Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of food production technology, and in particular relates to a filtration mechanism for bone broth production. Background Technology
[0002] Bone broth is a soup made by simmering bones to extract nutrients. It is widely used in Chinese and Western cuisine, especially in hot pot, stews, and soups. In the production of bone broth, bones and water are poured into a heating tank and simmered. Currently, in order to improve the production efficiency of bone broth, a motor is used to drive the stirring rod inside the heating tank to rotate during the simmering process to make the heating more even.
[0003] A search revealed that patent announcement number CN221241639U, published on July 2, 2024, discloses a concentrated bone broth production and cooking equipment, including a housing and a drive mechanism. The housing has a horizontal plate on its upper side, a protective cover at the middle of the upper part of the horizontal plate, an output rod slidably connected to a sliding hole at the lower end of the horizontal plate, and stirring blades evenly arranged on the lower side of the outer arc surface of the output rod. An electric heating wire is installed in a cavity inside the housing, a filter plate is installed on the lower side of the housing, and a discharge pipe is installed in a discharge port at the lower end of the housing, with a discharge valve connected in series in the middle of the discharge pipe. The drive mechanism is located inside the protective cover. This concentrated bone broth production and cooking equipment can drive a lifting plate to perform vertical reciprocating motion during the rotation of the stirring blades, preventing some bone broth material from settling to the bottom. It performs multi-directional stirring without increasing the space occupied by the stirring components, further improving the efficiency of concentrated bone broth production.
[0004] Existing technologies use a drive mechanism to make the lifting plate move up and down repeatedly to improve the efficiency of simmering. However, in actual use, the drive mechanism is relatively complex, has high operating costs, and is inconvenient to maintain. Furthermore, existing technologies use a filter plate fixed inside the box to filter the bone broth, which not only has poor filtration effect but also makes it difficult to clean the filter plate. Therefore, we provide a filtration mechanism for bone broth production to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a filtration mechanism for bone broth production. It achieves the reciprocating up-and-down movement of the lifting plate through the cooperation of a spiral rib, a spring, and a round rod, and further filters the bone broth through a gauze layer. At the same time, the filtration position is located outside the heating box. This solves the problems of the existing technology's drive mechanism being relatively complex in structure, high in operating cost, and inconvenient in maintenance. Furthermore, the existing technology filters bone broth through a filter plate fixed inside the box, which not only has poor filtration effect but also makes it inconvenient to clean the filter plate.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model relates to a filtration mechanism for bone broth production, comprising a broth-cooking assembly, which includes a heating chamber. A fixed cover is fixed to the upper wall of the heating chamber, and a motor is fixed to the upper wall of the fixed cover. A guide sleeve is fixed to the power output shaft of the motor. A guide rod is fitted inside the guide sleeve with a clearance fit. A spring is provided above the guide rod corresponding to the inside of the guide sleeve. Multiple lifting plates are fixed to the lower side of the outer peripheral wall of the guide rod. A round rod is fixed to the upper side of the guide rod. The two ends of the round rod are fixed with spiral ribs arranged in a circumferential array corresponding to the inner peripheral wall of the heating chamber. A filtration assembly is provided below the heating chamber. The filtration assembly includes a mounting frame. Rotating rods are fixed to the front and rear side walls of the mounting frame. Side plates fixed to the heating chamber are provided outside the rotating rods. A gauze layer is provided inside the mounting frame, and a fine mesh screen is provided above the gauze layer.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a rotating cover is rotatably connected to the right side of the fixed cover via a hinge, and a handle is fixedly provided on the upper wall of the rotating cover.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a side door is rotatably connected to the bottom of the right outer peripheral wall of the heating box via a hinge, and a bolt threadedly connected to the heating box is provided on the side of the side plate away from the hinge. A through groove is provided at the location of the side door corresponding to the right peripheral wall of the heating box. A discharge valve is fixedly provided on the lower wall of the heating box, and support legs are fixedly provided in a circumferential array along the edge of the lower wall of the heating box.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a stirring rod fixed to the guide rod is provided above the lifting plate, and the height of the spiral ridge gradually increases in the clockwise direction.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a rectangular groove is axially formed on the peripheral wall of the guide sleeve, and a protrusion is fixedly provided inside the rectangular groove corresponding to the upper end of the outer peripheral wall of the guide rod.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the side plate through a bearing, and a rotating plate is fixedly provided at the front end of the rotating rod located on the front side, and through holes are symmetrically provided on the corresponding side plates on both sides of the rotating plate.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a rod is inserted into the perforation, a connecting plate is fixed to the rotating plate on the outside of the rod, an elastic element is provided on the outside of the rod, a baffle fixed to the rod is provided at the rear end of the elastic element, the front end of the elastic element abuts against the connecting plate, and a pinch block is fixed at the front end of the rod.
[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. This utility model, by setting a spring, a helical ridge, and a round rod, uses a motor to drive the guide sleeve to rotate, thereby causing the guide rod to rotate. When the round rod rotates to contact the helical ridge, it moves along the upper surface of the helical ridge. Since the height of the helical ridge gradually increases in a clockwise direction, the round rod moves upward as it moves along the upper surface of the helical ridge, causing the lifting plate to move upward. After the round rod disengages from the helical ridge, the spring pushes the guide rod downward, thereby causing the lifting plate to move downward. This arrangement achieves the effect of reciprocating up and down movement of the lifting plate. The structure is simpler, the operating cost is relatively low, and the maintenance is more convenient. It solves the problems of complex structure, high operating cost, and inconvenient maintenance of existing drive mechanisms.
[0016] 2. This utility model places the filter assembly outside the heating box. When cleaning the filter assembly, the insertion rod is disengaged from the perforation, and the rotation of the insertion rod drives the mounting frame to rotate. Under the action of gravity, the fine mesh screen and gauze layer are separated from the mounting frame, making it easy to remove the fine mesh screen and gauze layer for cleaning the filtered material. The fine mesh screen in the filter assembly is used to filter bone residue in the bone broth, and the gauze layer in the filter assembly further filters the bone broth, improving the filtration effect. This solves the problem of existing technology that uses a filter plate fixed inside the box to filter bone broth, which not only has poor filtration effect but also makes it inconvenient to clean the filter plate.
[0017] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0027] 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.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a filtration mechanism for bone broth production, including a soup-cooking assembly 1. The soup-cooking assembly 1 includes a heating box 104, which is equipped with a heating wire (not shown) for heating and stewing bones and water. A fixing cover 101 is fixedly provided on the upper wall of the heating box 104, providing a mounting platform for a motor 102. The motor 102 is fixedly provided on the upper wall of the fixing cover 101 for driving a guide sleeve 106 to rotate. The upper end of the guide sleeve 106 is closed, and the motor 102 drives the guide sleeve 106 to rotate. The wire is electrically connected to an external power source. The motor 102 is existing technology, and its model is not limited here. A guide sleeve 106 is fixed on the power output shaft of the motor 102. A guide rod 107 is fitted inside the guide sleeve 106 with a clearance fit. The guide rod 107 can move up and down along the guide sleeve 106. A spring 108 is provided above the guide rod 107 corresponding to the inside of the guide sleeve 106 to apply a downward supporting force to the guide rod 107. Multiple lifting plates 107 are fixed on the lower side of the outer peripheral wall of the guide rod 107. b. When the lifting plate 107b moves up and down, it drives the bone broth ingredients inside the heating box 104 to move, thereby improving the stewing efficiency. A round rod 107a is fixedly provided on the upper side of the guide rod 107. When the height of the round rod 107a is at the lower limit, the height of the round rod 107a is above the lowest end of the upper wall of the spiral ridge 104c, so that the round rod 107a can move smoothly along the upper wall of the spiral ridge 104c when it rotates. The two ends of the round rod 107a are fixedly provided with spiral ridges 104c in a circular array corresponding to the inner peripheral wall of the heating box 104. Two ridges 104c are provided. With the above configuration, when the motor 102 is working, the round rod 107a rotates. At this time, the round rod 107a will move clockwise along the upper wall of the spiral ridge 104c. When the round rod 107a rotates along the upper wall of the spiral ridge 104c, the spring 108 is gradually compressed and stores energy. When the spiral ridge 104c moves to the point where it is no longer in contact with the spiral ridge 104c, the guide rod 107 and the lifting plate 107b descend under the action of the spring 108. This reciprocating motion can realize the reciprocating lifting of the lifting plate 107b.
[0030] Specifically, a rotating cover 103 is rotatably connected to the right side of the fixed cover 101 via a hinge. The rotating cover 103 and the fixed cover 101 form a complete circular plate. At the same time, in order to balance the pressure inside the heating box 104, a vent hole is also provided on the fixed cover 101. A handle 103a is fixed on the upper wall of the rotating cover 103. By operating the handle 103a to rotate, the upper part of the heating box 104 is exposed, and the bone broth ingredients can be added into the heating box 104.
[0031] A side door 105 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the right outer peripheral wall of the heating box 104 via a hinge. A sealing gasket can be fixed between the side door 105 and the side wall of the heating box 104 to prevent leakage. The side plate 201 is provided with a bolt threaded to the heating box 104 on the side away from the hinge. A through groove is opened at the location of the side door 105 corresponding to the right peripheral wall of the heating box 104. When removing the bones from the heating box 104, the operation can be carried out by unscrewing the bolt and opening the side plate 201. A discharge valve 104a is fixed on the lower wall of the heating box 104 for discharging the bone broth inside the heating box 104. Support legs 104b are fixed in a circular array along the edge of the lower wall of the heating box 104.
[0032] Above the lifting plate 107b is a stirring rod 107c fixed to the guide rod 107, which is used to stir the inside of the heating box 104. The height of the spiral ridge 104c gradually increases in the clockwise direction, so that with the cooperation of the spring 108, the movement of the round rod 107a can drive the lifting plate 107b to move up and down back and forth.
[0033] A rectangular groove 106a is axially provided on the peripheral wall of the guide sleeve 106. A protrusion 107d is fixed inside the rectangular groove 106a corresponding to the upper end of the outer peripheral wall of the guide rod 107. With the above arrangement, the protrusion 107d moves inside the rectangular groove 106a, which can prevent the guide rod 107 from separating from the guide sleeve 106.
[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the circular rod 107a rotates clockwise;
[0035] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: During use, the discharge valve 104a and side door 105 are closed. Then, the handle 103a is operated to open the rotating cover 103, and bones and water are poured into the heating chamber 104. Then, the handle 103a is operated to close the rotating cover 103. At this time, the heating wire in the heating chamber 104 is activated, and the motor 102 is activated. When the heating wire is activated, heat is transferred to the bones and water inside the heating chamber 104. Simultaneously, the motor 102 drives the guide sleeve 106 to rotate, at the protrusion 107d... The action causes the guide rod 107 to rotate, thereby driving the stirring rod 107c, the lifting plate 107b, and the round rod 107a to rotate. In this state, the round rod 107a contacts the upper wall of the spiral ridge 104c when it rotates. As the round rod 107a rotates, it moves upward, causing the guide rod 107 to move upward. At this time, the spring 108 is compressed. When the round rod 107a disengages from the spiral ridge 104c, the spring 108 pushes the guide rod 107 to move downward quickly, causing the lifting plate 107b to move downward. This process is repeated to improve the stewing efficiency.
[0036] Example 2
[0037] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, but differs from the first embodiment in that: a filter assembly 2 is provided below the heating box 104. The filter assembly 2 includes a mounting frame 202. The upper side of the mounting frame 202 is open, providing a mounting platform for the gauze layer 206 and the fine mesh sieve 203. Rotating rods 202a are fixed on both the front and rear side walls of the mounting frame 202. Side plates 201 fixed to the heating box 104 are provided outside the rotating rods 202a. The gauze layer 206 is provided inside the mounting frame 202. A fine mesh sieve 203 is provided above the gauze layer 206. The fine mesh sieve 203 is used for coarse filtration of bone broth, while the gauze layer 206 is used for fine filtration of bone broth.
[0038] Specifically, the rotating rod 202a is rotatably connected to the side plate 201 via a bearing. The front end of the rotating rod 202a located on the front side is fixed with a rotating plate 204. The side plates 201 on both sides of the rotating plate 204 are symmetrically provided with through holes 201a. When the insert rod 205 is inserted into the through hole 201a on the right side, the filter assembly 2 is in the filtering state. When the insert rod 205 is inserted into the through hole 201a on the left side, the gauze layer 206 and the fine mesh screen 203 can be removed for cleaning in this state.
[0039] An insert rod 205 is inserted into the perforation 201a. A connecting plate 204a fixed to the rotating plate 204 is provided on the outside of the insert rod 205. An elastic element 207 is provided on the outside of the insert rod 205 to provide support for the baffle 205a and prevent the insert rod 205 from detaching from the perforation 201a. A baffle 205a fixed to the insert rod 205 is provided at the rear end of the elastic element 207. The front end of the elastic element 207 abuts against the connecting plate 204a. A pinch block 205b is fixed at the front end of the insert rod 205. With the above configuration, by operating the pinch block 205b to move forward, the insert rod 205 moves forward. Then, by rotating the insert rod 205 180 degrees, the mounting frame 202 can be flipped to remove the gauze layer 206 and the fine mesh screen 203.
[0040] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: During filtration, the collection container is located directly below the filter assembly 2. At this time, the discharge valve 104a is opened, and the bone broth inside the heating box 104 passes through the discharge valve 104a, and then passes through the fine mesh screen 203 and the gauze layer 206 in sequence. When passing through the fine mesh screen 203, the bone broth can be coarsely filtered, and when passing through the gauze layer 206, the bone broth is further filtered. Then the filtered bone broth enters the collection container.
[0041] When cleaning the fine mesh screen 203 and the gauze layer 206, the pinch block 205b is moved forward to disengage the insertion rod 205 from the perforation 201a on the right side. Rotating the pinch block 205b causes the mounting frame 202 to rotate, which allows the fine mesh screen 203 and the gauze layer 206 to be removed for cleaning.
