Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal fat decolorization technology, specifically to an animal fat decolorization device. Background Technology

[0002] Animal fats are an important raw material in food processing, chemical production, and feed manufacturing. Their quality directly affects the quality and market acceptance of the final product. During the natural extraction or preliminary processing of animal fats, pigments, odor substances, and solid particulate impurities inevitably remain. These components not only affect the appearance and color of the fats but may also reduce their stability and safety. Therefore, decolorization is an indispensable and crucial step in the fat refining process. With the increasing demands for raw material purity in the food industry and the growing popularity of environmentally friendly production concepts, the industry has placed higher demands on the efficiency, purification effect, and ease of operation of decolorization equipment. Currently, commonly used animal fat decolorization equipment in the industry mainly combines filtration and adsorption. The decolorization process is as follows: the animal fat to be treated enters the decolorization equipment through the feeding structure. It first undergoes preliminary filtration through a filter screen to remove large particulate impurities. Then, the fat flows through an adsorption zone filled with adsorbents, such as activated carbon or activated clay, where the porous structure of the adsorbents adsorbs pigments and odor molecules. Finally, it undergoes secondary filtration to remove fine impurities such as adsorbent powder. The decolorized fat is then collected and stored. Existing decolorization devices have some problems. The flow of fat within the device is mostly natural, which can easily lead to local accumulation, resulting in insufficient contact between the adsorbent and the fat, incomplete removal of pigments and odors, and unstable decolorization effect. Therefore, we propose an animal fat decolorization device. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] Please see Figure 1-5 This embodiment provides a technical solution: an animal fat decolorization device, including a shell 1, a door hinged to the front side wall of the shell 1, a control switch group 10 installed on the right side of the shell 1, the input end of the control switch group 10 being electrically connected to an external power source, an inlet pipe 7 fixedly connected to the left side wall of the shell 1, and an oil box 11 fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the shell 1, including a decolorization component 2. Decolorization component 2 includes a main pipe 21, a funnel 22, a secondary pipe 23, a filter screen 24, a filter plate 25, a collection pipe 26, and a piston 27. The main pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the upper interior of the outer casing 1. The right end of the inlet pipe 7 is connected to the main pipe 21 and is inclined. The funnel 22 is fixedly connected to the lower interior of the main pipe 21. The funnel 22 is detachably connected to the lower interior of the main pipe 21 by bolts. The lower end of the funnel 22 has evenly distributed holes. The collection pipe 26 is fixedly connected to the inner interior of the outer casing 1. At the lower end, the main pipe 21, the secondary pipe 23, and the collection pipe 26 are all fixedly connected to the inside of the outer casing 1 by stainless steel mounting rods. The collection pipe 26 is located on the upper side of the oil box 11. The secondary pipe 23 is slidably connected to the upper end of the collection pipe 26. A filter plate 25 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the secondary pipe 23. A filter screen 24 is installed at the upper end of the inner side of the secondary pipe 23. The filter screen 24 is detachably connected to the upper end of the inner side of the secondary pipe 23 by bolts. The cavity between the filter plate 25 and the filter screen 24 is filled with activated carbon. The upper end of the secondary pipe 23... Used in conjunction with the lower end of the main pipe 21, the lower end of the main pipe 21 has a sealing groove with a rubber sealing strip inside. The upper end of the secondary pipe 23 can enter the sealing groove and make close contact with the rubber sealing strip. First, the animal fat is injected into the main pipe 21 through the inlet pipe 7. The fat flows downward under the action of gravity. When it passes through the funnel 22, it is dispersed through the uniform holes at the lower end of the funnel 22 to form a fine stream for diversion and separation of particulate oil residue inside the fat. After the fat enters the secondary pipe 23, it first passes through the filter screen 24 for preliminary filtration to remove larger particulate impurities. Then, the fat flows into the activated carbon layer between the filter screen 24 and the filter plate 25. The activated carbon adsorbs pigments and odor substances in the fat to achieve decolorization. The decolorized fat continues to pass downward through the filter plate 25 for final filtration to ensure the cleanliness of the fat. Thus, the fat finally collected is liquid fat without particulate residue. The decolorized fat flows out from the lower end of the secondary pipe 23 and enters the collection pipe 26, and finally drips into the oil box 11 for collection. The oil box 11 can be collected by workers. Piston 27 is slidably connected to the inside of main pipe 21. Piston 27 is a rubber piston, and its outer arc surface is tightly fitted with the inner arc surface of main pipe 21. Decolorizing assembly 2 also includes a round rod 28, which is slidably connected to the upper side wall of main pipe 21. The lower side of round rod 28 is fixedly connected to the upper side of piston 27. Decolorizing assembly 2 also includes a drive rod 29, which is rotatably connected to the upper end of round rod 28. Mounting bracket 12 is fixedly connected to the upper side of main pipe 21. Connecting rod 3 is rotatably connected to the front side of mounting bracket 12. The upper end of connecting rod 3 is rotatably connected to the upper end of drive rod 29 via a pin. Connecting rod 3 and mounting bracket 12 are also connected to each other. The front sides of 2 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft. The upper end of the mounting bracket 12 is equipped with a motor 4. The output shaft of the motor 4 is fixedly connected to the center of the rear end face of the rotating shaft. The input end of the motor 4 is electrically connected to the output end of the control switch group 10. The worker controls the operation of the motor 4 through the control switch group 10. The output shaft of the motor 4 drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 3 to rotate. During the rotation of the connecting rod 3, the piston 27 is pushed up and down in the main pipe 21 through the drive rod 29 and the round rod 28. When the piston 27 moves downward, it applies pressure to the grease in the main pipe 21, so that the grease flows into the secondary pipe 23 through the funnel 22 at a faster rate. A drive frame 5 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the outer arc surface of the secondary pipe 23. Symmetrically distributed mounting plates 8 are fixedly connected to the rear side wall of the outer casing 1. A screw 6 is rotatably connected between the two mounting plates 8. The screw 6 is threadedly connected to the rear end of the drive frame 5. Corrugated pipes are provided between the upper and lower sides of the rear end of the drive frame 5 and the two mounting plates 8. The screw 6 is located inside the corrugated pipes, which provide external protection for the screw 6, ensuring its sealing and lubrication. The system also includes a motor 9, which is mounted on the upper side of the upper mounting plate 8. The output shaft of the motor 9 is fixedly connected to the center of the upper end face of the screw 6. The input end of the motor 9 is electrically connected to the output end of the control switch group 10. When the activated carbon is saturated or needs to be replaced, the motor 9 is started through the control switch group 10. The motor 9 drives the screw 6 to rotate, causing the drive frame... 5. Move the secondary pipe 23 downwards, separating it from the main pipe 21. Then, open the door of the outer casing 1 and manually clean the particulate oil residue isolated on the filter screen 24. Then, unscrew the bolts connecting the filter screen 24 to remove the filter screen 24. Manually remove the old activated carbon, put the new activated carbon into the secondary pipe 23, and reinstall the filter screen 24. After that, the funnel 22 can be disassembled by unscrewing the bolts connecting it to the main pipe 21 to clean the initially separated oil residue. Then, install the funnel 22 into the main pipe 21, control the motor 9 to reverse, drive the screw 6 to rotate, and make the drive frame 5 move the secondary pipe 23 upwards until the upper end of the secondary pipe 23 is embedded in the sealing groove at the lower end of the main pipe 21, making tight contact with the rubber sealing strip to form a sealed connection, and then proceed with the subsequent decolorization of animal fats.

[0016] The working principle of the animal fat decolorization device provided by this utility model is as follows: First, the animal fat is injected into the main pipe 21 through the inlet pipe 7. Under the action of gravity, the fat flows downward. When it passes through the funnel 22, it is dispersed through the uniform holes at the lower end of the funnel 22 to form a fine stream, which is used for diversion and separation of particulate oil residue inside the fat, preparing for the subsequent decolorization process. At the same time, the worker controls the motor 4 to operate through the control switch group 10. The output shaft of the motor 4 drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 3 to rotate. During the rotation of the connecting rod 3, the drive rod 29 and the circular... Rod 28 pushes piston 27 to slide up and down within main pipe 21. When piston 27 moves downward, it applies pressure to the grease within main pipe 21, causing the grease to flow faster through funnel 22 into secondary pipe 23. After entering secondary pipe 23, the grease first undergoes preliminary filtration through filter screen 24 to remove larger particulate impurities. Subsequently, the grease flows into the activated carbon layer between filter screen 24 and filter plate 25. The activated carbon adsorbs pigments and odor substances in the grease, achieving decolorization. The decolorized grease continues to flow downward through filter plate 25 for final filtration, ensuring grease cleanliness and thus... The collected grease is a liquid grease without particulate residue. The decolorized grease flows out from the lower end of the secondary pipe 23, enters the collection pipe 26, and finally drips into the oil box 11 for collection. The oil box 11 can be collected by workers. When the activated carbon is saturated or needs to be replaced, the motor 9 is started by the control switch group 10. The motor 9 drives the screw 6 to rotate, causing the drive frame 5 to move the secondary pipe 23 downward, separating it from the main pipe 21. Then, the door of the outer casing 1 can be opened to manually clean the particulate residue isolated on the filter screen 24. Then, the bolts connecting the filter screen 24 are unscrewed to disassemble the filter. After manually removing the old activated carbon from the filter screen 24 and adding new activated carbon to the secondary pipe 23, the filter screen 24 is reinstalled. Then, the funnel 22 can be disassembled by unscrewing the bolts connecting it to the main pipe 21 to clean up the initially separated oil residue. After that, the funnel 22 is installed inside the main pipe 21, and the motor 9 is reversed to drive the screw 6 to rotate, causing the drive frame 5 to move the secondary pipe 23 upward until the upper end of the secondary pipe 23 is embedded in the sealing groove at the lower end of the main pipe 21 and makes tight contact with the rubber sealing strip to form a sealed connection for subsequent decolorization of animal fats.

[0017] It is worth noting that the motor 4 disclosed in the above embodiments can be a YS series three-phase asynchronous motor, the motor 9 can be a SEW DR series AC motor, and the control switch group 10 is provided with control buttons that correspond one-to-one with the motor 4 and the motor 9 and are used to control their switching.

[0018] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
