This process is crucial to improving production efficiency, reducing energy consumption and ensuring product quality. The existing concentration cyclone station usually includes a conical cyclone. The starch slurry enters the cyclone from the tangential direction and forms a strong rotating flow inside.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0020] See also Figure 1-4The utility model provides a technical solution: a potato starch processing and concentrating cyclone station, comprising a cyclone station fixing frame 1, a cyclone 2 is installed on the inner surface of the cyclone station fixing frame 1, a separation mechanism 3 is arranged inside the cyclone 2, and a cleaning mechanism 4 is arranged on one side surface of the cyclone station fixing frame 1;

[0021] The separation mechanism 3 includes a cyclone inner shell 301, a large particle cyclone plate 302, a small particle cyclone plate 303, a starch granule sieve plate 304 and an auger screw rod 305. The cyclone inner shell 301 is fixedly connected to the inside of the cyclone 2, the large particle cyclone plate 302 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the cyclone inner shell 301, the small particle cyclone plate 303 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the cyclone inner shell 301, the starch granule sieve plate 304 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the cyclone inner shell 301, and the auger screw rod 305 is rotatably connected to the inner surface of the cyclone 2. By setting the cyclone inner shell 301, the large particle cyclone plate 302, the small particle cyclone plate 303, the starch granule sieve plate 304 and the auger screw rod 305, when in use, during the working process of the cyclone 2, the raw material liquid enters through the cyclone inner shell 301 and first encounters the large particle cyclone plate 302. The cyclone plate 302, the design of the large particle cyclone plate 302 allows the larger impurity particles to be quickly separated and discharged to the outside, and then the liquid passes through the small particle cyclone plate 303 to further remove smaller particles and impurities. Finally, the liquid flows through the starch particle screen plate 304, the starch particles are retained on the screen plate, and the remaining liquid continues to flow downward through the screen plate. Next, the auger screw 305 rotates inside the cyclone 2 to push the starch particles retained on the starch particle screen plate 304 to the outlet of the cyclone 2, thereby realizing the continuous collection and discharge of the starch particles. At the same time, the rotation of the auger screw 305 also helps to promote the circulation of the liquid inside the cyclone 2, enhance the cyclone effect, improve the separation efficiency, realize the efficient separation and concentration of potato starch in the processing process, and improve the extraction efficiency and purity of starch.

[0022] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism 4 includes a water pump 401, a water pipe 402, a water outlet pipe 403, a connecting pipe 404 and a water spray port 405. The water pump 401 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the cyclone station fixing frame 1, the water pump 401 is fixedly connected to the water pipe 402 on one side, the water outlet pipe 403 is fixedly connected to one side of the water pump 401, the outer surface of the water outlet pipe 403 is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 404, and the outer surface of the water outlet pipe 403 is provided with a water spray port 405. By setting the water pump 401, the water pipe 402, the water outlet pipe 403, the connecting pipe 404 and the water spray port 405, when it is necessary to clean the inner wall of the cyclone 2, firstly, the water pump 401 is turned on. The external water source sucks water from the water delivery pipe 402, and delivers the clean water to the cleaning area of ​​the cyclone 2 through the water outlet pipe 403. The connecting pipe 404 connects the water outlet pipe 403 with the inside of the cyclone 2. The water spray port 405 inside the water outlet pipe 403 sprays the clean water in the form of high-pressure spray to clean the inner wall and each sieve plate of the cyclone 2. The water spray port 405 ensures that every corner can be fully cleaned, effectively removing the starch particles and impurities attached to the inner wall of the cyclone 2, avoiding the problems of blockage and wear, and ensuring the separation effect and concentration efficiency of the cyclone 2. Regular cleaning also helps to reduce the maintenance cost of the equipment and improve production efficiency.

[0023] Furthermore, the material of the cyclone inner shell 301 is aluminum alloy, and the large particle cyclone plate 302, the small particle cyclone plate 303 and the starch particle screen plate 304 are evenly spaced on the inner surface of the cyclone inner shell 301. The cyclone inner shell 301 is arranged to enhance its durability and service life. The design of the cyclone inner shell 301 fully considers the principles of fluid dynamics to ensure the effective separation of potato starch therein.

[0024] Furthermore, the cyclones 2 are distributed at equal intervals on the inner surface of the cyclone station fixing frame 1, and the outer wall size of the large-particle cyclone plate 302 matches the inner wall size of the cyclone inner shell 301. By setting the large-particle cyclone plate 302, the cyclone effect inside the cyclone station fixing frame 1 can be further improved, so that when the cyclone 2 is working, the large-particle material can be more effectively drawn into the cyclone.

[0025] Furthermore, the outer wall size of the small particle swirl plate 303 matches the inner wall size of the swirl inner shell 301, and the outer wall size of the starch granule sieve plate 304 matches the inner wall size of the swirl inner shell 301. Through the setting of the small particle swirl plate 303, the starch slurry can form a more delicate swirl inside the swirl inner shell 301, effectively promoting the separation and purification of starch particles.

[0026] Furthermore, the water pump 401 is connected to the water source through the water pipe 402, and the water outlet pipe 403 is connected to the water spray port 405 through the connecting pipe 404. Through the setting of the water pump 401, water in the water source can be pumped to the water spray port 405 and sprayed into the cyclone 2 through the water spray port 405.

[0027] Furthermore, the water spray ports 405 are distributed in a circular array on the outer surface of the water outlet pipe 403, and the position of the connecting pipe 404 corresponds one-to-one to the position of the cyclone 2. Through the setting of the water spray ports 405, the water flow can form a uniformly distributed water spray ring around the cyclone 2, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0028] Working principle: When using the potato starch processing and concentration cyclone station, the potato starch raw material liquid is first transported to the cyclone 2 through the inlet. After the raw material liquid enters the cyclone inner shell 301, it first encounters the large particle cyclone plate 302. Due to the design of the large particle cyclone plate 302, the larger impurity particles are quickly separated and discharged to the outside. Then, the liquid continues to flow and passes through the small particle cyclone plate 303 to further remove smaller particles and impurities. Finally, the liquid flows through the starch particle sieve plate 304, and the starch particles are retained on the sieve plate, while the remaining liquid continues to flow downward through the sieve plate. At the same time, the auger screw 305 rotates inside the cyclone 2 to remove the starch particles retained on the starch particle sieve plate 304. The starch particles on the cyclone 2 are pushed to the outlet of the cyclone 2, so that the starch particles are continuously collected and discharged. The rotation of the auger screw rod 305 also helps to promote the circulation of the liquid inside the cyclone 2, enhance the cyclone effect, and improve the separation efficiency. When the cyclone 2 needs to be cleaned, the water pump 401 is started to pump water from the water source to the water spray port 405. The water spray port 405 cleans the inner wall and each sieve plate of the cyclone 2 in the form of high-pressure spray to ensure that every corner can be fully cleaned. The cleaned water can be discharged through the drainage system to keep the equipment clean and hygienic. The material of the cyclone inner shell 301 is aluminum alloy, which has good durability and service life.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
