The present invention relates to the technical field of bee product processing, and particularly to royal jelly filtration devices and methods.

During the production and processing process of royal jelly, it is necessary to remove impurities such as honey bee carcasses, beeswax residues, and dust contained therein, so filtration treatment is required. Fresh royal jelly is milky and semi-fluid, and the impurities present in royal jelly and 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10-HDA) crystals tend to clog the filtration network, so filtration of royal jelly is very difficult. Have difficulty. Fresh royal jelly is rich in bioactive substances such as active peptides, hormones and enzymes, its biological activity is unstable and susceptible to damage under the influence of conditions such as temperature, sunshine, air and processing. Especially temperature affects the health care effect. Therefore, improving the filtration efficiency and quality is advantageous for reducing the decomposition of bioactive substances in royal jelly and maintaining the quality and freshness of royal jelly.

There are mainly the following two methods for the conventional royal jelly filtration method. One is a method of realizing royal jelly filtration by compressing air with a piston. This filtration method has a simple structure and is easy to work with, but has the following drawbacks. Continuous filtration cannot be realized, and it is necessary to continuously supply royal jelly raw materials during the production process, and the efficiency of the initial stage of filtration is high. Acid) Since impurities such as crystals and carcasses of honey tend to clog the filtration net, it is necessary to replace and clean the filtration net frequently, which leads to a decrease in production efficiency, an increase in royal jelly loss, and a decrease in filtration efficiency. Moreover, air extrusion filtration is adopted during filtration, and since the royal jelly obtained by filtration contains a large amount of air, some biologically active components are oxidized. The other is a method of realizing royal jelly filtration by a mechanical vibration filtration network. This filtration method has a relatively simple mechanical structure and is relatively easy to work with. However, there are the following drawbacks. The efficiency of the initial stage of filtration is relatively high, but in the later stage, impurities such as beeswax residue in royal jelly, 10-HDA (royal jelly acid) crystals, and carcasses of bees easily clog the filtration net, resulting in significant filtration efficiency. The device has a debris removal port, but there is no support device to realize the debris removal function, and the debris is removed only by vibration, and the debris removal effect is poor. Therefore, the filtration efficiency is improved. In order to make it, it is necessary to manually remove debris or replace the vibration screen during the work process, it is difficult to realize efficient continuous filtration work, vibration work is adopted and vibration during filtration. The likelihood of royal jelly coming into contact with air during the process increases, which exacerbates the oxidative degradation of the bioactive components of royal jelly.
