Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of konjac glucomannan oligosaccharide preparation, in particular to an ethanol precipitation separation device based on the konjac glucomannan oligosaccharide preparation process. Background Art

[0002] Glucomannan oligosaccharide has the characteristics of low caloric value, low sweetness, no dental caries, no increase in blood sugar concentration, etc., and can be used for the diet regulation of diabetic patients, and glucomannan oligosaccharide can usually be extracted from konjac. The principle of extraction is to add konjac glucomannan solution into a reaction vessel, and slowly and appropriately add ethanol through an ethanol adding device. Under the action of ethanol, the solubility of konjac glucomannan oligosaccharide is reduced and precipitated from the solution. In order to improve the efficiency of ethanol promoting the precipitation of konjac glucomannan solution, a stirring structure is also utilized to fully mix ethanol with the solution, thereby accelerating the formation of precipitation. After precipitation is completed, a precipitation separation component is utilized to separate the precipitation from the supernatant to obtain the crude product of konjac glucomannan oligosaccharide.

[0003] A water-soluble dietary fiber ethanol precipitation and separation device is described in a public technical document (CN209152278U). In this scheme, water-soluble dietary fiber (konjac glucomannan in konjac glucomannan solution belongs to water-soluble dietary fiber) is added into a stirring structure from a feeding port, and then ethanol is added into the stirring structure from the feeding port, and a motor is started, and a rotating shaft is driven by the motor to rotate, and the rotating shaft drives a precipitation separation box body to rotate, and the precipitation separation box body drives a rotating rod to rotate, and a stirring blade on the rotating rod rotates the mixture of water-soluble dietary fiber and ethanol in a rotating hopper. Stirring, allowing both to fully react, until precipitation is precipitated in the solution, turning off the motor, opening the valve, the water-soluble dietary fiber and ethanol mixture in the rotating hopper flows into the rotating rod from the two leakage holes on the rotating rod, and flows into the filter through the rotating rod. At this time, the motor is turned on again, and the motor drives the precipitation separation box body to rotate through the rotating shaft. The solution is quickly driven to rotate at the same speed as the precipitation separation box body. Under the action of centrifugal force, solid particles settle to the inner wall of the filter to form sediment, and the solution flows into the bottom of the precipitation separation box body through the filter screens on both sides, thereby completing solid-liquid separation. While opening the valve to pass the reacted solution into the filter, water-soluble dietary fiber and ethanol can also be added to the stirring structure. At this time, the motor is started. Since the stirring structure and the precipitation separation structure are both rotated by the rotating rod and driven by a single shaft, the new water-soluble dietary fiber and ethanol are stirred while the solution is being separated into solid and liquid, so that they can fully react. In this way, time can be fully utilized, and stirring and mixing reactions can be carried out while precipitation separation is carried out;

[0004] However, in the above scheme, since the capacity in the filter is limited, it is necessary to discharge the mixed solution intermittently by opening and closing the valve, and after the mixed solution is discharged, the motor is started again, so as to realize stirring and mixing and centrifugal separation at the same time, but when the above two effects are carried out simultaneously, the motor needs to be frequently paused and restarted during the period, and the valve needs to be opened and closed again in the gap when the motor is paused, and its operation method is very cumbersome. And if the water-soluble dietary fiber is not fully mixed with ethanol, the precipitate will not be completely separated out, and the mixed solution is discharged into the filter at this time, and the precipitate that can be obtained is not much; if the water-soluble dietary fiber is fully mixed with ethanol, the precipitate is completely separated out, and there is no need to control the intermittent opening and closing of the valve at this time, and the mixed solution only needs to be slowly flowed into the inside of the filter for centrifugal separation, so the existing technical scheme can not effectively improve the separation effect of the precipitate.

[0049] According to the point-slope equation: y-y1=k(x-x1), where y is the speed S, and x is the value P obtained by the pressure sensor after conversion by the analog-to-digital converter. adc , x1=P min ,y1=S min ;

[0050] It can be deduced that: S = S min +k×(P adc -P min );

[0051] Substituting k into the above formula, we get:

[0052] When the pressure sensor is subjected to a large pressure, the output analog voltage V sensor The value of will increase, so that P adc The value of k and S increases. minThe value of is constant, so the speed S of the motor 8 will increase, so that when the pressure sensor is subjected to a greater pressure, the output speed of the motor 8 can be greater.

[0057] During the discharge process, the connecting plate 29 is pushed upward by the cylinder push rod 30, and the hollow plunger 26 can be moved upward through the optical axis 27, thereby releasing the through groove 25, and the mixed solution can enter the interior of the column 6 through the through groove 25, and finally be discharged along the bypass pipe 34. When the output end of the cylinder push rod 30 pushes the connecting plate 29 upward, the greater the pushing distance, the greater the elastic pressure applied by the spring 28, thereby increasing the output speed of the motor 8, and the rotation speed of the column 6 with the bottom support plate 4 and the top cover plate 5 can be increased. After the rotation speed of the bottom support plate 4 and the top cover plate 5 increases, the centrifugal force on the mixed solution inside the two can be increased. Under the action of the centrifugal force, the liquid in the mixed solution will be filtered out by the filter paper 14, and the precipitate will adhere to the surface of the filter paper 14, thereby achieving effective separation of the precipitate;

[0058] When the gear differential 9 rotates rapidly following the bottom support plate 4, since the input end of the gear differential 9 is fixed to the liquid accumulation barrel 2, its output end can be driven by the first gear 16 meshing with the transmission belt 15, so that the annular mesh belt 11 can move with the filter paper 14, and the arc-shaped extension portion 23 can scrape and collect the sediment adhering to the surface of the filter paper 14, and gather it inside the arc-shaped column shell 20. Since the second rotating shaft 19 rotates with the spiral conveying blade 21 at the same time, the spiral conveying blade 21 can convey the gathered sediment through the discharge hole 22 to the inside of the receiving box 10. In this way, the sediment on the surface of the filter paper 14 can be automatically collected, and the accumulation of a large amount of sediment on the surface of the filter paper 14 can be avoided, thereby reducing the filtering effect of the filter paper 14.
