Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit juice concentration technology, and in particular to a passion fruit membrane separation and concentration device. Background Technology

[0002] Passion fruit, also known as egg fruit, is a herbaceous vine belonging to the Passifloraceae family and the Passifloraceae genus. The plant grows to about 6 meters long and is a spice fruit. When processing passion fruit juice, a passion fruit membrane separation and concentration device is required.

[0003] A passion fruit juice concentration device with authorization announcement number "CN 216571953 U" utilizes the interplay of structures such as filter plates, support plates, rectangular frames, reverse osmosis membrane modules, and a first outlet pipe. When the pressure inside the tank increases, the passion fruit juice can be concentrated through the reverse osmosis membrane module, separating the water within the juice and thus improving the concentration effect. Through the interplay of structures such as the base plate, screw, rotor, baffle, and second outlet pipe, when the baffle is held, the rotor drives the screw to rotate, which in turn moves the baffle away from the rectangular frame, facilitating the replacement of the rectangular frame and reverse osmosis membrane module. However, after the passion fruit juice is concentrated, some juice solidification remains on the inner wall surface of the tank, requiring the tank lid to be opened and the operator to clean the inside, increasing the operator's workload and reducing work efficiency and quality. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention aims to solve the problems existing in the prior art by providing a passion fruit membrane separation and concentration device, thereby improving work efficiency and quality.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: This passion fruit membrane separation and concentration equipment includes a base and a box. The box is fixedly connected to the upper end of the base. A cleaning device is provided on the rear side of the upper end of the base. A cover opening device is provided on the left end of the box. An air inlet is fixedly connected to the right side of the upper end of the box. A liquid outlet is fixedly connected to the right side of the lower end of the base. A liquid outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the right end of the liquid outlet. The inner wall of the liquid outlet is fixedly connected to the frame.

[0006] To further improve the device, the opening mechanism includes a support block and a hydraulic cylinder. The right end of the support block is fixedly connected to the housing, and the upper end of the support block is fixedly connected to the hydraulic cylinder. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a push block, and the outer wall of the push block is fixedly connected to a protrusion. The outer wall of the protrusion is slidably connected to a slide rod, and the lower end of the slide rod is fixedly connected to an upper cover. The upper cover is movably connected to the housing via a pin.

[0007] Further improvements include sealing the top cover to the housing via a sealing gasket.

[0008] Further improvements include the placement of a reverse osmosis membrane assembly on the inner wall of the frame via grooves, and the fixed connection of support legs at the four corners of the lower end of the base.

[0009] In a further improvement, the cleaning device includes a first motor and a first housing. The lower end of the first housing is fixedly connected to the base. The first motor is fixedly connected to the first housing via a bracket. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor. A round rod is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod. The outer wall of the round rod is slidably connected to a slider. A U-shaped rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the slider. A scraper is fixedly connected to the other end of the U-shaped rod. The outer wall of the scraper is slidably connected to the housing.

[0010] In a further improvement, the output shaft of the first motor is rotatably connected to the first housing via a bearing, the two ends of the slider are slidably connected to the first housing, and the outer wall of the U-shaped rod is slidably connected to the first housing and the box body respectively.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By cooperating with the cap opening device and the cleaning device, when it is necessary to open the cap, the extension end of the hydraulic cylinder is shortened, which drives the push block to move downward. The push block drives the protrusion to move downward synchronously. The protrusion moves inside the slide rod, which drives the slide rod and the cap to rotate around the pin as the rotation center, thereby opening the cap. This makes it convenient for operators to add juice or clean the cap, and improves work efficiency.

[0012] When the inner wall of the tank needs to be scraped and cleaned, first pull the frame out from inside the liquid outlet, open the top cover, and then rinse the inner wall of the tank through the external water pipe. Start the output shaft of the first motor to rotate, which drives the rotating rod to rotate. The rotating rod drives the round rod to rotate. The round rod moves inside the slider and drives the slider to move horizontally. The slider drives the U-shaped rod to move synchronously. The U-shaped rod scrapes the inner wall of the tank to remove the residual juice solids. The fallen solids are discharged through the liquid outlet, reducing the residual juice solids on the inner wall of the tank and improving the work quality. Attached Figure Description

The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 202 is fixedly connected to a push block 203. The outer wall of the push block 203 is fixedly connected to a protrusion 204. When the push block 203 moves, it drives the protrusion 204 to move. The outer wall of the protrusion 204 is slidably connected to the slide rod 205. When the protrusion 204 moves inside the slide rod 205, it drives the slide rod 205 to move. The lower end of the slide rod 205 is fixedly connected to an upper cover 206. The upper cover 206 is movably connected to the box body 4 through a pin. The upper cover 206 rotates around the pin as the rotation center.

[0024] See attached document Figure 1-6 The cleaning device 3 includes a first motor 301 and a first housing 302. The first motor 301 is designed to meet the actual working requirements. The lower end of the first housing 302 is fixedly connected to the base 1. The first motor 301 is fixedly connected to the first housing 302 via a bracket. A rotating rod 303 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 301. A round rod 304 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod 303. The rotation of the rotating rod 303 drives the round rod 304 to move. The outer wall of the round rod 304 is slidably connected to the slider 305. While the round rod 304 moves inside the slider 305, it drives the slider 305 to move horizontally. A U-shaped rod 306 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the slider 305. While the slider 305 moves, it drives the U-shaped rod 306 to move synchronously. A scraper 307 is fixedly connected to the other end of the U-shaped rod 306. While the U-shaped rod 306 moves, it drives the scraper 307 to move synchronously. The scraper 307 is hollow in the middle. The outer wall of the scraper 307 is slidably connected to the housing 4.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] The operator opens the top cover 206 of the chamber 4 by controlling the opening device 2, pours the passion fruit juice into the chamber 4, closes the top cover 206, and fills the chamber 4 with gas through the air inlet 5. The passion fruit juice flows downward to the outlet 6, and is concentrated through the reverse osmosis membrane module 9. The water produced by the concentration process is discharged through the bottom of the outlet 6, and the concentrated passion fruit juice is discharged through the outlet pipe 7. The operator can then collect the concentrated passion fruit juice, thus completing the membrane separation and concentration process, which is consistent with the working principle in the authorization announcement number "CN 216571953 U".

[0027] The process of opening and closing the top cover:

[0028] When the top cover 206 needs to be opened, the extension end of the hydraulic cylinder 302 is shortened, causing the push block 303 to move downward. The push block 303 drives the protrusion 304 to move downward synchronously. The protrusion 304 moves inside the slide rod 305, causing the slide rod 305 and the top cover 206 to rotate around the pin as the rotation center, thereby opening the top cover 206, making it convenient for the operator to add juice or clean it. After completion, the above process is controlled again, and the operation is reversed to close the cover, completing the opening and closing process of the top cover.

[0029] Cleaning process for the enclosure:

[0030] When the inner wall of the box 4 needs to be scraped and cleaned, the outlet 6 is disassembled through the flange, the top cover 206 is opened, and the inner wall of the box 4 is rinsed through the external water pipe. At the same time, the external power supply of the first motor 301 is connected, and the output shaft of the first motor 301 is started to rotate, which drives the rotating rod 303 to rotate. The rotating rod 303 drives the round rod 304 to rotate. The round rod 304 moves inside the slider 305 and drives the slider 305 to move horizontally. The slider 305 drives the U-shaped rod 306 to move synchronously. The U-shaped rod 306 scrapes the inner wall of the box 4, thereby scraping and cleaning the residual fruit juice solidification on the inner wall of the box 4. The fallen solidification is discharged through the outlet 6. After the cleaning is completed, the above process can be reversed to complete the cleaning process of the inner wall of the box 4.

[0031] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail are possible within the scope of the claims.
