Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of collagen emulsification equipment technology, and more specifically to an automated collagen emulsification equipment based on dynamic mixing. Background Technology
[0002] Emulsification refers to the process of forming an emulsion from two immiscible liquids by adding an emulsifier. In collagen, emulsification involves mixing collagen with water and then adding an emulsifier to form tiny emulsion particles. These particles are very small and can be evenly dispersed in water, giving the collagen solution a milky white emulsion appearance, thus achieving the purpose of emulsification.
[0003] Collagen emulsification is typically carried out in emulsification equipment, whose main function is to mix collagen, water, and emulsifier evenly. Chinese utility model patent CN222586162U discloses a collagen emulsification device, which has the following problems during use: 1) This emulsification device can only emulsify pre-treated collagen. After initial treatment, the collagen needs to be transferred to the emulsification device, increasing labor costs and prolonging the process time. Furthermore, the collagen is susceptible to deterioration due to interference from oxygen and ultraviolet light during transfer; 2) During the initial treatment of collagen, prolonged use of the equipment can lead to the introduction of iron slag due to corrosion, thus affecting the quality of the collagen. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides an automated collagen emulsification device based on dynamic mixing to solve the problems existing in the background art.
[0005] This invention provides the following technical solution: an automatic collagen emulsification device based on dynamic mixing, comprising a hoist, a pelletizer, a separation box, a feeding auger, a mixing machine, and an emulsifier arranged sequentially. A diversion trough and a sieve plate are movably installed inside the separation box via a vibration mechanism. A conveyor belt is installed inside the separation box, located below the discharge end of the sieve plate. A magnetic suction component is installed above the conveyor belt. The emulsifier is located on the side of the mixing machine and is connected to it. An installation plate is installed on the top of the emulsifier via a moving mechanism. The emulsifier is flat.

Both the stirring component and the first wall-scraping mechanism are located inside the emulsifier and reciprocate along the length of the emulsifier with the moving mechanism. A second wall-scraping mechanism for cleaning both ends of the emulsifier is also provided inside the emulsifier.
[0006] Furthermore, the vibration mechanism includes an installation assembly and a power assembly.

The comb plate is threadedly connected to the first reciprocating screw. One end of the comb plate extends directly below the discharge end of the diversion trough. Two sliding blocks on the same side of the screen plate are fixedly connected by a linkage plate. A first electric telescopic rod is provided on both sides of the screen plate. The movable end of each first electric telescopic rod is connected to the linkage plate on the corresponding side. A limit plate is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the fixing plate. A second drive motor is connected to the first reciprocating screw.
[0010] Furthermore, the magnetic suction assembly includes a plurality of electric slide rails arranged side by side and spaced apart along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. A second electric telescopic rod is fixedly installed on the slide base of each electric slide rail, and an electromagnet is fixedly installed on the movable end of each second electric telescopic rod.
[0011] Each of the slides is fixedly equipped with a push-button switch on its side. The separation box is slidably equipped with a slide shaft, which corresponds to the push-button switch. A pressing block is fixedly installed at one end of the slide shaft, and each pressing block is directly opposite the corresponding push-button switch. A compression spring is sleeved on the outside of each slide shaft, and the compression spring is located between the circular plate and the outer wall of the separation box.
[0012] Furthermore, two cleaning plates are fixedly installed on the side of the separation box, a first drawer is slidably installed on the side of the separation box, and a second drawer is provided at the end of the separation box near the sieve plate. The first drawer passes through the side of the separation box and extends into the separation box, and the second drawer passes through the end of the separation box and extends directly below the sieve plate. The second drawer receives the debris screened off by the sieve plate. A cleaning plate is installed on the inner wall of the separation box, and the cleaning plate is located directly above the first drawer.
[0013] Furthermore, the moving mechanism includes two moving blocks, each with a sliding groove on both sides of the emulsifier. A second reciprocating screw is rotatably mounted in each of the two sliding grooves, and a synchronous pulley is fixedly mounted at the end of each of the two second reciprocating screws. The two synchronous pulleys are connected by a synchronous belt. A third drive motor is fixedly mounted on the side of the emulsifier, and the output shaft of the third drive motor is connected to any one of the second reciprocating screws. The two moving blocks are threaded onto the two second reciprocating screws respectively, and a mounting plate is located between the two moving blocks and is fixedly connected to both moving blocks simultaneously.
[0014] Furthermore, the first scraping mechanism includes a first fixing rod and a first scraper. The first scraper has two pieces symmetrically arranged on both sides of the stirring shaft. Each first scraper is attached to the corresponding side of the emulsifier. An installation sleeve is rotatably sleeved on the upper part of the stirring shaft.

The second scraper is in contact with the end of the inner cavity of the emulsifier.
[0016] Furthermore, transmission gears are fixedly sleeved on the top outer walls of both mounting shafts, and spur racks are fixedly installed on both sides of the mounting plate, with each spur rack being adapted to one of the two transmission gears.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention compared to the prior art are:
[0018] 1. In this invention, the vibration mechanism inside the separation box drives the diversion trough and the sieve plate to vibrate together. The diversion plate on the diversion trough can break the aggregation state of collagen particles after pelleting. Combined with the vibration of the sieve plate, it can achieve preliminary dispersion and screening, allowing small foreign objects to fall into the second drawer through the mesh. The leveling component on the sieve plate adjusts the height of the comb plate through the first electric telescopic rod. The second drive motor drives the comb plate to reciprocate along the guide column, which evenly scrapes the particles and avoids local accumulation that leads to screening blind spots. The limiting plate can also constrain the particle movement path to ensure that all materials are fully screened.
[0019] 2. The electric slide rail drives the electromagnet to move quickly to the corresponding position. The second electric telescopic rod adjusts the adsorption height. The button switch controls the electromagnet to collect foreign objects. The cleaning plate can also clean the electromagnet in real time, thoroughly removing iron slag and ensuring that the collagen particles entering the subsequent stages meet the purity standards.
[0020] 3. Through the synergistic design of dynamic stirring and dual wall scraping, both emulsification uniformity and the problem of material sticking to the walls are ensured. The stirring component mixes the materials in the emulsifier, while the moving mechanism drives the mounting plate to move smoothly, expanding the stirring range and avoiding incomplete emulsification in certain areas. This ensures uniform mixing of the aqueous and oil phases and improves the fineness of the emulsion texture. Simultaneously, the first wall scraping mechanism moves synchronously with the moving mechanism, scraping away material sticking to the walls in real time. When the mounting plate moves to both sides of the emulsifier, the rack and pinion meshes with the transmission gear, driving the mounting shaft and the second scraper to rotate. This achieves thorough wall scraping of the semi-circular inner side, preventing residual material from deteriorating and affecting the stability of the emulsion system, and significantly improving the product qualification rate.

[0035] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the detailed description given herein with reference to the accompanying drawings is for better explanation. The structure of the present invention necessarily exceeds the limited embodiments described herein. Some equivalent alternatives or common means will not be described in detail herein, but still fall within the protection scope of this application.
[0036] Figure 1 - Figure 13 This is the preferred embodiment of the present invention, which is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 - Figure 13 The present invention will be further described below.
[0037] An automated collagen emulsification device based on dynamic mixing includes, in sequence, a hoist 1, a pelletizer 2, a separation box 3, a feeding auger 4, a mixing machine 6, and an emulsifier 5. The separation box 3 is equipped with a diversion trough 7 and a sieve plate 8 installed via a vibration mechanism. The sieve plate 8 is located directly below the diversion trough 7 and receives the material screened by the diversion trough 7. A conveyor belt 31 is installed inside the separation box 3, located below the discharge end of the sieve plate 8. A metal detector 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the separation box 3, located below the conveyor belt 31 and detecting the material on the conveyor belt 31. The raw materials are tested. A magnetic suction component is installed above the conveyor belt 31. A discharge pipe 44 is installed at the bottom of the separation box 3. The discharge end of the discharge pipe 44 is located above the input end of the feeding auger 4, so that the material output from the discharge pipe 44 falls onto the feeding auger 4. The emulsifier 5 is fixedly installed on the side of the mixing machine 6. The emulsifier 5 is connected to the mixing machine 6. The top of the emulsifier 5 has an installation port. A moving mechanism is installed in the installation port. In this embodiment, an installation plate 45 is slidably installed in the installation port. The moving mechanism is connected to the installation plate 45 and drives the installation plate 45 to move back and forth. A stirring assembly is connected to the moving mechanism and is located inside the emulsifier 5. In this embodiment, the stirring assembly includes a stirring shaft 51, stirring blades, and a stirring motor 52. The stirring shaft 51 is located inside the emulsifier 5, and its upper end is rotatably mounted on a mounting plate 45. The stirring blades are mounted on the stirring shaft 51, and the stirring motor 52 is mounted on the upper side of the mounting plate 45. The output shaft of the stirring motor 52 is connected to the stirring shaft 51 and drives it to rotate. A first scraping mechanism and a second scraping mechanism are also provided inside the emulsifier 5. The emulsifier 5 is flat. The first scraping mechanism is used to scrape the sides of the emulsifier 5 clean, and the second scraping mechanism is used to scrape the ends of the emulsifier 5 clean. The first scraping mechanism is mounted on the stirring shaft 51 and can rotate relative to it. The second scraping mechanism is mounted on the emulsifier 5. In this embodiment, the emulsifier 5 and the mixing machine 6 can be directly connected or connected through a pipe.
[0038] Using the above structure, the elevator 1 can transport large pieces of leather to the pelletizer 2, which processes the leather into uniform particles, laying the foundation for subsequent screening and emulsification. The separation box 3, as the core pretreatment unit, drives the diversion trough 7 and screen plate 8 through a vibration mechanism. The diversion trough 7 disperses the material, and the screen plate 8 screens the material, efficiently removing debris. The conveyor belt 31, together with the metal detector 32 and magnetic suction components, accurately identifies and removes introduced iron slag. The feeding auger 4 can stably transport the screened material into the mixing machine 6 for stirring. The connection design between the emulsifier 5 and the mixing machine 6 allows the material stirred by the mixing machine 6 to directly enter the emulsifier 5, shortening the material transfer path, reducing the contact time with air, and reducing the risk of oxidation and deterioration. The stirring components inside the emulsifier 5 achieve high-speed shearing and stirring, ensuring thorough mixing of water, collagen, and emulsifier. The moving mechanism drives the mounting plate 45 to reciprocate, which in turn drives the stirring components to reciprocate, expanding the stirring range and preventing uneven emulsification of materials in certain areas. The first and second wall scraping mechanisms clean the inner wall of the emulsifier 5 in real time, preventing materials from adhering to the inner wall of the emulsifier 5. This ensures material utilization and prevents residual materials from affecting the stability of the emulsion system.
[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the vibration mechanism includes an installation component and a power component. The diversion trough 7 and the sieve plate 8 are both installed in the separation box 3 through the installation component. The power component is installed on the separation box 3 and is connected to the installation component. The power component drives the diversion trough 7 and the sieve plate 8 to vibrate through the installation component.
[0040] The mounting assembly includes a vibrating plate 11. Two mounting slots 9 are arranged side-by-side along the height direction and spaced apart on both sides of the separation box 3. Each mounting slot 9 has vertical guide posts 10 at both ends. A vibrating plate 11 is installed inside each mounting slot 9, and both ends of each vibrating plate 11 are slidably connected to the corresponding guide post 10. The two ends of the upper vibrating plate 11 are fixedly connected to the corresponding side of the diversion channel 7 via connecting plates 13, and the two ends of the lower vibrating plate 11 are fixedly connected to the corresponding side of the screen plate 8 via connecting plates 13. A vibration spring 12 is fitted over each guide post 10, located below the corresponding vibrating plate 11.
[0041] The discharge end of the diversion trough 7 is open, and the discharge end of the diversion trough 7 is inclined and lower than the other end. Several diversion plates 14 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the diversion trough 7. The diversion plates 14 are inclined and gradually approach the inner wall of the diversion trough 7 along the material flow direction, and the inner end of the diversion plates 14 gradually approaches the middle of the diversion trough 7 along the material flow direction. When the material flows along the diversion trough 7, the diversion plates 14 can disperse the material and prevent it from accumulating. The power unit is connected to the vibrating plate 11.
[0042] The discharge end of the screen plate 8 is inclined downwards from the other end, and the discharge end of the screen plate 8 is located directly above the input end of the conveyor belt 31. The discharge end of the diversion trough 7 is located on the upper side of the end of the screen plate 8 furthest from the discharge end. A leveling component is provided on the upper side of the screen plate 8. The leveling component can flatten the material falling onto the screen plate 8 to ensure the screening speed of the material and prevent the material from piling up and affecting the screening speed. One side of the leveling component is located directly below the discharge end of the diversion trough 7 and flattens the material falling onto the diversion trough 7.
[0043] With the above structure, the vibration spring 12 on the outside of the guide column 10 provides elastic support for the vibrating plate 11. When the equipment is running, the vibrating plate 11 can slide up and down along the guide column 10, and transmit the vibration to the diversion trough 7 and the screen plate 8 through the connecting plate 13. The multiple diversion plates 14 on the diversion trough 7 can break the aggregation tendency of the material when it falls. With the action of vibration, the collagen particles after pelleting are evenly dispersed, avoiding local accumulation that leads to insufficient screening in the subsequent process. At the same time, the vibration of the screen plate 8 can simulate the bumpy effect of manual screening, so that the collagen particles move continuously on the plate surface. With the inclined state of the screen plate 8, the debris in the material is screened to the bottom of the separation box 3, while the qualified material moves along the screen plate 8 and falls onto the conveyor belt 31, laying the foundation for the subsequent accurate separation of iron slag. The leveling component can further optimize the distribution of the material on the screen plate 8 and improve the screening efficiency and uniformity.
[0044] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the power assembly includes a rotating shaft 15, an extrusion shaft 17, extrusion wheels 16, and a first drive motor 19. The bottom of the mounting groove 9 on the lower side is provided with mounting cavities. The rotating shaft 15 is rotatably mounted inside the separation box 3, with both ends of the rotating shaft 15 extending into the corresponding mounting cavities. The first drive motor 19 is mounted on the outside of the separation box 3, and its output shaft is connected to the corresponding end of the rotating shaft 15, driving it to rotate. Extrusion wheels 16 are fixedly mounted at both ends of the rotating shaft 15, located within the corresponding mounting cavities. Several protrusions are evenly distributed around the sides of the extrusion wheels 16, with each protrusion on one extrusion wheel 16 corresponding to the other. Extrusion shafts 17 are slidably mounted on both sides of the separation box 3, and are simultaneously fixedly connected to the middle of the two corresponding vibrating plates 11. Steel balls 18 are rotatably mounted on the lower end of the extrusion shaft 17, supporting the lower end of the extrusion shaft 17 on the side of the corresponding extrusion wheel 16 via the steel balls 18.
[0045] With the above structure, the first drive motor 19 drives the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, and the two extrusion rollers 16 on the rotating shaft 15 rotate synchronously. When the protrusions of the extrusion rollers 16 contact the steel balls 18 at the bottom of the extrusion shaft 17, the steel balls 18 push the extrusion shaft 17 upward, thereby causing the vibrating plate 11 to slide upward along the guide column 10. As the extrusion rollers 16 continue to rotate, the protrusions on the extrusion rollers 16 separate from the steel balls 18, and the diversion trough 7 and the screen plate 8 move the vibrating plate 11 downward under the action of gravity, which is buffered by the vibration spring 12. This cycle repeats, achieving continuous and stable vibration of the diversion trough 7 and the screen plate 8. The design of the steel balls 18 can convert the sliding friction between the extrusion rollers 16 and the extrusion shaft 17 into rolling friction, greatly reducing component wear, extending the service life of the equipment, and ensuring the smoothness of vibration, avoiding the problem of uneven vibration caused by jamming. The vibration frequency of the diversion trough 7 and the screen plate 8 can be adjusted by adjusting the speed of the first drive motor 19. Furthermore, the protrusion is an arc-shaped protrusion, which can avoid impact loads with the extrusion shaft 17.
[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, the leveling assembly includes a comb plate 27, with several comb teeth at the bottom. Each side of the screen plate 8 has two mounting holes 21 spaced apart. A connecting cavity is provided between the two mounting holes 21 on the same side. A sliding block 22 is slidably installed in each mounting hole 21. A fixing plate 29 is fixedly installed between the two sliding blocks 22 near the discharge end of the screen plate 8. A first reciprocating screw 25 is rotatably installed between the other two sliding blocks 22. The middle part of the comb plate 27 is threadedly connected to the first reciprocating screw 25. One end of the comb plate 27 extends directly below the discharge end of the diversion trough 7. Each connecting cavity is equipped with a linkage plate 23. The two ends of the linkage plate 23 are fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding block 22. The two sides of the sieve plate 8 are fixedly installed with first electric telescopic rods 24. The movable ends of the two first electric telescopic rods 24 are fixedly connected to the middle of the two linkage plates 23. A second drive motor 26 is fixedly installed on the side of any sliding block 22. The output shaft of the second drive motor 26 is connected to one end of the first reciprocating screw 25. The comb plate 27 is also connected with a guide rod 28. The two ends of the guide rod 28 are fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding block 22. The comb plate 27 and the guide rod 28 can slide relative to each other.
[0047] A limiting plate 30 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing plate 29. In this embodiment, since the first reciprocating screw 25 is located on the lower side of the diversion groove 7, it can prevent material from falling onto the first reciprocating screw 25. Furthermore, corrugated pipes can be sleeved on both sides of the first reciprocating screw 25 to protect the first reciprocating screw 25 and prevent material from falling onto it.
[0048] With the above structure, the leveling component can achieve precise leveling of collagen particles on the sieve plate 8 through multi-dimensional adjustment. First, the two first electric telescopic rods 24 can drive the linkage plate 23 to move up and down. The linkage plate 23 drives the comb plate 27 and the limiting plate 30 to move up and down synchronously through the sliding block 22. The distance between the comb plate 27 and the sieve plate 8 can be adjusted according to the particle size and accumulation thickness of the collagen particles, ensuring that the comb plate 27 can effectively comb the material and avoid damaging the particles due to being too close or failing to level due to being too far away. Second, when the second drive motor 26 drives the first reciprocating screw 25 to rotate, since the comb plate 27 is threadedly connected to the first reciprocating screw 25 and under the limiting action of the guide rod 28, the comb plate 27 moves horizontally back and forth, thereby evenly leveling the collagen particles accumulated on the sieve plate 8 and preventing local material from being too thick and affecting the screening effect. The first reciprocating screw 25 continuously rotates in one direction, which enables the comb plate 27 to move back and forth, which is the prior art.
[0049] The limiting plate 30 at the bottom of the fixed plate 29 can constrain the movement range of collagen particles. When the material enters between the limiting plate 30 and the screen plate 8, even if the screen plate 8 vibrates, the material can stably fall from the gap between the limiting plate 30 and the screen plate 8 onto the conveyor belt 31.
[0050] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the magnetic suction assembly includes two electric slide rails 33 arranged side by side and spaced apart along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 31. The two ends of the two electric slide rails 33 are respectively fixedly installed on the separation box 3. A second electric telescopic rod 35 is fixedly installed on the slide base 34 at the bottom of the two electric slide rails 33. An electromagnet 36 is fixedly installed on the movable end of the two second electric telescopic rods 35. A push button switch 38 is fixedly installed on the side of the two slide bases 34. A slide shaft 37 is slidably installed on the side of the separation box 3. The slide shaft 37 corresponds one-to-one with the two push button switches 38 and is set facing each other. A pressing block 39 is fixedly installed on one end of the two slide shafts 37. A circular plate 40 is fixedly installed on the other end of the two slide shafts 37. A compression spring 41 is sleeved on the outside of the two slide shafts 37. The compression spring 41 is located between the circular plate 40 and the outer wall of the separation box 3 and is connected to both the circular plate 40 and the outer wall of the separation box 3.
[0051] With the above structure, the magnetic suction assembly can remove iron slag from the collagen particles on the conveyor belt 31. Two electric slide rails 33 are installed in parallel inside the separation box 3. The slide block 34 can drive the second electric telescopic rod 35 and the electromagnet 36 to move quickly to the location of the iron slag. The second electric telescopic rod 35 can flexibly adjust the height of the electromagnet 36 according to the thickness of the material on the conveyor belt 31, so that the electromagnet 36 can adsorb the iron slag at close range after being energized, thereby improving the adsorption success rate and avoiding the situation where the adsorption force is insufficient due to the distance and the foreign object cannot be grabbed.
[0052] Meanwhile, the cooperation between the push-button switch 38 and the pressing block 39 enables automatic control of the electromagnet 36's on / off state. When the slide 34 moves the electromagnet 36 above the slag, the push-button switch 38 separates from the pressing block 39, triggering the electromagnet 36 to become magnetic. After attracting foreign objects, the slide 34 moves the electromagnet 36 above the first drawer 43. At this time, the pressing block 39 pushes the push-button switch 38 to actuate, the electromagnet 36 de-energizes and loses its magnetism, and the slag falls into the first drawer 43 for collection. The compression spring 41 provides cushioning to prevent damage from rigid collisions of components, and pushes the slide shaft 37 to reset after the slide 34 leaves, ensuring the repeatability accuracy of the push-button switch 38.
[0053] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, two cleaning plates 42 are fixedly installed on the side of the separation box 3. A first drawer 43 is slidably installed on the side of the separation box 3. A second drawer 61 is provided at the end of the separation box 3 near the sieve plate 8. The first drawer 43 passes through the side of the separation box 3 and extends into the separation box 3. The second drawer 61 passes through the end of the separation box 3 and extends into the separation box 3. The second drawer 61 is located directly below the sieve plate 8 and receives the debris screened off by the sieve plate 8. A cleaning plate 42 is installed on the inner wall of the separation box 3, and the cleaning plate 42 is located directly above the first drawer 43.
[0054] With the above structure, the two cleaning plates 42 on the side of the separation box 3 can cooperate with the magnetic suction component to achieve real-time cleaning of the electromagnet 36, avoiding the impact of residual collagen particles on the adsorption performance during the adsorption process. The first drawer 43 corresponds to the position of the magnetic suction component and can be used to collect iron slag adsorbed by the electromagnet 36. The drawer-type design makes it easy for staff to regularly remove and clean, and it is convenient to operate and can effectively prevent iron slag from being mixed into the material again. The second drawer 61 corresponds to the position of the sieve plate 8 and can accurately collect the debris that passes through the mesh of the sieve plate 8, preventing the collected debris from spreading back into the separation box 3 during equipment operation.
[0055] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the moving mechanism includes two moving blocks 50. Slide grooves are provided on both sides of the mounting opening. A second reciprocating screw 46 is rotatably mounted in each of the two slide grooves. Synchronous pulleys 47 are fixedly mounted at the ends of both second reciprocating screws 46, and the two synchronous pulleys 47 are connected by a synchronous belt 48. A third drive motor 49 is fixedly mounted on the side of the emulsifier 5. The output shaft of the third drive motor 49 is connected to the end of any one of the second reciprocating screws 46 and drives it to rotate. The two moving blocks 50 are slidably mounted in the corresponding slide grooves, and the moving blocks 50 are threadedly connected to the corresponding second reciprocating screws 46. The rotation of the second reciprocating screws 46 in one direction enables the moving blocks 50 to reciprocate, which is prior art. A mounting plate 45 is located between the two moving blocks 50 and fixedly connected to them.
[0056] With the above structure, the third drive motor 49 drives one of the second reciprocating lead screws 46 to rotate. Since the two second reciprocating lead screws 46 rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt 48, the two moving blocks 50 and the mounting plate 45 move synchronously. This ensures that the force on both sides of the mounting plate 45 is uniform, and the movement is smooth and without deviation. It avoids the problem of the stirring component colliding with the inner wall of the emulsifier 5 or uneven stirring caused by asynchronous movement on both sides.
[0057] like Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the first scraping mechanism includes a first fixing rod 53 and a first scraper 54. Two first scrapers 54 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the stirring shaft 51. Each first scraper 54 is respectively attached to the corresponding side of the emulsifier 5. A mounting sleeve is rotatably fitted onto the upper part of the stirring shaft 51. Each first scraper 54 is connected to the mounting sleeve via a first fixing rod 53. In this embodiment, two first fixing rods 53 are provided between each first scraper 54 and the mounting sleeve. The two first fixing rods 53 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the stirring shaft 51, and the first fixing rods 53 are arranged radially along the mounting sleeve.
[0058] With the above structure, the first scraping mechanism can clean the inner wall of the emulsifier 5 in real time during the emulsification process, effectively solving the problem of material sticking to the wall. When the mounting plate 45 drives the stirring shaft 51 to move horizontally back and forth, the first scraper 54 will move synchronously with the stirring shaft 51 to scrape off the material attached to the inner wall of the emulsifier 5. The scraped material returns to the emulsification chamber and mixes with other materials to continue participating in the emulsification process. This avoids material waste and prevents the material stuck to the wall from deteriorating due to prolonged residence, which would affect the quality of the final emulsified product.
[0059] like Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the second scraping mechanism includes two mounting shafts 55. Both ends of the inner wall of the emulsifier 5 are semi-cylindrical. Top plates 56 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the inner cavity of the emulsifier 5. The upper ends of the mounting shafts 55 are rotatably mounted on the top plates 56, and each mounting shaft 55 is coaxially arranged with one end of the emulsifier 5. Radial second fixing rods 57 are fixedly installed on the sides of the two mounting shafts 55. A second scraper 58 is fixedly installed on the other end of the second fixing rod 57. The second scraper 58 is in contact with the end of the inner cavity of the emulsifier 5.
[0060] With the above structure, the second scraping mechanism achieves omnidirectional, blind-angle-free scraping operation on the semi-cylindrical inner wall of the emulsifier 5. Two mounting shafts 55 are rotatably connected at the bottom and top, respectively. The bottom shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the emulsifier 5, and the top shaft is rotatably connected to the bottom of the top plate 56. Two second fixing rods 57 on the mounting shafts 55 are symmetrically distributed, providing stable support for the second scraper 58, ensuring a tight fit between the second scraper 58 and the semi-circular inner wall of the emulsifier 5. When the mounting shafts 55 rotate, they drive the second fixing rods 57 and the second scraper 58 to rotate synchronously, scraping away the material adhering to the inner wall of the side of the emulsifier 5. Because the inner wall of the side of the emulsifier 5 is semi-circular, the rotational movement of the scraper can cover the entire inner wall, avoiding blind spots. Compared with traditional fixed scraping, this rotary scraping method can more flexibly adapt to the curvature of the semi-circular inner wall, resulting in higher scraping efficiency, less wear on the inner wall, and extended service life of the emulsifier 5.
[0061] like Figure 13 As shown, transmission gears 59 are fixedly sleeved on the top outer walls of the two mounting shafts 55, and spur racks 60 are fixedly installed on both sides of the mounting plate 45. The two spur racks 60 are respectively matched with the two transmission gears 59.
[0062] With the above structure, the cooperation between the transmission gear 59 and the rack 60 realizes the automatic linkage control of the second scraping mechanism, without the need for an additional drive device, which simplifies the equipment structure and reduces energy consumption and failure rate. When the moving mechanism drives the mounting plate 45 to move horizontally, the racks 60 on both sides of the mounting plate 45 will move synchronously. When the racks 60 mesh with the transmission gear 59 on the mounting shaft 55, the horizontal movement of the racks 60 is converted into the rotational movement of the transmission gear 59, which in turn drives the mounting shaft 55 to rotate. Because the length of the racks 60 and the number of teeth of the transmission gear 59 are precisely designed, when the mounting plate 45 moves horizontally to one side of the emulsifier 5, the racks 60 can just drive the transmission gear 59 to rotate 180 degrees, so that the second scraper 58 on the mounting shaft 55 rotates 180 degrees synchronously, completing a complete scraping operation on the inner wall of the side of the emulsifier 5. This linkage design can make the scraping action and the reciprocating motion of the mounting plate 45 precisely match. Every time the mounting plate 45 moves one stroke, it can trigger a scraping operation, ensuring that the material on the inner wall is cleaned in real time during the emulsification process and avoiding the material from sticking to the wall for a long time. Meanwhile, the meshing transmission between the transmission gear 59 and the rack 60 has high precision and stability, which can ensure that the angle and range of each wall scraping are consistent, thus improving the uniformity and reliability of the wall scraping effect.
[0063] The working principle and usage process of this invention are as follows: During use, the leather material is fed into the pelletizer 2 via the elevator 1. The pelletizer 2 processes the leather material into pellets. The processed material falls above the diversion trough 7. The first drive motor 19 is started, driving the rotating shaft 15 and two extrusion rollers 16 to rotate. When the extrusion rollers 16 rotate, they exert pressure on the steel balls 18, causing the extrusion shaft 17 and two vibrating plates 11 to move upwards synchronously. Through the elastic action of multiple vibration springs 12, the multiple vibrating plates 11 reciprocate, thereby driving the diversion trough 7 and the sieve plate 8 to vibrate through the action of multiple connecting plates 13. When the diversion trough 7 vibrates, the collagen particles are evenly dispersed and fall onto the sieve plate 8 through the action of multiple diversion plates 14. Furthermore, a protective sleeve 20 is provided on the middle of the rotating shaft 15 to protect it.
[0064] When the sieve plate 8 vibrates, small foreign objects mixed in with the collagen particles fall into the second drawer 61 through the sieve plate 8. The two first electric telescopic rods 24 are activated, driving the two linkage plates 23 to move synchronously. This causes the four sliding blocks 22 to drive the comb plate 27 and the limiting plate 30 to move synchronously to a suitable height. The second drive motor 26 is activated to drive the first reciprocating screw 25 to rotate. Under the action of the guide rod 28, the comb plate 27 moves horizontally back and forth, scraping the collagen particles and preventing them from accumulating. When the collagen particles move between the limiting plate 30 and the sieve plate 8, the limiting plate 30 allows the collagen particles to fall orderly above the conveyor belt 31, thereby being conveyed to the discharge pipe 44.
[0065] When collagen particles are transported above conveyor belt 31, metal detector 32 detects iron slag mixed in with the collagen particles. When iron slag is present, slide 34, in cooperation with electric slide rail 33, drives the second electric telescopic rod 35 to move above the iron slag. When the push-button switch 38 on the side of slide 34 separates from the pressing block 39, electromagnet 36 is energized, and the second electric telescopic rod 35 moves to move above conveyor belt 31 to adsorb the iron slag. After adsorption, the second electric telescopic rod... 35 drives the electromagnet 36 to reset. The slide block 34 cooperates with the electric slide rail 33 to drive the electromagnet 36 to move horizontally to the top of the first drawer 43. When the button switch 38 on the side of the slide block 34 contacts the pressing block 39 at the end of the slide shaft 37, the electromagnet 36 is de-energized and demagnetized, and the iron slag falls into the first drawer 43. When the slide block 34 continues to move, it squeezes the slide shaft 37. At this time, the bottom of the electromagnet 36 contacts the cleaning plate 42, and the bottom of the electromagnet 36 is cleaned by the cleaning plate 42.
[0066] The sieved collagen particles are transported by conveyor belt 31 to discharge pipe 44, and fall through discharge pipe 44 to feeding auger 4. They are then transported through feeding auger 4 to mixing machine 6 for mixing, and after mixing, they are transported to emulsifier 5 for emulsification. The stirring motor 52 is started to drive the rotor to rotate, stirring the internal water and oil phases. The third drive motor 49 is started to drive one of the second reciprocating screws 46 to rotate. Through the meshing of the two synchronous pulleys 47 and the synchronous belt 48, the other second reciprocating screw 46 rotates synchronously. Through the threaded action between the two second reciprocating screws 46 and the two moving blocks 50, the two moving blocks 50 and the mounting plate 45 reciprocate horizontally, thereby fully emulsifying the internal materials. When the mounting plate 45 moves, it drives the stirring shaft 51, the two first fixed rods 53, and the two first scrapers 54 to move synchronously, cleaning the inner wall of the emulsifier 5 and preventing wall adhesion. When the mounting plate 45 moves horizontally to one side of the emulsifier 5, through the meshing of the rack 60 and the transmission gear 59, it drives the transmission gear 59 and the mounting shaft 55 to rotate 180 degrees. Through the mounting shaft 55, it drives the two second fixed rods 57 and the second scrapers 58 to rotate 180 degrees synchronously, thereby scraping the inner wall of the side of the emulsifier 5 and improving the scraping effect.
