Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of beverage processing, and more particularly to a fresh squeezing device for processing fruit and vegetable beverages. Background Art

[0002] Fruit and vegetable beverages are beverages that are made from fresh or refrigerated fruits and vegetables and are made into ready-to-drink beverages after a series of processing steps, including washing, sorting, juicing, blending, sterilization, and filling. These beverages typically contain fruit and vegetable juice, and sometimes ingredients such as water, sugar, acidifiers, spices, and stabilizers are added to adjust the taste and flavor and ensure product stability and quality. Juicing is the most critical step in the processing of fruit and vegetable beverages. People usually use fresh-squeezing equipment for processing to extract juice from fresh fruits and vegetables. Such equipment is generally efficient, convenient, and hygienic, ensuring that the extracted fruit and vegetable juice retains its natural nutrients and taste.

[0003] In the prior art, for example, a patent with application number CN209106923U discloses: a vegetable juicer, wherein a temperature regulating tube is provided on the outside of the body, and the temperature inside the body can be adjusted as needed to ensure the freshness of the juice, and the juice collecting plate includes an end juice collecting plate and a central juice collecting plate, and there are two end juice collecting plates. The central juice collecting plate is arranged between the end juice collecting plates, which can form a uniform pressure distribution in the entire filter channel and reduce the problem of uneven extrusion. An annular cutter is provided on the drive shaft near one end of the feed port, which can be pre-treated before extrusion to improve the juicing efficiency. The vegetable juicer has the advantages of uniform extrusion and good juicing efficiency, and has broad market prospects.

[0004] Although this device can squeeze juice from raw fruits and vegetables, it cannot be used repeatedly to squeeze juice. If this device is used continuously to squeeze juice from fruits and vegetables, residue will continue to accumulate inside the machine body. The accumulated residue not only affects the normal operation of the machine, but also affects the juice output. Therefore, it is necessary to design a new fresh-squeezing device for fruit and vegetable beverage processing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0033] See also Figures 1 to 6 Disclosed is a fresh-squeezing device for processing fruit and vegetable beverages, comprising a support base 1, a feeding mechanism 2 fixed to the support base 1, a grinding mechanism 3 rotatably mounted within the support base 1 for grinding, and a chopping mechanism 4 rotatably mounted within the feeding mechanism 2 for cutting. The chopping mechanism 4 and the grinding mechanism 3 cooperate to act on the raw fruits and vegetables, effectively chopping and grinding the raw fruits and vegetables, thereby fully extracting the fruit and vegetable juice therefrom. A grinding hopper 13 is provided within the support base 1. The grinding hopper 13 is funnel-shaped with a large upper opening and a small lower opening. The funnel-shaped design of the grinding hopper 13 allows the semi-finished fruits and vegetables to be gradually ground.

[0034] The grinding mechanism 3 includes a grinding wheel 31 rotatably mounted within the grinding bucket 13, a support shaft 32 rotatably mounted at the bottom center of the grinding wheel 31, and a drive shaft 33 rotatably mounted at the bottom center of the support shaft 32. The drive shaft 33 extends to the bottom of the support base 1, and a first motor 34 connected to the drive shaft 33 is also fixed to the bottom of the support base 1. The rotation limit of the grinding wheel 31 and the fixed limit of the grinding bucket 13 enable the semi-finished fruits and vegetables to be effectively ground. The drive shaft 33 is also mounted on the outside of the drive shaft 33, and a juice receiving tray 12 is fixed to the support base 1. The support base 1 also has a juice outlet 11 corresponding to the position of the juice receiving tray 12. The combination of the juice receiving tray 12 and the juice outlet 11 allows the grounded fruit and vegetable mixture to be collected.

[0035] The feeding mechanism 2 includes a feeding hopper 21 fixed on the support base 1, a feeding box 22 fixed on the feeding hopper 21 and a feeding port 221 opened on the feeding box 22; raw fruits and vegetables are fed from the feeding port 221 and a series of fresh squeezing processing operations are performed.

[0036] The shredding mechanism 4 includes a pair of shredding shafts 41 rotatably disposed within the feed box 22, and a driving cutter 42 and a driven cutter 46, respectively, disposed on the shredding shafts 41. The driving cutter 42 and the driven cutter 46 are arranged in an alternating pattern. The alternating rotation of the driving cutter 42 and the driven cutter 46 effectively shreds the raw fruits and vegetables. The shredding mechanism 4 also includes a driving gear 43 and a driven gear 44, respectively fixed to the shredding shafts 41. The driving gear 43 meshes with the driven gear 44. A second motor 45 connected to the shredding shafts 41 is also fixed to the outside of the feed box 22. The driving gear 43 and the driven gear 44 cooperate to achieve synchronous rotation of the driving cutter 42 and the driven cutter 46.

[0037] The feeding mechanism 2 also includes cleaning teeth 23 equidistantly installed on both sides of the feeding port 221. The cleaning teeth 23 are fixed downward and extend into the active cutter 42 and the driven cutter 46. The cleaning teeth 23 can effectively clean the active cutter 42 and the driven cutter 46 to ensure the chopping effect.

[0038] When implementing the device of the present application, first start the second motor 45 and the first motor 34; the second motor 45 drives the shredding shaft 41 to rotate, the driving gear 43 rotates synchronously, and drives the driven gear 44 meshing therewith to rotate, thereby realizing the staggered rotation of the active cutter 42 and the driven cutter 46 in opposite directions, and the first motor 34 drives the grinding wheel 31 to rotate through the driving shaft 33 and the support shaft 32; then, the raw fruits and vegetables to be freshly squeezed are put into the device from the feeding port 221, and the fruits and vegetables are squeezed and chopped under the joint action of the active cutter 42 and the driven cutter 46, and the chopped semi-finished fruits and vegetables fall onto the grinding wheel 31; in order to prevent the chopped fruits and vegetables from getting stuck on the active cutter 42 The cleaning teeth 23 located between the active and passive cutters 46 can promptly clean the gap between the active and passive cutters 42, 46, during operation, ensuring effective chopping. Then, under the combined action of the curved surface of the grinding wheel 31 and the circumferential force of its rotation, the semi-finished fruits and vegetables fall into the gap between the grinding bucket 13 and the grinding wheel 31, and continue to descend under the action of gravity. During this descent, the gap between the grinding bucket 13 and the grinding wheel 31 continuously shrinks, gradually crushing the semi-finished fruits and vegetables and releasing juice. Finally, a mixture of fruit and vegetable juice and residue falls onto the inclined juice receiving tray 12 and flows out of the juice outlet 11. The staff only needs to collect the mixture and filter out the residue to obtain relatively pure fruit and vegetable juice. The device of the present application uses a shredding mechanism 4 and a grinding mechanism 3 to cooperate with the raw fruits and vegetables, which can effectively chop and grind the raw fruits and vegetables, so that the fruit and vegetable juice therein can be fully squeezed out, thereby improving the utilization rate of fruits and vegetables; moreover, this device can also continuously squeeze a large amount of fruits and vegetables freshly. By continuously adding raw fruits and vegetables, the fruits and vegetables are chopped and ground, and the residue and fruit and vegetable juice are discharged, avoiding the accumulation of residue in the device and ensuring the continuous fresh squeezing operation of the device. In addition, the second motor 45 and the first motor 34 used in the device of the present application are both existing technologies, and the specific working principles will not be repeated in this technical solution.
