[0002] Citrus fruits are rich in nutrients such as vitamin C and flavonoids. Their juice is sweet and sour and is loved by consumers. Whether it is for daily family consumption or for the catering industry and juice processing companies, there is a great demand for citrus juice. In order to meet people's needs for convenient and quick access to fresh citrus juice, the research and development of juicers is constantly advancing.
[0003] Currently, some citrus juicers do not adequately pre-treat citrus fruits, making it difficult to fully crush the fruit and resulting in a low juice yield. Furthermore, some juicers are inconvenient to clean and maintain, as the internal structure is difficult to thoroughly clean, easily leaving pulp and juice residue, which can breed bacteria and affect subsequent use and the hygienic quality of the juice. In response to this technical problem, this application proposes a juicer suitable for citrus fruits. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a juicer suitable for citrus fruits. The juicer uses blades in the feed hopper to initially cut citrus fruits, and the auger can more fully squeeze the fruit, making it easier to extract the juice, thereby improving juicing efficiency and yield. Furthermore, the rinsing pipe and rinsing head allow for quick and thorough rinsing of key internal parts of the juicer, significantly saving cleaning time and labor costs and improving cleaning efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A juicer suitable for citrus fruits includes a juicing box, a filter cylinder fixedly connected inside the juicing box, a juicing assembly inside the filter cylinder, a feed hopper fixedly connected to the upper end of the juicing box, a cutting assembly inside the feed hopper, a juice collection box fixedly connected to the lower left side of the juicing box, a juice outlet pipe fixedly connected to the lower part of the juice collection box, a pulp collection box fixedly connected to the lower right side of the juicing box, a pulp collection container slidably connected inside the pulp collection box, and a rinsing assembly on the upper side of the inside of the juicing box.
[0007] Furthermore, the juicing assembly includes a motor installed at the left end of the juicing box, a rotating shaft fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor, a spiral auger fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the outer wall of the spiral auger rotatably connected to the inside of the filter cylinder.
[0008] Furthermore, a drive wheel is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer wall of the rotating shaft, a belt is fitted on the outer wall of the drive wheel, and a driven wheel is fitted on the upper side of the inner side of the belt.
[0009] Furthermore, the cutting assembly includes a second rotating shaft rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feed hopper, a plurality of blades fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second rotating shaft, and the left end of the second rotating shaft fixedly connected to the middle of the driven wheel.
[0010] Furthermore, the rinsing assembly includes multiple rinsing pipes installed on the upper side of the inner wall of the juicing tank, and multiple rinsing heads are installed at the lower end of the rinsing pipes.
[0011] Furthermore, a main water inlet pipe is installed on the lower left side of the juicing box, and multiple branch water inlet pipes are fixedly connected to the upper part of the main water inlet pipe. The upper ends of the branch water inlet pipes are fixedly connected to the left end of the rinsing pipe.

[0022] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Reference Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a juicer suitable for citrus fruits, comprising a juicing chamber 1, a filter cylinder 7 fixedly connected inside the juicing chamber 1, a juicing assembly inside the filter cylinder 7, and a motor 9 mounted on the left end of the juicing chamber 1. A rotating shaft 10 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor 9. A spiral auger 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 10, and the outer wall of the spiral auger 11 is rotatably connected to the inside of the filter cylinder 7. A drive wheel 12 is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer wall of the rotating shaft 10. A belt 13 is sleeved on the outer wall of the drive wheel 12, and a driven wheel 14 is sleeved on the upper side of the inner side of the belt 13. Juicing... The upper end of the juicing box 1 is fixedly connected to the feed hopper 2. The feed hopper 2 is equipped with a cutting assembly. The cutting assembly includes a rotating shaft 15 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feed hopper 2. Multiple sets of blades 16 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 15. The left end of the rotating shaft 15 is fixedly connected to the middle of the driven wheel 14. The lower left end of the juicing box 1 is fixedly connected to the juice collection box 3. The lower part of the juice collection box 3 is fixedly connected to the juice outlet pipe 4. The lower right end of the juicing box 1 is fixedly connected to the residue collection box 5. The residue collection box 6 is slidably connected inside the residue collection box 5. The lower right end of the filter cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the residue outlet 8. The lower end of the residue outlet 8 is located on the upper side of the residue collection box 6.
[0024] Specifically, after the motor 9 starts, its drive end drives the rotating shaft 10, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. Since the driving wheel 12 is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer wall of the rotating shaft 10, the driving wheel 12 will rotate synchronously with the rotating shaft 10. The driving wheel 12 is connected to the driven wheel 14 through the belt 13, which in turn drives the driven wheel 14 to rotate. This method of transmission through the belt 13 realizes the transmission of power from the motor 9 to the cutting component inside the feed hopper 2. The rotation of the driven wheel 14 drives the rotating shaft 15, which is fixedly connected to its middle, to rotate. Since multiple sets of blades 16 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 15, the blades 16 will rotate together with the rotating shaft 15. When citrus fruits are put into the feed hopper 2, the rotating blades 16 will cut the fruits and initially break them into smaller pieces. The cut fruits enter the filter cylinder 7. Due to the rotation of the rotating shaft 10, the spiral auger 11 fixed to its outer wall also rotates inside the filter cylinder 7. The rotation of the spiral auger 11 will push the fruits. The auger moves within the filter cylinder 7, simultaneously applying pressure to the fruit. During this pressure, the juice is squeezed out and flows through the holes of the filter cylinder 7 into the juicing tank 1. Then, under gravity, it flows into the juice collection tank 3 and is finally discharged through the juice outlet 4. The remaining pulp continues to move towards the right end of the filter cylinder 7 as pushed by the auger 11, and finally falls into the pulp collection box 6 from the pulp outlet 8. The blades 16 in the feed hopper 2 perform preliminary cutting of the citrus fruit, breaking it into smaller pieces and increasing the surface area of the fruit. This allows the auger 11 to squeeze the fruit more thoroughly during the subsequent juicing process, making it easier to extract the juice. This improves juicing efficiency and yield. Furthermore, the filter cylinder 7 effectively separates the juice and pulp. The juice can flow out through the holes of the filter cylinder 7, while the pulp remains inside the filter cylinder 7 and is discharged through the pulp outlet 8. This ensures that the collected juice is purer and reduces the impact of pulp on the taste and quality of the juice.
[0025] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The juicer box 1 has a rinsing assembly on its upper interior side. The rinsing assembly includes multiple rinsing pipes 19 installed on the upper inner wall of the juicer box 1. Multiple rinsing heads 20 are installed at the lower end of the rinsing pipes 19. A water inlet main pipe 17 is installed on the lower left side of the juicer box 1. A water inlet valve 21 is installed on the front interior side of the water inlet main pipe 17. Multiple water inlet branch pipes 18 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the water inlet main pipe 17. The upper end of the water inlet branch pipes 18 is fixedly connected to the left end of the rinsing pipes 19.
[0026] Specifically, when the juicer needs to be cleaned, the water inlet valve 21 is opened, and water from the external water source flows into the main water inlet pipe 17 under pressure. The water in the main water inlet pipe 17 is then diverted through multiple branch water inlet pipes 18 connected to it and enters the flushing pipe 19 installed on the upper side of the inner wall of the juicing tank 1. The water flows in the flushing pipe 19 and is finally sprayed out from multiple flushing heads 20 installed at its lower end. The water jets clean the inside of the juicing tank 1, especially the juicing components such as the filter cylinder 7 and the spiral auger 11, as well as the inside of the feed hopper 2, thereby removing residual pulp, juice, and other impurities. After cleaning, the water inlet valve 21 is closed to stop the water supply. Through the flushing pipe 19 and the flushing heads 20, the key parts inside the juicer can be quickly and thoroughly cleaned, which greatly saves cleaning time and labor costs, improves cleaning efficiency, and reduces the corrosion and wear of components by residual substances. This helps to extend the service life of the juicer's components and reduce the risk of equipment damage.
[0027] Working principle: First, wash the fruit to be juiced to remove surface impurities. Then, start motor 9 and feed citrus fruits into hopper 2. Motor 9 drives shaft 10 to rotate. Shaft 10 drives driven wheel 14 via drive wheel 12 and belt 13, which in turn rotates shaft 15 and the blades 16 fixed thereon, cutting the fruit entering hopper 2 and initially crushing it. The cut fruit enters filter cylinder 7. As shaft 10 continues to rotate, auger 11 rotates inside filter cylinder 7, pushing and squeezing the fruit. Juice flows out from the holes of filter cylinder 7 and into juice collection tank 3 under gravity, then is collected through juice outlet pipe 4. The fruit pulp remains in the filter cylinder 7 and is eventually discharged from the pulp outlet 8 into the pulp collection box 6. After juicing, turn off the motor 9 and open the water inlet valve 21. Water flows in from the main water inlet pipe 17, enters the rinsing pipe 19 through the water inlet branch pipe 18, and is then sprayed out from the rinsing head 20 to rinse the inside of the juicing box 1, including the filter cylinder 7, the spiral auger 11, and other parts. During rinsing, the juicer can be shaken appropriately to ensure that all corners are rinsed. The cleaning wastewater can be discharged from the pulp outlet 8 along with the fruit pulp or treated separately. After rinsing, close the water inlet valve 21, remove the pulp collection box 6 from the pulp collection box 5, clean the fruit pulp inside, wash the pulp collection box 6, and reinstall it into the pulp collection box 5.
[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
