Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of filter press devices, specifically a filter press device for squid processing. Background Technology
[0002] Squid is a popular seafood product with tender meat and rich in nutrients such as protein and taurine. It can be eaten fresh or processed into a variety of unique foods. As a cephalopod, squid has a lot of water in its muscle tissue. Fresh squid usually has a water content of more than 80%. This characteristic is the basis for its delicious meat, but it also brings many challenges to subsequent processing.
[0003] In home settings, making dried squid is a common way to process squid. The process of making dried squid at home is relatively simple. Generally, you first remove the internal organs of the fresh squid, wash it, then marinate it simply with salt and other seasonings, and then hang the processed squid in a ventilated place to air dry naturally or expose it to the sun to dry.
[0004] However, due to the high water content of squid, and the fact that some of the water is tightly bound to the muscle fibers, even squid that has been cleaned often takes a long time to air dry naturally, thus extending the drying cycle of dried squid. Utility Model Content
[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a pressure filter device for squid processing to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a squid processing pressure filter device, comprising a pressure filter box, a pressure filter chamber at the top of the pressure filter box, a flow guide cavity inside the pressure filter box, multiple sets of filter holes on the inner wall of the pressure filter chamber, and the two ends of the filter holes respectively connecting the pressure filter chamber and the flow guide cavity, a pressure plate installed on the top of the pressure filter box, multiple sets of needles on the inner wall of the pressure plate, two sets of fixing blocks fixed on the top of the pressure filter box, a pressure rod connected between the two sets of fixing blocks, a handle at the end of the pressure rod, a connecting column fixed on the outer wall of the pressure rod, and a pressure ball installed at the end of the connecting column.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem of excessive moisture in squid before drying after cleaning is solved. After the squid is cleaned, it can be placed in a filter press box, and a pressure plate can be placed on its surface. Then, the pressure ball on the pressure rod is pressed against the top of the pressure plate. By pressing the pressure rod downwards, the pressure rod squeezes the pressure plate downwards. While the pressure plate is squeezing the squid, the needles at the bottom of the pressure plate puncture the surface tissue of the squid, allowing the moisture in the squid to be drained more fully.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the needle is a conical needle, the length of the needle is 5mm, and the density of the needles on the inner wall of the pressure plate is 10 needles / square centimeter.
[0009] Preferably, when the pressure plate squeezes the squid, the conical needles pierce the squid's muscle tissue, thereby releasing the bound water inside the squid cells and improving the squid's dehydration efficiency.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the inner wall of the filter press box is provided with a sliding groove, a connecting block is installed on one side of the pressure plate, and the height between the pressure plate and the bottom wall of the filter press chamber is less than the thickness of the squid.
[0011] Preferably, when a person presses down on the lever, the pressure ball on the base will push the pressure plate downwards and move it.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the bottom inner wall of the flow guiding cavity is inclined, and a drain hole is provided at the end of the flow guiding cavity.
[0013] Preferably, the liquid squeezed from the squid flows into the guide cavity through the filter holes, and the liquid that gathers in the guide cavity flows out of the drain hole along the inclined wall of the guide cavity.
[0014] The present invention is further provided that the inner wall of the pressure plate is provided with a groove, and the groove is configured in a grid shape.
[0015] Preferably, the liquid squeezed from the upper surface of the squid flows along the grooves on the inner wall of the pressure plate to the periphery of the pressure plate, preventing the squeezed liquid from clogging between the squid and the pressure plate.
[0016] The present invention is further configured such that four sets of limiting posts are installed inside the filter press chamber, and limiting holes are provided at the bottom of the pressure plate.
[0017] Preferably, when the squid is placed in the filter press chamber, the operator raises the pressure plate to its highest position and flips it over so that the limiting hole at the bottom of the pressure plate fits onto the limiting post in the filter chamber. When the pressure plate presses down on the squid, the limiting post limits the movement of the pressure plate, so that the pressure plate moves vertically downward and reduces the tilt angle generated when the pressure plate presses the squid.
[0018] The present invention is further configured such that the bottom inner wall of the limiting hole is tapered, and the bottom diameter of the limiting hole is larger than the top diameter of the limiting hole.
[0019] Preferably, when the pressure plate is flipped to a horizontal position, the top wall of the limiting post is flush with the bottom wall of the pressure plate. After the pressure plate is released, the pressure plate descends vertically downwards due to its own weight and is fitted onto the limiting post.
[0020] The present invention is further configured such that two sets of handles are installed on the top of the pressure plate.
[0021] Preferably, after the squid has completed the pressure filtration operation, the operator can remove the pressure plate from the pressure chamber using the handle.
[0022] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages: 1. This utility model solves the problem of excessive moisture in squid before drying after cleaning by setting up a filter press box, a guide cavity, a pressure plate, a needle, a pressure rod, and a pressure ball. After the squid has been cleaned, it can be placed in the filter press box and the pressure plate can be placed on its surface. Then, the pressure ball on the pressure rod is pressed against the top of the pressure plate. By pressing down on the pressure rod, the pressure rod squeezes the pressure plate downward. While the pressure plate is squeezing the squid, the needle at the bottom of the pressure plate punctures the surface tissue of the squid, allowing the moisture in the squid to be drained more fully.
[0023] 2. This utility model solves the problem of uneven squeezing of squid by setting up a sliding groove, connecting block, pressure plate, limiting post and limiting hole. When the squid is placed in the filter chamber, the operator raises the pressure plate to the highest position and flips it over so that the limiting hole at the bottom of the pressure plate fits onto the limiting post in the filter chamber. When the pressure plate squeezes the squid downward, the limiting post limits the movement of the pressure plate, so that the pressure plate moves vertically downward and reduces the tilt angle generated when the pressure plate squeezes the squid.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0027] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 — Figure 6 The system includes a filter press box 1, a filter press chamber 101 at the top of the filter press box 1, a flow guide cavity 103 inside the filter press box 1, multiple sets of filter holes 102 on the inner wall of the filter press chamber 101, and the two ends of the filter holes 102 are respectively connected to the filter press chamber 101 and the flow guide cavity 103. A pressure plate 2 is installed on the top of the filter press box 1, and multiple sets of needles 204 are provided on the inner wall of the pressure plate 2. Two sets of fixing blocks 107 are fixed on the top of the filter press box 1, and a pressure rod 3 is connected between the two sets of fixing blocks 107. A handle 303 is provided at the end of the pressure rod 3, and a connecting post 30 is fixed on the outer wall of the pressure rod 3. 1. A pressure ball 302 is installed at the end of the connecting column 301, which solves the problem that the squid still has a lot of moisture in its body before the squid is dried after cleaning. After the squid is cleaned, it can be placed in the filter press box 1 and the pressure plate 2 is placed on its surface. Then, the pressure ball 302 on the pressure rod 3 is pressed against the top of the pressure plate 2. The personnel press the pressure rod 3 downward, so that the pressure rod 3 squeezes the pressure plate 2 downward. While the pressure plate 2 squeezes the squid, the needle 204 at the bottom of the pressure plate 2 punctures the surface tissue of the squid, so that the water in the squid is drained more fully.
[0029] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 The needle 204 is a conical needle with a length of 5 mm. The density of the needles 204 on the inner wall of the pressure plate 2 is 10 needles / square centimeter. When the pressure plate 2 squeezes the squid, the conical needles 204 will puncture the squid muscle tissue, thereby releasing the bound water inside the squid cells and improving the dehydration efficiency of the squid.
[0030] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 and Figure 6 The inner wall of the filter press box 1 is provided with a sliding groove 106, and a connecting block 205 is installed on one side of the pressure plate 2. The height between the pressure plate 2 and the bottom wall of the filter press chamber 101 is less than the thickness of the squid. When the person presses down the pressure rod 3, the pressure ball 302 on the pressure root 3 will squeeze the pressure plate 2 downward and move it.
[0031] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4The bottom inner wall of the guide cavity 103 is inclined, and the end of the guide cavity 103 is provided with a drain hole 104. The liquid squeezed out of the squid flows into the guide cavity 103 through the filter hole 102. The liquid that gathers in the guide cavity 103 flows out of the drain hole 104 along the inclined wall of the guide cavity 103.
[0032] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 The inner wall of the pressure plate 2 is provided with a groove 203, and the groove 203 is set in a grid shape. The liquid squeezed out from the upper surface of the squid flows along the groove 203 on the inner wall of the pressure plate 2 to the periphery of the pressure plate 2, preventing the squeezed liquid from blocking the squid and the pressure plate 2.
[0033] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 The filter press chamber 101 is equipped with four sets of limiting posts 105. The bottom of the pressure plate 2 is provided with limiting holes 202. When the squid is placed in the filter press chamber 101, the personnel raise the pressure plate 2 to the highest position and flip it over so that the limiting holes 202 at the bottom of the pressure plate 2 fit onto the limiting posts 105 in the filter chamber 101. When the pressure plate 2 squeezes the squid downward, the limiting posts 105 limit the movement of the pressure plate 2, so that the pressure plate 2 moves vertically downward, reducing the tilt angle generated when the pressure plate 2 squeezes the squid.
[0034] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 The bottom inner wall of the limiting hole 202 is set as conical, and the bottom diameter of the limiting hole 202 is larger than the top diameter of the limiting hole 202. When the pressure plate 2 is flipped to the horizontal state, the top wall of the limiting post 105 is flush with the bottom wall of the pressure plate 2. After the pressure plate 2 is released, the pressure plate 2 descends vertically downward due to its own weight and is fitted onto the limiting post 105.
[0035] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 Two sets of handles 201 are installed on the top of the pressure plate 2. After the squid has completed the pressure filtration operation, the personnel can remove the pressure plate 2 from the pressure filtration chamber 101 through the handles 201.
[0036] In practical operation, the following steps are taken: First, the cleaned squid is laid flat in the filter chamber 101 inside the filter press box 1. Then, the pressure plate 2 is raised, so that the connecting block 205 on one side of the pressure plate 2 slides to the top position of the slide groove 106. Then, the pressure plate 2 is flipped over. When the pressure plate 2 is flipped to a horizontal state, the top wall of the limiting column 105 is flush with the bottom wall of the pressure plate 2. Then, the pressure plate 2 is released, and the pressure plate 2 descends vertically due to its own weight. During the descent of the pressure plate 2, the limiting hole 202 at the bottom of the pressure plate 2 is fitted onto the limiting column 105 until the pressure plate 2 presses onto the squid. Then, the operator holds the handle 303 and flips the pressure rod 3 so that the pressure ball 302 on the outer wall of the pressure rod 3 contacts the top wall of the pressure plate 2. Finally, the operator holds the handle 303 with both hands and presses down so that the pressure plate 2 performs filter pressing on the squid. When the pressure plate 2 presses the squid vertically downwards, the needles 204 on the wall of the pressure plate 2 puncture the skin and flesh of the squid. The pressure plate 2 and the bottom wall of the filter chamber 101 work together to press the squid, causing the water in the squid to be squeezed out. The liquid squeezed out from the upper surface of the squid flows along the grooves 203 on the inner wall of the pressure plate 2 to the surrounding area of the pressure plate 2. The liquid filtered out by the squid flows into the guide cavity 103 inside the filter box 1 through the filter holes 102 on the inner wall of the filter chamber 101. The liquid that gathers in the guide cavity 103 flows along the inclined wall of the guide cavity 103 towards the drain hole 104. Finally, the liquid is discharged from the drain hole 104. After the squid has completed the pressure filtration process, the operator lifts the pressure plate 2 from inside the filter chamber 101 using the handle 201 at the top of the pressure plate 2 until the connecting block 205 on one side of the pressure plate 2 moves to the top of the inner wall of the chute 106. Then the pressure plate 2 is flipped over, and the operator can take the filtered squid out of the filter box 1.
