Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fruit and vegetable juice production technology, specifically to a sedimentation device for fruit and vegetable juice production. Background Technology

[0002] Separating sediment during fruit and vegetable juice production is crucial for improving quality and stability. While naturally settling sediment is rich in fiber and pulp, it severely impacts the juice's clear appearance and smooth texture, giving the impression of staleness or spoilage. Removing these unstable components allows the juice to maintain its clear, transparent color and prevents it from separating and spoiling during its shelf life. This satisfies market demands for visual appeal and pure taste while preventing consumer aversion caused by bottom sediment. It is a key process step in ensuring product value and extending stability.

[0003] While centrifugal separation devices are widely used in existing fruit and vegetable juice processing equipment, they still have significant technical shortcomings in practical application. Traditional centrifugal separation equipment typically relies solely on filter screens or baskets for solid-liquid separation of fruit and vegetable juices. After prolonged operation, impurities such as fruit pulp fibers and pectin easily adhere to and clog the filter mesh, leading to a continuous decrease in filtration throughput and consequently reduced separation and sedimentation efficiency. To address this issue, some equipment has added fixed scrapers or brushes, attempting to maintain filtration performance by continuously scraping away impurities accumulated on the filter surface. However, these fixed scrapers remain in constant contact with the filter during operation, repeatedly scraping the filter surface regardless of whether the scraper is rising or falling. This continuous scraping not only fails to effectively direct the removal of scraped impurities but also causes fruit pulp fragments to rub back and forth between the filter and the scraper. Some fine particles are pressed back into the mesh or move along the filter surface and re-adhere, causing secondary pollution and residue. Furthermore, prolonged constant pressure contact accelerates filter wear and shortens the equipment's lifespan. Therefore, the existing technology lacks a separation and precipitation structure that can achieve directional and intermittent scraping of impurities during centrifugation, avoiding residue and damage caused by repeated scraping.

[0004] In view of this, we propose a sedimentation device for fruit and vegetable juice production. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sedimentation device for fruit and vegetable juice production, which solves the problem in existing centrifugal separation equipment where the fixed scraper continuously contacts the filter screen, causing impurities to repeatedly rub against and remain, and accelerating the wear of the filter screen.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A sedimentation device for fruit and vegetable juice production includes a sedimentation chamber, a support frame, and a chamber cover. A liquid inlet pipe is inserted into and fixedly connected to the top of the chamber cover, and a servo motor is fixedly connected to the top of the chamber cover. The device also includes a separation and sedimentation assembly for improving the sedimentation and separation efficiency of impurities in the fruit and vegetable juice; a driven assembly for assisting the separation and sedimentation assembly in separating impurities in the fruit and vegetable juice and preventing impurity residue. The separation and sedimentation assembly includes a rotating shaft that passes through the chamber cover and is rotatably connected to it. The rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the servo motor. A rotating frame is inserted into and fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft inside the sedimentation chamber. A reinforcing rib is fixedly connected to the inner side of the rotating frame. A filter screen frame is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating frame, and a separation filter screen is provided on the inner side of the filter screen frame. A liquid chamber is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sedimentation chamber via a clamp. A connecting column is fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid chamber. A conical hopper is fixedly connected to the liquid chamber via the connecting column. A fixing frame is fixedly connected to the inner side of the conical hopper, and a reciprocating screw is inserted into and fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing frame.

[0008] Preferably, the reciprocating lead screw is threaded through and connected to a reciprocating sleeve, a fixed post is fixedly connected to the surface of the reciprocating sleeve, a telescopic rod is inserted into and slidably connected to the fixed post, and a coarse scraper ring is fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic rod.

[0009] Preferably, the inner side of the coarse scraping ring is provided with an anti-detachment groove, and the number of coarse scraping rings is four sets, and the four sets of coarse scraping rings are arranged in a circumferential array with the center line of the rotating shaft as the axis.

[0010] Preferably, the reinforcing rib passes through the coarse scraping ring, and a fine scraping ring is inserted into the anti-detachment groove opened on the inner side of every two sets of coarse scraping rings.

[0011] Preferably, an anti-detachment plate is fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod located inside the fixed column, and an elastic element is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod. One end of the elastic element is fixedly connected to the surface of the anti-detachment plate, and the other end of the elastic element is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed column.

[0012] Preferably, a drain pipe is inserted into and fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid tank, and a drain valve is provided on the drain pipe.

[0013] Preferably, the driven component includes a connecting rod that passes through a fixed column and is slidably connected to the fixed column. A connecting ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod, and the connecting ring is passed through by a reciprocating lead screw.

[0014] Preferably, a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner side of the connecting ring, and an elastic pull rope is wound and fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod.

[0015] Preferably, the inner side of the connecting rod is provided with a movable groove, and the end of the elastic pull rope away from the rotating rod is located in the movable groove. At the same time, the end of the elastic pull rope away from the rotating rod is inserted into the fixed post and fixedly connected to the surface of the anti-detachment plate.

[0016] Preferably, a spiral spring is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod, and the other end of the spiral spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring.

[0017] By employing the above technical solution, the present invention provides a sedimentation device for fruit and vegetable juice production. It possesses at least the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This invention drives the rotating frame and the separating filter to rotate at high speed through a rotating shaft, which generates a strong centrifugal force on the inside of the separating filter. Under the action of centrifugal force, the clarified liquid quickly passes through the filter and enters the liquid chamber and is discharged through the drain pipe, while the pulp and impurities are effectively blocked by the separating filter, realizing the rapid separation of fruit and vegetable juice from impurities, significantly improving the sedimentation separation efficiency, and avoiding the problem of long time consumption in the traditional static sedimentation method.

[0019] 2. In this invention, a reinforcing rib passes through the coarse scraping ring and drives the reciprocating screw sleeve to rotate and move on the reciprocating screw. When the reciprocating screw sleeve moves downward, the elastic element tightens the anti-detachment plate, causing the telescopic rod to push the coarse scraping ring to fit against the inner side of the separation filter screen. The coarse scraping ring rotates with the rotating frame and scrapes away the pulp and impurities attached to the filter screen downward. When the reciprocating screw sleeve moves upward, the elastic pull rope pulls the anti-detachment plate, causing the elastic element to stretch. The telescopic rod drives the coarse scraping ring slightly away from the separation filter screen, ensuring that the coarse scraping ring only scrapes during the downward stroke, effectively avoiding pulp residue and secondary pollution caused by repeated scraping.

[0020] 3. This invention features an anti-detachment groove on the inner side of the coarse scraper ring and the insertion of a fine scraper ring. While the coarse scraper ring performs the main scraping of the separation filter screen, the fine scraper ring further cleans the fine residue on the filter screen surface. Combined with the linkage control of the elastic pull rope and the spiral spring in the driven component, the scraping mechanism automatically switches between the contact and separation states during its up-and-down reciprocating motion. This ensures the stability of the scraping force and prevents clogging caused by repeated friction of fruit pulp on the filter screen, significantly improving the long-term reliability and separation effect of the equipment.

[0033] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] A sedimentation device for fruit and vegetable juice production, such as Figure 1 - Figure 10As shown, the system includes a sedimentation chamber 1, a support 4, and a chamber cover 5. An inlet pipe 6 is inserted into and fixedly connected to the top of the chamber cover 5, and a servo motor 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the chamber cover 5. It also includes a separation sedimentation assembly 2 to improve the sedimentation and separation efficiency of impurities in the fruit and vegetable juice; a driven assembly 3 to assist the separation sedimentation assembly 2 in separating impurities in the fruit and vegetable juice and to prevent impurity residue. The separation sedimentation assembly 2 includes a rotating shaft 21, which passes through the chamber cover 5 and is rotatably connected to it. The rotating shaft 21 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 7 and is located within the sedimentation chamber 1. A rotating frame 22 is inserted into and fixedly connected to one end of the settling tank 1. A reinforcing rib 23 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the rotating frame 22. A filter screen frame 24 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating frame 22. A separation filter screen 25 is provided on the inner side of the filter screen frame 24. A liquid tank 26 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the settling tank 1 by a clamp 29. A connecting column 28 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid tank 26. A conical hopper 27 is fixedly connected to the liquid tank 26 by the connecting column 28. A fixing frame 210 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the conical hopper 27. A reciprocating screw 211 is inserted into and fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing frame 210. A reciprocating screw sleeve 212 is threaded through and connected to the reciprocating screw sleeve 212. A fixing column 213 is fixedly connected to the surface of the reciprocating screw sleeve 212. A telescopic rod 214 is inserted into and slidably connected to the fixing column 213. A coarse scraper ring 216 is fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic rod 214. The inner side of the coarse scraping ring 216 is provided with an anti-detachment groove 217. There are four sets of coarse scraping rings 216, and the four sets of coarse scraping rings 216 are arranged in a circumferential array with the center line of the rotating shaft 21 as the axis. The reinforcing rib 23 passes through the coarse scraping ring 216, and a fine scraping ring 218 is inserted into the anti-detachment groove 217 opened on the inner side of every two sets of coarse scraping rings 216. An anti-detachment plate 221 is fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod 214 located inside the fixed column 213. An elastic element 215 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 214. One end of the elastic element 215 is fixedly connected to the surface of the anti-detachment plate 221, and the other end of the elastic element 215 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed column 213. A drain pipe 219 is inserted into and fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid tank 26. A drain valve 220 is provided on the drain pipe 219. The fruit and vegetable juice entering the sedimentation chamber 1 is subjected to centrifugal force on the inner side of the separating filter 25. Impurities and pulp in the liquid are blocked by the separating filter 25, while the clarified liquid passes through the separating filter 25 under the drive of centrifugal force and flows to the inner wall of the sedimentation chamber 1. Finally, it flows into the liquid chamber 26 at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 1, which is fixedly connected by a clamp 29. A connecting column 28 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid chamber 26. A conical hopper 27 is fixedly connected to the liquid chamber 26 through the connecting column 28. The conical hopper 27 is used to collect the liquid. A drain pipe 219 inserted and fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid chamber 26 and a drain valve 220 set on the drain pipe 219 are used to control the discharge of the clarified fruit and vegetable juice.

[0035] It is also worth noting that, such as Figure 7 - Figure 10As shown, the driven component 3 includes a connecting rod 31, which passes through the fixed post 213 and is slidably connected to the fixed post 213. A connecting ring 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 31, and the connecting ring 36 is passed through by a reciprocating lead screw 211. A rotating rod 34 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the connecting ring 36, and an elastic pull rope 33 is wound and fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 34. When the reciprocating screw sleeve 212 moves upward, the fixed column 213 drives the connecting rod 31 and the connecting ring 36 to move upward synchronously. Since one end of the elastic pull rope 33 is fixed on the anti-detachment plate 221, the elastic pull rope 33 is tightened and overcomes the torque of the spiral spring 35 to be released from the rotating rod 34. At the same time, the elastic pull rope 33 pulls the anti-detachment plate 221 to stretch the elastic element 215. The anti-detachment plate 221 drives the telescopic rod 214 to retract into the fixed column 213, so that the coarse scraping ring 216 is slightly away from the inner side of the separating filter screen 25. However, the distance that the coarse scraping ring 216 moves away is designed so that the reinforcing rib 23 remains inside the coarse scraping ring 216 and will not come off. Therefore, when the reinforcing rib 23 rotates with the rotating frame 22, it can still drive the coarse scraping ring 216 to rotate.

[0036] A movable groove 32 is provided on the inner side of the connecting rod 31. The end of the elastic pull rope 33 away from the rotating rod 34 is located in the movable groove 32, while the end of the elastic pull rope 33 away from the rotating rod 34 is inserted into the fixed post 213 and fixedly connected to the surface of the anti-detachment plate 221. A spiral spring 35 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 34, and the other end of the spiral spring 35 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring 36. During the entire upward movement, due to the small gap between the coarse scraping ring 216 and the separating filter screen 25, the coarse scraping ring 216 will not scrape the surface of the separating filter screen 25, thereby avoiding repeated friction of the scraped fruit pulp, which would cause residue or re-attachment to the filter screen. Thus, as the reciprocating screw sleeve 212 moves up and down continuously on the reciprocating screw 211, the coarse scraping ring 216 only closely adheres to the separating filter screen 25 for efficient scraping when moving downwards, and automatically performs micro-separation when moving upwards to avoid ineffective scraping. At the same time, combined with the centrifugal separation effect, impurities and pulp in the fruit and vegetable juice are effectively separated and settle downwards, and finally the clear fruit and vegetable juice is discharged through the drain pipe 219.

[0037] In the sedimentation device for fruit and vegetable juice production of the present invention, when the equipment is started, the fruit and vegetable juice and flocculant enter the sedimentation chamber 1 through the inlet pipe 6 fixedly connected to the top of the chamber cover 5. At the same time, the servo motor 7 fixedly connected to the top of the chamber cover 5 drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. The rotating shaft 21 passes through the chamber cover 5 and is rotatably connected to the chamber cover 5. One end of the rotating shaft 21 located inside the sedimentation chamber 1 is inserted into and fixedly connected to a rotating frame 22. A reinforcing rib 23 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the rotating frame 22. Therefore, the rotating frame 22 drives the reinforcing rib 23 to rotate synchronously. A filter screen frame 24 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating frame 22. A separation filter screen 25 is provided on the inner side of the filter screen frame 24. Therefore, the separation filter screen 25 rotates with the rotation. The frame 22 rotates together, and the fruit and vegetable juice entering the sedimentation chamber 1 is subjected to centrifugal force on the inner side of the separating filter screen 25. Impurities and pulp in the liquid are blocked by the separating filter screen 25, while the clarified liquid passes through the separating filter screen 25 under the drive of centrifugal force and flows to the inner wall of the sedimentation chamber 1. Finally, it flows into the liquid chamber 26 at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 1, which is fixedly connected by clamp 29. A connecting column 28 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid chamber 26, and a conical hopper 27 is fixedly connected to the liquid chamber 26 through the connecting column 28. The conical hopper 27 is used to collect the liquid. A drain pipe 219 inserted and fixedly connected to the inner side of the liquid chamber 26 and a drain valve 220 set on the drain pipe 219 are used to control the discharge of the clarified fruit and vegetable juice. As the rotating frame 22 rotates, the reinforcing rib 23 passes through the coarse scraping ring 216. Since there are four sets of coarse scraping rings 216 arranged in a circular array around the center line of the rotating shaft 21, the rotation of the reinforcing rib 23 will drive the coarse scraping ring 216 to rotate. The coarse scraping ring 216 is connected to the reciprocating threaded sleeve 212 through the telescopic rod 214 and the fixed post 213. Specifically, the telescopic rod 214 is inserted into and slidably connected to the fixed post 213, and the end of the telescopic rod 214 is fixedly connected to the coarse scraping ring 216. The column 213 is fixedly connected to the surface of the reciprocating threaded sleeve 212. The reciprocating threaded sleeve 212 is threadedly connected to the reciprocating screw 211 inserted and fixedly connected to the inner fixing bracket 210 of the conical bucket 27. Therefore, the rotation of the coarse scraper ring 216 will drive the reciprocating threaded sleeve 212 to rotate on the reciprocating screw 211 through the telescopic rod 214 and the fixed column 213. At the same time, since the reciprocating screw 211 is fixed, the reciprocating threaded sleeve 212 will also move up and down along the thread trajectory of the reciprocating screw 211 while rotating.When the reciprocating sleeve 212 moves downward, the anti-detachment plate 221 fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod 214 inside the fixed column 213 and the elastic element 215 sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 214 play their roles. One end of the elastic element 215 is fixedly connected to the surface of the anti-detachment plate 221 and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed column 213. During the downward movement, the elastic element 215 pulls the anti-detachment plate 221 tight, so that the telescopic rod 214 always pushes the coarse scraping ring 216 outward, so that the coarse scraping ring 216 fits tightly against the inner side of the separating filter screen 25. As the coarse scraping ring 216 rotates and moves downward, the coarse scraping ring 216 scrapes away the pulp and impurities trapped on the inner side of the separating filter screen 25 downward. At the same time, a fine scraping ring 218 is inserted into the anti-detachment groove 217 opened on the inner side of each pair of coarse scraping rings 216. The fine scraping ring 218 can further clean the fine impurities remaining on the surface of the separating filter screen 25.

[0038] When the reciprocating sleeve 212 moves upward, the driven component 3 starts to work. When the reciprocating sleeve 212 moves upward, the fixed column 213 drives the connecting rod 31 and the connecting ring 36 to move upward synchronously. Since one end of the elastic pull rope 33 is fixed on the anti-detachment plate 221, the elastic pull rope 33 is tightened and overcomes the torque of the spiral spring 35 to be released from the rotating rod 34. At the same time, the elastic pull rope 33 pulls the anti-detachment plate 221 to stretch the elastic element 215. The anti-detachment plate 221 drives the telescopic rod 214 to retract into the fixed column 213, so that the coarse scraping ring 216 is slightly away from the inner side of the separation filter screen 25. However, the distance that the coarse scraping ring 216 moves away is designed so that the reinforcing rib 23 remains inside the coarse scraping ring 216 and will not come off. Therefore, when the reinforcing rib 23 rotates with the rotating frame 22, it can still drive the coarse scraping ring 216 to rotate. During the entire upward movement, due to the tiny gap between the coarse scraping ring 216 and the separating filter screen 25, the coarse scraping ring 216 does not scrape the surface of the separating filter screen 25, thus avoiding repeated friction of the scraped fruit pulp, which could lead to residue or re-adhesion on the filter screen. Thus, as the reciprocating screw sleeve 212 continuously moves up and down on the reciprocating screw 211, the coarse scraping ring 216 only tightly contacts the separating filter screen 25 for efficient scraping when moving downwards, and automatically separates at a micro-distance when moving upwards to avoid ineffective scraping. Simultaneously, combined with centrifugal separation, impurities and fruit pulp in the fruit and vegetable juice are effectively separated and settle downwards, ultimately being discharged through the drain pipe 219 as clear fruit and vegetable juice. The scraped impurities accumulate at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 1 or are discharged through periodic cleaning, thereby achieving a complete working process that improves the sedimentation and separation efficiency of impurities in the fruit and vegetable juice and avoids impurity residue.
