[0002] Gastrodia elata (Gastrodia elata) is a plant of the Orchidaceae family. Its dried tubers have been used medicinally in my country for over 2,000 years. Historical medical texts and literature describe its chemical components as including gastrodin, β-sitosterol and its D-glucoside, citric acid and its symmetrical monomethyl ester, palmitic acid, and sucrose, with gastrodin being its primary active ingredient. Gastrodin, with its small molecular weight and high polarity, exhibits potent sedative and hypnotic properties. Recent advances in artificial cultivation techniques have provided ample resources for its extraction.

The existing Gastrodia elata crushing and grinding device crushes and grinds the Gastrodia elata unevenly, resulting in different sizes of Gastrodia elata powder particles after crushing and poor screening efficiency, which affects the extraction process of gastrodin and has low extraction efficiency. In addition, the grinding screen is easily blocked by Gastrodia elata powder during the screening process. When the screen is blocked, the particles cannot be evenly screened.

[0036] Example 1
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, a gastrodin extraction device includes a gastrodia elata crushing component and a screening component. The crushing component includes a crushing box 11. A rotating shaft 2 is provided inside the crushing box 11. The rotating shaft 2 is provided with two layers of crushing blades 19 groups 3, each layer of crushing blades 19 group 3 has three crushing blades 19 evenly distributed along the circumference of the rotating shaft 2. The crushing blades 19 of the two layers of crushing blades 19 groups 3 are staggered up and down (as shown in FIG. Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the top of the rotating shaft 2 passes through the top of the crushing box 11 and extends outside the crushing box 11. A motor 1 is mounted on the end of the rotating shaft 2 extending outside the crushing box 11. The output end of the motor 1 is connected to the rotating shaft 2. The rotation of the motor 1 drives the rotating shaft 2, which in turn drives the crushing blades 19, which grind the Gastrodia elata into powder. The two layers of crushing blades 19 ensure more uniform crushing, allowing Gastrodia elata in both the upper and lower parts of the crushing box 11 to come into contact with the crushing blades 19.
[0038] A rotating disk 5 is provided at the bottom of the crushing box 11. The top of the rotating disk 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 2. The bottom of the rotating disk 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the crushing box 11 through a bearing. The center bottom of the rotating disk 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the crushing box 11 through a bearing. The bearing passes through the bottom of the crushing box 11 and extends to the outside of the bottom of the crushing box 11. The end of the bearing extending to the outside of the bottom of the crushing box 11 is provided with a motor 2 6, and the output end of the motor 2 6 is connected to the bearing.
[0039] The rotation of the motor 2 6 drives the bearing to rotate, thereby driving the rotating disk 5 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating disk 5 does not affect the rotation of the rotating shaft 2. The rotating shaft 2 rotates, and the rotating connection between the rotating disk 5 and the rotating shaft 2 belongs to the prior art.
[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of combing teeth 4 are provided on the upper surface of the rotating disk 5, and the height of the combing teeth 4 decreases linearly along the diameter of the rotating disk 5. The upper surfaces of the plurality of combing teeth 4 form an inclined plane, and there are gaps between each combing tooth 4. The rotation of the rotating disk 5 drives the combing teeth 4 to rotate, and the rotation of the combing teeth 4 drives the Gastrodia elata raw material at the bottom of the crushing box 11 to rotate, and the rotation direction of the rotating disk 5 is set opposite to the rotation direction of the rotating shaft 2. The surface of the rotating disk 5 is set in a wedge shape. Under the action of rotation, the movement amplitude of the Gastrodia elata at the bottom of the crushing box 11 increases, and the Gastrodia elata raw material at the bottom gradually moves upward, making the crushing process more uniform and the particle size of the Gastrodia elata crushed more uniform.
[0041] The screening assembly includes a screening box 10, which includes a screen 8. Both sides of the screen 8 are provided with hammer vibration assemblies. Figure 2 As shown, the hammer vibration assembly includes a cam 15, a vibration hammer, a rotating wheel 17, and a spring 12. The vibration hammer includes a hammer head 13 and a hammer handle 14. A rotating wheel 17 is provided on one side of the hammer handle 14.
[0042] Platforms 18 are provided on both sides of the screen 8, connecting the screen 8 to the inner wall of the screening box 10 via the platforms 18. The hammer head 13 contacts the platforms 18, and one end of the hammer handle 14 penetrates the side wall of the screening box 10 and is rotatably connected to the side wall of the screening box 10. The side wall of the screening box 10 is provided with a perforation for the hammer handle 14 to pass through, and the perforation is sealed without affecting the movement of the hammer handle 14. A spring 12 is connected at one end to the distal end of the hammer handle 14 and at the other end to the side wall of the screening box 10. A cam 15 engages with the rotating shaft. A motor 3 16 is provided on one side of the cam 15 to control the rotation of the cam 15. The output end of the motor 3 16 is connected to the cam 15. The rotation of the motor 3 16 drives the rotating wheel, which engages the cam 15 with the rotating wheel 17. Due to the special structure of the cam 15 (the wheel and the wheel protrusion), the vibrating hammer intermittently strikes the platform 18, causing the screen 8 to vibrate, causing the Gastrodia elata powder in the sieve holes to fall, preventing the Gastrodia elata powder from clogging the sieve holes and affecting screening efficiency.
[0043] A crossbeam 7 is provided on the inner wall of the screening box 10, and a scraper 9 is provided below the crossbeam 7. The bottom of the scraper 9 contacts the bottom of the screen 8, and the length of the scraper 9 corresponds to the width of the screen 8. A motor 4 (not shown in the figure) is provided on the outer wall of the screening box 10 corresponding to the crossbeam 7 to control the rotation of the crossbeam 7. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to one end of the crossbeam 7. The rotation of the motor 4 drives the crossbeam 7 to rotate, and the rotation of the crossbeam 7 drives the scraper 9 to rotate. The scraper 9 scrapes the gastrodia powder gathered at the bottom of the screen 8, accelerating the screen 8 to screen the gastrodia powder.
[0044] Example 2
[0045] A method for extracting gastrodin comprises the following steps:
[0046] Step 1: Select fresh Gastrodia elata, wash it, cut it into slices with a thickness of 2±0.2 mm, dry it with hot air circulation at 55° C. to a moisture content of ≤8%, and grind and sieve it until the Gastrodia elata powder has a particle size of less than 100 mesh.
[0047] In the second step, the Gastrodia elata powder is spread evenly in the plasma reaction chamber, and the chamber is evacuated to a pressure of ≤50Pa. A mixed gas is introduced and a high-frequency electric field is started to generate a low-temperature plasma containing active oxygen, which oxidizes the lignin components and forms nano-scale pores. After the treatment, the vacuum is released and the raw material is taken out. The mixed gas is argon and oxygen, and the volume ratio of argon to oxygen is 9:1. The pore structure formed by plasma oxidation etching significantly increases the contact area between the enzyme and the substrate, thereby improving the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency. Active oxygen preferentially destroys the hydrophobic layer of lignin, exposing cellulose and pectin, allowing the complex enzyme to target key components. Plasma pretreatment shortens the enzymatic hydrolysis time.
[0048] Step 3: Add a coenzyme, a protective agent, a complex enzyme, and water to the Gastrodia elata powder obtained in step 2. The coenzymes are polyethylene glycol and β-mercaptoethanol, the protective agent is trehalose, and the complex enzymes are pectinase and cellulase. The enzymatic hydrolysis conditions are controlled at a pH of 4.5-5.0 (adjusted with citric acid buffer); a temperature of 50-55°C, a stirring rate of 200-300 rpm, and a reaction time of 90-120 minutes. A protective agent: 0.5% trehalose is added to maintain enzyme thermal stability. The enzymatic hydrolysis is carried out for 90-120 minutes to obtain an enzymatic solution.
[0049] Step 4: Place the enzymatic hydrolyzate in a multi-frequency ultrasonic system, using low frequency (20-40kHz), medium frequency (60-80kHz), and high frequency (100-120kHz) to achieve step-by-step cell wall fragmentation through synergistic action. Power density: 200-300W / L, pulse mode (working 5s / interval 2s) to avoid local overheating. Low-frequency ultrasound (20kHz) produces a cavitation effect, forming microjets to penetrate the cell wall; high-frequency ultrasound (120kHz) promotes solute diffusion. Synchronously start the microwave-assisted system (microwave frequency: 2450MHz, power range 0-1000W adjustable, temperature control accuracy ±1°C), dynamically switch ultrasound and microwave effects, alternate every 30 seconds, and process for 15-20 minutes to obtain a crude extract. The microwave power is set to 400-600W, the temperature is maintained at 55-60°C, and the processing time is 15-20 minutes. Microwaves quickly heat water and accelerate the dissolution of gastrodin through dipole rotation. The micropores generated by ultrasonic cavitation accelerate the penetration of microwave energy, and the microwave thermal effect promotes the reduction of the ultrasonic cavitation threshold and improves the extraction efficiency.
[0050] Step 5: The crude extract passes through a macroporous resin column to adsorb macromolecular impurities, and is eluted with ethanol of different concentrations in three stages (10% ethanol in the first stage, 30% ethanol in the second stage, and 60% ethanol in the third stage). The highest concentration ethanol eluate is collected, the eluate is purified and treated, and freeze-dried to obtain high-purity gastrodin.
[0051] Comparative Example 1
[0052] A method for extracting gastrodin comprises the following steps:
[0053] Step 1: Select fresh Gastrodia elata, wash it, cut it into thin slices with a thickness of 2±0.2 mm, dry it with hot air circulation at 40° C. to a moisture content of ≤8%, and grind and sieve it until the particle size of the Gastrodia elata powder is less than 100 mesh.
[0054] Step 2: Add complex enzyme and water to the Gastrodia elata powder obtained in step 1, and control the enzymatic hydrolysis conditions to pH 4.5-5.0 (adjusted with citric acid buffer), temperature 50-55°C, stirring speed 200-300 rpm, and reaction time 90-120 minutes. Enzymatic hydrolysis is carried out for 90-120 minutes to obtain an enzymatic hydrolyzate.
[0055] Step three, place the enzymatic hydrolyzate in a multi-frequency ultrasonic system, using low frequency (20-40kHz), medium frequency (60-80kHz), and high frequency (100-120kHz) to achieve step-by-step cell wall breakage through synergistic action. Power density: 200-300W / L, pulse mode (working 5s / interval 2s) to avoid local overheating. Synchronously start the microwave-assisted system (microwave frequency: 2450MHz, power range 0-1000W adjustable, temperature control accuracy ±1°C), dynamically switch between ultrasonic and microwave effects, alternating every 30 seconds, and process for 15-20 minutes to obtain a crude extract.
[0056] In step 4, the crude extract passes through a macroporous resin column to adsorb macromolecular impurities, and is eluted with ethanol of different concentrations in three stages (10% ethanol in the first stage, 30% ethanol in the second stage, and 60% ethanol in the third stage). The highest concentration ethanol eluate is collected, the eluate is purified and treated, and freeze-dried to obtain high-purity gastrodin.
[0057] Comparative Example 2
[0058] A method for extracting gastrodin comprises the following steps:
[0059] Step 1: Select fresh Gastrodia elata, wash it, cut it into thin slices with a thickness of 2±0.2 mm, dry it with hot air circulation at 40° C. to a moisture content of ≤8%, and grind and sieve it until the particle size of the Gastrodia elata powder is less than 100 mesh.
[0060] In step two, the Gastrodia elata powder is spread evenly in a plasma reaction chamber, which is evacuated to a pressure of ≤50 Pa. A mixed gas is introduced, and a high-frequency electric field is activated to generate a low-temperature plasma containing reactive oxygen species, oxidizing the lignin components and forming nanoscale pores. After the treatment is complete, the vacuum is released and the raw material is removed. The mixed gas is argon and oxygen, with a volume ratio of 9:1.
[0061] Step 3: Add a coenzyme, a protective agent, a complex enzyme, and water to the Gastrodia elata powder obtained in step 2. The coenzymes are polyethylene glycol and β-mercaptoethanol, the protective agent is trehalose, and the complex enzymes are pectinase and cellulase. The enzymatic hydrolysis conditions are controlled at a pH of 4.5-5.0 (adjusted with citric acid buffer); a temperature of 50-55°C, a stirring rate of 200-300 rpm, and a reaction time of 90-120 minutes. A protective agent: 0.5% trehalose is added to maintain enzyme thermal stability. The enzymatic hydrolysis is carried out for 90-120 minutes to obtain an enzymatic solution.
[0062] Step 4: subjecting the enzymatic hydrolysate to ultrasonic treatment at an ultrasonic frequency of 70 kHz for 15-20 minutes to obtain a crude extract.
[0063] Step 5: The crude extract is passed through an HPD-100 macroporous resin column to adsorb macromolecular impurities, and is eluted with ethanol of different concentrations in three stages (10% ethanol in the first stage, 30% ethanol in the second stage, and 60% ethanol in the third stage). The highest concentration ethanol eluate is collected, the eluate is purified and treated, and freeze-dried to obtain high-purity gastrodin.
[0064] The performance of the gastrodin extracted by the extraction methods of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1-2 was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0065] Table 1 Test results
[0066]
[0067] Example 2 uses plasma and complex enzyme to pre-treat the Gastrodia elata cell wall, plasma treatment 5min, complex enzyme treatment 90min, comparative example 1 does not use plasma to carry out pre-treatment, only uses single enzymolysis method, as shown in Table 1 results, the treatment method of comparative example 1 is much lower than that of Example 2 to the destruction rate of cell wall, and the release amount of gastrodin is also lower, illustrating that Example 2 adopts the method of plasma+complex enzyme to treat cell wall, which can improve the destruction rate of cell wall and promote the release amount of gastrodin. Comparative example 1 only carries out single enzymolysis method without adding enzymolysis auxiliary agent, polyethylene glycol and beta-mercaptoethanol reduce solvent interfacial tension, promote enzyme and substrate contact, reduce mass transfer resistance and protect enzyme active center from organic solvent or extreme pH value destruction, extend enzyme half-life, maintain the reduction state of sulfhydryl (-SH) in enzyme molecule, and prevent enzyme oxidative inactivation. Trehalose forms a protective layer by hydrogen bonding to enzyme surface, improving the thermal stability of enzyme. The extraction method of comparative example 2 does not undergo multi-frequency ultrasonic treatment and microwave action, and the gastrodin release amount of comparative example 2 is lower than that of embodiment 2.
[0068] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned gastrodin extraction method and device, and the extraction process integrates low-temperature plasma pretreatment, enzymatic decomposition coupled with multi-frequency ultrasound-microwave assisted extraction, which improves the cell wall breaking rate, shortens the extraction time, and improves the gastrodin extraction efficiency. The designed device can make the gastrodia elata evenly crushed without clogging the screen, providing raw material guarantee for gastrodin extraction.
[0069] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify or replace the technical solutions of the present invention with equivalents, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
