Abstract
Description
- The present invention refers to a cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter.
- More specifically, the present invention refers to a cleaning device of olive residue associated with the annular collector fixed to the outlet end of the olive residue from the decanter.
- As known, the olives, once crushed and transformed into paste, arrive at the centrifugal separator with horizontal axis, known as a decanter. The decanter allows the three phases present in the paste (oil, water, olive residue), with different specific weight, to be separated by means of centrifugal force. The decanter is frustoconical cylinder shaped, with an inner Archimedean screw (responsible for pushing the olive residue towards the outlet), and coaxial with an outer drum and a casing that encloses the whole thing. The conical part improves the separation of the solid (olive residue) from the liquid and the cylindrical part allows the separation of the oil from the water.
- At the end opposite the introduction of the olive paste and water there is a motor, with a connection system to the Archimedean screw and to the drum, and a differential revolution regulator that allows intervention on the degree of separation and on the retention time of the paste inside the decanter, according to the type of olives and paste processed.
- The oily must (water and oil), coming out from the decanter, is pumped inside a centrifugal separator with vertical axis that takes care of completing the separation of the oil from the vegetation waters.
- On the other hand, the olive residue is collected at the outlet end by an annular collector and sent to an expulsion Archimedean screw.
- It may be that, during operation, part of the olive residue pushed by the inner Archimedean screw towards the expulsion Archimedean screw, can accumulate on the inner walls of the annular collector causing it to become clogged and thus blocking the passage to the expulsion Archimedean screw.
- This happens since the olive residue is expelled radially with force against the inner walls of the collector, where it sticks due to the high humidity percentage present in the olive residue.
- In such a case it therefore becomes necessary to interrupt the operating cycle and intervene from the outside to remove the olive residue that has accumulated, with consequent drawbacks in terms of productivity.
- Therefore, there is a great requirement to have a cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter that allows the olive residue that sticks to the inner walls of the collector and that thus blocks the passage towards the expulsion Archimedean screw to be removed automatically, i.e. without needing to intervene from the outside.
- The purpose of the present invention is that of providing a cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter having structural and functional characteristics such as to satisfy the aforementioned requirements and at the same time to avoid the aforementioned drawbacks with reference to the prior art.
- Such a purpose is accomplished through a cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter in accordance with
claim 1. - The dependent claims outline preferred and particularly advantageous embodiments of the cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter according to the invention.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the invention shall become clear from reading the following description provided as an example and not for limiting purposes, with the help of the figures illustrated in the attached tables, in which:
- figure 1 shows a side view partially in section of a cleaning device of olive residue according to the invention, associated with a collector fixed to the olive residue outlet end of a decanter;
- figure 2 shows a schematic view taken from the arrow A of figure 1;
- figures 3 and 4 show a schematic view from above of a detail of the device of figure 1, in two different configurations.
- With reference to the aforementioned figures, a cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a
decanter 100 in accordance with the present invention is globally indicated with 1. - The
decanter 100 has an inner according to the invention, schematised in figure 1, and coaxial with anouter drum 102 having a cylindrical frustoconical-shaped perforated wall, and acasing 103 that encloses the whole thing. - At the end opposite to the introduction of the olive paste and water, to the right in figure 1, there is a
motor 104 that, with a connection system, of the known type and therefore not described in detail, actuates into rotation both the Archimedeanscrew 101 and thedrum 102. During the operating cycle, the olive residue, which occupies the space between the inner Archimedeanscrew 101 and therotary drum 102, is pushed by the inner Archimedeanscrew 102 towards theoutlet holes 105, arranged radially, from where it is expelled by means of the centrifugal force (3000-4000 rpm of the drum, 10-15 rpm of the Archimedean screw) against the inner walls of acollector 107, in the example of the annular type, and sent to an expulsion Archimedean screw, arranged below and schematised in figure 1. - In order to clean the inner walls of the
collector 107 from the olive residue that often sticks there, thecleaning device 1 according to the invention is used. - Said
cleaning device 1 comprises acircular crown 2, arranged inside thecollector 107, on which a plurality of cleaning elements are fixed, in theexample rods 3, preferably rigid, arranged parallel to each other and equally spaced apart. - The
crown 2 is free to rotate in a guide channel 4 formed inside thecollector 107. - In accordance with the invention, the
rods 3 lick the inner circular wall of thecollector 107 that surrounds theholes 105 from which the olive residue is expelled with force. - The actuation of the
crown 2 carrying therods 3 is carried out through amotor reducer 5 that transmits motion, through an eccentric 9, to a connectingrod 6 connected to apin 7 fixed to thecircular crown 2. Thepin 7 is free to move with alternating motion (Fig. 3, 4) sliding inside aguide slot 8 formed on the collector 107 (Fig. 2). - Basically, the motor reducer 5, rotating, transmits, via the eccentric 9, through the connecting
rod 6, an alternating motion to thepin 7 integral with thecrown 2 that, consequently, rotates alternately, by a certain angle of circumference in the clockwise or anti-clockwise direction, inside the guide channel 4. This allows therods 3 that lick the inner wall of thecollector 107 to scrape away the olive residue that has solidified on the inner wall making it easier for it to fall by gravity into the underlying expulsion Archimedeanscrew 106. - In order to scrape the entire inner wall of the
collector 107 with alternating motion of thepin 7, the distance between twoconsecutive rods 3 is equal to the oscillation size of thecrown 2 in the channel 4. - As an alternative to the use of a plurality of
rods 3 fixed to thecrown 2, it is possible to use a single cleaning element that by licking the inner wall of thecollector 107 is actuated to scrape such a wall. - The activation of the
device 1 of the present invention can be carried out either manually, each time that this is necessary or else through an automatic electronic management system that is actuated autonomously at predetermined periods and according to the amount of olive residue treated. - As can be appreciated from what has been described, the cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter according to the present invention allows the requirements to be satisfied and allows the drawbacks mentioned in the introductory part of the present description with reference to the prior art to be overcome.
- Indeed, the cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter according to the present invention allows the inner walls of the collector associated with the outlet end of the olive residue to be cleaned automatically, i.e. without the intervention of an operator from the outside.
- Of course, a man skilled in the art can bring numerous modifications and variants to the cleaning device of olive residue coming out from a decanter described above in order to satisfy contingent and specific requirements, all of which are covered by the scope of protection of the invention, as defined by the following claims.
