Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bee pollen processing technology, and in particular, it is a cell wall breaking device for bee pollen. Background Technology

[0002] Bee pollen refers to pollen clusters brought back by bees during nectar collection. After storage and fermentation in the hive, the pollen is formed. "Cell wall breaking" of bee pollen refers to the process of disrupting the cell walls and germination pores of individual bee pollen cells, either as a whole or by breaking only the closure points of the germination pores, to release nutrients within the cell wall for utilization and further processing. Common methods include mechanical cell wall breaking, fermentation cell wall breaking, and enzymatic cell wall breaking. During cell wall breaking, it is often necessary to add ethanol extract or various cell wall breaking enzymes for mixing. Most existing mixing devices have stirring rods that are welded or fixed with bolts, making disassembly and cleaning inconvenient. This leads to the accumulation of a large amount of impurities in the stirring rods and mixing chamber after prolonged use, thus affecting the subsequent mixing effect.

[0003] There is an existing Chinese patent (authorization announcement number CN212955102U) for a bee pollen processing fermentation cell wall breaking device, which "includes an outer box, an inner box, a rotating shaft, a motor, a discharge pipe, a hot air box, a heating rod, a blower, and a digital thermometer. The outer box is fixedly connected to one side of the base, the inner box is disposed inside the outer box, and the rotating shaft is rotatably disposed inside the inner box."

[0004] It is evident that the cited patent document suffers from the problem of making it inconvenient to disassemble and clean the stirring rod. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cell wall breaking device for bee pollen to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cell wall breaking device for bee pollen, comprising a cell wall breaking cylinder, an inner cavity of which is provided with a mixing cylinder, a top cover of which is provided with a cylinder cover, a drive motor mounted on the top surface of the cylinder cover, an output end of which passes through the cylinder cover and is connected to a circular block, a circular groove being formed on the bottom surface of the circular block, a stirring shaft with a stirring rod for mixing bee pollen and ethanol extract being provided in the inner cavity of the circular groove, two connecting boxes being symmetrically installed on the periphery of the circular block, two springs being connected to the inner sidewalls of the two connecting boxes, and a locking block passing through the circular block being connected to the free ends of each pair of springs, and a locking groove being symmetrically formed on the periphery of the stirring shaft for engaging with the two locking blocks, and a drive assembly for moving the locking blocks being provided in the inner cavity of each of the two connecting boxes.

[0007] Preferably, the drive assembly includes two pull ropes, two fixing rods, and a pull plate, with one end of each of the two pull ropes connected and fixed to one side of the locking block.

[0008] Preferably, the two fixing rods are respectively installed on the inner bottom surface of the two connecting boxes, and the two pull ropes are respectively wrapped around one side of the two fixing rods.

[0009] Preferably, the free ends of both pull ropes extend to the outside of the connecting box, and the pull plate is connected and fixed to the two pull ropes at the ends outside the connecting box.

[0010] Preferably, two limiting rods are installed on the inner sidewalls of both connecting boxes, and the two locking blocks are slidably sleeved on the periphery of the two limiting rods respectively.

[0011] Preferably, the mixing cylinder is surrounded by a water-cooling pipe, and both ends of the water-cooling pipe extend to the outside of the wall-breaking cylinder.

[0012] Preferably, two electric push rods are symmetrically installed on the periphery of the blending cylinder via a base plate, and the output ends of the two electric push rods are connected and fixed to the bottom surface of the cylinder cover.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This cell wall breaking device for bee pollen can remove the moving block from the slot and disassemble it by squeezing the spring. Alternatively, the spring can rebound and re-enter the block into the slot, thereby fixing and disassembling the mixing shaft. Compared to existing devices that mix bee pollen and ethanol extract using a mixing rod, this device can disassemble the mixing shaft and mixing rod, facilitating the cleaning of large amounts of impurities inside the stirring rod and mixing cylinder.

[0015] The drive assembly allows for easy movement of the two locking blocks, facilitating the disassembly of the mixing shaft and mixing rod.

[0016] The water-cooling pipes allow external coolant to be supplied to the mixing drum, which is then cooled to prevent the high temperatures during mixing from damaging the active ingredients of the bee pollen. Attached Figure Description

[0024] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0025] Unless otherwise defined, the directions mentioned herein, such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside, are based on the directions shown in the figures of this utility model, and are explained here together.

[0026] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 The device shown includes a cell-wall breaking device for bee pollen, comprising a cell-wall breaking cylinder 1, a mixing cylinder 2 inside the cell-wall breaking cylinder 1, a drain pipe with a solenoid valve connected to the bottom surface of the mixing cylinder 2, and the free end of the drain pipe extending to the bottom of the cell-wall breaking cylinder 1. The top surface of the cell-wall breaking cylinder 1 is provided with a cylinder cover 3. Two electric push rods 17 are symmetrically installed on the periphery of the cell-wall breaking cylinder 1 via a base plate. The output ends of the two electric push rods 17 are connected and fixed to the bottom surface of the cylinder cover 3. By opening the electric push rods 17, the cylinder cover 3 can be moved upward, allowing bee pollen and ethanol extract or various cell-wall breaking enzymes to be added into the mixing cylinder 2. After mixing is completed, the solenoid valve is opened, and the mixture is discharged from the cell-wall breaking cylinder 1 through the drain pipe for collection.

[0028] A drive motor 4 is installed on the top surface of the cylinder cover 3. The output end of the drive motor 4 passes through the cylinder cover 3 and is connected to a round block 5. A round groove 6 is opened on the bottom surface of the round block 5. The inner cavity of the round groove 6 is equipped with a stirring shaft 7 with a stirring rod for mixing bee pollen and ethanol extract. After the bee pollen and ethanol extract or various cell wall breaking enzymes are inside the mixing cylinder, the electric push rod 17 is turned on, which allows the cylinder cover 3 to be locked on the top surface of the cell wall breaking cylinder 1 and the mixing cylinder 2. At this time, the drive motor 4 is turned on, which drives the stirring shaft 7 and the mixing rod to rotate, and mix the bee pollen and ethanol extract or various cell wall breaking enzymes.

[0029] Two connecting boxes 8 are symmetrically installed on the periphery of the circular block 5. Two springs 9 are connected to the inner walls of each connecting box 8. The free ends of each pair of springs 9 are connected to a locking block 10 that passes through the circular block 5. The periphery of the stirring shaft 7 is symmetrically provided with locking grooves 11 that engage with the two locking blocks 10. If there is a large amount of impurities inside the mixing drum 2 and around the stirring shaft 7 and stirring rod, requiring cleaning, the electric push rod 17 is activated, causing the drum cover 3 to move upwards, allowing the stirring shaft 7 to move out of the mixing drum 2. At this time, the two locking blocks 10 are moved in opposite directions, allowing them to move out of the locking grooves 11 and into the connecting box 8, simultaneously compressing the springs 9. The pressure will cause deformation, which will buffer the force and achieve a damping effect. When the locking block 10 is removed from the locking groove 11, the fixing of the stirring shaft 7 can be removed, thereby disassembling the stirring shaft 7. The periphery of the stirring shaft 7 and the stirring rod, as well as the inside of the mixing cylinder 2, can then be cleaned. Conversely, when it is necessary to fix the stirring shaft 7, the stirring shaft 7 is inserted into the circular groove 6, and the position of the locking groove 11 is aligned with the position of the locking block 10. At this time, the locking block 10 is released, and the spring 9 will return the locking block 10 into the locking groove 11, thereby fixing the stirring shaft 7. This fixes the stirring shaft 7 and prevents residual impurities from affecting the mixing of bee pollen and ethanol extract or various cell wall breaking enzymes in the next batch.

[0030] Both connecting boxes 8 have a drive assembly for moving the locking blocks 10 inside. The drive assembly includes two pull ropes 12, two fixing rods 13, and a pull plate 14. One end of each pull rope 12 is connected and fixed to one side of the locking block 10. The two fixing rods 13 are installed on the inner bottom surface of the two connecting boxes 8. The two pull ropes 12 pass around one side of each fixing rod 13 to ensure that the two pull ropes 12 are at a 90-degree right angle. The positions of the pull ropes 12 and the spring 9 are staggered, so that the pull ropes 12 are above the spring 9. The free ends of the two pull ropes 12 extend to the outside of the connecting box 8. The pull plate 14 is connected and fixed to the ends of the two pull ropes 12 on the outside of the connecting box 8. By pulling the pull plate 14, the operator can simultaneously pull the two pull ropes 12, so that the two pull ropes 12 can pull the two locking blocks 10 to move, so that the two locking blocks 10 can be moved out of the slot 11. The fixing of the stirring shaft 7 is removed, so that the operator only needs to pull the pull plate 14 to move the locking blocks 10.

[0031] Two limiting rods 15 are installed on the inner side walls of the two connecting boxes 8. Two locking blocks 10 are slidably sleeved on the periphery of the two limiting rods 15. When the locking block 10 moves, it will move on the periphery of the two limiting rods 15, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the locking block 10 and preventing deviation. One of the limiting rods 15 is located below the pull rope 12 to avoid mutual interference.

[0032] The mixing cylinder 2 is surrounded by a water-cooling pipe 16, with both ends of the water-cooling pipe 16 extending to the outside of the wall-breaking cylinder 1. One end of the water-cooling pipe 16 is connected to a cooling water supply device, which delivers coolant into the water-cooling pipe 16, keeping the mixing cylinder 2, which is surrounded by the water-cooling pipe 16, at a low temperature. This prevents the high temperature during stirring from damaging the active ingredients of the bee pollen. Since the water-cooling pipe 16 is surrounded by the mixing cylinder 2, it extends the time for the cooling water to cool the mixing cylinder 2. The cooled water that has risen in temperature can be discharged from the other end of the water-cooling pipe 16 for treatment and reuse.

[0033] Working principle:

[0034] This cell wall breaking device for bee pollen involves adding the required bee pollen and ethanol extract or various cell wall breaking enzymes into the mixing cylinder 2, and then turning on the electric push rod 17. This allows the cylinder cover 3 to lock onto the top surface of the cell wall breaking cylinder 1 and the mixing cylinder 2. At this time, turning on the drive motor 4 will drive the stirring shaft 7 and the mixing rod to rotate, thus mixing the bee pollen and ethanol extract or various cell wall breaking enzymes. After mixing, if there are a large number of impurities inside the mixing cylinder 2 and around the stirring shaft 7 and the stirring rod, turning on the electric push rod 17 will allow the cylinder cover 3 to... Move the stirring shaft 7 upwards to remove it from the mixing cylinder 2. Then, pull the pull plate 14, which will move the two locking blocks 10 through the two pull ropes 12. This allows the two locking blocks 10 to move in opposite directions and be removed from the locking slot 11, thus removing the fixing of the stirring shaft 7 and disassembling it. This allows for the cleaning of the stirring shaft 7, the stirring rod, and the inside of the mixing cylinder 2, preventing any remaining impurities from affecting the next mixing of bee pollen and ethanol extract or various cell-wall breaking enzymes.
