Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of astaxanthin extraction, and specifically relates to an integrated device for breaking cell walls and extracting astaxanthin. Background Art

[0002] Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant and is widely used in the fields of health products, cosmetics, etc. The cell wall of Haematococcus pluvialis is rich in astaxanthin, and astaxanthin is usually extracted by breaking the cell wall of Haematococcus pluvialis.

[0003] For example, the invention patent with the authorization announcement number CN118787991B in the technical field of astaxanthin extraction specifically relates to a device for breaking cell walls and extracting astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis, including an extraction box body, a stirring and rolling mechanism, an upper and lower uniform mechanism, a cell wall breaking mechanism, a switching mechanism, a separation and extrusion mechanism, and a blocking mechanism. In the present invention, through the switching mechanism, the stirring and rolling mechanism moves downward in the extraction state to make the stirring plates become vertical states and continuously approach and separate, so that the stirring plates can better mix and roll and break the cell walls of Haematococcus pluvialis in the extraction liquid. When moving upward, the four stirring plates form a complete plane to scoop up the extraction liquid in the extraction box body from the bottom.

[0004] Combined with the above case and the actual situation, we found the following problems: When breaking the cell walls of Haematococcus pluvialis, ultrasonic waves are usually used for cell wall breaking. However, in industrial production, a large amount of Haematococcus pluvialis raw materials are usually added at one time, and then the cell wall breaking is carried out by means of ultrasonic cell wall breaking in multiple cycles. This not only consumes energy, but also, due to too much Haematococcus pluvialis in a single time, it is easy to cause uneven cell wall breaking, affecting the subsequent extraction of astaxanthin. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an integrated device for breaking cell walls and extracting astaxanthin to solve the above problems of the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides an integrated device for breaking cell walls and extracting astaxanthin, including a storage chamber and an ultrasonic cell wall breaker.

[0010] In the technical solution of the present invention, a feed port for adding the raw material Haematococcus pluvialis for astaxanthin extraction is arranged at the top of the storage chamber. Oblique plates are symmetrically arranged on the left and right of the inner top surface of the first cell breaking chamber. The top opening of the oblique plate is large and the bottom opening is small. An installation plate is fixed to the outer wall of the second cell breaking chamber near the right side. The ultrasonic cell breaker is fixed on the installation plate.

[0011] In the technical solution of the present invention, the first cell breaking component includes a servo motor fixed to the rear side wall of the first cell breaking chamber. The output shaft of the servo motor passes through the rear side wall of the first cell breaking chamber and is coaxially fixed with the right cell breaking roller. The two cell breaking rollers are driven by a gear set arranged therebetween.

[0012] In the technical solution of the present invention, the bottom of the first cell breaking chamber extends into the second cell breaking chamber. The material distribution pipe is communicated with the bottom of the first cell breaking chamber. An aggregate plate for controlling the centralized feeding of Haematococcus pluvialis for primary cell breaking is arranged above the opening and closing structure in the material distribution pipe. The aggregate plate is in the shape of a funnel with a large top diameter and a small bottom diameter. The bottom end of the aggregate plate abuts against the top surface of the movable plate mechanism. The inner ring diameter of the fixed ring is larger than the bottom diameter of the aggregate plate.

[0013] In the technical solution of the present invention, a fixed ring is arranged in the middle of the rotating ring. A plurality of pin rod grooves corresponding to the plurality of pin rods one by one are arranged on the fixed ring. A plurality of pin rods corresponding to the plurality of pin rod grooves one by one are arranged at the outer edge of the bottom surface of the movable plate. A driven gear is arranged on the left side of the bottom surface of the rotating ring. A limiting ring is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating ring. The limiting ring is embedded in the inner pipe wall of the material distribution pipe near the bottom and is rotatably connected with the material distribution pipe. Installation rods are symmetrically fixed to the bottom surface of the fixed ring. The outer ends of the installation rods are fixedly connected with the inner wall of the material distribution pipe. The limiting rod is inserted into the corresponding limiting hole and the two are slidably connected. The pin rod is inserted into the corresponding pin rod groove and the two are rotatably connected.

[0014] In the technical solution of the present invention, a chute is provided at the front end inside the fixed rod. The sliding mechanism includes a slide bar slidably connected in the chute, a toothed plate portion fixedly connected to the front end of the slide bar, and a head fixed to the front end of the toothed plate portion. A first spring is provided between the rear inner wall of the chute and the rear end of the slide bar.

[0015] In the technical solution of the present invention, a discharge pipe is fixed to the bottom of the second cell wall breaking chamber. An activity groove is provided inside the pipe wall of the discharge pipe. The top end of the activity pipe is provided with an outward extending edge portion. The edge portion is adapted to the activity groove, and the activity pipe is slidably connected to the edge portion.

[0016] In the technical solution of the present invention, the transmission structure includes a vertical rod fixed to the left side of the top surface of the edge portion, a smooth rod fixedly connected to the top end of the vertical rod through a horizontally arranged connecting rod, and an inclined rod fixed to the bottom end of the smooth rod. The head abuts against the smooth rod. The inclined rod is inclined backward from top to bottom. The inclination of the front side wall of the head is adapted to the inclination of the inclined rod.

[0017] In the technical solution of the present invention, a horizontal auxiliary rod is fixed to the top left side of the inner wall of the second cell wall breaking chamber. The top end of the vertical rod is provided with a friction portion. The outer wall of the friction portion is rough. The vertical rod passes through the auxiliary rod and the two are slidably connected.

[0018] In the technical solution of the present invention, guide rods are symmetrically fixed in the front and back between the upper and lower inner walls of the activity groove. The guide rods penetrate through the edge portion and the two are slidably connected. A second spring is sleeved on the rod wall between the lower groove wall of the activity groove and the bottom surface of the edge portion. The elastic force of the second spring is greater than the elastic force of the first spring.

[0019] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0020] 1. In the present invention, by providing the first cell wall breaking chamber and the second cell wall breaking chamber, when breaking the cell wall of Haematococcus pluvialis, the first cell wall breaking chamber drives the gear set to drive through the servo motor, and then drives the two cell wall breaking rollers to rotate relatively for mechanical cell wall breaking. In the second cell wall breaking chamber, an ultrasonic cell wall breaker is used to perform ultrasonic cell wall breaking on Haematococcus pluvialis, improving the cell wall breaking efficiency and quality, and at the same time avoiding the situation of incomplete cell wall breaking in subsequent single ultrasonic cell wall breaking.

[0021] 2. In the present invention, by providing a material distribution component and a movable component, the Haematococcus pluvialis falls through the material distribution pipe into the second cell wall breaking chamber, causing the movable pipe to slide downwards and driving the vertical rod and the inclined rod to slide downwards synchronously. At this time, the abutting head will slide forward under the action of the first spring until the abutting head abuts against the smooth rod, and the movable plate mechanism is completely closed; when the discharge valve is activated to discharge materials, the movable pipe rises under the action of the second spring. The initial upward sliding speed of the movable pipe is relatively slow to fully discharge the materials. As the movable pipe continues to slide upwards, it drives the inclined rod to move upwards and pushes the inclined rod backwards, enabling the movable plate to be opened for the second material discharge. This process is repeated to achieve batchwise quantitative cell wall breaking, improving the cell wall breaking effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0040] The following will describe in detail the specific implementation manners of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific implementation manners.

[0041] Unless otherwise clearly stated, throughout the specification, the term "comprising" or its variations such as "including" or "having" etc. will be understood to include the stated elements or components, without excluding other elements or other components.

[0042] Referring to Figures 1 - 10 as shown, this embodiment provides a technical solution:

[0043] In the present invention, the astaxanthin cell wall breaking and extraction integrated device includes a storage chamber 1 for storing Haematococcus pluvialis and an ultrasonic cell wall breaker 4 for breaking the cell wall of Haematococcus pluvialis. During the astaxanthin extraction process, it is necessary to use Haematococcus pluvialis as the raw material for cell wall breaking treatment. Among them, the ultrasonic cell wall breaker 4 is an ultrasonic pulse cell wall breaker, which is the prior art in this field and will not be elaborated here. The storage chamber 1 is sequentially connected with a first cell wall breaking chamber 2 for preprocessing Haematococcus pluvialis and a second cell wall breaking chamber 3 for secondary processing of Haematococcus pluvialis below. By setting the first cell wall breaking chamber 2 and the second cell wall breaking chamber 3, the cell wall of Haematococcus pluvialis is broken twice, improving the cell wall breaking efficiency of the ultrasonic cell wall breaker 4 and at the same time improving the cell wall breaking effect, which is convenient for subsequent processing;

[0044] The first cell breaking chamber 2 is provided with a first cell breaking assembly 5. At the connection between the first cell breaking chamber 2 and the second cell breaking chamber 3, there is a material distributing assembly 6 for intermittent discharging. At the bottom of the second cell breaking chamber 3, there is an actuating assembly 7 for controlling the material distributing assembly 6. By setting the material distributing assembly 6 and the actuating assembly 7, the Haematococcus pluvialis raw material after the first cell breaking can enter the second cell breaking chamber 3 quantitatively, avoiding excessive single cell breaking, which may lead to incomplete cell breaking and affect the quality of subsequent astaxanthin extraction.

[0045] The material distributing assembly 6 includes a material distributing pipe 61 fixed to the bottom of the first cell breaking chamber 2, an opening and closing structure 63 arranged near the bottom inside the material distributing pipe 61, and a pressing rod structure 64 linked with the actuating assembly 7. By setting the pressing rod structure 64 to cooperate with the actuating assembly 7 to control the opening and closing of the opening and closing structure 63.

[0046] The opening and closing structure 63 includes a number of movable plate mechanisms 631 regularly distributed in a ring shape and a rotating ring 633 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the material distributing pipe 61. The movable plate mechanism 631 includes a movable plate 6311, an extension block 6312 fixed to one end of the outer edge of the movable plate 6311, and a pin rod 6314 fixed to the other end of the outer edge of the movable plate 6311. The movable plate 6311 is generally triangular in shape, and its edge is arc-shaped to avoid mutual blocking during rotation. The adjacent edges of all the movable plates 6311 are in close contact and can be completely closed. A limiting rod 6313 is fixed to the bottom surface of the outer end of the extension block 6312. The rotating ring 633 is provided with a number of limiting holes 6331 corresponding one by one to the number of limiting rods 6313. When the sliding mechanism 642 drives the rotating ring 633 to rotate clockwise, the limiting holes 6331 push the limiting rods 6313 to slide out along the limiting holes 6331, driving the movable plate 6311 to rotate, thereby opening the material distributing pipe 61 and enabling the Haematococcus pluvialis after the first cell breaking to enter the second cell breaking chamber 3. The pressing rod structure 64 includes a fixed rod 641 and a sliding mechanism 642 for driving the driven gear 6333 to rotate.

[0047] The actuating assembly 7 includes an actuating pipe 71, a discharge valve 72 fixed near the bottom inside the actuating pipe 71, and a transmission structure 73 for controlling the opening and closing of the material distributing assembly 6. The discharge valve 72 is provided with a timer. Controlling the opening and closing of the discharge valve 72 by the timer is a prior art and will not be elaborated here.

[0048] In addition, such as Figures 1 - 2As shown in the figure, a feed inlet 11 for adding Haematococcus pluvialis, the raw material for astaxanthin extraction, is provided at the top of the storage chamber 1. A feed valve for controlling the feed is provided at the bottom of the storage chamber 1 (not shown in the figure as it is prior art and will not be elaborated here). On the inner top surface of the first cell disruption chamber 2, inclined plates 21 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right. The top opening of the inclined plate 21 is large and the bottom opening is small, enabling the Haematococcus pluvialis to concentrate and enter the first cell disruption assembly 5, preventing it from entering from the left and right inner walls of the first cell disruption assembly 5 and the first cell disruption chamber 2, which may cause incomplete cell disruption and affect subsequent extraction processes. A mounting plate 31 is fixed to the outer wall of the second cell disruption chamber 3 on the right side, and the ultrasonic cell disruptor 4 is fixed on the mounting plate 31.

[0049] In addition, as Figure 3 shown, the first cell disruption assembly 5 includes a servo motor 51 fixed to the rear side wall of the first cell disruption chamber 2 and two cell disruption rollers 52 for squeezing Haematococcus pluvialis. The output shaft of the servo motor 51 passes through the rear side wall of the first cell disruption chamber 2 and is coaxially fixed to the right cell disruption roller 52. The two cell disruption rollers 52 are driven by a gear set 53. The gear set 53 consists of two meshing gears, and the two gears are respectively coaxially fixed to the rear end shafts of the two cell disruption rollers 52. During the first cell disruption, the servo motor 51 is started, and the two cell disruption rollers 52 are driven to rotate relative to each other through the gear set 53 for mechanical cell disruption.

[0050] In addition, as Figure 2 and Figures 4 - 6 shown, the bottom of the first cell disruption chamber 2 extends into the second cell disruption chamber 3. The distribution pipe 61 is communicated with the bottom of the first cell disruption chamber 2. Each time the height of the Haematococcus pluvialis entering the second cell disruption chamber 3 is not higher than the height of the distribution pipe 61. An aggregate plate 62 for controlling the concentrated feeding of the Haematococcus pluvialis after the first cell disruption is provided in the distribution pipe 61 above the opening and closing structure 63. The aggregate plate 62 is in the shape of a funnel with a large top diameter and a small bottom diameter. The bottom end of the aggregate plate 62 abuts against the top surface of the movable plate mechanism 631. The inner ring diameter of the fixed ring 632 is larger than the bottom diameter of the aggregate plate 62, so that when the movable plate 6311 rotates and opens, the Haematococcus pluvialis directly passes through the bottom of the aggregate plate 62, passes through the middle of the movable plate 6311 and the fixed ring 632, and enters the second cell disruption chamber 3, without flowing outside the aggregate plate 62 and being unable to fall.

[0051] Specifically, a fixed ring 632 is provided in the middle of the swivel ring 633. A number of pin rod grooves 6321 corresponding to a number of pin rods 6314 one by one are provided on the fixed ring 632. A driven gear 6333 is provided on the left side of the bottom surface of the swivel ring 633. A limiting ring 6332 is fixed on the outer wall of the outer ring of the swivel ring 633. The limiting ring 6332 is embedded in the inner wall of the bottom of the material distribution pipe 61 and the limiting ring 6332 is rotatably connected to the material distribution pipe 61. By providing the limiting ring 6332, the position of the swivel ring 633 is limited, and at the same time, the rotation of the swivel ring 633 is not affected. Symmetrically fixed on the bottom surface of the fixed ring 632 are mounting rods 6322. The mounting rods 6322 are horizontally L-shaped and do not block the sliding of the limiting rod 6313. The outer ends of the mounting rods 6322 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the material distribution pipe 61. The fixed ring 632 is fixed by the mounting rods 6322 to prevent the fixed ring 632 from rotating. The limiting rod 6313 is inserted into the corresponding limiting hole 6331 and the two are slidably connected. The pin rod 6314 is inserted into the corresponding pin rod groove 6321 and the two are rotatably connected.

[0052] Further, a chute 6411 is provided at the front end inside the fixed rod 641. The sliding mechanism 642 includes a slide rod 6421 slidably connected in the chute 6411, a toothed plate portion 6422 fixedly connected to the front end of the slide rod 6421, and a head 6423 fixed to the front end of the toothed plate portion 6422. The toothed plate portion 6422 meshes with the driven gear 6333. A first spring 643 is provided between the rear inner wall of the chute 6411 and the rear end of the slide rod 6421. When the movable assembly 7 moves upward, it will push the sliding mechanism 642 to move backward and compress the first spring 643, thereby driving the driven gear 6333 to rotate clockwise.

[0053] In addition, as Figures 8 - 10 shown, a discharge pipe 32 is fixed to the bottom of the second cell disruption chamber 3. An activity groove 321 is provided in the pipe wall of the discharge pipe 32. An outer edge portion 711 extending outward is provided at the top end of the movable pipe 71. The outer edge portion 711 is adapted to the activity groove 321. The movable pipe 71 is slidably connected to the outer edge portion 711. At the beginning of cell disruption, the movable plate 6311 is in an open state. The Haematococcus pluvialis that has undergone one cell disruption directly enters the second cell disruption chamber 3. As more and more Haematococcus pluvialis enters, the movable pipe 71 will slide down along the activity groove 321 under the action of gravity.

[0054] Specifically, the transmission structure 73 includes a vertical rod 731 fixed to the top surface of the outer edge portion 711 near the left side, a smooth rod 734 fixedly connected to the top end of the vertical rod 731 through a horizontally arranged connecting rod 733, and an inclined rod 735 fixed to the bottom end of the smooth rod 734. The abutting head 6423 abuts against the smooth rod 734. The inclined rod 735 inclines backward from top to bottom. The inclination of the front side wall of the abutting head 6423 is adapted to the inclination of the inclined rod 735. When the movable tube 71 slides down, it will drive the vertical rod 731 to slide down synchronously. At this time, the inclined rod 735 slides down, and the abutting head 6423 will slide forward under the action of the first spring 643 and drive the driven gear 6333 to rotate clockwise until the abutting head 6423 abuts against the smooth rod 734. At this time, the movable plate mechanism 631 is completely closed, and a quantitative material distribution is completed once.

[0055] It should be noted that two trigger buttons are provided on the inner wall of the front side of the inner wall of the movable groove 321, both above and below. When the movable tube 71 slides down to the bottommost part, the lower trigger button is triggered. At this time, the ultrasonic cell breaker 4 is started, and at the same time, the timing device of the discharge valve 72 is started. When the movable tube 71 triggers the upper trigger button, the ultrasonic cell breaker 4 and the discharge valve 72 are closed. The timing device and the trigger button are both prior arts and will not be elaborated here.

[0056] Furthermore, a horizontal auxiliary rod 74 is fixed to the left side near the top of the inner wall of the second cell breaking chamber 3. A friction portion 732 is provided near the top end of the vertical rod 731. The outer wall of the friction portion 732 is rough. The vertical rod 731 passes through the auxiliary rod 74 and the two are slidably connected. Guide rods 75 are symmetrically fixed in the front and back between the upper and lower inner groove walls of the movable groove 321. The guide rods 75 penetrate through the outer edge portion 711 and the two are slidably connected. A second spring 76 is sleeved on the rod wall of the guide rod 75 between the lower groove wall of the movable groove 321 and the bottom surface of the outer edge portion 711. The minimum elastic force of the second spring 76 is greater than the maximum elastic force of the first spring 643. The frictional force between the friction portion 732 and the auxiliary rod 74 is slightly less than the minimum elastic force of the second spring 76. When the discharge valve 72 is opened, the second spring 76 will push the movable tube 71 to slide upward. Due to the resistance of the friction portion 732, the upward sliding speed of the movable tube 71 is slower, so that there is sufficient time for discharging. When the movable tube 71 continues to slide upward until the friction portion 732 and the auxiliary rod 74 are disengaged, at this time, the abutting head 6423 just abuts against the inclined rod 735 and touches the trigger button at the same time to close the discharge valve 72 and the ultrasonic cell breaker 4. The continuously upward sliding movable tube 71 drives the inclined rod 735 to move upward and pushes the inclined rod 735 backward so that the movable plate 6311 can be opened for the second material feeding.

[0057] The working principle of the astaxanthin cell breaking and extraction integrated device in the present invention is specifically as follows:

[0058] During cell breaking, the feeding valve is started, and the Haematococcus pluvialis raw material is lowered into the first cell breaking chamber 2. The servo motor 51 is started to drive the gear set 53 to drive the two cell breaking rollers 52 to rotate relatively for the first mechanical cell breaking;

[0059] The Haematococcus pluvialis that has passed through the cell wall breaking roller 52 will directly fall into the second cell wall breaking chamber 3 through the material distribution pipe 61. As the gravity increases with the increase of the incoming Haematococcus pluvialis, the movable pipe 71 will slide down along the movable groove 321, and drive the vertical rod 731 to slide down synchronously. At this time, the inclined rod 735 slides down, and the abutting head 6423 will slide forward under the action of the first spring 643 and drive the driven gear 6333 to rotate clockwise, and push the limiting rod 6313 to slide inward along the limiting hole 6331 through the limiting hole 6331 to drive the movable plate 6311 to rotate counterclockwise around the pin rod 6314, thereby closing the material distribution pipe 61 until the abutting head 6423 abuts against the smooth rod 734. At this time, the movable plate mechanism 631 is completely closed;

[0060] When the movable pipe 71 continues to slide down to the bottom of the movable groove 321, the lower trigger button is triggered at this time, and the timing devices of the ultrasonic cell wall breaker 4 and the discharge valve 72 are started at this time. When the timing ends, the discharge valve 72 starts to discharge materials. The movable pipe 71 rises under the action of the second spring 76. Due to the resistance of the friction part 732, the upward sliding speed of the movable pipe 71 is relatively slow, so that there is sufficient time for discharging materials. When the movable pipe 71 continues to slide upward until the friction part 732 and the auxiliary rod 74 are separated, at this time, the abutting head 6423 just abuts against the inclined rod 735 and contacts the upper trigger button at the same time to close the discharge valve 72 and the ultrasonic cell wall breaker 4. The continuously upward sliding movable pipe 71 drives the inclined rod 735 and the inclined rod 735 to move upward and push the abutting head 6423 and the toothed plate part 6422 to move backward, so that the movable plate 6311 can be opened, and the second feeding is carried out. The above steps are repeated in turn to realize batch quantitative cell wall breaking and improve the cell wall breaking effect.

[0061] The foregoing description of specific exemplary embodiments of the present invention is for purposes of illustration and exemplification. These descriptions are not intended to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed, and obviously, many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teaching.
