Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of filtration devices, specifically a filtration device for dairy product production. Background Technology

[0002] Dairy products are various foods produced from cow's milk or other animal milk as the main raw material through processing, fermentation, refining, and other processes. Dairy filtration refers to the process of separating and purifying impurities, particles, bacteria, fats, proteins, etc. in dairy products by using different types of filtration equipment and methods during the production process. The purpose of filtration is to improve the quality of dairy products, extend their shelf life, and ensure product safety and stability. The filtration steps are different for different products, mainly divided into coarse filtration, fine filtration, reverse osmosis, membrane filtration, centrifugal filtration, and enzymatic filtration. Filtration requires the use of filtration devices.

[0003] In the livestock industry, some farmers use manual milking to sell the milk. However, manual milking can easily result in hair falling into the milk. After the milk is sold, manufacturers use filtration devices to perform preliminary coarse filtration.

[0004] Existing filtration devices use filter screens or gauze to intercept larger impurities, particles, or hair in dairy products during coarse filtration. However, the filter screens require manual support during use, which is quite inconvenient. Utility Model Content
