Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of extraction devices, and more specifically, to a vanillin extraction device. Background Art

[0002] Vanillin is an aromatic compound with a vanilla aroma, widely used in food, beverages, and fragrances, especially in vanilla-flavored products. Vanillin is not only used for food flavoring but also as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes and cosmetics. Vanillin naturally exists in vanilla pods and is the main flavor component. The vanillin in vanilla pods is formed during the ripening and fermentation of vanilla.

[0003] Vanillin can be synthesized artificially or obtained by extraction. The extraction steps are as follows: After crushing vanilla pods, they are mixed with a solvent (such as ethanol or ethyl acetate), and the vanillin dissolved in the solvent is obtained through filtration or separation.

[0004] During the extraction process, it is necessary to stir regularly to ensure sufficient contact between the solvent and the vanilla pod powder. However, the powder is prone to sedimentation at the bottom of the extraction bottle, resulting in uneven mixing. At the same time, in the existing devices, the extraction bottle is fixed by bolts, etc., making it difficult to install, disassemble, and clean. Summary of the Utility Model

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0022] The present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present utility model are given for the convenience of illustration and description, and are not exhaustive or limit the present utility model to the disclosed form. Many modifications and variations will be obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments are selected and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, and enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present utility model and thus design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific purposes.

[0023] As Figures 1-4 shown, the technical solution of the present utility model provides a vanillin extraction device, which includes a mounting frame 1, a lifting drive mechanism arranged on the mounting frame 1, a mounting plate 2 threadedly connected to the lifting drive mechanism, a plurality of extraction bottles 3 arranged on the mounting plate 2, and a stirring mechanism and a cover structure arranged on the mounting frame 1. The extraction work is completed in the extraction bottle 3. The bottom of the extraction bottle 3 is provided with an outlet and a solvent inlet. The vanilla pod powder is put into the extraction bottle 3 from the top, and then the cover structure covers the top of the extraction bottle 3. The stirring mechanism evenly mixes the solvent and the vanilla pod powder. After extraction for a certain period of time, the extract is distributed in the upper layer and the vanilla pod powder is located in the lower layer. Then, separation is carried out to obtain the extract, and subsequent operations are then carried out.

[0024] The cover structure corresponds to the extraction bottle 3 one by one, and the cover structure is fixedly arranged; the extraction bottle 3 is magnetically fixed to the mounting plate 2. The stirring mechanism includes a drive motor 10, an upper stirring component and a lower stirring component connected to the upper stirring component. The lower stirring component is close to the bottom of the extraction bottle 3. The mounting plate 2 can be driven to lift by the lifting drive component. When the vanilla pod powder is put into the extraction bottle 3, the lifting drive component drives the mounting frame 1 to move upward and contact the cover structure. The cover 7 covers the mouth of the extraction bottle 3, and then the extraction solvent is introduced from the bottom. The drive motor 10 drives the upper stirring component and the lower stirring component to rotate simultaneously, so that the extraction solvent and the vanilla pod powder are in full contact. This device can easily realize the putting of raw materials, and the extraction bottle 3 is convenient to disassemble and assemble. At the same time, during extraction, the upper stirring component and the lower stirring component work simultaneously, so that the vanilla pod powder and the extraction solvent are fully mixed, and vanillin is better extracted.

[0025] The upper stirring component includes a stirring rod 11 and stirring blades 12 arranged on the stirring rod 11. The lower stirring component is arranged at the bottom of the stirring rod 11. The lower stirring component includes an annular stirring frame 13 and a plurality of stirring sheets 14 circumferentially arranged on the annular stirring frame 13. The plurality of stirring sheets 14 are arranged in a converging manner from top to bottom. The stirring sheet 14 includes a straight section 15 and an outwardly extending outward expansion section 16 from the straight section 15.

[0026] For the convenience of discharging materials, the bottom of the extraction bottle 3 is conical. During stirring, the powdery vanilla pod powder is likely to deposit at the bottom of the extraction bottle 3. By arranging the lower stirring assembly to extend to the conical part, the vanilla pod powder can be better stirred, so that it is evenly mixed with the extraction solvent and prevented from accumulating at the bottom. The setting of the outward expansion section increases the stirring resistance and has a better stirring effect.

[0027] A jack for the extraction bottle 3 to pass through is arranged on the mounting plate 2. A number of first magnets 4 are arranged on the outer periphery of the jack. A fixing ring 5 is arranged on the extraction bottle 3, and a second magnet 6 corresponding to the first magnet 4 is arranged on the fixing ring 5. After the extraction bottle 3 is inserted into the jack, the second magnet 6 on it is opposite to the first magnet 4 on the mounting plate 2, and the two are magnetically fixed, so that the fixing of the extraction bottle 3 can be realized. The above fixing method is convenient for taking out the extraction bottle 3 subsequently and is more convenient for cleaning.

[0028] The cover structure includes a cover fixing plate 8 and a cover 7 arranged on the cover fixing plate 8. The cover fixing plate 8 is threadedly connected to the mounting frame 1 through a fixing rod 9. The cover 7 is fixed. During the upward movement of the extraction bottle 3, it contacts the cover 7 and makes the cover 7 inserted into the extraction bottle 3 to cover the bottle mouth. The bottle mouth of the extraction bottle 3 is relatively large, which is convenient for placing raw materials and cleaning.

[0029] The lifting drive mechanism includes a lifting motor 17 and a threaded rod 18 connected to the output end of the lifting motor 17. A limiting rod 19 is arranged on the mounting frame 1 and on the opposite side of the threaded rod 18. The mounting plate 2 is slidably connected to the limiting rod 19. The rotation of the lifting motor 17 drives the rotation of the threaded rod 18, and then drives the mounting plate 2 connected to it to lift and lower. The limiting rod 19 plays a limiting role when the mounting plate 2 lifts and lowers.

[0030] Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art and related fields without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention. The structures, devices and operation methods not specifically described and explained in the present invention, unless otherwise specified and limited, are implemented according to the conventional means in the art.
