Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biopharmaceutical manufacturing, in particular to a pre-soaking device for alcohol-washed soybean protein. Background Art

[0002] Soy protein is a plant protein, and its amino acid composition is similar to that of milk protein. Except for a slightly lower content of methionine, the other essential amino acids are relatively rich, and it is a complete plant protein. In terms of nutritional value, it is equivalent to animal protein, and in terms of genetic structure, it is the closest to human amino acids, so it is the most nutritious plant protein. Soy protein has advantages that animal protein cannot match. Although soy protein contains very little methionine, it does not contain cholesterol. Its unique physiologically active substance, isoflavones, has the effect of lowering cholesterol.

The rotating shaft is used to drive the rotating disk to rotate synchronously through the sliding groove, and the rotating disk can freely rise and fall and slide on the outer wall of the rotating shaft;

[0009] The separation column is a conical column structure, the bottom end of the separation column is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating disk, the separation columns are distributed on the top of the rotating disk in an array with equal spacing, and a fixed sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating disk. The separation column is used to separate soybeans from each other and prevent accumulation.

[0010] Preferably, a bearing ring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing sleeve, a spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bearing ring, and a fixing ring is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the spring.

[0011] Preferably, a fixing block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing ring, the fixing block is a circular columnar structure, and the outer wall of the fixing block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing sleeve.

[0012] Preferably, the inner wall of the fixed block is slidably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, a trapezoidal push plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed sleeve, and inclined surfaces are formed on both sides of the outer wall of the trapezoidal push plate.

[0013] Preferably, the outer wall of the fixing block is fixedly connected with circular rods, the number of the circular rods is three, and the three circular rods are arranged in an equiproportionate array on the outer wall of the fixing block.

[0014] Preferably, a bubble tumbling mechanism is arranged inside the fixing sleeve, a sliding cavity is opened on the inner wall of the fixing sleeve, and an air groove is opened on the inner wall of the fixing block.

[0016] Preferably, the interior of the air outlet hole is communicated with the interior of the sliding cavity, the air groove is communicated with the air vent at the bottom of the infiltration barrel, and the air groove is communicated with the air outside the infiltration barrel through the air vent.

[0017] The present invention provides a pre-soaking device for alcohol-washed soybean protein, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. The present invention provides a supporting pre-soaking mechanism. When soybeans and solvent are added into the soaking barrel together, the soybeans will naturally enter between several separation columns on the rotating disk, so that each soybean is separated from each other, avoiding the problem that the soybeans are piled up on each other when entering the soaking barrel, resulting in insufficient contact area between the piled soybeans and the solvent, and causing poor pre-soaking effect. In addition, by providing several separation columns, each soybean can be arranged more neatly between each separation column, and the problem of soybean skin shedding caused by collision between soybeans due to stirring is avoided.

[0019] 2. The present invention sets a supporting pre-impregnation mechanism. When the rotating disk rotates, the separation column above is synchronously driven to rotate. When the separation column rotates, the soybeans between each separation column are fully in contact with the water inside the infiltration barrel during rotation, and then the soybeans at different positions are in contact and infiltrated with the solutions at different positions, which effectively prevents the problem of different infiltration degrees of the soybeans at different positions with the solvent due to solvent precipitation.

[0020] 3. The present invention separates large particles from small particles by setting up a supporting pre-impregnation mechanism, and provides space for each of them to be separated and placed separately, thereby avoiding the setting of separation columns of the same thickness, which causes smaller soybeans to fall to the bottom and still pile up on each other, while larger soybeans cannot enter the gaps between each separation column, resulting in the problem of still piling up and being unable to enter the separation column. Each soybean is separated individually as much as possible, so that it can be effectively combined with the solvent to prevent mutual squeezing and collision.

[0021] 4. The present invention sets a supporting pre-soaking mechanism, and the separation columns above the rotating disk lift the soybeans inside, thereby realizing the up and down vibration of the soybeans supported between the separation columns, allowing them to be more contacted and infiltrated with the solvent, and also pushing the solvent liquid up and down as a whole to make the upper and lower layers naturally surge to prevent the solvent from sinking to the bottom. At the same time, the rotating disk and the separation columns move back and forth up and down, and the soybeans stuck between each separation column and unable to fall due to squeezing are vibrated to a deep position where large beans cannot enter, thereby providing more space for soybean infiltration.

[0022] 5. The present invention sets a bubble tumbling mechanism to quickly squeeze out the air in the sliding cavity from the air outlet and form rapidly rising bubbles. The bubbles will move upward and touch the bottom of the soybeans, thereby disturbing the soybeans supported between the separation columns and causing them to move or flip to a certain extent, thereby adjusting the contact points between the soybeans supported on each separation column and between the separation columns, improving the change and movement of the contact surface between the soybeans and the separation columns, and then preventing the soybeans from always being pressed against the four surrounding separation columns at four positions, resulting in the inability of the positions to contact and infiltrate with the solvent. In addition, the rise of the bubbles is used to lift up the flocculants in the solvent that have sunk to the bottom, effectively reducing the sedimentation problem. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-4 The present invention provides a technical solution: a pre-soaking device for alcohol-washed soybean protein, comprising a soaking barrel 2, a supporting leg 1 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the soaking barrel 2, a vent hole is opened at the bottom of the soaking barrel 2, a supporting rod 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the soaking barrel 2, a motor 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the supporting rod 5, an opening and closing door is arranged on the front of the soaking barrel 2, and a supporting pre-soaking mechanism 3 is arranged inside the soaking barrel 2;

[0038] The supporting prepreg mechanism 3 comprises:

[0039] The rotating shaft 301 is a round rod-shaped structure. The outer wall of the rotating shaft 301 is slidably connected with the rotating disk 302 through a sliding groove. The rotating shaft 301 is used to drive the rotating disk 302 to rotate synchronously through the sliding groove, and the rotating disk 302 can freely rise and fall and slide on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 301;

[0040] The separation column 303 is a conical columnar structure. The bottom end of the separation column 303 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating disk 302. The separation columns 303 are distributed in an array with equal intervals on the top of the rotating disk 302. The bottom of the rotating disk 302 is fixedly connected with a fixed sleeve 311. The separation column 303 is used to separate the soybeans from each other and prevent them from piling up.

[0041] When in use, pour the soybeans directly into the soaking barrel 2, and add water and solvent to soak them. After soaking for a period of time, when the soybeans are completely wet, open the opening and closing door on the front of the soaking barrel 2 to take out all the soybeans, and the pre-soaking of the soybeans can be completed;

[0042] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1-9 On the basis of the first embodiment, the present invention provides a technical solution: the outer wall of the fixed sleeve 311 is fixedly connected with a bearing ring 305, the bottom of the bearing ring 305 is fixedly connected with a spring 306, and the bottom end of the spring 306 is fixedly connected with a fixing ring 307.

[0043] The inner wall of the fixing ring 307 is fixedly connected with a fixing block 304 . The fixing block 304 is a circular columnar structure. The outer wall of the fixing block 304 is slidably connected with the inner wall of the fixing sleeve 311 .

[0044] The inner wall of the fixed block 304 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 301 , and a trapezoidal push plate 309 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed sleeve 311 , and inclined surfaces 310 are formed on both sides of the outer wall of the trapezoidal push plate 309 .

[0045] The outer wall of the fixing block 304 is fixedly connected with a circular rod 308 . There are three circular rods 308 . The three circular rods 308 are arranged in an equiproportionate array on the outer wall of the fixing block 304 .

[0046] When the soybeans and the solvent are added into the soaking barrel 2 together, the soybeans will naturally enter between the several separation columns 303 on the rotating disk 302, so that each soybean is separated from each other, so as to avoid the soybeans piling up on each other when entering the soaking barrel 2, resulting in insufficient contact area between the accumulated soybeans and the solvent, and thus causing a poor pre-soaking effect. In addition, by providing several separation columns 303, each soybean can be arranged more neatly between each separation column 303, and the problem of soybean skin shedding caused by collision between soybeans due to stirring can be avoided.

[0047] At the same time, the motor 6 is started to control the rotation of the rotating shaft 301. When the rotating shaft 301 rotates, it drives the rotating disk 302 to rotate together. When the rotating disk 302 rotates, it synchronously drives the separation column 303 above to rotate together. When the separation column 303 rotates, the soybeans between each separation column 303 are fully in contact with the water inside the infiltration barrel 2 during rotation, and then the soybeans at different positions are in contact with and infiltrated with the solutions at different positions, effectively preventing the problem of different infiltration degrees of the soybeans at different positions with the solvent due to solvent precipitation;

[0048] The separation columns 303 are tapered and gradually become thinner from bottom to top. Therefore, when the soybeans fall into the gaps between each separation column 303 and are supported, the smaller soybeans will naturally fall to the gaps between the deeper separation columns 303, while the larger particles cannot fall and are stuck at the upper position, thereby separating the large particles from the small particles and giving them space to be separated and placed separately. This avoids the problem of setting separation columns 303 of the same thickness, which causes the smaller soybeans to fall to the bottom and still pile up, while the larger soybeans cannot enter the gaps between each separation column 303, resulting in the problem of still piling up and being unable to enter the separation columns 303. Each soybean is separated as much as possible, so that it can be effectively combined with the solvent to prevent mutual squeezing and collision.

[0049] When the rotating shaft 301 and the rotating disk 302 drive the separation column 303 to rotate, since the bottom of the rotating disk 302 is fixedly connected with the fixing sleeve 311, the rotating disk 302 will drive the fixing sleeve 311 to rotate synchronously. When the fixing sleeve 311 rotates, it will rotate with the trapezoidal push plate 309 below. The inclined surfaces 310 on both sides of the trapezoidal push plate 309 will be moved to the circular rod 308 during rotation. The circular rod 308 is fixed by the fixing block 304, and the fixing block 304 is fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the infiltration barrel 2. Therefore, when the trapezoidal push plate 309 contacts the circular rod 308, the trapezoidal push plate 309 will be squeezed along the inclined surface of the inclined surface 310, and the reverse push fixed sleeve 311 and the rotating disk 302 will rise vertically upward on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 301. The outer wall of the rotating shaft 301 and the inner wall of the rotating disk 302 are slidably connected by a sliding groove. The rotating shaft 301 can drive the rotating disk 302 to rotate, but the rotating disk 302 can also freely rise and fall on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 301, and under the elastic force of the spring 306, the trapezoidal push plate 309 passes over the circular rod 308. After the round rod 308 is released, the fixing sleeve 311 and the rotating disk 302 are pulled back to their original positions by the elastic force of the spring 306, so that the fixing sleeve 311 and the rotating disk 302 can be reciprocated and lifted. When the rotating disk 302 and the fixing sleeve 311 rotate back and forth, the trapezoidal push plate 309 will push the round rod 308 to push the fixing sleeve 311 and the rotating disk 302 to rise on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 301, and the separation column 303 above the rotating disk 302 can be used to support the internal soybeans to rise synchronously, thereby realizing the separation of the separation column 303. The up and down vibration of the supported soybeans allows them to be more fully contacted and soaked with the solvent. At the same time, the rotating disk 302 is pushed up and down as a whole, and the solvent liquid is pushed to make the upper and lower layers naturally surge to prevent the solvent from sinking to the bottom. At the same time, the rotating disk 302 and the separation column 303 move back and forth up and down, and the soybeans stuck between each separation column due to squeezing and being unable to fall are vibrated by this vibration mode, and the small grains of soybeans in them are shaken to a deep position where the large grains of beans cannot enter, thereby providing more space for the soybeans to be soaked;

[0050] When the fixed sleeve 311 is lifted and driven to rotate by the rotating disk 302, the bottom of the fixed sleeve 311 is rotatably connected to the top of the spring 306 through the bearing ring 305, so the rotation of the fixed sleeve 311 will not affect the lifting and rebounding effect of the spring 306;

[0051] Example 3: Please refer to Figure 1-13 On the basis of the first and second embodiments, the present invention provides a technical solution: a bubble tumbling mechanism 4 is arranged inside the fixed sleeve 311, a sliding cavity 401 is opened on the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 311, and an air groove 402 is opened on the inner wall of the fixed block 304.

[0052] The interior of the sliding cavity 401 is connected to the interior of the air groove 402 . An air outlet 403 is provided at the bottom of the rotating disk 302 . An air injection hole 404 is provided at the top of the rotating disk 302 . The interior of the air outlet 403 is connected to the interior of the air injection hole 404 .

[0053] The inside of the air outlet 403 is communicated with the inside of the sliding cavity 401 , the air groove 402 is communicated with the vent hole at the bottom of the infiltration barrel 2 , and the air groove 402 is communicated with the air outside the infiltration barrel 2 through the vent hole.

[0054] When the fixed sleeve 311 and the rotating disk 302 are lifted and lowered together, they will slide on the outer wall of the fixed block 304, and a closed sliding chamber 401 will be formed between the fixed sleeve 311 and the rotating disk 302 and the top of the fixed block 304. Therefore, when the rotating disk 302 and the fixed sleeve 311 are lowered, the air in the sliding chamber 401 will be squeezed and enter the air injection holes 404 inside the rotating disk 302 through the air outlet holes 403 at the bottom of the rotating disk 302, and then be ejected upward through the air injection holes 404. Each air injection hole 404 is located in the middle of the four separation columns 303, which is also the bottom position facing the soybean support, so that the air in the sliding chamber 401 is squeezed out from the air outlet holes 403 at the bottom of the rotating disk 302. 03 is quickly extruded and forms rapidly rising bubbles, which move upward and touch the bottom of the soybeans, thereby disturbing the soybeans supported between the separation columns 303 and causing them to move or flip to a certain extent, thereby adjusting the contact points between the soybeans supported between each separation column 303 and between the separation columns 303, and improving the change and movement of the contact surface between the soybeans and the separation columns 303, thereby preventing the soybeans from always being pressed against the four surrounding separation columns 303 at four positions, resulting in the problem that the positions cannot be contacted and infiltrated with the solvent, and utilizing the rise of the bubbles to lift up the flocculants in the solvent that have sunk to the bottom, effectively reducing the sedimentation problem;

[0055] When the fixed sleeve 311 rises, since the air groove 402 is connected to the air vent at the bottom of the infiltration barrel 2, the fixed sleeve 311 will draw the air outside the infiltration barrel 2 into the sliding chamber 401 through the air groove 402 and the air vent at the bottom of the infiltration barrel 2 when it rises, and the air groove 402 and the air outlet hole 403 are both one-way ventilation methods, so the air cannot flow back, so that when the fixed sleeve 311 is raised or lowered, the air outside the infiltration barrel 2 is continuously drawn into the sliding chamber 401 through the air groove 402, and then squeezed into the air outlet hole 403 and ejected from the jet hole 404, completing the gas circulation work.

[0056] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
