Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit wine production technology, and in particular to a filtration device for fermented fruit wine production. Background Technology

[0002] Fruit wine refers to the fruit juice that is made by crushing and pressing the fruit to extract the juice, and then fermenting and aging the juice with alcohol. There are many types of fruit wine, with grape wine being the most common. According to different brewing methods, it can be divided into several types such as fermented fruit wine, distilled fruit wine, and blended fruit wine.

[0003] After fermentation, fruit wine needs to be filtered to remove impurities and ensure the quality of the wine in subsequent production processes. Currently, most filtration is done using filter tanks, which contain modular filter cartridges. When the filter cartridges need to be replaced after prolonged use, the tank must be opened. Currently, the opening and closing of the tank is installed via flanges. When removing the filter cartridges, the flanges must be removed to replace them. However, the flanges are usually tightly secured, making flange removal troublesome. Replacing the filter cartridges inside the filtration device requires a lot of time, affecting replacement efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this patent application is how to provide a filtration device for fermented fruit wine production with good filtration effect, simple structure and easy filter element replacement.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A filtration device for fermented fruit wine production includes a base and a tank body that are fitted together. The tank body is open at the lower end and has an inlet pipe at the upper end. The base has an outlet pipe in the middle. The portion of the outlet pipe inside the tank body has uniformly distributed micropores, and a filter element is installed on the outer side of the outlet pipe. The base and the tank body are connected by a quick-release assembly. The quick-release assembly includes a turntable rotatably mounted below the base. The turntable has gear teeth on its side, which mesh with a worm gear. The worm gear is connected to the base via a hanger, and one side of the worm gear is connected to a handwheel. The tank body has a flange at the bottom, and pins are uniformly arranged downwards on the flange. The base has clearance holes for the pins to pass through. The turntable has a corresponding arc-shaped groove. The side wall of the pin located on the turntable has an annular groove. The inner side wall of the arc-shaped groove has a strip corresponding to the annular groove, and the width of the strip is gradually changing.

[0007] During use, the product enters the tank through the inlet pipe via an external pump body. After filtration, it exits through the outlet pipe via micropores, completing the filtration of the fruit wine. When the filter element needs replacement or the interior needs cleaning, the tank and base can be disassembled and reassembled using a quick-release assembly. To connect the tank and base, insert the tank's pin into the clearance hole, which then enters the arc-shaped groove. At this point, the base and the side wall of the tank are in contact. Turning the handwheel drives the worm gear to engage the gear teeth, which in turn drives the turntable to rotate. The insert in the arc-shaped groove is then inserted into the annular groove. As the turntable rotates, the width of the insert changes, making contact with the annular groove and providing downward pressure, thus locking the tank and base. For disassembly, flipping the handwheel disengages the insert from the annular groove, allowing the tank to be removed. Compared to the current method of removing and installing flange nuts at once, this solution allows for quick disassembly and assembly, improving efficiency and maintaining the normal operation of the filtration equipment.

[0008] Preferably, the base is further provided with a mounting bracket, one end of the worm gear is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket, the mounting bracket is provided with a handwheel locking mechanism, the handwheel locking mechanism includes a slide rod that is vertically slidably mounted on the mounting bracket, the lower end of the slide rod is provided with an arc-shaped plate, the arc-shaped plate is provided with teeth, and the worm gear is coaxially fixed with a gear corresponding to the position of the arc-shaped plate.

[0009] In this way, when in use, lifting the slide bar allows the handwheel to drive the worm gear to rotate. After the action is completed, lowering the slide bar locks the handwheel. Although the worm gear mechanism can achieve self-locking, the handwheel locking mechanism here is suitable for preventing accidental handwheel contact and resulting reverse rotation during production, thus avoiding leakage and ensuring production safety.

[0010] Preferably, the base is provided with a downward-facing support leg, and the turntable is provided with a clearance groove at a corresponding position.

[0011] In this way, while providing support, it will not interfere with the rotation of the turntable during assembly and disassembly.

[0012] Preferably, the outer side of the top of the liquid outlet pipe is provided with an external thread, and a pressure block is rotatably engaged with the external thread, with the bottom of the pressure block pressed against the filter element.

[0013] This ensures stable installation of the filter element within the tank, preventing it from shaking inside and causing leakage during filtration. It guarantees filtration efficiency while allowing for quick assembly and disassembly.

[0014] Preferably, a pressure relief pipe is provided on the top of the liquid outlet tank, and a pressure relief valve and a barometer are provided on the pressure relief pipe.

[0015] This allows for real-time monitoring and control of internal pressure during the filtration process, ensuring the normal and stable operation of the filter.

[0016] In summary, this solution has the advantages of good filtration effect, simple structure, and easy filter element replacement. Attached Figure Description

[0025] like Figure 1-7As shown, a filtration device for fermented fruit wine production includes a base 1 and a tank 11 that are fitted together. The tank is open at the lower end and has an inlet pipe 12 at the upper end. The base has an outlet pipe 13 in the middle. The portion of the outlet pipe inside the tank is uniformly provided with micropores, and a filter element 14 is installed on the outside of the outlet pipe. The base and the tank are connected by a quick-release assembly, which includes a turntable 15 rotatably mounted below the base. The turntable has gear teeth 16 on its side, which mesh with a worm gear 17. The worm gear is connected to the base via a hanger 18, and one side of the worm gear is connected to a handwheel 19. The tank has a flange 2 at the bottom, and pins 21 are uniformly arranged downwards on the flange. The base has clearance holes 22 for the pins to pass through. The turntable has a corresponding arc-shaped groove 23. The side wall of the pin located on the turntable has an annular groove 24, and the inner side wall of the arc-shaped groove has a strip 25 corresponding to the annular groove. The width of the strip is gradually changed.

[0026] During use, the product enters the tank through the inlet pipe via an external pump body. After filtration, it exits through the outlet pipe via micropores, completing the filtration of the fruit wine. When the filter element needs replacement or the interior needs cleaning, the tank and base can be disassembled and reassembled using a quick-release assembly. To connect the tank and base, insert the tank's pin into the clearance hole, which then enters the arc-shaped groove. At this point, the base and the side wall of the tank are in contact. Turning the handwheel drives the worm gear to engage the gear teeth, which in turn drives the turntable to rotate. The insert in the arc-shaped groove is then inserted into the annular groove. As the turntable rotates, the width of the insert changes, making contact with the annular groove and providing downward pressure, thus locking the tank and base. For disassembly, flipping the handwheel disengages the insert from the annular groove, allowing the tank to be removed. Compared to the current method of removing and installing flange nuts at once, this solution allows for quick disassembly and assembly, improving efficiency and maintaining the normal operation of the filtration equipment.

[0027] Specifically, the base is provided with an mounting platform corresponding to the filter element to ensure the stable placement of the filter element, and the base is provided with a boss corresponding to the side wall of the tank, on which a sealing ring is placed to ensure the sealing of the tank and the base.

[0028] In implementation, the base is also equipped with a mounting bracket 26. One end of the worm gear is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is equipped with a handwheel locking mechanism, which includes a slide rod 27 vertically slidably mounted on the mounting bracket. An arc-shaped plate 28 is provided at the lower end of the slide rod, and a toothed plate 29 is provided on the arc-shaped plate. A gear 3 is coaxially fixed to the worm gear corresponding to the position of the arc-shaped plate. In this way, during use, lifting the slide rod allows the handwheel to drive the worm gear to rotate. After the action is completed, lowering the slide rod locks the handwheel. Although the worm gear mechanism can achieve self-locking, this handwheel locking mechanism is suitable for preventing accidental handwheel activation during production, which could lead to reverse rotation and leakage, thus ensuring production safety.

[0029] In practice, the base is provided with a downward-facing support leg 31, and the turntable has a corresponding clearance groove 32. This ensures support without interfering with the rotation of the turntable during assembly and disassembly.

[0030] In practice, the outer edge of the top of the outlet pipe is provided with an external thread, which is rotatably engaged with a pressure block 33. The bottom of the pressure block is pressed against the filter element. This ensures stable installation of the filter element within the tank, preventing it from shaking internally and causing leakage during filtration. This guarantees the filtration effect while allowing for quick assembly and disassembly.

[0031] In practice, a pressure relief pipe 34 is installed at the top of the liquid outlet tank, and a pressure relief valve 35 and a barometer 36 are installed on the pressure relief pipe. This allows for real-time monitoring and control of the internal pressure during the filtration process, ensuring the normal and stable operation of the filtration system.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
