Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lotus root powder production technology, and in particular to a production device for low-temperature quick-dissolving lotus root powder. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of lotus root starch, slurry-residue separation is a crucial step. Traditional slurry-residue separation mainly relies on filter screen technology. This method typically involves pouring the slurry into a container equipped with a filter screen, where solid particles (residue) are separated from the liquid (slurry) through the screen's pores. However, this traditional filter screen technology has the following problems: low separation efficiency. In existing slurry-residue separation devices, the filter screen is inconvenient to remove and clean during the separation process, leading to clogging of the screen by lotus root residue and affecting subsequent use. Furthermore, the lotus root residue filtered through the screen still contains a certain amount of lotus root slurry, resulting in some waste. Summary of the Invention

[0016] The following will describe in detail the embodiments of this utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation
[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0018] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a low-temperature instant lotus root starch production device includes a base plate 1. A horizontally positioned conical conveying cylinder 2 is supported on the top of the base plate 1. A spiral conveying rod 3 is rotatably connected inside the conical conveying cylinder 2. A motor 4 for driving the spiral conveying rod 3 is located at the large-diameter end of the conical conveying cylinder 2. A feed inlet 5 is located at the top of the conical conveying cylinder 2. An extrusion box 6 is opened and connected to the small-diameter end of the conical conveying cylinder 2. A collection box 7 is connected to the bottom of the conical conveying cylinder 2. A first filter plate 8 is detachably installed at the bottom of the conical conveying cylinder 2. A strip-shaped through hole is provided inside the bottom wall of the conical conveying cylinder 2, and the first filter plate 8 is slidably inserted into the through hole. Inside the hole, the first filter plate 8 extends out of the conical conveying cylinder 2 near the motor 4 and is provided with a first baffle 16. The inner side of the first baffle 16 is provided with a first sealing gasket, and the outer side of the first baffle 16 is provided with a first handle 17. A first spring buckle 18 is provided between the conical conveying cylinder 2 and the first baffle 16 and is locked and fixed by the first spring buckle 18. When the slurry enters the conical conveying cylinder 2, it is squeezed during the conveying process of the spiral conveying rod 3. During the squeezing, the lotus root slurry is filtered through the first filter plate 8 and sent to the collection box 7. When it is necessary to clean the first filter plate 8, the first spring buckle 18 can be opened and the first filter plate 8 can be pulled out directly.
[0019] The bottom of the collection box 7 is equipped with a collecting cylinder 9, and below the collecting cylinder 9 is a discharge trough 10. A second filter plate 11 is detachably installed between the collecting cylinder 9 and the discharge trough 10. A discharge pipe 12 is connected to one side of the discharge trough 10. A telescopic rod 19 is connected between the bottom of the discharge trough 10 and the bottom plate 1. A spring 20 is sleeved on the movable rod of the telescopic rod 19. The spring 20 is connected between the bottom of the discharge trough 10 and the top of the fixed rod of the telescopic rod 19. A connecting sleeve 21 is fixedly connected to the outside of the second filter plate 11, and a snap-fit sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the outside of the collecting cylinder 9. The outer side of the connecting sleeve 21 is provided with a spring buckle 23, which is engaged with the clamping sleeve 22. The connecting sleeve 21 is threaded to the top of the inner wall of the discharge trough 10. The lotus root slurry filtered by the first filter screen 8 is filtered twice by the second filter screen 11 and then enters the discharge trough 10. It is then discharged through the discharge pipe 12. When it is necessary to clean the second filter screen 11, the connecting sleeve 21 is disengaged from the clamping sleeve 22 by pressing the spring buckle 23, then pressed down to disengage it, and finally the connecting sleeve 21 is rotated to disengage it from the discharge trough 10.
[0020] The inner wall of the extrusion box 6 is detachably fitted with a third filter plate 13. The extrusion box 6 is equipped with an extrusion mechanism. The bottom of the extrusion box 6 is equipped with a sealing box cover 14. A connecting pipe 15 connected to the collecting cylinder 9 is provided on one side of the bottom of the extrusion box 6. The connecting pipe 15 is located below the third filter plate 13. The inner wall of the extrusion box 6 is equipped with a slot that matches the third filter plate 13. The third filter plate 13 is slidably inserted into the slot, and one end of the third filter plate 13 extends out of the extrusion box 6 and is fixedly connected to a second baffle 24. A second sealing gasket is provided on the inner side of the second baffle 24, and a second handle 25 is provided on the outer side of the second baffle 24. A second spring buckle 26 is provided between the extrusion box 6 and the second baffle 24 and is locked and fixed by the second spring buckle 26. The extrusion mechanism includes an extrusion plate 27 that is slidably disposed on the inner wall of the extrusion box 6 and an electric cylinder 28 disposed on the top of the extrusion box 6 to drive the extrusion plate 27 to rise and fall. The slurry and residue initially squeezed by the conical conveyor 2 enter the extrusion box 6. Then, the extrusion plate 27 is driven down by the electric cylinder 28 to be extruded again. The filtered lotus root slurry enters the collection cylinder 9 through the connecting pipe 15. When it is necessary to clean the third filter plate 13, the third filter plate 13 can be pulled out directly by opening the second spring latch 26. The lotus root residue is discharged by opening the sealing box cover 14.
[0021] In operation, the slurry and residue enter the conical conveying cylinder 2 through the feed inlet 5, and are then initially squeezed and conveyed by the screw conveyor 3. The separated lotus root slurry passes through the first filter plate 8 and enters the collection box 7, where it is filtered and separated again by the second filter plate 11. Finally, it is discharged through the discharge pipe 12. The lotus root residue enters the extrusion box 6 and is squeezed again by the extrusion plate 27. The lotus root slurry enters the collecting cylinder 9 through the connecting pipe 15, where it is filtered and separated again by the second filter plate 11. Finally, it is discharged through the discharge pipe 12. The first filter plate 8, the second filter plate 11, and the third filter plate 13 can be directly removed for cleaning, and then the sealed box cover 14 can be opened to clean the lotus root residue. This invention provides good slurry and residue separation during lotus root powder production and is convenient to use.
