[0001] This utility model relates to the field of amylose separation and centrifugation technology, specifically to an amylose separation and centrifugation device. Background Technology

[0002] A centrifugal separator for amylose is a device that separates amylose from a mixture using centrifugal force. This device utilizes the difference in sedimentation velocity of different substances in a centrifugal field and uses the centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation to separate amylose from other components.

[0003] Centrifuges generate a lot of heat during operation. Under normal circumstances, centrifuges dissipate this heat through natural ventilation or heat dissipation structures. This not only easily causes heat pollution in the working environment, but also leads to energy waste. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a centrifugal device for separating amylose to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a centrifugal device for separating amylose, comprising a centrifugal device body, a rotating drum, a mixing tank, and a water guide pipe. The mixing tank is located at the top of the centrifugal device body. A rotating drum is located at the center of the centrifugal device body, and a driven gear is located at the top of the outer side of the rotating drum. A second drive motor is fixed at the top of the centrifugal device body, and a drive gear that meshes with the driven gear is located at the output end of the second drive motor via a roller. A first chamber is located on the outer side of the centrifugal device body, and a first coil is located inside the first chamber. A second chamber is located on the outer side of the mixing tank, and a second coil is located inside the second chamber. The water outlet of the first coil is connected to the water inlet of the second coil via the water guide pipe, and a water pump is located on the water guide pipe.

[0006] Preferably, a stirring rod is provided at the center of the mixing chamber, and a first drive motor is fixed at the center of the top of the mixing chamber, with the output end of the first drive motor connected to the stirring rod.

[0007] Preferably, heating elements are provided on both sides of the mixing chamber, and a temperature sensor is provided at the top of the mixing chamber.

[0008] Preferably, both sides of the bottom of the rotating drum are provided with guides through buffer cylinders, and the bottom end of the inner wall of the centrifugal device body is provided with an annular guide groove that matches the guides.

[0009] Preferably, each of the buffer cylinders is equipped with a damping spring inside, and the damping spring is connected to the guide member.

[0010] Preferably, the first coil and the second coil are respectively wound around the outer wall of the centrifuge body and the mixing tank, and one end of the first coil is provided with a water inlet.

[0011] Preferably, both the first coil and the second coil are made of copper alloy, and the inner walls of both the first coil and the second coil are coated with enamel coating.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom end of the mixing tank is connected to the main body of the centrifuge device through a feed pipe, and a solenoid valve is provided on the feed pipe.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This amylose separation centrifuge device is equipped with a centrifuge body, a rotating drum, a mixing tank, a first chamber, a first coil, a water inlet, a second chamber, a second coil, and a heating element. Starch and water are added to the mixing tank and heated and mixed into a slurry by the heating element. The slurry then enters the rotating drum. When the drum rotates, it generates centrifugal force. Due to the different density of amylose and other components, under the action of centrifugal force, the amylose will be continuously discharged through the through holes on the rotating drum. Cooling water is introduced into the first coil through the water inlet to exchange heat with the heat generated during the operation of the centrifuge body, thus dissipating heat from the centrifuge body. At the same time, the water is heated by the heat and enters the second coil through the water pipe, reducing the energy consumption of subsequent heating in the mixing tank. It not only dissipates heat but also recovers and utilizes the heat, thus achieving both economic and environmental benefits. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a centrifugal device for separating amylose, comprising a centrifugal device body 1, a rotating drum 2, a mixing tank 3 and a water guide pipe 5, wherein the mixing tank 3 is provided at the top of the centrifugal device body 1;

[0023] A stirring rod 12 is provided in the center of the mixing box 3, and a first drive motor 11 is fixed in the center of the top of the mixing box 3. The output end of the first drive motor 11 is connected to the stirring rod 12. Heating elements 10 are provided on both sides of the mixing box 3.

[0024] Starch and water are added to the mixing tank 3 and heated by the heating element 10. At the same time, the first drive motor 11 drives the stirring rod 12 to rotate, mixing the starch and hot water into a slurry. A temperature sensor 13 is installed at the top inside the mixing tank 3 to sense the heating temperature. It can be used in conjunction with the control system to achieve temperature control.

[0025] A rotating drum 2 is provided at the center of the centrifuge body 1, and a driven gear 18 is provided at the top of the outer side of the rotating drum 2. A second drive motor 16 is fixed at the top of the centrifuge body 1, and a drive gear 17 that meshes with the driven gear 18 is provided at the output end of the second drive motor 16 through a roller.

[0026] The bottom of the mixing box 3 is connected to the centrifuge body 1 through the feed pipe 22, and a solenoid valve is provided on the feed pipe 22. The starch slurry enters the rotating drum 2 through the feed pipe 22. The second drive motor 16 drives the drive gear 17 to rotate, so that the driven gear 18 and the rotating drum 2 rotate to generate centrifugal force.

[0027] Because amylose has a different density than other components, under centrifugal force, amylose will be continuously discharged through the through holes on the rotating drum 2 and finally discharged through the discharge pipes on both sides of the bottom of the centrifugal device body 1. Other components with lower density will be discharged through the overflow port at the bottom of the rotating drum 2, and the overflow port is connected to the bottom of the centrifugal device body 1 through a rotary joint.

[0028] Both sides of the bottom of the rotating drum 2 are provided with guides 19 through buffer cylinders 8, and the bottom of the inner wall of the centrifugal device body 1 is provided with an annular guide groove 20 that matches the guides 19.

[0029] Each buffer cylinder 8 is equipped with a damping spring 21, and each damping spring 21 is connected to the guide member 19.

[0030] When the rotating drum 2 rotates, the guide members 19 on both sides of its bottom slide in the annular guide groove 20, making the rotating drum 2 rotate more smoothly. At the same time, the damping spring 21 can absorb the energy of the radial vibration of the rotating drum 2 through elastic deformation, improving the stability of the centrifugal separation operation. Limiting blocks are provided on both sides of one end of the guide member 19, and limiting grooves are opened on both sides inside the buffer cylinder 8, which can limit the movement trajectory of the damping spring 21 and prevent deviation.

[0031] A first chamber 6 is provided on the outside of the centrifuge body 1, and a first coil 7 is provided inside the first chamber 6. A second chamber 4 is provided on the outside of the mixing box 3, and a second coil 14 is provided inside the second chamber 4. The water outlet of the first coil 7 is connected to the water inlet of the second coil 14 through a water guide pipe 5, and a water pump 15 is provided on the water guide pipe 5.

[0032] The first coil 7 and the second coil 14 are respectively wound around the outer walls of the centrifugal device body 1 and the mixing box 3, and one end of the first coil 7 is provided with a water inlet 9.

[0033] Cooling water is introduced into the first coil 7 through the inlet 9 to exchange heat with the heat generated during the operation of the centrifugal device body 1, thereby dissipating heat from the centrifugal device body 1. At the same time, the water is heated by the heat and enters the second coil 14 through the water pipe 5, reducing the energy consumption of subsequent heating in the mixing tank 3. It achieves both heat dissipation and heat recovery and utilization, thus having both economic and environmental benefits.

[0034] The specific models and specifications of the first drive motor 11, the second drive motor 16, the temperature sensor 13, and the heating element 10 need to be determined by selection calculation based on the specifications and parameters of the device. The selection calculation method is existing technology, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0035] Working principle: In this embodiment, starch and water are added to the mixing tank 3 and heated by the heating element 10. Simultaneously, the first drive motor 11 drives the stirring rod 12 to rotate, mixing the starch and hot water into a slurry. This slurry then enters the rotating drum 2 through the feed pipe 22. The second drive motor 16 drives the drive gear 17 to rotate, causing the driven gear 18 and the rotating drum 2 to rotate, generating centrifugal force. Due to the different density of amylose compared to other components, under centrifugal force, the amylose is continuously discharged through the through-holes on the rotating drum 2. Simultaneously, cooling water is introduced into the first coil 7 through the water inlet 9. Inside, the heat generated during the operation of the centrifuge body 1 is exchanged with the heat generated during the operation of the centrifuge body 1, which dissipates heat from the centrifuge body 1. At the same time, the water is heated by the heat and enters the second coil 14 through the water guide pipe 5, which reduces the energy consumption of subsequent heating in the mixing tank 3. While dissipating heat, the heat is also recovered and utilized, which has both economic and environmental benefits. In addition, when the drum 2 rotates, the guide parts 19 on both sides of its bottom slide in the annular guide groove 20, which makes the rotation of the drum 2 more stable. At the same time, the damping spring 21 can absorb the energy of radial vibration of the drum 2 through elastic deformation, which improves the stability of centrifugal separation.
