Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of filtration device technology, and in particular to a filtration device. Background Technology
[0002] A filtration device is used to remove impurities from high-efficiency wort. When using a filtration device, the feed pipe is inserted into the feed inlet, and then the motor drives the stirring rod to rotate, so that the high-efficiency wort can be filtered through the filter screen. This makes it easier for the craft beer brewing machine to process the high-efficiency wort well.
[0003] In their daily work, the inventors discovered that the filtration device still has at least the following problems: When using the filtration device, the feed pipe is inserted into the feed inlet, and then the motor drives the stirring rod to rotate, so that the high-efficiency wort can be filtered well through the filter screen. This makes it easier for the craft beer machine to process the high-efficiency wort well. However, in actual use, after a period of use, residue may be set on the top of the filter screen, which affects the filtration efficiency to some extent and requires manual cleaning, which is quite troublesome. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a high-efficiency wort filtration device for craft beer brewing machines.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a high-efficiency wort filtration device for a craft beer brewing machine, comprising a storage tank, a motor fixedly connected to the top of the storage tank, a stirring rod rotatably inserted into the top of the inner wall of the storage tank, the motor and the stirring rod being fixed together by bearings, a filter screen fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage tank, the bottom of the stirring rod rotatably inserted through the top of the filter screen, a feed inlet fixedly connected to the top of the storage tank, a solenoid valve fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the storage tank, a cleaning device provided on the top of the filter screen, a feed pipe provided on the top of the feed inlet, a connecting device provided at one end of the feed pipe near the feed inlet, the cleaning device comprising a sliding rod, a groove provided on one side of the top surface of the filter screen provided by the stirring rod, the inner wall of the groove being fixedly connected to the sliding rod, a sliding plate slidably sleeved on the sliding rod, a rubber strip fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate, and the rubber strip being disposed on the top of the filter screen.
[0006] The effect achieved by the above components is that when the cleaning device is used, the sliding plate slides on the inner wall of the chute, and the rubber strip can scrape the impurities stuck to the top of the filter screen together, which can reduce the frequency of cleaning the filter screen by the staff and thus improve the filtration efficiency to a certain extent.
[0007] Preferably, a first spring is sleeved on the surface of the sliding rod, one end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the groove, and the end of the first spring near the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate.
[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is that the sliding plate is pressed towards the filter screen by the first spring, so that the rubber strip can be pressed well on the top of the filter screen. When the rubber strip wears out, this may cause the rubber strip to be pressed against the top surface of the filter screen.
[0009] Preferably, a support frame is provided at one end of the stirring rod that passes through the filter screen, and round rods are uniformly fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, with the round rods slidably connected to the inner wall of the filter screen mesh.
[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is to control the support frame to be close to the filter screen, thereby allowing the round rod to pass through the mesh, thus preventing the mesh from being blocked to a certain extent.
[0011] Preferably, a damping rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the stirring rod, a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the damping rod, a second spring is sleeved on the surface of the damping rod, the top of the second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the stirring rod, one end of the second spring near the damping rod is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame, a support ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the storage tank, and protrusions are evenly fixedly connected to the top of the support ring, and the support frame is rotatably sleeved on the top of the connecting frame.
[0012] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: because the support frame is rotatably sleeved on the top surface of the connecting frame, when the stirring rod drives the connecting frame to rotate, when the connecting frame passes the protrusion, the second spring is compressed, which in turn drives the support frame rotatably sleeved on the surface of the connecting frame to move upward, so that the round rod can pass well through the mesh holes set on the filter screen.
[0013] Preferably, the connecting device includes a rubber ring, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feed inlet, and a connecting pipe is fixedly connected to one end of the feed pipe. The connecting pipe is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rubber ring, and the top of the rubber ring is uniformly provided with notches.
[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: when using the connecting device, the connecting pipe is passed through the rubber ring, which can effectively restrict the connecting pipe to the inner wall of the feed inlet, preventing the feed pipe from falling off due to the reaction force generated when the material is fed into the storage tank. The notch can increase the deformation range of the rubber ring.
[0015] Preferably, the top of the rubber ring has an arc surface, and the inner wall of the arc surface is provided with a conical ring, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting pipe.
[0016] The effect achieved by the above components is that the conical ring can be effectively squeezed through the rubber ring by the arc surface.
[0017] Preferably, a circular plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting pipe, and the circular plate is disposed on top of the rubber ring.
[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is that the circular plate is set on top of the rubber ring, thereby effectively confining one end of the feed tube inside the feed inlet.
[0019] Preferably, a limiting groove is formed at the top of the rubber ring, and a limiting ring is provided on the inner wall of the limiting groove. The limiting ring is sleeved on the surface of the connecting pipe, and the top of the limiting ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the circular plate.
[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is to squeeze the limiting ring into the inside of the limiting groove, thereby preventing the rubber ring from deforming due to the gap to a certain extent.
[0021] In this invention, by setting up a cleaning device, when using the cleaning device, the sliding plate slides on the inner wall of the chute, and the rubber strip can scrape the impurities stuck to the top of the filter screen together, which can reduce the frequency of cleaning the filter screen by the staff, thus improving the filtration efficiency to a certain extent.

[0027] Example 1, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, a high-efficiency wort filtration device for a craft beer brewing machine includes a storage tank 1 with a motor 2 fixedly connected to the top. A stirring rod 3 is rotatably inserted into the top of the inner wall of the storage tank 1. The motor 2 and the stirring rod 3 are fixed together by bearings. A filter screen 4 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage tank 1. The bottom of the stirring rod 3 is rotatably inserted through the top of the filter screen 4. A feed inlet 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the storage tank 1. A solenoid valve 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the storage tank 1. A cleaning device 8 is provided on the top of the filter screen 4. A feed pipe 6 is provided on the top of the feed inlet 5. A connecting device 9 is provided at one end of the feed pipe 6 near the feed inlet 5. When using the filtration device, the feed pipe 6 is inserted into the feed inlet 5, and the motor 2 drives the stirring rod 3 to rotate, so that the high-efficiency wort can be filtered well through the filter screen 4. This facilitates the subsequent processing of the high-efficiency wort by the craft beer brewing machine.
[0028] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The cleaning device 8 includes a sliding rod 804. A groove 801 is formed on one side of the top surface of the filter screen 4, and the inner wall of the groove 801 is fixedly connected to the sliding rod 804. A sliding plate 802 is slidably fitted onto the sliding rod 804, and a rubber strip 803 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 802. The rubber strip 803 is positioned on top of the filter screen 4. When using the cleaning device 8, the sliding plate 802 slides along the inner wall of the groove 801, and the rubber strip 803 scrapes together the impurities adhering to the top of the filter screen 4. This reduces the frequency of cleaning the filter screen 4 by the operator, thus improving cleaning efficiency. To improve filtration efficiency to a certain extent, a first spring 805 is fitted onto the surface of the sliding rod 804. One end of the first spring 805 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the slide groove 801, and the end of the first spring 805 near the sliding rod 804 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate 802. By pressing the sliding plate 802 towards the filter screen 4 through the first spring 805, the rubber strip 803 can be well pressed against the top of the filter screen 4. When the rubber strip 803 wears, this may cause the rubber strip 803 to be pressed against the top surface of the filter screen 4. The end of the stirring rod 3 that passes through the filter screen 4 is provided with... A support frame 808 has round rods 809 evenly fixedly connected to its top. The round rods 809 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the mesh of the filter screen 4, controlling the support frame 808 to approach the filter screen 4, thus allowing the round rods 809 to pass through the mesh and preventing the mesh from being blocked to some extent. A damping rod 806 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the stirring rod 3, and a connecting frame 811 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the damping rod 806. A second spring 807 is sleeved on the surface of the damping rod 806, with its top fixedly connected to the bottom of the stirring rod 3. The end of the second spring 807 near the damping rod 806 is connected to the connecting frame 811. The top is fixedly connected, and a support ring 810 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the storage tank 1. The top of the support ring 810 is evenly fixedly connected with protrusions 812. The support frame 808 is rotatably sleeved on the top of the connecting frame 811. Because the support frame 808 is rotatably sleeved on the top surface of the connecting frame 811, when the stirring rod 3 drives the connecting frame 811 to rotate, when the connecting frame 811 passes the protrusions 812, the second spring 807 is compressed, which in turn drives the support frame 808 rotatably sleeved on the surface of the connecting frame 811 to move upward. This allows the round rod 809 to pass well through the mesh holes set on the filter screen 4.
[0029] Reference Figure 4The connecting device 9 includes a rubber ring 901, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feed inlet 5. One end of the feed pipe 6 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 903, which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rubber ring 901. The top of the rubber ring 901 has evenly spaced notches 902. When using the connecting device 9, the connecting pipe 903 is passed through the rubber ring 901, effectively confining it to the inner wall of the feed inlet 5. This prevents the feed pipe 6 from detaching due to the reaction force generated when the material is fed into the storage tank 1. The notches 902 allow for greater deformation of the rubber ring 901. The top of the rubber ring 901 has an arc surface 905, and the inner wall of the arc surface 905 is provided with a conical ring 904. The conical ring 904 is connected to the connecting pipe... The surface of the connecting tube 903 is fixedly connected, and the conical ring 904 can be effectively squeezed through the rubber ring 901 by the arc surface 905. A circular plate 906 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting tube 903. The circular plate 906 is set on the top of the rubber ring 901, which effectively restricts one end of the feed tube 6 inside the feed port 5. A limiting groove 908 is opened on the top of the rubber ring 901. A limiting ring 907 is set on the inner wall of the limiting groove 908. The limiting ring 907 is sleeved on the surface of the connecting tube 903. The top of the limiting ring 907 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the circular plate 906, which squeezes the limiting ring 907 into the limiting groove 908, thereby preventing the rubber ring 901 from deforming due to the notch 902 to a certain extent.
[0030] Working principle: When using the filtration device, the feed pipe 6 is inserted into the feed inlet 5, and the motor 2 drives the stirring rod 3 to rotate, allowing the high-efficiency wort to pass through the filter screen 4 effectively. This facilitates the subsequent processing of the high-efficiency wort by the craft beer brewer. When using the cleaning device 8, the sliding plate 802 slides on the inner wall of the chute 801. The first spring 805 presses the sliding plate 802 towards the filter screen 4, thus pressing the rubber strip 803 firmly against the top of the filter screen 4. When the rubber strip 803 wears down, it may press against the top surface of the filter screen 4, scraping away impurities stuck to the top of the filter screen 4. This reduces the frequency of cleaning the filter screen 4 and improves filtration efficiency to some extent. Because the support frame 808 is rotatably sleeved on the top surface of the connecting frame 811, when the stirring rod 3 drives the connecting frame 811 to rotate... When the connecting frame 811 passes the protrusion 812, the second spring 807 is compressed, which in turn drives the support frame 808, which is rotated and sleeved on the surface of the connecting frame 811, to move upward. This allows the round rod 809 to pass through the mesh holes on the filter screen 4, thus preventing the mesh holes from being blocked to a certain extent. When using the connecting device 9, the arc surface 905 can effectively squeeze the conical ring 904 through the rubber ring 901, thus effectively restricting the connecting pipe 903 to the inner wall of the feed inlet 5, preventing the reaction force generated when the material is fed into the storage tank 1 from causing the feed pipe 6 to fall off. The notch 902 can increase the deformation range of the rubber ring 901. The round plate 906 is placed on the top of the rubber ring 901, and the limiting ring 907 is squeezed into the inside of the limiting groove 908, thus preventing the rubber ring 901 from deforming due to the notch 902 to a certain extent, thus effectively restricting one end of the feed pipe 6 inside the feed inlet 5.
[0031] It should be noted that all damping rods in this case are telescopic dampers, which can absorb energy during the extension and retraction process.
