Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage processing technology, and in particular to a filtration device for beverage processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the beverage processing industry, filtration is a crucial step in ensuring the quality and taste of drinks. Whether it's the production of juices, teas, or alcoholic beverages, filtration is essential to remove impurities, suspended solids, and sediments, thereby improving the clarity and purity of the drinks.

[0003] Currently, most commercially available beverage filtration devices employ structures such as filter screens and filter cartridges, achieving solid-liquid separation through physical interception. However, these traditional filtration devices have several shortcomings. On the one hand, during prolonged use, the filter screen or cartridge is easily clogged by impurities, leading to a sharp decline in filtration efficiency. This necessitates frequent cleaning or replacement of filter components, increasing production and maintenance costs and downtime. On the other hand, existing filtration devices struggle to flexibly adjust filtration precision, failing to meet the diverse filtration requirements of different types of beverages. Therefore, this invention proposes a filtration device for beverage processing to address the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a filtration device for beverage processing.

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

[0006] A filtration device for beverage processing includes a filter box. Two first fixing plates and two second fixing plates are fixedly connected to the side walls at both ends of the filter box. A winding roller is rotatably connected between the two first fixing plates on the same side, and a guide roller is rotatably connected between the two second fixing plates on the same side. A conveyor belt is wound around the two winding rollers. Through slots are provided on both side walls of the filter box, and the conveyor belt passes through these slots. The conveyor belt is slidably connected to the surfaces of the two guide rollers. Multiple equally spaced filter screens with different apertures are fixedly connected through the conveyor belt. A feeding mechanism for discharging materials is provided at the upper end of the filter box. A cleaning mechanism for cleaning impurities remaining on the filter screens is provided on the side walls of the filter box. A driving mechanism for driving the cleaning mechanism is also provided on the side walls of the filter box.

[0007] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a feed inlet located at the top of the filter box, and a funnel is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feed inlet.

[0008] Preferably, a first motor is fixedly connected to the side wall of one of the first fixing plates, and the end of the output shaft of the first motor is fixedly connected to the end of one of the take-up rollers.

[0009] Preferably, the take-up roller on the side away from the first motor is elastically connected to the two first fixed plates at the rotatable connection points by torsion springs.

[0010] Preferably, the cleaning mechanism includes a U-shaped plate fixedly connected to the side wall of the filter box, a rack slidably connected inside the U-shaped plate, an impact head fixedly connected to the end of the rack, and the rack and the side wall of the filter box are elastically connected by a spring.

[0011] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes two symmetrically arranged fixed blocks fixedly connected to the side wall of the filter box, and a rotating rod rotatably connected between the two fixed blocks. An incomplete gear that cooperates with a rack is fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod. A second motor is fixedly connected to the side wall of one of the fixed blocks, and the end of the output shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating rod.

[0012] Preferably, the lower end of the filter box is fixedly connected to four rectangularly distributed support legs, and a discharge port is installed on the side wall of the filter box.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. By setting up a conveyor belt and multiple filter screens, the material enters the filter box through the feed inlet and the funnel. After filtration, the material is filtered through the filter screens on the conveyor belt. After filtration, the output shaft of the first motor rotates, which drives the conveyor belt to move and rewind onto the take-up roller on the left side. This brings the previously used filter screen to the side of the filter box, making it vertical. The impurities filtered on the filter screen are then poured out, which can automatically clean the filter screen with high efficiency.

[0015] 2. By setting multiple filter screens, when different beverages need to be used and different filtration precisions need to be adjusted, the output shaft of the first motor can be driven to rotate, which drives the winding roller to rotate and the conveyor belt to move. This will drive the filter screens to move, so that the filter screen with the appropriate aperture moves to the bottom of the feeding mechanism inside the filter box. This allows for flexible adjustment of filtration precision and filtration of different types of beverages, improving the practicality of the device.

[0016] 3. By setting up a cleaning mechanism, when a deep cleaning of the used filter screen is required, such as when the filter screen is in a vertical position and the impurities stuck on the filter screen surface cannot be completely removed, the filter screen is moved to a position that cooperates with the cleaning mechanism. This drives the output shaft of the second motor to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod to rotate. This, in turn, drives the incomplete gear to rotate. When the incomplete gear meshes with the rack, the rack moves. When it does not mesh, the rack returns to its original position under the action of the spring. This allows the impact head to repeatedly impact the filter screen, knocking off the impurities stuck on the filter screen and improving the cleaning effect. Attached Figure Description

[0025] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-7 A filtration device for beverage processing includes a filter box 1. Two first fixing plates 4 and two second fixing plates 7 are fixedly connected to the side walls at both ends of the filter box 1. A winding roller 14 is rotatably connected between the two first fixing plates 4 on the same side, and a guide roller 15 is rotatably connected between the two second fixing plates 7 on the same side. A conveyor belt 5 is wound around the two winding rollers 14. Through slots 13 are provided on both side walls of the filter box 1, through which the conveyor belt 4 passes. The conveyor belt 4 is slidably connected to the surface of the two guide rollers 15. Multiple equally spaced filter screens 16 are fixedly connected through the conveyor belt 5. Multiple filter screens 16 have different apertures. A first motor 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of one of the first fixed plates 4. The output shaft of the first motor 3 is fixedly connected to the end of one of the take-up rollers 14. It should be noted that the filter screens 16 are made of flexible material. The take-up roller 14 on the side away from the first motor 3 is elastically connected to the two first fixed plates 4 through torsion springs 6. Under the action of the torsion springs 6, when it is necessary to move the conveyor belt 5 to the right, the output shaft of the first motor 3 is driven to reverse. Under the action of the torsion springs 6, the take-up roller 14 on the right side rotates, thus completing the movement of the conveyor belt 5.

[0027] Specifically, the upper end of the filter box 1 is provided with a feeding mechanism for feeding materials. The feeding mechanism includes a feed inlet 2 opened at the upper end of the filter box 1. A funnel 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feed inlet 2. The design of the funnel 12 allows the incoming materials to fall onto the filter screen 16 for filtration.

[0028] Specifically, a cleaning mechanism for cleaning impurities remaining on the filter screen 16 is provided on the side wall of the filter box 1. The cleaning mechanism includes a U-shaped plate 20 fixedly connected to the side wall of the filter box 1, a rack 19 slidably connected inside the U-shaped plate 20, an impact head 8 fixedly connected to the end of the rack 19, and the rack 19 and the side wall of the filter box 1 are elastically connected by a spring 21.

[0029] Specifically, a drive mechanism for driving the cleaning mechanism is provided on the side wall of the filter box 1. The drive mechanism includes two symmetrically arranged fixed blocks 17 fixedly connected to the side wall of the filter box 1. A rotating rod is rotatably connected between the two fixed blocks 17. An incomplete gear 18 that cooperates with the rack 19 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod. A second motor 10 is fixedly connected to the side wall of one of the fixed blocks 17. The end of the output shaft of the second motor 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating rod.

[0030] Specifically, the lower end of the filter box 1 is fixedly connected to four rectangularly distributed support legs 9, and the side wall of the filter box 1 is equipped with a discharge port 11.

[0031] In use, the material enters the filter box 1 through the feed inlet 2 and the funnel 12, and is filtered through the filter screen 16 on the conveyor belt 5. After filtration, the output shaft of the first motor 3 is rotated, which moves the conveyor belt 5 and winds it up onto the take-up roller 14 on the left side. This brings the previously used filter screen 16 to the side of the filter box 1, making it vertical, and emptying the impurities filtered onto the filter screen 16. This automatically cleans the filter screen 16. When different beverages require different filtration precisions, the output shaft of the first motor 3 is rotated, which rotates the take-up roller 14, moves the conveyor belt 5, and thus moves the filter screen 16, allowing the filter screen 16 with the appropriate aperture to be moved. Below the feeding mechanism inside the filter box 1, the filtration precision can be flexibly adjusted to filter different types of beverages. When a deep cleaning of the used filter screen 16 is required, if the impurities stuck on the surface of the filter screen 16 cannot be completely removed when the filter screen 16 is in a vertical position, the filter screen 16 is moved to a position that cooperates with the cleaning mechanism. This drives the output shaft of the second motor 10 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod to rotate, thereby driving the incomplete gear 18 to rotate. When the incomplete gear 18 meshes with the rack 19, the rack 19 moves. When it does not mesh, the rack 19 is reset under the action of the spring 21. This allows the impact head 8 to repeatedly impact the filter screen 16, knocking off the impurities stuck on the filter screen 16 and improving the cleaning effect.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
