Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of traditional Chinese medicine extracts, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine extraction device. Background Art
[0002] Chinese herbal medicine extracts are made from Chinese medicinal materials. They are raw materials rich in biologically active substances obtained after extraction, filtration and concentration. After being compounded with excipients, they can be made into Chinese medicines in different dosage forms such as granules, capsules, tablets, etc., which are convenient for carrying, taking and transportation.
[0003] In order to increase the content of bioactive substances in traditional Chinese medicine extracts, the extract is usually collected and subjected to extraction treatment; by extracting the bioactive substances in the extract and combining, collecting and concentrating the extracted extractants, a traditional Chinese medicine extract with a high content of bioactive substances can be obtained.
[0004] During the extraction process, in order to improve the contact effect between the extractant and the extracting liquid and thus improve the extraction effect, the mixed liquid of the extracting liquid and the extractant needs to be stirred. As the stirring extraction process proceeds, an emulsion layer is likely to appear in the mixed liquid; the presence of the emulsion layer will affect the smooth progress of the extraction process. When the emulsion layer separates into the extractant layer, the time and cost of subsequent concentration will be increased and the quality of the product will be affected; when the emulsion layer separates into the residual extraction phase, the problem of loss of biologically active substances is likely to occur, affecting the yield of the product.
[0005] It can be seen that providing an extraction device that can reduce the generation of an emulsified layer is of great significance to the industry. Summary of the invention
[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a Chinese medicine extraction device, specifically an extraction device provided with an extraction tank, a connecting ring, a telescopic device A and a telescopic device B. The extraction device has the advantages of reasonable design, strong practicality and convenient use. The extraction device can achieve the purpose of reducing the generation of emulsion layer and improving extraction efficiency.
[0007] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A Chinese medicine extraction device comprises an extraction tank, at least two connecting rings are sleeved on the outside of the extraction tank, and the connecting rings are rotatably connected to the extraction tank; The connecting ring is provided with a telescopic device A and a telescopic device B which are arranged opposite to each other. The travel track of the telescopic device A and the travel track of the telescopic device B are located on the same straight line, and the angle between the straight line and the horizontal plane is 40-60°; When the telescopic device A is in an extended state, the telescopic device B is in a contracted state; when the telescopic device A is in a contracted state, the telescopic device B is in an extended state; A fixing frame C is provided on the connecting ring, and a motor is provided on the fixing frame C. The output shaft of the motor is connected to one end surface of the extraction tank; when the motor is working, it can drive the extraction tank to rotate; When in use, the extracting liquid and the extracting agent are respectively put into the extraction tank, and the extraction tank is rotated to preliminarily mix the extracting liquid and the extracting agent; during the rotation of the extraction tank, the telescopic device A and the telescopic device B are started, and under the synergistic effect of the telescopic device A and the telescopic device B, the extraction tank is rotated and reciprocated at the same time; with the reciprocating motion of the extraction tank, the mixed liquid formed by the extracting liquid and the extracting agent reciprocates and hits the inner wall of the extraction tank, and the particle size of the droplets formed after the collision becomes smaller and continues to enter the mixed liquid, which effectively reduces the generation of the emulsion layer, and under the coordination of the reciprocating motion and the rotational motion, the mixed liquid near the axis more actively participates in the extraction process, thereby improving the extraction efficiency; in addition, as the extraction tank rotates, the droplets of the emulsion layer will gradually gather to the bottom of the extraction tank, effectively reducing the influence of the emulsion layer on the extraction process, ensuring the smooth progress of the extraction process, and improving the extraction efficiency.
[0008] Preferably, a groove is provided on the inner side surface of the connecting ring, and a ball is provided in the groove, and the ball contacts the outer side surface of the extraction tank; since the movement trajectory of the mixed liquid may be inconsistent during the reciprocating motion of the extraction tank, which may cause the extraction tank to have a slight axial displacement, the ball setting can avoid rigid friction between the extraction tank and the connecting ring while ensuring the rotation of the extraction tank, thereby extending the service life of the connecting ring and the extraction tank.
[0009] Preferably, a connecting buckle A is fixed to the free end of the telescopic device A, and a connecting buckle B is fixed to the free end of the telescopic device B; an arc-shaped through hole is provided on the side of the connecting ring, and the connecting buckle A and the connecting buckle B are respectively fixedly connected to the oppositely arranged through holes.
[0010] Preferably, the telescopic device A is fixed on the fixing frame A, the telescopic device B is fixed on the fixing frame B, and the fixing frame A and the fixing frame B are fixed on the same base.
[0011] Preferably, a spoiler rod is provided on the inner wall of the extraction tank, and the length of the spoiler rod is greater than the radius of the extraction tank and smaller than the diameter of the extraction tank; under the action of the spoiler rod, the mixed liquid can be further broken up, so that droplets with smaller particle size continue to enter the mixed liquid to participate in the extraction process, thereby improving the extraction efficiency and extraction effect.
[0012] Preferably, the spoiler rod is tilted, and the tilting direction is consistent with the rotation direction of the extraction tank; the spoiler rod is tilted, which can play a spoiler role on the one hand, and can produce a diversion effect on the other hand, which is conducive to the broken liquid to enter deeper into the mixed liquid, thereby improving the extraction efficiency.
[0013] Preferably, the tank body of the extraction tank is a hollow structure, the spoiler rod is a hollow structure, and the interior of the spoiler rod is connected to the interior of the tank body; cold medium or hot medium can be introduced as needed to control the temperature of the mixed liquid in the tank body, further reducing the generation of the emulsified layer.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the present invention is that: by sleeved a connecting ring on the outside of the extraction tank, and setting the connecting ring to be rotatably connected with the extraction tank, and connecting the connecting ring to the telescopic device A and the telescopic device B, the extraction tank can be rotated and reciprocated at a certain angle. During the reciprocating motion, the small-sized droplets formed by the collision of the mixed liquid and the extraction tank can better enter the mixed liquid to reduce the formation of an emulsion layer and improve the mixing uniformity, and the reciprocating liquid can drive the liquid close to the axis to actively participate in the extraction process, thereby improving the extraction efficiency. The above-mentioned arrangement makes the extraction device have the advantages of reasonable design, strong practicality and easy use. The use of the extraction device can achieve the purpose of reducing the formation of an emulsion layer to ensure the product yield and improve the extraction efficiency.
