Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of protein extraction technology, and more specifically, to a continuous protein extraction apparatus and extraction method. Background Technology
[0002] Protein extraction is the process of separating and extracting proteins from biological samples. It typically involves disrupting cell or tissue structures, causing intracellular proteins to be released into solution. This process is fundamental to protein analysis and research and is widely used in fields such as biology, medicine, food science, and drug development. There are various extraction methods, including mechanical disruption, chemical lysis, ultrasonic treatment, and temperature changes, all aimed at efficiently and completely obtaining the target protein. Key steps in the protein extraction process include cell or tissue disruption, solvent selection, protein stabilization, and separation of the extract. Commonly used solvents include buffer solutions, salt solutions, and organic solvents, which help dissolve proteins and maintain their activity.
[0003] During the extraction process, the extractant needs to be thoroughly mixed with the protein raw material to be extracted so that the protein can be separated from the raw material. During the mixing process, mixing equipment is usually used to mix the two. However, existing mixing equipment still has some problems in actual use. For example, the existing mixing equipment has a simple structure and single function, and the required mixing time is too long. Excessive mixing can damage the separated protein, thus greatly reducing the extraction effect. Summary of the Invention

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the inner wall of the mixing tank is movably connected to multiple insertion rods, and springs are provided on the outer sides of each insertion rod.

One end of the spring is fixedly connected to one side of the contact head, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mixing tank. The arc-shaped lever is arc-shaped. Multiple arc-shaped blocks are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the rotating disk, and the number of the multiple arc-shaped blocks corresponds to the number of contact heads.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the auxiliary extraction mechanism includes a crossbar, which is fixedly connected to another output end of a dual-axis motor. Both ends of the bottom surface of the crossbar are fixedly connected to connecting columns II. The bottom ends of the connecting columns II are fixedly connected to a rotating frame. Multiple arc-shaped blocks II are fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating frame.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a box is fixedly installed at each of the four corners of the top surface of the fixing frame. An airbag is provided inside the box. A snap-fit plate is movably connected inside the box. One side of the snap-fit plate is bonded to one side of the airbag. An extension plate is fixedly installed on one side of the snap-fit plate. An abutment plate is fixedly installed on the top surface of the extension plate.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the top surface of the housing, a one-way valve is installed on the outer side of the connecting pipe, an air inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the rear of the housing, a one-way valve is installed on the outer side of the air inlet pipe, a rectangular tube is fixedly connected to the top surface of the connecting pipe, a plug pipe is fixedly connected to one side of the rectangular tube, a fixing block is fixedly installed on the top surface of the arc-shaped lever, an air distribution frame is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block, and multiple nozzles are fixedly connected to one side of the air distribution frame. The plug pipe and the fixing block are interconnected.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the intermittent feeding mechanism includes a transmission column, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to a distribution plate. The bottom surface of the distribution plate is in contact with the inner bottom surface of the hopper. Both the top surface of the distribution plate and the inner bottom surface of the hopper are provided with through holes. Multiple actuating plates are installed at equal intervals on the top surface of the distribution plate.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, support legs are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom surface of the fixing frame, and support pads are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of each support leg.
[0014] A method for continuous protein extraction includes the following steps: S1: Add the extract into the hopper, and then add the protein raw material into the mixing tank. After the addition is complete, by controlling the start of the dual-shaft motor, the stirring shaft, mounting plate and connecting shaft can be driven to rotate inside the mixing tank to stir the protein raw material, so that the extract can be fully mixed and reacted with the protein raw material, so that the protein in the protein raw material can be fully extracted. S2: When the surface of the arc-shaped block 1 contacts the contact head, it can drive the plug rod to move back and forth inside the mixing tank. During the movement, it can drive multiple arc-shaped baffles to move back and forth inside the mixing tank, causing the protein raw materials and extract liquid inside the mixing tank to fluctuate again, so that the protein stock solution and extract liquid produce a aggregation and dispersion reaction inside the mixing tank, thereby enabling the protein raw materials and extract liquid inside the mixing tank to mix better, thereby improving the speed and effect of protein extraction. S3: When the arc-shaped block on the outside of the rotating frame continuously contacts the contact plate, the extension plate can be driven into the interior of the box by the contact plate. This means that the snap-fit plate can continuously squeeze the airbag. During the continuous squeezing process, the air inside the airbag can be discharged through the connecting pipe and then enter the interior of the rectangular tube. It can then enter the interior of the air distribution frame through the insertion pipe and finally be discharged into the mixing tank through multiple nozzles installed on the outside of the air distribution frame. This can generate bubbles inside the mixing tank, thereby assisting in the mixing of protein raw materials and extract liquid inside the mixing tank, thereby achieving the purpose of further improving the protein extraction effect. S4: When the dual-axis motor drives the crossbar to rotate, it can also drive the distribution plate to rotate inside the hopper. Since the top surface of the distribution plate and the bottom surface of the hopper are both provided with through holes, the extract inside the hopper can leak into the mixing tank when the two through holes overlap under the rotation of the distribution plate, thus enabling the intermittent feeding of the extract.
[0015] The present invention provides a continuous protein extraction device and extraction method, the beneficial effects of which include: 1. By setting up an accelerated extraction mechanism, when the surface of the arc-shaped block contacts the contact head, it can drive the insertion rod to move back and forth inside the mixing tank. During the movement, it can drive multiple arc-shaped baffles to move back and forth inside the mixing tank, causing the protein raw material and extract liquid inside the mixing tank to fluctuate again, so that the protein stock solution and extract liquid produce a aggregation and dispersion reaction inside the mixing tank, thereby enabling the protein raw material and extract liquid inside the mixing tank to mix better, thereby improving the speed and effect of protein extraction.
[0016] 2. By setting up an auxiliary extraction mechanism, when the arc-shaped block on the outer side of the rotating frame continuously contacts the contact plate, the extension plate can be driven into the interior of the chamber by the contact plate. This causes the snap-fit plate to continuously compress the airbag. During the continuous compression process, the air inside the airbag can be discharged through the connecting pipe and then enter the interior of the rectangular tube. It can then enter the interior of the air distribution frame through the insertion pipe and finally be discharged into the mixing tank through multiple nozzles installed on the outside of the air distribution frame. This causes bubbles to be generated inside the mixing tank, thereby assisting in the mixing of protein raw materials and extractant inside the mixing tank, thus achieving the purpose of further improving the protein extraction effect.
[0017] 3. By setting up an intermittent feeding mechanism, when the dual-shaft motor drives the crossbar to rotate, it can also drive the distribution plate to rotate inside the hopper. Since the top surface of the distribution plate and the bottom surface of the hopper are both provided with through holes, the extract inside the hopper can only leak into the mixing tank when the two through holes overlap under the rotation of the distribution plate. This enables intermittent feeding of the extract, avoiding the problem of uneven mixing caused by adding the extract into the mixing tank all at once, thereby further improving the protein extraction effect.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, 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, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Reference Figures 1-8 The present invention provides a technical solution: a continuous protein extraction device, including a fixed frame 1, a mixing tank 2 fixedly installed inside the fixed frame 1, a hopper 3 installed at the top of the mixing tank 2, a dual-shaft motor 4 installed inside the hopper 3, an acceleration extraction mechanism 7 arranged outside the mixing tank 2, an auxiliary extraction mechanism 8 arranged above the fixed frame 1, and an intermittent feeding mechanism 9 arranged inside the hopper 3. A stirring shaft 10 is rotatably mounted inside the mixing tank 2. Two mounting plates 11 are fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the stirring shaft 10. Four connecting shafts 12 are fixedly connected between the two mounting plates 11. Stirring blades 13 are fixedly mounted on the outer side of each of the four connecting shafts 12. One end of the stirring shaft 10 is fixedly connected to one of the output ends of the dual-shaft motor 4. One end of the stirring shaft 10 extends to the outer side of the mixing tank 2. Support legs 5 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom surface of the fixing frame 1. Support pads 6 are fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of each support leg 5. The support legs 5 and support pads 6 make the whole device more stable during use.
[0023] In actual use, the extract is first added into the hopper 3, and then the protein raw material is added into the mixing tank 2. After the addition is completed, the start of the dual-shaft motor 4 is controlled to drive the stirring shaft 10, the mounting plate 11 and the connecting shaft 12 to rotate inside the mixing tank 2, thereby stirring the protein raw material. This allows the extract to fully mix and react with the protein raw material, so that the protein in the protein raw material can be fully extracted before proceeding to the subsequent processes.
[0024] The accelerated extraction mechanism 7 includes a circular mounting plate 701, which is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the mixing tank 2. A connecting plate 702 is rotatably mounted inside the circular mounting plate 701. A rotating plate 703 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the connecting plate 702. A base frame 704 is fixedly connected to one end of the stirring shaft 10 extending to the outside of the mixing tank 2. Multiple connecting plates 705 are fixedly mounted on the outside of the base frame 704. An outer ring 706 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the connecting plates 705. A connecting column 707 is fixedly connected between the outer ring 706 and the rotating plate 703. The inner surface of the mixing tank 2... The wall is movably connected with multiple plug-in rods 708, and each plug-in rod 708 is provided with a spring 709 on its outer side. One end of the plug-in rod 708 is fixedly installed with a contact head 711, and the other end of the plug-in rod 708 is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped lever 710. One end of the spring 709 is fixedly connected to one side of the contact head 711, and the other end of the spring 709 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mixing tank 2. The arc-shaped lever 710 is arc-shaped. Multiple arc-shaped blocks 712 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the rotating disk 703, and the number of arc-shaped blocks 712 corresponds to the number of contact heads 711.
[0025] During operation, when the protein raw material and extractant are mixed and extracted, that is, when the dual-axis motor 4 is started, it drives the base frame 704 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating disk 703 to rotate under the action of the connecting column 707. When the rotating disk 703 rotates, it synchronously drives multiple arc-shaped blocks 712 inside the rotating disk 703 to perform circular motion. Since the arc-shaped blocks 712 are arc-shaped, when the surface of the arc-shaped blocks 712 contacts the contact head 711, it drives the plug rod 708 to move back and forth inside the mixing tank 2. During the movement, it drives multiple arc-shaped baffles 710 to move back and forth inside the mixing tank 2, causing the protein raw material and extractant inside the mixing tank 2 to fluctuate again, so that the protein stock solution and extractant produce a aggregation and dispersion reaction inside the mixing tank 2, thereby enabling the protein raw material and extractant inside the mixing tank 2 to mix better, thereby improving the speed and effect of protein extraction. The accelerated extraction mechanism 7 can improve the mixing effect of protein raw material and extractant, thereby increasing the protein extraction speed.
[0026] The auxiliary extraction mechanism 8 includes a crossbar 801, which is fixedly connected to another output end of the dual-axis motor 4. Connecting posts 802 are fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom surface of the crossbar 801. A rotating frame 803 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting posts 802. Multiple arc-shaped blocks 804 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating frame 803. A housing 805 is fixedly installed at each of the four corners of the top surface of the fixed frame 1. An airbag 819 is installed inside the housing 805. A snap-fit plate 818 is movably engaged inside the housing 805. One side of the snap-fit plate 818 is bonded to one side of the airbag 819. An extension plate 810 is fixedly installed on one side of the snap-fit plate 818. The top surface of the extension plate 810 is fixed... A contact plate 811 is fixedly installed. A connecting pipe 806 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the housing 805. A one-way valve 807 is installed on the outside of the connecting pipe 806. An air inlet pipe 808 is fixedly connected to the rear of the housing 805. A one-way valve 809 is installed on the outside of the air inlet pipe 808. A rectangular pipe 813 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the connecting pipe 806. A plug pipe 814 is fixedly connected to one side of the rectangular pipe 813. A fixing block 815 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the arc-shaped lever 710. An air distribution frame 816 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 815. Multiple nozzles 817 are fixedly connected to one side of the air distribution frame 816. The plug pipe 814 and the fixing block 815 are interconnected.
[0027] During operation, when the dual-axis motor 4 starts, it drives the crossbar 801 to rotate synchronously, which in turn drives the rotating frame 803 to rotate outside the mixing tank 2. When the arc-shaped block 804 on the outside of the rotating frame 803 continuously contacts the contact plate 811, the extension plate 810 is driven by the contact plate 811 to enter the interior of the housing 805. This causes the snap-fit plate 818 to continuously compress the airbag 819. During the continuous compression, the air inside the airbag 819 is discharged through the connecting pipe 806 and enters the interior of the rectangular tube 813. Then, it enters the interior of the air distribution frame 816 through the insertion pipe 814. Finally, it is discharged into the mixing tank 2 through multiple nozzles 817 installed on the outside of the air distribution frame 816, which generates bubbles inside the mixing tank 2. This helps to mix the protein raw materials and extract liquid inside the mixing tank 2, thereby further improving the protein extraction effect.
[0028] Furthermore, as the gas is discharged into the mixing tank 2, the arc-shaped baffle 710 can drive the gas distribution frame 816 to move synchronously inside the mixing tank 2. That is, when the arc-shaped baffle 710 oscillates the protein raw material and extract liquid inside the mixing tank 2, it can also synchronously drive the nozzle 817 to move, changing the position of the nozzle 817, so that the discharged bubbles can cover a larger area inside the mixing tank 2, thereby further improving the reaction effect of the protein raw material and extract liquid, which can effectively increase the protein extraction rate.
[0029] The intermittent feeding mechanism 9 includes a transmission column 901, with a distribution plate 902 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission column 901. The bottom surface of the distribution plate 902 is in contact with the inner bottom surface of the hopper 3. Both the top surface of the distribution plate 902 and the inner bottom surface of the hopper 3 are provided with through holes 903. Multiple actuating plates 904 are equidistantly installed on the top surface of the distribution plate 902. Through the multiple actuating plates 904, when the distribution plate 902 rotates, the actuating plates 904 can rotate synchronously, which can fully mix the extract in the hopper 3. Then, when the extract enters the mixing tank 2, it can react better with the protein raw materials and improve the protein extraction effect.
[0030] During operation, as the dual-axis motor 4 drives the crossbar 801 to rotate, the crossbar 801 also drives the distribution plate 902 to rotate inside the hopper 3. Since the top surface of the distribution plate 902 and the bottom surface of the hopper 3 are both provided with through holes 903, the extraction liquid inside the hopper 3 can only leak into the mixing tank 2 when the two through holes 903 overlap under the rotation of the distribution plate 902. This allows for intermittent feeding of the extraction liquid, avoiding the problem of uneven mixing caused by adding the extraction liquid into the mixing tank 2 all at once, thereby further improving the protein extraction effect.
[0031] A method for continuous protein extraction includes the following steps: S1: Add the extract into the hopper 3, and then add the protein raw material into the mixing tank 2. After the addition is completed, by controlling the start of the dual-shaft motor 4, the stirring shaft 10, the mounting plate 11 and the connecting shaft 12 can be driven to rotate inside the mixing tank 2 to stir the protein raw material, so that the extract can be fully mixed and reacted with the protein raw material, so that the protein in the protein raw material can be fully extracted. S2: When the surface of the arc-shaped block 712 contacts the contact head 711, it can drive the plug rod 708 to move back and forth inside the mixing tank 2. During the movement, it can drive multiple arc-shaped baffles 710 to move back and forth inside the mixing tank 2, causing the protein raw material and extract liquid inside the mixing tank 2 to fluctuate again, so that the protein stock solution and extract liquid produce a aggregation and dispersion reaction inside the mixing tank 2, thereby enabling the protein raw material and extract liquid inside the mixing tank 2 to mix better, thereby improving the speed and effect of protein extraction. S3: When the arc-shaped block 804 on the outside of the rotating frame 803 continuously contacts the contact plate 811, the extension plate 810 can be driven by the contact plate 811 to enter the interior of the box 805. This can drive the snap-fit plate 818 to continuously squeeze the airbag 819. During the continuous squeezing process, the air inside the airbag 819 can be discharged through the connecting pipe 806 and then enter the interior of the rectangular pipe 813. It can then enter the interior of the air distribution frame 816 through the insertion pipe 814. Finally, it can be discharged into the mixing tank 2 through the multiple nozzles 817 installed on the outside of the air distribution frame 816. This can generate bubbles inside the mixing tank 2, thereby assisting in the mixing of protein raw materials and extract liquid inside the mixing tank 2, thereby achieving the purpose of further improving the protein extraction effect. S4: When the dual-axis motor 4 drives the crossbar 801 to rotate, it can also drive the distribution plate 902 to rotate inside the hopper 3. Since the top surface of the distribution plate 902 and the bottom surface of the hopper 3 are both provided with through holes 903, the extraction liquid inside the hopper 3 can only leak into the mixing tank 2 when the two through holes 903 overlap under the rotation of the distribution plate 902, thereby realizing the intermittent feeding of the extraction liquid.
[0032] Specifically, the working process or principle of this continuous protein extraction device and method is as follows: In use, the extractant is first added to the hopper 3, and then the protein raw material is added to the mixing tank 2. After addition, by controlling the start of the dual-shaft motor 4, the stirring shaft 10, mounting plate 11, and connecting shaft 12 are driven to rotate inside the mixing tank 2, agitating the protein raw material. This allows the extractant to fully mix and react with the protein raw material, ensuring that the protein in the raw material is fully extracted. Subsequent processes are then carried out. When the arc-shaped block 712... When the contact head 711 comes into contact with the contact surface, it can drive the insertion rod 708 to move back and forth inside the mixing tank 2. During the movement, it can drive multiple arc-shaped baffles 710 to move back and forth inside the mixing tank 2, causing further agitation of the protein raw material and extract inside the mixing tank 2. This allows the protein stock solution and extract to undergo a aggregation and dispersion reaction inside the mixing tank 2, thereby enabling better mixing of the protein raw material and extract inside the mixing tank 2, thus improving the speed and effect of protein extraction. When the arc-shaped block 804 on the outside of the rotating frame 803 continuously contacts the contact plate 811, it can drive the contact plate 811 to move back and forth. The extension plate 810 enters the interior of the housing 805, which in turn causes the snap-fit plate 818 to continuously compress the airbag 819. During this compression, the air inside the airbag 819 is expelled through the connecting pipe 806 and enters the rectangular tube 813. From there, it enters the air distribution frame 816 through the insertion pipe 814 and finally exits through multiple nozzles 817 mounted on the outside of the air distribution frame 816 into the mixing tank 2. This generates bubbles inside the mixing tank 2, aiding in the mixing of the protein raw materials and the extract, thereby further improving the mixing efficiency. The purpose of improving protein extraction is that, while the dual-axis motor 4 drives the crossbar 801 to rotate, the crossbar 801 also drives the distribution plate 902 to rotate inside the hopper 3. Since the top surface of the distribution plate 902 and the bottom surface of the hopper 3 are both provided with through holes 903, the extraction liquid inside the hopper 3 can only leak into the mixing tank 2 when the two through holes 903 overlap under the rotation of the distribution plate 902. This allows for intermittent feeding of the extraction liquid, avoiding the problem of uneven mixing caused by adding the extraction liquid into the mixing tank 2 all at once, thereby further improving the protein extraction effect.
[0033] It should be noted that the dual-axis motor 4 is a device or equipment that exists in the prior art, or a device or equipment that can be implemented by the prior art. Its power supply, specific composition and principle are clear to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail.

10. A method for continuous protein extraction, applicable to the continuous protein extraction apparatus of claim 9, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: S1: Add the extract into the hopper (3), and then add the protein raw material into the mixing tank (2). After the addition is completed, by controlling the start of the dual-shaft motor (4), the stirring shaft (10), the mounting plate (11) and the connecting shaft (12) can be driven to rotate inside the mixing tank (2) to stir the protein raw material, so that the extract can be fully mixed and reacted with the protein raw material, so that the protein in the protein raw material can be fully extracted. S2: When the surface of the arc-shaped block (712) contacts the contact head (711), it can drive the plug rod (708) to move back and forth inside the mixing tank (2). During the movement, it can drive multiple arc-shaped baffles (710) to move back and forth inside the mixing tank (2), causing the protein raw material and extract liquid inside the mixing tank (2) to fluctuate again, so that the protein stock solution and extract liquid produce a aggregation reaction inside the mixing tank (2), thereby enabling the protein raw material and extract liquid inside the mixing tank (2) to mix better, thereby improving the speed and effect of protein extraction. S3: When the arc-shaped block 2 (804) on the outside of the rotating frame (803) continuously contacts the contact plate (811), the extension plate (810) can be driven by the contact plate (811) to enter the interior of the box (805), which can drive the snap plate (818) to continuously squeeze the airbag (819). During the continuous squeezing process, the air inside the airbag (819) can be discharged through the connecting pipe (806) and then enter the interior of the rectangular tube (813). It can then enter the interior of the air distribution frame (816) through the insertion pipe (814) and finally be discharged into the mixing tank (2) through the multiple nozzles (817) installed on the outside of the air distribution frame (816). This can generate bubbles inside the mixing tank (2), thereby assisting in the mixing of protein raw materials and extract liquid inside the mixing tank (2), thereby achieving the purpose of further improving the protein extraction effect. S4: When the dual-axis motor (4) drives the crossbar (801) to rotate, it can also drive the distribution plate (902) to rotate inside the hopper (3) under the rotation of the crossbar (801). Since the top surface of the distribution plate (902) and the bottom surface of the hopper (3) are both provided with through holes (903), when the two through holes (903) overlap under the rotation of the distribution plate (902), the extract inside the hopper (3) can leak into the mixing tank (2), thereby enabling the intermittent feeding of the extract.
