Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of separation device technology, and in particular to a plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device. Background Technology

[0002] Solid-liquid separation in plant extract extraction is a crucial step in extracting the active ingredients from solid plant material and separating them from solid residue. This process is essential for obtaining high-purity plant extracts and is typically performed in the later stages of the plant extraction process. There are various methods for solid-liquid separation, and the choice of method depends on the properties of the extract, the extraction process, and the requirements of the final product. Filtration is the most common solid-liquid separation method, separating solids and liquids through a filter medium (such as filter paper, filter cloth, or filter screen). It is suitable for most plant extraction processes, especially for separating solid residues after extraction processes such as maceration, soaking, and extraction.

[0003] Existing solid-liquid separation devices generally use plate and frame filters, bag filters, and rotary vacuum filters for filtration. However, these solid-liquid separation devices have insufficient filtration efficiency, are prone to over-compressing the filter cake, and require manual feeding of the filter cake, which is cumbersome and inconvenient.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device to address the technical problem of the inconvenience of using existing solid-liquid separation devices.

[0005] A plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device is disclosed. The device includes a frame, a housing assembly, and a separation assembly. The housing assembly is installed on the top of the frame, and the separation assembly is disposed inside the frame. A liquid separation filter screen is provided on the side surface of the separation assembly. The separation assembly is connected to the housing assembly through the liquid separation filter screen. The separation assembly is used for stirring and breaking up the extract during the extraction process. During stirring, the liquid components are output through the liquid separation filter screen into the interlayer between the housing assembly and the separation assembly.

[0006] The separation assembly includes a stirring tank and a sealing assembly. The stirring tank is located inside the housing assembly, and the liquid separation filter is located on the side wall of the stirring tank. The stirring tank passes through the liquid separation filter to the interlayer between the housing assembly and the stirring tank. The sealing assembly is located between the stirring tank and the housing.

Each stirring blade extends from one end to the other end along the inner wall surface of the stirring cylinder, and each stirring blade is twisted at a preset angle relative to the generatrix direction of the side wall of the stirring cylinder.

[0008] In one embodiment, the above-mentioned plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device further includes a feeding pipe, a slag discharge pipe, and a liquid discharge pipe. The feeding pipe is located at one end of the stirring drum, the slag discharge pipe is located at the other end of the stirring drum relative to the feeding pipe, and the liquid discharge pipe is located on the bottom side of the side wall of the shell assembly. The feeding pipe and the slag discharge pipe are connected to the inside of the stirring drum, and the liquid discharge pipe is connected to the inside of the shell.

[0009] In one embodiment, the slag discharge pipe is provided with a material slide, the slag discharge pipe is provided on the wall at the end of the mixing drum and connects to the inside of the mixing drum; the material slide is provided at the end of the slag discharge pipe facing the mixing drum.

[0010] In one embodiment, the material chute is provided with an adjusting rod, the material chute is hinged to the slag discharge pipe, and the adjusting rod is connected to one end of the hinge shaft of the material chute.

[0015] In one embodiment, the side surface of the second housing is provided with a connecting bracket, and the second housing is fixedly connected to the frame via the connecting bracket, thereby limiting the relative rotation between the housing assembly and the frame.

[0016] In one embodiment, the frame is provided with a plurality of support rollers, which are respectively connected to the frame at both ends of the mixing drum exposed outside the shell assembly. Each support roller abuts against the side wall surface of the mixing drum, thereby enabling the mixing drum to rotate relative to the frame.

[0017] In one embodiment, the separation assembly further includes a drive motor mounted on the frame, and the output of the drive motor drives one end connected to the stirring drum, thereby enabling the drive motor to drive the stirring drum to rotate relative to the housing assembly.

[0018] The aforementioned plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device effectively prevents filtrate leakage through the gap between the stirring drum and the shell assembly via a sealing component, ensuring the plant essence extraction yield while reducing pollution in the production space.

[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 3This utility model discloses a plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device, which includes a frame 100, a housing assembly 200, and a separation component 300. The housing assembly 200 is installed on the top of the frame 100, and the separation component 300 is disposed inside the frame 100. The side surface of the separation component 300 is provided with a liquid separating filter screen 310. The separation component 300 is connected to the housing assembly 200 through the liquid separating filter screen 310. The separation component 300 is used for stirring and crushing during the essence extraction process. During the stirring process, the liquid components are output through the liquid separating filter screen 310 to the interlayer between the housing assembly 200 and the separation component 300, thereby realizing the separation between the filter residue and the filtrate. Specifically, the separation component 300 includes a stirring tank 320 and a sealing component (not shown). The stirring tank 320 is disposed inside the housing component 200, and a liquid separator 310 is disposed on the side wall of the stirring tank 320. The stirring tank 320 passes through the liquid separator 310 to the space between the housing component 200 and the stirring tank 320. The sealing component is disposed between the stirring tank 320 and the housing component 200 to ensure the sealing performance of the space between the stirring tank 320 and the housing component 200. Thus, when the filtrate inside the stirring tank 320 is introduced into the housing component 200, the sealing component can effectively prevent the filtrate from leaking through the gap between the stirring tank 320 and the housing component 200, thereby ensuring the yield of plant extracts while reducing pollution in the production space. The mixing drum 320 is equipped with several mixing blades 321, which are disposed on the inner wall of the mixing drum 320. Each mixing blade 321 extends from one end to the other along the inner wall surface of the mixing drum 320. Furthermore, each mixing blade 321 is twisted at a preset angle relative to the generatrix of the side wall of the mixing drum 320, thereby forming a torsional and inclined mixing structure relative to the rotation axis of the mixing drum 320. While achieving sufficient mixing of the filter residue, the mixing blades 321 can also be made to form a material slide by controlling the rotation direction of the mixing drum 320. This facilitates the guidance of the filter residue to the discharge port through the mixing blades 321, reducing the complexity of the equipment structure, improving the controllability of the filter residue discharge, and the convenience of equipment maintenance.

[0029] Furthermore, the plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device also includes a feeding pipe 400, a slag discharge pipe 500, and a filtrate discharge pipe 600. The feeding pipe 400 is located at one end of the stirring drum 320, the slag discharge pipe 500 is located at the other end of the stirring drum 320 opposite to the feeding pipe 400, and the filtrate discharge pipe 600 is located on the bottom side of the side wall of the shell assembly 200. The feeding pipe 400 and the slag discharge pipe 500 are connected to the interior of the stirring drum 320, and the filtrate discharge pipe 600 is connected to the interior of the shell assembly 200. The feeding pipe 400 can feed materials into the stirring drum 320, and then the stirring drum 320 stirs the materials by rotating. At the same time, the filtrate that enters the interior of the shell assembly 200 can be discharged to the external filtrate collection device through the filtrate discharge pipe 600, while the filter residue is discharged to the external filter residue collection device by the slag discharge pipe 500 under the push of the stirring blades 321.

[0030] Furthermore, the slag discharge pipe 500 is equipped with a material slide 510. The slag discharge pipe 500 is located on the wall of the end of the mixing drum 320 and connects to the interior of the mixing drum 320. The material slide 510 is located at the end of the slag discharge pipe 500 facing the mixing drum 320, and is used to receive the filter residue driven to the end of the mixing drum 320 by the mixing blades 321, so that the filter residue can slide into the slag discharge pipe 500 through the material slide 510 to complete the slag discharge work. Specifically, the material slide 510 is equipped with an adjusting rod 520. The material slide 510 is hinged to the slag discharge pipe 500, and the adjusting rod 520 is connected to one end of the hinge shaft of the material slide 510, so that the operator can adjust the setting angle of the material slide 510 through the adjusting rod 520.

[0031] Furthermore, the housing assembly 200 includes a first housing assembly 210 and a second housing assembly 220, which are fastened to the side surface of the mixing drum 320 in a snap-fit ​​manner to form a closed receiving space.

[0032] Furthermore, the sealing assembly includes several sealing rings (not shown), which are disposed at the joint between the housing assembly 200 and the side wall of the stirring cylinder 320, thereby ensuring the sealing of the interlayer formed between the housing assembly 200 and the stirring cylinder 320.

[0033] Furthermore, in one embodiment, a sealing ring is also provided at the junction of the feeding pipe 400 and the mixing drum 320 to prevent material from leaking out from the junction of the feeding pipe 400 and the mixing drum 320 during the feeding process; in another embodiment, a sealing ring is also provided at the junction of the slag discharge pipe 500 and the mixing drum 320 to prevent material from leaking out from the junction of the slag discharge pipe 500 and the mixing drum 320 during the slag discharge process.

[0034] Furthermore, a connecting bracket 221 is provided on the side surface of the second housing assembly 220, and the second housing assembly 220 is fixedly connected to the frame 100 through the connecting bracket 221, thereby limiting the relative rotation between the housing assembly 200 and the frame 100.

[0035] Furthermore, the frame 100 is provided with a plurality of support rollers 110, which are respectively connected to the frame 100 at both ends of the mixing drum 320 exposed outside the shell assembly 200. Each support roller abuts against the side wall surface of the mixing drum 320, thereby enabling the mixing drum 320 to rotate relative to the frame 100.

[0036] Furthermore, the separation component 300 also includes a drive motor 330, which is mounted on the frame 100. The output end of the drive motor 330 drives one end of the stirring drum 320, thereby enabling the drive motor 330 to drive the stirring drum 320 to rotate relative to the shell component 200, so as to stir the material and ensure the normal operation of the separation work.

[0037] In summary, the plant essence filter residue and filtrate separation device disclosed in this utility model effectively prevents filtrate leakage through the gap between the stirring drum and the shell assembly via a sealing component, ensuring the plant essence extraction yield while reducing pollution in the production space. The stirring drum is equipped with several stirring blades disposed on the inner wall of the drum. Each stirring blade extends from one end to the other along the inner wall surface of the drum, and each stirring blade is twisted at a preset angle relative to the generatrix of the drum's side wall, thus forming a torsional and inclined mixing structure relative to the drum's rotation axis. This achieves thorough mixing of the filter residue while also allowing the stirring blades to form a material sliding channel by controlling the rotation direction of the drum. This facilitates guiding the filter residue to the discharge port via the stirring blades, reducing the complexity of the equipment structure, improving the controllability of filter residue discharge, and enhancing the convenience of equipment maintenance.

For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described.
