Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spraying heating and insulation technology, specifically to an extract spraying heating and insulation tank. Background Technology

[0002] Biopharmaceutical processes generally consist of extraction and granulation. Before spray granulation, the extract is typically stored in a tank. To ensure optimal granulation results, the extract temperature needs to be maintained between 60-70 degrees Celsius. However, existing storage tanks are relatively large; typically, spray granulation of 50L of extract takes about 1.5 hours. This extended granulation time causes the extract temperature to gradually decrease over time, negatively impacting the granulation effect.

[0003] To address the heating and insulation issues during the spray granulation of the extract, current methods typically involve installing heating and insulation pipes inside the tank to heat and insulate the extract. However, during the spray granulation process, some extract adheres to the walls of the heating and insulation pipes, which are difficult to remove. While water is usually used to flush away the extract from the pipe walls, directly rinsing away the extract would result in waste. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide an extract spraying heating and insulation tank, which can heat and keep the extract during spraying granulation while also quickly scraping off the extract on the wall of the insulation tube to reduce waste.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the specific solution adopted by this utility model is an extract spraying heating and insulation tank: it includes a tank body for holding extract, an opening at the upper end of the tank body for filling the tank body with extract, an outlet on the tank body for the extract to flow out for spraying and granulation, and an insulation pipe assembly detachably installed on one inner wall of the tank body. The insulation pipe assembly is arranged in an S-shape along the height direction of the tank body. The insulation pipe assembly includes multiple straight sections distributed in the vertical direction and curved sections connecting adjacent straight sections; one end of the insulation pipe assembly is a water inlet for hot water to flow in, and the other end of the insulation pipe assembly is a water outlet for water to flow out.

[0006] The straight section of the insulation pipe assembly is equipped with a cleaning arc plate that can slide vertically, and the cleaning arc plate is evenly distributed with mounting holes for the straight section to pass through.

[0007] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned extraction liquid spraying heating and insulation tank: a bolt hole is provided on the cleaning arc plate, and a detachable push-pull rod is connected to the bolt hole. The push-pull rod is screwed into the bolt hole and used to push the cleaning arc plate up or down in the vertical direction to scrape off the extraction liquid on the straight section of the pipe wall.

[0008] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned extraction liquid spraying heating and insulation tank, rubber rings are installed in all mounting holes.

[0009] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned extraction liquid spraying heating and insulation tank: a guide groove is provided on the outer side wall of the cleaning arc plate facing the tank body, and a guide slider is correspondingly provided on the inner side wall of the tank body along its height direction for sliding cooperation with the guide groove.

[0010] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned extraction liquid spraying heating and insulation tank: the upper part of the inner side wall of the tank is provided with clamps for fixing the insulation pipe assembly, and the lower part of the inner side wall of the tank is provided with a support plate for supporting the insulation pipe assembly.

[0011] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned extraction liquid spraying heating and insulation tank: an insulation heating box is set on one side of the tank body, and the inlet and outlet of the insulation pipe group are connected to the insulation heating box through circulation pipes. A water pump is connected to the circulation pipe between the insulation heating box and the inlet.

[0012] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned extraction liquid spraying heating and insulation tank: a fixed plate is fixed at the opening of the tank body and an opening and closing cover is rotatably set on the fixed plate, and a handle is fixed on the outer wall of the opening and closing cover.

[0013] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned extraction liquid spraying heating and insulation tank: a stirring motor is fixed on the fixed plate, and the output shaft of the stirring motor is connected to a stirring rod used to stir the extraction liquid.

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

[0015] In this invention, the insulation pipe assembly is S-shaped and bends along the height of the tank. The straight sections of the insulation pipe assembly are distributed vertically, and adjacent straight sections are connected by bends. Hot water enters the insulation pipe assembly through the inlet, and the heat emitted by the hot water heats and insulates the extract in the tank, maintaining it within a certain temperature range to ensure good granulation results during spraying. Water that has dissipated heat within the insulation pipe assembly flows out through the outlet, ensuring a continuous flow of hot water to maintain the continuous heating and insulation of the extract in the tank. Furthermore, a cleaning arc plate is installed on the insulation pipe assembly through corresponding mounting holes on the straight sections. After the extract flows out of the tank and is sprayed for granulation, the cleaning arc plate can be pushed down to scrape off the extract adhering to the inner wall of the tank and the walls of the straight sections, achieving rapid cleaning while reducing extract waste.

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Parts of this utility model that are not described in detail in the following embodiments, such as the models and specifications of the stirring motor, water pump, heat preservation heating box and electric heater, should be understood as prior art known or should be known by those skilled in the art.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an extract spray heating and insulation tank includes a tank body 1, an insulation pipe assembly 3 disposed inside the tank body 1, and a cleaning arc plate 4. The tank body 1 is capable of holding the extract. The upper end of the tank body 1 has an opening 101 for the extract to be poured into the tank body 1. A fixing plate 201 is fixed on the tank body 1 at approximately 2 / 3 of the position of the opening 101. An opening and closing cover 102 is rotatably installed at 1 / 3 of the position of the opening 101. The opening and closing cover 102 is rotatably connected to the fixing plate 201 by a hinge. A handle 1021 is fixed on the outer end face of the opening and closing cover 102 for easy gripping and opening.

[0022] The insulation pipe assembly 3 is detachably installed on the inner wall of the tank 1, which is equipped with a corresponding opening and closing cover 102. The opening 101 of the opening and closing cover 102 facilitates the installation and removal of the insulation pipe assembly 3. The insulation pipe assembly 3 is arranged in an S-shape along the height direction of the tank 1. The insulation pipe assembly 3 includes six straight sections 303 distributed vertically, with adjacent straight sections 303 spaced apart. Adjacent straight sections 303 are connected by bending sections 304. The pipe openings of the straight sections 303 on the left and right sides of the insulation pipe assembly 3 are located at the opening 101 of the tank 1. The pipe opening at the upper end of the right straight section 303 is the inlet pipe 302 for hot water to flow in, and the pipe opening at the upper end of the left straight section 303 is the outlet pipe 301 for water to flow out.

[0023] A heat preservation and heating box 7 is provided on one side of the tank body 1. The water inlet 302 of the heat preservation pipe group 3 is connected to the heat preservation and heating box 7 through the circulation pipe 6. The water outlet 301 of the heat preservation pipe group 3 is also connected to the heat preservation and heating box 7 through the circulation pipe 6. A water pump 8 is connected to the circulation pipe 6 between the water outlet 301 and the heat preservation and heating box 7.

[0024] The heat preservation and heating box 7 heats water through an electric heater installed inside it. The hot water heated by the heat preservation and heating box 7 flows into the heat preservation pipe group 3 through the water inlet 302. The hot water flowing into the heat preservation pipe group 3 heats and keeps the extract in the tank 1 by dissipating heat. After a certain period of time, the water in the heat preservation pipe group 3 loses a certain amount of heat and cools down. It can then flow into the heat preservation and heating box 7 through the water outlet 301 and the circulation pipe 6 for reheating.

[0025] The circulating water system can save water resources and energy consumption for heating water. On the one hand, the circulating water ensures that hot water that can provide a certain amount of heat can be continuously supplied into the insulation pipe group 3. On the other hand, the water that loses heat is reheated and circulated back into the insulation pipe group 3. Since the water that loses heat still has a certain amount of heat, the electric heater in the insulation heating box 7 only needs to consume a small amount of electricity to heat the water that loses heat into hot water.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, a stirring motor 2 is fixed on the fixed plate 201, and a stirring rod (not shown in the figure) is fixed on the output shaft of the stirring motor 2. The stirring rod is inserted vertically into the tank 1, and stirring blades are fixed on the stirring rod in an alternating manner. The stirring blades can rotate under the drive of the stirring motor 2 and stir the extract in the tank 1. Stirring ensures that the temperature in the extract is uniform.

[0027] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, two clamps 9 are spaced apart on the upper part of the inner wall of the tank 1 near the opening 101. Both clamps 9 are made of elastic plastic. Each clamp 9 includes a base 903 and two semi-circular clamp plates 902 with opposing arc openings on the base 903. A cavity 901 is formed between the two semi-circular clamp plates 902 to accommodate the bent section 304 of the insulation pipe assembly 3. An outwardly inclined guide plate 904 is provided on the outer side of each of the two semi-circular clamp plates 902. The inlet formed by the two guide plates 904 is horizontally oriented towards the inside of the tank 1. Under the action of external force, the bent section 304 of the insulation pipe assembly 3 is guided into the cavity 901 through the guide plate 904 and fixed.

[0028] like Figure 2As shown, the two upper curved sections 304 of the insulation pipe assembly 3 at the opening 101 can be locked into the corresponding clamps 9 under external force to achieve fixation. In addition, a support plate 10 is provided at the lower part of the inner wall of the tank body 1, corresponding to the positions of the three lower curved sections 304 of the insulation pipe assembly 3. The support plate 10 is horizontally set, and one side of the support plate 10 is fixed to the inner wall of the tank body 1. The upper end of the support plate 10 can bear the weight of the insulation pipe assembly 3 and assist the clamps 9 in fixing the insulation pipe assembly 3.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, an outlet 103 is provided on the outer wall of the tank 1 near its bottom. The extract flows out through the outlet 103 and is sprayed into granules. Since the heat-insulating pipe assembly 3 is located inside the tank 1, some extract will inevitably adhere to its pipe wall. To reduce the waste of extract, a cleaning arc plate 4 is provided on the heat-insulating pipe assembly 3. The cleaning arc plate 4 has six mounting holes 401 corresponding to the number of straight sections 303 of the heat-insulating pipe assembly 3. The heat-insulating pipe assembly 3 passes through the mounting holes 401 on the cleaning arc plate 4 in sequence. The cleaning arc plate 4 provided on the heat-insulating pipe assembly 3 can move up and down along the height direction of the straight section 303.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, rubber rings 403 are installed in each mounting hole 401. The cleaning arc plate 4 is positioned above the insulation tube assembly 3 by the friction of the rubber rings 403. Simultaneously, when the cleaning arc plate 4 moves downwards, the rubber rings 403 can scrape the extractant from the straight section 303 tube wall cleanly. Furthermore, the outer wall of the cleaning arc plate 4 facing the inner wall of the tank 1 contacts and adheres to the inner wall of the tank 1. A guide groove 402, rectangular in shape, is formed along the thickness direction on the outer wall of the cleaning arc plate 4 facing the middle of the inner wall of the tank 1. Correspondingly, a rectangular guide slider 5 is fixed along the height direction on the inner wall of the tank 1. The guide slider 5 is fitted into the guide groove 402 and can slide with it, allowing the cleaning arc plate 4 to move vertically downwards or upwards. As the cleaning arc plate 4 moves downwards, it can scrape off the extractant from the corresponding inner wall of the tank 1.

[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, a bolt hole 404 is provided in the middle of the upper end face of the cleaning arc plate 4. A push-pull rod (not shown in the figure) is screwed into the bolt hole 404. The lower end of the push-pull rod has an external thread for screwing into the bolt hole 404. After the push-pull rod is rotated and installed in the bolt hole 404, the personnel can push the cleaning arc plate 4 downward or pull it upward along the height direction of the tank 1 by holding the push-pull rod, which is convenient and quick.
