Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of berberine production, and particularly to a separation equipment for efficiently extracting berberine sulfate. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the existing extraction process of berberine sulfate, a filtration separation method is often used to separate the berberine sulfate crystals from the reaction solution. However, the existing separation equipment generally has some problems. First, the traditional separation equipment usually adopts a batch operation mode, and can only process a certain amount of liquid each time. After completing the separation of one batch, the equipment must be stopped for discharging, and then new liquid must be added before starting the separation process of the next batch. This operation mode not only reduces the production efficiency, but also increases the downtime of the equipment, affecting the continuity and stability of production.

[0003] Secondly, in the filtration process of the existing separation equipment, the berberine sulfate crystals are easily intercepted by the filter holes of the filtrate basin. However, as the filtration process continues, the intercepted crystals may accumulate and adhere to the inner wall of the filtrate basin, causing the filter holes to be blocked, thereby affecting the filtration effect. This blocking phenomenon not only reduces the separation efficiency, but also may cause excessive wear of the equipment, increase maintenance costs, and even require downtime for cleaning.

[0004] Therefore, how to solve the problems of batch operation and crystal blocking in the separation process of the existing separation equipment, and improve the separation efficiency and continuous operation capability of the equipment, has become a major technical problem in the production process of berberine sulfate.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 A high-efficiency separation device for extracting berberine sulfate includes an assembly cylinder 1, an assembly cover 2, and a filtrate basin 3. An annular collection trough 31 is fixedly connected to the top outer edge of the filtrate basin 3. A connecting sleeve 32 is fixedly connected to the periphery of the annular collection trough 31. The upper and lower ends of the connecting sleeve 32 are respectively sealed and fixedly connected to the outer edges of the assembly cover 2 and the assembly cylinder 1. A support sleeve 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filtrate basin 3. The support sleeve 33 is sealed and fixedly connected to the bottom of the assembly cylinder 1. A drain pipe 11 is connected to the bottom side wall of the assembly cylinder 1. A discharge pipe 34 is connected to the side wall of the connecting sleeve 32. The discharge pipe 34 is in communication with the annular collection trough 31.

[0030] It also includes a discharge assembly and a liquid injection assembly. The discharge assembly includes a rotating bracket 41 and a spiral conveying blade 42 and a discharge plate 43 fixed to the periphery of the rotating bracket 41. The rotating bracket 41 is rotatably mounted on the assembly cover 2 and arranged in the filtrate basin 3. The spiral conveying blade 42 is kept in contact with the inner wall of the filtrate basin 3. The discharge plate 43 is arranged above the spiral conveying blade 42 and is kept in contact with the annular collection trough 31. The liquid injection assembly is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the rotating bracket 41 and extends to the top of the assembly cover 2.

[0031] In the production process of berberine sulfate, the extracted and purified berberine needs to be reacted with sulfuric acid solution (or its salt, such as sodium bisulfate) to form berberine sulfate crystals. The separation equipment provided in this solution is used to separate the solution containing berberine sulfate crystals to obtain berberine sulfate semi-finished product.

[0032] During the separation process, the liquid is first continuously injected into the equipment through the injection component. The injection component can accelerate the injected liquid and accelerate its flow towards the filter basin 3 under the action of centrifugal force. The filter basin 3 is provided with uniformly distributed fine filter holes. The liquid can pass through normally into the assembly cylinder 1, while the berberine sulfate crystals can be intercepted by the small filter holes.

[0033] The filtered liquid entering the assembly cylinder 1 can be continuously discharged through the drain pipe 11 at the bottom. The berberine sulfate crystals intercepted inside the filtrate basin 3 are transported to the annular collection tank 31 above under the continuous operation of the spiral conveyor blade 42, and continuously output from the discharge pipe 34 under the continuous operation of the discharge plate 43. After subsequent washing and drying treatments, the berberine sulfate product is formed from the left and rear.

[0034] The guide plate is arranged at a specific angle away from the diameter direction of the rotating support 41, and in its operating state, it can push the berberine sulfate crystals in the annular collection tank 31 into the discharge pipe 34.

[0035] The discharge assembly can quickly remove berberine sulfate adhering to the inner wall of the filtrate basin 3, preventing the adhering berberine sulfate from clogging the small filter pores and affecting the filtration efficiency.

[0036] Assembly cylinder 1, assembly cover 2, filtrate basin 3, as well as discharge assembly and liquid injection assembly are all made of stainless steel and coated with an anti-corrosion coating on the outer surface to ensure that the equipment itself is not corroded by the liquid, thereby ensuring the quality of the sulfuric acid-berberine separation process.

[0037] The assembly cylinder 1, assembly cover 2, and filtrate basin 3 in the equipment are assembled in a separate manner, which facilitates the independent manufacturing of each component and also facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the equipment.

[0038] To ensure that the assembly cylinder 1 can be stably installed on a horizontal ground and that the components assembled inside it can operate stably, the following technical solution is provided.

[0039] An assembly ring seat 12 is fixedly connected to the outer edge of the bottom of the assembly cylinder 1. Multiple sets of evenly distributed support legs 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the assembly ring seat 12. A clearance port is opened on the assembly ring seat 12, and the drain pipe 11 passes through the clearance port.

[0040] The assembly ring seat 12 and the support leg 13 can provide stable support for the assembly cylinder 1, ensuring the stable installation and operation of the assembly cylinder 1 and the components assembled on and within it.

[0041] The clearance opening on the assembly ring seat 12 ensures that the drain pipe 11 extends normally, ensuring normal discharge of the separated liquid.

[0042] To ensure that the liquid entering the assembly cylinder 1 can be effectively discharged from the drain pipe 11, and to ensure that the berberine sulfate intercepted in the filter basin 3 can be effectively transferred to the annular collection tank 31 above, and to effectively increase the filtration area of ​​the filter basin 3, the following technical solution is provided.

[0043] The bottom of the assembly cylinder 1 is set as a liquid collection trough 14 with a high center and low edge. The side wall of the filter basin 3 is set as an inverted conical structure with a wide top and narrow bottom. The bottom of the filter basin 3 is set as a material collection trough 35 with a high center and low edge. The bottom end of the spiral conveyor blade 42 extends into the material collection trough 35.

[0044] The liquid collection trough 14 ensures that the liquid entering the assembly cylinder 1 is collected in the liquid collection trough 14 and then effectively discharged through the drain pipe 11. The inverted conical structure of the filter basin 3 and the bottom collection trough 35 can effectively increase its filtration surface area, thereby effectively improving the filtration and separation efficiency of the liquid. The collection trough 35 can also effectively collect the intercepted berberine sulfate, which is lifted and transferred to the top annular collection trough 31 by the spiral conveyor blade 42.

[0045] To ensure that the rotating bracket 41 can be stably assembled on the top of the assembly cover 2, to ensure that the liquid injection component can be stably installed in the rotating bracket 41, and to enable the liquid injection component to effectively receive the input liquid and accelerate its processing, the following technical solution is provided.

[0046] A rotating sleeve 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating bracket 41 and rotatably mounted on the assembly cover 2. An assembly cover 21 is fixedly mounted on the assembly cover 2 in a detachable manner, and an injection port 22 is provided at the top of the assembly cover 21.

[0047] The liquid injection assembly includes a liquid injection cylinder 51, an inner acceleration plate 52, and an outer acceleration plate 53. The top end of the liquid injection cylinder 51 is rotatably mounted inside the rotating sleeve 44 and the liquid injection interface 22. The bottom end of the liquid injection cylinder 51 is rotatably mounted at the bottom axis of the filter basin 3. The inner acceleration plate 52 and the outer acceleration plate 53 are respectively fixed to the inner and outer sides of the liquid injection cylinder 51 and are evenly distributed in a ring array. The bottom side wall of the liquid injection cylinder 51 is evenly provided with liquid injection ports 511.

[0048] The rotating sleeve 44 ensures that the rotating bracket 41 is rotatably installed on the assembly cover 2, and ensures that the injection cylinder 51 is rotatably installed inside the rotating sleeve 44. The assembly cover 21 is installed on the assembly cover 2 by bolt fixing. The assembly cover 21 ensures that the injection cylinder 51 is stably installed in a relatively rotating manner, and ensures that the processed liquid can be injected into the injection cylinder 51 through the injection port 22 provided on its top.

[0049] The lower half of the injection cylinder 51 has an inverted conical structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. During the process of conveying the liquid from top to bottom in the injection cylinder 51, the cross-sectional area gradually decreases, which can achieve the initial acceleration of the liquid. The inner acceleration plate 52 is arranged at an angle that deviates from the vertical axis, or it is set as an arc structure. The outer acceleration plate 53 is arranged vertically along the outer wall of the injection cylinder 51. When the injection cylinder 51 drives the inner acceleration plate 52 and the outer acceleration plate 53 fixed on it to operate, it can drive the injected liquid to accelerate. After being accelerated by the inner acceleration plate 52, the liquid enters the filter basin 3 from the bottom injection port 511. Under the further acceleration of the outer acceleration plate 53, it is accelerated to flow towards the outer filter basin 3 by centrifugal force, so as to increase the pressure of the liquid on the filter basin 3, thereby improving the separation efficiency of the liquid.

[0050] To ensure the stable operation of the discharge and injection components and improve the separation and filtration efficiency of berberine sulfate, the following technical solutions are provided.

[0051] It also includes a drive assembly, which includes a drive motor 61, a drive bevel gear 62, an upper transmission bevel gear 63, and a lower transmission bevel gear 64. The upper transmission bevel gear 63 and the lower transmission bevel gear 64 are respectively fixed to the top of the injection cylinder 51 and the rotating sleeve 44. The upper transmission bevel gear 63 and the lower transmission bevel gear 64 are arranged symmetrically. The drive bevel gear 62 is rotatably mounted on the assembly cover 21 and meshes with the upper transmission bevel gear 63 and the lower transmission bevel gear 64. The drive motor 61 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the assembly cover 2 and is poweredly connected to the drive bevel gear 62.

[0052] When the drive motor 61 is working, it can drive the drive bevel gear 62 to operate stably, which in turn drives the upper transmission bevel gear 63 and the lower transmission bevel gear 64 to operate stably. Since the upper transmission bevel gear 63 and the lower transmission bevel gear 64 are arranged in opposite directions, the upper transmission bevel gear 63 and the lower transmission bevel gear 64 always operate in opposite directions, thereby driving the discharge assembly and the liquid injection assembly to operate in opposite directions.

[0053] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0054] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution.
