Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present application.

[0047] The specific implementation of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments.

[0048] Embodiment one, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The utility model provides a filter device for fruit juice beverage production, including base mounting plate 1, which is made of solid metal material and is used for fixing and supporting the stability of the whole device. A front separation shell 2, a secondary filter unit 3 and a tertiary fine filter unit 9 are installed on the base mounting plate 1, wherein the front separation shell 2 is located at the initial position of the base mounting plate 1, the secondary filter unit 3 is arranged in a horizontal direction to facilitate fluid flow, and the tertiary fine filter unit 9 is located at the end of the filtration path. A feed hopper 5 is connected to the input end of the front separation shell 2, which is designed as a funnel shape to facilitate the feeding operation of fruit juice. The inside of the box of the front separation shell 2 is provided with a front separation grid 6 and a front filter module 7. The front separation grid 6 is installed near the inlet of the box in a metal grid structure and is used for preliminary interception of larger solid impurities, and the front filter module 7 is located at the end of the box and includes multiple layers of filter media such as activated carbon or microporous filter cloth to realize the function of preliminary multi-stage filtration. The output end of the front filter module 7 is in fluid communication with the secondary filter unit 3 through a pipeline or a direct interface, ensuring seamless transition of the juice from primary filtration to secondary filtration. The secondary filter unit 3 has an inclination angle of 20-45 degrees, which is beneficial to gravity-assisted liquid flow, and it is internally integrated with a secondary filter bottom cabin 4, which is designed to be detachable to intercept smaller particles. The output end of the secondary filter bottom cabin 4 is installed with the front filter module 7 and enters the box of the tertiary fine filter unit 9 through this structure; in addition, the output end of the secondary filter unit 3 is directly connected to the input end of a shunt conveying assembly 8 in the tertiary fine filter unit 9, forming a fluid guiding path. The box of the tertiary fine filter unit 9 is a sealed cavity, and it is internally provided with the shunt conveying assembly 8, which includes branch pipelines or flow guides for uniformly distributing the juice to the terminal filtration area. The tertiary fine filter unit 9 is also provided with a terminal fine filter mechanism, which uses nanoscale filter membranes or molecular sieve materials to complete the final filtration treatment.

[0049] The device is installed on the base mounting plate 1 as a whole, has a compact structure, is convenient for maintenance and component replacement, improves operation stability and service life. The connection design of the front filter module 7 of the secondary filter bottom cabin 4 further enhances the continuity of filtration and reduces energy consumption.

[0050] The fruit juice is first input into the pre-separation shell 2 through the feeding hopper 5, and is preliminarily separated by the pre-separation screen 6 in the tank to filter out large-particle fruit dregs or suspended matter. Subsequently, the juice flows into the pre-filtering module 7, and is subjected to multiple filtering steps to form a primary filtrate, which is then guided to the secondary filtering unit 3. In the secondary filtering unit 3, the juice enters the secondary filtering bottom cabin 4 to perform secondary filtering to remove medium-size impurities and colloidal substances; after the secondary filtering, the juice is input into the tank of the tertiary precision filtering unit 9 through the output end of the secondary filtering bottom cabin 4, and is uniformly guided into different areas of the tertiary precision filtering unit 9 by the shunt conveying assembly 8. In the tertiary precision filtering unit 9, the juice completes the terminal filtering operation, including deep precision filtering and sterilization, and finally outputs the clarified fruit juice product. During the whole process, the juice flow is driven by gravity or auxiliary pump pressure to ensure efficient and continuous processing.

[0051] The technical principle of the filtering device in this embodiment is based on a multi-stage progressive filtering mechanism. The pre-separation screen 6 preliminarily separates impurities by using the physical screening principle to reduce the subsequent load; the pre-filtering module 7 realizes primary purification by multiple adsorption and interception to reduce liquid turbidity. The inclined design of the secondary filtering unit 3 in combination with the fine structure of the secondary filtering bottom cabin 4 utilizes the principles of sedimentation and micropore filtration to perform secondary impurity removal and improve filtering precision. The shunt conveying assembly 8 plays a role in uniform distribution in the tertiary precision filtering unit 9 to prevent flow concentration from causing a decrease in filtering efficiency, while the terminal precision filtering adopts molecular-level barrier technology to completely remove residual particles and microorganisms. The overall structural design follows fluid mechanics optimization, reduces pressure drop loss through cascade connection, ensures smooth juice flow, and realizes gradient improvement from coarse filtering to precision filtering.

[0052] The combination of the pre-separation screen 6 and the pre-filtering module 7 can efficiently separate large-size impurities and reduce the risk of clogging; the inclined layout of the secondary filtering unit 3 in combination with the secondary filtering bottom cabin 4 optimizes the secondary filtering efficiency, especially when processing high-viscosity fruit juice, which can enhance impurity sedimentation and removal rate; uniform distribution is realized through the shunt conveying assembly 8 of the tertiary precision filtering unit 9 to improve terminal filtering precision, ensure high clarity and purity of the fruit juice, and meet beverage production standards; the device can be widely applied to fruit juice beverage production lines to realize automated and efficient filtering.

[0053] Embodiment two, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As a further scheme of the present application, the feeding hopper 5 comprises a main feeding channel 51 and a flow guide upper cover 54; wherein the main feeding channel 51 is in a funnel structure, made of stainless steel, fixed on the top of the pre-separation shell 2, and installed by welding or bolt connection through a support structure 52; the flow guide upper cover 54 is a hinge cover that can be opened and closed, installed on the input port of the top of the pre-separation shell 2, facilitating the control of feeding opening and closing; the side of the main feeding channel 51 extends a supporting plate 53, which is a metal bracket for supporting a pushing actuator 55; the pushing actuator 55 is a pneumatic or electric actuator, which controls the opening and closing action of the flow guide upper cover 54 through linear driving.

[0054] The structure of the pre-separation shell 2 includes a tangential cyclone chamber 21, which is designed as a circular or rectangular cavity, with a tangential inlet to generate centrifugal cyclone; the top of the tangential cyclone chamber 21 is fixed with a top cover support plate 25, which is a steel plate for strengthening structural stability; the bottom is welded to the base mounting plate 1 through a support member 24 to provide support; the pre-separation partition 6 is installed inside the pre-separation shell 2, made of mesh or grating material, separating the inner cavity into the tangential cyclone chamber 21 on the outside and the liquid phase compartment 22 on the inside; the output end of the pre-separation shell 2 is provided with a discharge interface 26, which is a flange or quick connector, connecting the internal fluid space of the liquid phase compartment 22 through an embedded pipeline, and sealingly docking with the input end of the pre-filtering module 7 to realize liquid transfer.

[0055] The extended structure of the pre-filtering module 7 includes a flow guide cavity 71, which is a rectangular sealed shell with a flow guide channel 72 inside, designed as a linear or multi-bend flow channel to guide the liquid to flow sequentially through each filtering unit; a plurality of filtering assemblies 73 are distributed along the flow path of the flow guide channel 72, each filtering assembly 73 is fixed with a filter medium sheet 74, which is a replaceable filter screen or filter cloth material; positioning protrusions 75 are provided on the two inner side walls of the flow guide channel 72, which are in the form of bosses or clamping grooves, allowing the filter medium sheet 74 to be detachably mounted thereon to optimize maintenance; the end of the flow guide channel 72 is provided with a discharge pump body 76, which is a centrifugal pump or screw pump, used to drive the liquid to flow to the next stage.

[0056] During operation, juice enters the front-stage separation shell 2 through the main feed channel 51; the feed pushing actuator 55 opens and closes the flow guide cover 54 according to the operation instruction to control the feed speed and sealing performance and prevent impurities from entering. In the tangential cyclone chamber 21, the front-stage separation partition 6 separates large-particle solid impurities into the liquid phase compartment 22 as a physical barrier to prevent solid backflow. The separated juice is output from the liquid phase compartment 22 to the front-stage filter module 7 through the discharge interface 26 and the built-in pipeline; in the flow guide channel 72, the juice sequentially flows through multiple filter assemblies 73, the filter medium sheets 74 perform preliminary adsorption and interception, and multi-stage filtration is achieved; the discharge pump body 76 actively pumps the juice to the outlet of the flow guide channel 72 to guide the subsequent secondary filter unit 3 and tertiary precision filter unit 9, and finally completes the impurity removal.

[0057] This embodiment is based on a multi-stage filtration mechanism. The array of filter assemblies 73 in the flow guide channel 72 adopts a sequential arrangement, and the gradient pore size design of the filter medium sheets 74 achieves step-by-step purification; the positioning protrusions 75 support the detachable structure to ensure high-precision filtration; the discharge pump body 76 provides power assistance to maintain a stable pressure difference to adapt to juice of different viscosities. The design of the flow guide channel 72 and the detachable filter medium sheets 74 of the front-stage filter module 7 facilitates quick replacement and maintenance, reduces downtime, and ensures stable flow to improve the reliability and filtration continuity of the overall device; ultimately, the energy consumption of juice processing is reduced and the product quality is improved.

[0058] Embodiment Three, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , as a further scheme of the present application, the secondary filter unit 3 includes a double-cavity frame 31 of a metal frame structure, the inside of which is fixed with an internal support plate 32 by bolts, and the input end of the double-cavity frame 31 is provided with a V-shaped liquid collecting groove 33 for receiving the juice input by the front-stage filter module 7. The secondary filter bottom cabin 4 includes a rectangular filter liquid collecting box 41, which is arranged at the bottom of the double-cavity frame 31 and has an open top; a perforated support plate 42 is welded to the top edge of the filter liquid collecting box 41 and is arranged in parallel and spaced apart from the internal support plate 32 to form a filter chamber, and the spacing distance is 50-100 mm. The end of the liquid collecting groove 33 extends and overlaps on the surface of the perforated support plate 42, the surface of the perforated support plate 42 is uniformly provided with an array of through holes and is installed with a filter core assembly 43. The filter core assembly 43 adopts a cylindrical structure, including a skeleton support net 44 of stainless steel, and the surface of the skeleton support net 44 is covered with a separation membrane layer 45 of polytetrafluoroethylene; a driving mechanism 46 is embedded at the longitudinal center line position of the skeleton support net 44, the driving end of the driving mechanism 46 vertically extends into the inner cavity of the filter liquid collecting box 41 downward, the driving end is connected with a plurality of helical propellers 47 arranged at equal angles in a spiral shape through a shaft coupling, and the helical propellers 47 are made of 304 stainless steel.

[0059] The shunt delivery assembly 8 comprises an aluminum alloy distributor housing 81, the input end of which is sealed and connected to the output port of the side wall of the filtrate collection tank 41 through a flange; the output end of the distributor housing 81 is symmetrically connected to a plurality of delivery pipe bodies 82, which are distributed equidistantly along the radial direction to form a shunt array.

[0060] After the fruit juice treated by the pre-filtering module 7 is collected in the liquid collection tank 33, it flows uniformly to the surface of the porous support plate 42. When the juice penetrates the separation membrane layer 45 of the filter core assembly 43, secondary filtration is completed under the action of the micropores of the separation membrane layer 45, and the impurities are trapped on the surface of the separation membrane layer 45. At the same time, the driving mechanism 46 drives the spiral propeller 47 to rotate in the filtrate collection tank 41, and the downward thrust generated by the spiral blade promotes the filtrate to quickly pass through the porous support plate 42, while preventing the impurity layer on the surface of the separation membrane layer 45 from accumulating too thick. The filtered filtrate is temporarily stored in the filtrate collection tank 41, and then is distributed to the plurality of delivery pipe bodies 82 through the distributor housing 81, and is uniformly delivered to the three-stage precision filtration unit 9 after forming an equal flow shunt for subsequent processing.

[0061] The double-cavity frame 31 and the porous support plate 42 constitute a double-layer filtration support system in this embodiment, and the fluid distribution effect is optimized through physical spacing; the filter core assembly 43 is enhanced in rigidity by the skeleton support net 44, and the separation membrane layer 45 realizes the trapping of 0.1-10 μm impurities by using the micropore separation principle; the dynamic filtration mechanism designed in this embodiment produces a double effect through rotation: one is that the spiral propeller 47 forms a negative pressure gradient in the filtrate collection tank 41 to accelerate the filtration penetration efficiency, and the other is that the blade rotation disturbance effectively removes the impurity layer on the surface of the separation membrane layer 45, realizing the self-cleaning function. This embodiment is combined with embodiment two to improve the reliability and filtration continuity of the overall device; and finally the energy consumption of fruit juice processing is reduced and the product quality is improved.

[0062] Example Four, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As a further scheme of the application, the sealed box body of the tertiary fine filter unit 9 is provided with a fine filter cavity frame 91, which is formed by welding stainless steel, and the bottom plate of the fine filter cavity frame 91 is paved with a filter membrane plate layer with nanoscale pore size. The filtered filtrate is collected by the tank bottom liquid collecting groove and output. A plurality of isolation partitions 92 are fixedly installed inside the fine filter cavity frame 91 along the lengthwise center line direction. The isolation partitions 92 are vertical steel plates with flow guide holes, and the inner cavity of the fine filter cavity frame 91 is equally divided into a plurality of independent filter branch cavities 93. A vertical filter partition 94 with a curved structure is installed in each filter branch cavity 93, and the filter partition 94 is composed of a porous metal substrate and a molecular sieve filter membrane, which divides the corresponding filter branch cavity 93 into a central cylindrical inner layer filtrate area 95 and an annular outer peripheral flow guide area 96. The input end of the conveying pipe body 82 is swingably inserted into the distributor cavity of the distributor shell 81 through a rotating bearing, and the output end extends to the inner layer filtrate area 95. The side of the conveying pipe body 82 is hinged to the frame wall of the vertical filter partition 94 through a swing connecting rod 97 made of metal material, so as to realize the mechanical linkage of the pipe body and the partition. The adjacent conveying pipe bodies 82 are bolted through the arc-shaped fastening sheets 83 to enhance the overall rigidity. The top of the distributor shell 81 is provided with a stroke adjuster 85 (an electric or pneumatic push rod), and the driving end of the stroke adjuster 85 is connected to the top hinged points of the conveying pipe bodies 82 through a linkage support 86, so as to synchronously adjust the swing angle of the pipe bodies.

[0063] The bottom of the tertiary fine filter unit 9 adopts a double-layer structure design. The fine filter cavity frame 91 is fixedly connected to the base bottom plate 101, the base bottom plate 101 is elastically supported on the surface of the supporting bottom plate 102 through four groups of vibration isolation springs 103, and the supporting bottom plate 102 is welded to the base mounting plate 1. The counterweight balance bars 104 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the fine filter cavity frame 91, and high-frequency excitation devices 105 (electromagnetic or eccentric wheel driven) are arranged in the both ends of the bars to generate horizontal high-frequency micro-amplitude vibration.

[0064] The filtrate treated by the secondary filter unit 3 enters the distributor shell 81 and is uniformly distributed to each conveying pipe body 82. The stroke adjuster 85 drives the conveying pipe bodies 82 to periodically swing through the linkage support 86, and the output end of the conveying pipe bodies 82 moves dynamically in the inner layer filtrate area 95. The swing connecting rod 97 synchronously drives the vertical filter partition 94 to reciprocate and deflect in the inner layer filtrate area 95. The filtrate is injected into the inner layer filtrate area 95 from the output end of the conveying pipe body 82, and passes through the porous vertical filter partition 94 under the action of pressure. The impurities are intercepted by the molecular sieve filter membrane, and the purified liquid flows into the outer peripheral flow guide area 96 and is collected to the filter membrane plate layer at the bottom of the fine filter cavity frame 91 after terminal fine filtration, and is then output by the collecting device. When the high-frequency excitation device 105 operates, the horizontal vibration is transmitted to the fine filter cavity frame 91 through the counterweight balance bars 104, and the stable vibration frequency is maintained after the vibration is attenuated by the vibration isolation springs 103. The vibration energy effectively inhibits the deposition of impurities on the surface of the filter membrane, and improves the filtration efficiency.

[0065] The structure fuses dynamic distribution and vibration-enhanced filtration mechanism. The swingable design of the conveying pipe body 82 in the distributor housing 81 is combined with the stroke regulator 85 to regulate and realize the uniform distribution of the filtrate in three-dimensional space, adapt to the flow difference of different viscosity juices; the swing connecting rod 97 makes the vertical filter fence 94 periodically deflect, forming a periodic shear flow on the filter membrane surface, stripping the attached impurities; the multi-stage vibration isolation architecture precisely controls the vibration energy transmission path, ensuring that the horizontal vibration generated by the high-frequency exciter 105 only acts on the inside of the fine filtration cavity frame 91, destroying the adsorption force of impurities through inertial oscillation, and improving the filter membrane flux by more than 50%; the partition isolation design (isolation partition plate 92+outer peripheral flow guide area 96) of the filtration branch cavity 93 combined with the curved vertical filter fence 94 increases the effective filtration area by 30%, while optimizing the fluid turbulence level.

[0066] In this embodiment, the modular assembly composed of the fastening sheet 83 and the swingable conveying pipe body 82 supports quick disassembly and maintenance; the independent filtration branch cavity 93 formed by the isolation partition plate 92 can be cleaned or replaced online.
