Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Jerusalem artichoke powder preparation, in particular to equipment for Jerusalem artichoke inulin enzymolysis technology. Background Art

[0002] Inulin is a reserve polysaccharide found in plants, boasting numerous benefits, including clearing heat and cooling blood, reducing swelling, promoting diuresis, promoting digestion, promoting laxative effects, lowering blood sugar, preventing and treating osteoporosis, and boosting immunity. It primarily originates from plants, with over 36,000 species discovered, including 11 dicot families, including the Asteraceae, Campanulaceae, and Gentianaceae, as well as the monocot families of the Liliaceae and Gramineae. For example, the tubers of Jerusalem artichoke and chicory, the tuberous roots of daphne (Dahlia), and the roots of thistles are all rich in inulin, with Jerusalem artichoke containing the highest concentration.

[0003] In the process of inulin production and processing, it is usually necessary to prepare the powdered Jerusalem artichoke by enzymatic hydrolysis, and then extract Jerusalem artichoke peptides from the inside of the Jerusalem artichoke powder through a preparation device; in order to accelerate the enzymatic hydrolysis process of inulin, stirring is usually performed during the enzymatic hydrolysis of the inulin to accelerate the mixing of inulin and inulinase, increase the efficiency of the chemical reaction, and thus improve production efficiency; but the existing stirring device usually uses a stirring blade that rotates in a single direction for stirring, but when the stirring blade rotates in a single direction, a vortex is formed. Driven by the vortex, the inulin and inulinase rotate synchronously with the vortex, resulting in insufficient mixing of the inulin and inulinase, thereby affecting the efficiency of the chemical reaction and reducing production efficiency.

[0006] As an optimization, the reverse transmission mechanism includes a driving gear coaxially fixed to the stirring shaft A, the driving gear is connected to the driven gear A through the transmission gear A, and the axes of the driving gear and the driven gear A are parallel to each other; the stirring shaft B is coaxially fixed to the driven gear A, and the driven gear A is provided with a through hole extending axially along the stirring shaft A, and the through hole is connected to the inner cavity of the stirring shaft B; the stirring paddles A and B are driven to rotate in opposite directions by the driving gear, the transmission gear A and the driven gear A.

[0007] As an optimization, the reverse transmission mechanism is connected to the driving mechanism through a reciprocating transmission mechanism, and the reciprocating transmission mechanism includes a box body B, in which a driven gear B coaxially fixed to the driving gear is provided, and the driven gear B is meshed with the transmission gear B; the transmission gear B is provided in the box body B, and the end of the transmission gear B away from the hinged part of the transmission gear B and the box body B is hinged to a driving wheel through a transmission rod, the driving wheel is provided in the box body B, and the transmission rod is hinged to the end of the driving wheel away from the hinged part of the driving wheel and the box body B; the driving wheel is connected to the driving mechanism; the reciprocating rotation of the stirring shaft A is ensured by the reciprocating transmission mechanism, so that the raw materials are more fully stirred, so that the inulin and inulinase are mixed more evenly.

[0008] As an optimization, a material guide hole is opened on the stirring paddle A and the stirring paddle B respectively, and the material guide holes on the stirring paddle A and the stirring paddle B respectively pass through the stirring surface of the stirring paddle A and the stirring paddle B; the aggregated inulin and inulinase are broken up through the material guide holes, the contact area of the inulin and inulinase is increased, and the inulin and inulinase are mixed more evenly.

[0009] As an optimization, the axis of the guide hole is tilted along the tangent of the movement trajectory of the guide hole; the tilted guide hole changes the flow direction of inulin and inulinase in the guide hole, thereby accelerating the mixing of inulin and inulinase.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the reverse transmission mechanism ensures that the stirring paddle A and the stirring paddle B rotate in opposite directions, thereby comprehensively and fully stirring the raw materials, making the inulin and inulinase mixed more evenly, increasing the chemical reaction efficiency, and improving the production efficiency; the driving gear, the transmission gear A and the driven gear A drive the stirring paddle A and the stirring paddle B to rotate in opposite directions; the reciprocating transmission mechanism ensures that the stirring shaft A rotates reciprocally, thereby more fully stirring the raw materials, making the inulin and inulinase mixed more evenly; the material guide holes are used to disperse the aggregated inulin and inulinase, thereby increasing the contact area between the inulin and inulinase, and making the inulin and inulinase mixed more evenly; the inclined material guide holes are used to change the flow direction of the inulin and inulinase in the material guide holes, thereby accelerating the mixing of the inulin and inulinase.
