Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of sea cucumber active ingredient preparation technology, specifically to a sea cucumber active ingredient stabilization delivery preparation device. Background Technology
[0002] Sea cucumbers, as a marine biological resource rich in active ingredients such as saponins and polysaccharides, hold significant value in the research and development of functional foods, health products, and pharmaceuticals. The active ingredients in sea cucumbers (such as saponins and polysaccharides) possess antioxidant and immunomodulatory functions. Delivery preparation is a crucial step in effectively delivering extracted and stabilized sea cucumber active ingredients to the human body or specific sites of action. Through rational delivery system design, the bioavailability of active ingredients can be improved, their metabolic loss in vivo reduced, and their biological activity enhanced.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0020] This invention optimizes an existing device for the stable delivery and preparation of active sea cucumber components. When workers pour crushed sea cucumber and its solution into the tank, an ultrasonic transducer vibrates the solution containing sea cucumber fragments in the extraction tank. The ultrasonic cavitation effect disrupts the cell walls of the sea cucumber fragments, and the rotation of a rotating component further agitates the solution, ensuring uniform mixing of the active components and the solution, thus improving extraction efficiency. After extracting the active components from the sea cucumber, the feed inlet is opened, allowing the solution in the extraction tank to flow into a centrifuge tank. The rotation of the rotating component drives the centrifuge assembly within the tank, causing the centrifuge cylinder to rotate and centrifuge the solution. Because the feed inlet is located inside the centrifuge cylinder, the rotation of the centrifuge assembly facilitates the filtration of impurities, leaving them in the centrifuge cylinder. The solution can then move outside the centrifuge cylinder and into an emulsification tank for emulsification. At this point, workers can add more sea cucumber fragments back into the tank. The solution from crushed sea cucumbers allows for repeated operation of the device, improving its practicality. When the solution moves to the emulsification tank, the addition box is opened to add materials such as chitosan and gelatin. The rotation of the centrifuge drives the stirring component to mix the solution containing active ingredients with the added materials, forming a viscous emulsion that enhances stability and encapsulation rate. Simultaneously opening the discharge pipe and connecting pipe allows the inner discharge pipe to spray out the core material containing sea cucumber active ingredients, while the outer concentric connecting pipe sprays out the wall material (such as a chitosan-sodium alginate complex). This forms core-shell microcapsules, which are then transported by a conveyor belt in the drying tank and dried and solidified by a heating wire. This allows the device to achieve stable delivery of sea cucumber active substances, improving its practicality and avoiding the need for delivery between different devices, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and could lead to deactivation of active ingredients due to temperature increases during delivery, thus affecting material preparation.

[0035] 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. 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.
[0036] Example 1
[0037] Please see Figures 1-9 This invention provides a device for the stable delivery and preparation of active ingredients from sea cucumbers, comprising:
[0038] The extraction mechanism 100 includes a tank 101, an extraction groove 102 is provided in the tank 101, an ultrasonic transducer 105 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the extraction groove 102, and a rotating assembly 110 is rotatably connected in the extraction groove 102.
[0039] The filtration mechanism 200 includes a centrifugal tank 201, a centrifugal cylinder 202 with multiple through holes in the centrifugal tank 201, a centrifugal assembly 210 rotatably connected in the centrifugal tank 201, a connecting assembly 220 on the centrifugal assembly 210, and a discharge port 205 with a control valve at the top of the centrifugal tank 201. The centrifugal tank 201 is connected to the extraction tank 102 through the discharge port 205.
[0040] The emulsification mechanism 300 includes an emulsification tank 301, a stirring assembly 310 in the emulsification tank 301, a cleaning assembly 320 on the stirring assembly 310, a feed pipe 302 with a control valve on one side wall of the emulsification tank 301, and an addition box 303 containing materials such as chitosan and gelatin fixedly connected to one side of the tank body 101.
[0041] The drying mechanism 400 includes a drying tank 401, a conveyor belt 402 with a drive motor installed in the drying tank 401, a heating wire 403 with a controllable temperature fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the drying tank 401, and a discharge pipe 404 with a control valve installed at the bottom of the emulsification tank 301.
[0042] In this embodiment, the specific usage process is as follows:
[0043] When using the device, after the staff mixes the crushed sea cucumber with the solution and pours it into the tank 101, the ultrasonic transducer 105 works to oscillate the solution mixed with sea cucumber fragments in the extraction tank 102. The ultrasonic cavitation effect can destroy the cell walls of the sea cucumber fragments, and the rotation of the rotating component 110 can stir the solution, so as to achieve uniform mixing of the active ingredients in the sea cucumber and the solution, thereby improving the extraction efficiency.
[0044] After extracting the active ingredients from the sea cucumber into a solution, the feed port 205 is opened, allowing the solution in the extraction tank 102 to move down into the centrifuge tank 201. By rotating the rotating component 110, the centrifuge component 210 can be driven to rotate in the centrifuge tank 201, causing the centrifuge cylinder 202 to rotate, thereby causing the solution to be centrifuged. Since the feed port 205 is located inside the centrifuge cylinder 202, when the centrifuge component 210 rotates, it is convenient to filter out impurities in the solution and leave them in the centrifuge cylinder 202, while the solution can move outside the centrifuge cylinder 202. By opening the feed pipe 302, the solution can be moved to the emulsification tank 301 for emulsification. At this time, the operator can add the solution containing crushed sea cucumber back into the tank 101, which facilitates repeated operation of the device and improves the practicality of the device.
[0045] When the solution moves into the emulsification tank 301, the addition box 303 is opened to add materials such as chitosan and gelatin into the emulsification tank 301. The rotation of the centrifuge cylinder 202 drives the stirring component 310 to rotate and stir, so that the solution with active ingredients and the added materials are mixed to form a more viscous emulsion, which enhances stability and encapsulation rate.
[0046] By simultaneously opening the discharge pipe 404 and the connecting pipe 406, the inner discharge pipe 404 sprays out the core material containing sea cucumber active ingredients, while the outer concentric connecting pipe 406 sprays out the wall material (such as chitosan-sodium alginate complex). This causes the material to form core-shell structured microcapsules. The capsules are then transported in the drying tank 401 by the conveyor belt 402. Simultaneously, the capsules are dried and cured by the heating wire 403. This allows the device to achieve stable delivery and preparation of sea cucumber active substances, improving the device's practicality. It avoids the need to deliver the sea cucumber active substances to different devices, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot guarantee that the temperature rise during delivery will not cause the active ingredients to be deactivated, thus affecting the preparation of the material.
[0047] Example 2
[0048] Please see Figures 1-2 , Figures 4-5 and Figure 8The rotating assembly 110 includes a motor 110a, a rotating roller 110b, and a stirring plate 110c. The motor 110a is fixedly connected to the top of the tank 101, the rotating roller 110b is fixedly connected to the motor 110a, and multiple stirring plates 110c are fixedly connected to the rotating roller 110b.
[0049] Please see Figures 1-2 , Figures 4-5 and Figure 8 The stirring plate 110c is provided with a filter tank 110d. The stirring plate 110c is provided with a plurality of conical connecting holes 110e, and the outer diameter of the connecting hole 110e is larger than the inner diameter. The filter tank 110d is provided with a filter screen 110f, and the hole diameter on the filter screen 110f is smaller than that of the connecting hole 110e.
[0050] Please see Figures 1-3 Multiple temperature sensors 103 are fixedly connected to one side of the tank 101, multiple pH meters 104 are fixedly connected to one side of the tank 101, and a control panel 106 is fixedly connected to the tank 101.
[0051] Please see Figures 1-3 The tank body 101 is equipped with a temperature control tank 107, the temperature control tank 107 is equipped with a condenser 108, and the feed inlet at the top of the tank body 101 is equipped with a cover plate 109.
[0052] In this embodiment, when the worker pours the crushed sea cucumber and solution mixture into tank 101, the ultrasonic transducer 105 operates to vibrate the solution containing sea cucumber fragments in extraction tank 102. The ultrasonic cavitation effect breaks down the cell walls of the sea cucumber fragments. Simultaneously, the motor 110a drives the rotating roller 110b to rotate and stir the stirring plate 110c, ensuring uniform mixing of the solution with the active ingredients in the sea cucumber. Furthermore, since the stirring plate 110c is equipped with a filter tank 110d, and through a conical connecting hole 110e, the crushed sea cucumber fragments can be moved into the filter tank 110d for collection. This allows the device to perform preliminary filtration of the sea cucumber fragments during the extraction of active ingredients. Further, since a filter screen 110f is fixed in the middle of the filter tank 110d, the sea cucumber fragments entering the filter tank 110d are retained in the filter screen 110f when the stirring plate 110c rotates. The solution flows through the filter tank 110d in the stirring plate 110c, facilitating the collection of sea cucumber fragments. The control panel 106 allows operators to easily set the workflow and operate the device. During preparation, multiple temperature sensors 103 and pH meters 104 are installed in the four inner tanks of the tank 101. The temperature sensors 103 monitor the temperature during the preparation of sea cucumber active ingredients, and the pH meters 104 detect the pH value of the solution. This prevents the sea cucumber active ingredients from being degraded due to temperature and pH factors, thus improving the device's practicality. Furthermore, the condenser 108 in the temperature-controlled tank 107 within the tank 101 enables low-temperature ultrasonic-assisted extraction of sea cucumber active ingredients, preventing internal heating that could deactivate the active ingredients and affect the preparation process.
[0053] Example 3
[0054] Please see Figures 2-5 The centrifugal assembly 210 includes a connecting rod 210a and centrifugal plates 210b. The top of the connecting rod 210a is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating roller 110b. Multiple centrifugal plates 210b are fixedly connected to the connecting rod 210a. A first gear 210c is provided on the connecting rod 210a. A rotating groove 203 is provided on the top of the centrifugal tank 201.
[0055] Please see Figures 4-6The connecting assembly 220 includes a circular toothed groove 220a, a rotating shaft 220b, a second gear 220c, and a limiting plate 220d. A limiting groove 204 is provided in the rotating groove 203. The limiting plate 220d is rotatably connected to the limiting groove 204, and multiple circular grooves are provided on the limiting plate 220d. The connecting rod 210a is rotatably connected to the circular grooves on the limiting plate 220d. The rotating shaft 220b is rotatably connected to the circular grooves on the limiting plate 220d. The second gear 220c is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. On 220b, the circular tooth groove 220a is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating groove 203, the second gear 220c meshes with the circular tooth groove 220a, the first gear 210c meshes with the second gear 220c, the bottom of the limiting plate 220d is fixedly connected to the sealing plate 220e, the sealing plate 220e is rotatably connected in the rotating groove 203, the bottom of the sealing plate 220e is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 220f with a through hole, and the connecting plate 220f is fixedly connected in the centrifuge cylinder 202.
[0056] In this embodiment, when the device extracts the active ingredients of sea cucumber into a solution in the extraction tank 102 and opens the feed port 205, the solution containing the active ingredients of sea cucumber in the extraction tank 102 enters the centrifuge tank 201. Since the feed port 205 is located in the inner groove of the centrifuge cylinder 202, after the solution enters the centrifuge tank 202, the motor 110a drives the rotating roller 110b to rotate, which causes the connecting rod 210a, which is fixedly connected to the rotating roller 110b, to rotate. This causes the connecting rod 210a to drive the centrifuge plate 210b to rotate, thereby causing the solution in the centrifuge tank 201 to rotate and centrifuge. This allows the solution to pass through the through hole in the centrifuge cylinder 202 and move to the outside of the centrifuge cylinder 202, facilitating the filtration and centrifugation of the active ingredients in the solution. Furthermore, since the first gear 210c is fixed on the connecting rod 210a, and the circular tooth groove 2... 20a is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating groove 203. The second gear 220c meshes with the circular tooth groove 220a, and the first gear 210c meshes with the second gear 220c. When the first gear 210c rotates, the second gear 220c can drive the rotating shaft 220b to rotate around the first gear 210c in the circular tooth groove 220a. This allows the limiting plate 220d to drive the sealing plate 220e to rotate, and through the connecting plate 220f, it can drive the centrifuge cylinder 202 to rotate and centrifuge, thus preventing sea cucumber fragments from adhering to the centrifuge cylinder 202 and affecting the filtration effect. Furthermore, during centrifugal filtration, the condenser 108 in the temperature control tank 107 can achieve centrifugal filtration preparation of the solution at a low temperature, avoiding the internal temperature rise of the device during preparation, which would cause the active ingredients to be deactivated and affect the preparation of the active ingredients.
[0057] Example 4
[0058] Please see Figures 4-5 and Figure 7The stirring assembly 310 includes a semi-circular rack 310a, a third gear 310b, and a stirring roller 310c. The semi-circular rack 310a is fixedly connected to the bottom of the centrifuge cylinder 202. The top of the stirring roller 310c is provided with a fixing rod with a horizontal plate, and the fixing rod on the stirring roller 310c is fixedly connected to the third gear 310b. The third gear 310b is rotatably connected to the inner groove of the tank body 101. The semi-circular rack 310a meshes with the third gear 310b.
[0059] Please see Figures 4-5 and Figure 7 The cleaning assembly 320 includes a fourth gear 320a, a rotating rod 320b, a base plate 320c, and a scraper 320d. The third gear 310b meshes with the fourth gear 320a. The fourth gear 320a is rotatably connected to the inner groove of the tank 101. The rotating rod 320b is fixedly connected to the fourth gear 320a. The base plate 320c is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 320b. The scraper 320d is fixedly connected to both sides of the base plate 320c.
[0060] Please see Figures 1-3 and Figure 9 A placement box 405 containing core and shell material is fixedly connected to one side of the tank body 101. A connecting pipe 406 is provided on the placement box 405, and the discharge pipe 404 is located in the inner cavity of the connecting pipe 406.
[0061] In this embodiment, after the solution containing sea cucumber active ingredients is centrifuged and filtered, it is moved into the emulsification tank 301 by opening the feed pipe 302. Since the centrifuge cylinder 202 and the bottom of the centrifuge tank 201 are sealed, downward leakage of the solution is prevented. Because the stirring roller 310c is rotatably connected to the top wall of the emulsification tank 301 via a fixed rod at its top, the fixed rod can rotate. It is fixed to the fixed rod by a third gear 310b, which meshes with a semi-circular rack 310a. When the centrifuge cylinder 202 rotates, it causes the semi-circular rack 310a at its bottom to rotate, which in turn drives the... The rotation of the three gears 310b and the fixed rod causes the stirring roller 310c to rotate and stir, facilitating the uniform mixing of the solution with the materials in the addition tank 303, resulting in a more viscous emulsion. Furthermore, since the top of the stirring roller 310c has a fixed rod with a horizontal plate, the rotation of the fixed rod allows the stirring roller 310c to stir and mix within a certain area of the emulsification tank 301, improving the stirring efficiency of the device. Furthermore, since the third gear 310b meshes with the fourth gear 320a, when the third gear 310b rotates, the fourth gear 320a drives the rotating rod 320b to rotate, causing the bottom plate 3... The rotation of the bottom plate 320c and scraper 320d facilitates the stirring of the bottom plate of the emulsification tank 301 by the bottom plate 320c, while simultaneously scraping the side wall of the emulsification tank 301 by the scraper 320d, thus avoiding waste during the preparation process. Furthermore, when the device prepares the sea cucumber active ingredients into an emulsion, by simultaneously opening the discharge pipe 404 and the connecting pipe 406, the emulsion can be moved down into the drying tank 401 through the discharge pipe 404. At the same time, the wall material (such as the chitosan-sodium alginate complex) in the placement box 405 is also moved down into the drying tank 401 through the connecting pipe 406, thereby causing the inner discharge pipe 404 to spray out the sea cucumber active ingredients... When the core material is separated, the outer concentric connecting tube 406 sprays out the wall material (such as chitosan-sodium alginate complex), which can then form core-shell structured microcapsules. After the sea cucumber active ingredients are encapsulated by the wall material to form capsules, the capsules are transported in the drying tank 401 by the conveyor belt 402 and dried and solidified by the heating wire 403. This allows the device to achieve stable delivery and preparation of sea cucumber active substances, improving the practicality of the device and avoiding the need to deliver and prepare sea cucumber active substances in different devices, which would lead to time-consuming and labor-intensive operations and make it impossible to guarantee that the temperature rise during delivery would cause the active ingredients to be deactivated, thus affecting the preparation of the material.
