DESCRIPCIONDESCRIPTION

Maquina para prensar fruta o productos similares, y procedimiento para limpiar sus canales de drenaje.Machine for pressing fruit or similar products, and procedure to clean your drainage channels.

La presente invencion se refiere a una maquina mejorada para prensar fruta o productos similares y a un procedimiento para limpiar los canales de drenaje de la misma.The present invention relates to an improved machine for pressing fruit or similar products and a method for cleaning the drainage channels thereof.

Se conocen maquinas para prensar fruta, en particular uvas, segun el preambulo de la reivindicacion 1 a partir del documento EP0721836. Estas maquinas normalmente son del tipo neumatico y comprenden un tambor cilfndrico que gira alrededor de un eje central provisto de cuatro aletas radiales longitudinales y una membrana soportada por estas ultimas. Se aplican rejillas anulares al interior de la cubierta de carcasa del tambor que, junto con la cubierta de carcasa, definen espacios anulares separados a lo largo del eje del tambor y que definen canales de drenaje. El interior de los mismos recoge el lfquido obtenido del prensado del producto mediante la membrana, en la que se alimenta el aire comprimido para provocar su adherencia a la cubierta de carcasa y a la rejilla del tambor. Los canales de drenaje tambien estan provistos de aberturas que convergen en un colector unico conectado al entorno exterior a la maquina.Machines for pressing fruit, in particular grapes, are known according to the preamble of claim 1 from EP0721836. These machines are normally of the pneumatic type and comprise a cylindrical drum that rotates around a central axis provided with four longitudinal radial fins and a membrane supported by the latter. Annular grids are applied to the interior of the drum housing cover which, together with the housing cover, define separate annular spaces along the axis of the drum and defining drainage channels. The inside of them collects the liquid obtained from the pressing of the product by means of the membrane, in which the compressed air is fed to cause its adhesion to the housing cover and to the drum rack. The drainage channels are also provided with openings that converge in a single collector connected to the environment outside the machine.

Tambien se conoce una maquina de este tipo a partir del documento EP 1338408. La principal desventaja de este tipo de maquina es el hecho de que, inevitablemente, no solo entra el lfquido del producto prensado en los canales de drenaje, sino tambien residuos solidos que se depositan en las paredes del canal para bloquear las aberturas pasantes de las rejillas, con la consecuente reduccion en el area de drenaje.A machine of this type is also known from EP 1338408. The main disadvantage of this type of machine is the fact that, inevitably, not only the liquid from the pressed product enters the drainage channels, but also solid waste that they are deposited in the walls of the channel to block the through openings of the grilles, with the consequent reduction in the drainage area.

Con el fin de superar estas desventajas, los canales de drenaje se tienen que limpiar periodicamente. Actualmente, esto se consigue parando la maquina para poder abrir la puerta de carga del tambor, entrando entonces en el tambor con un tubo pulverizador que alimenta agua a alta presion en las aberturas de las rejillas de los canales de drenaje. Ademas, en algunos casos, se tienen que alimentar cepillos en el tambor, o el tambor se debe llenar con detergentes (por ejemplo con base de sosa caustica), para despues hacer girar dicho tambor durante un cierto periodo de tiempo antes del drenado de la solucion de agua y detergente. Finalmente, en otros casos, las rejillas del canal de drenaje se tienen que retirar de sus asientos en el interior del tambor para poder lavarlas cuidadosamente.In order to overcome these disadvantages, drainage channels must be cleaned periodically. Currently, this is achieved by stopping the machine to be able to open the drum loading door, then entering the drum with a spray tube that feeds high pressure water into the openings of the drainage channel grilles. In addition, in some cases, brushes have to be fed into the drum, or the drum must be filled with detergents (for example with a caustic soda base), to then rotate said drum for a certain period of time before draining the drum. water and detergent solution. Finally, in other cases, the drains of the drainage channel must be removed from their seats inside the drum to be able to wash them carefully.

Todos estos procedimientos conocidos de limpieza de los canales de drenaje requieren el paro de la maquina, con el resultado de una perdida de tiempo y de una menor eficiencia y productividad de la maquina.All these known procedures for cleaning the drainage channels require the machine to stop, resulting in a waste of time and a lower efficiency and productivity of the machine.

El documento JP H02 125789 describe una maquina en la que la rotacion del tambor cilfndrico provoca el movimiento de una pluralidad de cuerpos libres alojados en el interior de un canal cerrado. En particular, cuando dichos cuerpos se mueven, impactan y frotan las superficies que definen el tamiz para, de este modo, evitar la deposicion de residuos solidos en las superficies, al mismo tiempo que retiran cualquier residuo que haya conseguido adherirse a las superficies del tamiz.JP H02 125789 describes a machine in which the rotation of the cylindrical drum causes the movement of a plurality of free bodies housed inside a closed channel. In particular, when said bodies move, they impact and rub the surfaces that define the sieve to, thus, avoid the deposition of solid residues on the surfaces, at the same time that they remove any residue that has managed to adhere to the surfaces of the sieve. .

El objetivo principal de la invencion es eliminar las desventajas de las maquinas tradicionales proponiendo una maquina mejorada para prensar fruta o similar que no requiera el paro para la limpieza de los canales de drenaje.The main objective of the invention is to eliminate the disadvantages of traditional machines by proposing an improved machine for pressing fruit or the like that does not require stoppage for cleaning the drainage channels.

Otro objetivo es proponer un procedimiento para limpiar los canales de drenaje que se lleve a cabo de forma automatica por la propia maquina, sin ninguna intervencion del operario.Another objective is to propose a procedure to clean the drainage channels that are carried out automatically by the machine itself, without any operator intervention.

Otro objetivo de la invencion es proponer un procedimiento y una maquina en los que la limpieza de los canales de drenaje sea efectiva y completa.Another objective of the invention is to propose a procedure and a machine in which the cleaning of the drainage channels is effective and complete.

Otro objetivo de la invencion es proponer una maquina y un procedimiento que resulten sencillos y economicos.Another objective of the invention is to propose a machine and a procedure that are simple and economical.

Todos estos objetivos, asf como otros que se pondran de manifiesto a partir de la descripcion siguiente, se consiguen de acuerdo con la invencion mediante una maquina mejorada para prensar fruta o similares con las caracterfsticas indicadas en la reivindicacion 1.All these objectives, as well as others that will become apparent from the following description, are achieved in accordance with the invention by an improved machine for pressing fruit or the like with the characteristics indicated in claim 1.

la Figura 4 muestra una vista en perspectiva de una porcion de una rejilla anular presente en la maquina de la Figura 1, yFigure 4 shows a perspective view of a portion of an annular grid present in the machine of Figure 1, and

la Figura 5 es una vista frontal ampliada de un elemento de la Figura 4.Figure 5 is an enlarged front view of an element of Figure 4.

Tal como se puede apreciar a partir de las figuras, la maquina 2 segun la invencion para prensar fruta o productos similares, en particular uvas, es del tipo segun el documento EP 0721836 y comprende un tambor 4 que gira alrededor de un eje central 6 provisto de cuatro aletas radiales longitudinales 7 que soportan una membrana tubular 8 de material suave no toxico.As can be seen from the figures, the machine 2 according to the invention for pressing fruit or similar products, in particular grapes, is of the type according to EP 0721836 and comprises a drum 4 that rotates around a central axis 6 provided of four longitudinal radial fins 7 supporting a tubular membrane 8 of soft non-toxic material.

Se fija una serie de rejillas anulares 12 a la superficie interior 10 de la cubierta de carcasa del tambor 4. En particular, el espacio entre la superficie interior 10 de la cubierta de carcasa del tambor 4 y la superficie exterior 16 de cada rejilla 12 forma un canal de drenaje 18 de la maquina 2.A series of annular grilles 12 is fixed to the inner surface 10 of the drum housing cover 4. In particular, the space between the inner surface 10 of the drum housing cover 4 and the outer surface 16 of each grid 12 forms a drain channel 18 of machine 2.

En cada uno de los canales de drenaje 18 se dispone una pluralidad de cuerpos moviles libres 20 que presentan una masa determinada. Preferentemente, dichos cuerpos son esfericos, pero tambien pueden presentar otras formas, por ejemplo forma ovalada, prismatica o poliedrica en general. Ademas, dichos cuerpos se pueden realizar en materiales diferentes, por ejemplo metal, en particular acero, o polfmero, preferentemente cauchos o nylon, o piedra. En particular, el material metalico resulta ventajoso porque solo se desgasta una pequena parte de la superficie de los cuerpos 20; igualmente, el material de polfmero resulta ventajoso porque se reduce el ruido que genera el movimiento de los cuerpos 20 contra las superficies metalicas 10 y 16 que definen los canales de drenaje 18. Ante esto, de acuerdo con una forma de realizacion particularmente ventajosa, los cuerpos 20 consisten en una esfera de acero cubierta en su parte exterior con una capa de nylon.In each of the drainage channels 18 a plurality of free movable bodies 20 are provided having a determined mass. Preferably, said bodies are spherical, but they can also have other shapes, for example oval, prismatic or polyhedral shape in general. Furthermore, said bodies can be made of different materials, for example metal, in particular steel, or polymer, preferably rubbers or nylon, or stone. In particular, the metal material is advantageous because only a small part of the surface of the bodies 20 is worn out; likewise, the polymer material is advantageous because the noise generated by the movement of the bodies 20 against the metal surfaces 10 and 16 that define the drainage channels 18 is reduced. Given this, according to a particularly advantageous embodiment, the bodies 20 consist of a steel sphere covered in its outer part with a layer of nylon.

Cada uno de los canales de drenaje 20 esta provisto tambien de una abertura de descarga 22 y dichas aberturas convergen en un unico colector 24 situado en la parte exterior de la maquina 2 para transportar el lfquido obtenido del prensado. En el interior de cada canal de drenaje 18, en la abertura 22 de cada uno de dichos canales, se preve un elemento 26 fijado a una pared del canal, preferentemente a la pared interior 16, mediante soportes 28, de manera que la distancia 30 de dicho elemento 26 con respecto a la superficie opuesta 10 del canal de drenaje es menor que las dimensiones de los cuerpos 20. En particular, tal como se pone de manifiesto a partir de la Figura 3, la distancia 30 debe ser menor que el diametro de los cuerpos esfericos 20, siendo este aspecto necesario para evitar que estos ultimos puedan entrar en la abertura 22.Each of the drainage channels 20 is also provided with a discharge opening 22 and said openings converge in a single manifold 24 located on the outside of the machine 2 to transport the liquid obtained from the pressing. Inside each drainage channel 18, in the opening 22 of each of said channels, an element 26 is provided fixed to a channel wall, preferably to the inner wall 16, by means of supports 28, so that the distance 30 of said element 26 with respect to the opposite surface 10 of the drainage channel is smaller than the dimensions of the bodies 20. In particular, as shown from Figure 3, the distance 30 must be smaller than the diameter of the spherical bodies 20, this aspect being necessary to prevent the latter from entering the opening 22.

Esencialmente, el elemento 26 define sobre la abertura 22 una especie de cerco de confinamiento que obliga a los cuerpos 20, accionados por la rotacion del tambor 4, a pasar a la parte exterior de la zona circunscrita por el elemento 26.Essentially, the element 26 defines on the opening 22 a kind of confinement fence that forces the bodies 20, actuated by the rotation of the drum 4, to pass to the outer part of the area circumscribed by the element 26.

Preferentemente, el elemento 26 presenta orificios 27 para el paso del flujo de producto prensado. Con mayor detalle, el elemento 26 presenta unas dimensiones mayores que la abertura 22. Ademas, puede presentar una forma anular, circular o elfptica, pero tambien podrfa presentar una forma poligonal, por ejemplo romboide (vease la Figura 4); sin embargo, en este ultimo caso, para evitar el bloqueo de los cuerpos 20 durante la rotacion, los lados 29 del polfgono son inclinados, no paralelos, con respecto a la direccion de extension transversal del canal de drenaje 18.Preferably, the element 26 has holes 27 for the flow of the pressed product. In greater detail, the element 26 has dimensions larger than the opening 22. In addition, it may have an annular, circular or elliptical shape, but it could also have a polygonal shape, for example rhomboid (see Figure 4); however, in the latter case, in order to avoid blocking the bodies 20 during rotation, the sides 29 of the polygon are inclined, not parallel, with respect to the direction of transverse extension of the drainage channel 18.

La maquina mejorada de la invencion funciona del modo siguiente. Durante el ciclo de trabajo de la maquina, despues de que el tambor 4 se haya llenado con el producto que se va a prensar, la membrana se infla y presiona el producto contra la cubierta de carcasa 10 del tambor 4 y contra la rejilla 12. El lfquido obtenido por esta operacion de prensado entra asf en los canales de drenaje 18 y, desde allf, empieza a fluir en el colector 24 pasando por las aberturas 22.The improved machine of the invention works as follows. During the machine's duty cycle, after the drum 4 has been filled with the product to be pressed, the membrane inflates and presses the product against the housing cover 10 of the drum 4 and against the grid 12. The liquid obtained by this pressing operation thus enters the drainage channels 18 and, from there, begins to flow into the manifold 24 through the openings 22.

Posteriormente, la membrana se desinfla mediante succion creada en su interior y el tambor 4 se hace girar en sentido horario y en sentido antihorario para desmenuzar el producto prensado en el tambor en el espacio que ha dejado la membrana 8. Esta rotacion del tambor 4 tambien hace que se muevan los cuerpos moviles libres 20 presentes en los canales de drenaje 18. En particular, con el movimiento a lo largo de las superficies de los canales de drenaje 18, los cuerpos 20 evitan que los residuos se adhieran a las superficies 10 y 16 de dichos canales y, ademas, retiran de dichas superficies y, en particular de las rejillas 12, aquellos residuos que, en cualquier caso, hayan conseguido adherirse a dichas superficies.Subsequently, the membrane is deflated by suction created inside and the drum 4 is rotated clockwise and counterclockwise to shred the product pressed into the drum in the space left by the membrane 8. This rotation of the drum 4 also causes the free movable bodies 20 present in the drainage channels 18 to move. In particular, with the movement along the surfaces of the drainage channels 18, the bodies 20 prevent debris from adhering to surfaces 10 and 16 of said channels and, in addition, remove from said surfaces and, in particular from the grids 12, those residues that, in any case, have been able to adhere to said surfaces.

Ventajosamente, los elementos 32 se fijan a la superficie interior 16 de la rejilla 12, por ejemplo mediante soldadura, para sobresalir desde dicha superficie interior 16 a una altura inferior a la de los cuerpos libres 20. En particular, dichos elementos 32 actuan sustancialmente como rampas para los cuerpos libres 20 que, de este modo, se elevan y se fuerzan hacia la superficie 10 del tambor giratorio 4, para volver a caer despues en la superficie interior 16 de la rejilla 12; esto resulta ventajoso porque, despues del salto impuesto por los elementos 32, los cuerpos 20, al caer, se ven obligados a entrar en contacto con la superficie interior 16 de la rejilla 12, facilitando de esta manera la limpieza de esta ultima.Advantageously, the elements 32 are fixed to the inner surface 16 of the grid 12, for example by welding, to project from said inner surface 16 at a height lower than that of the free bodies 20. In particular, said elements 32 act substantially as ramps for the free bodies 20 which, in this way, are raised and forced towards the surface 10 of the rotating drum 4, to later fall back on the inner surface 16 of the grid 12; This is advantageous because, after the jump imposed by the elements 32, the bodies 20, when falling, are forced to come into contact with the inner surface 16 of the grid 12, thus facilitating the cleaning of the latter.

En particular, tal como se pone de manifiesto a partir de la Figura 4, los elementos 32 estan alineados con la extension transversal de la rejilla anular 12 y se distribuyen de manera adecuada a lo largo de la extension circular de dicha rejilla.In particular, as is evident from Figure 4, the elements 32 are aligned with the transverse extension of the annular grid 12 and are properly distributed along the circular extension of said grid.

5 Ventajosamente, los elementos 32 comprenden aberturas pasantes 34, con el fin de no interrumpir el flujo de lfquido de producto prensado que se encuentra en el canal de drenaje 18. Con mayor detalle, tal como se muestra en la Figura 5, los elementos 32 presentan una forma de E invertida, con sus extremos inferiores 36 fijados a la superficie interior 16 de la rejilla 12.5 Advantageously, the elements 32 comprise through openings 34, in order not to interrupt the flow of liquid from the pressed product that is in the drainage channel 18. In greater detail, as shown in Figure 5, the elements 32 they have an inverted E-shape, with their lower ends 36 fixed to the inner surface 16 of the grid 12.

10 A partir de lo anterior, se pone de manifiesto que la maquina mejorada y el procedimiento de limpieza del canal de drenaje segun la invencion resultan particularmente ventajosos ya que mantienen los canales limpios, al mismo tiempo que tambien mantienen las rejillas limpias, sustancialmente sin que la maquina se pare y/o la rejilla se desmonte.10 From the foregoing, it becomes clear that the improved machine and the cleaning procedure of the drainage channel according to the invention are particularly advantageous since they keep the channels clean, while also keeping the grids clean, substantially without the machine stops and / or the grill is removed.
