Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soybean protein extraction structures, in particular to an integrated reverse osmosis structure for soybean protein extraction. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing emphasis on healthy diets and nutritional balance, plant-based protein sources, especially soybean protein, are favored due to their high nutritional value and health benefits. Integrated reverse osmosis technology can improve the extraction efficiency and purity of soybean protein, meeting the market demand for high-quality soybean protein. As a sustainable plant protein source, the environmental friendliness of soybean production and processing has received attention. As an economical and efficient protein source, the market demand for soybean protein continues to grow, driving the innovation and application of integrated reverse osmosis technology.
[0003] In the prior art, traditional integrated reverse osmosis structures play an important role in this process, mainly used to remove small molecule impurities in soybean protein extracts through semi-permeable membranes to improve the purity and quality of the protein. However, a significant drawback of traditional integrated reverse osmosis structures lies in the fixity of their pipeline designs. When installing these pipelines, since the rotation direction of the pipelines cannot be freely changed, great inconvenience will be encountered when long pipelines need to be installed or when there is limited space between equipment. This limitation results in the need for careful planning during pipeline layout, and auxiliary support frames often need to be added along the pipelines to maintain the stability of the pipelines and prevent pipeline displacement or damage caused by gravity, vibration, or pressure changes. Such an installation method not only increases the complexity of the project but also significantly raises the cost. Adding auxiliary support frames requires additional materials and labor, which not only increases the initial construction cost but also the long-term maintenance cost. At the same time, since the support frames may affect the overall aesthetics and operating space of the pipelines, it may bring inconvenience to the daily operations and maintenance of the staff. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the deficiencies existing in the prior art and propose an integrated reverse osmosis structure for soybean protein extraction.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present utility model adopts the following technical solution: An integrated reverse osmosis structure for soybean protein extraction, comprising a storage tank, a fixed base is connected to the surface of the storage tank, a cover plate is detachably connected to the surface of the fixed base, a delivery pipe is connected to the surface of the cover plate, sealing convex teeth are fixed on the inner wall of the delivery pipe, a sleeve is fixed on the surface of the delivery pipe, a fixed screw cap is threadedly connected inside the sleeve, a permeation pipe is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve, a rubber plug is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve, a push spring is fixed on the surface of the rubber plug, the push spring is rotatably connected to the permeation pipe, the rubber plug is rotatably connected to the permeation pipe, and a fixed knob is threadedly connected to the front end of the permeation pipe. In the prior art, the traditional integrated reverse osmosis structure plays an important role in this process, mainly used to remove small molecule impurities in the soybean protein extract through a semi-permeable membrane to improve the purity and quality of the protein. However, a significant drawback of the traditional integrated reverse osmosis structure is the fixity of its pipeline design. When installing these pipelines, since the rotation direction of the pipelines cannot be freely changed, great inconvenience will be encountered when long pipelines need to be installed or when there is limited space between equipment. This limitation results in the need for careful planning during pipeline layout, and auxiliary support frames often need to be added along the pipeline to maintain the stability of the pipeline and prevent pipeline displacement or damage caused by gravity, vibration, or pressure changes. Such an installation method not only increases the complexity of the project but also significantly increases the cost. Adding auxiliary support frames requires additional materials and labor, which not only increases the initial construction cost but also increases the long-term maintenance cost. At the same time, since the support frames may affect the overall aesthetics and operating space of the pipeline, it may bring inconvenience to the daily operation and maintenance of the staff. To address such problems, the present utility model rotates the pipe interface. When the staff needs to install the permeation pipe to different interfaces, it is ensured that one end of the permeation pipe has been firmly installed to the corresponding interface. This usually involves ensuring the sealing performance at the pipeline connection to avoid any possible leakage. Once one end of the permeation pipe is installed, the staff can manually pick up the other end of the permeation pipe. Due to the design of the rotating pipe interface, the staff can easily rotate the other end of the permeation pipe to a suitable angle and position for docking with the docking interface of the storage tank. Finally, after the docking is completed, it is ensured that the connection between the permeation pipe and the docking interface of the storage tank is firm and has good sealing performance to prevent leakage or detachment. The rotating pipe interface design of the present utility model greatly simplifies the installation work of long pipelines or pipelines with complex routes, reduces the need for auxiliary support frames, and reduces the maintenance cost. At the same time, it also improves the operation flexibility and reduces the risk of equipment failure caused by improper installation. This design is particularly beneficial for soybean protein extraction factories that need to perform frequent assembly and maintenance in limited space, and can improve the overall work efficiency and safety.
[0006] Preferably, a fixed sleeve is provided inside the cover plate. A bolt is fixed on the surface of the fixed base. A nut is threadedly connected to the surface of the bolt. An elastic piece is slidably connected to the surface of the bolt. The elastic piece is slidably connected to the fixed sleeve. An elastic gasket is slidably connected to the surface of the bolt. In the prior art, traditional soybean protein extraction equipment usually adopts an integrated reverse osmosis structure to improve the purity of protein. Most of the components and pipeline systems in these structures are fixed by bolts to ensure the stability and tightness of each part. However, there are some common problems that occur over time with the traditional bolt fixing method. During the soybean protein extraction process, the operation of the equipment generates vibrations. Long-term vibrations may cause the bolts to gradually loosen, thus affecting the connection stability of the structure. Temperature changes during the processing will cause the materials to expand and contract. This thermal expansion and contraction may loosen the bolts, further affecting the tightness and stability of the entire reverse osmosis structure and making it more likely to become loose. To address such problems, the present utility model ensures that the nut will not become loose due to vibrations during equipment operation and thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes by adopting the method of adding elastic pieces. The elastic piece is installed between the nut and the fixed component, applying a positive pressure to it. This pressure will push the nut tightly against the bolt thread, thereby generating additional friction. This friction greatly increases the ability of the nut to remain in the fixed position and can provide stable and reliable pressure even under long-term vibrations and temperature fluctuations. Thereby, it can extend its service life and maintenance cycle, significantly improve the connection stability and durability, and reduce equipment failures and maintenance requirements caused by nut loosening. This solution is particularly suitable for industrial applications such as soybean protein extraction that require high equipment stability and reliability, where the continuous operation of the equipment is crucial for production efficiency and product quality.
[0007] Preferably, a sliding cushion plate is fixed to the bottom of the storage tank. The bottom of the sliding cushion plate is slidably connected to a shock-absorbing base. A buffer spring is fixed inside the shock-absorbing base. A damping air pump is fixed inside the shock-absorbing base. A shock-absorbing spring is fixed inside the shock-absorbing base. The damping air pump is fixedly connected to the sliding cushion plate. The damping cylinder uses the damping device inside to absorb and dissipate kinetic energy, thereby reducing or eliminating vibrations. When the piston inside the cylinder moves, the damping medium will pass through the provided damping holes or valves, generating pressure differences and friction, and these effects will be converted into heat energy, thereby dissipating the kinetic energy that may otherwise cause vibrations. Reducing the vibrations of the integrated reverse osmosis structure during the soybean protein extraction process can improve the operating stability of the system, protect sensitive equipment, extend the equipment life, and ultimately ensure the quality and output of the protein extract.
[0008] Preferably, the material of the sealing convex teeth is colloid. By using colloid material to manufacture the sealing convex teeth, it not only ensures the sealing requirements in the reverse osmosis structure, but also provides additional guarantee for the long-term stable operation of the equipment, further enhancing the sealing ability of the permeation tube.
[0009] Preferably, the surface of the elastic sheet is arrayed with inclined grooves. By designing inclined grooves on the elastic sheet, it improves the material utilization rate and reduces the cost, contributing to the efficient, economical and stable operation of the equipment.
[0010] Preferably, the shock-absorbing spring adopts a double-strand spring. The design of the double-strand spring can more effectively absorb and disperse vibration energy, reduce the impact on other components of the equipment, thereby protecting the entire system from damage.

[0012] 1. In the prior art, the traditional integrated reverse osmosis structure plays an important role in this process, mainly used to remove small molecule impurities in soybean protein extract through a semi-permeable membrane to improve the purity and quality of the protein. However, a significant drawback of the traditional integrated reverse osmosis structure lies in the fixity of its pipeline design. When installing these pipelines, due to the inability to freely change the rotation direction of the pipelines, great inconvenience will be encountered when long pipelines need to be installed or when there is limited space between equipment.

Adding auxiliary support frames requires additional materials and labor, which not only increases the initial construction cost but also the long-term maintenance cost. At the same time, since the support frames may affect the overall aesthetics and operating space of the pipeline, it may bring inconvenience to the daily operation and maintenance of the staff. To address such problems, the utility model uses a rotating pipe interface. When the staff needs to install the permeation pipe to different interfaces, it ensures that one end of the permeation pipe has been firmly installed on the corresponding interface. This usually involves ensuring the tightness of the pipeline connection to avoid any possible leakage. Once one end of the permeation pipe is installed, the staff can manually pick up the other end of the permeation pipe.

[0013] 2. In the prior art, traditional soy protein extraction equipment usually adopts an integrated reverse osmosis structure to improve the purity of protein. Most of the components and piping systems in these structures are fixed by bolts to ensure the stability and sealing of each part. However, there are some common problems that occur over time when using traditional bolt fixing methods. During the soy protein extraction process, the operation of the equipment will generate vibrations. Long-term vibration may cause the bolts to gradually loosen, thereby affecting the connection stability of the structure. Temperature changes during processing can cause the material to expand and contract. This thermal expansion and contraction may loosen the bolts, thereby affecting the sealing and stability of the entire reverse osmosis structure, causing it to loosen more easily. In response to such problems, the utility model adopts the method of adding a spring sheet to generate a continuous thrust on the nut with the help of the spring sheet to ensure that the nut will not loosen due to the vibration during the operation of the equipment and the thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes. The spring sheet is installed between the nut and the fixed component, and a positive pressure is applied to it, which pushes the nut close to the bolt thread, thereby generating additional friction. This friction greatly increases the ability of the nut to remain in a fixed position, and can provide stable and reliable pressure even under long-term vibration and temperature fluctuation conditions. This can extend its service life and maintenance cycle, significantly improve the stability and durability of the connection, and reduce equipment failures and maintenance requirements caused by loose nuts. This solution is particularly suitable for industrial applications such as soy protein extraction that require high equipment stability and reliability, where continuous operation of the equipment is critical to production efficiency and product quality.
