Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of yogurt production technology, and in particular to a yogurt filtration device. Background Technology

[0002] Yogurt is generally made from animal milk, such as cow's or sheep's milk, through fermentation with lactic acid bacteria. To improve the texture of yogurt and make it more delicate and smooth, the fermented yogurt is usually filtered to remove impurities such as coagulation and curds.

[0003] Current methods for filtering yogurt typically involve pouring the yogurt ingredients directly into a filter box. However, this can easily lead to the filter screen becoming clogged with coagulated substances and impurities from the yogurt, thus affecting the filtration efficiency and resulting in poor filtration performance. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a yogurt filtration device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A yogurt filtration device includes a filter box, in which a downwardly inclined filter cylinder is rotatably installed. The filter cylinder has filter holes circumferentially. The filter box has a feed inlet and a liquid outlet. One end of the filter cylinder has a through hole corresponding to the feed inlet. The other end of the filter cylinder has a baffle with a residue outlet hole. The through hole is positioned higher than the baffle. The liquid outlet is located below the filter cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, a baffle ring is fixedly installed inside the filter cartridge, and a guide plate located below the baffle ring is installed inside the filter box. The feed inlet, liquid outlet, and baffle ring are located on the same side of the guide plate.

[0008] Preferably, the filter box is provided with an annular liquid guide plate that is inclined downward and extends into the through hole.

[0009] Preferably, the liquid guide plate has a notch, and the feed inlet is distributed vertically and vertically corresponding to the notch.

[0010] Preferably, the feed inlet is provided with a feed pipe that extends toward the notch side.

[0011] Preferably, the filter box is provided with a slag outlet, and the upper and lower ends of the filter cylinder are respectively located on positioning ring one and positioning ring two, and the positioning ring two is provided with a slag discharge hole corresponding to the slag outlet.

[0012] Preferably, a side plate is rotatably provided on one side of the filter box.

[0013] Preferably, the filter box is provided with a mounting plate for installing a motor, and the output end of the motor passes through the filter box and is connected to the baffle.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. An inclined filter cylinder is installed in the filter box. Yogurt enters the rotating filter cylinder through the inlet and through hole for filtration. The yogurt falls through the filter hole of the rotating filter cylinder to the liquid outlet for output. Meanwhile, the solids and coagulated impurities in the yogurt move down with the inclined rotating filter cylinder to the residue outlet for discharge, so as to avoid the continuous accumulation of impurities in the yogurt and blockage of the filter hole, making the yogurt filtration more efficient and effective.

[0016] 2. By fixing a baffle ring inside the filter cartridge and setting a guide plate below the baffle ring, the baffle ring is used to block the flowing yogurt entering the filter cartridge to prevent the yogurt from flowing further into the residue outlet and affecting the yogurt filtration effect. The guide plate guides the falling yogurt filtered by the filter cartridge, so that the filtered yogurt can flow more reliably into the liquid outlet for output. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0025] In the description of this specification, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or unit referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a yogurt filtration device includes a filter box 1, in which a downwardly inclined filter cylinder 2 is rotatably installed. The filter box 1 has an inlet 11 and an outlet 13, with the outlet 13 located below the filter cylinder 2. The inlet 11 and the outlet 13 are arranged vertically opposite each other on one side of the filter box 1. The inlet 11 is used to feed the yogurt to be filtered into the filter box 1, and the outlet 13 is used to output the yogurt filtered by the filter cylinder 2.

[0027] Specifically, one end of the filter cylinder 2 is provided with a through hole 22 corresponding to the feed inlet 11. The yogurt enters the rotating filter cylinder 2 through the feed inlet 11 and the through hole 22 for filtration. The filter cylinder 2 is provided with filter holes 21 in the circumference. The yogurt is filtered through the filter holes 21 and falls to the liquid outlet 13 for output.

[0028] The other end of the filter cylinder 2 is provided with a baffle 23 with a residue outlet 231. The through hole 22 is set higher than the baffle 23 so that the yogurt entering the filter cylinder 2 tends to flow from the through hole 22 to the baffle 23. That is, as the yogurt flows, the filter hole 21 filters the yogurt, allowing the yogurt to fall through the filter hole 21 to the liquid outlet 13. Meanwhile, the coagulated matter and other impurities in the yogurt are tilted down by the rotating filter cylinder 2 and discharged through the residue outlet 231. This prevents the impurities in the yogurt from accumulating and clogging the filter hole 21, so that the filter cylinder 2 always has a good filtration effect, thereby making the yogurt filtration more efficient and effective.

[0029] A baffle ring 24 is fixedly installed inside the filter cylinder 2. One side of the baffle ring 24 is fixed to the inner circumference of the filter cylinder 2, and the other side of the baffle ring 24 extends inward at an incline. The baffle ring 24 is used to block the flowing yogurt entering the filter cylinder 2 to prevent the yogurt from flowing further into the residue outlet 231 and affecting the filtration effect of the yogurt. This ensures that the yogurt to be filtered can be fully filtered to prevent some yogurt from being discharged with impurities.

[0030] Specifically, impurities in the yogurt move as the filter cartridge 2 rotates and can pass over the baffle ring 24 and continue to move backward. That is, the impurities pass through the baffle ring 24 and continue to move towards the residue outlet 231 so that the filtered impurities in the yogurt can be discharged through the residue outlet 231. Furthermore, the baffle ring 24 not only limits the flow of yogurt but also does not interfere with the discharge of impurities, thus ensuring that the filter cartridge 2 always has a good yogurt filtration effect.

[0031] The filter box 1 is equipped with a guide plate 12 located below the baffle ring 24. The feed inlet 11, the liquid outlet 13, and the baffle ring 24 are located on the same side of the guide plate 12. The guide plate 12 guides the yogurt filtered by the filter cartridge 2 to flow more reliably into the liquid outlet for output, so as to avoid the yogurt from splashing when it falls.

[0032] To make the feeding and conveying of yogurt more reliable, the filter box 1 is provided with an annular liquid guide plate 17 that is inclined downward and extends into the through hole 22. One end of the liquid guide plate 17 is fixedly set on the inner side wall of the filter box 1, and a notch 171 is opened on the liquid guide plate 17. The feed inlet 11 and the notch 171 are distributed vertically to allow the yogurt to be conveyed into the filter cylinder 2 through the feed inlet 11, the notch 171, and the liquid guide plate 17 for filtration.

[0033] Furthermore, a conveying pipe 18 is provided on the feed inlet 11. The conveying pipe 18 extends toward the notch 171 and is fixedly installed in the filter box 1. The yogurt is guided through the conveying pipe 18 and cooperates with the annular liquid guide plate 17 to prevent splashing when the yogurt is poured into the filter cylinder 2.

[0034] A side plate 19 is rotatably provided on one side of the filter box 1. The side plate 19 can rotate and open the inside of the filter box 1 to facilitate cleaning of components such as the filter cartridge 2 inside the filter box 1.

[0035] The filter box 1 is provided with a mounting plate 31 for mounting the motor 3. The output end of the motor 3 passes through the filter box 1 and is connected to the baffle 23 so as to drive the filter cartridge 2 to rotate slowly. Furthermore, the upper and lower ends of the filter cartridge 2 are respectively located on the positioning ring 15 and the positioning ring 26. The two ends of the filter cartridge 2 rotate and abut against the positioning ring 15 and the positioning ring 26 so as to limit and guide the rotation of the filter cartridge 2 through the positioning ring 15 and the positioning ring 26.

[0036] The filter box 1 is provided with a slag outlet 14, which is located at the bottom of the filter box 1 and distributed on both sides of the filter box 1 opposite to the liquid outlet 13. The positioning ring 231 is provided with a slag discharge hole 161 corresponding to the slag outlet 14. The impurities in the yogurt are discharged outward after passing through the slag outlet hole 231, the slag discharge hole 161, and the slag outlet 14.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
