According to an existing grape wine brewing peel residue separating device, peel residues and grape juice are separated through centrifugal force, however, due to the fact that grape peel has a certain blocking effect on water, the peel residues and the grape juice can be separated through the centrifugal force, and the grape juice can be separated from the peel residues through the centrifugal force. The problem that the separation effect is poor due to the fact that part of juice remains in peel residues due to obstruction of grape skins while juice in grapes is thrown out by controlling a high-speed rotation mode of the grapes is solved.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of grape skin and pomace separation, specifically to a grape winemaking skin and pomace separation device. Background Technology

[0002] Winemaking refers to the process of making wine from grapes through a series of processing and fermentation steps. The process of making wine includes harvesting grapes, pressing grape juice, fermentation, and aging. The pomace produced during winemaking is a byproduct of grape fermentation, which can affect the quality and taste of the wine. Therefore, pomace separation devices are used in winemaking to separate the juice from the pomace. These devices are used in both wineries and laboratories.

[0003] Utility model patent CN221584622U discloses a grape pomace separation device, belonging to the technical field of grape pomace separation. It addresses the problem in existing technologies where, when a large number of grapes are stored in a grape-holding frame, a drive motor-driven disc cannot effectively extract all the juice, often requiring further processing. This is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. The device includes an outer cylinder with a sealing dome cover on its top surface. A crushing box is fixedly installed on the top surface of the sealing dome cover, and a hopper is fixedly installed on the top surface of the crushing box. The drive motor... The device rotates the connecting plate and the separating screen cylinder. When the separating screen cylinder rotates, the solids of the grape skins and pulp inside will separate from the liquid. The separated liquid enters the inner cylinder and then enters the circular collection cylinder for collection, which is convenient for subsequent processing. At this time, the operator pulls the handle on the sealing dome cover to remove it from the top of the outer cylinder. Then, the operator pulls the U-shaped mounting block to remove the inner cylinder and the separating screen cylinder from the inside of the outer cylinder, and then the grape skins and pulp inside can be poured out and cleaned. This device can effectively separate grape skins and pulp, improve the utilization rate of grape juice, and is small in size and easy to assemble and disassemble, so it can be used in the laboratory.

[0004] However, the above patent still has shortcomings: the patent separates the skin and pulp from the grape juice through centrifugal force, but because the grape skin has a certain barrier to water, while controlling the high-speed rotation of the grapes throws out the juice inside the grapes, some juice remains inside the skin and pulp due to the barrier of the grape skin, resulting in poor separation effect.

Detailed Implementation

[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] Please see Figures 1 to 6 The present invention will describe the above technical solution in detail through the following embodiments:

[0027] A winemaking pomace separation device includes: a separation chamber 1; a separation cylinder 2 fixedly connected inside the separation chamber 1, with a waste outlet 3 at one end of the separation cylinder 2; a crushing chamber 4 at the top of the separation chamber 1, with a feed inlet 5 at the bottom of the crushing chamber 4, the bottom end of the feed inlet 5 penetrating the separation chamber 1 and extending into the interior of the separation cylinder 2; the feed inlet 5 is fixedly connected to the separation chamber 1 and the separation cylinder 2; a rotating mechanism 6 is installed inside the separation cylinder 2 to improve the separation efficiency of pomace and grape juice; and a power mechanism 7 is installed inside the crushing chamber 4 to crush the grapes. The user pours the grapes into the crushing chamber. The grapes are fed into the crushing chamber 4, and the power mechanism 7 crushes the grapes while controlling the rotating mechanism 6 to rotate. The crushed grapes enter the separation cylinder 2 through the feed port 5. While rotating, the rotating mechanism 6 continuously pushes the crushed grapes towards the waste port 3. When the grapes reach the waste port 3, the rotating mechanism 6 squeezes the grapes, thereby squeezing out the juice inside the grapes. The squeezed juice flows into the separation chamber 1 through the separation cylinder 2 for storage, while the peel and pulp are continuously and uniformly discharged from the outside of the device through the waste port 3.

[0028] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the rotating mechanism 6 includes: a first rotating shaft 8 disposed inside the separation cylinder 2, one end of the first rotating shaft 8 penetrating through the separation box 1 and extending to the outside of the separation box 1, the first rotating shaft 8 being rotatably connected to the separation box 1, a fixing rod 9 being fixedly connected to the end of the first rotating shaft 8 away from the separation box 1, a screw 10 being fixedly connected to the end of the fixing rod 9 away from the first rotating shaft 8, a circular plate 11 being rotatably connected to the end of the screw 10 away from the fixing rod 9, connecting rods 12 being fixedly connected to the four corners of the circular plate 11, and the ends of the connecting rods 12 away from the circular plate 11 being fixedly connected to the separation box 1; auger blades 13 are disposed on the outer surface of the first rotating shaft 8 located inside the separation cylinder 2, the auger blades 13 being connected to the separation cylinder 2 and the waste inlet. The three-phase system is adapted, with the auger blades 13 fixed to the outer surface of the first rotating shaft 8; the outer surface of the fixing rod 9 is provided with an elastic mechanism 14 that can adjust the separation effect of the skin and grape juice. When the first rotating shaft 8 rotates, it not only drives the screw 10 to rotate through the fixing rod 9, but also drives the auger blades 13. When the auger blades 13 rotate, they continuously push the crushed grapes towards the waste inlet 3 in cooperation with the separation cylinder 2. As the crushed grapes continuously move and accumulate towards the waste inlet 3, the elastic mechanism 14 squeezes the grapes accumulated at the waste inlet 3. Through the cooperation of the elastic mechanism 14 and the auger blades 13, a relative force is applied to the grapes at the waste inlet 3, thereby squeezing the grapes.

[0029] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, the elastic mechanism 14 includes: a pressure plate 15 slidably connected to the outer surface of the fixed rod 9; a spring 16 is provided on one side of the pressure plate 15; a hexagonal nut 17 is provided at the end of the spring 16 away from the pressure plate 15; the hexagonal nut 17 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 10; the spring 16 is sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed rod 9 and the screw rod 10, and the pressure plate 15 is adapted to it; the spring 16 pushes the pressure plate 15 through the cooperation of the hexagonal nut 17, so that the pressure plate 15 is tightly fitted at the waste inlet 3; the pressure plate 15 cooperates with the auger blades 13 to squeeze the grapes, thereby achieving the separation of skin and pulp from juice. As more and more grapes accumulate at the waste outlet 3, the thrust of the auger blades 13 on the grapes increases continuously. When the thrust exceeds the elastic force of the spring 16, the peels push the pressure plate 15, causing the pressure plate 15 to separate from the waste outlet 3. This allows a small amount of peels to be continuously discharged from the gap between the pressure plate 15 and the waste outlet 3 to the outside of the device. The user can rotate the hexagonal nut 17 to reduce the distance between the hexagonal nut 17 and the pressure plate 15, thereby adjusting the hardness of the spring 16 and thus adjusting the separation effect of the peels and juice.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the power mechanism 7 includes: a second rotating shaft 18 rotatably connected inside the crushing box 4; a third rotating shaft 19 disposed on one side of the second rotating shaft 18; one end of the third rotating shaft 19 passes through the crushing box 4 and extends to the motor 20, which is fixedly connected to the motor 20; the end of the third rotating shaft 19 away from the motor 20 passes through the motor 20 and extends to the outside of the crushing box 4; crushing rollers 21 are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the second rotating shaft 18 and the third rotating shaft 19 inside the crushing box 4, and the two crushing rollers 21 cooperate with each other; gears 29 are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the second rotating shaft 18 and the third rotating shaft 19 outside the crushing box 4, and the two gears 29 mesh with each other. When the motor 20 is started, the output end of the motor 20 drives the third rotating shaft 19, and the third rotating shaft 19 rotates while driving the gears 29. The two gears 29 cooperate with each other to drive the second rotating shaft 18 to rotate in the opposite direction. The third rotating shaft 19 rotates in the opposite direction to the second rotating shaft 18 while driving the crushing rollers 21. The two crushing rollers 21 cooperate with each other to crush the grapes.

[0031] like Figure 6 As shown, a first synchronous pulley 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the third rotating shaft 19 away from the motor 20. A second synchronous pulley 23 is provided at the bottom of the first synchronous pulley 22. The second synchronous pulley 23 is fixed to the outer surface of the first rotating shaft 8. The first synchronous pulley 22 and the second synchronous pulley 23 are connected by a synchronous belt 24. When the third rotating shaft 19 rotates, it also drives the first synchronous pulley 22. The first synchronous pulley 22 drives the second synchronous pulley 23 through the synchronous belt 24. The second synchronous pulley 23 drives the first rotating shaft 8, so that the third rotating shaft 19 and the first rotating shaft 8 rotate simultaneously.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a drain port 25 is provided at the center of the bottom of the separation box 1. A valve 26 is provided inside the drain port 25 to facilitate the user to manually drain the separated juice to the outside of the device.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, support frames 27 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the separation box 1, and structural plates 28 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the crushing box 4. The structural plates 28 are fixedly connected to the crushing box 4 and the separation box 1, which improves the structural strength of the device and thus improves the stability of the device.

[0034] Working principle: The user pours grapes into the crushing chamber 4 and then starts the motor 20. The output of the motor 20 drives the third shaft 19. The rotation of the third shaft 19 drives the gear 29. The two gears 29 work together to drive the second shaft 18 to rotate in the opposite direction. The rotation of the third shaft 19 and the second shaft 18 in the opposite direction drives the crushing roller 21. The two crushing rollers 21 work together to crush the grapes. The crushed grapes enter the separation cylinder 2 through the feed inlet 5. The rotation of the third shaft 19 also drives the first synchronous pulley 22. The first synchronous pulley 22 is connected to the synchronous belt. 24 drives the second synchronous pulley 23, which in turn drives the first rotating shaft 8, causing the third rotating shaft 19 to rotate simultaneously with the first rotating shaft 8. While the first rotating shaft 8 rotates, it not only drives the screw 10 to rotate via the fixed rod 9, but also drives the auger blades 13. As the auger blades 13 rotate, they continuously push the crushed grapes towards the waste inlet 3 in cooperation with the separating cylinder 2. As the crushed grapes accumulate towards the waste inlet 3, the spring 16, through the cooperation of the hexagonal nut 17, pushes the pressure plate 15, causing the pressure plate 15 to fit tightly against the waste inlet 3. 5. In conjunction with the auger blades 13, the grapes are squeezed to separate the skins and juice. As more and more grapes accumulate at the waste outlet 3, the pushing force of the auger blades 13 on the grapes continuously increases. When the pushing force exceeds the elastic force of the spring 16, the skins push the pressure plate 15, causing the pressure plate 15 to separate from the waste outlet 3. This allows a small amount of skins to be continuously discharged from the gap between the pressure plate 15 and the waste outlet 3 to the outside of the device. The user can rotate the hexagonal nut 17 to reduce the distance between the hexagonal nut 17 and the pressure plate 15, thereby adjusting the hardness of the spring 16 and achieving the desired effect of separating the skins and juice. The separation effect of the grapes and juice can be adjusted to continuously squeeze the grapes, separating them into skins and pulp and juice. This improves the separation effect and allows for adjustment according to the user's needs, enhancing practicality. Existing winemaking skin and pulp separation devices separate the skins and pulp from the grape juice using centrifugal force. However, because the grape skins have a certain barrier to water, while controlling the high-speed rotation of the grapes throws out the juice from inside the grapes, some juice remains inside the skins and pulp due to the barrier of the grape skins, resulting in poor separation effect.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
