruit material enters the collecting chamber 211, the third rotary drive motor 21248 is started, and the output shaft of the third rotary drive motor 21248 drives the extrusion cylinder 21241 connected thereto to rotate, and the rotation of the extrusion cylinder 21241 drives the rotation of the extrusion shaft 21246 fixed thereto, and the rotation of the extrusion shaft 21246 drives the rotation of the first spiral blade 21247, and the fruit material is guided to the slag discharge chamber 2122 along the axis direction of the extrusion shaft 21246 by the spiral propulsion of the first spiral blade 21247. After the fruit material enters the slag discharge chamber 2122, the second spiral blade 21242 on the extrusion cylinder 21241 further propels the fruit material. The extrusion force of the second spiral blade 21242 causes the fruit material to move toward the filter screen 2121, so that the juice is separated from the fruit material, and the juice passes through the filter screen 2121 and enters the liquid discharge chamber 2123, while the remaining pomace is discharged at the slag discharge port by the spiral propulsion.

[0062] The first spiral blade 21247 on the extrusion shaft 21246 can quickly guide the fruit material from the collection chamber 211 into the residue discharge chamber 2122, thereby realizing fast and efficient fruit material transportation, reducing the residence time of the fruit material in the collection chamber 211, and improving the processing efficiency of the equipment. The second spiral blade 21242 on the extrusion cylinder 21241 further squeezes the fruit material through a uniform and stable extrusion force, so that the juice and the pulp are fully separated, and the separation effect is significant, which effectively improves the juice extraction rate, while ensuring the dryness of the pomace and reducing the subsequent processing costs. The juice and pomace are separated inside the equipment, avoiding environmental pollution and fruit material loss caused by fruit material overflow or multiple processing, and improving the neatness and economy of fruit material processing.

[0063] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, a rotating disk 21243 for driving the pomace to move is disposed at the bottom of the extrusion cylinder 21241 , and a plurality of slag discharge plates 21245 equidistantly surrounding the axis of the extrusion cylinder 21241 are disposed on the rotating disk 21243 .

[0064] The rotation of the extrusion cylinder 21241 can drive the rotation of the rotating disk 21243, and the rotation of the rotating disk 21243 also drives the rotation of multiple slag discharge plates 21245, so that the slag discharge plates 21245 can gradually push the fruit residue at the bottom of the extrusion cylinder 21241 to the slag discharge port, thereby realizing effective discharge of the fruit residue.

[0065] The slag discharge plate 21245 is designed to be evenly distributed and directed to move the pomace under the drive of the rotating disk 21243, so as to prevent the pomace from accumulating or being trapped at the bottom of the extrusion cylinder 21241, and ensure a smooth and unobstructed slag discharge process. The action of the rotating disk 21243 works synchronously with the second spiral blade 21242 in the extrusion cylinder 21241. After the fruit material is extruded by the second spiral blade 21242, the pomace is guided to the slag discharge port under the push of the slag discharge plate 21245, which effectively cooperates with the entire extrusion and slag discharge process. No additional complex transmission mechanism is required, the structure is simple, and it can effectively reduce mechanical wear and energy consumption, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce operating costs. The structural design of the rotating disk 21243 and the slag discharge plate 21245 is easy to disassemble and clean, and the pomace can be discharged quickly, which reduces the cleaning burden and working cycle of the equipment, and helps to maintain the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0066] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown: the pipeline 213 is a telescopic structure.

[0067] The pipe 213 is a telescopic structure, so that the collection chamber 211 can drive the pipe 213 to be telescopic when it moves, and can ensure that the fruit materials collected in the collection chamber 211 are accurately put into the slag discharge chamber 2122.

[0068] The above embodiments only express one or several implementation modes of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
