Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of inulin extraction, in particular to an extraction tank used for inulin extraction. Background Art

[0002] Inulin is a mixture of fructan and oligofructose with a certain degree of polymerization. Inulin is one of the most soluble dietary fibers found so far. It has the functions of controlling blood lipids, lowering blood sugar, promoting mineral absorption, increasing bifidobacteria in the intestine, preventing constipation and treating obesity. Due to its unique physical and chemical properties and physiological functions, inulin is widely used in food, beverages, health products, medicine and other fields.

[0003] Inulin exists mainly in plants of the Asteraceae family in nature. Jerusalem artichoke is commonly known as Jerusalem artichoke. The content of the main raw material of domestic inulin is 15%-20%. Inulin is contained in the protoplasm of cells in the form of colloid. Unlike starch, it is easily soluble in hot water and precipitates from water when ethanol is added. When the existing extraction tank used for inulin extraction extracts the fused liquid, a large amount of Jerusalem artichoke will accumulate at the bottom of the extraction tank. When it is discharged through a discharge pipe, due to its large volume, it is easy to cause the pipe to be blocked during discharge, resulting in discharge difficulty. In view of this, an extraction tank for inulin extraction is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0035] Furthermore, a liquid outlet pipe 7 is provided on the outer surface of the extraction tank body 2, and a filter screen 8 is provided inside the liquid outlet pipe 7;

[0036] When the extracting tank for inulin extraction is used, Jerusalem artichoke is added into the extracting tank body 2 through the feeding port 4, and hot water is added into the extracting tank body 2 through the liquid injection port 3. The inulin on the surface of the Jerusalem artichoke is precipitated due to the property that the inulin dissolves in hot water. The hot water is then led out through the liquid outlet pipe 7, and impurities such as leaves and rhizomes of the Jerusalem artichoke can be filtered through the filter screen. After the liquid is discharged, the Jerusalem artichoke gradually slides into the slag discharge pipe 15 through the funnel 14 by opening the slag discharge valve 9. At this time, the motor 6 is started, and the motor 6 drives the fixed rod 10 fixedly installed at the output end to rotate through operation, and the fixed rod 10 drives the first bevel gear 11 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface to rotate, and the first bevel gear 11 drives the second bevel gear 12 meshingly connected on the outer surface to rotate, and the second bevel gear 12 drives the fixed rod 13 fixedly sleeved on the inner surface to rotate, and the fixed rod 13 drives the cutting knife 16 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface to rotate, and the Jerusalem artichoke is crushed by the cutting knife 16 to facilitate subsequent collection;

Moreover, when the extraction tank for inulin extraction extracts the hot water after the fusion of inulin precipitation, the filter screen arranged in the liquid discharge pipe can filter impurities floating during the soaking of the Jerusalem artichokes, such as leaves or rhizomes, through which the extracted liquid is purer and free of impurities, and makes it easier for the subsequent concentration process to be performed.

[0038] Working principle: When the extraction tank for inulin extraction is used, Jerusalem artichoke is added into the extraction tank body 2 through the feeding port 4, and hot water is added into the extraction tank body 2 through the liquid injection port 3. Due to the characteristic of inulin being soluble in hot water, the inulin on the surface of the Jerusalem artichoke is precipitated, and the hot water is discharged through the liquid outlet pipe 7, and the impurities such as the leaves and rhizomes of the Jerusalem artichoke can be filtered through the filter screen. After the liquid is discharged, the slag discharge valve 9 is opened, and the Jerusalem artichoke gradually slides into the slag discharge pipe 15 through the funnel 14. At this time, the motor 6 is started, and the motor 6 drives the fixed stick 10 fixedly installed at the output end to rotate through operation, and the fixed stick 10 drives the first bevel gear 11 fixedly mounted on the outer surface to rotate, and the first bevel gear 11 drives the second bevel gear 12 meshingly connected to the outer surface to rotate, and the second bevel gear 12 drives the fixed rod 13 fixedly mounted on the inner surface to rotate, and the fixed rod 13 drives the cutting knife 16 fixedly mounted on the outer surface to rotate, and the Jerusalem artichoke is crushed by the cutting knife 16 to facilitate subsequent collection.
