Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of filling equipment technology, and in particular to a device for removing impurities in the filling area. Background Technology

[0002] CIP (Clean In Place) filling systems are aseptic filling technologies used to clean the interior of equipment without disassembly or manual intervention, and are widely used in beverage, dairy, and pharmaceutical industries. A typical CIP filling system includes a cleaning solution storage tank, a pumping system, dispensers and nozzles, control components and sensors, and monitoring equipment. The cleaning solution storage tank holds different types of cleaning solutions, such as pre-rinse water, detergent solutions, rinse water, and disinfectant solutions. The pumping system delivers the cleaning solution from the storage tank to the various areas requiring cleaning. Distributors and nozzles ensure even distribution of the cleaning solution throughout the equipment, covering all contact surfaces. The control system manages the entire cleaning process, including parameters such as flow rate, temperature, time, and chemical dosage. Sensors and monitoring equipment monitor key indicators during the cleaning process in real time, such as pH, conductivity, and temperature, to ensure that the cleaning effect meets standards. The primary purpose of this filling system is to ensure hygienic conditions in production equipment and prevent product contamination.

[0003] The final stage of a wine production line typically employs CIP (Clean-in-Place) bottling technology. In actual production, the bottling equipment and piping often need to be cleaned and sterilized before bottling begins. Because of gaps in the aseptic bottling area equipment, flies and insects may enter the aseptic bottling area during the gap between equipment sterilization and the start of bottling. Since sterilization is complete by this time, these flies and insects become difficult to remove.

[0004] Based on the above existing technologies, it can be seen that when the existing CIP bottling technology is applied to a wine production line, there may be technical problems such as flies and insects entering the aseptic bottling area, causing secondary contamination, and thus affecting the quality of the finished product. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a device for removing impurities in the filling area to prevent flies and insects from entering the aseptic filling area after sterilization and causing secondary contamination.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A cleaning device for a filling area includes a frame installed on the ground;

[0008] The chassis is mounted on the rack;

[0009] The filter assembly is detachably mounted inside the chassis;

[0010] The fan is installed inside the casing;

[0011] The conveying component is connected at one end to the inside of the machine housing and at the other end to the exhaust pipe of the filling area.

[0012] Furthermore, the filter assembly includes a frame that is vertically slidably disposed within the chassis;

[0013] A filter screen is installed on the frame.

[0014] Furthermore, the chassis includes a housing, which is mounted on the rack;

[0015] A mesh cover is detachably mounted on the housing, and the air intake direction of the fan is perpendicular to the mesh cover; the filter assembly is disposed between the fan and the mesh cover in a direction parallel to the mesh cover.

[0016] The access door is detachably located on the side of the enclosure;

[0017] The latch is rotatably mounted on the chassis and abuts against the access door.

[0018] Furthermore, the inner wall of the housing is provided with a sliding groove, and the filter assembly is slidably disposed in the sliding groove.

[0019] Furthermore, the access door is equipped with a handle.

[0020] Furthermore, the conveying assembly includes a conveying pipe, one end of which is connected to the inside of the chassis, and the other end of which is connected to the exhaust pipe of the filling area.

[0021] An electric flap is installed inside the conveying pipe at one end near the exhaust pipe of the filling area.

[0022] Furthermore, the outer wall of the fan's guide shroud extends horizontally to form a limiting plate, and the limiting plate has multiple bolt holes.

[0023] Furthermore, a cushioning layer is provided at the end of the rack away from the chassis, and the cushioning layer is made of a flexible material.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0025] This utility model discloses a filling area impurity removal device. By mounting the chassis on a frame, the frame effectively limits the installation of the chassis. The chassis also limits the installation of the fan and filter assembly. The filter assembly filters and purifies the air entering the chassis. The fan generates airflow, which, after being purified by the filter assembly, is conveyed through a conveying assembly to the exhaust duct of the filling area, thus connecting it to the interior of the filling area and creating positive pressure. This prevents flies and insects from entering the filling area through gaps in the equipment and causing secondary contamination. In actual production, after the aseptic filling equipment completes disinfection and sterilization, and before starting the filling operation, the exhaust duct of the filling area is closed. The conveying assembly is opened, and the fan starts working. External air enters the chassis under the pressure difference generated by the fan, and then passes through the filter assembly to remove impurities. The conveyed components then guide the filling area into the exhaust duct of the filling area, thus creating a positive pressure environment within the filling area. Each joint of the filling area equipment generates an outward blowing airflow, which effectively blocks flies.

[0026] Secondly, by designing the filter assembly as a frame and filter screen structure, with the frame slidingly positioned inside the chassis, installation and disassembly are more convenient, simplifying subsequent inspection, maintenance, and cleaning. The frame supports the filter screen, which, when fixedly mounted on the frame, filters dust and other impurities from the air, providing a clean air source.

[0027] Furthermore, by configuring the chassis as a structure consisting of a housing, a mesh cover, an access door, and snap-fit ​​mechanisms, the housing supports the other structural components and, together with the filter assembly, creates a cavity for purifying the air. The mesh cover, located on the chassis, provides preliminary filtration of large particulate impurities in the air, thus enhancing the filtration effect in conjunction with the filter assembly. The mesh cover, providing preliminary filtration, significantly reduces the amount of large particulate contaminants that the filter assembly needs to remove, thereby increasing the filter assembly's lifespan and reducing the frequency of maintenance and replacement. The access door, installed on one side of the chassis, allows for later cleaning or replacement of the filter assembly, and fan repair. The snap-fit ​​installation simplifies the opening and closing of the access door. A handle on the access door facilitates its installation and removal.

[0028] Furthermore, by configuring the conveying assembly as a conveying pipe and an electric flap, the conveying pipe serves as a conduit for clean air output from the fan, guiding the clean air into the exhaust duct of the filling area. This allows clean air to enter the filling area from the exhaust duct, creating a positive pressure environment and preventing flies and insects from crawling in through gaps and causing secondary pollution. The multi-section pipes are connected by flanges and bolts, ensuring both overall airtightness and the structural strength and load-bearing capacity of the pipes. The electric flap, installed near the exhaust duct of the filling area, controls the opening and closing of the conveying pipe by flipping it. Compared to traditional air valves, the electric flap has a faster response time, reducing the time required for opening and closing while still meeting airtightness requirements, further reducing the possibility of secondary contamination in the filling area.

[0029] By incorporating a horizontally extending limiting plate on the fan's guide shroud that abuts against the inner wall of the casing, the limiting plate provides support and restraint to the casing. This prevents loosening of the connection between the casing and the fan after prolonged use and reduces fan vibration during operation, lowering noise levels and improving user experience. Bolt holes on the limiting plate allow for the installation of tightening or adjusting bolts, further enhancing the fan's structural stability and extending its service life.

[0030] By installing a buffer pad at the end of the rack furthest from the chassis, where the rack contacts the bottom surface, some of the vibrations generated by the fan's operation can be absorbed, preventing noise caused by the transmission of vibrations to the ground. Simultaneously, the buffer pad increases the contact area between the rack and the bottom surface, further improving the rack's structural stability. Attached Figure Description

The utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0042] The following will refer to the appendix. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0043] This embodiment relates to a device for removing impurities in the filling area, which can effectively prevent flies and insects from entering the aseptic filling area after sterilization and causing secondary contamination. It has the advantages of simple and reliable structure and thorough impurity removal effect.

[0044] In terms of overall structure, refer to Figure 1 This embodiment of a filling area impurity removal device includes a frame 1, a housing 2, a filter assembly 3, a fan 4, and a conveying assembly 5. The frame 1 is fixedly installed on a horizontal surface. The housing 2 is mounted on the frame 1, and both the filter assembly 3 and the fan 4 are installed inside the housing 2. The filter assembly 3 is detachably installed inside the housing 2. One end of the conveying assembly 5 communicates with the interior of the housing 2, and the other end communicates with the exhaust duct of the filling area.

[0045] As configured above, by placing the chassis 2 on the frame 1, the frame 1 effectively limits the installation of the chassis 2. The chassis 2 also limits the installation of the fan 4 and filter assembly 3. The filter assembly 3 filters and purifies the air entering the chassis 2. The fan 4 generates airflow, which, after being purified by the filter assembly 3, is transported through the conveying assembly 5 to the exhaust duct of the filling area, thus connecting it to the interior of the filling area and creating positive pressure. This prevents flies and insects from entering the filling area through gaps in the equipment and causing secondary contamination. In actual production, after the aseptic filling equipment completes disinfection and sterilization, and before starting the filling operation, the exhaust duct of the filling area is closed. The conveying assembly 5 is opened, and the fan 4 starts working. External air enters the chassis 2 under the pressure difference generated by the fan 4, and then passes through the filter assembly 3 to remove impurities. The conveying component 5 then guides the contents into the exhaust duct of the filling area, which is connected to the filling area. This creates a positive pressure environment in the filling area, and each joint of the filling area equipment generates an outward blowing airflow, which effectively blocks flies.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 To provide purified air to the fan 4 and prevent contamination of raw materials during the extraction process, the filter assembly 3 includes a frame 301 and a filter screen 302. The frame 301 can be a rectangular hollow frame made of polymer material. The frame 301 is slidably installed inside the housing 2 along a direction perpendicular to the ground. The filter screen 302 is fixedly installed on the frame 301 by adhesive. The edges of the frame 301 are beveled, facilitating easy installation of the frame 301 into the housing 2 and simplifying subsequent cleaning and replacement operations of the filter assembly 3.

[0047] By configuring the filter assembly 3 as a frame 301 and a filter screen 302, with the frame 301 slidably mounted inside the housing 2, installation and disassembly are more convenient, simplifying subsequent inspection, maintenance, and cleaning. The frame 301 provides support for the filter screen 302, which, when fixedly mounted on the frame 301, filters dust and other impurities from the air, providing a clean air source.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 Based on the purpose of providing support for other components and providing an openable and closable chamber for air purification, in this embodiment, the chassis 2 includes a housing 201, a mesh cover 202, an inspection door 203, and a latch 204. The housing 201 can be a rectangular hollow metal box with openings on two sides. A groove is formed on the inner wall of the housing 201, and the filter assembly 3 is slidably disposed within the groove. The width of the groove is the same as the width of the filter assembly 3. The housing 201 is mounted on the frame 1 by welding or bolting. The mesh cover 202 can be a rectangular metal plate with elongated mesh openings. The mesh cover 202 is installed at one opening of the housing 201 by a latching mechanism. The inspection door 203 is installed at the other opening of the housing 201 by a latching mechanism. Two handles are symmetrically mounted on the inspection door 203. The handles and the inspection door 203 are fixed together by two fastening bolts perpendicular to the plane of the inspection door 203. Multiple latches 204 are rotatably mounted on the housing 201. The latches 204 can rotate to a position abutting against the surface of the access door 203, thereby limiting the access door 203.

[0049] By configuring the chassis 2 as a structure consisting of a housing 201, a mesh cover 202, an access door 203, and a latch 204, the housing 201 provides support for the other structural components and, together with the filter assembly, creates a cavity for purifying the gas. The mesh cover 202, located on the chassis 2, provides preliminary filtration of large particulate impurities in the air, thus enhancing the filtration effect in conjunction with the filter assembly 3. The presence of the mesh cover 202 on the chassis 2 significantly reduces the amount of large particulate pollutants that the filter assembly 3 needs to remove, thereby increasing the lifespan of the filter assembly 3 and reducing the frequency of maintenance, repair, and replacement. The access door 203, installed on one side of the chassis 2, allows for later cleaning or replacement of the filter assembly 3, and repair of the fan 4. The latch 204 simplifies the opening and closing of the access door 203. A handle installed on the access door 203 facilitates its installation and removal.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 To ensure the clean air source is delivered to the filling area and to achieve positive pressure conditions, the conveying assembly 5 includes a conveying pipe 501 and an electric flap 502. The conveying pipe 501 consists of multiple sections of straight metal pipes and right-angle bends connected by flange bolts. One end of the conveying pipe 501 connects to the interior of the housing 2, and the other end connects to the exhaust duct of the filling area. The electric flap 502 is installed inside the conveying pipe 501 near the exhaust duct of the filling area. The electric flap 502 enables the opening and closing of the conveying pipe 501.

[0051] By configuring the conveying assembly 5 as a conveying pipe 501 and an electric flap 502, the conveying pipe 501 serves as a conduit for clean air output from the blower 4, guiding the clean air into the exhaust duct of the filling area. This allows clean air to enter the filling area from the exhaust duct, creating a positive pressure environment and preventing flies and insects from crawling in through gaps and causing secondary pollution. The multi-section pipes are connected by flanges and bolts, ensuring both overall airtightness and the structural strength and load-bearing capacity of the pipes. The electric flap 502 is installed on the side near the exhaust duct of the filling area and can control the opening and closing of the conveying pipe 501 by flipping it. Compared to traditional air duct valves, the electric flap 502 has a faster response speed, shortening the time required for opening and closing while meeting airtightness requirements, further reducing the possibility of secondary contamination in the filling area.

[0052] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The guide shield of the fan 4 extends outward in a horizontal direction to form a limiting plate 401. The limiting plate 401 abuts against the inner wall of the casing 2. Bolt holes are provided on the limiting plate 401. The bolt holes can be two circular through holes with threads on the inner wall and symmetrically distributed.

[0053] By providing a limiting plate 401 extending horizontally on the guide shroud of the fan 4 and abutting against the inner wall of the casing 2, the limiting plate 401 can provide limiting support for the casing 2. This prevents loosening of the connection between the casing 2 and the fan 4 after long-term use, and reduces shaking of the fan 4 during operation, lowering noise levels and improving user experience. Bolt holes on the limiting plate 401 can be used to install fastening or adjusting bolts, further improving the structural stability of the fan 4 and extending its service life.

[0054] Reference Figure 1 A cushioning layer 101 is provided at the end of the frame 1 away from the chassis 2. The cushioning layer 101 is in direct contact with the bottom surface. The cushioning layer 101 can be supported by flexible materials such as rubber or sponge.

[0055] By providing a buffer pad 101 at the end of the frame 1 furthest from the chassis 2, i.e., the end of the frame 1 in contact with the bottom surface, some of the vibrations generated by the operation of the fan 4 can be absorbed, preventing noise caused by the transmission of vibrations to the ground. At the same time, the buffer pad 101 can increase the contact area between the frame 1 and the bottom surface, further improving the structural stability of the frame 1.

[0056] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
