Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically to an oil separator vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Hot pot, a popular food, has seen its broth production scale expand rapidly. In the current hot pot broth production process, stir-frying the ingredients in oil is an essential step to impart a rich and mellow aroma. During this process, various spices such as chili peppers, star anise, cinnamon, and Sichuan peppercorns are thoroughly mixed with the oil to create a unique flavor. However, after stir-frying, the oil and ingredients need to be separated for subsequent processing and packaging.

[0003] Currently, many related technical solutions have been disclosed. For example, an automated production line for beef tallow hot pot base (patent publication number CN205455873U) first sends the stir-fried base into a sealed tank, then from the sealed tank to a separator. The separated residue is discharged through the residue outlet, while the oil is directly pumped into a filling machine. Additionally, a hot pot base stir-frying equipment and process (patent publication number CN117256893A) similarly sends the stir-fried base to a separation device for solid-liquid separation. After separation, the base is transferred to a solid tank and an oil tank for temporary storage (the oil tank for temporary storage is also referred to as an oil storage tank in this text), and then filled and packaged by a filling and packaging equipment.

[0004] However, these existing production methods have significant drawbacks. During the separation of hot pot base, despite the solid-liquid separation process, a large amount of small-sized / particulate residue remains in the oil. If this residue is sent directly to subsequent processes without further effective filtration, it will cause numerous serious problems. Because production pipelines are typically long, the residue easily accumulates in subsequent transport pipelines. On the one hand, over time, this residue gradually builds up, causing pipeline blockages. Once blocked, a significant amount of time and manpower is required for unblocking, severely impacting production efficiency and increasing production costs. On the other hand, after settling in the pipelines, the residue is likely to deteriorate due to the special composition of hot pot base and the production environment. Deteriorated residue will mix into the oil, affecting the overall quality of the hot pot base, reducing the product's taste and safety, and damaging the company's brand image and market competitiveness. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to provide an oil separation vehicle to solve the problem of pipeline blockage caused by incomplete oil filtration in existing solid-liquid separation equipment during the production of hot pot base.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An oil separator is used to re-filter the oil separated by a solid-liquid separation device. It includes a separator body with an open top. The separator body has an inlet cavity and an outlet cavity. The inlet cavity is equipped with a first filter screen. The outlet cavity is connected to an outlet pipe. The inlet cavity and the outlet cavity are connected by a second filter screen. The first filter screen is located above the second filter screen and forms a downward indentation in the inlet cavity. The oil separated by the solid-liquid separation device is aligned with the first filter screen.

[0008] The principle and advantages of this scheme are as follows: the oil separated by the solid-liquid separation equipment first passes through the first filter screen for preliminary filtration and enters the feed passage chamber. Then the oil flows through the second filter screen into the discharge chamber and is finally discharged from the discharge pipe of the discharge chamber.

[0009] This solution is equivalent to adding an oil separation vehicle between the solid-liquid separation equipment and the oil storage tank. It achieves secondary filtration after solid-liquid separation, ensuring that the oil sent to the subsequent process pipeline is purer and has less residue, thereby reducing pipe blockage and hot pot base quality problems caused by residue deposition in the pipe.

[0010] In addition, the presence of the oil separator extends the flow path of the oil, and the open design of the separator body allows the oil with a relatively high temperature separated in the original solid-liquid separation equipment to be cooled down slightly.

[0011] In addition, the first filter screen has a downward indentation, which makes it easy to manually remove the residue when there is too much residue on the first filter screen.

[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, the first filter screen is a metal wire mesh.

[0013] Preferably, as an improvement, the metal wire mesh is detachably connected around the top opening of the feed receiving cavity.

[0014] Preferably, as an improvement, the bottom of the separating vehicle body has movable wheels.

[0015] Preferably, as an improvement, the mesh size of the first filter screen is smaller than that of the second filter screen.

[0016] This invention uses a metal wire mesh as the first filter screen and forms a second filter screen by processing a mesh on a metal plate. This method makes the mesh of the metal wire mesh finer than a second filter screen with perforations on the metal plate, and the metal wire mesh as a whole is more flexible. Firstly, the metal wire mesh can filter out the vast majority of the material residue, reducing the probability of residue entering the discharge chamber. The function of the second filter screen is twofold: to allow the filtered oil to flow into the discharge chamber, and to reduce the disturbance of the existing oil by newly entering oil, thereby helping the finer residue that was not filtered to settle in the separator body.

[0017] Preferably, as an improvement, a filter frame is suspended inside the separation vehicle body. The top of the filter frame is open, and the inner space of the filter frame forms a feeding cavity. Filter screens are provided around the filter frame, and the filter screens around the filter frame are the second filter screens.

[0018] Preferably, as an improvement, the filter frame is a square frame, and at least two of the four sides at the top of the square frame are fixed with an extension edge for easy hanging. The extension edge is perpendicular to the side of the filter frame and extends outward, so as to facilitate quick removal when the filter frame needs to be cleaned.

[0019] Preferably, as an improvement, each side of the top of the filter frame is fixed with an upward protrusion, and the first filter screen is fixed by clamping it onto the protrusion. The structure is simple, easy to implement, and facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the wire mesh.

[0020] Preferably, as an improvement, the bottom of the recess is arc-shaped. This facilitates the scooping of the filtered residue and also increases the contact area between the residue and the oil to be separated. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method:

[0027] The reference numerals in the accompanying drawings include: the separator body 10, the discharge receiving cavity 11, the liquid discharge pipe 12, the moving wheel 13, the handrail 14, the filter frame 40, the second filter screen 41, the first filter screen 42, the extension edge 43, the protrusion 44, the solid-liquid separation device 20, the oil storage tank 30, the pump unit 50, the liquid discharge pipe of the solid-liquid separation device 21, and the clamp 60.

[0028] The basic implementation examples are as follows: Figures 1 to 5 As shown.

[0029] An oil separator is installed between a solid-liquid separator 20 and an oil storage tank 30. It is used to re-filter the oil separated by the solid-liquid separator 20. The separator includes a separator body 10 with a receiving tank. The receiving tank is closed on all four sides and open at the top. A filter frame 40 is hung in the receiving tank of the separator body 10. The top of the filter frame 40 is open, that is, the filter frame 40 extends downward into the receiving tank. The filter frame 40 forms a feeding receiving cavity. The remaining cavity in the receiving tank is the discharge receiving cavity 11.

[0030] The filter frame 40 is square and smaller than the size of the receiving tank. All four sides of the filter frame 40 are equipped with second filter screens 41, thus connecting the feed receiving chamber and the discharge receiving chamber 11. The second filter screens 41 consist of multiple arrayed holes machined into a metal plate. The bottom of the filter frame 40 is not perforated, and the bottom of the filter frame 40 is a certain distance from the bottom of the receiving tank to allow it to collect a certain amount of slag.

[0031] At least two of the four sides of the top of the square filter frame 40 are fixed with an extension edge 43 for easy hanging. The extension edge 43 is perpendicular to the side of the filter frame 40 and extends outward. In this embodiment, the extension edge 43 is provided on three of the sides, and all the extension edges 43 form a whole, so that the filter frame 40 can be directly hung on the top edge of the separation vehicle body 10 through the extension edge 43, and it is also convenient to quickly remove the filter frame 40 when it needs to be cleaned.

[0032] Each edge of the top of the filter frame 40 is fixed with an upward protrusion 44. The feed receiving cavity is provided with a first filter screen 42. The first filter screen 42 is made of soft metal wire mesh. Multiple clips 60 are used to clamp the edges of the first filter screen 42 onto the protrusions 44 respectively, so that the first filter screen 42 is concave downward in an arc shape in the feed receiving cavity.

[0033] The end of the discharge cavity 11 away from the feed cavity is connected to the bottom of the cavity via a liquid outlet pipe 12, which is used to connect to the oil storage tank 30 of the next process via the pump unit 50.

[0034] The oil separated by the solid-liquid separation device 20 is aligned with the first filter screen 42. The mesh size of the first filter screen 42 is smaller than that of the second filter screen 41.

[0035] The bottom of the separation vehicle body 10 is equipped with casters 13 for easy transfer and position adjustment.

[0036] To facilitate pushing the separation vehicle body 10, a handrail 14 for easy pushing is installed on the separation vehicle body 10.

[0037] Operating Procedure: The oil separated by the solid-liquid separator 20 is first filtered through the first filter screen 42, which removes the vast majority of the residue. The filtered residue is periodically scooped out manually from the first filter screen 42. After being filtered by the first filter screen 42, the oil is less disturbed by the second filter screen 41, which helps the finer residue that passed through the first filter screen 42 to settle in the separator body, so that the separated oil contains very little residue when it is discharged from the outlet pipe 12.

[0038] Compared with the prior art, the filtration effect of this embodiment is improved: an oil separation vehicle is added between the solid-liquid separation device 20 and the oil storage tank 30, which realizes the second filtration after solid-liquid separation, ensuring that the oil sent to the pipeline of the next process is purer and there is less residue, reducing the pipe blockage problem caused by residue deposition in the pipe, and ensuring the quality of hot pot base.

[0039] Cooling effect: The oil separator extends the flow path of the oil, and the open design of the separator body 10 allows the oil with a relatively high temperature separated in the solid-liquid separation device 20 to be cooled down slightly.

[0040] Easy to operate: The first filter screen 42 has a downward indentation, which makes it easy to manually remove the residue when there is too much residue on the first filter screen 42; the filter frame 40 is designed to be easy to clean and maintain.

[0041] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solution of this utility model. These modifications and improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model, and will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application should be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
