[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0026] The embodiment of the present application provides an agar processing pretreatment device, which can solve the problem in the related art that the crushing and soaking of agar processing cannot be performed simultaneously, which increases the difficulty and cost of operation and affects the work efficiency.

[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 3An agar processing pretreatment device includes: a crushing bin 1, which is provided with a seaweed raw material crushing chamber 2; a crushing mechanism 3, which includes a power mechanism 31 and a crushing part 32, the power mechanism 31 is arranged on the crushing bin 1 and is used to drive the crushing part 32 to rotate, the crushing part 32 is arranged inside the crushing bin 1 and is used to crush the seaweed raw material; the crushing part 32 includes two groups of crushing rollers 321 and two groups of auxiliary rollers 322, the two groups of crushing rollers 321 are relatively rotated and arranged inside the crushing chamber 2, the two groups of auxiliary rollers 322 are relatively rotated and arranged inside the crushing chamber 2, and are located between the two groups of auxiliary rollers 322; a soaking box 4 is provided at the bottom of the crushing bin 1, the soaking box 4 is used to soak and soften the crushed seaweed raw material, a hot water injection pipe 5 is provided on the soaking box 4, and a stirring mechanism 6 is provided inside the soaking box 4.

[0028] In actual operation, the seaweed raw material is fed into the crushing chamber 2 in the crushing bin 1. Then, the power mechanism 31 is started to drive the crushing part 32 to start working. The crushing part 32 is composed of two groups of crushing rollers 321 and two groups of auxiliary rollers 322, which rotate relative to each other to crush the seaweed raw material. In this process, the crushing teeth of the crushing roller 321 and the grooves on the auxiliary roller 322 cooperate with each other, so that the seaweed raw material can be further refined by the auxiliary roller when it is crushed by the crushing roller, so as to achieve a better crushing effect.

[0029] After the crushing is completed, the seaweed raw material directly enters the soaking tank 4 through the outlet at the bottom of the crushing chamber 1. At this time, hot water is injected into the soaking tank 4 through the hot water injection pipe 5, and the hot water is mixed with the seaweed raw material to start the soaking and softening process. At the same time, the stirring mechanism 6 inside the soaking tank 4 starts to work, and the seaweed raw material can be evenly contacted with the hot water during the soaking process through the rotation of the stirring paddle, accelerating the softening process.

[0030] During the whole pretreatment process, the seaweed can be crushed and soaked at the same time, which reduces the number of raw material transportation times, saves manpower and equipment costs, and is more convenient to operate, effectively improving work efficiency. At the same time, the mixing of the stirring mechanism enables the seaweed raw material to be fully crushed and softened, providing high-quality raw materials for subsequent agar processing.

[0031] In this embodiment, the top of the crushing bin 1 is open, and the bottom of the crushing bin 1 is connected to the soaking tank 4.

[0032] It can be understood that the auxiliary roller 322 is provided with a plurality of grooves matched with the crushing teeth of the crushing roller 321 , and the crushing teeth extend into the corresponding grooves.

[0033] The two groups of crushing rollers 321 and two groups of auxiliary rollers 322 of the crushing part 32 start to rotate. The crushing teeth of the crushing roller 321 and the grooves on the auxiliary rollers 322 cooperate with each other to crush and refine the seaweed raw materials. The groove design on the auxiliary rollers 322 makes the crushing process more efficient, and the crushing teeth can penetrate into the grooves to achieve uniform crushing of the raw materials.

[0034] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, a material discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the soaking box 4, and the soaked seaweed raw materials are fed to the next storage process through the material discharge pipe and the outside.

[0035] Preferably, the bottom end of the material discharge pipe in this embodiment is connected to an elevator, and the seaweed raw material is delivered to the purification production line through the elevator.

[0036] Specifically, the present embodiment further includes a bracket 7 , which is disposed on the soaking box 4 , and is used to support the soaking box 4 and the crushing bin 1 .

[0037] The main function of the bracket 7 is to support the soaking box 4 and the crushing bin 1. Since the crushing bin 1 and the soaking box 4 may bear a certain weight and vibration during operation, a stable and strong supporting structure is required to ensure that the entire pretreatment device can operate smoothly.

[0038] Furthermore, the power mechanism 31 in this embodiment includes a group of driving motors 311, a group of reducers 312, a group of driving gears 313 and a group of driven gears 314. A mounting frame is provided on the crushing bin 1, and a group of the reducers 312 are relatively arranged on the mounting frame. The driving motor 311 is arranged on the reducer 312, and the output shaft of the driving motor 311 is connected to the input shaft of the reducer 312; a group of the driving gears 313 and a group of the driven gears 314 are both rotatably arranged on the crushing bin 1, and the driven gears 314 are located in the middle of the driving gears 313, and the driving gears 313 and the adjacent driven gears 314 are meshed with each other, one end of the driving gear 313 is connected to the crushing roller 321, and the other end of the driving gear 313 is connected to the output end of the reducer 312.

[0039] In actual operation, the driving motor 311 is the core component of the power mechanism 31 and is responsible for providing rotational power. It usually uses a motor with sufficient power and stable performance to ensure that the crushing roller 321 can work continuously and stably.

[0040] The output shaft of the driving motor 311 is connected to the input shaft of the reducer 312, and the rotational power of the motor is transmitted to the reducer 312. The reducer 312 is used to reduce the output speed of the driving motor 311 and increase the torque to meet the rotation requirements of the crushing roller 321. One end of the driving gear 313 is connected to the crushing roller 321, and the other end is connected to the output end of the reducer 312; the driven gear 314 is located in the middle of the driving gear 313 and meshes with the adjacent driving gears. The driving gear 313 is driven to rotate by the reducer 312. Since the driving gear 313 and the driven gear 314 are meshed with each other, the driven gear 314 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the crushing roller 321 and the auxiliary roller 322 to rotate at the same time. This gear transmission method can ensure that the rotation speed and direction between the crushing rollers 321 are consistent, and achieve efficient and uniform crushing effects.

[0041] Preferably, the present embodiment further comprises a plurality of barrier nets 8, which are arranged inside the crushing chamber 2, and are arranged at the bottom of the corresponding crushing roller 321 and the auxiliary roller 322, respectively, and the plurality of barrier nets 8 enclose and form a filter belt.

[0042] The blocking net 8 is semicircular and matches the diameters of the crushing roller 321 and the auxiliary roller 322 respectively. The mesh diameter of the blocking net 8 is set according to actual needs.

[0043] The barrier net 8 is designed to be semicircular, and this shape can be well adapted to the bottom of the crushing roller 321 and the auxiliary roller 322. A corresponding barrier net 8 is arranged at the bottom of each crushing roller 321 and the auxiliary roller 322. These barrier nets are connected to each other to form a filter belt.

[0044] The main function of the barrier net 8 is to prevent oversized particles or incompletely crushed materials in the crushed seaweed raw material from continuing to flow downward, ensuring that only materials that meet a certain fineness requirement can pass through, which helps to improve the efficiency and quality of subsequent processing steps.

[0045] The mesh diameter of the barrier net 8 is set according to actual needs. The size of the mesh diameter directly affects the filtering effect of the barrier net. A smaller mesh diameter can intercept more coarse particles, but it may also cause a decrease in the filtering speed; while a larger mesh diameter can increase the filtering speed, but may allow some incompletely crushed materials to pass through. Therefore, when setting the mesh diameter, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the properties of the seaweed raw materials, the crushing effect, and the needs of subsequent processing.

[0046] Specifically, the stirring mechanism 6 in this embodiment includes a second drive motor 61, a second reducer 62, a rotating shaft 63 and a spiral piece 64. The second reducer 62 is arranged on the soaking box 4, the second drive motor 61 is arranged on the second reducer 62, the output shaft of the second drive motor 61 is connected to the input end of the second reducer 62, the rotating shaft 63 is rotatably arranged inside the soaking box 4, the spiral piece 64 is arranged on the rotating shaft 63, and the output end of the second reducer 62 is connected to the rotating shaft 63.

[0047] The driving motor 2 61 is the power source of the stirring mechanism 6 and is responsible for providing rotational power to drive the stirring mechanism to work. Through the deceleration effect of the reducer 2 62, it can ensure that the stirring mechanism rotates at a suitable speed while providing sufficient stirring force. The reducer 2 62 drives the rotating shaft 63 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 63 is used to drive the spiral blade 64 to rotate.

[0048] The spiral blades 64 are arranged on the rotating shaft 63, and their shape and number are designed according to the stirring effect and material characteristics. During the rotation process, the spiral blades 64 can effectively mix the seaweed raw material and hot water in the soaking tank 4 and promote the softening process of the seaweed raw material. Through the stirring effect of the spiral blades 64, it can be ensured that the seaweed raw material is evenly heated and softened during the soaking process, thereby improving the pretreatment effect.

[0049] As a preferred embodiment, the present embodiment also includes an injection mechanism 9, which includes a fixed seat 91, an air pipe 92, a nozzle 93 and a high-pressure air supply pipe 94, wherein the fixed seat 91 is arranged on the immersion box 4, the air pipe 92 and the high-pressure air supply pipe 94 are both arranged on the fixed seat 91, the nozzle 93 is arranged at the bottom of the side wall of the crushing chamber 2, one end of the air pipe 92 is connected to the nozzle 93, the other end of the air pipe 92 is connected to the high-pressure air supply pipe 94, and the other end of the high-pressure air supply pipe 94 is connected to an external air supply mechanism, wherein the nozzle 93 is located at the connection point between the immersion box 4 and the crushing bin 1.

[0050] The fixed seat 91 is the basic supporting structure of the jet mechanism 9. The high-pressure air supply pipe 94 is connected to the external air supply mechanism to introduce the high-pressure gas. The air delivery pipe 92 is responsible for delivering the high-pressure gas from the high-pressure air supply pipe 94 to the nozzle 93. One end of the air delivery pipe 92 is connected to the nozzle 93, and the other end is connected to the high-pressure air supply pipe 94, forming a complete gas delivery channel. The nozzle 93 is a key component of the jet mechanism 9. It is arranged at the bottom of the side wall of the crushing chamber 2. The nozzle 93 has a plurality of air outlets, which can evenly spray the high-pressure gas into the crushing chamber 2, thereby achieving the blowing and turning of the seaweed raw materials, preventing the raw materials from accumulating and clogging at the outlet during the crushing process, and ensuring the smooth progress of the crushing process.

[0051] The air supply mechanism in this embodiment may be a compressed air machine.
