Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of animal fat refining equipment, specifically an animal fat refining equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Animal fats are oils obtained from animals and can be divided into fats from terrestrial warm-blooded animals and poultry, such as beef tallow, mutton tallow, and lard, which are generally solid and whose main components are triglycerides of palmitic acid and stearic acid; and fats from marine mammals and fish, such as whale oil and fish oil. The extraction of animal fats is mainly done through hot oil refining. This method typically involves placing a certain amount of animal by-products into a refining tank, heating them at high temperatures for a period of time, and then separating the oil from the residue.

[0003] Existing animal fat refining equipment typically uses filters to separate oil residue. The residue after separation needs to be cleaned manually, which is time-consuming and inconvenient. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an animal fat refining equipment to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an animal fat refining device, which has the characteristics of reducing the time wasted in cleaning residue by using two separation baskets in combination, facilitating timely cleaning of oil residue, and being easy to use.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an animal fat refining device, comprising a base, an oil storage tank and slag storage tanks located on both sides of the upper end face of the base, four vertical plates symmetrically distributed in pairs fixedly connected to the upper end face of the base, a lead screw installed between the two rear vertical plates, and a limit rod installed between the two front vertical plates, two left and right distributed sliders threadedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw, two left and right distributed limit blocks corresponding to the two sliders respectively slidably connected to the outer wall of the limit rod, a mounting seat fixedly connected to the outer wall of each of the two limit blocks, a first motor installed inside each of the two mounting seats, the output ends of the two first motors passing through the mounting seats and fixedly connected to a separation basket, and the rear ends of the two separation baskets rotatably connected to the two sliders respectively via a rotating shaft;

[0006] An electric push rod is installed at the bottom of the separation basket, and the output end of the electric push rod passes through the separation basket and is fixedly connected to a push plate.

[0007] In order to press the oil residue through the extrusion plate and separate it more thoroughly, as a preferred embodiment of the animal oil refining device of this utility model, the rear end face of the base is fixedly connected to the bracket, the upper end face of the bracket is equipped with a second electric push rod, and the output end of the second electric push rod passes through the bracket and is fixedly connected to the extrusion plate.

[0008] In order to drive the lead screw to rotate, as is preferred in the animal fat refining device of this utility model, a second motor is installed at the left end of one of the vertical plates at the rear end, and the output end of the second motor passes through the vertical plate and is fixedly connected to the lead screw.

[0009] To facilitate the flow of oil from the separation baskets into the oil storage tank, in a preferred embodiment of this invention, the outer walls of both separation baskets are provided with multiple evenly distributed mesh holes.

[0010] To facilitate the pressing of the oil residue in the separation basket by the extrusion plate, in a preferred embodiment of the animal fat refining device of this utility model, the size of the extrusion plate is matched with the size of the inner wall of the separation basket.

[0011] In order to facilitate limiting the extreme positions of the movement of the two limiting blocks, as a preferred embodiment of the animal oil refining device of this utility model, auxiliary rods are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two vertical plates at the front end.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This invention allows for the separation of oil residue using a separation basket located directly above the oil storage tank. The separation basket on the right side is moved to a position directly above the right-side sludge storage box via a lead screw, two sliders, and two limit blocks. Then, a first motor drives the separation basket to rotate 180 degrees. Next, an electric actuator drives a connected push plate to move, pushing impurities from inside the separation basket into the corresponding sludge storage box. Simultaneously, the left-side separation basket, positioned directly above the oil storage tank, continues to separate oil residue. This design utilizes two separation baskets in tandem, reducing the time wasted on cleaning residue and facilitating timely oil residue removal, thus providing convenience for users.

[0018] Please see Figures 1 to 3 An animal fat refining device includes a base 1, an oil storage tank 2 and slag storage tanks 3 located on both sides of the oil storage tank 2, and four vertical plates 8 symmetrically distributed in pairs on the upper end of the base 1. A lead screw 9 is installed between the two rear vertical plates 8, and a limit rod 10 is installed between the two front vertical plates 8. The outer wall of the lead screw 9 is threadedly connected to two sliders 17 distributed on the left and right. The outer wall of the limit rod 10 is slidably connected to two limit blocks 11 distributed on the left and right and corresponding to the two sliders 17 respectively. The outer walls of the two limit blocks 11 are fixedly connected to mounting seats 12. The interior of the two mounting seats 12 is equipped with a first motor 13. The output ends of the two first motors 13 pass through the mounting seats 12 and are fixedly connected to a separation basket 7. The rear ends of the two separation baskets 7 are rotatably connected to the two sliders 17 respectively through a rotating shaft.

[0019] An electric push rod 15 is installed at the bottom of the separation basket 7. The output end of the electric push rod 15 passes through the separation basket 7 and is fixedly connected to a push plate 16.

[0020] In this embodiment: During use, the oil containing oil residue after high-temperature boiling is placed inside the separation basket 7 on the right side for filtration. During the filtration process, the oil falls from the mesh into the oil storage tank 2. After filtration for a period of time, the lead screw 9 is rotated. When the lead screw 9 rotates, it drives the two sliders 17 and the two limit blocks 11 connected to it to move to the right at the same time. After the separation basket 7 on the right end is moved directly above the slag storage tank 3 on the right end, the corresponding first motor 13 (worm gear self-locking motor) is started to drive the separation basket 7 to rotate 180 degrees. Then, the electric push rod 15 is started to drive the push plate 16 connected to it to move. The push plate 16 pushes the impurities inside the separation basket 7 into the corresponding slag storage tank 3. At the same time, the separation basket 7 on the left end is directly above the oil storage tank 2, and oil residue separation can continue.

[0021] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a bracket 4 is fixedly connected to the rear end face of the base 1, and a second electric push rod 5 is installed on the upper end face of the bracket 4. The output end of the second electric push rod 5 passes through the bracket 4 and is fixedly connected to a pressing plate 6.

[0022] In this embodiment, the second electric push rod 5 can easily drive the extrusion plate 6 to move up and down, and the extrusion plate 6 can press the oil residue to make its separation more thorough.

[0023] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a second motor 18 is installed at the left end of one of the rear vertical plates 8, and the output end of the second motor 18 passes through the vertical plate 8 and is fixedly connected to the lead screw 9.

[0024] In this embodiment, the second motor 18 can drive the lead screw 9 to rotate.

[0025] As a technical optimization of this utility model, multiple evenly distributed mesh holes are opened around the outer walls of the two separation baskets 7.

[0026] In this embodiment, the oil inside the basket 7 can be easily separated and flowed into the oil storage tank 2 through the mesh.

[0027] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the size of the extrusion plate 6 matches the size of the inner wall of the separation basket 7.

[0028] In this embodiment, by matching the size of the extrusion plate 6 with the size of the inner wall of the separation basket 7, the extrusion plate 6 can conveniently press the oil residue in the separation basket 7.

[0029] As a technical optimization of this utility model, auxiliary rods 14 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two front vertical plates 8.

[0030] In this embodiment: the auxiliary rod 14 at the left end can limit the movement limit position of the left end limiting block 11. At this time, the extrusion plate 6 is exactly above the separation basket 7 at the right end. The auxiliary rod 14 at the right end can limit the movement limit position of the right end limiting block 11. At this time, the extrusion plate 6 is exactly above the separation basket 7 at the left end.

[0031] Working principle: During use, the oil containing oil residue after high-temperature boiling is placed inside the separation basket 7 on the right side for filtration. During the filtration process, the oil falls from the mesh into the oil storage tank 2. After filtration for a period of time, the second motor 18 drives the lead screw 9 to rotate. When the lead screw 9 rotates, it drives the two sliders 17 and two limit blocks 11 connected to it to move to the right at the same time, so that the auxiliary rod 14 on the right end abuts against the limit block 11 on the right end. At this time, the extrusion plate 6 is located directly above the separation basket 7 on the left end. After the separation basket 7 on the right end is moved to the right end of the slag storage box 3, the corresponding first motor 13 is started to drive the separation basket 7 to rotate 180 degrees. Then, the electric push rod 15 is started to drive the push plate 16 connected to it to move. The push plate 16 pushes the impurities inside the separation basket 7 into the corresponding slag storage box 3. Then the separation basket 7 is reset.

[0032] After filtering for a period of time, the second motor 18 is started again to drive the lead screw 9 to rotate, so that the two sliders 17 and the two limit blocks 11 move to the left at the same time, so that the auxiliary rod 14 at the left end abuts against the limit block 11 at the left end. At this time, the extrusion plate 6 is located directly above the separation basket 7 at the right end, so that the two separation baskets 7 can be used alternately.

[0033] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
