[0003] The extraction of capsicum meal protein is a technological process involving multiple steps. First, degreasing treatment is required. The degreased capsicum meal can be used for further protein extraction. Common extraction methods include alkali extraction, ultrasonic-assisted extraction, etc. Taking alkali extraction as an example, the degreased capsicum meal is mixed with a sodium hydroxide solution of a certain concentration in a certain proportion, stirred for a certain time at an appropriate temperature, so that the protein dissolves in the alkali solution.

[0028] Take out the partition assembly 4 from the rectangular box 5, so that the pepper meal blended with the sodium hydroxide solution enters the solid-liquid separation assembly 7.

[0031] In a specific implementation, add pepper meal and sodium hydroxide solution into the cylinder 1, turn on the motor 31 to drive the rotating rod 32 to rotate, thereby driving the three stirring plates 33 to rotate, and stir the pepper meal and the sodium hydroxide solution in the cylinder 1 to make the pepper meal and the sodium hydroxide solution fully blend, so as to improve the effect of extracting protein from pepper meal by using sodium hydroxide solution.
[0032] After the chili meal and the sodium hydroxide solution are fully mixed, the partition plate 41 is completely drawn out of the rectangular box 5, so that the chili meal mixed with the sodium hydroxide solution in the cylinder 1 enters the solid-liquid separation assembly 7;
[0033] The two limit blocks 43 and the two limit slots 44 can make the partition plate 41 more stable when installed in the rectangular box 5, and will not be displaced due to stirring, thus affecting the normal stirring of the chili meal and the sodium hydroxide solution by the stirring assembly 3.
[0034] Specifically, in order to perform solid-liquid separation on the chili meal mixed with the sodium hydroxide solution and facilitate the work of the staff to obtain the protein containing lye in the chili meal, refer to Figure 5 , the solid-liquid separation assembly 7 includes a fixing plate 71, the fixing plate 71 is slidably connected to the lower side of the inner surface of the rectangular box 5, a vibration assembly 72 is arranged at the upper end of the fixing plate 71, a collection box 73 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the vibration assembly 72, and a filtering assembly 74 is arranged on the inner surface of the collection box 73;

[0044] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:
[0045] Add pepper dregs and a quantitative sodium hydroxide solution into the cylinder 1, start the stirring component 3, and stir the pepper dregs and the sodium hydroxide solution to make the pepper dregs and the sodium hydroxide solution fully fuse;
[0046] After the pepper dregs and the sodium hydroxide solution are fully fused, completely withdraw the partition plate 41 from the rectangular box 5.
