Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of gelatin extraction equipment, and in particular to a gelatin solid-liquid separation device. Background Technology
[0002] Gelatin is a water-soluble protein extracted from animal collagen and is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial fields. The main raw materials are collagen-rich tissues such as animal bones (bovine bones, pig bones), hides (cowhide, pig skin), or fish scales. After cleaning, cutting, and defatting, the raw materials require further extraction and purification of the gelatinous solution, followed by final drying to obtain the finished gelatin product. Gelatin extraction typically employs conventional equipment such as gelatin boiling tanks, boiling pots, and gelatin extraction pots. Pre-treated raw materials are mixed with hot water for soaking or boiling. During extraction, some solids form or remain in the gelatin solution, requiring solid-liquid separation followed by purification. Current technology connects a recovery pump to one end of the extraction pot, pumping the extracted solution into a clarifying tank for further purification. However, the remaining solids contain not only solid impurities but also a certain amount of gelatin. To avoid loss, further centrifugation is necessary. The centrifuged solution is then pumped back to the clarifying tank. While this method recovers most of the gelatin, it requires complex equipment such as a recovery pump, centrifuge, and clarifying tank. The solids must be transferred from the extraction pot to the centrifuge for centrifugation before the solution is recovered, making the process cumbersome and inefficient. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a gelatin solid-liquid separation device to solve one or more of the problems mentioned above.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a gelatin solid-liquid separation device, including a gelatin extraction pot:
[0005] A feeding cylinder is rotatably connected to the top center of the glue-lifting pot. The feeding cylinder is designed as a cylindrical shape coaxial with the glue-lifting pot. A feeding port is opened at the top of the feeding cylinder. A driving device is provided at the top of the glue-lifting pot to drive the feeding cylinder to rotate axially.
[0006] The bottom end of the feeding cylinder extends into the glue-lifting pot. One side of the bottom end of the feeding cylinder is connected to an inclined horizontal discharge cylinder. The bottom end of the discharge cylinder has a strip-shaped discharge port along its length. The two sides of the strip-shaped discharge port are rotatably connected to sealing plates. The sealing plates rotate downward under their own weight to make the strip-shaped discharge port initially open. Limiting components are provided on both sides inside the strip-shaped discharge port.
[0007] The bottom of the glue-extracting pot is equipped with a filter plate. A telescopic part is vertically connected to the center of the feeding cylinder. The movable end of the telescopic part extends downward through the feeding cylinder and is connected to the top of the filter plate. A discharge port is provided on the upper side of the glue-extracting pot. When solid-liquid separation is required in the glue-extracting pot, the telescopic part drives the filter plate to move upward until the bottom end of the sealing plate abuts against the filter plate. The filter plate pushes the sealing plate to rotate upward until the strip-shaped discharge port is closed by the sealing plate. At the same time, the sealing plate is limited by the limiting component to keep the strip-shaped discharge port closed.
[0008] Preferably, a feeding conveyor belt is installed above the top of the glue-extracting pot, and the conveying end of the feeding conveyor belt is located above the feeding port.
[0009] Preferably, an external gear ring is circumferentially connected to the outer side of the feeding cylinder, and the driving device includes an external gear rotatably connected to the top of the glue-lifting pot, the external gear meshing with the external gear ring.
[0010] Preferably, the portion of the telescopic part located inside the feeding cylinder is covered with a protective cover, and the bottom end of the protective cover is sealed to the bottom end of the feeding cylinder.
[0011] Preferably, the limiting component is a magnetic suction plate symmetrically arranged on both sides inside the strip-shaped material discharge port. When the sealing plate rotates upward until the strip-shaped material discharge port is closed by the sealing plate, one end of the sealing plate is magnetically attracted by the magnetic suction plate.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A feeding cylinder is rotatably connected to the center of the top of the glue-lifting pot. The bottom end of the feeding cylinder extends into the glue-lifting pot. An inclined, horizontally placed discharge cylinder is connected to one side of the bottom end of the feeding cylinder. A strip-shaped discharge port is opened along the length of the bottom end of the discharge port. Sealing plates are rotatably connected to both sides of the strip-shaped discharge port. The sealing plates rotate downward under their own weight to make the strip-shaped discharge port initially open. A filter plate is provided at the bottom of the glue-lifting pot. A telescopic part is vertically connected to the center of the feeding cylinder. The movable end of the telescopic part extends downward through the feeding cylinder and is connected to the top of the filter plate. In use, the raw material is fed into the feeding cylinder. The raw material in the feeding cylinder continuously flows downward into the discharge cylinder and accumulates along the inclined discharge cylinder. This is achieved by a driving mechanism. The feed cylinder is driven to rotate axially, which in turn drives the discharge cylinder to rotate synchronously. This ensures that the raw material falls evenly downwards along the strip-shaped discharge port, and the material is distributed throughout the extraction pot, achieving an automatic and uniform dispersion effect. After extraction is complete, the telescopic part drives the filter plate to move upwards until the bottom end of the sealing plate abuts against the filter plate. The filter plate then pushes the sealing plate to rotate upwards until the strip-shaped discharge port is closed by the sealing plate. At the same time, the sealing plate is limited by the limiting component to keep the strip-shaped discharge port closed. At this time, the discharge cylinder acts as a pressure roller, rolling the solid material around the filter plate to squeeze out the glue contained in the solid material. The glue then leaks downwards through the filter holes into the extraction pot. The rolled solid material finally falls inclinedly along the filter plate and is discharged from the discharge port. The operation is convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0026] A gelatin solid-liquid separation device includes a gelatin extraction pot 1. A feeding cylinder 2 is rotatably connected to the center of the top of the extraction pot 1. The feeding cylinder 2 is designed as a cylinder coaxial with the extraction pot 1. A feeding port 3 is opened at the top of the feeding cylinder 2. A driving device is provided at the top of the extraction pot 1 to drive the feeding cylinder 2 to rotate axially. The bottom end of the feeding cylinder 2 extends into the extraction pot 1. An inclined horizontally placed discharge cylinder 4 is connected to one side of the bottom end of the feeding cylinder 2. A strip-shaped discharge port 41 is opened along the length of the bottom end of the discharge cylinder 4. Sealing plates 5 are rotatably connected to both sides of the strip-shaped discharge port 41. The sealing plates 5 rotate downward under their own weight to make the strip-shaped discharge port 41 initially guide... In the open state, the strip-shaped discharge port 41 is provided with limiting members 6 on both sides, the bottom of the glue-collecting pot 1 is provided with a filter plate 7, and the center of the feeding cylinder 2 is vertically connected with a telescopic part 8. The movable end of the telescopic part 8 extends downward through the feeding cylinder 2 and is connected to the top of the filter plate 7. The upper side of the glue-collecting pot 1 is provided with a discharge port 9. When solid-liquid separation is required in the glue-collecting pot 1, the telescopic part 8 drives the filter plate 7 to move upward until the bottom end of the sealing plate 5 abuts against the filter plate 7. The filter plate 7 pushes the sealing plate 5 to rotate upward until the strip-shaped discharge port 41 is closed by the sealing plate 5. At the same time, the limiting members 6 limit the sealing plate 5 to keep the strip-shaped discharge port 41 closed.
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, this utility model is based on an existing conventional gelatin extraction and separation device, including a gelatin extraction pot 1. The gelatin extraction pot 1 is generally shaped as a vertical cylinder. A feeding cylinder 2 is rotatably connected to the center of the top of the gelatin extraction pot 1. The feeding cylinder 2 is also shaped as a vertical cylinder and is coaxially arranged with the gelatin extraction pot 1. A feeding port 3 is opened at the top of the feeding cylinder 2 for feeding raw materials into the feeding cylinder 2. The raw materials can be irregularly shaped solid small pieces. The bottom end of the feeding cylinder 2 has a closed bottom plate structure. A driving device is provided at the top of the gelatin extraction pot 1 for driving the feeding cylinder 2 to rotate axially. The bottom end of the feeding cylinder 2 extends into the gelatin extraction pot 1. An inclined horizontal discharge cylinder 4 is connected to one side of the bottom end of the feeding cylinder 2. That is, the discharge cylinder 4 is shaped as a horizontal cylinder and is set at a certain inclination angle. Figure 7 As shown, the material discharge cylinder 4 is not horizontally arranged; it is fixedly connected to the feeding cylinder 2. A strip-shaped discharge port 41 is provided at the bottom end of the material discharge cylinder 4 along its length. Sealing plates 5 are rotatably connected to both sides of the strip-shaped discharge port 41. The sealing plates 5 rotate downwards under their own weight. Figure 5 As shown, to ensure the strip-shaped feeding port 41 is initially open, a filter plate 7 is provided at the bottom of the glue-lifting pot 1. The filter plate 7 has multiple filter holes for downward filtration of the glue liquid. A telescopic part 8 is vertically connected at the center of the feeding cylinder 2. The telescopic part 8 can be a conventional component such as a telescopic cylinder or an electric telescopic rod. The movable end of the telescopic part 8 extends downward through the feeding cylinder 2 and is connected to the top of the filter plate 7. Specifically, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the filter plate 7 is designed in a disc shape when viewed from above. Meanwhile, a discharge port 9 is located at the upper end of one side of the glue-lifting pot 1. A conventional opening and closing door can be installed at the discharge port 9 for initial closure, such as... Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the discharge port 9 is located above the liquid surface of the adhesive in the glue-lifting pot 1. Therefore, during use, the raw material is first fed into the feeding cylinder 2. The raw material in the feeding cylinder 2 continuously flows downwards into the discharge cylinder 4 and accumulates along the inclined discharge cylinder 4. The feeding cylinder 2 is driven to rotate axially by a drive device, causing the discharge cylinder 4 to rotate synchronously. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 As shown, the raw material is evenly discharged downwards along the strip-shaped discharge port 41, and the discharged material is distributed in various areas within the extraction pot 1, achieving an automatic and uniform dispersion effect. At this time, the filter plate 7 is located at the bottom of the extraction pot 1. After the extraction is completed, when solid-liquid separation is required within the extraction pot 1, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the telescopic part 8 drives the filter plate 7 to move upward, bringing up the residual solids in the adhesive along with it, until the bottom end of the sealing plate 5 abuts against the filter plate 7. The filter plate 7 then pushes the sealing plate 5 to rotate upward until the strip-shaped discharge port 41 is closed by the sealing plate 5. Figure 6As shown, the sealing plate 5 is simultaneously limited by the limiting member 6 to keep the strip-shaped discharge port 41 closed. At this time, the feeding cylinder 2 rotates axially, driving the discharge cylinder 4 to rotate synchronously. The sealing plate 5 is designed with an arc-shaped plate that matches the discharge cylinder 4. Thus, the discharge cylinder 4 at this time is equivalent to a pressure roller, and it rolls the solid material around the filter plate 7, squeezing out the glue contained in the solid material and letting it leak down through the filter holes into the glue extraction pot 1. After the discharge cylinder 4 rotates at least one revolution along the filter plate 7, the switch door is opened so that the rolled solid material falls obliquely along the filter plate 7 and is discharged from the discharge port 9. After the solid-liquid separation is completed, the glue is completely drawn out before continuing the subsequent purification operation. Inside the glue extraction pot 1, the filter plate 7 is moved down and reset by the telescopic part 8. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 As shown, after the material discharge cylinder 4 separates from the filter plate 7, the sealing plate 5 rotates downward under its own gravity and the pushing action, and disengages from the limiting member 6. Figure 5 As shown, this allows the strip-shaped material discharge port 41 to be reset to its initial conductive state before continuing the next batch of adhesive extraction, making the operation convenient.
[0028] In the embodiments of this utility model, optionally, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a feeding conveyor belt 10 is installed above the top of the rubber extraction pot 1 to transport raw materials. The length direction of the feeding conveyor belt 10 is towards the radial direction of the feeding cylinder 2, and the end of the feeding conveyor belt 10 is located above the feeding port 3, so as to continuously feed materials into the feeding cylinder 2.
[0029] In the embodiments of this utility model, optionally, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an external gear ring 11 is circumferentially connected to the outer side of the feeding cylinder 2. Specifically, an annular groove may be formed on the outer side of the feeding cylinder 2, and the external gear ring 11 can be embedded in the annular groove and fixedly connected to the feeding cylinder 2. The driving device includes an external gear 12 rotatably connected to the top of the glue-lifting pot 1. The external gear 12 meshes with the external gear ring 11. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, it also includes conventional drive components such as motor 13. For example, the output end of motor 13 can be connected to bevel gear set 14. One end of bevel gear set 14 is fixedly connected to external gear 12, thereby driving external gear 12 to rotate axially, and then driving external gear ring 11 and feeding cylinder 2 to rotate axially.
[0030] In the embodiments of this utility model, optionally, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, the portion of the telescopic part 8 located inside the feeding cylinder 2 is covered with a protective cover 81. The bottom end of the protective cover 81 is sealed and connected to the bottom end of the feeding cylinder 2, which helps to protect the telescopic part 8 and does not affect the feeding and dropping of materials inside the feeding cylinder 2.
[0031] In the embodiments of this utility model, optionally, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the limiting member 6 is a magnetic suction plate symmetrically arranged on both sides inside the strip-shaped material discharge port 41. When the sealing plate 5 rotates upward until the strip-shaped material discharge port 41 is closed by the sealing plate 5, one end of the sealing plate 5 is magnetically attracted by the magnetic suction plate to limit the sealing plate 5, so that the strip-shaped material discharge port 41 remains closed. After the solid-liquid separation is completed, when the filter plate 7 is moved down and reset by the telescopic part 8, as shown... Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 As shown, after the material discharge cylinder 4 separates from the filter plate 7, the sealing plate 5 rotates downwards under its own gravity and the pushing action, and disengages from the magnetic attraction of the magnetic plate, as... Figure 5 As shown, this allows the strip-shaped material discharge port 41 to be reset to its initial conductive state before continuing the next batch of adhesive extraction, making the operation convenient.
[0032] A guide plate can be connected to the bottom inner side of the discharge port 9 to connect the filter plate 7 and the discharge port 9. Although the solid particles are generally large and do not easily leak down through the gap between the filter plate 7 and the discharge port 9, the guide plate further facilitates the efficient discharge of the rolled solids along the filter plate 7, the guide plate, and the discharge port 9.
[0033] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely exemplary and is not intended to imply that the scope of the present invention is limited to these examples; within the framework of the present invention, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of the present invention as described above, which are not provided in the details for the sake of brevity.
