Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coffee by - product recycling, and particularly relates to a device for recycling and utilizing coffee by - products. Background Technique
[0002] Coffee by - products refer to the by - products or wastes generated during the production or making process of coffee. Common coffee by - products include coffee grounds and coffee bean husks. Coffee grounds can be used as fertilizers or animal feeds, containing rich organic substances and nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are beneficial to plant growth. Coffee bean husks can be used as fillers or fuels, having certain heat - preservation and combustion properties.
[0003] The patent with publication number CN216941932U is a device for recycling and utilizing flash - extracted coffee grounds. The device for recycling and utilizing flash - extracted coffee grounds includes a gantry; a workbench fixedly installed inside the gantry; a discharging seat fixedly installed inside the gantry; an extrusion barrel fixedly installed on the top of the workbench; a pressing plate arranged above the extrusion barrel, and the pressing plate is adapted to the extrusion barrel; a hollow column fixedly installed on the top of the pressing plate; a lead screw movably installed on the top of the gantry, and the bottom end of the lead screw extends into the hollow column and is threadedly connected to the top of the hollow column.

[0004] Most of the existing recycling devices in the above - mentioned patent collect coffee grounds and directly dry them in a drying room. Although the coffee grounds can be finally dried to form coffee - ground cakes, the initial coffee grounds have more moisture. When drying them without pre - treatment, the drying time is invisibly prolonged, thereby reducing the drying efficiency. This application provides another implementation solution for the problems proposed in the above - mentioned patent. Content of the Utility Model

A cover plate 6 is movably installed at the bottom of the electric telescopic rod 5. The number of electric telescopic rods 5 is three, and the three electric telescopic rods 5 are evenly distributed between the cover plate 6 and the installation frame 3. An annular groove 13 with a T-shaped cross-section is opened inside the cover plate 6. A circular slider 14 is slidably installed inside the annular groove 13. The bottom of the electric telescopic rod 5 extends into the annular groove 13 and is fixedly connected to the circular slider 14, facilitating the sliding of the cover plate 6 on the electric telescopic rod 5. A snap ring 7 and a heating rod 8 are fixedly installed on the lower surface of the cover plate 6. A rectangular hollow tube 9 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the cover plate 6. A rectangular rod 10 inserted into the rectangular hollow tube 9 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 4. A limiting block 15 located inside the rectangular hollow tube 9 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rectangular rod 10. The shape of the limiting block 15 is adapted to the shape inside the rectangular hollow tube 9, and the surface of the limiting block 15 is in sliding contact with the inner surface of the rectangular hollow tube 9, which is beneficial to preventing the rectangular rod 10 from disengaging from the rectangular hollow tube 9. A conical hollow base 11 is fixedly installed inside the outer barrel 1. A mesh centrifugal barrel 12 is rotatably installed on the top of the conical hollow base 11. A snap ring sleeve 13 is fixedly installed on the top of the mesh centrifugal barrel 12. The snap ring 7 is adapted to the snap ring sleeve 18. The outer surface of the snap ring 7 is provided with teeth, and the inner side of the snap ring sleeve 18 is provided with tooth grooves, facilitating the connection of the cover plate 6 and the mesh centrifugal barrel 12 and facilitating the motor 4 to drive the mesh centrifugal barrel 12 to rotate.
[0025] A discharge pipe 16 with a valve on its surface is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mesh centrifugal barrel 12. The discharge pipe 16 is located inside the conical hollow base 11 and extends to the outer surface of the bottom of the outer barrel 1, facilitating the discharge of the materials inside the mesh centrifugal barrel 12. Two drain valves 17 are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the outer barrel 1, facilitating the discharge of the liquid inside the outer barrel 1.
[0026] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows:
[0027] During use, pour the coffee grounds to be dried into the grid centrifuge barrel 12. Drive the cover plate 6 to move downward through the electric telescopic rod 5. The rectangular rod 10 is pulled out from the rectangular hollow tube 9 until the snap ring 7 is snapped into the inner side of the snap ring sleeve 18, then the cover plate 6 can be covered on the top of the grid centrifuge barrel 12. At this time, the heating rod 8 is inserted into the coffee grounds. Start the motor 4. The motor 4 drives the rectangular rod 10 to rotate. The rectangular rod 10 drives the rectangular hollow tube 9 to rotate, and further enables the cover plate 6 to rotate at the bottom of the electric telescopic rod 5. While rotating, the cover plate 6 drives the grid centrifuge barrel 12 to rotate through the engagement of the snap ring 7 and the snap ring sleeve 18. The moisture inside the coffee grounds is thrown out to the outer barrel 1 through the mesh holes on the surface of the grid centrifuge barrel 12. At the same time, the heating rod 8 generates heat to heat and dry the inside of the coffee grounds.
