Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically to a drying equipment for concentrated herb extract. Background Art

[0002] By atomizing the herbal extract into tiny droplets and rapidly exchanging heat with hot air, the moisture is evaporated in a very short time, achieving the purpose of drying. The resulting product is spherical granules with uniform particle size, high purity, and good quality, thus facilitating storage and transportation while increasing the added value of the product.

[0003] Because mesona chinensis contains a certain amount of polysaccharides, these substances can form a certain viscosity in solution. When mesona chinensis is boiled and concentrated into a liquid, these polysaccharides will be further concentrated, which will increase the viscosity of the mesona chinensis concentrate. When the viscous mesona chinensis is atomized using an atomizing nozzle, it is easy to form residue at the nozzle, which will gradually accumulate over time, eventually causing some nozzle holes to be blocked. This will affect the atomization uniformity of the mesona chinensis concentrate, that is, some areas have dense droplets and some areas have sparse droplets, thus affecting the overall drying effect of the product. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] Please see Figures 1-3 The figure shows a drying device for concentrated herbal extract, including a drying tank 102 disposed on a base plate 101, a liquid storage tank 103 disposed on the base plate 101, a liquid delivery pipe 104 disposed at the bottom outlet of the liquid storage tank 103, a hot air blower 105 disposed on the base plate 101, the air outlet of the hot air blower 105 being connected to the drying tank 102, an atomizing nozzle 106 disposed inside the drying tank 102, and a processing component disposed on the drying tank 102 for processing the concentrated herbal extract remaining at the nozzle orifice of the atomizing nozzle 106.

[0021] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The processing assembly shown in the figure includes a rotating tube 201 rotatably connected to the top of the drying tank 102. One end of the rotating tube 201 near the atomizing nozzle 106 is connected to a bellows 202, and the other end of the bellows 202 is connected to the atomizing nozzle 106. The drying tank 102 is provided with a pushing assembly for pushing the atomizing nozzle 106, and the rotating tube 201 is provided with a telescopic assembly for extending and retracting the atomizing nozzle 106 during the pushing process.

[0022] It should be noted that, through the configuration of the processing components, the telescopic and pushing components work together to drive the atomizing nozzle 106 to reciprocate up-and-down shaking and vibration, thereby reducing the residue and accumulation of the herbal extract at the nozzle orifice of the atomizing nozzle 106. This reduces the risk of the nozzle orifice of the atomizing nozzle 106 being blocked, further ensuring the uniformity of the atomization of the herbal extract and guaranteeing the overall drying effect of the herbal extract.

[0023] It is worth noting that a dust collector is provided on one side of the drying tank 102. The hot air inside the drying tank (102) is discharged through the dust collector. The dust collector can be installed on the top of the drying tank 102, but it is not shown here.

[0024] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the diagram, the end of the rotating tube 201 away from the atomizing nozzle 106 is rotatably connected to a ball joint 203, and the end of the infusion tube 104 away from the storage tank 103 is connected to the ball joint 203.

[0025] It should be noted that the ball joint 203 ensures that the rotation of the rotating tube 201 does not affect the liquid delivery of the infusion tube 104.

[0026] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The telescopic assembly shown in the figure includes a first mounting ring 301 fixedly connected to the rotating tube 201 located on the inner side wall of the drying tank 102. Two symmetrically arranged T-shaped rods 302 are fixedly connected to the side of the first mounting ring 301 near the atomizing nozzle 106. A second mounting ring 304 is slidably connected to the side wall of the two T-shaped rods 302. The second mounting ring 304 is connected to the side wall of the atomizing nozzle 106. Springs 303 are sleeved on the side wall of the two T-shaped rods 302. The two ends of the two springs 303 are respectively connected to the first mounting ring 301 and the second mounting ring 304.

[0027] It should be noted here that the telescopic component is designed to guide and reset the movement of the atomizing nozzle 106.

[0028] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The push assembly shown in the figure includes two L-shaped plates 401 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the drying tank 102. The two L-shaped plates 401 are symmetrically arranged with each other. The second mounting ring 304 is fixedly connected to four triangular push plates 402 on the side near the two L-shaped plates 401. The triangular push plates 402 are symmetrically arranged in pairs.

[0029] It should be noted here that by pushing the component, it is easy to reciprocate the movement of the atomizing nozzle 106 away from the rotating tube 201.

[0030] Working principle: When drying the concentrated herbal medicine, the concentrated herbal medicine is first placed in the storage tank 103. Then, a high-pressure pump is used to transport the concentrated herbal medicine through the delivery pipe 104 to the rotating pipe 201, and finally sprayed out from the atomizing nozzle 106. Before the concentrated herbal medicine is atomized and sprayed out, a hot air blower 105 blows hot air into the drying tank 102 to preheat the drying tank 102. When the concentrated herbal medicine is sprayed out from the atomizing nozzle 106, the hot air blower 105 continues to blow hot air, so that the atomized concentrated herbal medicine and the hot air exchange heat quickly, thereby evaporating the water in the concentrated herbal medicine in a very short time and achieving the purpose of drying.

[0031] Furthermore, during the rotation of the atomizing nozzle 106 driven by the rotating tube 201, the triangular push plate 402 on the second mounting ring 304 will reciprocate against the L-shaped plate 401. When the triangular push plate 402 abuts against the L-shaped plate 401, under the interaction force and the guiding action of the telescopic component, the atomizing nozzle 106 will move away from the rotating tube 201. When the triangular push plate 402 passes the L-shaped plate 401, under the elastic action of the telescopic component, the atomizing nozzle 106 will be pushed closer to the rotating tube 201. Thus, during the rotation of the atomizing nozzle 106, the triangular push plate 402 will reciprocate against the L-shaped plate 401. The reciprocating action of the moving plate 402 against the L-shaped plate 401, along with the guiding and resetting action of the telescopic component, causes the atomizing nozzle 106 to reciprocate up and down. This causes the end face of the second mounting ring 304 to reciprocate against the side wall of the L-shaped plate 401, thereby causing the atomizing nozzle 106 to reciprocate up and down shaking and vibrating. This reduces the residue and accumulation of the herbal extract at the nozzle orifice of the atomizing nozzle 106, thereby reducing the risk of the nozzle orifice of the atomizing nozzle 106 being blocked. This further ensures the uniformity of the atomization of the herbal extract and guarantees the overall drying effect of the herbal extract.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Please see Figure 3 This embodiment further illustrates Example 1. The drying tank 102 shown in the figure is provided with a rotating assembly for rotating the atomizing nozzle 106. The rotating assembly includes an L-shaped frame 501 fixedly connected to the top of the drying tank 102. The L-shaped frame 501 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 502. A gear 503 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft 502. A gear ring 504 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating tube 201. The gear ring 504 and the gear 503 are meshed with each other. A motor 505 is fixedly connected to the side of the L-shaped frame 501 away from the drying tank 102. The output end of the motor 505 is connected to the rotating shaft 502.

[0034] It should be noted that, through the setting of the rotating component, during the rotation of the motor 505, the gear 503 on the side wall of the rotating shaft 502 is driven to rotate. Under the mutual meshing transmission action of the gear 503 and the gear ring 504, the rotating tube 201 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the atomizing nozzle 106 to rotate. Thus, during the atomization spraying process, the concentrated herb extract is affected by centrifugal force, increasing the spraying area and thereby improving the atomization effect.

[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
