Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a collagen peptide production technology, and in particular to an enzymatic hydrolysis device for collagen peptide production. Background Art

[0002] Collagen peptides are a type of low-molecular-weight product that is extracted, hydrolyzed, and refined from collagen-rich animal tissues. It has multiple functions such as anti-oxidation, anti-aging, disease inhibition, whitening, liver repair, skin quality improvement, and immunity enhancement. It is an important substance for maintaining skin health and promoting body nutrient absorption. The enzymatic hydrolysis device for collagen peptide production mainly includes an enzymatic hydrolysis reaction tank and a power assembly, which can quickly and evenly heat the collagen peptide raw material, and accurately control the temperature to improve the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency and product quality.

[0003] Since collagen peptides can be completely dissolved in water, when performing enzymatic hydrolysis, the collagen peptide raw material and the protease need to be simultaneously added to the interior of the reaction tank for stirring.

[0004] In the Chinese invention patent with publication number CN116970486B, an enzymatic hydrolysis device for collagen peptide production is disclosed. In the enzymatic hydrolysis device for collagen peptide production, the flow guide component can rely on the drive of the motor to limit the collagen peptide raw material injected into the preheating component to a fixed time and then automatically flow toward the bottom. Therefore, the collagen peptide raw material injected into the interior at any time can be subjected to the same heating time and can flow to the bottom for insulation treatment, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature control, and the process will not be affected by the difference in manual injection time. In the power assembly, a defoaming mechanism is installed at the bottom of the drive shaft. The defoaming mechanism rotates with the drive shaft, and the end cooperates with the annular rack on the inner wall of the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction tank to drive the entire rotating sleeve to rotate, and then a large number of raised pins are used on the surface of the collagen peptide raw material solution accumulated at the bottom to eliminate the generated foam.

[0005] When the existing equipment is in use, insufficient or excessive enzyme dosage will have a significant impact on the reaction effect and the quality of the final product. When it is insufficient, the enzyme's active sites are insufficient, resulting in a lower substrate conversion rate and a longer reaction time. When it is excessive, it may lead to excessive hydrolysis of the substrate and the production of unnecessary by-products. At the same time, after addition, the reactant concentration in some areas is too high, while the concentration in other areas may be insufficient, resulting in a lower overall reaction rate. In addition, the bubbles and foam generated during the reaction may affect the reaction efficiency and interfere with the subsequent separation and purification process. Therefore, an enzymatic hydrolysis device for collagen peptide production has been developed. Summary of the invention

[0039] Example: See Figure 1-Figure 9 An enzymatic hydrolysis device for collagen peptide production includes a reactor 1, a fixing ring 11 is provided on the outer surface of the reactor 1, a positioning rod 12 is provided on the outer surface of the fixing ring 11, a delivery component 2 is provided at the end of the positioning rod 12, and the lower end of the delivery component 2 penetrates and extends to the inner cavity of the reactor 1, and the enzyme dosage is quantitatively delivered through the delivery component 2.

[0040] In this solution, a device with power output such as a motor is provided at the lower end of the fixed ring 11 and is connected to an external control device. A gear ring is provided on the outer surface of the cylinder 21, and a transmission gear is provided at the output end of the motor. The outer surface of the transmission gear is meshed with the outer surface of the gear ring, wherein when the motor is started, the entire delivery assembly 2 can be synchronously driven to rotate.

[0041] Furthermore, the delivery component 2 includes a cylinder 21 connected to the positioning rod 12, a protective cylinder 22 is arranged at the middle position of the upper end of the inner cavity of the cylinder 21, a driving member 23 is arranged at the lower end of the inner cavity of the protective cylinder 22, a fixed block 231 is arranged at the upper end of the driving member 23, one side of the fixed block 231 is connected to the inner wall of the protective cylinder 22, and the output end of the driving member 23 passes through and extends to the other end of the fixed block 231.

[0042] In this embodiment, the driving member 23 is a device with a telescopic function such as an electric telescopic rod, and is connected to an external control device. When the driving member 23 is started, it synchronously drives the movable rod 24 arranged at its end to move.

[0043] Furthermore, a guide block 25 is provided at the end of the fixing block 231 , a clamping block 26 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the guide block 25 , and a sphere 261 is fitted on the end of the clamping block 26 .

[0044] Specifically, a guide groove is provided at the end of the guide block 25, and the inner wall of the guide groove is slidably connected to the outer surface of the clamping block 26. At the same time, the moving trajectory of the clamping block 26 is limited by the guide groove, so that the clamping block 26 will not fall off when it moves.

[0045] The end of the clamp block 26 is arc-shaped, and the end of the clamp block 26 and the outer surface of the sphere 261 are both covered with rubber or other sealing components, so that the stability of the sphere 261 is guaranteed when the sphere 261 is fitted with the clamp block 26.

[0046] Furthermore, a movable rod 24 is provided at the output end of the driving member 23, a slider 27 is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the movable rod 24, a first limiting rod 28 is rotatably mounted on the outer surface of the slider 27, an end of the first limiting rod 28 away from the slider 27 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the fixed block 231, and a second limiting rod 29 is rotatably mounted on an end of the slider 27 away from the first limiting rod 28, and an end of the second limiting rod 29 away from the slider 27 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the clamping block 26. The cross sections of the guide block 25 and the clamping block 26 are both L-shaped.

[0047] Specifically, when the movable rod 24 moves, the slider 27 slidably installed on its outer surface is synchronously driven to move. Since the first limiting rod 28 and the second limiting rod 29 are rotatably installed on the outer surface of the slider 27, and the first limiting rod 28 is rotatably connected to the fixed block 231, when the slider 27 moves upward, the first limiting rod 28 rotates around the connection with the fixed block 231, and pushes the slider 27 to move toward the middle direction on the movable rod 24.

[0048] When the slider 27 moves toward the middle, it synchronously drives the second limiting rod 29 installed at its end to move. Since the end of the second limiting rod 29 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the clamping block 26, when the slider 27 moves, the second limiting rod 29 pushes the clamping block 26 to move along the direction defined by the guide block 25, thereby realizing the clamping of the sphere 261. The arc-shaped part at the end of the clamping block 26 is rotatably connected to the whole, and the rotation angle can be freely adjusted to make it suitable for the current scene.

[0049] The end of the clamp 26 is located at the lower end of the center of the sphere 261, so that when the clamp 26 moves toward the middle, it squeezes the sphere 261 and moves the sphere 261 upward, so that the sphere 261 is separated from the through hole 211, which facilitates the delivery of the enzyme dose into the reactor 1.

[0050] Furthermore, the lower end of the cylinder 21 is semicircular, and the lower end of the inner wall of the cylinder 21 is in contact with the outer surface of the sphere 261 . A through hole 211 is formed at the lower end of the cylinder 21 .

[0051] Specifically, the enzyme dosage is introduced into the reactor 1 through the through hole 211 , and the through hole 211 is sealed with the sphere 261 .

[0052] Furthermore, a cleaning component 3 is assembled at the lower end of the delivery component 2, and the enzyme dosage is preliminarily dispersed by the cleaning component 3 during delivery, and the bubbles generated during the reaction are subsequently removed. The cleaning component 3 includes a docking block 31 connected to the reactor 1, and a plurality of support columns 32 are arranged at the lower end of the docking block 31, and the plurality of support columns 32 are evenly distributed at the lower end of the docking block 31. A bottom plate 33 is arranged at the lower end of the support column 32, and a fixing column 36 is arranged at the middle position of the upper end of the bottom plate 33, and a hole 361 is opened through the end of the fixing column 36, and the hole 361 is connected to the through hole 211.

[0053] In this embodiment, when the delivery component 2 rotates as a whole, the cleaning component 3 connected thereto is synchronously driven to rotate, thereby shaking the enzyme dosage just delivered to the same position, dispersing it to other positions, and cooperating with the stirring device inside the reactor 1 to mix the enzyme dosage together.

[0054] The enzyme dosage inside the through hole 211 is introduced into the reaction vessel 1 through the hole 361 .

[0055] Furthermore, a ring 35 is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the fixed column 36, and a rotating block 37 corresponding to the supporting column 32 is provided on the outer surface of the ring 35, and the rotating block 37 is respectively located between the two supporting columns 32. A telescopic member 34 is provided at the upper end of the bottom plate 33 and located on one side of the supporting column 32, and the output end of the telescopic member 34 is connected to the lower end of the ring 35.

[0056] Specifically, the telescopic member 34 is a component with a telescopic function such as an electric telescopic rod, and is connected to an external control device. When the telescopic member 34 is started, it synchronously drives the ring 35 set at its end to move, wherein the ring 35 is limited by a fixed column 36 so that the ring 35 will not fall off when moving; when the ring 35 moves, it drives the rotating block 37 set on its outer surface to move synchronously.

[0057] Furthermore, a transmission rod 38 is rotatably mounted on one end of the rotating block 37 away from the ring 35, and a connecting block 39 is rotatably mounted on one end of the transmission rod 38 away from the rotating block 37. A protective rod 391 is rotatably mounted on one side of the connecting block 39, and an end of the protective rod 391 away from the connecting block 39 is connected to the outer surface of the fixed column 36.

[0058] Specifically, when the rotating block 37 moves, the transmission rod 38 installed at the end thereof is driven to move. Since the transmission rod 38 is rotatably connected to the connecting block 39 , the connecting block 39 is rotated around the protective rod 391 .

[0059] Furthermore, a flip plate 392 is provided at one end of the connection block 39 away from the protection rod 391. A plurality of groups of protrusions 393 are evenly provided at the lower end of the flip plate 392.

[0060] Specifically, when the connecting block 39 rotates, the flip plate 392 is synchronously driven to rotate until it reaches the optimal angle and stops, and then cooperates with the protrusion 393 to remove the bubbles on the surface, thereby improving the reaction efficiency without interfering with the subsequent separation and purification process.

[0061] The control device can select a single-chip microcomputer as the control end. In this embodiment, the single-chip microcomputer is a typical embedded microcontroller (Micro controller Unit), which is composed of an arithmetic unit, a controller, a memory, an input and output device, etc., which is equivalent to a microcomputer. Compared with the general-purpose microprocessor used in personal computers, it emphasizes self-supply (no external hardware) and cost saving. Its biggest advantage is that it is small in size and can be placed inside the instrument, but has a small storage capacity, a simple input and output interface, and low functional consumption.

[0062] The above description is only by way of illustration of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
