Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of health product (food) production equipment, specifically a production equipment and preparation method for Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage. Background Technology

[0002] Antioxidant refers to the ability to fight free radicals. Due to continuous contact with the external environment, including respiration (oxidation reaction), external pollution, radiation exposure, and other factors, the human body constantly produces free radicals. Studies have shown that cancer, aging, or other diseases are mostly related to the production of excessive free radicals. Dyslipidemia is a relatively common disease, which is an abnormal metabolism of lipoproteins in the human body. It is one of the important factors leading to atherosclerosis and an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease and ischemic stroke.

[0003] Angelica sinensis has the effects of nourishing blood, promoting blood circulation, regulating menstruation, relieving pain, and moistening the intestines to relieve constipation. Fruit vinegar, in addition to preventing fatigue, reducing excessive sweating, and enhancing immune function, when mixed with angelica sinensis in a proper ratio, has significant benefits in anti-oxidation and maintaining healthy blood lipid levels. Therefore, angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage has good benefits as a health product with antioxidant and blood lipid-maintaining effects. However, when using angelica sinensis as a raw material to mix with fruit vinegar to make a health product, the angelica sinensis must first be processed (including washing, crushing, filtering, drying, etc.), then the angelica sinensis and fruit vinegar must be mixed according to the standard ratio, and finally left to stand and stir until the finished product. However, the existing initial crushing process of angelica sinensis still has drawbacks: In practice, because Angelica sinensis contains a lot of volatile oil, it is usually crushed to maximize its effectiveness. However, the temperature of existing Angelica sinensis crushers increases continuously during high-speed rotation, causing the volatile oil inside the Angelica sinensis to evaporate easily, thus affecting its normal health benefits. Furthermore, the continuous high-speed rotation of the crusher gradually turns the Angelica sinensis into a pulverized or even powdered state. However, the effect of powdered or heavily pulverized Angelica sinensis is far less than that of slightly crushed Angelica sinensis. Therefore, based on the above, an Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage production equipment and preparation method are proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, the present invention provides a production equipment and preparation method for Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage, which solves the drawback that in the early stage of mixing Angelica sinensis and fruit vinegar, it is impossible to properly crush Angelica sinensis, which leads to a reduction in its original medicinal efficacy.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage, the preparation method of which includes the following steps: pulverizing Angelica sinensis slices, adding water at a ratio of 1:50-60, boiling for 40-60 minutes to obtain a decoction of raw Angelica sinensis, removing and cooling; when the temperature drops to 45-55℃, adding pectinase at 0.1-0.2% by weight, stirring, measuring the pH value to 3-5, placing in an incubator at 45-48℃ for 3 hours, removing and cooling, allowing to stand and separate into layers to obtain Angelica sinensis liquid; adding 12°C pectinase at 5%-10% by weight. Brix -14° Brix Fruit juice that has undergone sugar and acid adjustment followed by alcoholic and acetic acid fermentation has an antioxidant and lipid-maintaining effect that is 12% and 18% higher, respectively, compared to juice processed by a regular grinder. The Angelica fermentation stock solution is obtained by decocting Angelica powder and extracting it, while the fruit juice fermentation stock solution is obtained by juicing fresh apples and pears. The fermentation process is as follows: mixing angelica extract with fruit juice → adjusting sugar and acid → alcoholic fermentation → acetic acid fermentation → angelica fruit vinegar → blending → angelica fruit vinegar beverage.

[0006] A production device for Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage includes a preparation box. Blowing units are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the preparation box. A pressing unit is movably connected to the upper end of the inner cavity of the preparation box.

A pressing unit is abutted against the middle of the bottom surface of the filtering unit. Pulling ropes connected to the placement plate are wound around both ends of the pressing unit. A toggle unit fixedly connected to the preparation box is movably connected to both sides of the top of the placement plate.

[0007] Preferably, the blowing unit includes a blowing chamber fixedly connected to the top of the preparation box and a belt located above the blowing chamber. Fans are movably sleeved on both sides of the upper end of the blowing chamber. A rotating module is connected to the central bearing at the top of the blowing chamber. The upper ends of the two fans are connected to the rotating module via belts. The top of the rotating module is engaged with the power unit. The interior of the blowing chamber is connected to the interior of the movable unit. The rotating module includes a roller connected to the bearing of the blowing chamber and to the belt drive. A worm gear engaged with the power unit is fixedly connected to the top of the roller.

[0008] Preferably, the power unit includes a drive motor fixedly connected to the top of the preparation box, one end of the output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to a worm gear movably connected to the top of the preparation box, the middle part of the worm gear is fixedly connected to a first cam that abuts against the top of the pressing unit, and both the front and rear ends of the worm gear are engaged with the blowing unit.

[0009] Preferably, the pressing unit includes a pressing rod movably connected to the upper end of the preparation box, a pressing plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressing rod, and spring telescopic tubes fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the preparation box on both sides of the top of the pressing plate. The bottom surface of the pressing rod is provided with bevels at both ends, which are adapted to the actuation unit.

[0010] Preferably, the active unit includes a corrugated pipe fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the preparation box, and an air outlet bend located outside the pressure unit is fixedly connected to the bottom of the corrugated pipe. The bottom of the air outlet bend is at the same horizontal line as the bottom of the pressure plate.

[0011] Preferably, the filtration unit includes a filter plate that is movably connected to the inner wall of the preparation box and is located directly below the placement plate. Each of the four corners of the bottom surface of the filter plate is fixedly installed with a first spring telescopic cylinder that is fixedly connected to the lower end of the inner cavity of the preparation box. The middle part of the bottom surface of the filter plate is in contact with the contact unit.

[0012] Preferably, the abutting unit includes a fixed rod fixedly connected to the inside of the preparation box, a spring plate fixedly connected to one end of the fixed rod, a rotating shaft fixedly connected to a bearing inside the preparation box fixedly connected to the inside of the spring plate, a second cam fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter unit at both ends of the rotating shaft, and a pull rope sleeved at both ends of the rotating shaft. The actuating unit includes a second spring telescopic cylinder fixedly connected to the preparation box, an actuating plate movably connected to the top of the placement plate fixedly connected to one end of the second spring telescopic cylinder near the pressing unit, and an oblique angle adapted to the bottom surface of the pressing unit on the top surface of the actuating plate near the pressing unit.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the pressure plate is provided with a number of toothed plates, with the large end face of the toothed plates facing upward and the small end face facing downward, and the middle area of ​​every two toothed plates corresponds to the opening at the bottom of the air outlet bend.

[0014] A method for preparing an angelica fruit vinegar beverage, the method being as follows: S1. Pull the two feed baffles outward to release the sealing effect on the inside of the preparation box. Place the dried angelica stalks on top of the placement plate and directly below the pressure plate. Push the feed baffles again to seal the inside of the preparation box. S2. Start the drive motor. The drive motor drives the first cam through the worm gear to intermittently abut the top of the pressure rod, so that the pressure rod drives the pressure plate and the bottom toothed plate to crush the blocky angelica. Through the design of the shape of the first cam, the bottom of the pressure plate will intermittently crush the blocky angelica. S3. As the worm rotates, the two ends of its outer wall will cause the worm wheel at the top of the rotating module to rotate. The worm wheel drives the roller to rotate, and the roller drives the fan through the belt to blow air inside the blowing chamber. The airflow will enter the interior of the bellows through the preparation box, and then enter the interior of the air outlet bend through the bellows. The air outlet bend blows the outer wall of the adjacent teeth at the bottom of the pressure plate. At the same time, the pressure plate will run synchronously with the bellows and the air outlet bend. S4. When the pressure plate moves downward to crush the lumpy angelica, the agitator plate will move outward as it gradually moves downward. Conversely, when the pressure plate moves upward, the agitator plate will be subjected to the elastic force of the second spring telescopic cylinder and move closer to the pressure unit. In turn, the movement of the agitator plate will push the angelica against its inner wall, increasing its thickness. Whenever the pressure plate moves upward, the agitator plate will push the angelica. S5. After crushing the angelica, pull the placement plate outward. The preparation box will block the angelica above the placement plate, causing it to gradually fall to the top of the filter plate. As the placement plate moves outward, it will drive the rotating shaft to rotate through the pull rope. When the rotating shaft rotates, it intermittently abuts the bottom of the filter plate through the second cam, causing the filter plate to move up and down intermittently. This cleans and filters the dust and impurities in the angelica on top. Then, pull the feed baffle outward to push and collect the crushed angelica on the top of the placement plate.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: This invention, through the combination of a pressing unit and a pushing unit, avoids the drawback of existing pulverizers where continuous pulverization results in Angelica sinensis appearing as a near-powder, thus significantly reducing its effectiveness. The first cam intermittently presses the top of the pressing rod, causing the pressing rod to drive the pressing plate to intermittently press and crush the Angelica sinensis below it. When the pressing plate moves downward, its bottom surface will push the pushing plate outward. Conversely, when the pressing plate moves upward, the pushing plate will be pushed outward by the elastic force of the second spring telescopic cylinder. Through the intermittent movement of the pressing plate and the pushing plate, the heavy pulverization effect of existing pulverizers on angelica sinensis is effectively avoided, while the pulverization effect is greatly improved. This invention, through the combination of structures such as the active unit and the blowing unit, avoids the accumulation of impurities and dust on the outer wall of the toothed pressure plate at the bottom of the pressure plate when crushing Angelica sinensis, thus preventing a reduction in the crushing effect. When the worm gear rotates, it blows air into the corrugated pipe and the air outlet bend through the rotating module, belt, and fan. The air outlet of the air outlet bend blows air onto the outer walls of the two adjacent toothed pressure plates, preventing impurities and dust from sticking to the walls and affecting the crushing effect. This invention achieves a cleaning and filtering effect on crushed angelica by combining a placement plate and a filter unit, improving the cleanliness and tidiness during subsequent use. Pulling the placement plate outward causes the crushed angelica to gradually fall to the top of the filter plate. The continuous outward pulling of the placement plate will drive the rotating shaft through the pull rope to intermittently abut against the bottom of the filter plate via the second cam, causing the filter plate to move up and down intermittently, thereby cleaning and filtering the dust and impurities from the crushed angelica at the top.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Example 1

[0019] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, this invention provides an Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage. The preparation method of the Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage includes the following steps: Angelica sinensis slices are crushed, water is added at a ratio of 1:50-60, and the mixture is boiled for 40-60 minutes to obtain a decoction of raw Angelica sinensis. The decoction is then removed and cooled. When the temperature drops to 45-55℃, pectinase is added at 0.1-0.2% by weight, stirred, and the pH value is measured to be 3-5. The mixture is then placed in an incubator at 45-48℃ for 3 hours, removed, cooled, and allowed to stand for separation to obtain Angelica sinensis liquid. 12°C pectinase is added at 5%-10% by weight. Brix -14° Brix Fruit juice that has undergone sugar and acid adjustment followed by alcoholic and acetic acid fermentation has an antioxidant and lipid-maintaining effect that is 12% and 18% higher, respectively, compared to juice processed by a regular grinder. The Angelica fermentation stock solution is obtained by decocting Angelica powder and extracting it, while the fruit juice fermentation stock solution is obtained by juicing fresh apples and pears. The fermentation process is as follows: mixing angelica extract with fruit juice → adjusting sugar and acid → alcoholic fermentation → acetic acid fermentation → angelica fruit vinegar → blending → angelica fruit vinegar beverage, which has antioxidant effects and helps maintain healthy blood lipid levels. Example 2

[0020] 10 parts Angelica sinensis fermentation stock solution, 30 parts fruit juice fermentation stock solution, 10 parts sucrose; Example 3

[0021] 10 parts Angelica sinensis fermentation stock solution, 50 parts Pite fruit juice fermentation stock solution, 10 parts sucrose; Example 4

[0022] 10 parts Angelica sinensis fermentation stock solution, 70 parts Beer fruit juice fermentation stock solution, and 10 parts sucrose.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, an angelica fruit vinegar beverage production device includes a preparation box 1. Blowing units 2 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the preparation box 1. A pressing unit 4 is movably connected to the upper end of the inner cavity of the preparation box 1. A power unit 3, fixedly connected to the top of the pressing unit 4, is abutted against the top of the preparation box 1. A placement plate 5 is movably sleeved on the middle of the preparation box 1. Feed baffles 6 are movably sleeved on both sides of the preparation box 1. Movable units 7, communicating with the inside of the blowing units 2, are fixedly installed on both sides of the top surface of the inner cavity of the pressing unit 4. A filtering unit 8, located directly below the placement plate 5, is movably connected to the lower end of the inner cavity of the preparation box 1. A pressing unit 9 is abutted against the middle of the bottom surface of the filtering unit 8. Pulling ropes 10, connected to the placement plate 5, are wound around both ends of the pressing unit 9. A toggle unit 11, fixedly connected to the preparation box 1, is movably connected to both sides of the top of the placement plate 5.

[0024] like Figure 4 As shown, the blowing unit 2 includes a blowing chamber 21 fixedly connected to the top of the preparation box 1 and a belt 24 located above the blowing chamber 21. Fans 22 are movably sleeved on both sides of the upper end of the blowing chamber 21. A rotating module 23 is connected to the central bearing at the top of the blowing chamber 21. The upper ends of the two fans 22 are connected to the rotating module 23 via the belt 24. The top of the rotating module 23 is engaged with the power unit 3. The interior of the blowing chamber 21 is connected to the interior of the movable unit 7. The rotating module 23 includes a roller connected to the bearing of the blowing chamber 21 and connected to the belt 24 for transmission. A worm gear engaged with the power unit 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the roller.

[0025] The above solution involves the cooperation of the blowing chamber 21 and belt 24. When the worm gear 32 starts to rotate, the worm wheel and roller of the rotating module 23 and the belt 24 will drive the two fans 22 to rotate inside the blowing chamber 21. At this time, the fans 22 will generate continuous airflow, which will enter the interior of the moving unit 7 through the blowing chamber 21. The moving unit 7 will then blow air onto the bottom of the pressure unit 4 to achieve a cleaning effect.

[0026] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 10 As shown, the power unit 3 includes a drive motor 31 fixedly connected to the top of the preparation box 1. One end of the output shaft of the drive motor 31 is fixedly connected to a worm gear 32 movably connected to the top of the preparation box 1. The middle part of the worm gear 32 is fixedly connected to a first cam 33 that abuts against the top of the pressing unit 4. Both the front and rear ends of the worm gear 32 are engaged with the blowing unit 2. The movable unit 7 includes a bellows 71 fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the preparation box 1. The bottom of the bellows 71 is fixedly connected to an air outlet bend 72 located outside the pressing unit 4. The bottom of the air outlet bend 72 is at the same horizontal line as the bottom of the pressing plate 42.

[0027] The above scheme is adopted: through the cooperation of the corrugated pipe 71 and the air outlet bend 72, two rows of corrugated pipe 71 and air outlet bend 72 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the transverse central axis of the preparation box 1. Each row of corrugated pipe 71 and air outlet bend 72 is set with five, and the bottom of the air outlet bend 72 corresponds to the staggered area of ​​the bottom of the pressure plate 42. The corrugated pipe 71 will ensure that the air outlet bend 72 can move with the movement of the pressure plate 42, ensuring the smooth operation of the air outlet bend 72. Through the cooperation of the drive motor 31 and the first cam 33, when the drive motor 31 starts to run, it will drive the first cam 33 through the worm gear 32 to intermittently squeeze and abut the top of the pressure unit 4, thereby breaking down the bottom of the pressure unit 4 and the angelica, thus improving the subsequent preparation and production effect of angelica fruit vinegar beverage.

[0028] like Figure 7 , Figure 12 As shown, the pressing unit 4 includes a pressing rod 41 that is movably connected to the upper end of the preparation box 1. A pressing plate 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressing rod 41. Spring telescopic tubes that are fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the preparation box 1 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the pressing plate 42. The two ends of the bottom surface of the pressing rod 41 are provided with bevels and are adapted to the toggle unit 11.

[0029] The above solution is adopted: through the cooperation of the pressure rod 41 and the pressure plate 42, when the power unit 3 intermittently pushes the top of the pressure rod 41 downward, the pressure rod 41 will drive the pressure plate 42 to crush the angelica below it. Through the cooperation of the spring extension tube at the top of the pressure plate 42, the stability of the pressure rod 41 and the pressure plate 42 during movement will be improved.

[0030] like Figure 13 As shown, the filter unit 8 includes a filter plate 81 that is movably connected to the inner wall of the preparation box 1 and is located directly below the placement plate 5. The four corners of the bottom surface of the filter plate 81 are fixedly installed with first spring telescopic cylinders 82 that are fixedly connected to the lower end of the inner cavity of the preparation box 1. The middle part of the bottom surface of the filter plate 81 is in contact with the contact unit 9.

[0031] The above solution is adopted: through the cooperation of the filter plate 81 and the first spring telescopic cylinder 82, when the contact unit 9 rotates, its top end will intermittently contact the filter plate 81, causing the filter plate 81 to move up and down. At this time, through the continuous shaking of the filter plate 81, the fragmented angelica residue and dust on its top can fall down, improving the cleanliness of the crushed angelica.

[0032] like Figure 9 As shown, the contact unit 9 includes a fixed rod 93 fixedly connected to the inside of the preparation box 1. A spring plate 92 is fixedly connected to the inside of one end of the fixed rod 93. A rotating shaft 91 connected to the bearing inside the preparation box 1 is fixedly connected to the inside of the spring plate 92. A second cam 94 that abuts against the bottom of the filter unit 8 is fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating shaft 91. Both ends of the rotating shaft 91 are connected to the pull rope 10.

[0033] Using the above solution: through the cooperation of structures such as the rotating shaft 91 and the second cam 94, the fixing rod 93 will limit and fix the rotation of the rotating shaft 91 and the second cam 94, and through the cooperation of the spring plate 92, it will reset the rotating shaft 91 after rotation. At the same time, when the rotating shaft 91 starts to rotate, it will drive the pulling rope 10 to move together. When the worker pulls the placement plate 5 outward, the placement plate 5 will drive the rotating shaft 91 and the second cam 94 to intermittently abut against the bottom of the filter plate 81 through the pulling rope 10, thereby improving the subsequent cleaning operation.

[0034] like Figure 8 , Figure 10 , Figure 11As shown, the actuating unit 11 includes a second spring telescopic cylinder 111 fixedly connected to the preparation box 1. The end of the second spring telescopic cylinder 111 near the pressing unit 4 is fixedly connected to an actuating plate 112 movably connected to the top of the placement plate 5. The top surface of the actuating plate 112 near the pressing unit 4 has an angle that matches the bottom surface of the pressing unit 4. The bottom of the pressing plate 42 is provided with several toothed plates, with the large end face of the toothed plates facing upward and the small end face facing downward. The middle area of ​​every two toothed plates corresponds to the opening at the bottom end of the air outlet bend 72.

[0035] The above solution utilizes the toothed plate at the bottom of the pressure plate 42 to ensure the crushing effect of the angelica root. Simultaneously, the correspondence between the toothed plate and the opening at the bottom of the air outlet bend 72 ensures that when angelica root impurities adhere to the outer wall of the teeth, the bottom of the air outlet bend 72 will blow away and clean the impurities and dust, thus guaranteeing the crushing effect of the pressure plate 42. Through the cooperation of the second spring telescopic cylinder 111 and the actuating plate 112, when the pressure plate 42 is pressed downwards, the angled sides of its bottom surface will interact with the actuating plate. The angled inner end of 112 abuts against the pressure plate, causing the actuating plate 112 to move outward. When the top of the pressure plate 42 is released from the pressure of the power unit 3, it will move upward through the spring telescopic tube. At this time, the actuating plate 112 will move inward through the elastic force of the second spring telescopic tube 111. The actuating plate 112 will push the crushed angelica inward near the inner wall of the pressure unit 4, preventing the angelica from moving outward after being crushed at the bottom of the pressure plate 42, thus reducing its overall thickness and resulting in poor crushing effect.

[0036] This application also proposes a method for preparing Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar beverage, the method of which is as follows: S1. Pull the two feed baffles 6 outward to release the sealing effect on the inside of the preparation box 1. Place the dried angelica stalks on top of the placement plate 5 and directly below the pressure plate 42. Push the feed baffles 6 again to seal the inside of the preparation box 1. S2. Start the drive motor 31. The drive motor 31 drives the first cam 33 through the worm gear 32 to intermittently abut the top of the pressure rod 41, so that the pressure rod 41 drives the pressure plate 42 to crush the blocky angelica. Through the design of the shape of the first cam 33, the bottom of the pressure plate 42 will intermittently crush the blocky angelica. S3. While the worm 32 is rotating, the two ends of its outer wall will cause the worm wheel at the top of the rotating module 23 to rotate. The worm wheel drives the roller to rotate, and the roller drives the fan 22 through the belt 24 to blow air inside the blowing chamber 21. The airflow will enter the interior of the bellows 71 through the preparation box 1, and then enter the interior of the air outlet bend 72 through the bellows 71. The air outlet bend 72 blows the outer wall of the adjacent teeth at the bottom of the pressure plate 42. At the same time, the pressure plate 42 will run synchronously with the bellows 71 and the air outlet bend 72. S4. When the pressing plate 42 moves downward to crush the lumpy Angelica sinensis, the deflecting plate 112 will come into contact with it during the downward movement. The deflecting plate 112 will move outward. Conversely, when the pressing plate 42 moves upward, the deflecting plate 112 will be subjected to the elastic force of the second spring telescopic cylinder 111 and move towards the side closer to the pressing unit 4. Thus, the movement of the deflecting plate 112 will push the Angelica sinensis against its inner wall, increasing its thickness. Whenever the pressing plate 42 moves upward, the deflecting plate 112 will push the Angelica sinensis. S5. After crushing the angelica, pull the placement plate 5 outward. The preparation box 1 will block the angelica above the placement plate 5, causing it to gradually fall to the top of the filter plate 81. As the placement plate 5 moves outward, it will drive the rotating shaft 91 to rotate through the pulling rope 10. When the rotating shaft 91 rotates, it intermittently abuts against the bottom of the filter plate 81 through the second cam 94, causing the filter plate 81 to move up and down intermittently. This cleans and filters the dust and impurities in the angelica on top of it. Then, pull the feed baffle 6 outward to push the crushed angelica on the top of the placement plate 5 and collect it.

[0037] It is important to note that there may be a state where only acetic acid fermentation has occurred without alcoholic fermentation. This needs to be tested, and the test method is as follows: DPPH scavenging rate determination: The procedure was strictly followed according to the instructions of the DPPH free radical scavenging rate test kit (microplate method), which was purchased from Shanghai Yuanye Biotechnology Co., Ltd. DPPH sample addition: Set up blank tube, sample test tube, and sample control tube. Add the solution in sequence, mix well, and let stand at room temperature in the dark for 30 minutes. The microplate reader should be turned on and preheated for at least 30 minutes, and zeroed by adjusting the anhydrous ethanol setting. Add 300 μL of each solution tube to a 96-well plate, measure the absorbance at 517 nm using an ELISA reader, and record the values ​​as A0, A1, and A2, respectively. Calculate the DPPH clearance rate. according to Figure 16 It can be seen that, Figure 16 Specifically, the diagram shows the usage and dosage of each reagent for DPPH free radical scavenging rate detection. Note: Figure 16The data in the middle section uses a multiple comparison method, with uppercase letters indicating P < 0.01 and lowercase letters indicating P < 0.05; according to Figure 18 It can be seen that, Figure 18 Specifically, the results of antioxidant activity and cholesterol concentration measurements for each implementation group and control group are provided. Note: Figure 18 The data in each group are the average values ​​of 6 parallel samples; Depend on Figure 18 It can be seen that, compared with the blank control group, the DPPH scavenging rate and total antioxidant capacity of experimental groups 1, 2 and 3 were all increased, indicating that the antioxidant capacity was significantly increased after Angelica sinensis was combined with fruit juice. Compared with the three experimental groups, the DPPH scavenging rate and total antioxidant capacity of experimental groups 1 and 3 were lower than those of experimental group 2, indicating that the antioxidant effect of experimental group 2 was the strongest. Control group 1, control group 2 and experimental group 2 constituted the fermentation process of Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar. Among them, the DPPH scavenging rate and total antioxidant capacity of experimental group 2 were increased, indicating that the antioxidant capacity of Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar was significantly increased after fermentation. The above results indicate that the combined fermentation of Angelica sinensis and fruit juice can enhance antioxidant activity, and the DPPH scavenging rate and total antioxidant capacity are the highest when the ratio of Angelica sinensis to fruit juice is 1:5 (experimental group 2), resulting in the best antioxidant effect.

[0038] Combination Figure 18 It can be seen that, compared with the blank control group, the cholesterol concentration of solutions in experimental groups 1, 2 and 3 decreased to varying degrees, and the cholesterol adsorption capacity increased. This indicates that the combination of Angelica sinensis and fruit juice can enhance the cholesterol adsorption capacity and has a certain effect on maintaining healthy blood lipid levels. Compared with the three experimental groups, experimental group 2 had the lowest cholesterol concentration and its cholesterol adsorption capacity was higher than that of experimental groups 1 and 3, showing the best effect, indicating that experimental group 2 had the best blood lipid regulation effect. Control group 1, control group 2 and experimental group 2 constituted the fermentation process of Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar. The results showed that the cholesterol adsorption capacity of Angelica sinensis fruit vinegar gradually increased during the fermentation process, and the effect was the best after the fermentation was completed. The above results indicate that the combined fermentation of Angelica sinensis and fruit juice enhances the cholesterol adsorption capacity, and the cholesterol adsorption capacity is best when the ratio of Angelica sinensis liquid to fruit juice is 1:5 (experimental group 2), which has the best effect on maintaining healthy blood lipid levels.
