Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of resveratrol crystallization apparatus, and in particular to a crystallization apparatus for resveratrol production. Background Technology

[0002] Resveratrol is a non-flavonoid polyphenolic organic compound and an antitoxin produced by many plants when stimulated. When extracting resveratrol crystals, the solution containing resveratrol needs to be heated and distilled to form crystals. During distillation and crystallization, the solution undergoes three phases: liquid, paste, and crystals. The transition from paste to crystals requires continuous stirring to accelerate water evaporation. However, as water evaporates, water vapor rises from the bottom. Under stirring, crystals form from the bottom of the paste and adhere tightly to the bottom of the container. As crystallization progresses, the crystals continuously occupy space within the container, affecting its thermal conductivity and making cleaning more difficult. Furthermore, the crystals adhering to the bottom of the container hinder removal, causing inconvenience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a crystallization device for resveratrol production to solve the problem that resveratrol crystals easily stick to the inner wall of the tank, causing inconvenience.

[0005] Preferably, the stirring mechanism includes a shaft, a shovel assembly, and a stirring assembly. The shovel assembly and the stirring assembly are detachably connected to the shaft. The shovel assembly fits against the bottom surface inside the tank. There is a gap between the stirring assembly and the shovel assembly.

[0006] Preferably, the shovel assembly includes a first ring and shovel plates, one end of the plurality of shovel plates is connected to the first ring, the shovel plates are provided with an arc-shaped shovel surface and form a cutting edge, the cutting edge facing forward of the rotation direction of the shovel plate.

[0007] Preferably, the stirring assembly includes two sets of second ring sleeves and mounting strips. One end of the plurality of mounting strips is connected to the second ring sleeve. A strip groove is provided on the opposite side of the mounting strips of the two stirring assemblies. A plate with holes is installed between the two stirring assemblies. The two ends of the plate are detachably installed corresponding to the two strip grooves.

[0008] Preferably, a drive mechanism for rotating the drive shaft is provided below the tank body.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the crystallization device for resveratrol production proposed in this utility model adopts the above-mentioned technical solution and achieves the following technical effects:

[0011] During the heating and crystallization process of the solution, the tank in this invention can continuously stir to increase the crystallization rate. This application can also scoop up the crystals at the bottom of the tank, preventing the crystals from sticking to the bottom of the tank and making it easier to remove the crystals.

[0017] Example

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1-2 This utility model proposes a crystallization device for resveratrol production, including a tank 1 for holding a solution, an inlet 11 at the top of the tank 1, an outlet 12 at the bottom of the tank 1, a rotatable stirring mechanism 2 inside the tank 1 that can rotate against the bottom surface inside the tank 1, and a heating mechanism 3 for heating the tank 1 to evaporate water. In this solution, the solution is introduced into the tank 1 and heated by the heating device to evaporate the water in the solution into water vapor. During the heating process, the stirring mechanism 2 can continuously stir the solution in the tank 1 to accelerate the evaporation of water and accelerate the formation of a paste. After the paste is formed, heating continues, and the paste will transform into a solid crystal. Due to the adhesive nature of the crystals, the stirring mechanism 2 will scrape the crystals off along the bottom of the tank 1, which can prevent the crystals from forming on the bottom, thus facilitating the removal and crystallization of the crystals, and also facilitating the subsequent cleaning of the tank 1.

[0019] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The stirring mechanism 2 includes a shaft 21, a shovel assembly 22, and a stirring assembly 23. The shovel assembly 22 and the stirring assembly 23 are detachably connected to the shaft 21. The shovel assembly 22 fits against the bottom surface inside the tank 1. There is a gap between the stirring assembly 23 and the shovel assembly 22. In this solution, the shovel assembly 22 and the stirring assembly 23 are separated to handle the stirring of both paste and solution states. When in solution state, the stirring assembly 23 can accelerate the evaporation of water in the solution. The shovel assembly 22 can handle the situation where crystals form at the bottom and can shovel out the grounded crystals. At the same time, it can agitate the paste mixture to accelerate the evaporation of water and increase the crystallization rate. Furthermore, the shovel assembly 22 is located below the stirring assembly 23. After the solution forms a paste, it needs to be located below the stirring assembly 23 to avoid the stirring assembly 23 being blocked by the paste.

[0020] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2The shovel assembly 22 includes a first ring sleeve 221 and shovel plates 222. One end of the plurality of shovel plates 222 is connected to the first ring sleeve 221. The shovel plates 222 are provided with an arc-shaped shovel surface and form a blade 223. The blade 223 faces forward in the rotation direction of the shovel plate 222. In this solution, the blade 223 scrapes against the bottom of the tank 1, and its blade 223 faces the same direction as the rotation direction of the shovel plate 222. This can scrape off the crystals stuck to the bottom of the tank 1, avoiding the phenomenon that the crystals are too stuck to the tank 1 and are inconvenient to clean. Furthermore, the first ring sleeve 221 is fixed to the shaft 21 by bolts.

[0021] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The stirring assembly 23 includes two sets of second ring sleeves 231 and mounting strips 232. One end of the mounting strips 232 is connected to the second ring sleeves 231. A strip groove 233 is provided on the opposite side of the mounting strips 232 of the two stirring assemblies 23. A plate 234 with holes is installed between the two stirring assemblies 23. The two ends of the plate 234 are detachably installed corresponding to the two strip grooves 233. In this solution, the plate 234 can increase the resistance in the tank 1, thereby increasing the stirring effect of the solution in the device. Its holes can prevent the resistance of the plate 234 from being too large, which could lead to the breakage or bending of the plate 234.

[0022] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 Below the tank body 1, there is a drive mechanism 4 for rotating the drive shaft 21, and the drive mechanism 4 is a motor.

[0023] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 A tubular jacket 13 is provided in the side wall of the tank body 1. The heating mechanism 3 is installed in the jacket 13 and can heat the inside of the tank body 1. A control panel 5 is installed on the outer side wall of the tank body 1. The control panel 5 is electrically connected to the heating mechanism 3. The control panel 5 in this solution is a touch panel. Its panel can control the heat of the heating mechanism 3 and the heating time, which facilitates the crystallization of the solution.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
