Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shower gel production technology, specifically to a defoaming device for shower gel production. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of shower gel, a large amount of foam is easily generated during the mixing and conveying of raw materials. This foam can affect the uniformity of the shower gel's texture, filling accuracy, and subsequent processing steps. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the foam through a defoaming device. Currently, the defoaming technologies used in shower gel production are mainly divided into two categories: one is the static defoaming method, in which the shower gel containing foam is introduced into a static tank, where the foam naturally breaks down due to its own buoyancy, and subsequent processing is carried out after the foam dissipates; the other is the use of mechanical defoaming devices, which usually break the foam by high-speed stirring with a stirring paddle, or use a spray structure to disperse the shower gel and then achieve defoaming through gravity. Some devices also use a single filter to intercept and break up the foam.

[0003] However, existing defoaming technologies have significant shortcomings. When using static defoaming, the natural breakdown of foam is slow and takes a long time, resulting in low overall production efficiency and making it difficult to meet the demands of continuous shower gel production. Simultaneously, some foam may adhere to the tank walls during static settling, failing to completely eliminate it and affecting the defoaming effect. In traditional mechanical defoaming devices, if an agitator is used, the high-speed rotating agitator can violently collide with the shower gel, generating new foam and increasing the defoaming burden. If a spray structure is used, the material easily comes into contact with air during its descent, forming new foam, and the spray dispersion effect is limited, only removing larger foams while failing to eliminate smaller ones. Furthermore, most existing devices lack a dedicated feeding defoaming structure. During the feeding stage, the material is prone to generating new foam due to impact and unstable flow rate, further increasing the pressure on subsequent defoaming processes, resulting in low overall defoaming efficiency and poor performance, failing to meet the dual requirements of shower gel production for defoaming quality and efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The problem this invention aims to solve is to provide a defoaming device for shower gel production. This invention features a rotary feeding mechanism that drives a gear and a rotating drum to rotate via a drive assembly. The tilted infusion pipe smoothly guides the shower gel to the inner wall of the rotating drum. This not only avoids the shower gel directly impacting and generating new foam, but also accelerates the flow rate of the shower gel by utilizing the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the drum, thus accelerating the feeding process. At the same time, the centrifugal force can also cause existing foam to break down, completing the initial defoaming during the feeding stage, reducing the pressure on subsequent defoaming processes, and improving overall processing efficiency.

[0005] The technical solution provided by this utility model to solve the above problems is as follows: a defoaming device for producing shower gel, including a mounting base, a feeding hopper, a top cover, a diverter, and a baffle tube. The feeding hopper is installed at the bottom of the mounting base, the top cover is installed at the top of the feeding hopper, the diverter is installed at the bottom of the feeding hopper, and the baffle tube is fixed to the bottom of the diverter by bolts. It also includes a rotating feeding mechanism and a foam filtering mechanism. The rotating feeding mechanism is used to accelerate the feeding of shower gel and can defoam the shower gel during the feeding process. The foam filtering mechanism is used to further defoam the shower gel.

[0006] More preferably, the rotary feeding mechanism includes a drive assembly, a driven gear, a rotating drum, a first bearing, a second bearing, and an infusion pipe. The drive assembly is mounted on a mounting base, the driven gear is rotatably connected to the top cover, the rotating drum is mounted on the top cover via the first bearing, and the infusion pipe is mounted on the upper part of the rotating drum via the second bearing. The infusion pipe is inclined.

[0007] More preferably, the drive assembly consists of a motor and gears, with the gears meshing with the gears of the drive assembly.

[0008] More preferably, the outside of the rotating drum is toothed and meshes with the driven gear.

[0009] More preferably, the filter mechanism includes a mounting frame, filter screens, and rubber rings. The mounting frame is fixed to the bottom of the baffle tube by bolts. The mounting frame is composed of two semi-cylindrical shells. Several filter screens are snapped into the mounting frame, and the rubber rings are snapped into the top of the mounting frame.

[0010] More preferably, the filter screen is angled.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: This utility model is equipped with a rotary feeding mechanism, which drives the gear and the rotating drum to rotate through the drive component. With the help of the inclined infusion pipe, the shower gel is smoothly guided to the inner wall of the rotating drum. This can not only avoid the shower gel directly impacting and generating new foam, but also accelerate the flow rate of the shower gel by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the rotating drum, thereby accelerating the feeding. At the same time, the centrifugal force can also cause the existing foam to break, completing the initial defoaming in the feeding stage, reducing the pressure of the subsequent defoaming process, and improving the overall processing efficiency.

[0012] The distributor has an internal filter mesh structure that can disperse the shower gel after initial defoaming into multiple fine streams, further breaking down the foam. At the same time, it can filter out any impurities that may be present in the shower gel, improving its purity and providing a better material base for the subsequent defoaming process, thus ensuring the quality of the final product.

[0013] The baffle tube features a bend design, which extends the flow path and time of the shower gel, causing it to continuously change its flow direction within the tube. During this process, the foam will further break down due to collisions with the tube wall and mutual compression, achieving defoaming again and gradually improving the defoaming effect to ensure more thorough foam removal.

[0014] The installation frame of the foam filtering mechanism has several inclined filter screens. The inclined structure increases the contact area between the filter screen and the shower gel, which can deeply defoam the shower gel passing through the baffle tube, intercept and break up tiny bubbles, and filter out residual impurities. In addition, the rubber ring at the top of the installation frame can improve the sealing between the filter screen and the baffle tube, prevent shower gel leakage, and ensure a clean working environment and high material utilization rate.

[0015] The mounting frame of the filter mechanism is composed of two semi-cylindrical shells, which are fixed to the bottom of the baffle tube by bolts. This detachable structure makes it easy to disassemble, clean or replace the filter screen later, reducing maintenance difficulty and cost. At the same time, the connection between the components is stable and the whole device is easy to operate. It is suitable for continuous defoaming operations in shower gel production, improving the practicality and durability of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Example: As shown in the attached figure, a defoaming device for producing shower gel includes a mounting base 1, a feed hopper 11, a top cover 2, a diverter 3, and a baffle tube 4. The feed hopper 11 is installed at the bottom of the mounting base 1, the top cover 2 is installed at the top of the feed hopper 11, the diverter 3 is installed at the bottom of the feed hopper 11, and the inside of the diverter 3 is a filter screen. The baffle tube 4 is fixed to the bottom of the diverter 3 by bolts. The baffle tube 4 is bent, which can prolong the flow time of the shower gel and defoam the shower gel during the flow. It also includes a rotary feeding mechanism 5 and a foam filtering mechanism 6. The rotary feeding mechanism 5 is used to accelerate the feeding of shower gel and can defoam the shower gel during the feeding process. The foam filtering mechanism 6 is used to further defoam the shower gel.

[0027] In this embodiment, specifically, the rotary feeding mechanism 5 includes a drive assembly 51, a driven gear 52, a rotating drum 53, a first bearing 54, a second bearing 55, and an infusion pipe 56. The drive assembly 51 is mounted on the mounting base 1, and the driven gear 52 is rotatably connected to the top cover 2. The drive assembly 51 consists of a motor and gears, and the driven gear 52 meshes with the gears of the drive assembly 51. The rotating drum 53 is mounted on the top cover 2 via the first bearing 54, and the outer surface of the rotating drum 53 is toothed and meshes with the driven gear 52. The infusion pipe 56 is mounted on the upper part of the rotating drum 53 via the second bearing 55. The infusion pipe 56 is inclined and can guide the shower gel to the inner wall of the rotating drum 53, thereby guiding the shower gel and further defoaming it. The rotation of the rotating drum 53 can accelerate the flow rate of the shower gel. Furthermore, the filtration mechanism 6 includes a mounting frame 61, a filter screen 62, and a rubber ring 63. The mounting frame 61 is fixed to the bottom of the baffle tube 4 by bolts. The mounting frame 61 is composed of two semi-cylindrical shells. Several filter screens 62 are snapped into the mounting frame 61. The filter screens 62 are inclined to further defoam the shower gel. The rubber ring 63 is snapped into the top of the mounting frame 61. The rubber ring 63 can improve the sealing between the mounting frame 61 and the baffle tube 4.

[0028] When using the defoaming device produced by this shower gel, first start the drive component 51 of the rotary feeding mechanism 5. Since the drive component 51 is composed of a motor and gears and is installed on the mounting base 1, the motor will drive its own gears to rotate. Since the driven gear 52 is rotatably connected to the top cover 2 and meshes with the gears of the drive component 51, the gears of the drive component 51 will drive the driven gear 52 to rotate synchronously. Since the rotating drum 53 is mounted on the top cover 2 via the first bearing 54, and the outside of the rotating drum 53 is toothed and meshes with the driven gear 52, when the driven gear 52 rotates, it will drive the rotating drum 53 to rotate stably under the action of the first bearing 54. At this time, the shower gel to be defoamed is delivered into the rotating drum 53 through the infusion pipe 56. The infusion pipe 56 is mounted on the upper part of the rotating drum 53 via the second bearing 55 and is set at an inclination. Therefore, the infusion pipe 56 will not affect the rotation of the rotating drum 53, and can smoothly guide the shower gel to the inner wall of the rotating drum 53, avoiding the shower gel directly impacting and generating new foam. At the same time, the rotation of the rotating drum 53 will generate centrifugal force, which will accelerate the flow speed of the shower gel in the rotating drum 53, thereby achieving the effect of accelerating feeding. The centrifugal force can also cause the existing foam in the shower gel to break, completing the initial defoaming during the feeding process and reducing the subsequent defoaming pressure.

[0029] After initial defoaming, the shower gel flows from the rotating drum 53 into the distributor 3. The distributor 3 has a filter mesh inside, which disperses the shower gel into multiple fine streams, further breaking up the foam. After being processed by the distributor 3, the shower gel enters the baffle tube 4. The baffle tube 4 is fixed to the bottom of the distributor 3 by bolts and is bent. This structure can extend the flow path and flow time of the shower gel, allowing the shower gel to continuously change its flow direction within the baffle tube 4. During this process, the foam will be further broken up due to collision with the tube wall and mutual compression, achieving secondary defoaming and ensuring that the defoaming effect is gradually improved.

[0030] Finally, the shower gel processed by the baffle tube 4 flows into the foam filtering mechanism 6. The mounting frame 61 of the foam filtering mechanism 6 is fixed to the bottom of the baffle tube 4 by bolts, and a rubber ring 63 is snapped into the top of the mounting frame 61. The rubber ring 63 can fill the gap between the mounting frame 61 and the baffle tube 4, improve the sealing of the connection between the two, and prevent shower gel leakage. The mounting frame 61 is composed of two semi-cylindrical shells, and several inclined filter screens 62 are snapped into the inside. The inclined filter screens 62 increase the contact area with the shower gel. When the shower gel flows through the filter screens 62, the filter screens 62 will filter and divert the shower gel. It can not only filter residual impurities, but also intercept and break up the tiny bubbles in the shower gel, achieving the final deep defoaming, ensuring that the foam content in the output shower gel is extremely low, meeting the production process requirements. The entire process, through the coordinated action of the rotary feeding mechanism 5, the diverter 3, the baffle tube 4, and the foam filtering mechanism 6, combines accelerated feeding of shower gel with multi-stage defoaming, which not only improves production efficiency but also ensures defoaming quality. Furthermore, the components are stably connected and easy to operate, making it suitable for continuous defoaming operations in shower gel production.

This utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and variations in its specific structure are permitted. All changes made within the scope of the independent claims of this utility model are also within the scope of protection of this utility model.
