Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spray drying technology, and in particular to a spray dryer for traditional Chinese medicine extracts. Background Technology
[0002] Spray drying is a technology that converts liquid into powder. Specifically, it involves spraying liquid raw materials containing solid particles into a mist of droplets through a high-pressure nozzle, and then rapidly evaporating the moisture in a hot air stream, thus drying the solid substances in the droplets into powder. This technology is widely used in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
[0003] However, most commercially available equipment typically uses atomizing nozzles to spray raw materials directly. This design is prone to clogging during continuous spraying, significantly increasing maintenance and repair time and reducing equipment efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a spray-drying machine for traditional Chinese medicine extracts to address these issues. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a spray drying machine for traditional Chinese medicine extracts.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A spray drying machine for traditional Chinese medicine extract includes a support frame, a processing cylinder is bolted to the top outer wall of the support frame, a dispersing component is arranged inside the processing cylinder, and a cleaning component is arranged directly below the dispersing component.
[0007] The dispersion component includes a mounting column, inside which a high-speed motor is bolted. A turntable is mounted on the output end of the high-speed motor via a coupling. A rotating ring is provided on the outer wall of the turntable. A feed pipe is bolted to the outer wall of the rotating ring. A rotating disk is mounted on the bottom outer wall of the turntable via a sealed bearing. Several diversion pipes are integrally formed on the outer wall of the rotating disk. Atomizing nozzles are threadedly connected to the bottom outer wall of each diversion pipe.
[0008] The key concept of the above technical solution is that, by setting a high-speed motor, after the high-speed motor is started, the motor can drive the rotating disk, the diverter pipe and the atomizing nozzle to rotate together. Thanks to the action of high-speed centrifugal force, the raw material will be sprayed out of the atomizing nozzle, effectively preventing the clogging problem of the diverter pipe and the atomizing nozzle, thereby enhancing the practicality of the device.
[0009] Preferably, the rotating ring is movably connected to the turntable via a bearing, and the other end of the feed pipe away from the turntable extends to the outside of the processing cylinder.
[0010] Preferably, the diverter pipes are distributed in an equally spaced ring structure, and the diverter pipes are connected to the rotating disk.
[0011] Preferably, the cleaning component includes an assembly column, which is fixed to the outer wall of the bottom surface of the rotating disk by bearings. The assembly column has an equipment slot inside, and a motor is installed inside the equipment slot by bolts. The output end of the motor is connected to a rotating seat extending to the outside of the assembly column by a coupling.
[0012] Preferably, rotating rods distributed in a ring structure at equal intervals are bolted to the outer wall of the rotating seat, a cleaning plate is bolted to the outer wall of one end of the rotating rod, and a connecting rod connected to the inner wall of the processing cylinder is bolted to one side of the outer wall of the assembly column.
[0013] Preferably, an air inlet pipe is provided on one side of the top outer wall of the processing cylinder, and an air outlet pipe is provided on the other side of the top outer wall of the processing cylinder away from the air inlet pipe.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. With the high-speed motor in place, once started, the motor drives the rotating disc, the distributor pipe, and the atomizing nozzle to rotate together. Thanks to the high-speed centrifugal force, the raw material will be sprayed out of the atomizing nozzle, effectively preventing the clogging of the distributor pipe and the atomizing nozzle, thereby enhancing the practicality of the device.
[0016] 2. With the motor in place, once the motor is started, it will drive the rotating seat to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod and cleaning plate to rotate, so that the cleaning plate can effectively clean the inner wall of the device. This operation method can efficiently remove waste material inside the device, reduce the time required for cleaning, and improve the cleaning efficiency of residual powder in the device.

A processing cylinder 2 is bolted to the top outer wall of the support frame 1. A dispersion component 3 is arranged inside the processing cylinder 2, and a cleaning component 4 is arranged directly below the dispersion component 3. The dispersion component 3 includes a mounting column 31. A high-speed motor 32 is bolted to the inside of the mounting column 31.

Several diversion pipes 37 are integrally formed on the outer wall of the rotating disk 36. Atomizing nozzles 38 are threaded to the bottom outer wall of the diversion pipes 37. First, the raw material is injected into the interior of the rotating ring 34 through the feed pipe 35. Then, the high-speed motor 32 is started. During continuous material injection, the high-speed motor 32 drives the turntable 33 to rotate. The material enters the atomizing nozzle 38 through the diversion pipe 37 and the rotating disk 36, and is then atomized and sprayed into the processing cylinder 2 using the atomizing nozzle 38. This structure utilizes the centrifugal force generated by the high-speed motor 32 to prevent blockage of the device by the material, thus ensuring its usability. The rotating ring 34 is movably connected to the turntable 33 via bearings. The feed pipe 35 extends from the turntable 33 to the outside of the processing cylinder 2, facilitating material injection by the operator. The diversion pipes 37 are arranged in an evenly spaced ring structure and are connected to the rotating disk 36.

An equipment slot 42 is provided inside the assembly column 41. A motor 43 is installed inside the equipment slot 42 by bolts. The output end of the motor 43 is connected to a rotating seat 44 extending to the outside of the assembly column 41 by a coupling. When the motor 43 is started, the motor 43 installed inside the equipment slot 42 will run, and the rotating seat 44 will rotate by the connection between the motor 43 and the rotating seat 44. This structure provides power transmission for the rotation of the cleaning plate 46.
[0027] See Figure 3Rotary base 44 has rotating rods 45 arranged in a ring at equal intervals on its outer wall by bolts. A cleaning plate 46 is bolted to one end of the outer wall of the rotating rod 45. A connecting rod 47 connected to the inner wall of the processing cylinder 2 is bolted to one side of the outer wall of the assembly column 41. When the rotating base 44 rotates, it drives the rotating rods 45 to rotate, and the rotating rods 45 drive the cleaning plate 46 to clean the inner wall of the processing cylinder 2, which facilitates the removal of residues by the operator. An air inlet pipe 5 is provided on one side of the top outer wall of the processing cylinder 2, and an air outlet pipe 6 is provided on the other side of the top outer wall of the processing cylinder 2 away from the air inlet pipe 5.

[0028] Using the above method, the motor 43, once started, will drive the rotating seat 44 to rotate. The rotating seat 44 will then drive the rotating rod 45 and the cleaning plate 46 to rotate, so that the cleaning plate 46 can effectively clean the inner wall of the device. This operation method can efficiently remove waste materials inside the device, reduce the time required for cleaning, and improve the cleaning efficiency of residual powder in the device.

[0030] Example 1
[0031] A spray drying machine for traditional Chinese medicine extract includes a support frame 1. A processing cylinder 2 is bolted to the top outer wall of the support frame 1. A dispersion component 3 is disposed inside the processing cylinder 2, and a cleaning component 4 is disposed directly below the dispersion component 3. The dispersion component 3 includes a mounting column 31. A high-speed motor 32 is bolted to the inside of the mounting column 31. A turntable 33 is mounted to the output end of the high-speed motor 32 via a coupling. A rotating ring 34 is disposed on the outer wall of the turntable 33. A feed pipe 35 is bolted to the outer wall of the rotating ring 34. A rotating disk 36 is mounted on the bottom outer wall of the turntable 33 via a sealed bearing. A... The device has several distribution pipes 37, and atomizing nozzles 38 are threaded onto the bottom outer wall of the distribution pipes 37. First, the raw material is injected into the inside of the rotating ring 34 through the feed pipe 35. Then, when the high-speed motor 32 is started, the high-speed motor 32 can drive the rotating disk 33 to rotate. During the continuous injection of raw material, the raw material will enter the inside of the atomizing nozzle 38 through the action of the distribution pipes 37 and the rotating disk 36. The atomizing nozzle 38 will then atomize and spray the raw material into the inside of the processing cylinder 2. This structure can utilize the centrifugal force brought by the high-speed motor 32 to avoid the inside of the device being blocked by the raw material, which would affect the use of the device.
[0032] The rotating ring 34 is movably connected to the turntable 33 via bearings. The feed pipe 35 extends to the outside of the processing cylinder 2 at the other end away from the turntable 33, facilitating the operator's injection of raw materials. The diversion pipes 37 are distributed in an evenly spaced ring structure and are connected to the rotating disk 36. The interconnection between the diversion pipes 37 and the rotating disk 36 improves the flow path of the raw materials, making the flow of raw materials more efficient. The cleaning component 4 includes an assembly column 41, which is fixed to the outer wall of the bottom surface of the rotating disk 36 via bearings. An equipment slot 42 is opened inside the assembly column 41, and a motor 43 is bolted inside the equipment slot 42. The output end of the motor 43 is connected to a rotating seat 44 extending to the outside of the assembly column 41 via a coupling. When the motor 43 is started, the motor 43 installed inside the equipment slot 42 will run and utilize... The connection between the motor 43 and the rotating seat 44 enables the rotating seat 44 to rotate, providing power transmission for the rotation of the cleaning plate 46. Rotating rods 45, evenly spaced and arranged in a ring structure, are bolted to the outer wall of the rotating seat 44. The cleaning plate 46 is bolted to one end of the outer wall of each rotating rod 45. A connecting rod 47, connected to the inner wall of the processing cylinder 2, is bolted to one side of the outer wall of the assembly column 41. When the rotating seat 44 rotates, it drives the rotating rods 45 to rotate, which in turn drives the cleaning plate 46 to clean the inner wall of the processing cylinder 2, facilitating the removal of residues by the operator. An air inlet pipe 5 is provided on one side of the top outer wall of the processing cylinder 2, and an air outlet pipe 6 is provided on the other side of the top outer wall of the processing cylinder 2 away from the air inlet pipe 5. The air inlet pipe 5 provides a location for hot air injection, while the air outlet pipe 6 makes airflow more efficient.
[0033] Working principle: In use, the raw material is first injected into the feed pipe 35 using a high-pressure pump or other equipment, and the air inlet pipe 5 and air outlet pipe 6 are connected to the external equipment. During continuous raw material injection, the high-speed motor 32 can be started, which drives the turntable 33 to rotate. During the continuous raw material injection process, the raw material will enter the atomizing nozzle 38 through the diversion pipe 37 and the rotating disk 36, and the atomizing nozzle 38 will spray the raw material into the processing cylinder 2. Then, hot air enters the processing cylinder 2 through the air inlet pipe 5 and dries the atomized raw material. The dried material will be discharged from the bottom of the processing cylinder 2, and the air outlet pipe 6 will discharge the cooled air. When the operator wants to clean the device, the motor 43 is started. The motor 43 will drive the rotating seat 44 to rotate, the rotating seat 44 will drive the rotating rod 45 to rotate, and the rotating rod 45 will drive the cleaning plate 46 to clean the inner wall of the processing cylinder 2.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
