Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, and in particular to a lotus root pulp residue filter. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of making and using lotus root paste, lotus roots are usually washed, peeled, and cut into pieces, then ground into paste using a grinder. This paste is widely used in food processing, the catering industry, and in the preparation of some traditional delicacies, such as lotus root powder and lotus root soup. However, there is a common problem in the process of making and using lotus root paste: the paste contains a certain amount of lotus root residue, which needs to be effectively filtered out to obtain a finer and clearer paste. Therefore, filtering the residue remaining in the paste is an important step. Traditional methods of filtering lotus root paste usually use simple filters, but these filters are prone to clogging after prolonged use. This not only reduces filtration efficiency but may also lead to incomplete filtration, affecting the quality of the paste. The main reason for the filter clogging is the accumulation of lotus root residue on the surface of the filter, which gradually reduces the filtration effect. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a lotus root pulp residue filter in order to solve the problem of filter screens becoming clogged after prolonged use.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A lotus root pulp residue filter includes a mounting frame, on which a plurality of material cylinders are fixedly connected. A drain tank is installed at the bottom of each material cylinder. A conveying assembly is assembled between the plurality of material cylinders. A separation assembly capable of separating the residue and pulp water in the lotus root pulp is assembled on the drain tank.

[0006] The separation assembly includes a sleeve fixedly installed on the discharge tank. An inlet pipe and an outlet pipe are respectively connected to both sides of the sleeve. A sieve cylinder is placed inside the sleeve. A filter screen is installed inside the sieve cylinder. The sieve cylinder is provided with an installation component that allows the filter screen to be easily installed and removed. The sleeve is also equipped with a sealing component that can fix the sieve cylinder.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0008] The mounting components include a locking block fixedly mounted at the bottom of the filter screen, several fixing blocks fixedly connected to the inner wall of the screening cylinder, two rotating plates rotatably connected inside the fixing blocks, a first spring fixedly connected between the rotating plates and the fixing blocks, and an extension block mounted on the screening cylinder by a second spring.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] The filter screen has two parts, the top of the fixing block has a through groove that matches the card block, and the rotating plate is semi-circular.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The inner wall of the screening cylinder is provided with several grooves, the extension block and the second spring are located in the grooves, and the arc-shaped surface of the second spring is in contact with the top of one of the filter screens.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The sleeve is inclined, the discharge pipe is located inside the drain tank, and one end of the inlet pipe is connected to the material cylinder.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] The sealing component includes a sealing plate threaded onto the bottom of the sleeve, and a rubber ring is placed between the sealing plate and the screening cylinder.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:

A liquid storage tank and a water pump are respectively provided on both sides of the mounting frame. The inlet and outlet ends of the water pump are respectively connected to conveying pipes, and the two ends of the two conveying pipes are respectively connected to the material cylinders and the liquid storage tank.

[0019] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] By incorporating an inclined sleeve and two filter screens, the lotus root slurry effectively filters out residues upon entering the sleeve. The inclined design of the filter screens causes residues to accumulate towards the lower end under the scouring effect of the slurry, preventing clogging and thus improving filtration efficiency. The inclined design of the filter screens and the automatic residue accumulation function effectively prevent clogging of the filter screen surface due to residue buildup, ensuring the continuity and stability of the filtration process. The installation components allow for easy disassembly and cleaning of the filter screens. Simple operations, such as pulling the filter screen handle, allow for easy removal for cleaning or replacement, reducing maintenance time and labor costs and improving equipment availability and production efficiency. The design of sealing components, such as the combination of sealing plates and rubber rings, ensures a tight seal between the sleeve and the screening cylinder, preventing leakage of the lotus root slurry during filtration. The conveying assembly enables automated conveying of the lotus root slurry. A water pump and connecting pipes transport the slurry from the storage tank to each material cylinder before it enters the separation assembly for filtration, increasing the automation level of the entire filtration process.

[0034] 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. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0035] like Figures 1-10 As shown, the present invention provides a lotus root pulp residue filter, including a mounting frame 10, a plurality of material cylinders 11 fixedly connected to the mounting frame 10, a drain tank 12 installed at the bottom of the material cylinders 11, and a conveying assembly 13 assembled between the plurality of material cylinders 11. The lotus root pulp can be conveyed into the material cylinders 11 through the conveying assembly 13. After passing through the drain tank 12 at the bottom of the material cylinders 11 and the separation assembly 20, the lotus root pulp with the residue filtered out can be discharged and collected. The drain tank 12 is equipped with a separation assembly 20 that can separate the residue and pulp water in the lotus root pulp.

[0036] The separation component 20 includes a sleeve 21 fixedly installed on the drain tank 12. The sleeve 21 has an inlet pipe 22 and an outlet pipe 23 connected to its two sides respectively. The lotus root slurry can enter the sleeve 21 through the inlet pipe 22, and the filtered lotus root slurry will enter the drain tank 12 from the sleeve 21 through the outlet pipe 23. Then, the valve at the bottom of the drain tank 12 is opened to allow the lotus root slurry to be discharged and collected. A screening cylinder 24 is placed inside the sleeve 21. A filter screen 25 is installed inside the screening cylinder 24 to filter the residue in the lotus root slurry. The screening cylinder 24 is equipped with a mounting component 26 that allows the filter screen 25 to be easily disassembled and installed to clean the filter screen 25 and prevent the filter screen 25 from clogging. The sleeve 21 is also equipped with a sealing component 27 that can fix the screening cylinder 24.

[0037] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the conveying assembly 13 includes a connecting pipe 131 that connects and is installed between several material cylinders 11. A storage tank 132 and a water pump are respectively installed on both sides of the mounting frame 10. The inlet and outlet ends of the water pump are respectively connected to conveying pipes 133. The two ends of the two conveying pipes 133 are respectively connected to the material cylinders 11 and the storage tank 132. In use, by starting the water pump, the two conveying pipes 133 can convey the lotus root slurry inside the storage tank 132 into the material cylinders 11. Then, through the connecting pipe 131, the lotus root slurry can enter the remaining material cylinders 11. The lotus root slurry inside the material cylinders 11 will enter the separation assembly 20. The separation assembly 20 filters the residue in the lotus root slurry, so that the filtered lotus root slurry can enter the discharge tank 12. Then, the valve at the bottom of the discharge tank 12 is opened to discharge and collect the lotus root slurry.

[0038] like Figures 6-10 As shown, the mounting component 26 includes several locking blocks 261 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the filter screen 25. Several fixing blocks 262 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the screening cylinder 24. Two rotating plates 263 are rotatably connected inside the fixing blocks 262. The locking blocks 261 can be clamped and fixed by the two rotating plates 263. A first spring 264 is fixedly connected between the rotating plates 263 and the fixing blocks 262. The reaction force of the first spring 264 makes the rotating plates 263 return to their original position. The extension block 265 is mounted on the screening cylinder 24 by a second spring 266.

[0039] In more detail, there are two filters 25, and one of the filters 25 has a handle at the top. The top of the fixing block 262 has a through groove that matches the card block 261. The rotating plate 263 is semi-circular.

[0040] In more detail, the inner wall of the screening cylinder 24 is provided with several grooves, and the extension block 265 and the second spring 266 are located in the grooves. The extension block 265 can be reset by the reaction force of the second spring 266, and the arc-shaped surface of the second spring 266 contacts the top of one of the filter screens 25. In the initial state, the two filter screens 25 can be fixed by the extension block 265 and the rotating plate 263.

[0041] In more detail, the sleeve 21 is inclined, the discharge pipe 23 is located inside the drain tank 12, and the screening cylinder 24 is connected to the discharge pipe 23. One end of the feed pipe 22 is connected to the material cylinder 11.

[0042] When the lotus root slurry enters the sleeve 21 through the feed pipe 22, it is filtered by two filter screens 25. Since the filter screens 25 are inclined, the residue remaining on the surface of the filter screens 25 will gradually accumulate towards the lowest end of the filter screens 25 through the washing of the lotus root slurry, thereby preventing the surface of the filter screens 25 from being blocked by residue. After the lotus root slurry is filtered by the two filter screens 25, the filtered lotus root slurry can be discharged from the sleeve 21 into the drainage tank 12 through the discharge pipe 23. Then, the valve at the bottom of the drainage tank 12 is opened to allow the lotus root slurry to be discharged and collected.

[0043] like Figures 4-5As shown, the sealing component 27 includes a sealing plate 271 threadedly installed at the bottom of the sleeve 21. A rubber ring 272 is placed between the sealing plate 271 and the screening cylinder 24. When the filter screen 25 needs to be removed for cleaning, the sealing plate 271 at the bottom of the sleeve 21 is rotated to separate the sealing plate 271 from the sleeve 21. Then, the screening cylinder 24 can be pulled out as a whole. After the screening cylinder 24 is pulled out, the filter screen 25 is pulled upward by pulling the handle on the top of the filter screen 25, causing the filter screen 25 to rise. As the filter screen 25 rises, the edge of the filter screen 25 will press against the arc-shaped surface of the extension block 265, causing the extension block 265 to retract into the groove under pressure. At the same time as the filter screen 25 rises, the locking block 261 at the bottom will also press against the two rotating plates 263, causing the two rotating plates 263 to rotate in opposite directions, thereby releasing the fixing of the locking block 261. After the two filters 25 are removed, the rotating plates 263 and the extension block 265 are reset by the reaction force of the first spring 264 and the second spring 266 respectively.

[0044] When installing the cleaned filter screen 25, insert the filter screen 25 back into the screening cylinder 24 using the handle. This causes the extension block 265 to retract into the groove under pressure, while the locking block 261 is inserted into the fixing block 262 through the through slot. This causes the two rotating plates 263 to expand outwards. The reaction force of the first spring 264 then clamps and fixes the locking block 261, which, together with the extended extension block 265, fixes the filter screen 25. Next, place the rubber ring 272 at the bottom of the screening cylinder 24 and screw on the sealing plate 271. The rotation of the sealing plate 271 compresses the rubber ring 272, causing the rubber ring 272 to fill the gap between the screening cylinder 24 and the sealing plate 271 through its own material deformation. This increases the sealing between the sealing plate 271 and the screening cylinder 24, preventing the lotus root slurry from leaking.

[0045] 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.
