Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of radiation treatment devices, in particular to a radiation treatment device for irradiating sodium alginate. Background Art

[0002] As a common chemical substance, sodium alginate plays an important role in the fields of food, medicine and cosmetics. Generally, irradiation treatment of sodium alginate with an electron accelerator is an effective means to sterilize and inactivate sodium alginate, greatly slowing down or preventing the decomposition, oxidation or deterioration of sodium alginate. In practical applications, by precisely controlling the irradiation dose, the molecular weight of sodium alginate can be degraded and adjusted, and then its viscosity, solubility and rheology can be adjusted, and even its molecular structure and properties can be changed. In this way, the functional characteristics of sodium alginate such as hygroscopicity, gel-forming ability, and emulsification stability can be improved, providing a broader space for its application in various fields.

[0003] However, existing technologies for irradiating sodium alginate have several drawbacks. The irradiation process requires specialized equipment such as electron accelerators, which are expensive, require strict operating techniques, and lack a complete set of automated processing equipment. This has limited its widespread application in small businesses or research institutions. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide an irradiation treatment device for irradiating sodium alginate, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0006] A radiation treatment device for irradiating sodium alginate comprises a stock solution storage tank, a radiation treatment mechanism, a product storage tank and a control cabinet for fully automated control. The radiation treatment mechanism mainly comprises an accelerator titanium window, an active roller and a driven roller. The sodium alginate stock solution in the stock solution storage tank drips onto the active roller through a discharge pipe. The active roller is driven by a motor and simultaneously drives the driven roller to rotate. The motor is controlled to work automatically by the control cabinet. The active roller and the driven roller rotate synchronously to squeeze the sodium alginate stock solution on the surface of the active roller, so that it evenly passes through the irradiated electron beam emitted by the accelerator titanium window and falls into a beam collection box arranged below. The product in the beam collection box is then transported to the product storage tank through a receiving pipe.

[0007] Preferably, the end of the discharge pipe is connected to a filling port, which is arranged directly above the active roller. A filling gear pump is installed on the discharge pipe at the entrance of the filling port, and the filling gear pump is also automatically controlled by the control cabinet.

[0008] Preferably, a liquid collecting gear pump is installed on the material receiving pipeline, and the liquid collecting gear pump is also controlled by a control cabinet to operate automatically.

[0009] Preferably, the active roller is a disc-shaped structure, connected to the output end of the motor through a main transmission chain and driven by the motor to rotate counterclockwise.

[0010] Preferably, the mounting shaft of the active roller and the mounting shaft of the driven roller are connected via a driven chain transmission, thereby synchronously driving the driven roller to rotate counterclockwise.

[0011] Preferably, the gap between the outer rings of the active roller and the driven roller is equal to the standard thickness of the sodium alginate stock solution after irradiation.

[0012] Preferably, the under-beam collecting box is arranged below the active roller, and the bottom of the active roller extends into the under-beam collecting box. A pair of under-beam scrapers are installed on the inner wall of the under-beam collecting box near the bottom edge of the active roller to scrape the sodium alginate product attached to the surface of the active roller into the under-beam collecting box.

[0013] Preferably, the motor is installed adjacent to the under-beam collecting box, and a radiation shielding lead sheet is installed on the outside of the motor to effectively avoid the influence of the irradiated electron beam on the motor.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] In the utility model, a set of automated production equipment specially used for irradiating sodium alginate is designed. The sodium alginate stock solution in the stock solution storage tank is sent to the filling port through a pipeline, and then continuously drips onto the surface of the active roller. The active roller and the driven roller rotate synchronously to squeeze the sodium alginate stock solution on the surface of the active roller, so that it evenly passes through the irradiated electron beam emitted by the accelerator titanium window and falls into the beam collection box arranged below. Then, the product in the beam collection box is transported to the product storage tank through the material receiving pipeline. The whole process is automatically controlled by the control cabinet, and no manual operation is required, which is convenient for application and promotion. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0020] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, an irradiation treatment device for irradiating sodium alginate includes a raw liquid storage tank 1, an irradiation treatment mechanism, a product storage tank 18 and a control cabinet 13 for full automatic control. The irradiation treatment mechanism mainly includes an accelerator titanium window 5, an active roller 7 and a driven roller 10. The sodium alginate raw liquid in the raw liquid storage tank 1 drips onto the active roller 7 through the discharge pipe 2. The active roller 7 is driven by a motor 15 and drives the driven roller 10 to rotate at the same time. The motor 15 is controlled to work automatically by the control cabinet 13. The active roller 7 and the driven roller 10 rotate synchronously to squeeze the sodium alginate raw liquid on the surface of the active roller 7, so that it evenly passes through the irradiation electron beam 6 emitted by the accelerator titanium window 5 and falls into the beam collection box 12 arranged below. The product in the beam collection box 12 is then transported to the product storage tank 18 through the receiving pipe 16.

[0021] In this embodiment, the end of the discharge pipe 2 is connected to a filling port 4, which is located directly above the active roller 7. A filling gear pump 3 is installed on the discharge pipe 2 at the entrance of the filling port 4. The filling gear pump 3 is also automatically controlled by the control cabinet 13. A liquid collection gear pump 17 is installed on the receiving pipe 16, and the liquid collection gear pump 17 is also automatically controlled by the control cabinet 13.

[0022] In this embodiment, the active roller 7 is a disc-shaped structure, connected to the output of a motor 15 via a main drive chain 8 and driven by the motor 15 for counterclockwise rotation. The mounting axis of the active roller 7 is connected to the mounting axis of the driven roller 10 via a driven chain 9, synchronously driving the driven roller 10 in counterclockwise rotation. The gap between the outer rings of the active roller 7 and the driven roller 10 is equal to the standard thickness of the sodium alginate solution after irradiation.

[0023] In this embodiment, the under-beam collecting box 12 is arranged below the active roller 7, and the bottom of the active roller 7 extends into the under-beam collecting box 12. A pair of under-beam scrapers 11 are installed on the inner wall of the under-beam collecting box 12 near the bottom edge of the active roller 7 to scrape the sodium alginate product attached to the surface of the active roller 7 into the under-beam collecting box 12.

[0024] In actual use, the control cabinet 13 first controls the filling gear pump 3 to start, transferring the sodium alginate solution from the solution storage tank 1 to the filling port 4 via the discharge pipe 2. The filling gear pump 3 can be controlled at a speed to ensure a continuous and stable flow of sodium alginate solution from the filling port 4. Simultaneously, the control cabinet 13 synchronously starts the motor 15, which drives the active roller 7 counterclockwise via the main transmission chain 8. The sodium alginate solution dripping onto the surface of the active roller 7 rotates with it. The driven roller 10 is arranged downstream of the dripping position of the filling port 4. Since the thickness of the sodium alginate stock solution just dripped onto the surface of the active roller 7 is relatively thick, it cannot be completely irradiated by the accelerator titanium window 5. Therefore, when passing through the driven roller 10, the driven roller 10 is synchronously rotated counterclockwise by the active roller 7 through the driven chain 9. In addition, the gap between the outer rings of the active roller 7 and the driven roller 10 is equal to the standard irradiation thickness of the sodium alginate stock solution. The excess sodium alginate stock solution will be squeezed backward by the driven roller 10, and finally the thickness of the sodium alginate stock solution passing between the active roller 7 and the driven roller 10 just meets the standard irradiation thickness of the sodium alginate stock solution. In this way, by coordinating the dripping speed of the stock solution from the filling port 4, continuous and non-stop uniform irradiation production can be achieved. After irradiation, the sodium alginate stock solution becomes sodium alginate product. Since it continues to adhere to the active roller 7, a pair of under-beam scrapers 11 mounted on the inner wall of the under-beam collection box 12 scrape the sodium alginate product off, dropping it into the under-beam collection box 12. The cleaned active roller 7 then rotates back below the filling port 4, enabling continuous operation. Once a certain amount of sodium alginate product has fallen into the under-beam collection box 12, the control cabinet 13 activates the liquid collection gear pump 17, which then transfers the sodium alginate product through the receiving pipe 16 to the product storage tank 18 for storage, completing the automated irradiation production process.
