Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a purification and slag removal device, and more particularly to a capsanthin purification and slag removal device, belonging to the field of capsanthin production technology. Background Technology
[0002] Capsaicin is a natural pigment extracted from chili peppers. Its main components are carotenoids, including capsanthin and capsanthin. It has a bright red to orange-red color and is a safe, non-toxic food additive widely used in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
[0003] In the process of purifying and removing slag from capsanthin, after the chili raw material is crushed and extracted by solvent, a large number of tiny solid particles remain in the liquid. These particles are uneven in size and some are sticky, which easily agglomerate during filtration, clogging the filter screen or filter cloth pores. This leads to frequent shutdowns for cleaning or replacement of filter media, affecting production continuity and cost, and reducing the purification efficiency of capsanthin. Therefore, a capsanthin purification and slag removal device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0024] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this invention. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered exemplary in nature and not restrictive.
[0025] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a capsanthin purification and slag removal device, including a main component 10. The main component 10 includes a shell 11, a liquid outlet pipe 13, a first electric valve 14, a flow meter 15, a filter cylinder 16, and a through hole 17. The outer side wall of the shell 11 is connected to the liquid outlet pipe 13, and the first electric valve 14 and the flow meter 15 are installed on the liquid outlet pipe 13. The inner side wall of the shell 11 is fixedly connected to the filter cylinder 16, and the outer side wall of the filter cylinder 16 is uniformly provided with through holes 17. A filter screen is installed inside the filter cylinder 16 to filter out small solid particles. The through hole 17 facilitates the entry of the raw liquid into the outer shell 11. The pressure inside the filter cylinder 16 is increased by a booster pump 24, so that the capsanthin purification raw liquid passes through the filter screen installed inside the filter cylinder 16 and traps the solid particles in the filter screen. The purified liquid is discharged through the liquid outlet pipe 13. The first electric valve 14 is used to control the opening and closing of the liquid outlet pipe 13.
[0027] The main body component 10 is topped with a cover component 20, which includes a top cover 21, a drive motor 25, a transmission shaft 26, a spiral scraper 27, and a controller 28. The top of the top cover 21 is equipped with the drive motor 25, and the output shaft of the drive motor 25 is fixedly connected to one end of the transmission shaft 26. The spiral scraper 27 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission shaft 26. The top of the top cover 21 is equipped with the controller 28. When the number of solid particles on the surface of the filter screen increases, causing the flow rate of the liquid outlet pipe 13 to decrease, the flow meter 15 sends a signal to the controller 28. The controller 28 controls the drive motor 25 to work, driving the transmission shaft 26 and the spiral scraper 27 to rotate, cleaning the filter screen (not shown in the figure) inside the filter cylinder 16, preventing the filter screen from clogging. After the flow rate returns to normal, the drive motor 25 stops working, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the cleaning process and saving energy. The drive motor 25 is connected to the external mains power and electrically connected to the controller 28. The controller 28 controls the working state of the drive motor 25 to complete the intermittent cleaning work.
[0028] In this embodiment, specifically: a collection hopper 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter cylinder 16, and solid particles are transported into the collection hopper 18 for collection so as to be discharged later.
[0029] In this embodiment, specifically: the bottom end of the collection hopper 18 is connected to a waste discharge pipe 19, and a second electric valve 110 is installed on the waste discharge pipe 19. The waste discharge pipe 19 is used to discharge the collected solid particles. The second electric valve 110 can control the opening and closing of the waste discharge pipe 19. The first electric valve 14 and the second electric valve 110 are both electrically connected to the controller 28 and are automatically controlled by the controller 28.
[0030] In this embodiment, specifically: support legs 12 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the bottom of the housing 11, and the support legs 12 play a role in stabilizing support.
[0031] In this embodiment, specifically: the top cover 21 is fixedly connected to the housing 11 by the latch 22, and sealing rings are provided between the top cover 21, the housing 11 and the filter cartridge 16 to prevent liquid leakage and ensure that the housing 11 is sealed.
[0032] In this embodiment, specifically: a liquid inlet pipe 23 is installed on the top of the top cover 21, and the liquid inlet pipe 23 is connected to the filter cylinder 16. The purified capsanthin raw liquid enters the interior of the filter cylinder 16 through the liquid inlet pipe 23.
[0033] In this embodiment, specifically: a booster pump 24 is installed on the liquid inlet pipe 23. The booster pump 24 is connected to an external mains power supply. The booster pump 24 increases the liquid pressure inside the filter cylinder 16, so that the capsanthin purified raw liquid passes through the filter screen installed inside the filter cylinder 16 and traps solid particles inside the filter screen, thus completing the purification and slag removal process.
[0034] In this embodiment, specifically: a signal receiver 29 is installed on the top of the top cover 21. The signal receiver 29 is connected to the controller 28 and the signal receiver 29 is connected to the control console of the capsanthin production system so that the staff can manage the production equipment in a unified manner. The signal receiver 29 will feed back the obtained signal to the controller 28, and the controller 28 will control the purification and slag removal device to work.
[0035] In operation, the purified capsanthin extract enters the filter cylinder 16 through the inlet pipe 23. A booster pump 24 increases the liquid pressure inside the filter cylinder 16, causing the purified capsanthin extract to pass through the filter screen installed inside the filter cylinder 16, trapping solid particles within the screen. The purified liquid is discharged through the outlet pipe 13. When the number of solid particles on the filter screen increases, causing a decrease in the flow rate of the outlet pipe 13, the flow meter 15 sends a signal to the controller 28. The controller 28 then controls the drive motor 25 to rotate, driving the transmission shaft 26 and the spiral scraper 27 to clean the filter screen inside the filter cylinder 16, preventing clogging. Solid particles are carried by the spiral scraper 27 to the collection hopper 18 for later processing. Once the flow rate returns to normal, the drive motor 25 stops working, thus reducing energy consumption during the cleaning process and saving energy.
[0036] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various variations or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these should all be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
