[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] Example

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model proposes a fermentation juice filtration device that facilitates filter cleaning. It includes a top-opening box 1, a controller 9, and a solenoid valve 10. The controller 9 is fixedly installed on the front wall of the top-opening box 1 for easy operation. A liquid outlet is provided on the front wall of the top-opening box 1, and the solenoid valve 10 is inserted into the outlet to facilitate the discharge of filtered fermentation juice from the top-opening box 1. A liquid level sensor 7 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top-opening box 1 to monitor the liquid level of the fermentation juice, which is beneficial for timely discharge of filtered fermentation juice based on storage conditions. Hinges are symmetrically installed on the top wall of the sealing door 8, with a portion of the hinge's thin sheet fixedly connected to the side wall of the top-opening box 1, assisting the sealing door 8 in flipping and controlling the opening or closing of the discharge port on the side wall of the top-opening box 1, facilitating subsequent automatic waste discharge.

[0023] Furthermore, the sealing assembly 2 is installed at the top opening of the top-opening box 1. The sealing assembly 2 includes a box cover 21, a cleaning brush 22, a lever 23, and a conduit 24. The top ends of multiple bolts 3, which are fixedly installed on the top wall of the top-opening box 1, penetrate multiple positioning holes opened on the box cover 21, so that the box cover 21 is arranged on the top wall of the top-opening box 1 and seals the top opening of the top-opening box 1, which facilitates the subsequent filtration of fermentation juice. At the same time, multiple nuts 11, which are sleeved on the outer surface of the bolts 3, are arranged at the top of the box cover 21, which serves to position the box cover 21 and facilitates its disassembly. The two cleaning brushes 22 and the two levers 23 are symmetrically installed on the bottom wall of the box cover 21. The cleaning brushes 22 are arranged in an N-shape, which is conducive to subsequent cleaning operations. The conduit 24 is inserted into the reserved opening on the box cover 21, which facilitates the introduction of fermentation juice into the top-opening box 1 through the conduit 24.

[0024] Furthermore, the first filter assembly 5 is disposed inside the top-opening box 1. The first filter assembly 5 includes a rotating cylinder 51, a first filter screen 52, an automatic telescopic rod 53, a push plate 54, a sealing ring 55, and a brush plate 56. The first filter screen 52 is mounted on the top of the rotating cylinder 51, and two cleaning brushes 22 are inserted into the first filter screen 52, so that the first filter screen 52 in the rotating state can clean the inner and outer walls with the assistance of the cleaning brushes 22, thereby improving the filtration effect. The first filter screen 52 is cylindrical. The two automatic telescopic rods 53 are symmetrically installed on the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 51. The output ends of the two automatic telescopic rods 53 are connected to the bottom wall of the push plate 54, which facilitates pushing the push plate 54 to push the cleaned impurities to the top of the first filter screen 52, and then cleaning them with the push plate 23. The sealing ring 55 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 51 and is positioned below the notch of the push plate 54. The notch of the push plate 54 is located below the inner end of the cleaning brush 22, so as not to affect the rotation of the first filter assembly 5.

[0025] Furthermore, the second filter assembly 6 is fitted onto the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 51. The second filter assembly 6 includes a second filter screen 61, an auxiliary ring 62, and a limiting rotating ring 63. The second filter screen 61 is fitted onto the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 51 and is arranged in the shape of an open disc for secondary filtration of the fermented juice, thereby improving the filtration effect. The cleaning surface of the brush plate 56 contacts the top wall of the second filter screen 61, which facilitates the cleaning of impurities on the top wall of the second filter screen 61 during rotation, reducing the impact of impurity accumulation on filtration. The limiting rotating ring 63 is fixedly installed on the top wall of the auxiliary ring 62, which is located below the second filter screen 61. The limiting rotating ring 63 is embedded in the limiting rotating groove opened on the bottom wall of the second filter screen 61 to avoid affecting the subsequent rotation of the first filter assembly 5.

[0026] Furthermore, the drive assembly 4 is arranged on the sealing assembly 2 and the top opening box 1. The drive assembly 4 includes a motor 41, a rotating shaft 42, a screw 43, a movable rod 44, a first hinge seat 45, a hinge rod 46, a second hinge seat 47, a plug 48, and a limiting slider 49. The motor 41 is fixedly installed in a groove opened in the top wall of the box cover 21. A first rotating hole is opened in the top wall of the box cover 21, and a second rotating hole is opened in the bottom wall of the rotating cylinder 51. Both the first rotating hole and the second rotating hole contain... A sealed bearing is provided, with two sealed bearings sleeved on the outer surface wall of the rotating shaft 42. The bottom end of the rotating shaft 42 passes through the first rotating hole and the second rotating hole. The screw 43 is located below the rotating cylinder 51. The end of the screw 43 passes through the threaded hole opened on the movable rod 44 and is inserted into the circular groove opened on the bottom end of the rotating shaft 42, so that the auxiliary bearing embedded in the circular groove is sleeved on the outer surface wall of the screw 43. The auxiliary screw 43 can rotate to adjust the height of the movable rod 44.

[0027] Two double-opening first hinge seats 45 are symmetrically installed on the top wall of the movable rod 44. Multiple second hinge seats 47 are grouped in pairs. The limiting sliders 49 welded to the top wall of the two second hinge seats 47 in each group are embedded in the limiting grooves symmetrically opened on the bottom wall of the rotating drum 51 to assist the second hinge seats 47 in moving at the bottom of the rotating drum 51. Multiple hinge rods 46 are also grouped in pairs and are arranged with a single opening, so that the two ends of the hinge rods 46 are respectively hinged to the corresponding second hinge seats 47 and first hinge seats 45, so that the position of the second hinge seats 47 can be adjusted during the lifting and lowering of the movable rod 44. Multiple plugs 48 are respectively installed on the opposite wall of each pair of second hinge seats 47 in each group, and are respectively inserted into the first insertion hole symmetrically opened on the rotating shaft 42 and the second insertion hole symmetrically opened on the inner wall of the auxiliary ring 62, which is conducive to the rotation of the rotating drum 51 under the drive of the motor 41. The first filter screen 52 in the rotating state can achieve automatic cleaning with the setting of the cleaning brush 22.

[0028] In this embodiment, the fermentation juice is introduced into the first filter screen 52 through the conduit 24, so that the fermentation juice is filtered under the setting of the first filter screen 52. At the same time, under the setting of the second filter screen 61, a secondary filtration is achieved, improving the filtration effect. Under the monitoring of the liquid level sensor 7, the filtered fermentation juice is conveniently discharged through the solenoid valve 10. Then, the starting motor 41 drives the rotating shaft 42 to drive the screw 43 to rotate. Since the bottom of the rotating drum 51 is provided with a sliding limit slider 49, the movable rod 44 is connected to the second hinge seat 47, the hinge rod 46 and the first hinge seat 45. The hinge mechanism allows the rotating drum 51 to rotate, enabling the first filter screen 52 to expel fermentation juice more quickly, thus improving filtration efficiency. Furthermore, the cleaning brush 22 automatically cleans the inner and outer walls of the first filter screen 52 during rotation, reducing impurities that could affect subsequent filtration operations. The rotating drum 51 also allows the brush plate 56 to clean impurities at the top of the second filter assembly 6, preventing impurities from accumulating and affecting fermentation juice filtration. This eliminates the need for manual cleaning of the filter structure. To simplify cleaning, when it's necessary to remove impurities from the filter, the sealing door 8 can be opened to activate the automatic telescopic rod 53, which pushes the push plate 54 upward. This pushes the impurities in the first filter screen 52 to its top opening. Then, driven by the motor 41, the rotating drum 51, propelled by the symmetrically mounted paddles 23 on the bottom wall of the cover 21, cleans the impurities onto the second filter screen 61. The rotation of the brush plate 56 accelerates the automatic discharge of impurities from the second filter screen 61 through the outlet, further reducing the labor intensity and cleaning pressure on the staff. When the second filter screen 61 and the first filter screen 52 need to be replaced, the nut 11 can be unscrewed to release the restriction on the sealing component 2, so that the sealing component 2, the drive component 4, the first filter component 5 and the second filter component 6 can be taken out from the top opening box 1. Then, by turning the screw 43, the movable rod 44 is driven to rise, so that the plug 48 is disengaged from the first and second sockets corresponding to the position, and the connection between the second filter screen 61 and the rotating drum 51 is released, which makes it convenient to replace the second filter screen 61 and avoids impurities from entering the filtered fermentation juice after damage, thus reducing the filtration quality of the fermentation juice.

[0029] The above specific embodiments are merely several preferred embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
