Description

Technical Field

[0002] Amino acids are the basic building blocks of proteins and have wide applications in many fields such as food, medicine, and feed. With the continuous growth of the market demand for amino acids, the requirements for amino acid production technology and equipment are also increasing. In the process of amino acid production, the pilot plant is a key piece of equipment. The pilot plant is an intermediate test equipment between laboratory small-scale testing and large-scale industrial production. It can simulate the conditions of industrial production and further optimize and verify the production process.

[0003] Existing amino acid production methods have some limitations. Traditional stirring is not perfect, resulting in uneven mixing of materials in the tank, which affects the absorption of nutrients during amino acid fermentation. In addition, a large amount of amino acid solution remains in the residue, and the remaining effective components in the residue cannot be squeezed out, resulting in waste due to the unextracted nutrients in the residue. To address this, we propose a pilot tank for amino acid production. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0021] Please see the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 4A pilot-scale tank for amino acid production includes a mounting plate 1. A mixing assembly 3 is mounted above the mounting plate 1. The mixing assembly 3 includes a pressing box 304 fixedly mounted on the surface of the mounting plate 1. The pressing box 304 is connected to a pressing block 302 via a hydraulic rod 303. The pressing box 304 is connected to an electric slider 313 via a fixed plate 305. The fixed plate 305 is connected to a heating coil 306 via a mixing tank 312. The fixed plate 305 is connected to a stirring blade 308 and a motor 301 via a rotating shaft 311. The mixing tank 312 is connected to a feeding port 310 via a shell 307, and the motor 301 is fixedly mounted on the top of the feeding port 310. The pressing box 304 is connected to a cleaning plate 309 via a multi-joint hinge 314. After the motor 301 is started, it drives the rotating shaft 311 to rotate at high speed through power transmission at the output end, thereby generating a strong stirring force on the stirring blade 308 fixed on its circumferential surface, which fully mixes the materials and accelerates the dissolution and extraction of effective components.

[0022] Two sets of hydraulic rods 303 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the pressing box 304, respectively. Two sets of extrusion blocks 302 are fixedly connected to the output ends of the two sets of hydraulic rods 303, and the bottom of the extrusion blocks 302 is slidably connected to the inner bottom surface of the pressing box 304. The fixed plate 305 is fixedly connected to the upper axis of the pressing box 304. The mixing tank 312 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the fixed plate 305. The electric slider 313 moves inside the fixed plate 305. After the electric slider 313 is opened, the material in the mixing tank 312 will enter the pressing box 304. The hydraulic rods 303 provide strong pressure through the hydraulic system, which drives the extrusion blocks 302 to squeeze the fallen material, which can effectively squeeze out the remaining effective components in the material and improve the extraction rate.

[0023] The outer shell 307 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the mixing tank 312. The heating coil 306 is spirally arranged and fixedly connected to the outer circumferential surface of the mixing tank 312. The lower part of the outer shell 307 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed plate 305. One end of the rotating shaft 311 is rotatably connected to the axis of the fixed plate 305. The top end of the rotating shaft 311 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 301. The stirring blade 308 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 311. The outer shell 307 can prevent the heating coil 306 from being burned when heating. The cleaning plate 309 and the hinge 314 facilitate the cleaning and maintenance of the equipment, and also facilitate the centralized treatment of the pressed amino acid residue.

[0024] Specifically, the motor 301 drives the rotating shaft 311 to rotate, which in turn causes the stirring blades 308 to rotate. This structure enables the materials in the mixing tank 312 to be fully mixed, accelerating the fusion and reaction of various components in the amino acid production process. The heating coil 306 is spirally arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the mixing tank 312, which can uniformly heat the materials in the mixing tank 312. The hydraulic rod 303 pushes the extrusion block 302 to slide in the pressing box 304, which can perform a pressing operation on the materials, effectively squeezing out excess liquid from the materials, realizing solid-liquid separation, facilitating the subsequent extraction and purification of amino acid solutions, and improving the utilization rate of raw materials. The pressing box 304 is connected to the cleaning plate 309 through multiple combination hinges 314. Opening the cleaning plate 309 can easily clean the solid residues remaining inside the pressing box 304, facilitating the daily cleaning and maintenance of the equipment.

[0025] Please see the appendix Figure 1 and appendix Figure 4 - Appendix Figure 5 A support leg 2 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the mounting plate 1. An extraction component 4 is provided below the mounting plate 1. The extraction component 4 includes a pull groove 401. The pull groove 401 is connected to a filter plate 403 through a filter box 408. A sliding groove 404 is provided at the center of the upper axis of the mounting plate 1. The mounting plate 1 is connected to a guide pipe 405 through a collection box 407. A valve 406 is provided inside the guide pipe 405. A pull rod 402 is provided on the front side of the filter box 408. When the amino acid extract flows from the pressing box 304 into the filter box 408, it first passes through the filter plate 403 for preliminary filtration to remove larger particles of impurities. The microporous structure on the filter plate 403 can effectively block impurities, allowing the extract to pass through smoothly.

[0026] The pull-out groove 401 is located at the bottom axis of the pressing box 304. The upper end of the filter box 408 is slidably connected to the inside of the pull-out groove 401. The left and right sides of the filter box 408 are slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove 404. The collection box 407 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1. The guide pipe 405 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the collection box 407. The valve 406 is set on the circumferential surface of one end of the guide pipe 405. The extract is further filtered in the filter box 408. Through the action of multiple layers of filter media, smaller impurities are removed, thereby achieving a high-efficiency filtration effect and greatly improving the purity of the extract.

[0027] Specifically, the filter plate 403 inside the filter box 408 can filter the liquid flowing out of the pressing box 304, effectively intercepting solid impurities in the liquid and making the extracted amino acid solution purer. The filter box 408 is connected to the main body of the equipment through the pull groove 401 and the sliding groove 404, and a pull rod 402 is provided on the front side. The operator can easily pull out the filter box 408 through the pull rod 402 to facilitate cleaning or replacement of the filter plate 403. The valve 406 inside the guide pipe 405 can flexibly control the discharge of liquid in the collection box 407 according to actual production needs. When liquid needs to be discharged for subsequent processing, the valve 406 can be opened; when it is not needed, the valve 406 can be closed to prevent liquid leakage or contamination. The collection box 407 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1 and connected to the guide pipe 405, which can collect the filtered amino acid solution in an orderly manner, providing convenience for subsequent storage, transportation or further processing.

[0028] Working principle: This invention is a pilot-scale tank for amino acid production. First, the required materials are fed into the mixing tank 312 through the feeding port 310. The motor 301 starts, driving the rotating shaft 311 to rotate, causing the stirring blades 308 to rotate and thoroughly mix the materials in the mixing tank 312. Simultaneously, the heating coil 306 evenly heats the materials in the mixing tank 312, providing suitable conditions for the amino acid production reaction. After the reaction is complete, the electric slider 313 opens, and the materials in the mixing tank 312 fall into the pressing chamber 304. At this time, the hydraulic rods 303 on both sides push the extrusion block 302 to slide within the pressing chamber 304. The material is squeezed to expel excess liquid, achieving solid-liquid separation. The liquid flows into the filter box 408 through the pull groove 401 at the bottom axis of the pressing box 304. Solid impurities are filtered out by the filter plate 403, and the filtrate enters the collection box 407. By controlling the valve 406 in the guide pipe 405, the amino acid solution in the collection box 407 can be discharged as needed for subsequent processing. During this period, the cleaning plate 309 can be opened through the multi-link hinge 314 to clean the solid residue in the pressing box 304. Alternatively, the filter box 408 can be pulled out through the pull rod 402 to clean or replace the filter plate 403. At this point, the entire process is complete.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
