Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible oil processing technology, specifically to an extractor with a self-cleaning function. Background Technology

[0002] Leaching is one of the most critical processes in oil refining. It utilizes the miscibility of oil and solvent; the solvent penetrates into the solid oil, dissolving the oil to form a concentrated mixture. Due to the concentration difference, the concentrated mixture inside the solid oil diffuses into the dilute mixture on the outside, extracting the oil. The main equipment in the leaching process is the leaching unit. Currently, the main leaching units used in production can be divided into rotary leaching units, annular leaching units, and cable-driven leaching units, etc. Among them, rotary leaching units are the most common in small and medium-sized oil plants. The rotary extractor has a cylindrical internal structure with evenly distributed rotating grids. There are approximately one spray pipe above each grid, and an oil collection grid below. The oil collection grid is connected to the spray pipes via an oil pump. During operation, the grids and oil collection grids move in opposite directions. The oil pump draws the mixed oil from the oil collection grid to the spray pipes, which spray the material in the grids to extract the oil, which then falls back into the oil collection grid. Each grid's material needs to be drained after one or two sprays before being sprayed again, until finally exiting through the final outlet. While the mechanism is simple and convenient, it lacks a cleaning and pressure-down structure. The residue in the grids falls off naturally by gravity, leaving residues on the wall after discharge, affecting subsequent feeding and processing. Furthermore, simply draining leaves a significant amount of oil residue in the residue, indicating room for improvement. Utility Model Content

The proximity switch 14 sends an electrical signal to the controller 12, and the controller 12 controls the motor 18 to... After a brief pause, the electric push rod 13 operates. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 13, via the sliding column 9, drives the cleaning pressure plate 10 to extend into the material container 3. The motor 18 continues to operate, and the material container 3, through the cleaning pressure plate 10, drives the sliding column 9 and the rotating frame 5 to rotate synchronously with the material container 3. The rotating frame 5 stretches the tension spring 8, and the cleaning pressure plate 10 squeezes the material inside the material container 3, facilitating the extrusion of oil. Simultaneously, the material container 3 gradually aligns with the slag chute 22, facilitating the discharge of oil slag. After the vertical plate 16 aligns with the next proximity switch 14, the motor 18 briefly stops. Then, the telescopic end of the electric push rod 13 retracts, causing the cleaning pressure plate 10 to move out of the material container 3. The tension spring 8 drives the rotating frame 5 to rotate clockwise to reset. The cleaning pressure plate 10 then continues to insert into the next material container 3 for cleaning.
