Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of pulverization technology, and more particularly provides a new process method for preparing instant products by replacing special pulverization technologies such as freezing and low temperature to achieve fine pulverization of hard, easy to absorb moisture, and strong sticky and tough materials. Background Art

[0002] Medicinal materials such as donkey hide gelatin, deer antler glue, frankincense, myrrh, etc., contain proteins, polysaccharides, tannins, pectin, resins and other ingredients, and are tough, easy to absorb moisture and become sticky. In addition, they have low melting points and will soften (soften again) with increasing temperature. They are difficult to crush and dissolve. When preparing instant products, they need to be crushed into fine powders to increase the specific surface area in order to meet the requirements of instant dissolution.

[0003] The crushing operation is to use high-speed rotating toothed discs and cutters to cause high-speed collision and friction between materials and between materials and toothed disc cutters, breaking them into small particles to achieve the purpose of crushing. In conventional crushing, the heat generated by high-speed collision and friction will cause the material to heat up and soften (soften), which will seriously affect the crushing efficiency. At the same time, the high-speed rotating mechanical parts of the crushing equipment will stir the air, accelerate the contact between moisture in the air and the material, causing the material to absorb moisture and become sticky and agglomerate. Softening and rapid moisture absorption are the main reasons why tough, moisture-absorbing and sticky materials cannot be finely crushed by conventional crushing technology.

[0004] The prior art uses forced refrigeration to reduce the temperature, making the material brittle and hard, and realizes the crushing of such materials. For example, CN-112121085A (a crushing method for frankincense and maple resin in detumescence tablets) discloses a crushing method for frankincense and maple resin in detumescence tablets, which uses a liquid nitrogen low-temperature freezing pulverizer to crush frankincense and maple resin at about -20°C to prepare a pharmaceutical preparation composition. CN-1813852A (a freezing pulverization process for frankincense and myrrh) discloses a freezing pulverization process for frankincense and myrrh, eliminating the quality deterioration and softening and bonding problems of medicinal materials caused by temperature rise. CN-111892664A (a preparation method for saponin polysaccharide gum) discloses a preparation method for saponin polysaccharide gum, which uses low-temperature freezing pulverization technology to extract as much saponin polysaccharide gum as possible. CN-107520013A (a freezing pulverizer) discloses a freezing pulverizer, which makes the material brittle and hard by freezing and cooling, and crushes the material.

[0005] In principle, low-temperature crushing technology uses a compressor or liquid nitrogen to refrigerate the material, which greatly reduces the temperature of the material, making the material brittle and hard, solving the problem of tough texture and softening after crushing to a certain extent, and improving the crushing characteristics. However, these technical solutions do not solve another key influencing factor: the material becomes sticky due to moisture absorption. This trend is even amplified and accelerated. After years of research, the inventor believes that the huge temperature difference between the material and the ambient air caused by refrigeration causes the moisture in the air to condense on the surface of the material very easily, causing the material to become sticky again due to moisture absorption. Even after the treated environmental humidity conditions, this influencing factor cannot be completely eliminated. The condensation of environmental moisture caused by low temperature will always exist and affect the crushing.

[0006] The defects of the existing technology lead to very stringent requirements on environmental humidity and temperature conditions during the low-temperature pulverization process, the discharging process after pulverization, and the storage of materials. The equipment is expensive, energy-intensive, and can usually only produce kilograms of production, which seriously limits the industrial application of low-temperature pulverization technology. Summary of the invention

[0007] One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a method for producing an instant product.

[0008] A second object of the present invention is to provide a method for pulverizing a material.

[0009] This and other objects of the present invention will be further apparent from the following detailed description and illustration.

[0010] A method for producing an instant product of the present invention comprises the following production steps:

[0011] A. Clean the material to be crushed, grind it roughly, and then dry it;

[0012] B. Deep-fry the dried material for 1-2 minutes until the material is fluffy and crispy;

[0013] C. After deep frying, the material is crushed with oil;

[0014] D. Filter excess grease from the material, add dispersant (according to the mass ratio of material: dispersant = 1:0.5-2), and mix and disperse thoroughly;

[0015] E. The mixed material is subjected to supercritical extraction to completely remove the oil and fat in the process, and the material is obtained in a powder state. The fineness of the powder is 100-200 mesh. The supercritical extraction can be performed 1-10 times.

[0016] Furthermore, the production method of the instant product of the present invention comprises the following production steps:

[0017] A. Wash the material to be crushed, crush it roughly, and then dry it to make its water content less than 20%;

[0018] B. Fry the dried material in hot oil at 130-200℃ for 1-2 minutes until the material becomes fluffy and crispy;

[0019] C. Grind the oily materials fried to crispness with a homogenizer to a fineness of 50-120 mesh;

[0020] D. After grinding and crushing, filter out excess oil from the material. The oil content of the material is ≤2%. According to the product and solubility requirements, add dispersant to the oil-containing material at a mass ratio of material: dispersant = 1:0.5-2, and mix and disperse fully;

[0021] E. Add the mixed material into the extraction kettle, set the supercritical extraction parameters, and complete the deoiling operation, wherein:

[0022] The extraction pressure is 15-40MPa, the extraction temperature is 30-50°C, the fluid flow rate is 15-25 times the volume of the extraction kettle per hour, and the extraction time is 2-5 hours. The material in a micro powder state is obtained, and the fineness of the micro powder is 100-200 mesh. The supercritical extraction can be performed 3-10 times.

[0023] Preferably, the production method of the instant product of the present invention comprises the following production steps:

[0024] A. Wash the material to be crushed, crush it roughly, and then dry it to make its water content less than 20%;

[0025] B. After drying, fry the material in hot oil at 130-180℃ for 1-2 minutes until the material becomes fluffy and crispy;

[0026] C. Grind the oily materials fried to crispness with a homogenizer to a fineness of 70-110 mesh;

[0027] D. After grinding and crushing, filter out excess oil from the material. The oil content of the material is ≤1%. According to the product and solubility requirements, add dispersant to the crushed oily material at a mass ratio of material: dispersant = 1:0.5-2, and mix and disperse thoroughly;

[0028] E. Add the mixed material into the extraction kettle, set the supercritical extraction parameters, and complete the deoiling operation, where:

[0029] The extraction pressure is 20-40MPa, the extraction temperature is 35-50°C, the fluid flow rate is 15-25 times the volume of the extraction kettle per hour, and the extraction time is 3-4 hours. The material in a micro-powder state is obtained, and the fineness of the micro-powder is 100-200 mesh. The supercritical extraction can be performed 3-8 times.

[0030] In the production method of the instant product of the present invention, the dispersant is sucrose powder, starch or soluble dextrin, and one of them can be selected, or a mixture of two or all three can be selected.

[0031] In the production method of the instant product of the present invention, the frying oil can be edible vegetable oil such as soybean oil, peanut oil or corn germ oil.

[0032] In the production method of the instant product of the present invention, the material can be: Chinese medicines such as donkey-hide gelatin, deer antler glue, frankincense, myrrh, propolis and dragon's blood, or other hard edible products.

[0033] In the production method of the instant product of the present invention, when the material is donkey-hide gelatin or deer horn glue, edible refined vegetable oil such as soybean oil is selected, the oil temperature is 150-170° C., and the frying time is 0.5-1.5 minutes.

[0034] In the production method of the instant product of the present invention, when the material is frankincense or myrrh, edible refined vegetable oil such as corn germ oil is selected, the oil temperature is 140-160° C., and the frying time is 1.5-2.5 minutes.

[0035] In the production method of the instant product of the present invention, when edible refined vegetable oil such as soybean oil is used, the extraction pressure is 25-30MPa, the extraction temperature is 40-45°C, the fluid flow rate is 20 times the volume of the extraction kettle / hour, and the extraction time is 3 to 4 hours to complete the deoiling operation.

[0036] In the production method of the instant product of the present invention, when edible refined vegetable oil such as corn germ oil is used, the extraction pressure is 20-25MPa, the extraction temperature is 38-42°C, the fluid flow rate is 20 times the volume of the extraction kettle / hour, and the extraction time is 3 to 4 hours to complete the deoiling operation.

[0037] The technical route of the present invention is essentially different from the prior art. The present invention makes the material crispy by physical methods, effectively isolates the contact between environmental moisture and the material under the protection of the hydrophobic medium, eliminates the occurrence of moisture introduction during the pulverization process, and achieves the technical difficulty of fine pulverization of special materials under normal conditions, providing a new technical solution for preparing instant products with such materials.

[0038] Main innovations:

[0039] Innovation 1: Deep frying in hot oil: Deep frying makes the heat-stable and hard medicinal materials expand and crisp, changing the sticky and tough state of the medicinal materials and making them easier to crush.

[0040] Innovation 2: Crushing under oil protection conditions. When crushing, oil adheres to the surface of the material particles, isolating the air and preventing the material from contacting with moisture in the air, thus preventing the material from absorbing moisture and deliquescing, becoming sticky and soft.

[0041] The oil adheres to the surface of the material particles, effectively lubricating them and solving the problem that the material becomes soft and cannot be further crushed, thus achieving fine crushing of medicinal materials under normal environmental conditions.

[0042] Innovation point 3: Use of dispersant. After the material is crushed, sucrose powder, starch or soluble dextrin powder of a certain fineness (100-200 mesh) is added to the oil-protected material as a dispersant according to the product properties, and fully mixed and dispersed with the material powder to prevent the material powder from absorbing moisture and agglomerating again after de-oiling.

[0043] Innovation point 4: Supercritical extraction degreasing. Supercritical extraction is used to completely degrease the crushed materials, completely protecting the oil in the process, and achieving the micro-powder state of the medicinal materials after crushing under normal conditions.

[0044] The present invention provides a new process for finely crushing hard, hygroscopic, and sticky materials, and maintaining powder dispersion for a long time to prevent re-absorption of moisture and agglomeration, and preparing instant products. The problem that the material absorbs moisture and deliquesces, becomes sticky and soft when in contact with moisture in the air during the crushing process is solved by using a hydrophobic medium, and cannot be finely crushed under conventional conditions.

[0045] The present invention combines conventional technical operations to solve the problem of finely crushing special medicinal materials with hard texture, easy to absorb moisture, and sticky and tough materials under conventional conditions, and keeps the powder dispersed for a long time to prevent re-absorption of moisture and agglomeration. Through micronization and crushing, the product can be quickly dissolved and can be produced on a large scale in an industrial manner.

[0046] Common materials such as sucrose and dextrin can achieve the anti-caking effect that usually requires high molecular weight carrier dispersants such as polyethylene glycol and polyvinyl pyrrolidone.

[0047] The present invention is further described below by means of specific examples, which are only used for illustration and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0048] In the present invention, all amounts, parts and percentages are in mass units, and the equipment used are all commercially available products. Specific embodiments
