Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage production technology, specifically to a filling device for fruit juice processing. Background Technology

[0002] Fruit juice beverages refer to drinks made from fruit or concentrated fruit juice as a base, with the addition of water, sugar, food additives, etc., and their fruit juice content must reach more than 10% as stipulated by national standards. Based on differences in processing methods and ingredients, they are mainly divided into fruit juice beverages, fruit-flavored beverages, and special types; among them, fruit juice beverages are further divided into beverages containing fruit pieces and pure juice beverages.

[0003] Currently, existing fruit juice beverages require bottling after processing. Related technologies, such as the patent with publication number CN208762124U, utilize a fruit pulp feed pipe, a first solenoid valve, and a weighing sensor to achieve quantitative filling of fruit pulp, ensuring the content of each bottle of juice meets standards. However, current fruit juice beverage bottling also includes the bottling of pure juice-based beverages. A common method is to add a filter screen to the output end structure of the bottling line to prevent solids such as fruit pulp from mixing in. However, existing devices only filter the raw fruit juice. During continuous production, fruit pulp and solids in the juice easily clog the filter screen, affecting filtration and bottling efficiency. Therefore, in actual operation, the filter screen needs to be replaced periodically or regularly, increasing labor costs and hindering automated production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of the embodiments of this utility model and to briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be used to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a filling equipment for fruit juice processing, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing devices only have the function of filtering the original fruit juice. During continuous production, the pulp and solid matter in the fruit juice are easy to clog the filter screen, which easily affects the filtration efficiency. Therefore, in actual operation, the filter screen needs to be replaced every once in a while or periodically, which not only increases labor costs, but also hinders the automated production of the equipment.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a filling device for fruit juice processing, comprising a filling box, the inner cavity of which is divided into a feeding chamber and a transfer chamber by an inner partition, the feeding chamber being located on one side and below the transfer chamber, a filter window and a filter screen plate detachably installed inside the filter window being provided on the flat section at the bottom of the inner partition, a hollow cleaning plate being suspended below the inner cavity of the transfer chamber and located directly above the filter screen plate, a plurality of scattering nozzles being distributed at the bottom of the hollow cleaning plate, and a liquid conveying assembly for inputting pure fruit juice into the hollow cleaning plate being provided at the top of the filling box; The top side of the filling box has a fruit juice inlet pipe connected to the feeding hopper, the top side of the filling box has a discharge pipe connected to the transfer hopper, and the bottom of the filling box is also provided with a discharge pipe connected to the lowest point of the feeding hopper.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the juice processing and filling equipment described in this utility model, an electromagnetic flow meter is further provided at the output end of the discharge pipe, and an electromagnetic valve is further provided at the output end of the discharge pipe.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the juice processing and filling equipment described in this utility model, the bottom inner side of the feed hopper also has a guide plate corresponding to the input end of the discharge pipe.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the juice processing filling equipment described in this utility model, the liquid delivery component includes a liquid storage tank fixed to the top of the filling box, a liquid guide pipe with one end connected to the liquid storage tank and the other end connected to the hollow cleaning plate, and a liquid pump installed on the liquid guide pipe.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the juice processing and filling equipment described in this utility model, the liquid storage tank also has a liquid inlet pipe connected to the transfer chamber on one side, and a liquid pump is installed on the liquid inlet pipe.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the juice processing filling equipment described in this utility model, the filling box is further provided with an inspection and replacement port and a sealing door corresponding to the inspection and replacement port, and the sealing door has an observation window.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the juice processing and filling equipment described in this utility model, the top of the hollow cleaning plate is further provided with multiple fixed connecting rods that are fixedly suspended on the top of the inner side of the filling box.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the juice processing filling equipment described in this utility model, the top of the filling tank and the storage tank are also equipped with a level gauge corresponding to the transfer compartment.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this juice processing filling equipment, the juice concentrate is introduced into the feeding hopper through the juice inlet pipe. After the liquid level rises, it is filtered through a filter screen and the pure juice enters the transfer hopper. During this process, because the filter screen filters from bottom to top, pulp and solids are less likely to adhere to and clog the bottom surface of the filter screen, resulting in more solids settling at the bottom of the feeding hopper, thus improving filtration efficiency. When cleaning the filter screen is required, the sediment at the bottom of the feeding hopper, along with some juice, is first discharged to the collection unit using the discharge pipe, while maintaining a certain distance between the bottom of the filter screen and the liquid surface. Then, pure juice is injected into the hollow cleaning plate under high pressure by the liquid delivery component, and the pulp and solids adhering to the bottom sieve surface of the filter screen are cleaned and flushed using a reverse flushing method, thereby clearing the mesh. The above operation is then repeated to continue filling. This method effectively eliminates and reduces the inconvenience and increased labor costs caused by manual filter screen replacement, which is conducive to further improving the automation of filling equipment production.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] Secondly, this utility model is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagrams. When describing the embodiments of this utility model, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views showing the device structure may be partially enlarged, not according to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. In addition, in actual manufacturing, the three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth should be included.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] Figures 1-4 The diagram shown is a complete structural schematic of a juice processing and filling device according to this utility model. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 This embodiment of a juice processing filling device includes a filling box 100. The inner cavity of the filling box 100 is divided into a feeding chamber 210 and a transfer chamber 220 by an inner partition 200. The feeding chamber 210 is located on one side and below the transfer chamber 220. A filter window and a filter screen 300 detachably installed inside the filter window are provided on the flat section at the bottom of the inner partition 200. A hollow cleaning plate 40 is suspended below the inner cavity of the transfer chamber 220 and located directly above the filter screen 300. 0. Several scattering nozzles 410 are distributed at the bottom of the hollow cleaning plate 400. The top of the filling box 100 is provided with a liquid conveying assembly 500 for inputting pure fruit juice into the hollow cleaning plate 400. The top side of the filling box 100 has a fruit juice inlet pipe 110 connected to the feed bin 210. The top side of the filling box 100 has a discharge pipe 120 connected to the transfer bin 220. The bottom of the filling box 100 is also provided with a discharge pipe 130 connected to the lowest point of the feed bin 210.

[0021] An electromagnetic flowmeter 121 is installed at the output end of the discharge pipe 120, and a solenoid valve 131 is installed at the output end of the discharge pipe 130. The bottom inner side of the feed hopper 210 also has a guide ramp 140 corresponding to the input end of the discharge pipe 130. It can be understood that the guide ramp 140 forms a funnel-like sedimentation tank at the bottom of the feed hopper 210, allowing the settled pulp and solids to settle at the bottom of the hopper, facilitating smooth discharge from the discharge pipe 130. The infusion assembly 500 includes a storage tank 510 fixed to the top of the filling tank 100, a guide pipe 520 connected at one end to the storage tank 510 and at the other end to the hollow cleaning plate 400, and a first liquid pump 530 installed on the guide pipe 520. The storage tank 510 also has an inlet pipe 600 connected to the transfer hopper 220, and a second liquid pump 610 is installed on the inlet pipe 600. The filtered pure juice in the transfer chamber 220 can be pumped into the storage tank 510 through the inlet pipe 600 and the storage tank 510 without manual addition. Of course, in practical applications, the top of the storage tank 510 is also equipped with a feed port or connected to other liquid pipelines, which is not limited. Specifically, during use, the juice concentrate is introduced into the feed chamber 210 through the juice inlet pipe 110. After the liquid level rises, it is filtered through the filter screen 300 and the pure juice enters the transfer chamber 220. During this process, since the filter screen 300 filters from bottom to top, pulp and solids are less likely to adhere to and clog the bottom surface of the filter screen, resulting in more solids settling at the bottom of the feed chamber 210, thus improving the filtration efficiency. When it is necessary to clean the filter screen 300, the sediment at the bottom of the feed chamber 210, along with some juice, is first discharged to the collection unit through the discharge pipe 130. At the same time, a certain distance is maintained between the bottom of the filter screen 300 and the liquid surface. Then, the pure juice is injected into the hollow cleaning plate 400 under high pressure by the liquid delivery component 500, and the pulp and solids adhering to the bottom sieve surface of the filter screen 300 are cleaned and flushed by reverse rinsing, thereby clearing the mesh. Then, the above operation is repeated to continue the filling operation.

[0022] Further, see Figure 1 The filling box 100 is also equipped with an inspection and replacement port and a corresponding sealing door 150. The sealing door 150 has an observation window 151. By opening the sealing door 150, it is convenient to inspect and replace the filter screen 300 and other structures inside the box. By setting up the observation window 151, which has a transparent plate on the inside, the staff can check the cleaning status of the internal filter screen from the outside.

[0023] Further, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The top of the hollow cleaning plate 400 also has multiple fixed connecting rods 420 that are fixedly suspended inside the top of the filling box 100.

[0024] Furthermore, the top of the filling tank 100 and the storage tank 510 are also equipped with level gauges corresponding to the transfer compartment 220. The level gauges, in conjunction with the control system, can monitor the amount of juice entering the filling tank 100 and the storage tank 510 to prevent insufficient quantity or overflow exceeding the limit.

[0025] It should be noted that the operation of this device is controlled by an external controller and programming, which will not be described in detail here.

[0026] In summary, the juice processing and filling equipment of this embodiment, during use, introduces raw juice into the feeding hopper 210 through the juice inlet pipe 110. After the liquid level rises, it is filtered through the filter screen 300 and the pure juice enters the transfer hopper 220. Then, the juice is filled and output through the outlet pipe 120. During this process, because the filter screen 300 filters from bottom to top, pulp and solids are less likely to adhere to and clog the bottom surface of the filter screen, resulting in more solids settling at the bottom of the feeding hopper 210, thus improving the filtration efficiency. When it is necessary to clean the filter screen 300, the discharge pipe 130 is first used to discharge the juice. The sediment at the bottom of the feed hopper 210, along with some juice, is discharged to the collection unit. At the same time, the bottom of the filter plate 300 is kept at a certain distance from the liquid surface. Then, the liquid delivery component 500 injects pure juice into the hollow cleaning plate 400 under high pressure. The pulp and solids adhering to the bottom of the filter plate 300 are washed and rinsed by reverse flushing, thereby clearing the mesh. The above operation is then repeated to continue the filling process. This method can effectively save and reduce the inconvenience and increase labor costs caused by manual filter replacement, which is conducive to further improving the automation of filling equipment production.

In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
