Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kudzu powder technology, specifically to a purification device for kudzu powder starch precipitation. Background Technology

[0002] Kudzu root powder, a medicinal material rich in various amino acids and trace elements, is widely used. The flavonoids in kudzu root powder are considered excellent for food therapy and medicinal treatment, possessing the effects of relieving muscle tension and fever, promoting fever and relieving rashes, generating fluids and quenching thirst, and raising yang and stopping diarrhea. Humans have used it for thousands of years. Due to its small particle size and large specific surface area, kudzu root powder is better absorbed by the human body. However, current kudzu root powder production processes require multiple steps to obtain the desired finished product. Furthermore, existing equipment for sedimentation and impurity removal has low filtration efficiency.

[0003] For example, CN202121642595.2 discloses "A kudzu powder precipitation and impurity removal device". By starting a servo motor, the output shaft of the servo motor drives the turntable to rotate. The turntable causes the swing rod to rotate around the lower rotating block through the upper rotating block. The swing rod drives the rack plate, which meshes with the rack plate through a sector gear, to move left and right. The left and right movement of the rack plate drives the two moving plates to move left and right. The moving plates drive the filter plate to move left and right, which improves the filtration efficiency. At the same time, the hydraulic rods are started. The two hydraulic rods drive the fixed plate to move up and down, which in turn drives the filter plate to move up and down, further improving the filtration efficiency.

[0004] Existing kudzu powder precipitation and impurity removal equipment cannot fully classify and remove impurities after passing through the hydrocyclone. Therefore, when the kudzu powder undergoes a subsequent precipitation process, impurities will still adhere to the kudzu powder and cannot be separated due to density differences, which indirectly affects the effect of kudzu powder precipitation and impurity removal.

The upper outer side of the rotating rod 37 is fixedly connected to the left end of the centrifugal arc plate 39 via a crossbar 38. The cover plate 2 is installed opposite to the upper inner side of the sedimentation tank 31. The bevel gear 34, bevel gear 35, auxiliary scraping mechanism 36 and rotating rod 37 are vertically installed on the inner side of the sedimentation tank 31 along the same vertical line to facilitate the improvement of starch sedimentation effect. The bevel gear 34 and bevel gear 35 rotate in opposite directions via bevel gear 33, and the auxiliary scraping mechanism 36 rotates in opposite directions with the rotating rod 37 to prevent sticking to the wall and to achieve uniform sedimentation and separation. Four sets of centrifugal arc plates 39 are provided.

[0026] Please see Figure 5 This utility model provides a technical solution for a kudzu starch sedimentation and impurity removal device: a kudzu starch sedimentation and impurity removal device, the auxiliary scraping mechanism 36 includes a movable sleeve rod 361, a spring 362, a movable seat 363, a crossbar 364, and a scraper 365. The lower outer side of the movable sleeve rod 361 is fitted with the spring 362, the inner side of the middle part of the movable seat 363 is slidably engaged with the middle part of the movable sleeve rod 361, the movable seat 363 is fixed to the left end of the scraper 365 through the crossbar 364, the movable sleeve rod 361...
