Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of phytosterol filtration technology, specifically to a phytosterol filtration device. Background Technology

[0002] Phytosterols are a class of natural active ingredients found in plant oils and belong to the steroidal compound family. They are widely present in various plant-based foods such as vegetable oils, nuts, and grains. Common phytosterols include β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, and campesterol. In terms of functional applications, phytosterols have demonstrated significant value in multiple fields, including the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Filtration is a crucial step in the production of phytosterols. Crude phytosterols typically contain impurities such as unreacted raw materials, catalyst residues, pigments, colloidal substances, and other insoluble solid particles. The presence of these impurities not only affects the purity and quality of phytosterols but may also adversely impact their performance in various applications.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0023] Example: Refer to Figures 1 to 3 A phytosterol filtration device includes a body 1 and a filter press mechanism. The filter press mechanism includes a filter press transmission assembly and a pretreatment assembly. The filter press transmission assembly includes a cylinder 2 fixedly connected to the top surface of the body 1. A connecting column 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 2. A pressure plate 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting column 3. Filter plates 5 are fixedly connected between the inner walls of the body 1. A discharge trough 6 is provided at the bottom of the front side of the body 1. A first rotating shaft 7 is provided inside the body 1. The first rotating shaft 7 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the body 1 through a bearing. A transmission gear 8 is fixedly connected circumferentially to the first rotating shaft 7. A rack 9 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting column 3 through a bracket. The transmission gear 8 meshes with the rack 9. A through groove is provided on the upper surface of the body 1. The rack 9 is located in the through groove, allowing the rack 9 to move normally. The four side walls of the pressure plate 4 are all in contact with the inner wall of the body 1 to ensure the efficient operation of the pressure transmission assembly.

[0024] The pretreatment assembly includes a housing 10 fixedly connected to the side wall of the machine body 1. A second rotating shaft 11 is rotatably connected to the inner bottom surface of the housing 10 via a bearing. A first bevel gear 12 is fixedly connected to the side end of the first rotating shaft 7. A second bevel gear 13 is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 11 in the circumferential direction. The first bevel gear 12 and the second bevel gear 13 mesh with each other. Multiple stirring rods 14 are fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 11 in the circumferential direction at equal intervals. A feed trough 15 is provided on the side wall of the machine body 1. A valve is provided in the feed trough 15. The first bevel gear 12 and the second bevel gear 13 are both located inside the housing 10. The feed trough 15 is located above the filter plate 5, and the discharge trough 6 is located below the filter plate 5.

[0025] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to use the device to filter the phytosterol suspension, the phytosterol suspension is first added into the shell 10, and the storage container is placed at the output end of the discharge trough 6. Then, the cylinder 2 is started, which drives the pressure plate 4 to move downward through the connecting column 3, and then drives the rack 9 to move downward. Through meshing transmission, the transmission gear 8 and the first rotating shaft 7 are driven to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 7 drives the first bevel gear 12 to rotate, and then through meshing transmission, the second bevel gear 13 and the second rotating shaft 11 are driven to rotate. The rotation of the second rotating shaft 11 drives multiple stirring rods 14 to revolve, so as to perform pretreatment of stirring the phytosterol suspension in the shell 10.

[0026] After completing the above steps, the pressure plate 4 is lifted by the cylinder 2 and returned to the top of the machine body 1. Then, the valve at the feed trough 15 is opened, allowing the phytosterol suspension in the shell 10 to flow into the machine body 1. After completion, phytosterol suspension is added to the shell 10 and the valve is closed. At this time, the cylinder 2 is started again, and the above steps are repeated. The pressure plate 4 moves downward, and the internal pressure of the machine body 1 increases. The pressure difference is used to improve the filtration efficiency and realize the pressure filtration operation of the phytosterol suspension. At the same time, the phytosterol suspension to be pressure filtered in the shell 10 can also be stirred and pretreated, which is more in line with the actual use scenario and is conducive to improving the purity of the phytosterol solution and the product quality.
