Although the grain particles will be crushed, degraded and become smaller during this process, it is still difficult to avoid some insoluble matter that affects the clarity of the saccharification solution. The solution needs to be filtered out, but most of the existing filtration structures have a single filtration method, which is either easy to clog or has poor filtration effect. In addition, the main structure for filtration is deep in the equipment, which is not convenient for disassembly and cleaning. Summary of the invention

[0006] Preferably, the lower surface of the placement ring has a coaxial inner edge, and the outer wall of the inner edge is suitable for fitting with the inner wall of the support platform, which can prevent the filter assembly from moving in the horizontal direction and improve the stability of the filter assembly after configuration.
[0007] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the placement ring, a fitting plate is fixedly connected between the handle and the placement ring, and a hanging groove is formed between the upper surface of the placement ring, the inner wall of the fitting plate and the lower surface of the handle, so as to facilitate lifting the entire filter assembly by hand or a hook.
[0008] As a preference, the handle and the bonding plate are both arc-shaped, the inner edge of the handle is low and the outer edge is high, and the outer side surface of the bonding plate is bonded to the inner wall of the cone to reduce unnecessary gaps and avoid accumulation of insoluble matter.

[0028] like Figure 1-8The saccharification system filter tank shown in the figure includes a funnel 2 with a large upper end and a small lower end. The funnel 2 has an inverted truncated cone-shaped cone 201. The upper end of the cone 201 has a coaxial flange 202. The inner and outer walls of the flange 202 are both cylindrical surfaces. A slot 204 is formed between the inner wall of the flange 202 and the upper end surface of the cone 201 for engaging with the saccharification feed tank above. The disassembly and assembly operation can be quickly realized by plugging and unplugging. The inner and outer walls of the cone 201 are both conical surfaces. The upper end of the cone has a large diameter and the lower end has a small diameter. The inner wall of the cone 201 has a supporting platform 203. The upper surface of the supporting platform 203 is horizontal and the inner wall is vertical. In fact, the inner wall of the cone 201 has a plurality of coaxial supporting platforms 203, which are arranged equidistantly in the upper and lower directions. Due to the limitation of the conical inner wall of the cone 201, the diameter of the supporting platform 203 gradually decreases from top to bottom. A filter assembly 3 is placed above the supporting platform 203, which is the main component for realizing the filtering function.
[0029] The filter assembly 3 includes a horizontal placement ring 301, the lower surface of the placement ring 301 is a horizontal plane, the lower surface of the placement ring 301 can be fitted with the upper surface of the support platform 203, the lower surface of the placement ring 301 has a coaxial inner edge 306, the outer wall of the inner edge 306 can be fitted with the inner wall of the support platform 203, the interior of the placement ring 301 is provided with a filter plate 305 for intercepting insoluble matter, the filter assembly 3 has multiple, usually corresponding to the number of the support platform 203, making full use of the support platform 203 to achieve refined layered filtration, specifically: the filter plates 305 are arranged equidistantly in the up and down directions, and the further downward, the smaller the volume of matter allowed to pass through the filter plates 305 of the filter assembly 3, so that different volumes of insoluble matter will be retained on different filter plates 305, which is convenient for later recycling in the process equipment.
[0030] A handle 302 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the placement ring 301, and the staff can grasp the handle 302 to lift the entire filter assembly 3. A fitting plate 303 is fixedly connected between the handle 302 and the placement ring 301, so that the handle 302 and the placement ring 301 are suspended at a certain height, and the outer side surface of the fitting plate 303 fits with the inner wall of the cone 201 to reduce unnecessary accumulation of insoluble matter in the gap. A hanging groove 304 is formed between the upper surface of the placement ring 301, the inner wall of the fitting plate 303 and the lower surface of the handle 302, and fingers and hooks can be put into the hanging groove 304. The handle 302 and the fitting plate 303 are both arc-shaped, and the inner edge of the handle 302 is low and the outer edge is high, that is, the upper surface of the handle 302 is a cone surface, which can reduce the liquid accumulation on the upper surface of the handle 302.
[0031] The lower end of the cone 201 is fixedly connected to a coaxial storage tank 1 for storing the filtered solution. A discharge port 101 penetrating the inner and outer walls is provided at the bottom of the storage tank 1, through which the filtered solution is discharged. The bottom surface of the storage tank 1 has an extension pipe 102 located at the lower end of the discharge port 101. A valve body 103 is provided in the extension pipe 102. Generally, an electrically controlled ball valve is used to control the opening and closing of the extension pipe 102. The discharge speed is controlled by controlling the opening of the inner diameter of the extension pipe 102. The lower end of the extension pipe 102 is a connecting end 104 for connecting to an external drainage pipe. The outer side surface of the cone 201 is fixedly connected to a frame 4 for stabilizing the entire filter tank. The lower end of the frame 4 is lower than the bottom of the connecting end 104, leaving sufficient space for installing the drainage pipe below the connecting end 104.
[0032] Working principle: before use, first put the clean filter components 3 into the cone 201 in order from small to large, and then put the saccharification liquid supply tank on the upper end of the funnel 2. During operation, the valve body 103 in the extension tube 102 is in a normally open state, and the solid-liquid mixture to be filtered is poured from the saccharification liquid supply tank into the funnel 2. After being filtered layer by layer by the filter components 3, a solution free of insoluble matter is finally obtained and remains in the storage tank 1. Due to the different interception accuracy of the filter components 3, the fineness of the insoluble matter left on the filter plates 305 at different heights is also different. The filter plate 305 with large filter holes at the top is not easy to be blocked, and the filter plate 305 with small filter holes at the bottom can intercept fine insoluble matter. In addition, insoluble matter of different volumes can enter equipment with different processing degrees when being recycled, which is beneficial to improving the saccharification efficiency.
