Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible oil processing, and in particular to an edible oil processing residue separator. Background Technology

[0002] Edible oil, also known as "cooking oil," refers to animal or vegetable fats used in the production of food. It is liquid at room temperature. Due to factors such as the source of raw materials, processing technology, and quality, most common edible oils are vegetable oils, including rapeseed oil, peanut oil, hemp seed oil, corn oil, olive oil, camellia oil, palm oil, sunflower seed oil, soybean oil, sesame oil, flaxseed oil, grapeseed oil, walnut oil, and peony seed oil, among others.

[0003] Edible vegetable oils require fine filtration after pressing, a crucial step in improving oil quality. Specialized separation devices can effectively separate the edible oil from impurities such as plant residue. Existing separation devices typically use centrifugal force to separate oil and residue; however, this method is relatively simple and lacks sufficient separation efficiency. Therefore, this application proposes an edible oil processing residue separator to address this technical problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an edible oil processing oil residue separator. By starting a servo motor, the centrifugal force of the rotating filter barrel separates the oil residue. At the same time, the stirring rod rotates intermittently in different directions, making the oil residue more evenly distributed. Under the action of centrifugal force, the oil and residue can be better separated into layers, improving the separation effect.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An edible oil processing residue separator includes a separation tank, a discharge pipe fixedly connected to the left side of the separation tank, a base abutting the bottom of the separation tank, four connecting grooves on the outer wall of the separation tank, the top of the outer wall of the base being connected to the inner wall of the connecting grooves via a limiting component for fixing the base, a filter tank being rotatably connected to the top of the base, a connecting block being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the separation tank, a stirring rod being rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting block, and the top of the stirring rod being connected to the bottom of the filter tank via a transmission component for moving the filter tank and the stirring rod together.

[0007] Furthermore, the limiting component includes four connecting rods fixedly connected to the top of the outer wall of the base. The outer wall of the connecting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove. A fixing ring is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the separation bucket. The outer wall of the fixing ring has four sliding grooves. The inner wall of the sliding groove is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod. The top of the fixing ring abuts against the bottom of the connecting rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the top of the fixing ring is provided with three limiting grooves, the inner wall of the limiting grooves is inserted with a fixing slider, and the rear side of the fixing slider is fixedly connected with an adjusting slider.

[0009] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a transmission rod rotatably connected to the right side of the outer wall of the separation tank, a second gear fixedly connected to the bottom end of the filter tank, gears fixedly connected to both the top and bottom ends of the transmission rod, two half gears rotatably connected to the top of the connecting block, a third gear fixedly connected to the top end of the stirring rod, and a first gear fixedly connected to the top end of the half gear.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer wall of the half gear meshes with the outer wall of the third gear, the outer wall of the second gear meshes with the outer wall of the bottom gear, and the outer wall of the first gear on the right side meshes with the top gear.

[0011] Furthermore, the top gear has a larger diameter than the bottom gear, and a seal is provided at the connection between the separation barrel and the base.

[0012] Furthermore, a servo motor is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the base, and the drive end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the second gear.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. In this utility model, by starting the servo motor, the centrifugal force of the rotating filter barrel separates the oil residue. At the same time, the stirring rod rotates intermittently in different directions, so that the oil residue is distributed more evenly. Under the action of centrifugal force, the oil and residue can be better separated into layers, thus improving the separation effect.

[0015] 2. In this utility model, by sliding the adjusting slider upward, the fixed slider is driven to slide upward, releasing the fixation of the fixed ring, allowing the fixed ring to rotate. Rotating the fixed ring releases the fixation of the connecting rod, detaching the connection between the base and the separation bucket. The base can then be removed to clean the residue inside the filter bucket, thus facilitating the cleaning of the filter bucket. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5A filter bucket 12 is rotatably connected to the top of the base 2. The centrifugal force of the rotating filter bucket 12 separates the oil residue. A connecting block 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the separation bucket 1. A stirring rod 10 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting block 8. The rotating stirring rod 10 breaks up the oil residue agglomerates, making it easier for oil droplets to be released from the oil residue, and at the same time making the oil residue more evenly distributed. Under the action of centrifugal force, the oil and residue can be better separated, improving the separation effect. A transmission rod 3 is rotatably connected to the right side of the outer wall of the separation bucket 1. A second gear 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter bucket 12. Gears are fixedly connected to both the top and bottom of the transmission rod 3. Two half gears 11 are rotatably connected to the top of the connecting block 8. A third gear 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the stirring rod 10. The third gear 9 drives the stirring rod 10 to rotate. A first tooth is fixedly connected to the top of the half gear 11. Wheel 4, the outer wall of half gear 11 meshes with the outer wall of third gear 9, the two half gears 11 mesh with third gear 9 to drive third gear 9 to rotate intermittently in different directions; the outer wall of second gear 5 meshes with the outer wall of bottom gear, the outer wall of right first gear 4 meshes with top gear, the second gear 5 meshes with the bottom gear of transmission rod 3 to drive transmission rod 3 to rotate, transmission rod 3 drives top gear to rotate and meshes with first gear 4, driving first gear 4 to rotate, the two first gears 4 drive half gear 11 to rotate; the top gear has a larger diameter than the bottom gear, a seal is provided at the connection between separation barrel 1 and base 2, servo motor 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of base 2, the drive end of servo motor 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of second gear 5, servo motor 7 drives second gear 5 to drive filter barrel 12 to rotate.

[0026] Working principle: When starting work, the servo motor 7 is activated, which drives the second gear 5 to rotate the filter barrel 12. The centrifugal force of the rotating filter barrel 12 separates the oil residue. At the same time, the second gear 5 meshes with the bottom gear of the transmission rod 3, driving the transmission rod 3 to rotate.

When it is necessary to clean the residue, slide the adjusting slider 15 upward to drive the fixed slider 14 to slide upward, release the fixation of the fixed ring 13, and allow the fixed ring 13 to rotate. Rotating the fixed ring 13 releases the fixation of the connecting rod 6, so that the connection between the base 2 and the separation tank 1 is released. Remove the base 2 to clean the residue in the filter tank 12. After cleaning, align the connecting rod 6 with the connecting groove and insert it. The connecting groove fixes the connecting rod 6 so that the base 2 cannot rotate. Rotate the fixed ring 13 so that the top of the fixed ring 13 abuts against the bottom of the connecting rod 6 so that the connecting rod 6 cannot be disengaged. At the same time, the fixed slider 14 is inserted into the limiting groove to fix the fixed ring 13.
