Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coconut oil processing technology, specifically a filtration device for coconut oil production. Background Technology

[0002] Coconut oil is the only oil in our daily diet composed of medium-chain fatty acids. Medium-chain fatty acid molecules are smaller than long-chain fatty acid molecules in other foods, making them easier for the human body to digest and absorb. The digestion of coconut oil does not require the use of the human pancreatic digestive enzyme system, and it puts very little stress on the body's enzyme and hormone systems.

[0003] Currently, coconut oil is usually filtered directly using a filter screen. However, if the coconut oil is filtered at a low temperature (usually below 25 degrees Celsius), it is prone to solidification, making it impossible to filter.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a filtration device for coconut oil production to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the aforementioned technical problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a filtration device for coconut oil production, comprising a filter cylinder installed at the opening of a filter box, a filter cover installed inside the filter cylinder, a filter screen for filtering coconut oil installed at the bottom of the filter cover, and a heating element installed below the filter cover, the heating element being located above the filter screen, the heating element being used to heat the coconut oil solidified inside the filter cover.

[0007] Furthermore, the filter cover includes a fixing ring and an inner conical cover fixed to the bottom of the fixing ring. An outer conical cover located outside the inner conical cover can also be detachably installed below the fixing ring, and a heating chamber for storing the heating element is formed between the inner conical cover and the outer conical cover.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer surface of the fixing ring and the outer surface of the outer conical cover are respectively provided with a plurality of first mounting holes at equal intervals along the circumferential direction, and when every two first mounting holes face each other, they are connected by locking bolts.

[0009] Furthermore: the bottom of the inner conical cover is fixed with an outwardly extending first annular protrusion, and the opening at the bottom of the outer conical cover is fixed with an inwardly extending second annular protrusion. The first annular protrusion and the second annular protrusion are respectively provided with a plurality of second mounting holes at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. When each pair of second mounting holes are aligned with each other, they are also connected by locking bolts.

[0010] Furthermore: an installation sleeve is fixed at the opening at the bottom of the inner conical cover, a support ring is fixed at the bottom of the circumferential wall of the installation sleeve, and a placement groove for use with the support ring is opened at the bottom of the filter screen.

[0011] Furthermore, several "L"-shaped mounting brackets are equidistantly provided at the bottom of the filter cylinder along the circumferential direction, and each mounting bracket has a through hole at its lower part.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This invention features a heating element installed inside the filter cover. This heating element heats the coconut oil inside the filter cover, ensuring that the inside of the filter cover remains at a high temperature. This prevents the coconut oil from solidifying due to low temperatures, which would affect the normal filtration of the coconut oil and thus improve the stability of the filtration device.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] A filtration device for coconut oil production includes a filter cylinder 1. During use, the filter cylinder 1 needs to be installed at the opening of a filter box (not shown in the figure). It should be noted that: several "L"-shaped mounting brackets 8 are fixed at equal intervals along the circumferential direction on the lower outer surface of the filter screen 1. Each mounting bracket 8 has a mounting hole 9. Fixing bolts pass through the mounting holes 9 and are threadedly connected to the opening of the filter box, thereby securing the filter cylinder 1 and preventing it from shaking during use, thus improving the stability of the filter cylinder 1.

[0023] The filter cylinder 1 is equipped with a filter cover 2, and a filter screen 3 is installed at the bottom of the filter cover 2. The filter screen 3 can filter the coconut oil inside the filter cover 2, thereby separating the particulate matter in the coconut oil.

[0024] In detail: The filter cover 2 includes a fixing ring 201 fixed inside the filter cylinder 1, and an inner conical cover 202 extending downward is fixed at the center of the bottom of the fixing ring 201. An outer conical cover 203 is also fixed at the bottom of the fixing ring 201, and the outer conical cover 203 is located outside the inner conical cover 202. It should be noted that a heating chamber 204 is left between the inner conical cover 202 and the outer conical cover 203, and a heating element 4 is installed inside the heating chamber 204. It should be noted that the heating element 4 is an electric heating wire. If the coconut oil in the inner conical cover 202 solidifies due to low temperature, the heating element 4 can heat the solidified coconut oil in the inner conical cover 202, so that the coconut oil can become liquid and be filtered.

[0025] It should be noted that: the outer conical cover 203 has several first mounting holes 205 equidistantly arranged along the circumferential direction on its outer surface, and the fixing ring 201 also has several first mounting holes 205 equidistantly arranged along the circumferential direction. When the first mounting holes 205 on the outer conical cover 203 and the first mounting holes 205 on the fixing ring 201 are aligned with each other, they are connected by locking bolts, thereby fastening the outer conical cover 203. If the heating element 4 in the heating chamber 204 is damaged, the outer conical cover 203 can be disassembled and the heating element 4 can be repaired.

[0026] It should be noted that: the opening at the bottom of the inner conical cover 202 is fixed with an outwardly extending first annular protrusion 206, and the opening at the bottom of the outer conical cover 203 is fixed with an inwardly extending second annular protrusion 207. The first annular protrusion 206 and the second annular protrusion 207 are respectively provided with a number of second mounting holes 208 at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. When every two second mounting holes 208 are aligned with each other, they are also tightened by locking bolts, which further serves to tighten the outer conical cover 203 and prevent the outer conical cover 203 from falling off or loosening during use.

[0027] It should be noted that: an installation sleeve 5 is fixed at the opening at the bottom of the inner conical cover 202, and a support ring 6 is fixed at the lower part of the inner side wall of the installation sleeve 5. A placement groove 7 is provided below the filter screen 3 to cooperate with the support ring 6. The filter screen 3 can be placed on the support ring 6 through the placement groove 7. After the coconut oil is filtered, the filter screen 3 can be directly removed, making it convenient to clean the filter screen 4, thus providing convenience for the staff.

[0028] Before filtering the coconut oil, the filter cylinder 1 is first installed at the opening of the filter box. Then, coconut oil is poured into the filter cylinder 1. The coconut oil can flow into the inner conical cover 202. The filter screen 3 below the inner conical cover 202 can filter the particulate matter in the coconut oil, thus achieving the function of filtering the coconut oil.

[0029] If coconut oil is filtered at a low temperature, it will usually solidify, leading to filtration failure. In this case, the heating element 4 can be turned on to heat the inner conical cover 202. The inner conical cover 202 can then heat the solidified coconut oil. As the temperature of the coconut oil continues to rise, the solidified coconut oil can become liquid and be filtered through the filter screen 3.
