[0002] In tea beverage production, filtration and separation is a crucial step. As consumers increasingly demand higher quality tea beverages, while existing filtration and separation systems have achieved significant results in tea beverage production, some technological limitations remain. Traditional filtration and separation technologies are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of modern tea beverage production. For example, for certain specific tea beverage components or impurities, more advanced filtration technologies or materials may be required for effective separation and removal.
[0003] First, existing filtration and separation technologies frequently face membrane clogging issues in tea beverage production, which affects productivity and may lead to a decline in beverage quality. Membrane clogging is typically caused by tea residue, impurities, and microorganisms, and current membrane filtration technologies struggle to handle smaller impurities, resulting in residue problems.
[0004] Secondly, existing filtration and separation technologies typically involve complex equipment and materials, resulting in potentially high initial investment costs. Furthermore, system maintenance and upkeep are also significant costs. Regular cleaning and replacement of membrane elements are necessary to ensure proper system operation and filtration effectiveness. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a highly efficient dual-effect filtration and separation system for tea beverage production. Utility Model Content

A hollow fiber filter membrane 7 is installed in the primary filtration chamber 14, with the left side of the hollow fiber filter membrane 7 being inclined and connected to the primary filter residue outlet 8.
[0027] A flushing pipe 13 is connected to the bottom of the flushing chamber 1, and the flushing pipe 13 is connected to the drain pipe 6 to enter the primary filtration chamber 14, and is connected to the lower part of the primary filtration chamber 14. Water stop valves are provided above and below the flushing pipe 13.
[0028] The feed filter chamber 5 is connected to the reaction chamber 16 via the first discharge pipe 29 at the bottom. The reaction chamber 16 is located to the right of the feed filter chamber 5, and a collection filter chamber 27 is located below the reaction chamber 16. The top of the reaction chamber 16 is provided with a reagent inlet 15, and an LED control display screen 20 is provided on its surface. The LED control display screen 20 is externally connected to the reaction chamber control unit, and red and green signal lights are provided to the right of the LED control display screen 20.
[0029] The bottom of the reaction chamber 16 is connected to the collection and filtration chamber 27 via a second discharge pipe 18. A stop valve 17 is installed on the second discharge pipe 18 and its switch is controlled by the reaction chamber control unit. A sedimentation filter screen 19 is installed inside the collection and filtration chamber 27. A third discharge pipe 25 is connected to the right side of the collection and filtration chamber 27, and a water tap 22 is connected to the third discharge pipe 25. A tea collection box 23 is placed below the water tap 22. Both the first discharge pipe 29 and the third discharge pipe 25 are equipped with booster pumps.
[0030] The system device has a mounting base 28 at the bottom, with casters 24 mounted on the bottom of the mounting base 28; mounting frames 11 are provided on both the left and right sides of the mounting base 28, and a support base 11 is installed on the right side of the mounting frame 11. The primary filter cake collection box 9, the rinsing liquid filtrate collection box 31, and the sedimentation filter cake collection box 21 are respectively placed on the support base 11. The feed filter chamber 5 and the collection filter chamber 27 are welded to the mounting base by brackets.
[0031] This utility model provides a dual-effect filtration and separation system for tea production, the filtration process of which is as follows:
[0032] S1. The tea beverage enters the first storage chamber 4 through the tea beverage inlet 2. When the liquid level sensor in the first storage chamber 4 detects that the liquid level has reached the maximum storage height of the first storage chamber 4, the external control unit controls the closing of the inlet switch 3, and the tea beverage stops entering.
[0033] S2. The tea beverage arriving at the first storage chamber 4 enters the feed filtration chamber 14 through the drain pipe 6. It passes through the hollow fiber filter membrane 7 to remove suspended particles, bacteria and microorganisms and macromolecules from the tea beverage. The filtered residue is conveyed by the conveyor belt at the primary residue outlet and collected in the primary residue collection box 9.
[0034] S3. At this time, open the stop valve of the first drain pipe below the feed filter chamber 14, and let the tea that has undergone the first filtration through the first drain pipe and turn on the booster pump. Open the stop valve on the side near the reaction chamber 16, and under the action of the booster pump, suck the tea remaining in the feed filter chamber 14 into the reaction chamber 16.
[0035] S4. After the tea enters the reaction chamber 16, close the stop valve on the side of the first drain pipe near the reaction chamber 16. At this time, the stop valve 17 on the second drain pipe 18 is closed. Add safe and non-toxic chemical agents that meet food safety standards to the chemical inlet 15 to generate precipitates to remove macromolecular substances such as proteins and pectin from the tea. Monitor whether the chemical reaction is complete through the LED control display screen of the external reaction chamber control unit set on the surface of the reaction chamber 16. If the reaction is complete, the green light on the right side of the LED control display screen will light up. At this time, the stop valve 17 on the second drain pipe 18 will open, and the reacted tea will enter the collection and filtration chamber 27 through the second drain pipe 18.
[0036] S5. The generated precipitate is conveyed to the precipitate collection box 21 through the conveyor belt on the precipitate filter outlet of the filter screen 19. The filtered tea drinks accumulate in the collection filter chamber 27. Turn on the booster pump 26 and the faucet 22 on the third discharge pipe 25 to discharge the tea drinks and collect them into the tea drink collection box for subsequent chemical residue testing.
[0037] In practical applications, the size of the filter can be selected according to the specific circumstances of the tea drink and the characteristics of the sediment.
[0038] This utility model provides a dual-effect filtration and separation system for tea production. The cleaning process is as follows: After the tea is completely filtered, the rinsing liquid is stored in the rinsing chamber 1 at the top of the feed filtration chamber 5. The bottom of the rinsing chamber 1 is connected to the rinsing pipe 13, which is connected to the drain pipe 6 and enters the primary filtration chamber 14. The rinsing pipe 13 is connected to the lower part of the primary filtration chamber 14. There are water stop valves above and below the rinsing pipe 13. When rinsing is required, the water stop valve above the rinsing pipe is opened and the water stop valve connected to the rinsing pipe below the primary filtration chamber 14 is closed, thereby cleaning the drain pipe 6 and the primary filtration chamber 14. After soaking, the water stop valve connected to the rinsing pipe below the primary filtration chamber 14 is opened to release the rinsing liquid filtrate and collect it in the rinsing liquid filtrate tank 31 below the rinsing pipe 13.
[0039] Therefore, this utility model provides a dual-effect filtration and separation system for tea production, which has the advantages of high-efficiency filtration and separation, effectively removes harmful substances and microorganisms from tea, saves manpower and resources, and reduces costs.
