Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of processing technology for products that are both food and medicine, specifically an extraction device for products that are both food and medicine. Background Technology

[0002] The concept of "food and medicine sharing the same origin" refers to the fact that many foods can be used as both food ingredients and medicinal materials, with no absolute dividing line between them. Examples include ginseng, yam, hawthorn, lily, donkey-hide gelatin, kudzu root, dandelion, honey, orange peel, mint, and raspberry. In addition to being used directly or after simple cooking, their internal active ingredients can also be extracted through industrial production. After mixing and adding, these ingredients can be processed into capsules, tablets, powders, health teas, snacks, functional beverages, and other products. This facilitates the efficient intake of medicinal and nutritional components, or makes them more delicious and convenient for consumption.

[0003] An extraction device for medicinal and edible products, with application number 202321690936.2, includes: a sedimentation chamber, a support frame fixedly connected to the top surface of the sedimentation chamber, an extraction chamber installed inside the support frame, a connecting pipe connected to the bottom surface of the extraction chamber, and a control valve installed inside the connecting pipe; and a stirring assembly located on the top surface of the extraction chamber. This extraction device for medicinal and edible products introduces pulverized raw materials through an inlet. A first motor drives the stirring frame to rotate for mixing and extraction, while a second motor drives a scraper to move, pushing the accumulated residue on the metal filter screen into a residue storage chamber. This reduces the space required for extraction, decreases the frequency of cleaning the sedimentation chamber, and allows the filtered residue to accumulate, facilitating further extraction and recycling, increasing its economic value, and simplifying production operations.

[0004] This technical solution cleans the filter screen by pushing the dregs, but it has the following problems: First, the size of some dregs may be close to the pore size of the filter screen, so pushing the dregs will cause them to be pushed into the filter screen pores and cause blockage; Second, pushing the cleaning will inevitably cause the scraper to come into close contact with the filter screen, so the filter screen will wear out more severely after long-term use. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an extraction device for food and medicine homology products, so as to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an extraction device for medicinal and edible products, comprising a slag removal chamber, a servo motor mounted on the outer surface of the slag removal chamber, and a baffle connected to the output end of the servo motor, with a filter screen installed on one side inside the baffle; a rinsing pipe connected to the upper part of the slag removal chamber; a waste box and a guide channel respectively provided on both sides of the bottom of the slag removal chamber; and a liquid outlet pipe connected to the lower part of the outer surface of the slag removal chamber.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, after extraction, the staff opens the discharge valve. At this time, the conveying pipe transports the liquid and residue to the top of the filter screen. The baffle prevents the liquid and residue from flowing directly into the waste box. Then, the residue is separated from the liquid by the filter screen. The liquid is collected and guided to the outlet pipe through the guide channel and then sent away, while the residue remains on the top of the filter screen. After separation, the output end of the servo motor drives the baffle to rotate counterclockwise by half a turn, causing the baffle and the filter screen to rotate by half a turn. At this time, the residue is placed at the bottom of the filter screen due to the flipping of the filter screen. The residue falls into the waste box by gravity. During this process, clean water such as pure water or distilled water can also be sprayed through the flushing pipe to backwash the filter screen to reduce clogging. After flushing, the servo motor drives the baffle and the filter screen to rotate clockwise by half a turn to reset, ready for the next separation of residue.

[0008] Furthermore, the baffle has a "T" shaped cross-section and is rotatably connected to the slag removal chamber.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the shape of the baffle forms a barrier to prevent the liquid medicine and residue from flowing directly into the waste box. The output of the servo motor drives the baffle to rotate counterclockwise by half a turn, causing the baffle and the filter screen to rotate by half a turn. At this time, the residue is placed at the bottom of the filter screen due to the flipping of the filter screen. The residue falls into the waste box by gravity, and then it can be rinsed. After rinsing, the servo motor drives the baffle and the filter screen to rotate clockwise by half a turn to reset, ready for the next separation of residue.

[0010] Furthermore, the waste box is detached from the slag removal chamber.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the filter screen flips so that the medicine residue is at the bottom of the filter screen, and the medicine residue falls into the waste box by gravity. During subsequent cleaning, the staff only needs to pull out the waste box.

[0012] Furthermore, the guide channel consists of three ramps.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the medicine residue and medicine liquid are separated by a filter screen. At this time, the medicine liquid is collected and guided to the outlet pipe through the guide channel and then sent away, while the medicine residue stays on the top of the filter screen.

[0014] Furthermore, the flushing pipe is arc-shaped, and multiple inclined nozzles are provided at the bottom of the flushing pipe.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the circular shape of the flushing pipe can avoid collision between the baffle and the flushing pipe during the rotation process, while multiple nozzles increase the horizontal water spray area of ​​the flushing pipe, thereby increasing the flushing area.

[0016] Furthermore, multiple flushing pipes are provided, and the multiple flushing pipes are distributed at equal intervals.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution and increasing the number of flushing pipes, the flushing area is further increased, which facilitates backwashing of the filter screen and reduces drug residue.

[0018] Furthermore, an extraction tank is installed on the top of the slag removal chamber, and inlets are connected to both sides of the extraction tank. An electric agitator is installed on the top of the extraction tank, and a discharge valve is installed in the middle of the bottom of the extraction tank.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the medicinal and edible raw materials to be extracted, water, and some excipients are fed into the extraction tank through the feed inlet. Then, the effective components in the raw materials are extracted through the extraction tank. For example, the extraction tank has a built-in electric heating or steam heating system. The effective components in the raw materials are dissolved in the water by heating to obtain a medicinal liquid. During this process, an electric stirrer is used to stir the raw materials and water to make the heating more uniform, or to make the raw materials and excipients mix evenly.

[0020] Furthermore, a conveying pipe is connected between the unloading valve and the slag removal chamber.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, after extraction is completed, the staff opens the unloading valve, at which point the conveying pipe transports the liquid medicine and residue to the top of the filter screen.

[0022] Furthermore, the slag removal chamber, baffle, filter screen, waste box, liquid outlet pipe, flushing pipe and conveying pipe are all made of 316L stainless steel.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the area in contact with the liquid medicine is made entirely of 316L stainless steel, making the structure corrosion resistant and less prone to contamination by the liquid medicine.

[0024] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0025] This invention utilizes a servo motor, baffle, filter screen, waste box, guide channel, and flushing pipe. The delivery pipe transports the liquid medicine and residue to the top of the filter screen. The baffle prevents the liquid medicine and residue from flowing directly into the waste box. The filter screen then separates the residue from the liquid medicine. The liquid medicine is collected by the guide channel and directed to the outlet pipe before being discharged, while the residue remains on top of the filter screen. After separation, the servo motor output drives the baffle to rotate counterclockwise by half a turn, causing the baffle and filter screen to rotate by half a turn. During this rotation, the residue is placed at the bottom of the filter screen and falls into the waste box by gravity. During this process, clean water such as purified water or distilled water can be sprayed through the flushing pipe to backwash the filter screen and reduce clogging. After rinsing, the servo motor drives the baffle and filter screen to rotate clockwise by half a turn to reset, ready for the next residue separation. The structure is simple, causes no wear on the filter screen during cleaning, and allows for backwashing for a more thorough cleaning. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0032] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] An extraction device for a product that is both food and medicine, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the system includes a slag removal chamber 1. A servo motor 2 is mounted on the outer surface of the slag removal chamber 1. A baffle 3 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 2. The baffle 3 has a "T"-shaped cross-section and is rotatably connected to the slag removal chamber 1. A filter screen 4 is installed on one side inside the baffle 3. A flushing pipe 8 is connected to the upper part of the slag removal chamber 1. The flushing pipe 8 is arc-shaped and has multiple inclined nozzles at its bottom. Multiple flushing pipes 8 are provided and are equidistantly distributed. A waste box 5 and a guide channel 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the bottom of the slag removal chamber 1. The waste box 5 is detachably connected to the slag removal chamber 1. The guide channel 6 consists of three slopes. A liquid outlet pipe 7 is connected to the lower part of the outer surface of the slag removal chamber 1. The liquid outlet pipe is blocked by the baffle 3 to prevent the liquid from being discharged. The medicine residue flows directly into the waste box 5, and then the medicine residue is separated from the medicine liquid by the filter screen 4. At this time, the medicine liquid is collected by the guide channel 6 and guided to the outlet pipe 7 and then sent away, while the medicine residue stays on the top of the filter screen 4. After the separation is completed, the output end of the servo motor 2 drives the baffle 3 to rotate counterclockwise by half a turn, so that the baffle 3 and the filter screen 4 rotate by half a turn. At this time, the medicine residue is placed at the bottom of the filter screen 4 due to the flipping of the filter screen 4. The medicine residue falls into the waste box 5 by gravity. During this period, clean water such as pure water or distilled water can also be sprayed out through the flushing pipe 8 to backwash the filter screen 4 to reduce the occurrence of clogging. After the flushing is completed, the servo motor 2 drives the baffle 3 and the filter screen 4 to rotate clockwise by half a turn to reset, ready for the next separation of medicine residue.

[0035] See Figures 1-3 In the above embodiment, an extraction tank 9 is installed on the top of the slag removal chamber 1. The extraction tank 9 is connected to inlets 10 on both sides. An electric stirrer 11 is installed on the top of the extraction tank 9. The medicinal and edible raw materials to be extracted, water, and some excipients are fed into the extraction tank 9 through the inlets 10. Then, the effective components in the raw materials are extracted through the extraction tank 9. For example, the extraction tank 9 has a built-in electric heating or steam heating system. The effective components in the raw materials are dissolved in water by heating to obtain a medicinal liquid. During this process, the electric stirrer 11 is used to stir the raw materials and water to make the heating more uniform, or to make the raw materials and excipients more uniform. A discharge valve 12 is installed in the middle of the bottom of the extraction tank 9. A conveying pipe 13 is connected between the discharge valve 12 and the slag removal chamber 1. After the extraction is completed, the operator opens the discharge valve 12. At this time, the conveying pipe 13 conveys the medicinal liquid and slag to the top of the filter screen 4.

[0036] Example 2:

[0037] Based on the above embodiment one, the following settings are now adopted to avoid contamination.

[0038] See Figures 1-4 In the above embodiments, the slag removal chamber 1, baffle 3, filter screen 4, waste box 5, liquid outlet pipe 7, flushing pipe 8 and conveying pipe 13 are all made of 316L stainless steel. The area in contact with the liquid is made entirely of 316L stainless steel, making the structure corrosion resistant and not easily contaminated with the liquid.

[0039] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the medicinal and edible raw materials to be extracted, water, and some excipients are fed into the extraction tank 9 through the feed inlet 10. Then, the effective components in the raw materials are extracted through the extraction tank 9. For example, the extraction tank 9 has a built-in electric heating or steam heating system. The effective components in the raw materials are dissolved in water by heating to obtain a medicinal liquid. During this process, an electric stirrer 11 is used to stir the raw materials and water to make the heating more uniform, or to make the raw materials and excipients more uniform. This technical solution is only briefly described. The detailed content is the prior art that has been disclosed, so it will not be described in detail.

[0040] After extraction, the staff opens the discharge valve 12. At this time, the conveying pipe 13 transports the liquid medicine and residue to the top of the filter screen 4. The baffle 3 prevents the liquid medicine and residue from flowing directly into the waste box 5. Then, the residue and liquid medicine are separated by the filter screen 4. At this time, the liquid medicine is collected and guided to the outlet pipe 7 through the guide channel 6 and then sent away, while the residue medicine stays on the top of the filter screen 4.

[0041] After separation, the output of servo motor 2 drives baffle 3 to rotate counterclockwise by half a turn, causing baffle 3 and filter screen 4 to rotate by half a turn. At this time, the filter screen 4 flips over, causing the residue to be at the bottom of the filter screen 4. The residue falls into the waste box 5 by gravity. During this period, clean water such as pure water or distilled water can also be sprayed out through the flushing pipe 8 to backwash the filter screen 4 to reduce clogging. After flushing, servo motor 2 drives baffle 3 and filter screen 4 to rotate clockwise by half a turn to reset, ready for the next separation of residue.

[0042] The significance of rinsing with pure water or distilled water is that even if some water is added to the medicinal solution later, it will not cause pollution. The water will evaporate and be discharged during subsequent purification processes such as distillation, which will not affect the efficacy of the medicinal solution.

[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, these specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. The specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions, and variations to the embodiments as needed without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, provided that such modifications, substitutions, and variations are within the scope of the claims of the present invention and are protected by patent law.
