Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chili processing technology, specifically to a device for pulverizing and distilling crude chili red pigment. Background Technology

[0002] Capsaicin is a natural carotenoid pigment with a bright color, high color value, strong coloring power, and excellent color retention, making it widely used in food processing. Typically, capsaicin is extracted from red chili peppers. This process involves crushing dried chilies, injecting an extractant to extract a solution containing capsaicin, and finally distilling to obtain pure crude capsaicin.

[0003] In traditional production processes, separate equipment is typically used for the crushing, extraction, and distillation of dried chilies. This processing method has several problems:

[0004] (1) Complex process: Traditional production process requires multiple steps such as crushing, extraction and distillation, each of which requires separate equipment and operation, increasing the complexity of the production process.

[0005] (2) Energy waste: Independent equipment requires separate power supply and cleaning, resulting in energy waste and increased costs, which is not conducive to energy conservation, emission reduction and production cost control.

[0006] (3) Site occupation: Multiple independent equipment need to be installed separately, which occupies a large amount of production space and increases the company's fixed asset investment.

[0007] (4) Inefficient: Due to the need for multiple transfers and operations, the traditional production process is inefficient and has a long production cycle, which is not conducive to improving production efficiency.

[0008] Therefore, a device for pulverizing and distilling crude capsicum pigment is proposed. Utility Model Content

Adjust the vertical height of the motor 16 by using the electric push rod 17 so that the motor shaft gear 1402 meshes with the blade shaft gear 1403 to crush the dried chili peppers. After the crushing is completed, the vertical height of the motor is adjusted by the electric push rod 17 so that the incomplete gear 1401 of the motor meshes with the toothed groove 13 of the crushing box cover 5, driving the crushing box 7 to rotate back and forth, throwing the dried chili flakes of the appropriate size in the crushing box 7 into the extraction box 6. At the same time, the liquid inlet 2 is opened to input the extractant. The vertical height of the motor 16 is adjusted again so that the motor shaft gear 1402 meshes with the crushing box gear 1404, driving the crushing box 7 to rotate counterclockwise. The scraper 10 on the outer wall of the crushing box 7 guides the dried chili flakes that splashed on the inner wall of the extraction box 6 in the previous step to the bottom of the extraction box 6. The scraper 10 at the bottom can also further stir the extractant and dried chili flakes to promote mixing. The heating resistor at the bottom of the extraction box 6 is energized to accelerate the extraction process. The steam outlet of the extraction box cover 3 is opened to distill and discharge the extract, and the residue is discharged from the bottom outlet.

[0033] It should be noted that when the motor incomplete gear 1401 meshes with the blade shaft gear 1403, it will drive the blade shaft 11 to rotate, thereby driving the crushing blade 8 to rotate at high speed, and crushing the dried chili peppers through the crushing blade 8.

[0034] The filter assembly includes a toothed groove 13, and the toothed groove 13 is provided on the upper surface of the crushing box cover 5.

[0037] It should be noted that by opening the liquid inlet 2, the extractant is added into the extraction box 6. Then, the electric push rod 17 drives the motor 16 to move, so that the motor shaft gear 1402 meshes with the grinding box gear 1404, thereby driving the grinding box 7 to rotate counterclockwise. The scraper 10 on the outer wall of the grinding box 7 guides the dried chili fragments splashed on the inner wall of the extraction box 6 to the bottom of the extraction box 6. The scraper 10 at the bottom can also further stir the extractant and dried chili fragments to promote mixing. The heating resistor at the bottom of the extraction box 6 is energized to accelerate the extraction process. The steam outlet of the extraction box cover 3 is opened to allow the extract to be distilled and discharged.

[0040] In summary: This utility model first removes the top cover 5 of the crushing box, puts dried chili peppers into the crushing box 7, and then puts the top cover 5 of the crushing box and the top cover 3 of the extraction box back on. The vertical height of the motor 16 is adjusted by the electric push rod 17 so that the motor shaft gear 1402 meshes with the blade shaft gear 1403 to crush the dried chili peppers. After the crushing is completed, the vertical height of the motor is adjusted by the electric push rod 17 so that the incomplete gear 1401 of the motor meshes with the toothed groove 13 of the crushing box cover 5, driving the crushing box 7 to rotate back and forth, throwing the dried chili flakes of the appropriate size in the crushing box 7 into the extraction box 6. At the same time, the liquid inlet 2 is opened to input the extractant. The vertical height of the motor 16 is adjusted again so that the motor shaft gear 1402 meshes with the crushing box gear 1404, driving the crushing box 7 to rotate counterclockwise. The scraper 10 on the outer wall of the crushing box 7 guides the dried chili flakes that splashed on the inner wall of the extraction box 6 in the previous step to the bottom of the extraction box 6. The scraper 10 at the bottom can also further stir the extractant and dried chili flakes to promote mixing.
