[0065] S52: Drive multiple freezing columns 64 to rotate, and the multiple freezing columns 64 crush and stir the probiotics in solid form in the preparation well 32.

[0066] like Figures 4 to 12 As shown, in order to facilitate the implementation of a probiotic powder processing method, a probiotic powder processing device is designed. The structure and function of the probiotic powder processing device are described in detail below.

[0067] A probiotic powder processing device includes a fixed bracket 11, a support ring 12 fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed bracket 11, a control ring 13 fixedly connected to the support ring 12, two pairs of arc plates 14 slidably connected inside the control ring 13, and positioning screws for positioning the arc plates 14 are threadedly connected to the control ring 13.

[0068] The support ring 12 is provided with a material discharge port, and the fixed bracket 11 is fixedly connected to the telescopic mechanism I 21. The telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism I 21 is fixedly connected to the arc baffle 22, and the arc baffle 22 is slidably connected inside the material discharge port.

[0069] A rotating disk 31 is rotatably connected to the support ring 12. The rotating disk 31 is provided with a plurality of preparation holes 32. A power mechanism I for driving the rotating disk 31 to rotate is fixedly connected to the support ring 12. The power mechanism I is preferably a servo motor.

[0070] A rotating ring 41 is rotatably connected to the fixed bracket 11. The rotating ring 41 is fastened to the rotating disk 31. Multiple sensors 42 are fixedly connected to the rotating ring 41. Each sensor 42 can contact two pairs of arc plates 14.

[0071] Multiple rotating circular plates I51 are rotatably connected to the rotating ring 41. The multiple rotating circular plates I51 are located on the upper side of multiple preparation holes 32 respectively. Each rotating circular plate I51 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 52. The multiple connecting pipes 52 are rotatably connected to the closing ring 53. The multiple connecting pipes 52 are respectively connected to the multiple preparation holes 32.

[0072] Multiple telescopic mechanisms II 61 are fixedly connected to the rotating ring 41. Each telescopic mechanism II 61 is fixedly connected to a lifting bracket 62 at its telescopic end. Each lifting bracket 62 is rotatably connected to a rotating circular plate II 63. A power mechanism II for driving the rotating circular plate II 63 to rotate is fixedly connected to the lifting bracket 62. The power mechanism II is preferably a servo motor. Multiple freezing columns 64 are fixedly connected to each rotating circular plate II 63. The multiple freezing columns 64 on each rotating circular plate II 63 are all clearance-fitted onto the corresponding rotating circular plate I 51. The lower ends of the multiple freezing columns 64 on each rotating circular plate II 63 are fixedly connected to the cutting mesh plate 65. The multiple cutting mesh plates 65 are respectively located in multiple preparation holes 32.

[0073] Multiple telescopic mechanisms II 61 are connected to multiple sensors 42 respectively, and multiple power mechanisms II are connected to multiple sensors 42 respectively;

[0074] A vacuum chamber 71 is fixedly connected to the fixed bracket 11, and a vacuum pipe 72 is fixedly connected to the vacuum chamber 71. A sealing ring 53 is rotatably connected to the vacuum chamber 71. The connecting pipe 52 can communicate with the vacuum chamber 71. A vacuum pump is installed on the vacuum pipe 72.

[0075] An air injection chamber 81 is fixedly connected to the fixed bracket 11, an air injection pipe 82 is fixedly connected to the air injection chamber 81, a sealing ring 53 is rotatably connected to the air injection chamber 81, the connecting pipe 52 can communicate with the air injection chamber 81, and an air pump is provided on the air injection pipe 82.

[0076] In use, the liquid containing probiotics is injected into the preparation hole 32 through the connecting pipe 52. The power mechanism I is started, and the output shaft of the power mechanism I starts to rotate. The output shaft of the power mechanism I drives the rotating disk 31 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating disk 31 drives the multiple preparation holes 32 to move, so that the multiple preparation holes 32 pass through the vacuum chamber 71 in sequence. When the preparation hole 32 containing the probiotic liquid moves to the corresponding position of the vacuum chamber 71, the connecting pipe 52 and the vacuum chamber 71 are connected. The vacuum chamber 71 is provided with a vacuum pipe 72, and a vacuum pump is provided on the vacuum pipe 72. The vacuum pump is used to perform vacuum treatment on the preparation hole 32.

[0077] As the rotating disk 31 rotates, it drives the rotating ring 41 to rotate, which in turn drives multiple sensors 42 to move. This causes the sensors 42 to move to the upper side of the arc plate 14, where they come into contact. The sensors 42 can be contact sensors. They are connected to the telescopic mechanism II 61 and the power mechanism II via conventional technologies. The telescopic mechanism II 61 can be a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod. The telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism II 61 drives the rotating circular plate II 63 to move, which in turn drives the freezing column 64 to move downwards. The freezing column 64 then drives the cutting mesh plate 65 to move downwards.

[0078] Multiple freezing columns 64 are inserted into the probiotic liquid, and at the same time, the cutting mesh plate 65 is inserted into the probiotic liquid. The output shaft of the power mechanism II starts to rotate, and the output shaft of the power mechanism II drives the rotating circular plate II 63 to rotate. The rotating circular plate II 63 drives the multiple freezing columns 64 to rotate, so that the multiple freezing columns 64 rotate in the preparation hole 32. The multiple freezing columns 64 freeze-dry the probiotic liquid in the preparation hole 32.

[0079] At the same time, multiple freezing columns 64 stir the probiotic liquid, and the cutting mesh plate 65 stirs the probiotic liquid, so that the probiotic liquid is still moving in the frozen state, thereby accelerating the freeze-drying process of the probiotic liquid.

[0080] Furthermore, the length of each pair of arc plates 14 is controlled, the time when the sensor 42 is squeezed is controlled, and thus the working time and working time of the telescopic mechanism II 61 and the power mechanism II are controlled. The arc plates 14 are positioned by positioning screws, and the length of the two arc plates 14 is adjusted.

[0081] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, after the probiotics in the preparation hole 32 are freeze-dried to form solid probiotics, the rotating disk 31 continues to drive the preparation hole 32 to move, so that the preparation hole 32 moves to the position corresponding to the air injection chamber 81. At this time, the connecting pipe 52 and the air injection chamber 81 are connected. At the same time, during the rotation of the rotating disk 31, the rotating disk 31 drives the rotating ring 41 to rotate, and the rotating ring 41 drives multiple sensors 42 to move, so that the sensors 42 move to the upper side of the arc plate 14, and the arc plate 14 and the sensors 42 come into contact. The telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism II 61 drives the rotating circular plate II 63 to move, and the rotating circular plate II 63 drives the freezing column 64 to move, so that the freezing column 64 moves downward, and the freezing column 64 drives the cutting mesh plate 65 to move downward.

[0082] Multiple freezing columns 64 are inserted into solid probiotics, and a cutting mesh plate 65 is also inserted into the solid probiotics. The output shaft of the power mechanism II starts to rotate, which drives the rotating disc II 63 to rotate. The rotating disc II 63 drives the multiple freezing columns 64 to rotate, so that the multiple freezing columns 64 rotate within the preparation hole 32. The multiple freezing columns 64 mix and stir the solid probiotics within the preparation hole 32, while the cutting mesh plate 65 cuts the solid probiotics into powder.

[0083] After the probiotic powder is processed, the telescopic mechanism I21 is activated. The telescopic mechanism I21 can be a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod. The telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism I21 drives the arc baffle 22 to move downward, so that the arc baffle 22 disengages from the discharge hole. At the same time, an air pump is installed on the air injection pipe 82. The air pump injects gas into the preparation hole 32, blowing the probiotic powder in the preparation hole 32 out of the discharge hole. The blown probiotic powder is collected and packaged to complete the processing of the probiotic powder.

[0084] like Figure 4 As shown, the rotating disk 31 is provided with multiple preparation holes 32, which can then be repeatedly processed.
