Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a centrifugal separator for a juicer.

Conventionally, juicer centrifugal separation baskets have been made of thin stainless steel plates with pores etched into them; however, because these metal filters have smooth surfaces, they are blown away by centrifugal force. Shredded objects tend to slip when they collide, and the juice is sent to the waste receiving section before it is sufficiently separated, resulting in a low squeezing rate and some of the waste getting stuck in the pores, causing them to become clogged. This causes a problem in that the squeezing force decreases.

Furthermore, if the waste gets stuck in the pores, it is very difficult to clean it after use, making it impossible to use the juicer casually.

This idea was devised in view of these points, and the purpose is to provide a centrifugal separator for juicers that has good retention of shredded materials, improves squeezing efficiency, and is easy to clean without clogging. It is something.

This invention is characterized in that a filter frame with an upward opening is provided on a basket stand that is detachably attached to a rotary table, and a porous filter having elasticity and water permeability is attached to the inner periphery of this filter frame. It is.

Therefore, the filter supported by the filter frame is porous and has elasticity and water permeability.
Even if the shredded material collides with it, its elasticity absorbs the energy and retains the juice until it is sufficiently removed.Therefore, the squeezing rate can be improved, and the scum will not get stuck in the filter. It does not cause clogging and can be easily removed during cleaning.Although the filter itself has poor shape retention, it is held in place by the filter frame, so it is able to maintain a constant shape at all times. It is configured so that it can be done.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

First, reference numeral 1 denotes a main body case, and on one side of the main body case 1, a juice case attachment part 3 to which a juice case 2 is detachably attached is formed in a stepped shape.

A motor 6 is provided within the main body case 1 and is suspended by a buffer material 4 and mounting bolts 5, and a motor shaft 7 is provided facing upward.

A rotary table 9 having engaging protrusions 8 formed on the circumferential surface is fixed to the upper end of the motor shaft 1.

On top of the main body case 1 is a case 10 that is open from the top.
A waste receiving part 11 is formed on one side of the case 10, and an outlet 12 that opens downward is provided below the waste receiving part 11.

The outflow port 12 is positioned to match the inflow port 14 of the juice case lid 13 that is fitted onto the juice case 2.

Next, a basket assembly 15 is attached to the rotating table 9, and after the basket assembly 15 is attached, a case lid 17 having an input port 16 is attached to the case 10.

A push rod 19 with a lid 18 is inserted into the input port 16.

Therefore, the basket assembly 15 is attached to the basket stand 2.
0, a filter frame 21, a filter 22, and a cutter mount 24 to which a cutter 23 is fixed.

That is, the basket stand 20 has a cylindrical attachment part 26 that fits into the rotary table 9 and has a protrusion 25 on its inner surface that engages with the engagement protrusion 8, and an annular flange 2γ,
It is integrally molded from synthetic resin.

Further, the filter frame 21 includes a lower frame 28 that is joined to the basket stand 20, and a frame body 30 made of a metal plate whose lower edge is fixed to the lower frame 28 and in which a large number of holes 29 are formed.
and an upper frame 31 fixed to the upper edge of the frame body 30.

Further, the filter 22 is made of a porous material having elasticity and water permeability, such as polyurethane, and includes a separation part 32 that is joined to the inner surface of the frame 30 and a bottom surface 33 that is joined to the lower frame 28. .

Further, the cutter mounting base 24 is fixed by a mounting screw 35 that inserts the filter frame 21 and the filter 22 between the basket base 20 and is screwed to a bottom plate 34 located at the lower part.

In such a configuration, the basket assembly 15 rotates at high speed together with the rotary table 9, but the separating portion 32 of the filter 22
Even when subjected to centrifugal force, it is held by the frame 30 of the filter frame 21 and is in close contact with the frame 30.

Therefore, the material input from the input port 16 is transferred to the cutter 2.
3, it is shredded and collides with the separation part 32 of the filter 22 due to centrifugal force. At this time, the filter 22 has elasticity, so the repulsive force is weak, and the resistance on its surface is large, so it is shredded. The objects are held securely and gently raised to be discharged into the waste receiving section 11.

Therefore, the juice fraction is well separated and the squeeze rate is high.

In addition, since the water-permeable filter 22 is porous, it is difficult for debris to penetrate into it, preventing clogging, and even if debris adheres to the inner surface, the debris itself is serves as a kind of filter and water removal still takes place.

Furthermore, when washing with water after use, the filter 22 is not impregnated with debris, so it can be easily washed.

Although the frame body 30 of the filter frame 21 has been described as being made of a metal plate, the holes 29 thereof do not have a function as a filter, and it is desirable that the holes 29 be as large as possible without damaging the filter 22.

Also, a frame made of plastic may be used instead of a metal plate.

In the present invention, a porous filter having elasticity and water permeability is attached to the inner surface of the filter frame attached to the basket stand as described above, so that when shredded objects collide, the repulsive force is absorbed and the filter frame lasts for a long time. This makes it possible to improve the squeezing rate of the juice, and since the dregs do not stick to the filter, there is no clogging, and it is extremely easy to clean. It has a high retention property and has the effect of being able to reliably separate juices.
