[0002] As we all know, there are many beverages on the market produced using different processes. Enzyme beverages refer to drinks containing a variety of enzyme metabolites extracted from a large group of enzymes derived from plants and microorganisms. During the production process, enzymes need to be mixed and stirred with different fruit juices to enhance the flavor and provide the human body with certain vitamins and sugars. However, during the production process, some fruit pulp sediment may appear in the fruit juice and enzyme beverages. This sediment can affect the taste and cause consumers to reject the beverages. Therefore, enzyme beverages need to be filtered.

[0003] Patent application CN202322586105.7 discloses a filtration and mixing device for producing pomegranate enzyme beverages. It uses a stirring mechanism above a mixing tank to agitate the raw materials and a filtering mechanism to filter the mixed enzyme beverage. A pneumatic stirring motor and a half-gear rotate, and through the cooperation of a return spring and a connecting plate, the filter screen on the rack moves left and right, facilitating filtration of the mixed materials and improving the filtration effect. While this device effectively removes fruit pulp sediment during filtration, the filtered material remains on the filter screen. Over time, the filter holes are easily clogged by residue, requiring frequent shutdowns for cleaning, thus affecting production efficiency. Utility Model Content

The area of ​​the observation window 210 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the collection cylinder 420, that is, the diameter of the observation port is larger than the diameter of the collection cylinder 420, so that the collection cylinder 420 can be removed from the observation port, which facilitates regular cleaning of the collection cylinder 420 and reduces maintenance costs.

[0026] Specifically, the support wall 410 of the first filter component 400 has a circular through hole in the middle, and a spiral locking position is provided on the inner side wall of the circular through hole. The outer diameter of the collection cylinder 420 is the same as the inner diameter of the circular through hole, and the outer wall of the collection cylinder 420 has a groove that matches the spiral locking position, so that the collection cylinder 420 is spirally locked in the circular through hole, which facilitates quick installation and disassembly, and forms a sealing structure in the cylindrical through hole to prevent impurities from leaking.

A guide strip is provided on the side wall of the first filter screen 510, and the guide strip slides into the limiting groove. The distance from the side wall where the push rod of the first filter screen 510 is located to the opposite side wall is less than the distance between the bottoms of the two limiting grooves in the same direction. The distance from the side wall where the push rod of the first filter screen 510 is located to the opposite side wall is greater than the distance between the two fixed protruding ends. When the telescopic cylinder 520 is activated, the push rod drives the first filter screen 510 to slide within the limiting groove, improving filtration efficiency. A sealing gasket is provided at the connection between the first filter screen 510 and the limiting groove to ensure that liquid does not leak. It is worth noting that the telescopic cylinder 520 is connected to an external air pump via an air pipe, and a valve is provided on the air pipe. Controlling the cylinder's operation via an air pump is a technique known to those skilled in the art and is achievable; therefore, it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0028] Furthermore, the third filter component 600 includes a frame 610 and a second filter screen 620 fixed within the frame 610. The second filter screen 620 is an ultrafiltration membrane capable of separating small molecule active substances while retaining colloids, bacterial residues, and other substances. The frame 610 has slide rails on both sides, which cooperate with a groove on the inner wall of the outlet 220. The frame 610 can slide along the groove. The size and shape of the frame 610 are the same as the size and shape of the groove, ensuring that the third filter component 600 fits tightly against the groove when fixed within it. A sealing plate 611 is provided at the end of the frame 610 near the opening. The shape of the sealing plate 611 is the same as the shape of the opening, and the sealing plate 611 fits tightly against the opening to prevent filtration of excess material. Liquid leakage during the process; a handle 630 is provided on the outside of the sealing plate 611, which is convenient for the operator to hold the handle 630 and easily push the frame 610 to slide along the slide groove to realize the quick installation and disassembly of the third filter component 600; in order to improve the stability of the third filter component 600, a latch 221 is provided above and below the opening. The latch 221 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the outlet 220. Rotating the latch 221 can make the latch 221 abut against the outer wall of the sealing plate 611, further fixing the sealing plate 611; at the lower end of the outlet 220, that is, below the third filter component, a second solenoid valve 222 is provided. The opening and closing of the outlet 220 is controlled by the second solenoid valve 222 to ensure that the filtered liquid is discharged smoothly.

[0029] Specifically, the pore size of the first filter is larger than that of the first filter screen 510, and the pore size of the first filter screen 510 is larger than that of the second filter screen 620. Larger particulate impurities are filtered out by the first filter element 400, and finer particles, such as yeast, microorganisms, and fine sediments, are further filtered out by the second filter element 500. Colloidal substances, bacterial remains, etc. are retained by the third filter element 600. Through the synergistic effect of the three-layer filtration structure, the purity of the filtrate is ensured and the product quality is improved.

[0030] The general workflow of this utility model is as follows:

[0031] Close the first solenoid valve 121, and inject the enzyme beverage into the filter tank 200 through the inlet 110. Start the stirring motor 310 to drive the stirring rod 320 to rotate, so that the enzyme beverage is evenly mixed. Then, open the first solenoid valve 121 and the second solenoid valve 222, and the liquid enters the filter tank 200 through the connecting pipe 120. The liquid first passes through the first filter component 400 to remove larger particles of impurities, and the large particles will slide down the support wall 410 into the collection cylinder 420. The liquid then passes through the first filter screen 510, where fine particles such as yeast and microorganisms are further intercepted. During this process, the telescopic cylinder 520 is activated, and the push rod drives the first filter screen 510 to move, improving the filtration effect. The liquid finally passes through the second filter screen 620, where colloids and bacterial remains are completely intercepted, ensuring that the filtrate meets the high purity standard. The filtered raw material is discharged from the outlet 220 and collected in the storage tank for further processing.
