An ultrafiltration membrane device for milk production

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of ultrafiltration membrane equipment technology, and discloses an ultrafiltration membrane device for milk production, including a frame with crossbars fixedly connected to both the upper and lower ends of the frame. This ultrafiltration membrane device for milk production, through a shock-absorbing mechanism, involves first installing a shock-absorbing filter frame through the filter tube onto the inside of the crossbars when the device is to be used. A rubber shock-absorbing ring is installed in the middle of the shock-absorbing frame, which is initially fixed to the outside of the filter tube. Then, a shock-absorbing spring is installed outside the rubber shock-absorbing ring. To ensure shock absorption while protecting the filter tube, foam cotton is filled outside the shock-absorbing spring and inside the shock-absorbing frame for shock absorption protection. This effectively reduces vibration and shaking outside the filter tube, preventing the connection between the filter tube and other parts of the equipment from gradually loosening due to vibration, which could lead to milk leakage, waste of raw materials, contamination, interference with the normal operation of the ultrafiltration process, and reduced production efficiency.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrafiltration membrane equipment technology, and in particular to an ultrafiltration membrane equipment for milk production. Background Technology

[0002] As consumers increasingly demand higher quality milk, quality control during the milk production process has become crucial. It's essential not only to ensure the complete preservation of milk's nutrients but also to remove potential impurities, microorganisms, and unwanted macromolecules to improve the milk's taste, stability, and shelf life. This places higher technical demands on key stages of milk production, such as separation and purification, thus necessitating the design of an ultrafiltration membrane device for milk production.

[0003] Continuous vibration can gradually loosen the connections between the filter tube and other components of the equipment, potentially leading to milk leakage, waste and contamination of raw materials, interference with the normal operation of the ultrafiltration process, and reduced production efficiency. Installing a shock-absorbing structure on the outside of the filter tube can effectively buffer the vibrations generated during equipment operation, reduce the swaying amplitude of the filter tube, improve the separation accuracy and efficiency of the ultrafiltration membrane, ensure the filtration quality of milk, and enhance the overall performance of the ultrafiltration membrane equipment. The inlet pipe is affected by the impact force of liquid flow and the vibration of the equipment itself, causing the connection to gradually loosen and leak milk. Frequent loosening can also cause wear on the inlet pipe and equipment interfaces, further increasing the risk of leakage. Installing a sealing structure can effectively prevent milk leakage, enabling the ultrafiltration membrane equipment to operate continuously and stably, and improving the efficiency of milk production.

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0015] This utility model provides an ultrafiltration membrane device for milk production, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This ultrafiltration membrane equipment for milk production uses a shock-absorbing mechanism. When the equipment is to be used, the shock-absorbing filter frame is first installed inside the crossbar through the filter tube. Since a rubber shock-absorbing ring is installed in the middle of the shock-absorbing frame, it is initially fixed by fitting the filter tube outside the frame. Then, a shock-absorbing spring is installed outside the rubber shock-absorbing ring. To ensure that the filter tube is protected while being shock-absorbing, foam cotton is filled outside the shock-absorbing spring and inside the shock-absorbing frame for shock absorption and protection. This reduces vibration and shaking outside the filter tube, preventing the connection between the filter tube and other parts of the equipment from gradually loosening due to vibration, which could lead to milk leakage, waste of raw materials and contamination, interfere with the normal operation of the ultrafiltration process, and reduce production efficiency.

[0017] 2. This ultrafiltration membrane equipment for milk production features a sealing mechanism. Both the outlet and inlet pipes are externally connected by connecting pipes. These connecting pipes are connected to flange A and flange B around the adapter using connecting bolts. A sealing ring is installed on the outside of the adapter. The adapter, with the sealing ring, is installed into the annular groove inside the connecting pipe, which prevents liquid leakage. This avoids the situation where a poor seal leads to gradual loosening of the connection, resulting in milk leakage. Frequent loosening may also cause wear on the inlet pipe and equipment interface, further increasing the risk of leakage. Attached Figure Description
