Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plant protein production technology, and in particular to a waste recycling processor for plant protein production. Background Technology

[0002] Plant protein production refers to the process of extracting, processing, and obtaining plant protein products from plant raw materials. Plant proteins mainly come from various plants such as legumes, grains, and oil crops. The purpose of production is to obtain plant proteins with high nutritional value that can be applied in many fields such as food, feed, and medicine. During plant protein extraction, it is difficult to achieve complete utilization of the raw materials. When centrifuging the protein solution, precipitates and supernatants are produced. The supernatant may contain small amounts of unrecoverable proteins, sugars, and other components. If these impurities and residual components are not further processed, they become waste. This waste is difficult to collect, and with technological advancements, waste recycling has emerged.

[0003] Most plant protein production involves placing processed crushed soybeans into a filter, then starting a motor to rotate the filter. This causes the soybeans to tumble and roll within the filter, gradually moving them towards the edge. This centrifugal force can separate the components inside the soybeans to a certain extent, thus achieving the effect of extracting plant protein.

[0004] In existing technologies, during the centrifugal production of some plant proteins, the proteins may aggregate due to physical or chemical factors. For example, when the pH of the solution approaches the isoelectric point of the plant protein, the electrostatic repulsion between protein molecules decreases, causing them to aggregate and form larger aggregates. These aggregates may exceed the size of the feed inlet, thus clogging the feed channel and causing production interruptions. Therefore, to address these shortcomings, a plant protein production waste recycling processor has been proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a plant protein production waste recycling processor. It aims to improve the problems of ineffective collection and treatment of waste from the plant protein production process and the blockage of the feeding channel caused by protein aggregation, which affects the continuity of production.

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

[0008] The feeding mechanism includes multiple support frames, with a support plate fixedly connected to one side of each support frame. A connecting component is rotatably connected to the top of the support plate, and an auger rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting component. An auger blade is fixedly connected to the outside of the auger rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the mounting mechanism includes a connecting ring, the connecting ring having multiple bolts internally threadedly connected, two washers externally slidably connected to the bolts, a strong spring fixedly connected to the adjacent side of the two washers, and a nut externally threadedly connected to the bolts.

[0010] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a support rod, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the top end of the base plate, and a carrying plate is fixedly connected to the left side of the support rod, the top end of which is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the electric push rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting assembly includes a transmission rod, the top end of which is fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor, and multiple connecting rods are fixedly connected to the outside of the transmission rod, with the multiple connecting rods fixedly connected to the inside of the filter barrel.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting assembly includes a rotating disk, the bottom end of which is rotatably connected to the top end of the support disk, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the top end of the auger rod, and a limiting block is fixedly connected to the top end of the rotating disk, the outer side of which fits into the inner bottom end of the filter screen barrel.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom end of the sealing cap contacts the top end of the container, and a discharge hole is formed inside the bottom end of the container, with a filter plate fixedly connected inside the discharge hole.

[0014] Furthermore, a collection chamber is slidably connected to the inside of the left side of the base plate, and a handle hole is provided on the left side of the collection chamber.

[0015] Furthermore, the top end of the top washer contacts the bottom end of the connecting ring, and the top end of the nut contacts the bottom end of the bottom washer.

[0016] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. In this utility model, by activating the electric push rod, the sealing cover makes the filter screen barrel fit with the limiting block. Then, the motor is started to make the filter screen barrel rotate, which centrifuges the crushed soybeans. At the same time, the limiting block drives the rotating disk to rotate at the top of the support disk, which in turn drives the auger blade to rotate inside the feeding hole. Its spiral structure can continuously push and stir the material. When there are aggregates or sediments near the feeding hole, the auger blade can break them up and push them smoothly through the feeding hole, avoiding material accumulation and blockage at the opening, reducing the number of production interruptions caused by blockage, and improving production efficiency.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a plant protein production waste recycling processor, comprising a base plate 1, a support assembly fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, the support assembly consisting of a support rod 2 whose bottom end is stably fixed to the top of the base plate 1, a carrying plate 3 fixedly connected to the left side of the support rod 2, an electric push rod 4 fixedly connected to the top of the carrying plate 3, a sealing cover 5 fixedly connected to the drive end of the electric push rod 4, a motor 6 fixedly connected inside the sealing cover 5, and a connecting assembly fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor 6. This connecting assembly includes a transmission rod 7 whose top end is fixed to the drive end of the motor 6, and multiple connecting rods 8 fixedly connected to the outside of the transmission rod 7. These connecting rods 8 are fixedly connected to the inside of a filter barrel 9, thereby enabling the motor 6 to drive the filter barrel 9 to rotate through the transmission rod 7 and the connecting rods 8. A receiving bucket 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1.

[0027] An arc-shaped hole 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the container 10. A feeding mechanism is fixedly connected inside the arc-shaped hole 11. The feeding mechanism consists of multiple support frames 12. A support plate 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the multiple support frames 12 that are close to each other. A connecting assembly is rotatably connected to the top of the support plate 13. The connecting assembly includes a rotating plate 14 whose bottom end is rotatably connected to the top of the support plate 13. An auger rod 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating plate 14. A limiting block 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate 14. The outside of the limiting block 15 can accurately and properly fit into the bottom of the filter screen 9. An auger blade 17 is fixedly connected to the outside of the auger rod 16. When the filter screen 9 rotates, the limiting block 15 can drive the rotating plate 14 to rotate, thereby causing the auger rod 16 to drive the auger blade 17 to work in the feeding hole 18.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The filter bucket 9 is externally fixedly connected to an installation mechanism, which consists of a connecting ring 22 internally threaded with multiple bolts 23. Two washers 24 are slidably connected to the outside of the bolts 23. A strong spring 25 is fixedly connected to the side of the two washers 24 that are close to each other. A nut 26 is also threadedly connected to the outside of the bolts 23. The top of the top washer 24 is in close contact with the bottom of the connecting ring 22, and the top of the nut 26 is in close contact with the bottom of the bottom washer 24. With this structural combination, after the processed chopped potatoes are placed inside the filter bucket 9, tightening the bolts 23... 23 smoothly passes through the connecting ring 22 and is tightly engaged with the nut 26. With the synergistic action of the washer 24 and the strong spring 25, the filter screen 9 can be installed on the sealing cover 5. This installation method makes the position of the filter screen 9 accurately fixed. The bottom end of the sealing cover 5 contacts the top end of the receiving tank 10. The bottom end of the receiving tank 10 has a discharge hole 18. The filter plate 19 is fixedly connected inside the discharge hole 18. The left side of the bottom plate 1 is slidably connected to the collection chamber 20. The left side of the collection chamber 20 has a handle hole 21, which facilitates the operation of the collection chamber 20 through the handle hole 21.

[0029] Working principle: First, the processed chopped potatoes are placed inside the filter basket 9. Then, bolt 23 is tightened, passing through the connecting ring 22 and engaging with nut 26. With the combined action of washer 24 and strong spring 25, the filter basket 9 is stably installed on the sealing cover 5. This installation method fixes the position of the filter basket 9, preventing it from shifting, shaking, or falling off due to centrifugal force during subsequent operation. This ensures that the potatoes undergo component separation and other operations in a stable environment, improving the safety of equipment operation.

[0030] The electric push rod 4 is activated, and its drive end pushes the sealing cover 5 to move, causing the filter screen barrel 9 to engage with the limiting block 15. Then, the motor 6 is activated, driving the transmission rod 7 to rotate. The transmission rod 7 then drives the connecting rod 8, causing the filter screen barrel 9 to rotate at high speed, centrifuging the potatoes. The potatoes tumble and roll within the filter screen barrel 9, gradually moving towards its edge, resulting in a certain degree of separation of the potato's internal components. Simultaneously, the limiting block 15 rotates with the filter screen barrel 9, causing the rotating disk 14 to rotate at the top of the support disk 13. The rotating disk 14 drives the auger rod 16 to rotate, and the auger rod 16 drives the auger blades 17 to rotate inside the discharge hole 18. The spiral structure of the auger blade 17 continuously pushes and stirs the material. When there are aggregates or sediments near the discharge hole 18, the auger blade 17 breaks them up and pushes them smoothly through the discharge hole 18, avoiding material accumulation and blockage at the orifice, reducing the number of production interruptions caused by blockage, and improving production efficiency. The processed material is initially filtered through the filter plate 19 in the discharge hole 18 and then falls into the bottom of the container 10. Some waste flows into the collection chamber 20 through the arc-shaped hole 11. The collection chamber 20 can be easily pulled out through the handle hole 21 for waste cleaning.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
