Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of extraction equipment, and more specifically to an extraction equipment for tea saponin production. Background Art

[0002] Tea saponin, also known as tea saponin or saponin, is a class of glycoside compounds extracted from tea tree seeds. It has good natural surfactant properties. Tea saponin not only exists in tea tree seeds but can also be found in tea leaves, especially in fermented tea leaves such as black tea and dark tea with relatively high contents. Tea saponin has a bitter and pungent taste, certain hygroscopicity and hemolytic effect. It is widely used in multiple fields such as light industry, chemical industry, and agriculture, and is also considered to have certain biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial health benefits.

[0003] When extracting tea saponin from tea tree seeds, first, the tea tree seed raw materials are crushed, then the tea leaves are soaked in hot water to dissolve the tea saponin into the water. Subsequently, the solid residues are filtered out, and the filtrate containing tea saponin is collected. Finally, the filtrate is concentrated and dried to obtain the tea saponin product.

[0004] Deficiencies of the existing extraction equipment for tea saponin production:

[0005] First: During the crushing process, the tea tree seeds need to be ground very finely because this will allow the tea saponin to be fully dissolved out from the tea tree seeds. However, the existing grinding devices are difficult to fully grind the tea tree seeds, resulting in the tea saponin in the tea tree seeds not being completely released into the solvent, leading to a small amount of tea saponin extracted during the extraction process and also reducing the extraction efficiency.

[0006] Second: After the crushed tea tree seeds are soaked, the seed powder in the hot water needs to be taken out of the soaking chamber, and then the tea saponin solution is put into the next step. However, due to the fineness of the seed powder, it will cause the filter screen to be blocked. Summary of the Utility Model

[0007] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the utility model provides an extraction equipment for tea saponin production to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned background art.

[0014] The technical effects and advantages of the present utility model:

[0015] 1. When the tea tree seeds need to be ground in the present utility model, the tea tree seeds are placed in the pressing plate. Under the action of the spring and the guiding block, the tea tree seeds are pressed in the grinding barrel and move on the grinding disc through the leakage groove. At this time, the first motor is started to make the first conical gear start to rotate. When the first conical gear starts to rotate, the second conical gear starts to rotate. At this time, the first transmission rod drives the round block to rotate, and the round block is connected to the first driving rod, which makes the second driving rod drive the grinding barrel to rotate on the grinding disc. Under the action of the grinding disc and the frosted bottom, the tea tree seeds are ground into debris and enter the soaking chamber through the feeding port. The rotation of the grinding barrel on the grinding disc ensures that the tea tree seeds are ground finer, which helps to destroy the cell structure of the seeds and makes it easier for tea saponin to be released from the cells.

[0016] 2. When the filter screen of the present utility model needs to clean the debris on its surface, start the second motor to make the second transmission rod start to rotate. When the second transmission rod starts to rotate, the rotating block starts to rotate. When the rotating block starts to rotate, the first connecting rod also starts to rotate. Under the action of the bearing, the round rod in the cylinder starts to swing left and right. The adapter and the second connecting rod provide a pivot point for the round rod. At this time, the movable brush block moves back and forth on the filter screen to avoid being blocked. By the swing of the movable brush block, the filter screen is not blocked, which can make the production process proceed more smoothly, reduce the situation of production interruption due to the need to clean the filter screen, and maintain the continuity and stability of production.
