DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0028] With reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the present application provides an embodiment: a mixing device for plant pigment extraction, comprising a frame 1, a support seat 2 is fixedly connected to the top rear end of the frame 1, a motor 4 is fixedly connected to the front end bottom side of the support seat 2, a sleeve 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the motor 4, an extension rod 6 is slidingly connected to the bottom side of the sleeve 5, a sliding rod 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the extension rod 6, a top cover 3 is fixedly connected to the top middle end of the frame 1, a sleeve 7 is fixedly installed at the top end of the top cover 3, the sleeve 7 is connected with the sliding rod 9 through a sliding assembly 8, the sliding rod 9 penetrates through the sleeve 7 at the bottom end and is connected with a fixed rod 13 through a fixed component 11, a paddle 14 is fixedly connected to the outer middle end of the fixed rod 13, a fixed block 15 is fixedly connected to the outer bottom end of the fixed rod 13, a fixed seat 17 is connected with the fixed block 15 through a mounting assembly 16, a scraper 18 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the fixed seat 17, a limit block one 20 is connected with the fixed seat 17 through a connecting assembly 19, and a storage barrel 12 is connected with the frame 1 through a lifting assembly 21.

[0029] Specifically, the support base 2 at the top rear end of the frame 1 provides a stable support foundation for the entire driving and stirring structure, ensuring the stability of key components such as the motor 4 during operation, and avoiding the influence of stirring effect and equipment life due to shaking or displacement. The motor 4 is connected with the extension rod 6 through the sleeve 5, and this design enables the extension rod 6 to slide up and down in the sleeve 5 while the motor 4 provides rotary power. In combination with the sliding assembly 8 composed of the sliding groove 801 and the limiting block 802 between the sleeve 7 and the sliding rod 9, the sliding rod 9 is accurately guided to slide up and down along a specific trajectory. Thus, the sliding rod 9 can drive the fixed rod 13 and the paddle 14 to reciprocate up and down for stirring. In the storage barrel 12, the plant raw materials and the extraction solvent can only form a relatively regular and simple flow field under single stirring mode, and the mixing effect has certain limitations. However, the unique design of the up-and-down reciprocating stirring of the device enables the liquid in the barrel to form a complex turbulent state, greatly increasing the contact frequency and contact area of the plant raw materials and the extraction solvent. Compared with the traditional single-direction stirring, the path of the pigment molecules from the plant raw material cells to the extraction solvent is significantly shortened, and the dissolution speed is greatly improved, so that the dissolution process is more fully completed, the extraction efficiency and the final extraction quality are effectively improved, and the extracted plant pigment has higher purity and better quality.

[0030] The fixed assembly 11 adopts the threaded connection mode of the screw hole 1101 and the fixed bolt 1102. During the equipment assembly stage, the staff only needs to align and screw the fixed bolt 1102 with the screw hole 1101, so as to quickly complete the stable connection of the sliding rod 9 and the fixed rod 13, which is simple to operate and firmly and reliably connected. When the equipment needs to be maintained or damaged parts need to be replaced, the reverse screwing of the fixed bolt 1102 can easily separate the two, greatly reducing the difficulty of installation and disassembly, saving maintenance time and labor cost. The detachable connection of the installation assembly 16 through the installation hole 1601 and the plug bolt 1602, and the detachable connection of the connecting assembly 19 using the insertion slot 1901 and the annular block 1902, and the threaded connection of the annular block 1902 with the outer wall bottom end of the fixed seat 17, bring high flexibility to the entire device. In actual use, for different properties of plant raw materials, such as different texture viscosity and particle size, or different extraction process requirements, the fixed seat 17 and related components can be easily detached and replaced with suitable scraper 18 components. For example, for plant raw materials with high viscosity and easy to adhere to the barrel wall, the scraper 18 with special material or shape can be replaced to enhance the scraping effect; for extraction tasks with extremely high mixing intensity requirements, the fixed seat 17 and the matching components can be replaced to further optimize the stirring and wall scraping effect, thereby improving the adaptability of the device to diversified mixing requirements in all directions.

[0032] Specifically, the supporting plate 2101 of the lifting assembly 21 slides in the inner wall of the frame 1 and is driven by the hydraulic push rod 2102, so that the storage barrel 12 can be conveniently lifted or lowered. When the storage barrel 12 needs to be cleaned, the hydraulic push rod 2102 is retracted, the supporting plate 2101 is lowered, and the storage barrel 12 is moved out of the top cover 3, which is convenient for all-round cleaning. At the same time, the outer wall of the scraper 18 connected to the outer end of the fixing seat 17 is in abutment with the inner wall of the storage barrel 12, and in the stirring process, the scraper 18 can timely scrape the plant raw materials adhered to the inner wall of the storage barrel 12, effectively solving the problem of raw material wall sticking, avoiding raw material waste and affecting the mixing effect, and in cleaning, the scraper 18 can also assist in cleaning the barrel wall, making the cleaning work more convenient and efficient. The feeding port 10 formed in the outer side front end of the top cover 3 facilitates the addition of plant raw materials and extraction solvent, and the inner wall of the top cover 3 is in abutment with the outer wall top end of the storage barrel 12, which ensures the sealing property of the device and reduces solvent evaporation and foreign matter entering from the outside.

[0033] Working principle: when working, the support base 2 at the top rear end of the frame 1 firmly supports the motor 4 and the like, laying a solid foundation for stable operation of the device. The motor 4 operates to drive the extension rod 6 to rotate with the help of the sleeve 5, and the extension rod 6 can slide up and down in the sleeve 5. The sleeve 7 cooperates with the sliding assembly 8 to drive the sliding rod 9, the fixed rod 13 and the paddle 14 to reciprocate up and down. This forms a complex turbulent flow in the storage barrel 12, greatly improves the mixing efficiency of plant raw materials and extraction solvent, and promotes pigment extraction. The fixed assembly 11 stably connects the sliding rod 9 and the fixed rod 13 through the screw hole 1101 and the fixing bolt 1102. The mounting assembly 16 and the connecting assembly 19 allow the fixed seat 17 and the scraper 18 to be flexibly disassembled and replaced according to actual needs, adapting to different working scenarios. The hydraulic push rod 2102 of the lifting assembly 21 drives the supporting plate 2101 to easily realize the lifting of the storage barrel 12, which is convenient for cleaning. The scraper 18 scrapes the raw materials on the barrel wall during stirring to avoid wall hanging, and also assists in cleaning. The feed inlet 10 facilitates the addition of raw materials and solvent, and the top cover 3 fits the top end of the storage barrel 12 to ensure good sealing of the device and ensure smooth pigment extraction.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that: the above only preferred embodiments of the present application, and not for limiting the present application, although the foregoing detailed description of the present application, for the skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or part of the technical features of the equivalent replacement, within the spirit and principles of the present application, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc., should be included within the scope of the present application.
