Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of plant separation technology, and in particular to a device for separating medicinal plant components. Background Technology

[0002] In the pharmaceutical and health product fields, plant medicinal ingredients have attracted much attention due to their unique biological activity and pharmacological effects. In order to obtain these precious medicinal ingredients, a series of treatments and extractions of plants are usually required. The extraction process usually includes steps such as washing, crushing, soaking, extraction separation and concentration of plants. These steps are designed to destroy the plant cell structure so that the medicinal ingredients can be released and dissolved in the solvent, thereby extracting the fragrance containing the medicinal ingredients.

[0003] In related technologies, in order to extract medicinal components from plants, the plants are usually crushed first in order to separate the pulp from the juice, and then extract the medicinal components. However, existing separation devices often cannot completely and effectively separate the pulp from the juice, resulting in the extracted juice containing more impurities, which affects the purity and extraction efficiency of the subsequent medicinal components, and therefore needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problem of effectively separating fruit pulp from juice, this application provides a plant medicinal component separation device.

[0005] The plant medicinal component separation device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A plant medicinal component separation device includes a frame with a separation box mounted on the frame. Two crushing rollers are installed inside the separation box, both rotatably connected to the opening of the separation box. A separation mechanism for separating pulp and juice is located at the bottom of the separation box. The separation mechanism includes a pulp storage box, a separation mesh, a guide pipe, and a juice storage cylinder. The pulp storage box is connected to the bottom of the separation box. The separation mesh is connected inside the pulp storage box and consists of multiple layers with the mesh size increasing sequentially away from the separation box. The juice storage cylinder is mounted on the frame. The two ends of the guide pipe are connected to the pulp storage box and the juice storage cylinder, respectively, and the guide pipe is inclined from the pulp storage box towards the juice storage cylinder.

[0007] Existing separation devices often fail to completely and effectively separate fruit pulp from juice, resulting in extracted juice containing numerous impurities, affecting the purity and extraction efficiency of subsequent medicinal components. The proposed solution employs a frame, with a separation chamber mounted on it. Two pulverizing rollers rotate within the separation chamber, and a separation mechanism located at the bottom. This mechanism includes a pulp storage tank, a separation mesh, a guide pipe, and a juice storage cylinder. When separating plant pulp and juice, the plant material is fed into the opening of the separation chamber. The pulverizing rollers begin to work, pulverizing the plant material into smaller pulp particles and juice. The pulverized particles fall into the pulp storage tank at the bottom of the separation chamber. The larger pulp particles remain on the coarser mesh, while the juice continues to flow downwards, encountering even finer mesh. The mesh layer further separates more fruit pulp particles, while the juice gradually permeates downwards through all the mesh openings of the mesh, eventually flowing into the guide pipe. The juice then flows smoothly into the juice storage cylinder, where the pure juice is collected for subsequent extraction of medicinal components or other processing. Through the use of crushing rollers and separation mechanisms, the pulp and juice can be quickly and thoroughly separated, reducing the problem of excessive impurities in the juice found in traditional separation methods. The application of multi-layer separation meshes allows the pulp particles to be separated step by step during the juice's flow, resulting in highly pure juice. This provides high-quality raw materials for the extraction of medicinal components, significantly improving the extraction efficiency and purity. Furthermore, the overall structure of the device is rationally designed, easy to operate and maintain, and exhibits high stability.

[0008] Optionally, the pulp storage box is detachably connected to the bottom of the separation box, one end of the guide pipe is fixedly connected to the pulp storage box, and the other end of the guide pipe is provided with a flange for connecting to the juice storage cylinder.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the pulp storage box is detachably connected to the bottom of the separation box, and the guide pipe is installed on the juice storage cylinder through a flange. With the detachable pulp storage box and the flange, the detachable design of the pulp storage box can be easily removed from the bottom of the separation box, which facilitates thorough cleaning and maintenance and helps prevent the accumulation of residue inside the device. At the same time, the flange simplifies disassembly and assembly, reducing the difficulty of operation and time cost.

[0010] Optionally, the top of the juice storage cylinder is provided with a connecting joint for connecting to a guide pipe, the flange is connected to the connecting joint, and the connecting joint is provided with a positioning part for positioning the guide pipe.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting joint is installed on the top of the juice storage cylinder, and the positioning part is integrally formed on the connecting joint. With the setting of the connecting joint and the positioning part, the connecting joint acts as a bridge between the flow guide pipe and the juice storage cylinder, ensuring a stable connection between the two. This not only improves the reliability of the connection but also reduces the risk of juice loss and contamination caused by loose connection or leakage. At the same time, the positioning part provides an accurate positioning reference for the flow guide pipe, ensuring the correct installation of the flow guide roller and the connecting joint, and simplifying the installation process.

[0012] Optionally, the frame is provided with a support plate for supporting the juice storage cylinder, and the support plate is provided with a mounting ring, with the bottom of the juice storage cylinder arranged inside the mounting ring.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the support plate is installed on the frame, and the juice storage cylinder is placed in the mounting ring of the support plate. With the setting of the support plate and the mounting ring, the support plate, as the main support structure of the juice storage cylinder, can withstand its weight and possible vibration or impact force, ensuring the stability and safety of the juice storage cylinder during the separation process. At the same time, the mounting ring provides an accurate installation reference for the juice storage cylinder, ensuring the stability of the juice storage cylinder installation.

[0014] Optionally, a feed cone is provided at the feed inlet of the separation box, and the feed cone is connected to the feed inlet of the separation box.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the feeding cone is installed at the feed inlet of the separation box. The feeding cone guides the plant material smoothly into the separation box, which helps the material to slide down naturally under the action of gravity, reducing the accumulation and blockage of material at the feed inlet, thereby improving the separation efficiency.

[0016] Optionally, the separation box is provided with two auxiliary crushing plates, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the two crushing rollers, and the auxiliary crushing plates are staggered with the corresponding crushing rollers.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, two auxiliary crushing plates are installed inside the separation box. The staggered arrangement of the auxiliary crushing plates and the crushing rollers allows the material to be subjected to crushing forces from multiple directions when passing through the separation box. This not only improves the crushing efficiency but also makes the particle size of the crushed material more uniform, which helps to improve the quality of subsequent separation and extraction.

[0018] Optionally, the separation box is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the crushing rollers. The drive mechanism includes a crushing motor and two transmission gears. The two transmission gears are respectively connected to the ends of the two crushing rollers and mesh with each other. The crushing motor is arranged on the frame, and the output end of the crushing motor is connected to one of its transmission gears.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the drive mechanism is installed outside the separation box. The drive mechanism includes a crushing motor and two transmission gears. When separating plant pulp and juice, the crushing motor is started. The crushing motor drives the two crushing rollers to rotate through the transmission gears. The crushing rollers squeeze and shear the material, crushing it into smaller particles. Through the setting of the crushing motor and the two transmission gears, the rotation speed of the crushing rollers can be precisely controlled to meet the crushing needs of different materials. The efficient drive method improves the crushing efficiency, shortens the separation time, and ensures the stability and coordination of the crushing rollers during rotation.

[0020] Optionally, a coupling is provided between the crushing motor and the crushing roller of the corresponding transmission gear for connection.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, a coupling is installed between the crushing motor and the corresponding transmission gear. With the setting of the coupling, the coupling, as a key component connecting the crushing motor and the transmission gear (and thus driving the crushing roller), has the main function of transmitting the rotational power of the motor to the transmission gear to ensure that the crushing roller can rotate normally.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0023] By incorporating crushing rollers and separation mechanisms, the pulp and juice can be separated quickly and thoroughly, reducing the problem of excessive impurities in the juice that occurs in traditional separation methods. The application of multi-layer separation mesh allows the pulp particles to be separated step by step as the juice flows through, resulting in high-purity juice. This provides high-quality raw materials for the extraction of medicinal components, significantly improving the extraction efficiency and purity of medicinal components. Furthermore, the device has a reasonable overall structural design, is easy to operate and maintain, and has high stability.

[0024] By using the connecting joint and positioning part, the connecting joint acts as a bridge between the flow guide pipe and the juice storage cylinder, ensuring a stable connection between the two. This not only improves the reliability of the connection but also reduces the risk of juice loss and contamination due to loose connections or leaks. At the same time, the positioning part provides an accurate positioning reference for the flow guide pipe, ensuring the correct installation of the flow guide roller and the connecting joint, and simplifying the installation process.

[0025] By setting up two auxiliary crushing plates and staggering the arrangement of the auxiliary crushing plates and crushing rollers, the material can be subjected to crushing forces from multiple directions when passing through the separation box. This not only improves the crushing efficiency but also makes the particle size of the crushed material more uniform, which helps to improve the quality of subsequent separation and extraction.

[0030] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0031] This application discloses a device for separating medicinal plant components. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The plant medicinal component separation device includes a frame 1, on which a separation box 2 is installed. In this embodiment, the separation box 2 has an inlet and an outlet, which are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the separation box 2.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 A feeding cone 8 is installed at the inlet of the separation box 2. The feeding cone 8 is connected to the inlet of the separation box 2. The feeding cone 8 can guide the plant material into the separation box 2 smoothly, which helps the material to slide down naturally under the action of gravity, reducing the accumulation and blockage of material at the inlet, thereby improving the separation efficiency.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Two crushing rollers 3 are rotatably installed inside the separation box 2. The two crushing rollers 3 are arranged opposite each other and in an alternating manner. A crushing area for plant materials is formed between the two crushing rollers 3. At the same time, two auxiliary crushing plates 9 are installed inside the separation box 2. The two auxiliary crushing plates 9 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the two crushing rollers 3. The auxiliary crushing plates 9 are arranged in an alternating manner with the corresponding crushing rollers 3, so that the material can be crushed from multiple directions when passing through the separation box 2. This not only improves the crushing efficiency, but also makes the particle size of the crushed material more uniform, which helps to improve the quality of subsequent separation and extraction.

[0034] Reference Figure 1A drive mechanism 10 is installed outside the separation box 2. In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 10 is used to drive the two crushing rollers 3 to rotate in opposite directions. The drive mechanism 10 includes a crushing motor 101 and two transmission gears 102. The ends of the two crushing rollers 3 pass through the separation box 2 and extend to the outside. The two transmission gears 102 correspond to the two crushing rollers 3. The two transmission gears 102 are respectively sleeved and fixed on the ends of the two crushing rollers 3. The two transmission gears 102 mesh with each other. The crushing motor 101 is installed on the frame 1. The crushing motor 101 can realize forward and reverse rotation. A coupling 11 is installed between the output end of the crushing motor 101 and the corresponding transmission gear 102. The coupling 11 is a key component connecting the crushing motor 101 and the transmission gear 102 (and thus driving the crushing rollers 3). Its main function is to transmit the rotational power of the motor to the transmission gear 102 to ensure that the crushing rollers 3 can rotate normally.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom of the separation box 2 is equipped with a separation mechanism 4. In this embodiment, the separation mechanism 4 is used to separate the pulp and juice. The separation mechanism 4 includes a pulp storage box 41, a separation mesh 42, a guide pipe 43, and a juice storage cylinder 44. The pulp storage box 41 is installed at the bottom of the separation box 2 and is connected to the discharge port of the separation box 2. The pulp storage box 41 is used to store the crushed pulp. The pulp storage box 41 is detachably connected to the bottom of the separation box 2. The pulp storage box 41 and the separation box 2 can be connected by bolts or flanges 5.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 The separating mesh 42 is detachably installed inside the pulp storage box 41. In this embodiment, there are multiple sets of separating mesh 42. The multiple sets of separating mesh 42 are installed sequentially at intervals along the height direction of the pulp storage box 41. Several through holes are opened through the separating mesh 42. The mesh size of the separating mesh 42 increases sequentially in the direction away from the separating box 2. The application of multiple separating mesh 42 enables the pulp particles to be separated step by step during the flow of juice, and the final juice has high purity.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 A support plate 7 is installed on the frame 1, and a mounting ring 71 is installed on the support plate 7. The juice storage cylinder 44 is placed inside the mounting ring 71. The juice storage cylinder 44 is used to store the separated juice. A connecting joint 6 is installed on the top of the juice storage cylinder 44, and the connecting joint 6 is connected to the inside of the juice storage cylinder 44.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3One end of the flow guide pipe 43 is fixed to the bottom of the pulp storage box 41, and the other end of the flow guide pipe 43 is connected to the connecting joint 6. In this embodiment, a flange 5 is installed between the flow guide pipe 43 and the connecting joint 6. At the same time, a positioning part 61 is integrally formed on the connecting joint 6. The positioning part 61 provides an accurate positioning reference for the flow guide pipe 43, ensuring the correct installation of the flow guide roller and the connecting joint 6, and simplifying the installation process.

[0039] The implementation principle of the plant medicinal component separation device in this application embodiment is as follows: When separating plant pulp and juice, the plant material is fed into the opening of the separation box 2, and the crushing roller 3 starts working, crushing the plant material into smaller pulp particles and juice. The crushed particles fall into the pulp temporary storage box 41 at the bottom of the separation box 2. Due to their larger size, the pulp particles are left on the coarser mesh layer. The juice continues to flow downwards, where it encounters a finer mesh layer, further separating more pulp particles. The juice passes through the mesh of all the meshes, gradually seeping downwards, and finally flows into the guide pipe 43. The juice flows smoothly through the guide pipe 43. The juice flows into the juice storage cylinder 44, where the pure juice is collected and prepared for subsequent extraction of medicinal components or other processing. Through the crushing roller 3, separation mechanism 4, etc., the pulp and juice can be separated quickly and thoroughly, reducing the problem of excessive impurities in the juice in traditional separation methods. The application of multi-layer separation mesh 42 allows the pulp particles to be separated step by step during the flow of the juice, resulting in high purity juice. This provides high-quality raw materials for the extraction of medicinal components, significantly improving the extraction efficiency and purity of medicinal components. Moreover, the overall structure of the device is reasonably designed, easy to operate and maintain, and has high stability.

[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
