Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrasonic cleaning technology, and in particular to a malt cleaning device for beer production. Background Technology

[0002] Beer is a fermented beverage made primarily from malt and water, with the addition of hops (including hop products), and fermented with yeast. It contains carbon dioxide and can form foam.

[0003] Before fermentation, malt needs to be cleaned to remove dust or stains adhering to its surface. Due to the small size of malt, a wire mesh frame is required during the cleaning process. The malt is placed in the wire mesh frame and then placed in an ultrasonic malt cleaning machine for cleaning. However, the malt tends to pile up, which slows down the flow of the cleaning solution and reduces the effect of ultrasonic vibration in accelerating the flow of the solution, resulting in a decrease in the dirt removal efficiency of the cleaning device. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a beer production malt cleaning device to address the problem that accumulated malt slows down the flow rate of the cleaning solution, reduces the effect of ultrasonic vibration in accelerating solution flow, and consequently lowers the dirt removal efficiency of the cleaning device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a beer malt cleaning device, comprising an ultrasonic cleaner body, wherein a mesh frame is provided inside the ultrasonic cleaner body, and an auxiliary device is provided inside the mesh frame. The auxiliary device assists in separating the accumulated malt by having several support plates with a certain spacing slide back and forth inside the mesh frame. A water outlet pipe is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the ultrasonic cleaner body, and the inner wall of the water outlet pipe is connected to the inner wall of the ultrasonic cleaner body.

[0006] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: by setting several support plates, the support plates will push the malt during the movement inside the mesh frame, forcing the accumulated malt to separate from each other, which helps to prevent the accumulated malt from slowing down the flow rate of the cleaning liquid, thereby improving the effect of ultrasonic vibration to accelerate the flow of the solution and improving the dirt removal efficiency of the cleaning device.

[0007] Preferably, the auxiliary device includes an auxiliary plate, which is disposed on the top of the mesh frame. A rectangular plate is slidably inserted into the inner wall of the auxiliary plate. Both ends of the rectangular plate are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the mesh frame through a disassembly and assembly assembly. Several support plates are evenly fixedly installed on the bottom of the auxiliary plate. The support plates are disposed inside the mesh frame, and the bottom of the support plates abuts against the bottom of the inner wall of the mesh frame. The distance between two support plates is slightly larger than the diameter of the malt.

[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the auxiliary plate is pushed to move at the top of the frame, and the auxiliary plate will drive the support plate to move inside the frame. During the movement of several support plates, the malt will be pushed, so that the bearing passes through the gap between adjacent support plates. The distance between the support plates is slightly larger than the diameter of the malt, but less than twice the diameter of the malt. This makes it possible for the malt to pass through the gap between adjacent support plates one by one, forcing the piled malt to separate from each other.

[0009] Preferably, one of the edges of two adjacent support plates on the side closest to each other is arc-shaped.

[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting one edge of the side of the two adjacent support plates that are close to each other to be arc-shaped, the accommodating width of the entrance between the two partition plates can be increased, making it easier for the malt to enter between the two support plates. At the same time, only the entrance is enlarged, without affecting the separation of the support plates from the malt.

[0011] Preferably, a rubber strip is fixedly installed at the other edge of two adjacent support plates on the side closest to each other, and the horizontal cross-section of the rubber strip is triangular.

[0012] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is as follows: by setting up triangular rubber strips, when malt enters between the two support plates, the malt that enters later will squeeze the malt that enters earlier (since the malt is for fermentation, even if it is crushed, it will not affect the normal use of the malt). This causes the malt to squeeze the rubber strip, which in turn causes the rubber strip to deform. After the malt passes through the rubber strip and reaches the other side of the support plate, the rubber strip will reset, thus temporarily blocking the subsequent malt and preventing the malt from piling up again.

[0013] Preferably, a fixing assembly is provided between the auxiliary plate and the rectangular plate. The fixing assembly includes a threaded push rod, which is threaded into the inner wall of the auxiliary plate and disposed on one side of the rectangular plate.

[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: when the cleaning device is operating normally, rotating the threaded push rod so that one end of the threaded push rod abuts against the top of the rectangular plate, the threaded push rod can fix the auxiliary plate and the rectangular plate, thereby helping to prevent the support plate and the auxiliary plate from easily shifting and affecting the cleaning of malt.

[0015] Preferably, an operating block is fixedly installed at one end of the threaded push rod, a spring is rotatably installed on one side of the operating block, one end of the spring is fixedly installed on the top of the auxiliary plate, the spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the threaded push rod, and a rubber plate is adhered to the inner wall of the top of the rectangular plate.

[0016] The effects achieved by the above components are as follows: by setting a spring, the threaded ejector rod and the auxiliary plate can be connected, which helps to prevent the threaded ejector rod from easily detaching from the inner wall of the auxiliary plate. At the same time, the spring and the operating block can rotate, so that the operating block and the threaded ejector rod will not drive the spring to rotate and cause damage to the spring when they rotate. Furthermore, by setting a rubber plate, the friction between the threaded ejector rod and the rectangular plate can be increased, making the fixation of the threaded ejector rod to the auxiliary plate and the rectangular plate more stable.

[0017] Preferably, the disassembly and assembly assembly includes two slot blocks, which are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of one end of the rectangular plate. Threaded pins are inserted into the inner wall of each slot block, and one end of each threaded pin is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the mesh frame. A nut is threaded onto the outer surface of each threaded pin.

[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the slotted block is fitted onto the outer surface of the threaded pin, and then the nut is rotated so that the nut presses against the slotted block, so that one side of the slotted block abuts against the inner wall of the mesh frame. At the same time, the rectangular plate can be disassembled, which facilitates the separate maintenance and cleaning of the auxiliary plate and the support plate.

[0019] Preferably, limiting plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the mesh frame, the bottom of the rectangular plate abuts against the top of the limiting plate, and a round block is fixedly installed on one end of the threaded pin.

[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: by setting two limiting plates, the bottom of both ends of the rectangular plate can be supported and limited respectively, which helps to improve the stability of the rectangular plate installation. At the same time, by setting a round block, one end of the threaded pin is blocked, which helps to prevent the nut from easily disengaging from the threaded pin.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0022] In this invention, by setting several support plates, the support plates will push the malt as they move inside the mesh frame, forcing the accumulated malt to separate from each other. This helps to prevent the accumulated malt from slowing down the flow rate of the cleaning liquid, thereby improving the effect of ultrasonic vibration to accelerate the flow of the solution and improving the dirt removal efficiency of the cleaning device.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] Example 1, referring to Figures 1-3 As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses a beer production malt cleaning device, including an ultrasonic cleaner body 1. The ultrasonic cleaner body 1 has a mesh frame 2 inside, and an auxiliary device 3 inside the mesh frame 2. The auxiliary device 3 uses several support plates 33 with a certain distance between them to slide back and forth inside the mesh frame 2 to assist in separating the accumulated malt. A water outlet pipe is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the ultrasonic cleaner body 1, and the inner wall of the water outlet pipe is connected to the inner wall of the ultrasonic cleaner body 1. By setting several support plates 33, the support plates 33 will push the malt during the movement inside the mesh frame 2, forcing the accumulated malt to separate from each other. This helps to prevent the accumulated malt from slowing down the flow rate of the cleaning liquid, thereby improving the effect of ultrasonic vibration to accelerate the flow of the solution and improving the dirt removal efficiency of the cleaning device.

[0030] Reference Figures 2-4 As shown, the auxiliary device 3 includes an auxiliary plate 31, which is set on the top of the wire mesh frame 2. A rectangular plate 32 is slidably inserted into the inner wall of the auxiliary plate 31. Both ends of the rectangular plate 32 are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the wire mesh frame 2 by the disassembly and assembly components 5. Several support plates 33 are evenly fixedly installed on the bottom of the auxiliary plate 31. The support plates 33 are all set inside the wire mesh frame 2, and the bottom of the support plates 33 abuts against the bottom of the inner wall of the wire mesh frame 2. The distance between two support plates 33 is slightly larger than the diameter of the malt. Pushing the auxiliary plate 31 to move on the top of the wire mesh frame 2 will cause the support plates 33 to move inside the wire mesh frame 2. During the movement of the support plates 33, they will push the malt, causing the bearing to pass through the gap between adjacent support plates 33. Since the distance between the support plates 33 is slightly larger than the diameter of the malt, the malt can only pass through the gap between adjacent support plates 33 individually, forcing the accumulated malt to separate from each other.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, one edge of the side where two adjacent support plates 33 are close together is arc-shaped. By making one edge of the side where two adjacent support plates 33 are close together arc-shaped, the accommodating width of the entrance between the two partitions can be increased, making it easier for malt to enter between the two support plates 33. At the same time, only the entrance is enlarged, without affecting the separation of the support plates 33 from the malt. A rubber strip 34 is fixedly installed on the other edge of the side where two adjacent support plates 33 are close together. The horizontal cross section of the rubber strip 34 is triangular. By setting the triangular rubber strip 34, when malt enters between the two support plates 33, the later-entering malt will squeeze the earlier-entering malt, causing the malt to squeeze the rubber strip 34 and deform it. After the malt passes through the rubber strip 34 and reaches the other side of the support plate 33, the rubber strip 34 will reset, thus temporarily blocking the subsequent malt and preventing the malt from piling up again.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a fixing assembly 4 is provided between the auxiliary plate 31 and the rectangular plate 32. The fixing assembly 4 includes a threaded push rod 41, which is threaded into the inner wall of the auxiliary plate 31. The threaded push rod 41 is located on one side of the rectangular plate 32. During normal operation of the cleaning device, rotating the threaded push rod 41 causes one end of the threaded push rod 41 to abut against the top of the rectangular plate 32, thereby fixing the auxiliary plate 31 and the rectangular plate 32. This helps prevent the support plate 33 and the auxiliary plate 31 from easily shifting and affecting the cleaning of the malt. An operating block 42 is fixedly installed at one end of the threaded push rod 41, and a spring 43 is rotatably installed on one side of the operating block 42. One end of the spring 43 is fixedly installed... The spring 43 is sleeved on the outer surface of the threaded push rod 41 and fixedly installed on the top of the auxiliary plate 31. A rubber plate 44 is bonded to the inner wall of the top of the rectangular plate 32. By setting the spring 43, the threaded push rod 41 and the auxiliary plate 31 can be connected, which helps to prevent the threaded push rod 41 from easily detaching from the inner wall of the auxiliary plate 31. At the same time, the spring 43 and the operating block 42 can rotate, so that the operating block 42 and the threaded push rod 41 will not drive the spring 43 to rotate and cause damage to the spring 43 when they rotate. By setting the rubber plate 44, the friction between the threaded push rod 41 and the rectangular plate 32 can be increased, making the fixation of the threaded push rod 41 to the auxiliary plate 31 and the rectangular plate 32 more stable.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the disassembly and assembly component 5 includes two slot blocks 51, which are symmetrically fixed on both sides of one end of the rectangular plate 32. Threaded pins 52 are inserted into the inner wall of each slot block 51, with one end of each pin fixed to one side of the inner wall of the mesh frame 2. Nuts 53 are threaded onto the outer surface of each pin. By fitting the slot block 51 onto the outer surface of the pin 52 and then rotating the nut 53, the nut 53 presses against the slot block 51, causing one side of the slot block 51 to abut against the inner wall of the mesh frame 2, thus fixing the rectangular plate 32 and the mesh frame 2. This also allows for the fixation of the rectangular plate... 32 is disassembled to facilitate separate maintenance and cleaning of auxiliary plate 31 and support plate 33; limit plates 54 are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the mesh frame 2, the bottom of the rectangular plate 32 abuts against the top of the limit plate 54, and a round block 55 is fixedly installed on one end of the threaded pin 52. By setting two limit plates 54, the bottom of both ends of the rectangular plate 32 can be supported and limited respectively, which helps to improve the stability of the installation of the rectangular plate 32. At the same time, by setting the round block 55, one end of the threaded pin 52 is blocked, which helps to prevent the nut 53 from easily disengaging from the threaded pin 52.

[0034] Working principle: The auxiliary plate 31 is moved at the top of the mesh frame 2. The auxiliary plate 31 drives the support plates 33 to move inside the mesh frame 2. During the movement of several support plates 33, they push the malt, causing the bearing to pass through the gap between adjacent support plates 33. The distance between the support plates 33 is slightly larger than the diameter of the malt, but less than twice the diameter of the bearing. This ensures that the malt can only pass through the gap between adjacent support plates 33 one by one. At the same time, one edge of the side of two adjacent support plates 33 that is close to each other is set to be arc-shaped, which can increase the width of the entrance for the malt to enter between the two partitions, making it easier for the malt to enter between the two support plates 33. When the malt enters between the two support plates 33, the malt that enters later will squeeze the malt that entered earlier, causing the malt to squeeze the rubber strip 34, which will deform. After the malt passes through the rubber strip 34 to reach the other side of the support plate 33, the rubber strip 34 will... The reset occurs, temporarily blocking the subsequent malt, which helps prevent the malt from piling up again and forces the piled malt to separate. During normal operation of the cleaning device, rotating the operating block 42 drives the threaded push rod 41 to rotate, so that one end of the threaded push rod 41 abuts against the rubber plate 44 on the top of the rectangular plate 32. The threaded push rod 41 can fix the auxiliary plate 31 and the rectangular plate 32, which helps prevent the support plate 33 and the auxiliary plate 31 from easily shifting and affecting the cleaning of malt. The slot block 51 is fitted onto the outer surface of the threaded pin 52, so that one side of the rectangular plate 32 abuts against the top of the limiting plate 54. Then, the nut 53 is rotated, so that the nut 53 squeezes the slot block 51, so that one side of the slot block 51 abuts against the inner wall of the mesh frame 2, which can fix the rectangular plate 32 and the mesh frame 2. After cleaning, the cleaning liquid can be drained from the outlet and the cleaned malt can be taken out.
