Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of solvent extraction equipment, in particular to a tangerine peel tea paste raw material extraction tank. Background Art

[0002] At present, the most important way to drink tea is to brew tea with original leaves, that is, to soak tea leaves in boiling water, and then drink the tea leaves when the effective substances in the tea leaves are integrated into the tea water. Although the existing tea brewing method can preserve the original aroma substances of the tea leaves to a large extent, it will waste a lot of time for users with a fast pace of life. In particular, the process of soaking tea leaves is less convenient and more cumbersome. The tea leaves need to be washed before drinking, and the tea residue needs to be discarded and processed after drinking, which is extremely inconvenient. In response to this problem, tea paste, which is a concentrate of tea extract, has appeared on the market. When users use tea paste, they put a small piece of tea paste into water to dissolve it to obtain tea liquid. The soaking process will minimize the appearance of tea residues, which is more convenient.

[0003] Tangerine peel tea paste is a product made by combining tangerine peel and Pu'er tea. Tangerine peel refers to dried food made from citrus peel, which has a sweet and sour taste and unique aroma, while Pu'er tea is a specially treated tea with a unique flavor and health benefits. When making tea paste, it generally goes through the process of raw material cleaning - raw material extraction - extraction liquid purification - extraction liquid concentration - solution drying - finished product metering and packaging. Among them, raw material extraction is the process of transferring soluble substances in raw materials such as tea leaves into a suitable solvent, which is the most important of all processes.

[0004] At present, the extraction process of raw materials generally uses an extraction tank for extraction. The extraction tank has the advantages of energy saving, noise reduction, corrosion resistance, and strong production capacity. It is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, food, chemical industry, beverage and other industrial sectors as a necessary equipment for heating, cooling, heat preservation, sterilization or storage of slurry in the extracted materials; however, the tank body of the currently used extraction tank is generally an integrated structure, which is not convenient for cleaning the internal residue and is not conducive to the detection and maintenance of the internal components, which has a certain impact on people's use process. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a split type tangerine peel tea paste raw material extraction tank which is convenient for residue cleaning, detection and maintenance.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a tangerine peel tea paste raw material extraction tank, including a tank body and a control panel, the control panel is arranged at a position on one side of the tank body that is convenient for operation, and the control panel is electrically connected to each electronic control component on the tank body through a wire for signal transmission and control, and the tank body is composed of a mixing and stirring section, an immersion and extraction section, and an extrusion and discharge section, which are connected and sealed in sequence.

A filter screen is installed at the inlet of the body fluid pipe, and a blow-off pipe is connected and installed on the side end surface opposite to the body fluid pipe. A non-return component is installed in the blow-off pipe, and a blow-off air pump is connected and installed at the air inlet end.

[0011] The extrusion mechanism includes a mounting frame, an electric telescopic rod and an extrusion plate. There are two mounting frames, which are relatively installed in the middle and upper part of the shell of the extrusion discharge section. The number of the electric telescopic rods is the same as the number of the mounting frames and they are fixed on the mounting frame. The top surface of the pressure plate is connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod. The pressure plate is a circular plate, and its diameter is the same as the inner diameter of the shell of the extrusion discharge section. A circular through hole is opened at the center of the pressure plate, and its diameter is the same as the outer diameter of the extension tube on the discharge end of the immersion extraction section.

[0012] As an optimization solution for this case, in order to reduce the adhesion or accumulation of raw materials such as tea leaves on the rotating blades behind the shell of the mixing and stirring section, 2-4 air blowing pipes are connected and installed on the sealing cover of the mixing and stirring section. The air outlet of the air blowing pipe is installed with an air nozzle, and the blowing direction of the air nozzle is set downward. An air pump is connected and installed at the air inlet end of each air blowing pipe.

[0013] As an optimization solution for this case, in order to facilitate the cleaning of tea residues attached to the inner wall of the immersion and extraction section and the extrusion and discharge section shell after soaking, a plurality of flushing pipes are installed on the middle and upper part of the immersion and extraction section shell and the middle part of the extrusion and discharge section shell, and the water inlet end of the flushing pipe is connected to an external water storage device.

[0014] As an optimization solution for this case, in order to fully immerse the raw materials in hot water and improve the purity of the solution, a steam stirring tube is installed on the shell of the immersion and extraction section.

[0018] ②. By installing an air blowing pipe on the mixing and stirring section and a flushing pipe on the soaking and extraction section and the extrusion and discharge section, the residue attached to the inner wall of each section shell can be carefully and quickly cleaned, thereby improving the extraction effect and the purity and quality of the extract.

[0019] ③. By arranging a steam pipe and a demister on the soaking and extraction section, the steam pipe can be used to introduce steam for stirring when the raw material is soaked in hot water, so that the raw material contacts the hot water components and the purity of the solution is improved. The demister can demist the water mist generated when the raw material is soaked at high temperature. Due to the inertial impact of the gas, the mist collides with the corrugated plate of the demister and the gathered extract droplets are so large that the gravity generated by itself exceeds the combined force of the gas rising force and the liquid surface tension. The extract is separated from the surface of the corrugated plate, reducing the waste of the extract. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Example 2

[0037] See also Figure 5-8 The specific structure and implementation method are shown in the embodiment, except that: Figure 6 It can be seen that two blowing pipes 18 are connected and installed on the sealing cover 5 of the mixing and stirring section 2, and the air inlet of the blowing pipe 18 is installed with an air nozzle, the blowing direction of the air nozzle is set downward, and a blowing pump is connected and installed at the air inlet end of each blowing pipe 18.

[0038] See also Figure 1 and Figure 7 A plurality of flushing pipes 19 are connected and installed on the middle and upper part of the shell of the soaking and extraction section 3 and the middle part of the shell of the extrusion and discharge section 4, and the water inlet end of the flushing pipe 19 is connected to an external water storage device.

[0039] from Figure 4 It can be seen that a steam stirring tube 20 is connected to the shell of the immersion extraction section 3, the air inlet end of the steam stirring tube 20 is connected to an external steam device, and the air outlet end penetrates into the lower part of the shell of the immersion extraction section 3, and a spherical air nozzle with multiple blowing holes is installed on the air outlet end, and a demister 21 is installed inside the immersion extraction section 3.

[0040] See also Figure 1 and Figure 8 The outlet port of the liquid extraction pipe 13 of the extrusion discharge section 4 is provided with a filter pipe 22. For the specific structure, see Figure 8 The filter tube 22 is a square tube, and three strip holes are evenly spaced on the top surface of the filter tube 22. Removable filter screen plates are respectively arranged in the strip holes, and the mesh size of each filter screen plate gradually decreases in the direction extending from the feed end to the discharge end.

[0041] When in use, the processed raw materials are placed in the mixing and stirring section 2, and the rotating motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 7 to mix and stir various raw materials. After the stirring is completed, the control panel 1 opens the solenoid valve, and the raw materials fall into the soaking advance section. At the same time, the blowing pipe 18 and the blowing pump connected thereto are opened to blow air into the mixing and stirring section 2, and a small amount of residual raw materials attached to the inner wall and the stirring shaft are blown into the soaking and extraction section 3.

At this time, the water mist generated by the high-temperature water moves upward with a small amount of extract. Due to the inertial impact of the gas, the mist collides with the corrugated plate of the demister 21 and the gathered extract droplets are so large that the gravity generated by itself exceeds the combined force of the rising force of the gas and the surface tension of the liquid. The extract is separated from the surface of the corrugated plate. After the preset soaking time, the solenoid valve is opened to allow the residue and the solution to fall into the extrusion discharge section 4 together.

[0043] After entering the extrusion discharge section 4, most of the solution is discharged from the liquid extraction pipe 13, and then enters the next process equipment for processing after primary filtration through the filter tube 22. Then, the electric telescopic rod 16 drives the extrusion plate 17 to press down to squeeze the solution remaining in the raw material slag, so that it flows into the liquid extraction pipe 13 to reduce waste. After the extrusion is completed, the extrusion plate 17 retracts, the control panel 1 closes the point on the liquid extraction pipe 13, and opens the discharge end of the extrusion discharge section 4 to discharge the waste. If the waste is piled up and difficult to fall, open the blowing pipe 14 and the blowing air pump to blow the extruded accumulated waste away and let it fall. At the same time, open the flushing pipe 19 to flush the inner side walls of the soaking extraction section 3 and the extrusion discharge section 4 to flush off the residue attached to the side walls.
