Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine concentration and extraction equipment, specifically a continuous extraction and concentration device for natural drugs. Background Technology
[0002] The chemical composition of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is extremely complex, containing multiple effective components, ineffective components, and even toxic components. Extracting its effective components and further separating and purifying them to obtain the effective monomers is an important aspect of TCM research. TCM extraction utilizes techniques to maximize the extraction of its effective components, thereby improving the intrinsic quality and clinical therapeutic effects of TCM preparations and maximizing the efficacy of TCM.
[0003] This utility model discloses a plant extraction and concentration device, relating to the field of plant extraction technology. It includes a main tank and an extraction assembly. The main tank has supporting columns at its bottom and supporting rods on both sides of its upper end. An extraction tank is mounted on the upper end of the supporting rods. The extraction assembly is located inside the extraction tank and includes a servo motor, a grinding roller, a grinding seat, a feed inlet, a water injection pipe, a filter screen, and a collection hopper. The front end of the servo motor is connected to the grinding roller, and a grinding seat is located outside the grinding roller. A feed inlet is located on the left side of the upper end of the extraction tank, and a water injection pipe is connected to the right side of the upper end. This plant extraction and concentration device, through the design of the extraction assembly, avoids the problem common in many plant extraction and concentration devices that lack the ability to grind plants, resulting in insufficient destruction of the plant's physical structure and inability to extract juice. This improves the overall efficiency of the plant extraction and concentration device. However, during use, the inner wall of the tank is heated to a high temperature, which may cause the solution to clump and adhere to the inner wall of the tank during the concentration process, reducing the solution's productivity and causing inconvenience to the user. Therefore, we propose a continuous extraction and concentration device for natural medicines. Utility Model Content

[0023] Example 1
[0024] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a continuous extraction and concentration device for natural medicines, including a concentration tank 1, a servo motor 2, and an evaporation pipe 5. The servo motor 2, a power source, is mounted on the top of the concentration tank 1. Solid phase feeding pipes 3, liquid phase feeding pipes 4, and evaporation pipes 5 are distributed around the servo motor 2. These pipes are interconnected with the concentration tank 1, but not directly connected. The concentration tank 1 stores natural medicine fragments. A material collection tray 12 is welded to the bottom of the inner wall of the concentration tank 1, and the bottom of the tray 12 is funnel-shaped. An inner clamping plate 11 is opened in the middle of the inner wall of the concentration tank 1. A thermocouple 13, providing heating function, is laid at the lower end of the material collection tray 12. A support 14 is laid at the lower end of thermocouple 13. A support 15 is welded around the bottom of the support 14, and the bottom of the support 15 is welded and fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the concentration tank 1. The concentration tank 1 serves as a device for concentrating and extracting natural medicines. The natural medicine solution is heated by thermocouple 13 until the effective components of the natural medicine are separated. Then, by continuous heating, the excess water in the solution is evaporated and discharged to meet the requirements of the concentrated solution. By discharging the concentrated solution, the requirements for the concentration and extraction of natural medicines can be met, which is convenient for users. At the same time, the concentration tank 1 is equipped with a solid phase inlet pipe 3, a liquid phase inlet pipe 4, and an evaporation pipe 5, which allows users to introduce solid and liquid phases into the concentration tank 1 according to their needs. The high-temperature steam is discharged through the evaporation pipe 5 to ensure that the concentration tank 1 can be used effectively in production.
[0025] Example 2
[0026] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a continuous extraction and concentration device for natural medicines. A drive shaft 21 is keyed to the lower end of a servo motor 2, and an upper stirring blade 22 is keyed to the outer wall of the middle section of the drive shaft 21. Movable discs 23 are welded to both sides of the outer wall of the upper stirring blades 22, and the outer wall of the movable discs 23 is fitted into an inner clamping disc 11. A through hole 231 is provided on one side of the movable discs 23. A lower stirring blade 24 is keyed to the outer wall of the lower end of the drive shaft 21, and a support frame 25 is movably connected to the bottom of the lower end of the drive shaft 21. The support frame 25 is fixed above the discharge port of the material collection disc 12, and the material collection disc 12 and the drive shaft 24 are connected together. The center points of shafts 21 coincide. One end of the lower stirring blade 24 is welded with a wall scraping blade 26, and the outer wall of the wall scraping blade 26 is attached to the inner wall of the concentration tank 1. The servo motor 2 serves as the power source for the stirring system. By starting the servo motor 2, the transmission shaft 21 is driven to rotate synchronously. The upper stirring blade 22 and the lower stirring blade 24 synchronously drive the internal concentrated solution to rotate at high speed, accelerating the evaporation of the concentrated solution. At the same time, during the concentration process, due to the high temperature of the inner wall of the concentration tank 1, the solution may stick to the wall and gelatinize. Therefore, a wall scraping blade 26 is installed between the upper stirring blade 22 and the lower stirring blade 24, which is attached to the inner wall of the concentration tank 1. The combined scraping blade 26 continuously scrapes the inner wall and stirs the solution, reducing the possibility of the solution sticking to the wall, gelatinizing, and clumping, thus ensuring the normal extraction and concentration of traditional Chinese medicine solutions in the concentration tank 1. A reinforcing rib 262 is welded to the connection between the scraping blade 26 and the lower stirring blade 24, and a connecting screw 261 is fixed to the upper end of the scraping blade 26. The connecting screw 261 passes through the through hole 231 of the movable disk 23, and the connecting screw 261 is bolted to the movable disk 23. This scraping blade 26, as the inner wall scraping component of the concentration tank 1, is made entirely of metal and is fixed by welding. To ensure the long-term stable operation of the wall scraping blade 26, a connecting screw 261 is installed on the lower stirring blade 24, so that the wall scraping blade 26 is connected and fixed to the movable disk 23, ensuring the rationality and stability of the overall structure. At the same time, since a single wall scraping blade 26 may cause the drive shaft 21 to be eccentric, which is not conducive to the long-term stable operation of the drive shaft 21, an inner clamping plate 11 with movable protection is provided on the outer wall of the movable disk 23. The inner clamping plate 11 constrains the movable disk 23, ensuring that the movable disk 23 rotates at a uniform speed along the inner wall of the inner clamping plate 11 during rotation, thus meeting the requirement for the long-term stable operation of the drive shaft 21.
[0027] Working Principle: For this type of continuous extraction and concentration device for natural medicines, the herbal medicine fragments are first fed into the concentration tank 1 through the solid phase feeding pipe 3 according to the formula ratio. The liquid to be introduced is introduced into the concentration tank 1 through the liquid phase feeding pipe 4. When a certain amount of solution is stored in the concentration tank 1, the thermocouple 13 is turned on to heat the concentration tank 1. At the same time, the servo motor 2 is started, and the drive shaft 21 rotates synchronously, driving the upper stirring blade 22, the moving plate 23, the lower stirring blade 24, and the wall scraping blade 26 to rotate synchronously. After the herbal medicine solution is heated and mixed, the water molecules inside are heated into steam. The high-temperature steam is discharged from the evaporation pipe 5, which meets the requirements of the concentrated solution. Finally, when the internal solution is concentrated to a certain extent, the valve at the bottom of the material collection plate 12 is opened, and the solution is discharged from the bottom. At the same time, the above operation is repeated to continuously extract and concentrate natural medicines, thus completing the entire process of using the continuous extraction and concentration device for natural medicines.
