It appears that dietary fiber from Cyperus beans is not only beneficial to human health but can also be modified to improve its functionality, opening up new possibilities for food scientists and consumers.5 However, existing facilities for extracting and drying dietary fiber from Cyperus beans are not only complicated and expensive but also require labor for each production step, have low extraction and drying efficiencies, and take up a lot of space. 10 CONTENT OF THE PRESENT INVENTION The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and to provide a device for the extraction and drying of dietary fiber from Cyperus beans. 15 To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A device for the extraction and drying of dietary fiber from Cyperus beans, which includes a comminution module,a liquid weighing module, a soaking and stirring module, a grinding module, a first sieve module, a second sieve module, a third sieve module, a first dewatering and drying module, a second dewatering and drying module, and a kneading and washing module; the grinding module and the liquid weighing module are connected to the soaking and stirring module; the grinding module is provided between the soaking and stirring module and the first sieve module, and a peeling sludge collection module is provided on the underside of the first sieve module; The kneading and washing module is located on one side of the peeling sludge collection module and is provided with a peeling dilution sludge collection module on the underside and is connected to the liquid weighing module; 30 The second sieve module is located between the kneading and washing module and the peeling dilution sludge collection module; BE2025 / 4999 3 The peeling dilution sludge collection module is connected to the peeling sludge collection module and the grinding module; The third sieve module is connected to a tube,that the grinding module extends above the third screen module, and the collection module for defibered sludge is provided on the underside of the third screen module; 5 The second dewatering and drying module is provided on one side of the collection module for defibered sludge. In the technical solution, the present invention comprises a comminution module, a liquid weighing module, a soaking and stirring module, a grinding module, a first, a second and a third sieving module, a first and a second dewatering and drying module, a kneading and washing module, a peeling sludge collection module and a peeling dilution sludge collection module, which work together, thereby avoiding the need for labor to operate all production steps and improving the efficiency of extraction and drying. The connection between the individual modules is relatively simple.15 which significantly reduces the complexity of the apparatus for extracting and drying dietary fiber from Cyperus beans and the cost of the equipment. Furthermore, the grinding module comprises a grinding box, wherein an inlet for Cyperus beans is provided at the top of the grinding box, while a grinding arrangement is provided inside the grinding box 20, and wherein an outlet for coarse powder of Cyperus beans is provided at the bottom of the grinding box, which also leads to the soaking and stirring module. Furthermore, the inlet for Cyperus beans is inverted trapezoidal, which significantly facilitates the penetration of Cyperus beans into the grinding box 25. Furthermore, the grinding arrangement includes a variety of grinding rods, which are used for grinding Cyperus beans and are equipped with toothed sections,wherein each shredding rod is arranged in a zigzag pattern and adjacent shredding rods interlock.30 Furthermore, the shredding module and the soaking and stirring module are detachably connected to each other. If the shredding module needs to be cleaned, the shredding module can be easily removed. BE2025 / 4999 4 Furthermore, the liquid weighing module comprises a water storage tank and a weighing sensor; The top of the water storage tank is provided with a water inlet, which is connected to an external water line, and with a first water outlet and a second water outlet, which leads to a soaking and stirring module;5 The first water outlet is connected via a pipe to the kneading and washing module; The weighing sensor is provided on the underside of the water storage tank to weigh the water in the water storage tank. Furthermore, the soaking and stirring module includes a soaking tank,Stirring rods and a temperature sensor; 10 The underside of the soaking tank is connected to the grinding module; The stirring rod and the temperature sensor are provided in the soaking tank. Furthermore, the stirring rods are arranged evenly along the longitudinal direction of the soaking tank to achieve the technical effect of mixing and blending the coarse powder of Cyperus beans and the water at room temperature in the 15 soaking tank.
