Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit juicing technology, and in particular to a juicing device for beverage production that can separate residue. Background Technology
[0002] In fruit beverage production, the raw fruit needs to be juiced. This process involves applying physical pressure to the fruit pulp to break down the cell structure, causing the juice to separate from the pulp. Currently, in the actual operation and industrial production of orange juice, the traditional method usually involves first cutting the orange in half along the equator with a knife to fully expose the pulp. Then, the orange is placed with the pulp side down in a special funnel. Finally, pressure is applied from the peel side by manual pressing and mechanical pressure plates, causing the pulp to break down under pressure and the juice to be squeezed out. However, currently, manual pressing is usually used, which is labor-intensive and requires manual separation of the dried residue, resulting in low production efficiency.
[0003] For example, a juicer for beverage production that can separate residues disclosed in Chinese patent literature (publication number: CN221355619U) has a mounting frame, a door panel, a limiting hole, a fixing rod, and a U-shaped rod. The limiting hole engages with the U-shaped rod, and the sliding rail and slider cooperate to allow the U-shaped rod to move the disc body through the slider inside the sliding rail while being pulled up, thus compressing the spring body and causing deformation. This makes it easier for the U-shaped rod to rise and fall without engaging with the limiting hole, allowing the operator to turn the door panel to open the mounting frame and clean the residue inside the mounting frame.
[0004] However, after each juicing session, the juicing process must be stopped, and the operator must manually open the door to clean the pulp residue inside the frame. This not only requires a large amount of manual labor but also seriously affects the juicing efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the need for repeated manual cleaning of residues when juicing oranges, which is not only labor-intensive but also reduces juicing efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A juice extraction device for beverage production capable of separating residue includes an operating table, and a movable juice extraction mechanism is arranged above the operating table.
[0008] The mobile juicing mechanism includes guide rails, with the lower ends of two guide rails symmetrically distributed and fixedly connected to the upper end of the operating table. Movable sleeves are slidably connected to the outside of the guide rails, and rectangular frames are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two movable sleeves. Symmetrically distributed clearance grooves are provided on both sides of the rectangular frames. A driven rod is rotatably connected to one inner wall of the rectangular frame via a bearing, and an arc-shaped funnel is fixedly connected to one end of the driven rod.
[0009] A flipping collection mechanism is installed above the operating table.
[0010] Preferably, an L-shaped support block is fixedly connected above the operating platform, a hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed at the upper end of the L-shaped support block, and one end of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder passes through the L-shaped support block and is fixedly connected to an arc-shaped pressure block.
[0011] Preferably, the upper end of the operating table is fixedly connected to a juice collection hopper, the lower end of the juice collection hopper extends through and to the bottom of the operating table, and the upper end of the juice collection hopper is provided with symmetrically distributed movable slots.
[0012] Preferably, the inner wall of the movable slot is movably engaged with a locking block, and cylindrical filter screens are fixedly connected to the opposing surfaces of the two locking blocks.
[0013] Preferably, the flipping collection mechanism includes a fixing block, the lower end of which is fixedly connected to the upper end of the operating table, a guide tube is fixedly sleeved on the inner wall of the fixing block, and an arc-shaped guide groove is formed on the outside of the guide tube.
[0014] Preferably, a drive rod is slidably sleeved on the inner wall of the guide tube, one end of the drive rod passes through the rectangular frame and is fixedly connected to the outside of the arc-shaped funnel, and a guide rod is fixedly connected to the outside of the drive rod.
[0015] Preferably, the outer side of the guide rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped guide groove, and symmetrically distributed servo electric cylinders are fixedly installed on one side of the fixed block. One end of each piston rod of the two servo electric cylinders is fixedly connected to a moving plate. The inner wall of the moving plate is rotatably connected to the other end of the drive rod through a bearing. The upper end of the operating table is fixedly connected to a residue collection pipe, and the lower end of the residue collection pipe extends through and to the bottom of the operating table.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] In this invention, the combined use of a moving juicing mechanism and a flipping collection mechanism enables automated juicing of oranges. The combination of an arc-shaped funnel and a cylindrical filter achieves double filtration of the juice, effectively filtering out any remaining pulp. The automated moving and flipping mechanism automatically feeds the shriveled pulp into the residue collection tube, thereby reducing manual labor and improving juicing efficiency.

[0028] Example
[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a juice extraction device for beverage production that can separate residues, including an operating table 1, with a moving juice extraction mechanism and a flipping collection mechanism respectively arranged above the operating table 1.
[0030] The upper end of the operating table 1 is symmetrically fixed with guide rails 2. The movable sleeve 21 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide rails 2, providing linear motion guidance for the rectangular frame 22. The linear constraint characteristics of the guide rails 2 ensure that the rectangular frame 22 drives the arc funnel 25 to move stably. With the help of the avoidance groove 23, it avoids interference from surrounding components, ensuring smooth operation of the mechanism and laying the foundation for continuous production.
[0031] The rectangular frame 22 is rotatably connected to the driven rod 24 via a bearing. One end of the driven rod 24 is fixed to the arc-shaped funnel 25. The curved surface structure of the arc-shaped funnel 25 is adapted to the shape of orange pulp. When the pulp is placed downwards, the curved surface can guide the juice to flow to the juice collection hopper 29. The rotational characteristics of the bearing provide structural support for the subsequent flipping of the arc-shaped funnel 25 to discharge residue.
[0032] An L-shaped support block 26 is fixed above the operating table 1, and a hydraulic cylinder 27 is installed on its upper end. The piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 27 passes through the support block and is connected to the arc-shaped pressure block 28. The hydraulic cylinder 27 provides stable and controllable pressure. The curved surface of the arc-shaped pressure block 28 fits against the inner wall of the arc-shaped funnel 25. When squeezing the orange pulp, the pressure is evenly distributed. Compared with manual pressing, the juice yield is increased by 20%-30%, while avoiding excessive crushing of the pulp, which would cause the juice to become cloudy.
[0033] The upper end of the operating table 1 is fixedly connected to the juice collection hopper 29, and its lower end extends through to the bottom of the operating table 1 to receive and guide the juice after juicing. The upper end is provided with a movable slot 210 to provide an installation position for the locking block 211 of the cylindrical filter screen 212, so as to realize the quick disassembly and assembly of the filter screen, which is convenient for batch cleaning or replacement, and solves the problem of time-consuming cleaning after the traditional filter screen is clogged.
[0034] The cylindrical filter screen 212 has fixed clips 211 on both sides, which engage with the movable slots 210. The filter screen is made of food-grade stainless steel with a pore size of 50-80 mesh, which can effectively intercept fruit pulp residue and achieve initial separation of juice and pulp. The snap-fit structure ensures that the filter screen and the juice collection hopper 29 fit together without gaps, preventing juice leakage, ensuring a clean production environment, and meeting the GB14881 food production hygiene standard.
[0035] The upper end of the operating table 1 is fixed with a fixing block 3, and a guide tube 31 is sleeved on its inner wall. The guide tube 31 has an arc-shaped guide groove 32. The guide tube 31 provides a sliding track for the drive rod 33. The curved trajectory of the arc-shaped guide groove 32 converts the linear motion of the drive rod 33 into the flipping action of the arc-shaped funnel 25.
[0036] The drive rod 33 is slidably sleeved inside the guide tube 31, with one end passing through the rectangular frame 22 and fixing the arc-shaped funnel 25. The guide rod 34 is fixed externally and is embedded in the arc-shaped guide groove 32 and slidably engaged. When the drive rod 33 is pushed by the servo electric cylinder 35, the guide rod 34 slides along the arc-shaped groove, forcing the arc-shaped funnel 25 to rotate around the driven rod 24, and using gravity to automatically pour out the residue without the need for manual opening and cleaning.
[0037] A servo electric cylinder 35 is installed on one side of the fixed block 3. Its piston rod is connected to the moving plate 36. The moving plate 36 is rotatably connected to the drive rod 33 through a bearing. The servo electric cylinder 35 provides precise and controllable thrust, which pushes the moving plate 36 to drive the drive rod 33 to slide, causing the arc-shaped funnel 25 to rotate 180° and pour the residue into the opening of the residue collection pipe 37. The residue collection pipe 37 passes through the bottom of the operating table 1 to realize the centralized collection of residue, which is convenient for subsequent unified processing and reduces the labor intensity of manual cleaning.
[0038] The working process of this utility model:
[0039] Step 1: Manually place the halved orange pulp face down into the arc-shaped funnel 25. The piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 27 extends, and the arc-shaped pressure block 28 presses down on the orange pulp. The juice is squeezed through the holes of the arc-shaped funnel 25 into the juice collection hopper 29. After being filtered by the cylindrical filter screen 212, the juice flows along the collection hopper into the liquid storage container below. The residue remains in the filter screen and funnel, and the cylindrical filter screen 212 intercepts the pulp residue, achieving further separation of juice and pulp, preventing the juice from clogging the subsequent pipeline. At the same time, the filter screen snap-fit structure facilitates subsequent cleaning.
[0040] Step two: After juicing is completed, the piston rod of the servo electric cylinder 35 extends, pushing the moving plate 36 to drive the drive rod 33 to slide along the guide tube 31. When the guide rod 34 slides along the arc-shaped guide groove 32, the arc-shaped funnel 25 is forced to rotate 180° around the driven rod 24 by utilizing the arc-shaped trajectory of the groove, pouring the residue into the opening above the residue collection pipe 37. The residue falls into the residue collection pipe 37 by gravity and is transported to the residue storage container below through the pipeline, realizing automatic residue discharge. After the residue is discharged, the servo electric cylinder 35 retracts, the drive rod 33 resets, and the arc-shaped funnel 25 returns to the horizontal state, ready for the next round of juicing.
[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
