DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present invention clear and concise, the present invention omits detailed descriptions of known functions and known components.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present utility model discloses a honey filter, which is used to filter honey. The honey filter includes: a circular collecting tank 10, a filter cartridge 20, a circular filter tank 40, a roller body 30, a driving mechanism, a U-shaped retaining frame 70, and a bracket 60.

[0037] The circular collection trough 10 is fixed to the upper portion of a bracket 60. The bracket 60 has a plurality of legs for supporting the circular collection trough 10 and the components thereon. A filter cartridge 20 is disposed above the circular collection trough 10. The filter cartridge 20 has a closed bottom and an open top. The wall of the filter cartridge 20 is covered with first filter holes 21. Honey to be filtered is poured into the filter cartridge 20 from the top. The honey in the filter cartridge 20 flows from the inner side of the wall through the first filter holes 21 to the outer side of the wall, thereby forming a first filter. The circular filter trough 40 is located between the bottom of the filter cartridge 20 and the circular collection trough 10. The bottom of the circular filter trough 40 is covered with second filter holes 41. The aperture of the second filter holes 41 is smaller than the aperture of the first filter holes 21. The radial dimension of the circular filter trough 40 is larger than the radial dimension of the filter cartridge 20, and the radial dimension of the circular filter trough 40 is smaller than the radial dimension of the circular collection trough 10. After completing the first filtration step through the filter cartridge 20, the honey flows down the outer cylinder wall and falls into the circular filter trough 40. The honey in the circular filter trough 40 then flows out through the second filter holes 41 and falls into the circular collection trough 10, thus completing the second filtration step. The edge of the circular collection trough 10 is provided with a discharge port 11. Honey that has fallen into the circular collection trough 10 is discharged through the discharge port 11 and ultimately collected in a container. In some preferred configurations, the bottom of the circular collection trough 10 is configured as an inclined surface that slopes toward the discharge port 11. This guides the flow of honey and minimizes the accumulation of honey in the circular collection trough 10.

[0038] The U-shaped retainer 70 includes an integrally formed crossbeam 72 and arms 71 on either side of the crossbeam 72. The lower ends of the two arms 71 are fixed to the edge of the circular collection trough 10, thereby securing the circular collection trough 10. Two rollers 30 are disposed radially outward from and parallel to the filter cartridge 20. The lower end shafts of the rollers 30 pass through the circular filter trough 40, forming a rotatable engagement with the circular collection trough 10. The upper end shafts 32 of the rollers 30 pass through the crossbeam 72 of the U-shaped retainer 70, forming a rotatable engagement with the U-shaped retainer 70. Thus, each roller 30 is capable of rotation. The outer circumference of each roller 30 is covered with radially extending bristles 31. These bristles 31 are configured to penetrate the first filter holes 21 of the filter cartridge 20 to remove obstructions (e.g., honey crystals, impurities) trapped therein.

[0039] The drive mechanism includes a motor 51, a driving gear 52, and a driven gear 53. The motor 51 is mounted at the bottom of the circular collection tank 10 and connected to the filter cartridge 20. The motor 51 is used to drive the filter cartridge 20 to rotate. The driving gear 52 is formed on the upper portion of the filter cartridge 20. Preferably, the filter cartridge 20 and the driving gear 52 are integrally formed. The driven gear 53 is fixedly mounted on the end shaft 32 at the upper end of the roller body 30 and meshes with the driving gear 52. Thus, when the motor 51 drives the filter cartridge 20 to rotate, the driving gear 52 and the driven gear 53 mesh, causing the roller body 30 to rotate in the opposite direction relative to the filter cartridge 20. This allows the bristles 31 to continuously penetrate into the first filter holes 21 in any circumferential area of ​​the filter cartridge 20 wall to remove obstructions retained in the first filter holes 21, thereby preventing honey from blocking the first filter holes 21 to a certain extent and improving filtration efficiency. In addition, the rotation of the filter cartridge 20 causes the inner side of the cartridge wall of the filter cartridge 20 and the honey to move relative to each other, thereby preventing the honey from blocking the first filter holes 21 to a certain extent.

[0040] The above honey filter has at least the following advantages:

[0041] 1. A roller body 30 with bristles 31 is provided on the outside of the filter cartridge 20 , and the bristles 31 penetrate into the first filter holes 21 of the filter cartridge 20 , so as to improve the filtration efficiency of the filter cartridge 20 for honey.

[0042] 2. By adding a circular filter tank 40 and cooperating with the filter cartridge 20, double filtration of honey is achieved to improve the quality of honey.
