[0002] Plant-based beverages, also known as plant-based drinks, refer to beverage products made from plants or plant extracts (excluding tea and coffee) as raw materials (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds of non-fruit and vegetable plants, as well as the juice secreted by bamboo or trees themselves, such as grains, edible fungi, edible algae and ferns, cocoa, chrysanthemum, etc.) through processing or fermentation.

[0003] In the production of plant-based beverages, the plants generally need to undergo cell wall breaking to separate the pulp and juice. In existing technologies, the filtration of the broken plants is usually achieved through a filter screen. However, the filter screen is usually fixed. When a lot of residue accumulates on the filter screen, it will cause the mesh of the filter screen to become clogged, which will have a certain impact on the filtration of pulp and juice.

The slider then moves the connecting rod and brush plate to one side, bringing them into contact with the filter cartridge. Starting a second motor rotates the active turntable, which, via a conveyor belt, drives the driven turntable. The driven turntable then rotates the rotating seat, which in turn rotates the filter cartridge. Combined with the brush plate, this facilitates cleaning of the filter cartridge surface. This design also allows for easy removal of accumulated residue, preventing clogging of the mesh and ensuring efficient separation of fruit pulp and juice.

The bottom of the barrel cover 24 is located on the side of the pressing and filtering mechanism for easy cleaning of the surface of the filter cylinder 13. The cleaning mechanism is used in conjunction with the rotating mechanism.

[0028] The cleaning mechanism includes a brush plate 38, an adjusting seat 31 installed on the top of the bucket lid 24, a through groove 32 through the adjusting seat 31 at the bottom of the bucket lid 24, a screw 33 rotatably connected to the inner side of the adjusting seat 31, one end of the screw 33 extending to the outside of the adjusting seat 31 and connected to a crank 34, a slider 35 threadedly connected to the screw 33, limit grooves 36 being opened on both sides of the inner wall of the adjusting seat 31, the two ends of the slider 35 being slidably connected to the two sets of limit grooves 36 respectively, a connecting rod 37 passing through the inner side of the through groove 32, one end of the connecting rod 37 being connected to the bottom of the slider 35, and the other end of the connecting rod 37 being connected to the brush plate 38.

[0029] Specifically, the vehicle body 1 provides a stable working platform for separating fruit pulp and juice in plant-based beverages. The drive mechanism rotates the tank 4, allowing the pulp and residue inside the tank 4 and filter cartridge 13 to be poured out. The lifting mechanism moves the lid 24 up and down, facilitating the closing of the tank 4 and the resetting of the pressing mechanism. The pressing mechanism presses the pulp inside the filter cartridge 13, and the extracted juice flows through the filter cartridge 13 into the tank 4 for collection. When cleaning the filter cartridge 13 is required, [the following steps are taken]. Turning the crank handle 34 causes the screw 33 to rotate. The screw 33, through its threaded connection with the slider 35, causes the slider 35 to move to one side along the adjusting seat 31. The slider 35 then causes the connecting rod 37 and the brush plate 38 to move to one side and come into contact with the filter cartridge 13. With the cooperation of the set rotation mechanism, the filter cartridge 13 can be rotated, so that the brush plate 38 can clean the rotating filter cartridge 13. Through the above structure, the residue accumulated on the filter cartridge 13 can be easily cleaned, avoiding the clogging of the mesh and ensuring the separation efficiency of pulp and juice.

[0030] The rotating mechanism includes a second motor 17. A rotating seat 12 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the barrel 4.

The first motor 7 is mounted on the top of the mounting plate 8 located on one side of the fixed plate 2. By starting the first motor 7, the first motor 7 can drive the driving gear 6 to rotate. The driving gear 6, through its meshing with the driven gear 5, can drive the driven gear 5 to rotate. The driven gear 5 can drive the rotating shaft 3 to rotate. Under the combined action of the two sets of rotating shafts 3, the barrel 4 can be rotated, thereby emptying the pulp and residue inside the barrel 4 and the filter cartridge 13. Each side of the two sets of fixed plates 2 is provided with a limiting plate 9, and both sides of the barrel 4 are provided with abutment plates 10 that are adapted to the limiting plate 9. The rotation of the barrel 4 can be limited by the limiting plate 9 and the abutment plates 10.

[0032] The lifting mechanism includes a third motor 21. A fixed frame 18 is mounted on the top of the vehicle body 1. A rack plate 19 is slidably connected to the fixed frame 18. A drive gear 20 meshes with the rack plate 19. One side of the drive gear 20 is connected to the output end of the third motor 21. The third motor 21 is mounted on the top of a mounting base 22 located on one side of the fixed frame 18. A connecting plate 23 is connected to the top of the rack plate 19. One end of the connecting plate 23 is connected to one side of the bucket lid 24. By starting the third motor 21, the third motor 21 can drive the drive gear 20 to rotate. The drive gear 20, through its meshing action with the rack plate 19, can drive the rack plate 19 to move up and down along the fixed frame 18. The rack plate 19 can drive the connecting plate 23 and the bucket lid 24 to move up and down, thereby facilitating the closing of the bucket body 4 and the reset of the filter pressing mechanism. The filter pressing mechanism includes a pressure plate 30. A lifting rod 25 is slidably connected to the bucket lid 24. A toothed groove 26 is provided on one side of the lifting rod 25. The top of the bucket lid 24 is located on one side of the lifting rod 25 and is provided with two sets of support plates 27.

A pressure plate 30 is connected to the bottom of the lifting rod 25. By starting the fourth motor 29, the fourth motor 29 can drive the circular gear 28 to rotate. The circular gear 28 can drive the lifting rod 25 to move downward through the meshing action with the toothed groove 26. The lifting rod 25 can drive the pressure plate 30 connected to the bottom to move downward along the filter cylinder 13, thereby pressing the pulp placed inside the filter cylinder 13. The pressed juice can flow into the interior of the bucket body 4 through the filter cylinder 13 for collection. Thus, the separation efficiency of plant pulp and juice is improved by the design.

[0033] The barrel 4 has a discharge pipe 11 installed on one side near the bottom, and a notch 39 is provided on one side of the vehicle body 1. The discharge pipe 11 facilitates the output of the separated juice, and the notch 39 facilitates the rotation of the barrel 4, providing it with sufficient space to move.

[0034] Working principle: First, the chopped fruit pulp is placed inside the filter cylinder 13. Then, by starting the third motor 21, the third motor 21 drives the drive gear 20 to rotate. The drive gear 20 drives the rack plate 19 to move downward along the fixed frame 18. The rack plate 19 drives the connecting plate 23 and the lid 24 to move downward, thus facilitating the closing of the barrel 4 and the reset of the pressing mechanism. Next, by starting the fourth motor 29, the fourth motor 29 drives the spur gear 28 to rotate. The spur gear 28 drives the lifting rod 25 to move downward. The lifting rod 25 drives the pressure plate 30 connected at the bottom to move downward along the filter cylinder 13, thus pressing the fruit pulp placed inside the filter cylinder 13. The pressed juice flows through the filter cylinder 13 into the barrel 4. The filter cartridge 13 is collected and discharged through the discharge pipe 11. When cleaning is required, the crank handle 34 is turned, which drives the screw 33 to rotate. The screw 33 drives the slider 35 to move to one side along the adjusting seat 31. The slider 35 drives the connecting rod 37 and the brush plate 38 to move to one side and fit into the filter cartridge 13. Then, the second motor 17 is started, which drives the active turntable 16 to rotate. The active turntable 16 drives the driven turntable 14 to rotate. The driven turntable 14 drives the rotating seat 12 to rotate. The rotating seat 12 drives the filter cartridge 13 to rotate. With the combined action of the brush plate 38, the surface of the filter cartridge 13 can be cleaned easily, thus completing the entire operation process.
