Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically to a centrifugal milk purification device for processing milk products. Background Technology

[0002] Centrifugal milk purifiers are used to separate milk fat and other impurities from milk to obtain pure milk. Existing centrifugal milk purifiers include a raw milk feed pipe, a first flow regulating valve, a drum, discs, a dovetail trough, a filter screen, a slag discharge valve, a pressure water chamber, a rotating shaft, a purified milk discharge pipe, a second flow regulating valve, and an inclined baffle. The raw milk feed pipe passes through the drum and extends into the dovetail trough. An inclined baffle is installed below the dovetail trough. The first flow regulating valve is installed on the raw milk feed pipe and is compatible with it. A filter screen with a mesh size of 0.7mm-0.85mm is installed at the bottom of the raw milk feed pipe. Discs and a slag discharge valve are installed inside the drum. A support base is fixedly installed on the drum base. The rotating shaft passes through the drum base and the support base and extends into the inclined baffle. The purified milk discharge pipe passes through the drum and is equipped with a second flow regulating valve. The amount of raw milk fed and the amount of purified milk discharged can be adjusted, and the liquid surface area of ​​raw milk subjected to centrifugal force is very extensive.

[0003] Existing centrifugal milk purifiers have the following problems: after high-speed centrifugation, the milk fat and other impurities in the milk will adhere to the inner wall of the rotor under the action of centrifugal force, making it difficult to clean the inner wall of the rotor in time, thus affecting the subsequent milk purification effect.

[0004] Based on the above situation, there is an urgent need for a centrifugal milk purification device for dairy product processing to solve the problem of difficulty in timely cleaning of the inner wall of the rotating drum. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that, in existing centrifugal milk purifiers, after high-speed centrifugation, milk fat and other impurities in the milk adhere to the inner wall of the rotor under the action of centrifugal force, making it difficult to clean the inner wall of the rotor in a timely manner, thus affecting the subsequent milk purification effect. This invention solves the problem of the difficulty in cleaning the inner wall of the rotor in a timely manner.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A centrifugal milk purification device for processing dairy products, comprising:

[0008] The tank body is positioned on a flat surface;

[0009] The inner liner is rotatably connected to the tank body;

[0010] A centrifugal mechanism connects to and drives the inner liner to rotate;

[0011] The scraping mechanism includes a guide rod detachably mounted on the tank body, a slider mounted on the guide rod and an operating rod passing through the slider, and a scraper connected to one end of the operating rod.

[0012] In existing centrifugal milk purifiers, after the milk undergoes high-speed centrifugation, milk fat and other impurities adhere to the inner wall of the rotor under centrifugal force, making it difficult to clean the inner wall in a timely manner and thus affecting the subsequent milk purification effect. In this solution, the centrifugal mechanism drives the inner tank and milk to rotate at high speed. Under the action of centrifugal force, milk fat and other impurities in the milk separate from the milk and adhere to the inner wall of the inner tank. By adjusting the slider with the operating rod, the scraper extends into the inner tank and contacts the inner wall. The centrifugal mechanism drives the inner tank to rotate, and the scraper can scrape off the adhering substances on the inner wall of the inner tank and rinse with clean water to avoid contamination of the milk in subsequent processing. This solves the problem of difficulty in cleaning the inner wall of the rotor in a timely manner.

[0013] Furthermore, to prevent the scraper from scratching the inner liner, one feasible solution is to provide a flexible scraping end on the scraper. When this solution is adopted, since the hardness of the scraping end is much less than that of the inner liner, it can avoid scratching the inner liner.

[0014] Furthermore, in order to reduce the angular offset generated during the rotation of the inner liner, one feasible solution is to form a tapering step at the top of the inner liner, and install a vibration damping component on the tank body that cooperates with the tapering step. When this solution is adopted, the vibration damping component limits the inner liner, thereby reducing the angular offset of the inner liner and effectively protecting the bearings or other rotating parts installed on the inner liner.

[0015] Furthermore, this solution does not exclusively limit the specific structure of the vibration damping component. One feasible solution is that the vibration damping component includes a roller and a spring installed between the roller and the tank body. The spring is used to push the roller towards the constriction step. When this solution is adopted, under the pushing force of the spring, the angular offset of the inner liner can be reduced, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the inner liner.

[0016] Furthermore, this solution is not limited to the specific structure of the centrifuge mechanism. One feasible solution is that the centrifuge mechanism includes a pulley mounted on the inner liner, a motor mounted on the tank body, and an annular belt installed between the pulley and the motor. When this solution is adopted, the motor drives the pulley and the inner liner to rotate synchronously. Due to the overload slippage characteristics of belt drive, the motor can be effectively protected.

[0017] Furthermore, to facilitate the discharge of milk or cleaning solution after purification, one feasible solution is as follows: a drain pipe is formed on the tank body and communicates with the inner liner, and a valve is installed on the drain pipe. A rotary joint is installed between the drain pipe and the inner liner. When this solution is adopted, the rotary joint can ensure the sealing between the inner liner and the drain pipe, and the valve can be opened to facilitate the discharge of milk or cleaning solution after purification.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. The centrifugal mechanism drives the inner tank and milk to rotate at high speed. Under the action of centrifugal force, the milk fat and other impurities in the milk are separated from the milk and adhere to the inner wall of the inner tank. The slider is adjusted by the operating rod, so that the scraper extends into the inner tank and contacts the inner wall of the inner tank. The centrifugal mechanism drives the inner tank to rotate. Under the action of the scraper, the adhering substances on the inner wall of the inner tank can be scraped off and rinsed with clean water to avoid contamination of the milk in subsequent processing. This solves the problem of difficulty in timely cleaning of the inner wall of the rotating tank.

[0020] Second, since the upper part of the inner liner has a tapering step, and the tank body is equipped with a vibration damping component that cooperates with the tapering step, the inner liner is limited by the vibration damping component, thereby reducing the angular offset of the inner liner and effectively protecting the bearings or other rotating parts installed on the inner liner.

[0021] Third, since the tank body has a drain pipe that communicates with the inner liner and a valve is installed on the drain pipe, and a rotary joint is installed between the drain pipe and the inner liner, the rotary joint can ensure the sealing between the inner liner and the drain pipe. Opening the valve is to facilitate the discharge of milk or cleaning liquid after milking. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, the term "comprising" or any other variations thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

[0035] The features and performance of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0036] Example:

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 A centrifugal milk purification device for processing dairy products, comprising:

[0038] Tank 1 is positioned on a flat surface;

[0039] Inner liner 2 is rotatably connected to tank body 1;

[0040] Centrifugal mechanism 3 connects to and drives the inner liner 2 to rotate;

[0041] The scraping mechanism 4 includes a guide rod 41 that is detachably installed on the tank body 1. A slider 42 is installed on the guide rod 41 and an operating rod 43 passes through the slider 42. One end of the operating rod 43 is connected to a scraper 44.

[0042] In existing centrifugal milk purifiers, after the milk undergoes high-speed centrifugation, the milk fat and other impurities in the milk adhere to the inner wall of the rotor under the action of centrifugal force, making it difficult to clean the inner wall in a timely manner, thus affecting the subsequent milk purification effect. In this solution, the centrifugal mechanism 3 drives the inner tank 2 and the milk to rotate at high speed. Under the action of centrifugal force, the milk fat and other impurities in the milk separate from the milk and adhere to the inner wall of the inner tank 2. The slider 42 is adjusted by the operating rod 43, which causes the scraper 44 to extend into the inner tank 2 and contact the inner wall of the inner tank 2. The centrifugal mechanism 3 drives the inner tank 2 to rotate, and under the action of the scraper 44, the adhering substances on the inner wall of the inner tank 2 can be scraped off and rinsed with clean water to avoid contamination of the milk in subsequent processing. This solves the problem of difficulty in cleaning the inner wall of the rotor in a timely manner.

[0043] Reference Figure 4 To prevent the scraper 44 from scratching the inner liner 2, one feasible solution is to provide a flexible scraping end 45 on the scraper 44. Specifically, in this embodiment, the scraping end 45 is made of silicone or rubber. When this solution is adopted, since the hardness of the scraping end 45 is much less than that of the inner liner 2, it can avoid scratching the inner liner 2.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In order to reduce the angular offset generated during the rotation of the inner liner 2, one feasible solution is: the upper part of the inner liner 2 is formed with a constriction step 21, and a vibration damping component 5 that cooperates with the constriction step 21 is installed on the tank body. When this solution is adopted, the inner liner 2 is limited by the vibration damping component 5, thereby reducing the angular offset of the inner liner 2 and effectively protecting the rotating parts.

[0045] This solution does not exclusively limit the specific structure of the vibration damping component 5. One feasible solution is that the vibration damping component 5 includes a roller 51 and a spring 52 installed between the roller 51 and the tank body 1. The spring 52 is used to push the roller 51 towards the constriction step 21. Specifically, in this embodiment, the roller 51 is connected to a rod 53 and the rod 53 is slidably connected to the tank body 1. When this solution is adopted, under the pushing force of the spring 52, the angular offset of the inner liner 2 can be reduced, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the inner liner 2.

[0046] Reference Figure 5 This solution does not limit the specific structure of the centrifuge mechanism 3. One feasible solution is that the centrifuge mechanism 3 includes a pulley 31 installed on the inner liner 2, a motor 32 installed on the tank body 1, and an annular belt 33 installed between the pulley 31 and the motor 32. When this solution is adopted, the motor 32 drives the pulley 31 and the inner liner 2 to rotate synchronously. Due to the overload slippage characteristics of the belt drive, the motor 32 can be effectively protected.

[0047] To facilitate the discharge of purified milk or cleaning solution, one feasible solution is as follows: a drain pipe 11 is formed on the tank body 1, which is connected to the inner liner 2, and a valve 12 is installed on the drain pipe 11. A rotary joint 13 is installed between the drain pipe 11 and the inner liner 2. When this solution is adopted, the rotary joint 13 can ensure the sealing between the inner liner 2 and the drain pipe 11. The valve 12 is opened to facilitate the discharge of purified milk or cleaning solution.

[0048] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0049] Close valve 12, pour milk into inner tank 2 for centrifugal purification, and after purification, open valve 12 to discharge pure milk. After several purification cycles, close valve 12 and pour clean water into inner tank 2. Rotate operating lever 43 to a vertical position so that scraper 44 can extend into inner tank 2. Then move slider 42 along the axial direction of guide rod 41 so that scraper end 45 contacts the inner wall of inner tank 2. The motor 32 drives inner tank 2 to rotate and scrape off the attached material. Then open valve 12 to discharge the attached material with clean water and reset scraper mechanism 4.

[0050] To address the challenge of timely cleaning of the inner wall of the rotating drum, this solution employs a centrifugal mechanism 3 to drive the inner drum 2 and the milk to rotate at high speed. Under centrifugal force, milk fat and other impurities in the milk separate from the milk and adhere to the inner wall of the inner drum 2. The slider 42 is adjusted via the operating rod 43, causing the scraper 44 to extend into the inner drum 2 and contact its inner wall. The centrifugal mechanism 3 drives the inner drum 2 to rotate, and the scraper 44 scrapes away the deposits on the inner wall of the inner drum 2 and rinses it with clean water, preventing contamination of the milk in subsequent processing. This solution effectively addresses the problem of timely cleaning of the inner wall of the rotating drum.

[0051] In order to protect the rotating parts, in this solution, since the upper part of the inner liner 2 is formed with a tapering step 21, the tank body is equipped with a vibration damping component 5 that cooperates with the tapering step 21. The vibration damping component 5 limits the inner liner 2, thereby reducing the angular offset of the inner liner 2 and effectively protecting the bearings or other rotating parts installed on the inner liner 2.

[0052] To facilitate the discharge of purified milk or cleaning solution, in this design, a drain pipe 11 is formed on the tank body 1, which is connected to the inner liner 2, and a valve 12 is installed on the drain pipe 11. A rotary joint 13 is installed between the drain pipe 11 and the inner liner 2. The rotary joint 13 can ensure the sealing between the inner liner 2 and the drain pipe 11. The valve 12 is opened to facilitate the discharge of purified milk or cleaning solution.

[0053] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
