Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sea cucumber peptide production equipment, and in particular to a temperature-controllable pressurized heat treatment device for sea cucumber peptide production and processing. Background Art

[0002] Sea cucumber peptides refer to protein hydrolysates obtained by separation and purification of sea cucumbers after protease hydrolysis, which are mainly small molecule peptides and have multiple functional properties. They have good solubility, stability, emulsification and low viscosity. Their structure will not be destroyed by proteases and acidic and alkaline substances in the digestive system. They can be fully absorbed and utilized by the human body, so they have great application potential. Heating treatment is one of the common process steps in the production of sea cucumber peptides. By heating sea cucumbers, the release of peptides is promoted, their solubility is improved, or their biological activity is enhanced.

[0003] At present, the main methods of heating sea cucumbers are steam heating, hot water bath and microwave heating. Steam heating: easily leads to water loss and uneven temperature, which may destroy nutrients and consume a lot of energy; water bath heating: low heating efficiency, serious water loss, and difficult temperature control; microwave heating: uneven heating, which may cause local overheating, and will destroy some heat-sensitive components, and the equipment cost is high. In the document (application number: CN202123070725.2), a temperature-controllable pressurized heat treatment device for the production and processing of sea cucumber peptides is disclosed, including a tank body and legs, a group of legs are fixedly connected to the two ends of both sides of the bottom of the tank body, the top of the tank body is fixedly connected to a feeding port, and the top of the feeding port is movably connected to a cover body, a steam generator is provided on one side of the tank body, and a placement frame is provided inside the tank body. The device simply uses steam heating. Whether it is steam heating, hot water bath, or microwave heating, during the heating process, due to the chemical As the chemical reaction proceeds, the pH value of the heating liquid produced by heating sea cucumbers will change. Too low a pH value will cause the activity of certain enzymes (such as trypsin, pepsin, etc.) to decrease or become inactivated, affecting the hydrolysis effect of the peptide. In addition, overly acidic conditions may cause certain minerals in sea cucumbers (such as calcium, magnesium, etc.) to dissolve, affecting the nutritional components of the product; an alkaline environment will change the spatial structure of the protein in sea cucumbers, making the hydrolysis products of the peptides unstable, and may even cause the degradation of certain peptides or change their structure, leading to loss of activity. Therefore, a suitable pH value is particularly important for heating sea cucumber peptides. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and provide a temperature-controllable pressurized heat treatment device for the production and processing of sea cucumber peptides.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention specifically adopts the following technical solutions:

The sealing splints are provided with multiple groups of semicircular grooves on one side close to the elastic material bag, and the semicircular grooves are arranged corresponding to the negative pressure heads.

[0009] Furthermore, brackets are fixedly installed on both sides of the heating chamber, and two groups of linear slide rail modules are rotatably installed on the two groups of brackets respectively. A flip motor is fixedly installed on the left bracket, and the output shaft of the flip motor is connected to the left linear slide rail module.

The appropriate pH can promote the hydrolysis of protein and release more biologically active peptides, while also helping to maintain the stability of the peptides.

[0020] 3. The present invention stores acid and alkali in the bottom box, and the bottom box is also located in hot water, so the temperature of the acid and alkali is the same as the temperature of the sea cucumber, and the adjustment of the acid and alkali will not affect the heating temperature of the sea cucumber.

[0021] 4. The present invention controls the operation of the second cylinder, and the second cylinder drives the bottom box to descend. The bottom box stretches the elastic material bag through the supporting acid tube and the supporting alkali tube. At this time, it is convenient to store sea cucumbers in the elastic material bag, and the material discharge is convenient. After the heating is completed, the linear slide module drives the material rack away from the heating bin, and then controls the linear slide module to flip, and the linear slide module drives the material rack to rotate to the horizontal. Then the second cylinder drives the bottom box to rise, and the bottom box drives the supporting acid tube and the supporting alkali tube to turn over the elastic material bag, and automatically pushes the sea cucumbers in the elastic material bag out, which is convenient for material discharge and has high processing efficiency.

[0030] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0031] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, a temperature-controllable pressurized heat treatment device for the production and processing of sea cucumber peptides comprises a heating chamber 1, a heater 11 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the heating chamber 1, a temperature sensor 12 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the heating chamber 1, two sets of linear slide rail modules 14 are rotatably installed on the top of the heating chamber 1, a material rack 2 is installed between the two sets of linear slide rail modules 14, a plurality of material ports 21 are opened at the bottom of the material rack 2, and an elastic material bag 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the material port 21;

[0032] A first air cylinder 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the material rack 2, a negative pressure plate 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the telescopic end of the first air cylinder 3, a plurality of negative pressure heads 41 are arranged at the bottom of the negative pressure plate 4, the negative pressure heads 41 are designed corresponding to the material port 21, a pH detection probe 42 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the negative pressure head 41, a second air cylinder 5 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the material rack 2, a bottom box 6 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the telescopic end of the second air cylinder 5, an acid chamber 61 and an alkaline chamber 62 are provided inside the bottom box 6, an acid support tube 63 and an alkali support tube 64 are fixedly installed on the top of the bottom box 6, the acid chamber 61 is connected to the elastic material bag 22 through the acid support tube 63, the alkaline chamber 62 is connected to the elastic material bag 22 through the alkali support tube 64, and solenoid valves 66 are fixedly installed inside the acid support tube 63 and the alkali support tube 64;

[0033] The front and back sides of the bottom of the material rack 2 are fixedly mounted with a clamping cylinder 7, and the telescopic end of the clamping cylinder 7 is fixedly mounted with a sealing splint 8. The sealing splint 8 has multiple groups of semicircular grooves 81 on one side close to the elastic material bag 22, and the semicircular grooves 81 are arranged corresponding to the negative pressure head 41.

[0034] When in use, the initial state of the device is as follows Figure 1 In the state shown, the elastic material bag 22 is in a stretched state, and there is enough storage space inside. Then, the enzymolyzed sea cucumbers are sequentially placed into the elastic material bag 22 through the material port 21. Then, the first cylinder 3 is controlled to operate, and the first cylinder 3 drives the negative pressure plate 4 to descend. The negative pressure plate 4 drives the negative pressure head 41 and the pH detection probe 42 to be inserted into the elastic material bag 22. Then, the clamping cylinder 7 is controlled to operate, and the clamping cylinder 7 drives the two sets of sealing splints 8 to close together. The two sets of sealing splints 8 seal the elastic material bag 22, and the negative pressure head 41 is sealed in the elastic material bag 22. The negative pressure head 41 is clamped in the semicircular groove 81. The external negative pressure device causes the negative pressure head 41 to inhale, and the negative pressure head 41 sucks the elastic material bag 22 into a vacuum. Finally, the linear slide rail module 14 drives the material rack 2 to descend, and the material rack 2 drives the elastic material bag 22 and the bottom box 6 to descend into the heating bin 1, and the sea cucumbers are heated in a vacuum water bath. The heating temperature is controlled at 40-60°C through feedback from the temperature sensor 12.

[0035] During the heating process, cooking liquid is generated. Due to the chemical reaction, the pH value of the cooking liquid will change. The pH detection probe 42 constantly detects the pH value of the cooking liquid in the elastic material bag 22. When the pH value is unqualified, the second cylinder 5 is controlled to operate first, and the second cylinder 5 drives the bottom box 6 to descend relative to the material rack 2. The bottom box 6 stretches the elastic material bag 22 through the supporting acid tube 63 and the supporting alkali tube 64, so that there is a certain vacuum space in the elastic material bag 22, and then the corresponding solenoid valve 66 is controlled to open. Since the air pressure in the elastic material bag 22 is much smaller than the air pressure in the acid chamber 61 and the alkaline chamber 62, the acid or alkali can be automatically pressed into the elastic material bag 22 under the action of the air pressure. After the amount of acid and alkali in the elastic material bag 22 is sufficient, the solenoid valve 66 is closed, and then the second cylinder 5 is controlled to rise quickly, and the elastic material bag 22 is quickly restored. The elastic material bag 22 ejects the acid or alkali added at the bottom into the sea cucumber. The number of slow stretching and rapid recovery of the elastic material bag 22 is generally set to 3 times. Through multiple stretching and rebounding, it can be ensured that the acid and alkali can be evenly mixed in the sea cucumber, and then the negative pressure head 41 is controlled to inhale again, so that the elastic material bag 22 forms a vacuum again, and the pH adjustment effect is good. At the same time, because the bottom box 6 is located in the heating chamber 1 and heated in a water bath together with the sea cucumber, the acid and alkali temperature in the bottom box 6 is the same as the sea cucumber temperature, and the sea cucumber temperature will not be affected when the pH is adjusted;

[0036] After heating is completed, the linear slide module 14 drives the material rack 2 to rise, the material rack 2 drives the elastic material bag 22 away from the heating chamber 1, the clamping cylinder 7 drives the sealing splint 8 away from the elastic material bag 22, the elastic material bag 22 opens, and the first cylinder 3 drives the negative pressure plate 4 to rise, the negative pressure plate 4 drives the negative pressure head 41 away from the elastic material bag 22, and then controls the linear slide module 14 to rotate, the linear slide module 14 drives the material rack 2 to rotate, the material port 21 gradually rotates to obliquely downward, and the sea cucumber is poured into the collection tank, and then the second cylinder 5 is controlled to operate, the second cylinder 5 drives the bottom box 6 to approach the material rack 2, and the bottom box 6 turns over the elastic material bag 22 through the supporting acid tube 63 and the supporting alkali tube 64, completely dumps the sea cucumber, and facilitates the cleaning of the elastic material bag 22, with high processing efficiency.

Silica gel can fully adapt to weak acid and weak base environments.

[0040] Embodiment 4, based on the above embodiment, further includes that an extension rod is arranged between the pH detection probe 42 and the negative pressure head 41.
