AI Technical Summary
Traditional Chinese medicine extraction devices cannot apply mechanical extrusion pressure synchronously during the stirring process, resulting in insufficient cell wall rupture of fibrous medicinal materials, and the loss of stirring function of the screw extruder, leading to uneven solvent penetration.
Design a traditional Chinese medicine separation and extraction device that combines a stirring device and a spiral steam pipe. The stirring rod is driven by a motor and pressure is applied simultaneously during the mixing of the medicinal materials and solvent. The medicinal materials are extruded by heating with a spiral steam pipe and a frustum-shaped extrusion seat.
This method enables the simultaneous application of pressure to the medicinal materials during the stirring process, thereby improving the extraction efficiency of the medicinal materials, enhancing the uniformity of solvent mixing, and increasing the yield of medicinal components.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine extraction, and in particular to a device for separating and extracting traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology
[0002] In the modern production of traditional Chinese medicine, the separation and extraction process directly determines the yield and purity of active ingredients. Traditional extraction devices generally adopt a phased operation mode of dynamic stirring extraction and static mechanical extrusion: the stirring tank achieves dynamic mixing of medicinal materials and solvent through the rotation of blades, but mechanical extrusion pressure cannot be applied simultaneously during the extraction process, resulting in insufficient cell wall rupture of fibrous medicinal materials; while the screw extruder can apply linear pressure of 10-20MPa, its closed structure completely loses the stirring function, resulting in uneven solvent penetration. Utility Model Content

The extraction tank has a solvent inlet located on its upper left side, and a steam inlet located below the solvent inlet on its left side. A spiral steam pipe is installed around the inside of the extraction tank. A filter cylinder is installed at the lower inside of the extraction tank. An inclined sliding feed pipe is installed on the upper left side of the extraction tank, allowing direct feeding into the top of the filter cylinder after sliding inwards. A slag discharge cover is installed at the bottom center of the filter cylinder via a hydraulic rod.

The solvent inlet 2 is located on the upper left side of the extraction tank 1, and the steam inlet 3 is located below the solvent inlet 2 on the left side of the extraction tank 1. A spiral steam pipe 4 is installed around the inside of the extraction tank 1, and a filter screen cylinder 5 is installed at the lower inside of the extraction tank 1. The top of the extraction tank 1... An inclined sliding feed pipe 6 is installed on the left side of the extraction tank 1. After the inclined sliding feed pipe 6 slides inward, it can directly feed material into the top of the filter screen cylinder 5. The bottom of the extraction tank 1 is located at the center of the bottom of the filter screen cylinder 5 and a slag discharge cover plate 7 is installed through a hydraulic rod 8. A telescopic motor 9 is installed at the center of the top of the extraction tank 1, and a telescopic rod 10 connected to the telescopic motor 9 is installed inside the extraction tank 1. A frustum-shaped extrusion seat 11 is installed at the bottom of the telescopic rod 10. A motor 12 is installed on the right side of the top of the extraction tank 1. A stirring device 13 is installed inside the extraction tank 1 and is connected to the motor 12. The stirring device 13 also includes a drive gear 14, a hollow rotating shaft 15, a driven gear 16, a connecting rod 17, and a stirring rod 18. The hollow rotating shaft 15 is installed on the top outer ring of the telescopic rod 10. The driven gear 16 is integrally formed on the outer circumference of the top of the hollow rotating shaft 15. The right side of the driven gear 16 meshes with the drive gear 14, and the drive gear 14 is connected to the motor 12. The connecting rods 17 are welded and installed on both the left and right sides of the bottom of the hollow rotating shaft 15. The stirring rods 18 are installed on the bottom outer side of the connecting rods 17, and the stirring rods 18 are located between the inner wall of the extraction tank 1 and the outer side of the filter screen cylinder 5. The device for separating and extracting traditional Chinese medicine also includes a fixing washer 19 and an L-shaped connecting block 20.

[0014] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When adding medicinal materials into the extraction tank 1, the inclined sliding feed pipe 6 is first moved inward, and then the medicinal materials are directly added into the filter cylinder 5 through the inclined sliding feed pipe 6. After the raw materials are added, the inclined sliding feed pipe 6 is pulled outward to prevent affecting the rotation of the stirring device 13. The corresponding solvent is added through the solvent inlet 2, and high-temperature steam is connected through the steam inlet 3. The medicinal materials and solvent in the extraction tank 1 are heated through the spiral steam pipe 4. During the extraction process, the frustum-shaped extrusion seat 11 is driven by the telescopic motor 9 to repeatedly extrude the medicinal materials in the filter cylinder 5. At the same time, the stirring device 13 is driven by the motor 12 to rotate, stir the solvent, and accelerate the mixing.
[0015] The stirring device 13 drives the drive gear 14 to rotate via the motor 12. The drive gear 14 drives the hollow rotating shaft 15 connected to the driven gear 16 to rotate.
