Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of digital manufacturing equipment, and more specifically, to an automated digital β-carotene powder manufacturing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Beta-carotene is one of the carotenoids. It is the most common and relatively stable natural pigment in nature, covering all color systems from red to yellow. Due to its coloring, antioxidant and nutritional enhancement functions, beta-carotene is widely used in common foods and health products.

[0003] Currently, in the production of β-carotene, it is generally produced by using film-forming materials to encapsulate it into tiny particles, which are then spray-dried into powder. However, if a problem occurs during the powder production and transportation process, the equipment will not alarm or stop in time. In this case, staff need to rush to the site to stop the machine at the fault point. This means that it will take some time after the fault occurs before the machine can be stopped for inspection.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a digital automated β-carotene powder manufacturing equipment to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome at least one of the defects (deficiencies) of the prior art, this utility model provides a digital β-carotene powder automatic manufacturing equipment.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a digital β-carotene powder automatic manufacturing equipment, including a β-carotene liquid phase material delivery pump, a centrifugal atomizer, a spray drying tank and a control panel;

[0007] The β-carotene liquid phase material delivery pump is connected to a centrifugal atomizer. The centrifugal atomizer rotates at high speed to disperse the β-carotene liquid phase material into a microemulsion. The centrifugal atomizer is placed in a spray drying tank. A blower is connected to the upper end of the spray drying tank. The blower is connected to a burner. The blower delivers the hot air generated by the burner to the spray drying tank to dry the microemulsion into microcapsule powder.

[0008] The bottom of the spray drying tank is connected to a dehumidifier and a vibrating screen. The dehumidifier dehumidifies the initial powder of the microcapsule powder in the spray drying tank to obtain β-carotene microcapsule powder. The vibrating screen vibrates and screens the β-carotene powder.

[0009] The β-carotene liquid phase material delivery pump, centrifugal atomizer, blower, burner, dehumidifier, and vibrating screen are all equipped with control sensor switches and alarms. The control panel is equipped with control buttons, which are connected to the control sensor switches. The β-carotene liquid phase material is dispersed into a microemulsion by the centrifugal atomizer, and then dried by hot air supplied by the blower and burner to form microcapsule powder. The microcapsule powder is then dehumidified by the dehumidifier to obtain β-carotene powder. In addition, since the β-carotene liquid phase material delivery pump, centrifugal atomizer, oil phase material lubrication delivery pump, blower, burner, dehumidifier, and vibrating screen are all equipped with control sensor switches and alarms, and the control panel is equipped with control buttons, the alarm will sound when there is an abnormal condition of the equipment. At this time, the staff only needs to operate the control buttons remotely to achieve real-time and digital management.

[0010] Furthermore, the control panel is equipped with a display screen for displaying the operating data of the β-carotene liquid material delivery pump, centrifugal atomizer, blower, burner, dehumidifier, and vibrating screen. The display screen is designed to facilitate the display of operating data of the β-carotene liquid material delivery pump, centrifugal atomizer, blower, burner, dehumidifier, and vibrating screen.

[0011] Furthermore, the β-carotene liquid material delivery pump is equipped with a connecting pipe with a switch. The β-carotene liquid material delivery pump is connected to the centrifugal atomizer through the connecting pipe with the switch. The connection pipe with the switch facilitates the delivery of β-carotene liquid material.

[0012] Furthermore, the dehumidifier, spray drying tank, and vibrating screen are connected by a powder conveying pipe. The powder conveying pipe facilitates the conveying of dehumidified powder from the spray drying tank to the vibrating screen.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a wind-powered buffer conveyor, a first induced draft fan, and a second induced draft fan. One end of the wind-powered buffer conveyor is connected to the spray drying tank via a connecting conduit, and the other end is connected to the first induced draft fan. The bottom of the wind-powered buffer conveyor is connected to the powder conveying pipe. The traction force of the first induced draft fan enhances the feeding speed of the β-carotene microcapsule powder at the bottom of the spray drying tank.

[0014] The second induced draft fan is installed between the wind-powered buffer conveyor and the spray drying tank. One end of the second induced draft fan is connected to the spray drying tank, and the other end is connected to the upper end of the vibrating screen, which further enhances the feeding speed of β-carotene microcapsule powder.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a dust collector and an air compressor connected to the dust collector. The dust collector is connected to the first induced draft fan through a pipe. The dust collector can collect the scattered dust and ensure a clean production environment.

[0016] Furthermore, the vibrating screen is equipped with a vibrating screen mesh, which is connected to the powder conveying pipeline. The β-carotene powder can be screened through the vibrating screen mesh to select β-carotene powder that meets the size requirements.

[0017] Furthermore, the bottom of the vibrating screen is equipped with a powder output port, which allows for the collection of the prepared β-carotene powder, making the process simple and convenient.

[0018] Furthermore, both the burner and the dust collector are equipped with exhaust pipes, which facilitate the collection of combustion exhaust gases and dust.

[0019] Furthermore, the centrifugal atomizer is equipped with a lubricating oil pump, which can be used to add lubricating oil to the centrifugal atomizer.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model's technical solution are:

[0021] This utility model discloses an automated digital β-carotene powder manufacturing equipment. It disperses β-carotene liquid material into a microemulsion using a centrifugal atomizer, then dries the microemulsion with hot air supplied by a blower and burner to form microcapsule powder. The microcapsule powder is then dehumidified using a dehumidifier to obtain β-carotene powder. Furthermore, control sensors and alarms are installed on the β-carotene liquid material delivery pump, centrifugal atomizer, oil phase material lubrication delivery pump, blower, burner, dehumidifier, and vibrating screen. Control buttons are provided on the control panel. When the equipment malfunctions, the alarm will sound, allowing operators to remotely control the equipment via the control buttons for real-time and digital management. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Example
