Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ultrasonic processing equipment technology, and more specifically, to a device for the coordinated removal of feathers from bird's nests using ultrasonic and electrostatic methods. Background Technology

[0002] As a high-end health supplement, the quality of bird's nest is directly related to its impurity content, and the removal of feather impurities (especially fine downy feathers) is the core step in bird's nest processing. Current methods of removing feathers from bird's nests mainly rely on manual picking, which has the following problems: First, it is extremely inefficient; a skilled worker can only process 10-15 bird's nests per day, which is insufficient to meet the needs of large-scale production. Second, the breakage rate is high; manual picking easily damages the mesh structure of the bird's nest, resulting in a poorer taste and reduced expansion rate after stewing. Third, cleaning is not thorough; fine downy feathers with a diameter of <0.5mm easily remain in the gaps of the bird's nest, affecting product quality and the eating experience.

[0003] Some existing technologies attempt to use ultrasound or electrostatic methods alone to assist in feather removal, but these methods have significant drawbacks when used alone: ​​while ultrasonic removal can remove some deep impurities, it lacks the ability to attract tiny, weakly charged feathers, and prolonged high-frequency ultrasound can easily lead to protein denaturation and sialic acid loss in bird's nest; electrostatic removal can only remove surface feathers and cannot penetrate deep into the crevices of the bird's nest, requiring prior cleaning steps to be effective. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a synergistic feather removal technology that can achieve "deep cleaning + precise impurity removal + quality protection" to address the pain points of existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems in related technologies, the present invention provides a bird's nest ultrasonic and electrostatic synergistic feather removal device, which can solve the above problems.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows: The ultrasonic and electrostatic synergistic feather removal device for bird's nest includes a base, a support module, an ultrasonic generation module, and an electrostatic module; The ultrasonic generating module includes an ultrasonic transducer and an ultrasonic generator, with the ultrasonic generator installed inside the base. The load-bearing module includes a bracket, with ultrasonic transducers fixedly installed on the bottom and side walls of the bracket's groove. A flexible silicone pad is laid inside the groove of the bracket, and bearing seats are provided on both sides of the top of the bottom shell. The side walls of the bracket are rotatably mounted on the inside of the bearing seats via a shaft, and a servo motor that drives the bracket to rotate is provided outside the bearing seats. The electrostatic module is located above the carrier module. The electrostatic module includes an insulating shell, inside which an electrostatic generator is fixedly installed. A metal adsorption mesh is detachably installed at the bottom of the insulating shell by bolts. The electrostatic generator is electrically connected to the metal adsorption mesh. Tracks are provided on both sides of the bottom of the insulating shell, and a hair collection box is slidably installed in the track.

[0006] Furthermore, a groove is formed on the upper surface of the bottom of the flexible silicone pad, and a humidity sensor is installed inside the groove. A nozzle is installed on one side of the top of the bracket, and the nozzle is connected to the water pump through a pipe. The humidity sensor is connected to the water pump through a PLC controller.

[0007] Furthermore, each of the four corners of the bottom shell is fixedly installed with a column, the top of the column is fitted with a spring, the middle of the column is fixedly installed with a spring base, and the top of the insulating shell is fixed to the bottom of the through hole seat.

[0008] Furthermore, the top of the column extends through the through-hole seat, and a clamp is attached to the top of the column. The through-hole seat is supported by the top of the spring.

[0009] Furthermore, a control button is fixedly installed on the top of the through-hole seat, and the control button is electrically connected to the electrostatic generator.

[0010] Furthermore, the metal adsorption mesh has a detachable mesh structure with a mesh aperture of 0.5mm~1mm, and the surface of the metal adsorption mesh is coated with an anti-stick coating.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this invention are: the device of this application, through flexible bearing, gentle ultrasonic frequency and directional electrostatic field, can preserve the integrity of bird's nest to the greatest extent and reduce the loss rate of sialic acid from bird's nest; Real-time monitoring via humidity sensor triggers water replenishment when the bird's nest becomes too dry, ensuring stable vibration separation effect; By combining ultrasound and electrostatics, the problems of low efficiency, excessive residue, and damage to bird's nest caused by traditional hair removal methods are solved.

[0016] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] like Figure 1-2 As shown, this device is an integrated high-efficiency bird's nest feather removal equipment, mainly composed of a carrier module, an ultrasonic generation module, an electrostatic adsorption module, and a control module. Each module works in concert through a specific structure to achieve efficient feather removal from bird's nest.

[0018] Support Module: The groove of the support 2 adopts an arc-shaped design to conform to the natural shape of the bird's nest. The flexible silicone pad 3 inside can effectively buffer ultrasonic vibration and avoid physical damage to the bird's nest. The support is mounted on the inner side of the bearing seat at the top of the bottom shell 1 by a shaft rotation. It is driven by a servo motor 5 to achieve an angle adjustment of 0-30°, allowing the feathers in the gaps of the bird's nest to naturally slide to the surface for easy subsequent processing.

[0019] Ultrasonic Generator Module: The ultrasonic generator 17 is installed inside the base and is connected to an external power supply and control module. It can receive control signals and generate specific electrical signals. The ultrasonic transducer 16 is made of high-sensitivity, high-efficiency piezoelectric ceramic material and is fixedly installed on the bottom and side wall of the tray, electrically connected to the ultrasonic generator 17 via wires. When the ultrasonic generator 17 is working, it converts the electrical signal into high-frequency mechanical vibration of 20-40kHz and transmits it to the tray, acting on the interface between the bird's nest and the feathers, breaking the adhesion between them and causing the feathers to detach from the bird's nest matrix. At the same time, to ensure vibration uniformity, multiple ultrasonic transducers 16 are rationally arranged on the bottom and side wall of the tray, and by optimizing the transducer spacing and installation angle, all-round, dead-angle-free vibration coverage is achieved.

[0020] Electrostatic Adsorption Module: The insulating housing 10 is made of high-insulation engineering plastic, and an electrostatic generator 13 is fixedly installed inside. The electrostatic generator 13 consists of a high-voltage generating circuit, a control circuit, and a power supply circuit, which can generate a 5-10kV directional electrostatic field. The metal adsorption mesh 14 is a detachable mesh structure with a mesh aperture of 0.5mm-1mm. The surface is coated with a nano anti-stick coating (such as a polytetrafluoroethylene coating) to ensure accurate capture of detached feathers and prevent feathers from sticking together. The metal adsorption mesh 14 is electrically connected to the electrostatic generator 13 via wires and is installed at the bottom of the insulating housing 10. The feather collection box 11 adopts a drawer-type detachable design and is located below the metal adsorption mesh 14 for easy collection and cleaning of adsorbed feathers. In addition, the four corners of the top of the bottom shell 1 are fixedly installed with columns 6, the top of the columns are fitted with springs 8, and the middle is fitted with a spring base 7. The top of the insulating housing 10 is fixed to the bottom of the through-hole seat 9. The top of the column passes through the through-hole seat and is secured with a clamp. The through-hole seat is supported by the top of the spring, providing elastic support for the electrostatic module, reducing the impact of vibration on the electrostatic module, and facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the electrostatic module and the bird's nest. A control button is installed on the top of the through-hole seat and is electrically connected to the electrostatic generator 13, facilitating the operation and control of the electrostatic field's opening and closing.

[0021] Control module: Through components such as a PLC controller, the ultrasonic frequency and electrostatic field intensity can be flexibly adjusted according to the type and amount of feathers in the bird's nest to achieve personalized feather removal. Humidity sensor 15 monitors the humidity of the bird's nest in real time. It is connected to a water pump through the PLC controller. When the bird's nest is too dry, a water replenishment operation is triggered to ensure stable vibration separation effect.

[0022] Example 1: Removing feathers from dried white swallows Preparation Take 100g of dried bird's nest and soak it in purified water at 22℃ for 1.5 hours. After soaking, remove the bird's nest and drain the water.

[0023] After draining, the bird's nest is placed in the tray 2 of the carrier module. The tray is lined with a flexible silicone pad 3 to prevent the ultrasonic vibration from causing physical damage to the bird's nest.

[0024] Ultrasonic separation stage The ultrasonic generator module is activated by the control module, and the ultrasonic generator 17 starts working, generating high-frequency vibrations. The ultrasonic frequency is adjusted to 30kHz, and the ultrasonic transducer 16 is fixedly installed on the bottom and side wall of the tray to ensure that the vibration evenly covers the surface and gaps of the bird's nest.

[0025] The ultrasonic waves act continuously for 4 minutes, during which the humidity sensor 15 monitors the humidity of the bird's nest in real time. If the bird's nest is too dry, the nozzle 4 is triggered to replenish water. The nozzle is connected to a water pump through a pipe, and the water pump is connected to a water source. The PLC controller starts the water pump to replenish water, ensuring stable vibration separation effect.

[0026] Electrostatic adsorption stage The electrostatic adsorption module is activated synchronously, and the electrostatic generator 13 inside the insulating housing 10 operates to generate a directional electrostatic field. The electrostatic field strength is adjusted to 7kV, and the distance between the metal adsorption net 14 and the surface of the bird's nest is maintained at 6cm. By pressing down on the through-hole seat 9, the metal adsorption net 14 is brought closer to the surface of the bird's nest. Releasing the metal adsorption net 14 causes the electrostatic adsorption module to rise and reset via the spring 8, facilitating the removal and placement of the bird's nest. The metal adsorption net has a detachable mesh structure with a mesh aperture of 0.5mm~1mm and is coated with an anti-stick coating to ensure accurate capture of detached feathers. The anti-stick coating is made of tungsten carbide nano-coating or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating.

[0027] The electrostatic adsorption lasts for 4 minutes. The feather collection box 11 is slidably installed at the bottom of the insulating shell via the track 12 to collect the adsorbed feathers.

[0028] Secondary optimization stage Adjust the angle of the support module to 18°, and achieve angle adjustment by driving the bracket seat to rotate via servo motor 5. Reduce the ultrasonic frequency to 22kHz and continue for 1.5 minutes to gently separate the fine down remaining in the gaps, while using gravity to help the feathers slide off.

[0029] Complete hair removal Turn off the device, remove the feather collection box, and collect approximately 1.2g of feathers. The bird's nest was then removed, and testing showed a feather removal rate of 98.5%, with no significant difference in sialic acid content compared to the original bird's nest.

[0030] Example 2: Removing feathers from dried bird's nest Preparation Take 80g of dried bird's nest and soak it in purified water at 25℃ for 2 hours. After soaking, remove the bird's nest and drain the water.

[0031] Place the drained bird's nest into the bracket of the support module.

[0032] Ultrasonic separation stage Turn on the ultrasonic module and adjust the ultrasonic frequency to 35kHz. The ultrasonic transducer will then operate, ensuring that the vibration is applied evenly to the bird's nest.

[0033] The ultrasonic waves act continuously for 5 minutes, during which the humidity sensor monitors the humidity of the bird's nest in real time and triggers the nozzle to replenish water if necessary.

[0034] Electrostatic adsorption stage Activate the electrostatic module, adjust the electrostatic field strength to 8kV, keep the metal adsorption net 7cm away from the surface of the bird's nest, and continue adsorption for 5 minutes to ensure effective capture of detached feathers.

[0035] Secondary optimization stage Adjust the angle of the support module to 20°, and drive the bracket to rotate via a servo motor. Reduce the ultrasonic frequency to 25kHz and continue for 2 minutes to further separate the fine fibers remaining in the gaps.

[0036] Complete hair removal After the feather removal was completed, the feather removal rate was 98.2%, and the bird's nest was intact with no broken pieces.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
