Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of soft drink production technology, specifically relating to a carbon dioxide filter for soft drink production. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of soft drinks, carbon dioxide is a key raw material, and its purity has a crucial impact on the quality and taste of the soft drinks. However, carbon dioxide obtained from gas sources often contains various impurities, such as dust, microorganisms, grease, and other gaseous pollutants. If these impurities are not effectively removed, they will be incorporated into the soft drinks along with the carbon dioxide, which may not only change the color, smell, and taste of the soft drinks, but also pose a potential threat to the stability and safety of the products. In order to ensure the quality of carbon dioxide in soft drink production and meet strict food production standards, carbon dioxide filters have emerged and become an indispensable key piece of equipment on soft drink production lines.

[0003] Currently, carbon dioxide that is not effectively captured by carbon dioxide filters directly affects the taste and quality of soft drinks, resulting in insufficient and delicate bubbles, a loss of the refreshing taste, and a reduced drinking experience for consumers. Secondly, excessive carbon dioxide release may cause excessively high carbon dioxide concentrations in the production environment, posing a potential threat to the health of operators and affecting work safety. In addition, poor capture efficiency means that the filter is not functioning properly, which may require frequent replacement of alkali solution or filter maintenance, increasing production costs and maintenance workload, reducing production efficiency, and even potentially causing production interruptions due to frequent equipment maintenance, affecting the company's economic benefits and market supply stability.

However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0027] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0028] Example

[0029] Reference Figures 1-5 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a carbon dioxide filter for soft drink production, comprising:

[0030] The support mechanism 100 includes a housing 101, a stirring assembly 102 disposed in the inner cavity of the housing 101, a sealing ring 103 fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the housing 101, and a porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 placed on top of the sealing ring 103.

[0031] The dispersion mechanism 200 includes a cylinder 201 fixedly installed at the bottom of the housing 101 by bolts, a turbulence-dispersing component 202 disposed in the inner cavity of the cylinder 201, and a support ring 203 fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the cylinder 201.

[0032] In the supporting mechanism 100, the housing 101 serves as an overall frame to provide a stable working space, the sealing ring 103 ensures that the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 is placed firmly and has good sealing performance to prevent gas leakage, and the stirring component 102 is set in the inner cavity of the housing 101 to stir and disperse the incoming carbon dioxide gas, so that the gas can fully contact the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 and improve the filtration efficiency.

[0033] The turbulence component 202 turbulently treats the carbon dioxide gas entering from below, further uniformly distributing the gas and allowing it to enter the bearing mechanism 100 for filtration in a more orderly manner. The support ring 203 supports and positions the internal components, ensuring the stability of the overall structure. The two work together to play a role in multiple aspects, from gas pretreatment and dispersion to filtration and structural stability, significantly improving the overall effect of carbon dioxide filtration and providing a purer carbon dioxide source for soft drink production.

[0034] Specifically, the stirring assembly 102 includes a stirring rod 102a rotatably mounted in the inner cavity of the housing 101, a sleeve 102b fixedly fitted to the outer surface of the stirring rod 102a by bolts, a stirring inclined plate 102c fixedly mounted on the outside of the sleeve 102b, and a disc 102d fixedly mounted on the bottom of the stirring rod 102a. The stirring assembly 102 also includes ventilation slots 102e evenly and annularly opened on the outside of the disc 102d, several stirring vertical plates 102f fixedly mounted on the outside of the disc 102d, and a servo motor 102g fixedly connected to the top of the stirring rod 102a by a coupling.

[0035] Among them, the stirring plate 102c in the stirring assembly 102 is fixedly installed on the outside of the sleeve 102b. When the servo motor 102g drives the stirring rod 102a to rotate, the stirring plate 102c rotates accordingly, which further disperses the carbon dioxide gas entering the shell 101, making the gas more evenly distributed in the shell 101 and better contacting the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104, thereby improving the capture efficiency.

[0036] During the rotation of the stirring rod 102a, the stirring vertical plate 102f can disturb the surface of the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 to a certain extent, destroying the coating layer formed on its surface by the reaction products. At the same time, the ventilation slot 102e ensures the flow of gas, so that fresh alkaline solution or adsorption material can continuously participate in the carbon dioxide capture reaction, realizing dynamic renewal in the capture process and effectively avoiding the problem of decreased capture effect due to the accumulation of reaction products.

[0037] Furthermore, the turbulence assembly 202 includes a vertical rod 202a disposed in the inner cavity of the cylinder 201, a fixing ring 202b fixedly installed on the outside of the vertical rod 202a, and a swaying assembly 202c disposed on the top of the vertical rod 202a. The turbulence assembly 202 also includes a horizontal rod 202d fixedly installed on the outside of the fixing ring 202b, a turbulence plate 202e fixedly installed on the outside of the horizontal rod 202d, and turbulence grooves 202f formed on the outside of the turbulence plate 202e.

[0038] The upright 202a serves as a supporting base and is fixed inside the cylinder 201. The fixing ring 202b on its outer side provides stable support for the crossbar 202d. The baffle 202e on the outer side of the crossbar 202d and the baffle grooves 202f on the outer side of the baffle 202e enable the airflow to form a turbulent yet uniform flow state when carbon dioxide gas enters from the inlet pipe 106 and passes through the cylinder 201. This achieves effective gas dispersion, increases the contact area between carbon dioxide and subsequent filtration and reaction components, and helps improve the capture effect.

[0039] Preferably, the shaking assembly 202c includes a sleeve 202c-1 movably fitted at the central opening of the inner cavity of the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104, a cavity 202c-2 formed in the inner cavity of the sleeve 202c-1, a return spring 202c-3 fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the cavity 202c-2, a limiting plate 202c-4 fixedly installed at the bottom of the return spring 202c-3, a limiting channel 202c-5 formed on the outer side of the sleeve 202c-1, a limiting block 202c-6 movably locked in the inner cavity of the limiting channel 202c-5, and a support rod 202c-7 fixedly installed on the outer side of the limiting block 202c-6. The limiting block 202c-6 and the limiting plate 202c-4 are fixedly connected to each other.

[0040] During equipment operation, the sleeve 202c-1 will sway up and down under the action of the return spring 202c-3, which will drive the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 to sway to a certain extent through the support rod 202c-7, further promoting the dynamic renewal of internal substances and making the capture reaction more complete.

[0041] Furthermore, the bearing mechanism 100 also includes an air outlet pipe 105 fixedly installed on the outside of the housing 101, an air inlet pipe 106 fixedly installed on the side of the housing 101 away from the air outlet pipe 105, several brackets 107 fixedly installed on the outside of the housing 101, an auxiliary air booster head 108 fixedly installed on the outside of the housing 101, and a top cover 109 fixedly installed on the top of the housing 101 by bolts.

[0042] The inlet pipe 106 and outlet pipe 105 are fixedly installed on opposite sides of the housing 101. This layout design allows carbon dioxide gas to enter through the inlet pipe 106 and then pass through components such as the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104, forming a countercurrent contact effect with the internal filtration and reaction media. This prolongs the contact path and time between carbon dioxide and the alkaline solution or adsorption material, which is beneficial to improving the capture effect.

[0043] In use, carbon dioxide gas enters the filter from the inlet pipe 106 and first reaches the cylinder 201. The baffle 202e turbulents the gas, and the baffle grooves 202f further distribute the gas evenly. Subsequently, the gas enters the housing 101 of the bearing mechanism 100 upward.

[0044] The stirring assembly 102 works under the drive of the servo motor 102g. The stirring rod 102a rotates, and the stirring inclined plate 102c on the outside of the sleeve 102b and the stirring vertical plate 102f on the outside of the disc 102d stir the gas. The ventilation slot 102e ensures smooth gas flow, so that the gas can fully contact the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 placed on the top of the sealing ring 103 to achieve impurity filtration.

[0045] During this process, the sleeve 202c-1 of the shaking component 202c is located at the central opening of the inner cavity of the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104. Through the cooperation of the reset spring 202c-3, the limiting plate 202c-4, the limiting channel 202c-5, the limiting block 202c-6 and the support rod 202c-7, the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 shakes, promoting the dynamic renewal of the internal filter material.

[0046] The filtered carbon dioxide gas finally flows out from the gas outlet pipe 105, providing pure carbon dioxide for the production of soda. During the operation of the equipment, the support 107 ensures the stability of the equipment, and the auxiliary gas booster head 108 can replenish gas as needed. If maintenance is required, internal inspection and maintenance can be carried out by disassembling the top cover 109.

[0047] In summary, in the supporting mechanism 100, the housing 101 provides a stable working space, the sealing ring 103 ensures good sealing of the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104, and the stirring assembly 102, driven by the servo motor 102g, uses the stirring inclined plate 102c and stirring vertical plate 102f to stir and disperse the carbon dioxide gas. The ventilation slot 102e ensures gas flow, allowing the gas to fully contact the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 and improve filtration efficiency. In the dispersion mechanism 200, the cylinder 202 is installed at the bottom of the housing 101, and the turbulence assembly 202 includes the upright rod 202a and the horizontal rod 202. d. The baffle plate 202e and the baffle groove 202f turbulent the incoming carbon dioxide gas, making its distribution more uniform. The support ring 203 ensures structural stability. The shaking component 202c causes the porous adsorption filter cartridge 104 to shake, promoting the dynamic renewal of internal substances. In addition, the layout of the air inlet pipe 106 and the air outlet pipe 105 forms a counter-current contact effect. The bracket 107 ensures that the equipment is installed firmly. The auxiliary gas booster head 108 can replenish gas. The top cover 109 facilitates maintenance. Overall, the carbon dioxide filtration effect is significantly improved, providing a high-quality gas source for soda production.
