Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of processing of Alpinia officinarum Hance, and particularly relates to an integrated device for efficient cleaning and sterilization of Alpinia officinarum Hance. Background Art

[0002] Alpinia officinarum Hance, also known as Fengjiang, Xiaoliangjiang, and Xuwen Liangjiang, is a plant of the Zingiberaceae family. It is named after growing in the ancient Gaoliang County (now in Zhanjiang and Maoming areas of Guangdong Province). Alpinia officinarum Hance is a tropical perennial plant resource that can be used both as food and medicine. Its dried rhizome is one of the famous ten southern Chinese medicinal herbs. Its Chinese medicine name is Alpinia officinarum Hance, and its medicinal function was first recorded in the ancient Chinese medical monograph "Materia Medica of Famous Physicians". "It tastes pungent, is hot in nature, and belongs to the spleen and stomach meridians. The medicinal materials are mainly produced in Guangdong and Guangxi, and have the effects of warming the stomach and dispelling cold, promoting digestion, regulating qi and relieving pain, etc. It is mainly used to treat stomach cold, vomiting and diarrhea, vomiting, eructation, indigestion, food stagnation, and abdominal cold pain, etc."

[0003] Chinese Patent with application number 201410016650.5 discloses a method for freezing combined with microwave and hot air drying to solidify and protect the color of Alpinia officinarum Hance. This method includes five steps: raw material cleaning and cutting, impregnation, quick freezing, microwave drying, and hot air drying. Specifically, the cleaned Alpinia officinarum Hance is cut into small sections of 2.5 - 5.0 cm, soaked in a solution of mannitol with a concentration of 5 - 20% and sodium chloride with a concentration of 1 - 5% for 10 - 24 h, then quickly frozen at -20 - -4 °C for 6 - 24 h, and then subjected to microwave drying treatment at 915 - 2450 MHz for 1 - 5 min. The Alpinia officinarum Hance after microwave treatment is transferred to a drying room and dried by hot air at 45 - 60 °C for 12 - 24 h to make the moisture content reach 9%. The dried product of Alpinia officinarum Hance obtained by this method has a good shape retention, a brownish-red surface, a hard texture, fibrous cross-section, and better retains the effective active ingredients in the product, and can be stored for a long time.

[0004] In the processing of Alpinia officinarum Hance, cleaning and sterilization are very important links. The traditional cleaning method of Alpinia officinarum Hance mainly relies on manual cleaning. This method not only has low efficiency and high labor intensity, but also the cleaning effect is difficult to guarantee, and it is easy to leave impurities and bacteria. And some of the existing cleaning equipment has a single function and can only perform simple cleaning, unable to achieve the integrated operation of cleaning and sterilization. It is necessary to transfer Alpinia officinarum Hance between different equipment, which increases the processing time and cost, and is also prone to secondary pollution during the transfer process. In addition, the existing cleaning equipment is not comprehensive enough in cleaning Alpinia officinarum Hance, and it is difficult to completely remove the soil, impurities and pesticide residues on the surface of Alpinia officinarum Hance, affecting the quality of Alpinia officinarum Hance and subsequent processing. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device that can achieve the integrated operation of efficient cleaning and sterilization of Alpinia officinarum Hance to improve the processing efficiency and quality of Alpinia officinarum Hance. For this reason, an integrated device for efficient cleaning and sterilization of Alpinia officinarum Hance has been improved and designed. Summary of the Invention
