Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of royal jelly production, and specifically to a royal jelly extraction device. Background Art

[0002] In the process of royal jelly production, it is necessary to take out the royal jelly from the honeycomb of bees. Currently, the extraction of royal jelly mainly involves manually digging out the royal jelly from the honeycomb of bees one by one. Such an extraction method has a slow extraction speed and a large workload for the operators. At present, there is also a method of putting the honeycomb of bees into an extractor and rotating the honeycomb of bees at a high speed, so that the royal jelly in the honeycomb is thrown out under the action of centrifugal force and collected in the extractor. However, since royal jelly is in a viscous state at room temperature, when the royal jelly is thrown out at a high speed, it is easy to adhere to the extractor. As the royal jelly is continuously extracted, the royal jelly accumulates continuously in the extractor. Since the viscous royal jelly is not easy to flow out of the extractor, when the royal jelly accumulated in the extractor is too much and affects the rotation of the honeycomb of bees, it has a greater impact on the extraction efficiency of royal jelly. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a royal jelly extraction device to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art.

[0004] According to a royal jelly extraction device of the present invention, it includes a collection cylinder. The lower end of the collection cylinder contracts towards the direction close to its axis. The inside of the collection cylinder is hollow to form a collection cavity. The upper end of the collection cavity is open. A rotating frame for placing the honeycomb of bees is rotatably connected inside the collection cavity. The lower end surface of the collection cylinder is fixedly provided with a discharge pipe communicated with the collection cavity. A sealing plug is fitted inside the discharge pipe. A heat preservation cover is arranged outside the collection cylinder. A sealed water storage cavity is formed between the heat preservation cover and the outer surface of the collection cylinder. Two threaded connection pipes communicated with the water storage cavity are fixedly provided on the upper end surface of the heat preservation cover. Liquid water at 45°C - 48°C circulates in the water storage cavity.

[0005] Through the above technical solution, the hot water circulating in the water storage cavity heats the collection cylinder. The honeycomb of bees rotates with the rotating frame, so that the royal jelly in the honeycomb of bees is separated from the honeycomb under the action of centrifugal force and flows into the collection cavity, and is collected in the collection cavity. The temperature of the collection cylinder rises under the action of the hot water, thereby increasing the fluidity of the royal jelly, further reducing the residue of the royal jelly in the collection cavity, and accelerating the collection efficiency of the royal jelly.

[0006] Preferably, the peripheral wall of the heat preservation cover is hollow inside, and the peripheral wall of the heat preservation cover forms a double-layer structure.

[0007] Through the above technical solution, the peripheral wall of the double-layer structure heat preservation cover can effectively improve the heat preservation performance of the heat preservation cover and reduce the loss of the water flow temperature in the water storage cavity.

[0008] Preferably, the rotating frame includes a central cylinder. An upper fixing frame and a lower fixing frame are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the central cylinder. A plurality of upper connecting rods are fixed between the upper fixing frame and the outer periphery of the central cylinder, and a plurality of lower connecting rods are fixed between the lower fixing frame and the outer periphery of the central cylinder. A plurality of placing frames circumferentially distributed with the central cylinder as the center are fixedly connected to the upper fixing frame. The honeycomb frames are placed in the placing frames, and the placing frames rotate together with the central cylinder.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the placing frame is used to place the honeycomb frames, so that the honeycomb frames remain stable during the rotation with the central cylinder.

[0010] Preferably, the placing frame includes a limiting sleeve, a bottom rod and two placing rods. The limiting sleeve is fixed on the upper fixing frame, the bottom rod is fixed on the lower fixing frame, the placing rods are in a "U" shape, the two placing rods are symmetrically arranged, the upper ends of the placing rods are fixedly connected to the limiting sleeve, the lower ends of the placing rods are fixedly connected to the limiting ring, a box-shaped limiting ring is arranged on the upper side of the bottom rod, the limiting ring is sleeved outside the two placing rods and fixedly connected to the two placing rods, and the upper side surface of the bottom rod is an arc surface.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the placing rods in a "U" shape are used to support the honeycomb frames, the limiting ring restricts the honeycomb frames within the placing rods, the bottom rod supports the honeycomb frames, and its arc-shaped upper side surface can reduce the residue of royal jelly on it. Preferably, a fixed collar is fixed on the inner wall of the central cylinder near its lower end. A rotating collar is rotatably connected within the fixed collar. A hexagonal through hole penetrating along its thickness is opened in the rotating collar. A support platform is fixedly arranged on the bottom wall of the collection chamber. The support platform is in a frustum shape. A top column is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the support platform. The diameter of the top column is smaller than the inner diameter of the central cylinder. A top block is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the top column. The cross section of the top block is the same as the cross section of the hexagonal through hole in the rotating collar. The height of the top column is greater than the distance between the lower end surface of the fixed collar and the lower end surface of the central cylinder.

[0012] Through the above technical solution, when the top block is embedded in the hexagonal through hole on the rotating collar, the top column supports the central cylinder, so that the honeycomb frames are away from the bottom wall of the collection chamber.

[0013] Preferably, a support plate is arranged on the upper side of the heat preservation cover. A plurality of cavities are opened on the upper end surface of the support plate. Two symmetrical bayonets are opened on the outer periphery of the support plate. The two threaded connecting pipes can be respectively embedded in the two bayonets. A nut that can abut against the upper end surface of the support plate is threadedly connected to the outer periphery of the threaded connecting pipe. A motor is fixedly arranged on the upper end surface of the support plate. The lower end of the rotating shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to a motor shaft that extends downward through the support plate. The central cylinder is sleeved on the outer periphery of the motor shaft and fixedly connected to the motor.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, the nut is screwed onto the threaded connecting pipe, and the support plate can be fixed on the heat preservation cover. The bayonet is snap-fitted onto the threaded connecting pipe, which can ensure that the support plate and the heat preservation cover remain relatively stationary during the rotation of the motor.

[0015] Preferably, a plurality of reinforcing rods circumferentially distributed around the motor shaft are fixed to the lower end surface of the support plate.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, the arrangement of the reinforcing rods is beneficial to increasing the bending strength of the support plate.

[0017] Preferably, a cover plate abutted against the support plate is arranged on the upper side of the support plate.

[0018] Through the above technical solution, the arrangement of the cover plate can effectively reduce the heat loss in the collection cavity.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The hot water flowing in the water storage cavity heats the collection cylinder. The honeycomb spleen rotates with the rotating frame, so that the royal jelly in the honeycomb spleen is separated from the honeycomb under the action of centrifugal force and flows into the collection cavity, and accumulates in the collection cavity. The temperature of the collection cylinder rises under the action of the hot water, thereby increasing the fluidity of the royal jelly, reducing the residue of the royal jelly in the collection cavity, and accelerating the collection efficiency of the royal jelly.
