Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of seaweed extraction and processing, and particularly relates to an immersion device for seaweed extraction. Background Art

[0002] In the development and utilization of marine resources, seaweed, as a natural resource rich in various bioactive components and nutrients, has broad application prospects. Seaweed extracts such as alginate, agar, carrageenan, etc. have important applications in the fields of food, medicine, cosmetics and biomaterials. However, to efficiently extract these valuable components from seaweed, a series of complex processing steps are usually required, and immersion is a crucial step among them.

[0003] The immersion process can enable the soluble components (such as polysaccharides, proteins, minerals, etc.) in seaweed to be fully dissolved in the solvent, laying a foundation for subsequent extraction and purification work. Appropriate immersion can soften the cell wall of seaweed and increase the diffusion rate of the effective components in the cells into the solvent, thereby improving the extraction efficiency.

[0004] Traditional immersion methods often use simple containers and stirring methods, which are difficult to ensure the uniform distribution of seaweed in the solvent, resulting in inconsistent immersion effects and affecting the extraction efficiency and quality. Traditional immersion equipment is cumbersome in operations such as adding seaweed, replacing the solvent, and extracting seaweed, increasing the labor intensity and time cost. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The utility model aims at the technical problems existing in the prior art, and provides an immersion device for seaweed extraction to solve the problems of poor seaweed extraction effect and low efficiency.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model for solving the above technical problems is as follows: an immersion device for seaweed extraction, including a main frame, on which an immersion tank is installed; a closable tank cover is arranged on one side of the immersion tank, and a partition net is arranged in the inner cavity of the immersion tank; the partition net divides the inner cavity of the immersion tank into an immersion cavity and a heating cavity;

[0007] An inlet pipe and a drain pipe communicating with the immersion cavity are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the immersion tank; a wire cage for storing seaweed is also arranged in the immersion cavity of the immersion tank; an electric heater is arranged in the heating cavity of the immersion tank.

[0008] On the basis of the above technical solution, the utility model can be further improved as follows.

[0009] Further, the wire cage is a closed cage structure assembled by wire plates, and a detachable wire plate is reserved on the side close to the tank cover.

[0010] Furthermore, a guiding rail is horizontally arranged in the inner cavity of the soaking tank, and sliding parts which are slidably matched with the guiding rail are formed on both sides of the wire cage.

[0011] Furthermore, a handle is arranged on one side of the wire cage close to the tank cover.

[0012] Furthermore, the electric heater includes electric heating wires evenly wound around the heating cavity.

[0013] Furthermore, control valves are installed on both the liquid inlet pipe and the liquid discharge pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, a plurality of universal brake wheels are installed at the bottom of the main frame.

[0015] Moreover, the soaking device for seaweed extraction provided by the utility model has at least the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0016] 1. The inner cavity of the soaking tank is divided into a soaking cavity and a heating cavity by a partition net, so that the electric heater can focus on heating the solvent in the soaking cavity instead of directly heating the seaweed, avoiding damage to the seaweed due to direct contact with high temperature. At the same time, the heat in the heating cavity evenly heats the solvent in the soaking cavity through heat transfer, improving the soaking efficiency and the dissolution rate of the active ingredients in the seaweed.

[0017] 2. The guiding rail arranged in the inner cavity of the soaking tank is matched with the sliding parts on both sides of the wire cage, realizing the smooth sliding of the wire cage. Users can easily push the wire cage into or out of the soaking cavity, greatly simplifying the processes of adding, soaking and extracting seaweed, and reducing the labor intensity.

[0018] 3. As a storage container for seaweed, the closed cage structure of the wire cage effectively prevents the seaweed from scattering during the soaking process. At the same time, the detachable wire mesh design facilitates the addition and removal of seaweed, avoiding the overflow of seaweed and ensuring the smooth progress of the soaking process.

[0026] An inlet pipe 5 and a drain pipe 6 communicating with the soaking cavity are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the soaking tank 2; a wire cage 7 for storing seaweed is further arranged in the soaking cavity of the soaking tank 2; an electric heater 8 is arranged in the heating cavity of the soaking tank 2.

[0027] The seaweed is fixed by the wire cage 7, and a solvent is injected through the inlet pipe 5 for soaking. At the same time, the electric heater 8 works in the heating cavity, and the solvent in the soaking cavity is heated through heat transfer, so that the active ingredients of the seaweed are dissolved in the solvent more quickly and fully under heating conditions. Finally, the discharge of the solvent is controlled through the drain pipe 6 to complete the soaking and extraction process of the seaweed.
