Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of food processing technology, specifically relating to a continuous soybean isoflavone extraction unit. Background Technology

[0002] Soy isoflavones, as an important natural phytoestrogen, have wide applications in health products and pharmaceuticals. Traditional soy isoflavone extraction processes often employ intermittent methods, which are not only inefficient but also suffer from significant bottlenecks in the grinding stage. Specifically, while the rotary blades commonly used in existing technologies can initially grind soybeans, their efficiency is low, especially when facing large-scale production demands, as the grinding speed of the rotary blades cannot meet the requirements of high-efficiency production. Furthermore, insufficient grinding leads to low isoflavone yields in subsequent extraction processes, further limiting overall production efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of continuous soy isoflavone extraction unit. This unit, through optimized grinding device design, such as introducing a more efficient cutting mechanism or adjusting grinding parameters, can significantly improve the grinding speed and fineness of soybeans, thereby increasing isoflavone extraction efficiency and yield to meet the growing market demand for soy isoflavones. Simultaneously, this improvement will also help reduce production costs and promote technological progress and development in the soy isoflavone extraction industry.

[0003] In existing technologies, soybean grinding efficiency is low, mainly because the traditional single-rotor blade design results in slow grinding speed, which cannot meet the needs of large-scale production. Using a single motor-driven single-rotor blade for processing limits its efficiency, affecting not only the overall efficiency of the production line but also reducing the subsequent isoflavone extraction rate due to insufficient grinding. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a continuous soybean isoflavone extraction unit, aiming to solve the problem of low soybean grinding efficiency in existing technologies. This is mainly due to the slow grinding speed caused by the traditional single rotating blade design, which cannot meet the needs of large-scale production. Using a single rotating blade driven by a single motor limits the efficiency of the process, affecting not only the overall efficiency of the production line but also reducing the subsequent isoflavone extraction rate due to insufficient grinding.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A continuous soybean isoflavone extraction unit, comprising:

[0007] Conveyor belt body;

[0008] A connecting block, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt body;

[0009] A pulverizing chamber, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting block;

[0010] The first discharge hole is provided in multiple ways, and all of the first discharge holes are opened on the circumferential surface of the crushing chamber;

[0011] The linkage mechanism includes a rotating blade body, a first gear, a rotating rod, and a linkage assembly. Multiple rotating blade bodies, first gears, and rotating rods are provided. Multiple first gears are rotatably connected to the surface of the grinding chamber. One end of each rotating rod movably passes through one end of the grinding chamber, and one end of each rotating rod is fixedly connected to a separate rotating rod. Multiple rotating blade bodies are fixedly connected to the other ends of the rotating rods. The linkage assembly is located on one side of the grinding chamber.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the linkage component includes a support block, a first motor, a drive rod, and a second gear. The support block is disposed on the ground, the first motor is fixedly connected to the surface of the support block, the drive rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, and the second gear is fixedly connected to the surface of the drive rod, and the second gear meshes with a plurality of first gears.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner wall of the crushing chamber is slidably connected to an adjusting mesh, and the surface of the adjusting mesh is provided with a plurality of second discharge holes.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the number, size, and position of the plurality of first discharge holes and the plurality of second discharge holes are all the same.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a guide shell is fixedly connected to the surface of the crushing chamber.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a discharge groove is provided at the lower end of the guide shell.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a second motor is fixedly connected to the surface of the crushing chamber, the output end of the second motor movably passes through one end of the crushing chamber, and the output end of the second motor is fixedly connected to the surface of the adjusting mesh.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. In this solution, the device synchronously drives multiple rotating blade bodies with a single motor, achieving high-speed rotation of multiple blades, significantly shortening the soybean grinding time and solving the problem of low efficiency in traditional single-blade systems. The uniform distribution and synchronous operation of the multiple blades ensure consistent particle size and reduce the residue of large particles.

[0020] 2. In this solution, the sliding adjustment mesh is driven by a second motor to precisely control the overlap between the first and second discharge holes. This allows for real-time adjustment of the particle size range of the pulverized particles. For example, in processes requiring high extraction rates, the particle size can be adjusted to finer particles to enhance solvent contact area. In pretreatment stages where some large particles need to be retained, grading and screening are achieved by increasing the pore size. This dynamic adjustment capability makes the equipment compatible with multiple extraction methods and reduces solvent waste or incomplete extraction caused by uneven particle size. Simultaneously, the optimized design of the guide shell and discharge trough concentrates the material flow path, preventing blockages and further improving the continuity and stability of the production line while reducing the need for manual intervention.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0030] A continuous soybean isoflavone extraction unit, comprising:

[0031] Conveyor belt body 1;

[0032] Connecting block 2 is fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt body 1;

[0033] The crushing chamber 5 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting block 2;

[0034] The first discharge hole 10 is provided in multiple ways, and the multiple first discharge holes 10 are all opened on the circumferential surface of the crushing chamber 5.

[0035] The linkage mechanism includes a rotating blade body 8, a first gear 12, a rotating rod 14, and a linkage assembly. The rotating blade body 8, the first gear 12, and the rotating rod 14 are provided in multiples. The multiple first gears 12 are rotatably connected to the surface of the crushing chamber 5. One end of the multiple rotating rods 14 movably passes through one end of the crushing chamber 5, and one end of the multiple rotating rods 14 is fixedly connected to the inside of the multiple rotating rods 14. The multiple rotating blade bodies 8 are fixedly connected to the other end of the multiple rotating rods 14. The linkage assembly is located on one side of the crushing chamber 5.

[0036] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, soybeans are conveyed to the inside of the crushing chamber 5 via the conveyor belt body 1. Multiple rotating blade bodies 8 in the linkage mechanism rotate synchronously via the rotating rod 14 and the first gear 12 to crush the soybeans at high speed using multiple blades. The crushed material is discharged through multiple first discharge holes 10 on the circumferential surface of the crushing chamber 5. The simultaneous rotation of multiple blades greatly improves the crushing efficiency, and the uniform distribution of the blades ensures the uniformity of the crushed particles, solving the problems of slow speed and uneven particle size of traditional single blades.

[0037] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-5 The linkage assembly includes a support block 3, a first motor 4, a drive rod 13, and a second gear 15. The support block 3 is set on the ground. The first motor 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support block 3. The drive rod 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 4. The second gear 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the drive rod 13, and the second gear 15 meshes with multiple first gears 12.

[0038] In this embodiment: the first motor 4 drives the second gear 15 on the drive rod 13, which meshes with multiple first gears 12, driving all rotating blade bodies 8 to rotate synchronously.

[0039] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-5 The inner wall of the crushing chamber 5 is slidably connected to an adjusting net 9, and the surface of the adjusting net 9 is provided with multiple second discharge holes 11.

[0040] In this embodiment: After the soybeans are crushed, the particles need to be discharged through the overlapping area of ​​the second discharge hole 11 and the first discharge hole 10 of the adjusting mesh 9. By adjusting the position of the adjusting mesh 9, the overlapping area of ​​the two sets of holes can be controlled, thereby screening materials of different particle sizes. For example, reducing the overlap of the holes can screen finer particles; conversely, it allows coarser particles to pass through, flexibly adapting to different extraction process requirements.

[0041] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-5 The number, size and position of the multiple first discharge holes 10 and the multiple second discharge holes 11 are all the same.

[0042] In this embodiment: when the adjusting mesh 9 slides, the two sets of holes are always precisely aligned to avoid material blockage or leakage caused by hole misalignment. This design ensures that the crushed material can be discharged stably and evenly through the overlapping holes, improving processing efficiency and equipment reliability, and reducing the need for manual intervention.

[0043] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-5 A guide shell 6 is fixedly connected to the surface of the crushing chamber 5.

[0044] In this embodiment, the guide shell 6 encloses the discharge end of the crushing chamber, guiding the crushed material in a concentrated direction. This design optimizes the material flow path, avoids splashing or scattering, ensures that the material smoothly enters the subsequent extraction process, and improves the cleanliness of the production environment and the efficiency of process connection.

[0045] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-5 The lower end of the guide shell 6 is provided with a discharge groove.

[0046] In this embodiment, the discharge trough concentrates the dispersed discharge paths into a single outlet, reducing material residue and the risk of blockage, facilitating efficient collection and processing in subsequent processes, and reducing production losses.

[0047] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-5 A second motor 7 is fixedly connected to the surface of the crushing chamber 5. The output end of the second motor 7 movably passes through one end of the crushing chamber 5 and is fixedly connected to the surface of the adjusting net 9.

[0048] In this embodiment: the second motor 7 drives the adjustment mesh 9 to slide by rotating, and automatically controls the overlap between the second discharge hole 11 and the first discharge hole 10.

[0049] It should be noted that the specific model of 4 and 7 to be used shall be selected by those skilled in the art, and the above-mentioned models of 4 and 7 are all existing technologies, which will not be elaborated upon in this solution.

[0050] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: Soybeans are conveyed to the crushing chamber 5 via the conveyor belt body 1. Multiple rotating blade bodies 8 in the linkage mechanism are driven by the first motor 4 to rotate synchronously at high speed, which greatly improves the crushing efficiency and ensures the uniformity of particles. The crushed material is discharged through the overlapping area of ​​the first discharge hole 10 on the circumferential surface of the crushing chamber 5 and the second discharge hole 11 of the inner wall adjustment mesh 9. The adjustment mesh 9 is driven to slide by the second motor 7, which can precisely control the overlap of the two sets of holes, thereby adjusting the size of the crushed particles to meet different process requirements. At the same time, the crushing chamber is equipped with a guide shell 6 and a discharge trough to optimize the material flow path, concentrate the discharge and reduce the risk of blockage, and realize continuous and stable production. This design solves the problems of low efficiency and uneven particle size of traditional single blades, and has the advantages of automated control and high production capacity, which significantly improves the production efficiency and product quality of soybean isoflavone extraction.
