Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of high-pressure homogenizers, and particularly relates to a cleaning and sterilization structure of a high-pressure homogenizer. Background Art
[0002] When traditional methods are used to refine or homogenize materials, the grinding method is usually adopted. By applying a force to the material, large-particle materials are gradually broken into small particles. However, after refinement by the traditional manual grinding method, the particle size of the material is large and the crushing rate is low.
[0003] In the existing technology for refining and homogenizing materials by a high-pressure homogenizer, the existing high-pressure homogenizer usually has one or several reciprocating plungers. The material enters a valve group with adjustable pressure under the action of the plunger. After passing through a current-limiting gap with a specific width, the material with an instantaneously reduced pressure sprays out at an extremely high flow rate and collides with an impact ring of one of the impact valve components, generating three effects: cavitation effect, impact effect, and shear effect. After being processed by these three effects, the particle size of the material can be uniformly refined to less than 100 nm, and the crushing rate is greater than 95%, so as to achieve the purpose of better refining and homogenizing the material.
[0004] However, when the existing homogenizer is cleaned and sterilized before and after production, the cleaning water flow rate at the material outlet is low and the sterilization pressure is low, thus failing to achieve the cleaning and sterilization effect. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a cleaning and sterilization structure of a high-pressure homogenizer, aiming to solve the problem that when the existing homogenizer is cleaned and sterilized before and after production, the cleaning water flow rate at the material outlet is low and the sterilization pressure is low, thus failing to achieve the cleaning and sterilization effect.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a cleaning and sterilization structure of a high-pressure homogenizer, which includes a homogenizing body and an outlet grinding head. The outlet grinding head is arranged on the homogenizing body and is located on one side of the homogenizing body.
[0007] The cleaning and sterilization structure further includes a cleaning assembly.
[0008] The cleaning component includes a first pipeline, a first valve, an introduction pipeline, a second pipeline, a second valve, a third valve, and an export component. The first pipeline is connected to the homogenizing machine body and is located on one side of the homogenizing machine body. The first valve is arranged on the first pipeline and is located on one side of the first pipeline. The introduction pipeline is connected to the first pipeline and is located on one side of the first pipeline. The second pipeline is connected to the introduction pipeline and is located on one side of the introduction pipeline. The second valve is arranged on the second pipeline and is located on one side of the second pipeline. The third valve is arranged on the second pipeline and is located on one side of the second pipeline. The export component is arranged on the outlet grinding head and is connected to the first pipeline.
[0009] Wherein, the export component includes a third pipeline and an export pipeline. The third pipeline is connected to the outlet grinding head and is located on one side of the outlet grinding head. The export pipeline is connected to the third pipeline and is located on one side of the third pipeline.
[0010] Wherein, the export component further includes a fourth pipeline. The fourth pipeline is respectively connected to the first pipeline and the third pipeline. The fourth pipeline is located on the side of the first pipeline close to the third pipeline.
[0011] Wherein, the export component further includes a fourth valve and a steam trap. The fourth valve is arranged on the fourth pipeline and is located on one side of the fourth pipeline. The steam trap is arranged on the fourth pipeline and is located on the side of the fourth pipeline close to the fourth valve.
[0012] Wherein, the cleaning component further includes a Y-type filter. The Y-type filter is arranged on the first pipeline and is located on one side of the first pipeline.
[0013] A cleaning and sterilization structure of a high-pressure homogenizer according to the present utility model. When it is necessary to clean the homogenizer body, the first valve is opened through program control, while the second valve, the third valve and the export component are closed. After flushing for 5 minutes, the second valve and the third valve are opened, and the first valve is closed for flushing for 5 minutes. Such flushing is repeated 3 times to clean the homogenizer body. When it is necessary to sterilize the homogenizer body, the first valve, the second valve, the third valve and the fourth valve are opened. Pure steam enters the homogenizer body through the inlet pipe and the first pipe and enters the outlet grinding head through the second pipe, so as to achieve the purpose of high-temperature sterilization of the whole homogenizer body. When the homogenizer body is in normal production, only the first valve needs to be opened, and the second valve, the third valve and the fourth valve are closed and prohibited from being opened. Then the material can enter the homogenizer body through the inlet pipe and the first pipe for production and is output through the third pipe. An inlet is added to the upper end of the outlet grinding head and is connected with the second pipe. One end of the second pipe is connected with the inlet pipe. CIP cleaning enters the outlet grinding head through the inlet pipe and the second pipe to increase the water flow rate and the impact force of water, so as to achieve the purpose of thoroughly cleaning the residual material in the pipeline. When sterilization is carried out, pure steam medium enters the outlet grinding head through the inlet pipe and the second pipe. At the same time, the steam trap is started to drain condensate water to ensure the temperature in the pipeline, so as to increase the steam pressure and achieve the purpose of sterilizing the homogenizer and the connecting pipeline.

Detailed Embodiments
[0017] The following will describe in detail the embodiments of the present utility model. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model and should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.
[0018] The first embodiment of the present application is as follows:
[0019] Please refer to Figure 1 , where Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the cleaning and sterilization structure of the high-pressure homogenizer according to the first embodiment of the present utility model.
[0020] The present utility model provides a cleaning and sterilization structure for a high-pressure homogenizer, which includes a homogenizing body 101, an outlet grinding head 102, and a cleaning assembly. The cleaning assembly includes a first pipeline 103, a first valve 104, an introduction pipeline 105, a second pipeline 106, a second valve 107, a third valve 108, a derivation member, and a Y-shaped filter 109. The derivation member includes a third pipeline 110, a derivation pipeline 111, a fourth pipeline 112, and a fourth valve 113. Through the foregoing solution, the problems that in the prior art, during the cleaning and sterilization before and after production of the homogenizer, the cleaning water flow rate at the material outlet is low and the sterilization pressure is low, and thus the cleaning and sterilization effect cannot be achieved are solved. It can be understood that the foregoing solution can be used in cases where it is necessary to improve the cleaning and sterilization effect of the homogenizer.
[0021] In this embodiment, the outlet grinding head 102 is arranged on the homogenizing body 101. The homogenizing body 101 has one or several reciprocating pistons. The material enters a valve group with adjustable pressure under the action of the pistons. After passing through a limiting gap with a specific width, the material with an instantaneously reduced pressure sprays out at an extremely high flow rate and collides with an impact ring of one of the impact valve assemblies, generating three effects: cavitation effect, impact effect, and shear effect. After being processed by these three effects, the particle size of the material can be uniformly refined to less than 100 nm, and the fragmentation rate is greater than 95%. Then, the refined and homogenized material is derived through the material outlet of the outlet grinding head 102.
[0022] Among them, the first pipeline 103 is connected to the homogenizing body 101 and is located on one side of the homogenizing body 101. The first valve 104 is arranged on the first pipeline 103 and is located on one side of the first pipeline 103. The introduction pipeline 105 is connected to the first pipeline 103 and is located on one side of the first pipeline 103. The second pipeline 106 is connected to the introduction pipeline 105 and is located on one side of the introduction pipeline 105. The second valve 107 is arranged on the second pipeline 106 and is located on one side of the second pipeline 106. The third valve 108 is arranged on the second pipeline 106 and is located on one side of the second pipeline 106. The export component is arranged on the outlet grinding head 102 and is connected to the first pipeline 103. The first pipeline 103 is fixedly installed on the homogenizing body 101 by bolts and is communicated with the feed inlet of the homogenizing body 101. The first valve 104 is arranged on the first pipeline 103. Through the first valve 104, the flow of the medium in the first pipeline 103 can be controlled. The introduction pipeline 105 is welded to the first pipeline 103 and is communicated with the first pipeline 103. Through the introduction pipeline 105, an external pipeline can be connected to introduce materials, injection water or pure steam medium. The second pipeline 106 is welded to the introduction pipeline 105 and is communicated with the introduction pipeline 105. The second valve 107 is arranged on the second pipeline 106. The third valve 108 is arranged on the second pipeline 106. Through the second valve 107 and the third valve 108, the flow of the medium in the second pipeline 106 can be controlled. The export component is arranged at the discharge port of the outlet grinding head 102. Through the export component, the materials, injection water or pure steam medium in the outlet grinding head 102 can be exported. Thus, when it is necessary to clean the homogenizing body 101, the first valve 104 is controlled to open through a program, and at the same time, the second valve 107 and the third valve 108 are closed. After flushing for 5 minutes, the second valve 107 and the third valve 108 are opened, and the first valve 104 is closed for flushing for 5 minutes. Such flushing is repeated 3 times to clean the homogenizing body 101. When it is necessary to sterilize the homogenizing body 101, the first valve 104, the second valve 107, the third valve 108 and the fourth valve 113 are opened. Pure steam enters the homogenizing body 101 through the introduction pipeline 105 and the first pipeline 103 and enters the outlet grinding head 102 through the second pipeline 106, so as to achieve the purpose of high-temperature sterilization of the whole homogenizing body 101. When the homogenizing body 101 is in normal production, only the first valve 104 needs to be opened, and the second valve 107, the third valve 108 and the fourth valve 113 are closed and prohibited from being opened.The material can enter the homogenization body 101 through the import pipeline 105 and the first pipeline 103 for production, and finally enter the next production process from the third pipeline 110 through the outlet grinding head 102. A liquid inlet is added at the upper end of the outlet grinding head 102, and one end of the second pipeline 106 is connected thereto. The other end of the second pipeline 106 is connected to the import pipeline 105. Media such as pure steam or injection water introduced through the import pipeline 105 and the second pipeline 106 enter the outlet grinding head 102 to increase the steam pressure to assist in cleaning and sterilization, and at the same time have no impact on product production, thereby improving the cleaning and sterilization effect during cleaning and sterilization before and after production.
[0023] Secondly, the third pipeline 110 is connected to the outlet grinding head 102 and is located on one side of the outlet grinding head 102; the export pipeline 111 is connected to the third pipeline 110 and is located on one side of the third pipeline 110. The third pipeline 110 is fixedly installed at the discharge port of the outlet grinding head 102 by bolts and is communicated with the discharge port of the outlet grinding head 102. At the same time, the export pipeline 111 is welded to the third pipeline 110 and is communicated with the third pipeline 110. Through the third pipeline 110 and the export pipeline 111, the material, injection water or pure steam medium in the outlet grinding head 102 can be exported.
[0024] At the same time, the fourth pipeline 112 is respectively connected to the first pipeline 103 and the third pipeline 110. The fourth pipeline 112 is located on the side of the first pipeline 103 close to the third pipeline 110. The fourth valve 113 is arranged on the fourth pipeline 112 and is located on one side of the fourth pipeline 112. Both ends of the fourth pipeline 112 are welded to the first pipeline 103 and the third pipeline 110 respectively. At the same time, both ends of the fourth pipeline 112 are communicated with the first pipeline 103 and the third pipeline 110 respectively. The fourth valve 113 is arranged on the fourth pipeline 112, and the steam trap 114 is arranged on the fourth pipeline 112 and is located on the side of the fourth pipeline 112 close to the fourth valve 113. Thus, the pure steam condensate in the first pipeline 103 can be exported from the third pipeline 110 and the export pipeline 111 through the fourth pipeline 112. The flow of the fourth pipeline 112 can be controlled through the fourth valve 113, so that when the homogenization body 101 is sterilized, the fourth valve 113 is intermittently opened to export pure steam condensate. When the homogenization body 101 is in the process of cleaning and sterilization, the fourth valve 113 is opened. At the same time, the steam trap 114 can automatically identify the condensate generated during steam sterilization and discharge it through the fourth pipeline 112. In other states, the fourth valve 113 is in the closed state.
[0025] Finally, the Y-shaped filter 109 is disposed on the first pipe 103 and on one side of the first pipe 103. The Y-shaped filter 109 is disposed on the first pipe 103. Before the material enters the high-pressure homogenizer, the Y-shaped filter 109 can effectively intercept larger solid impurities in the material, thereby preventing large particle impurities from affecting the homogenization effect.
[0026] When using the cleaning and sterilization structure of a high-pressure homogenizer according to this embodiment, when it is necessary to clean the homogenizer body 101, the first valve 104 is controlled to open through a program. At the same time, the second valve 107, the third valve 108 and the export member are closed. After flushing for 5 minutes, the second valve 107 and the third valve 108 are opened, and the first valve 104 is closed for flushing for 5 minutes. Repeating this 3 times can clean the homogenizer body 101. When it is necessary to sterilize the homogenizer body 101, the first valve 104, the second valve 107, the third valve 108 and the fourth valve 113 are opened. Pure steam enters the homogenizer body 101 through the inlet pipe 105 and the first pipe 103 and enters the outlet grinding head 102 through the second pipe 106, thereby achieving the purpose of high-temperature sterilization of the entire homogenizer body 101. When the homogenizer body 101 is in normal production, only the first valve 104 needs to be opened. The second valve 107, the third valve 108 and the fourth valve 113 are closed and prohibited from being opened. The material can enter the homogenizer body 101 through the inlet pipe 105 and the first pipe 103 for production, and finally enter the next production process through the outlet grinding head 102 from the third pipe 110. An inlet is added to the upper end of the outlet grinding head 102 and one end of the second pipe 106 is connected thereto. The other end of the second pipe 106 is connected to the inlet pipe 105. Media such as pure steam or injection water introduced through the inlet pipe 105 and the second pipe 106 enter the outlet grinding head 102 to increase the steam pressure to assist in cleaning and sterilization, and at the same time have no influence on product production, thereby improving the cleaning and sterilization effect during cleaning and sterilization before and after production.
[0027] The above-disclosed are only one or more preferred embodiments of the present application, and the scope of rights of the present application cannot be limited thereby. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand all or part of the processes of implementing the above embodiments, and the equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present application still fall within the scope covered by the present application.
