Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chili production technology, and in particular to a dust removal and chili removal device for chili production. Background Technology

[0002] The chili processing production line produces a dusty working environment with a strong spiciness that affects nearby residents. The spiciness comes from an alkaloid in chili peppers, which is soluble in alcohol, cooking oil, and air, but insoluble in water. The spiciness, lingering in the air, has a significant impact on residents near the factory.

[0003] During processing, the crusher relies on high-pressure fans to transport materials. Each fan is 22 kW, with a pressure of 7000 Pa and an air volume of 8000 m³ / h. Each production enterprise has at least a one-to-three configuration, meaning one coarse crusher and three fine crushers. This results in a total air volume of 4 x 8000 = 32000 m³ / h. Therefore, such a large air volume requires filters with high processing capacity, which is expensive, and a significant amount of chili components is also wasted by being discharged. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a dust removal and desiccant removal device for chili production, the main purpose of which is to reduce the dust generated by crushing chili peppers, while producing oily capsaicin.

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

[0007] The crushing mechanism includes a housing and a crushing roller located inside the housing. The upper end of the housing is provided with a feed inlet and a return air inlet. The feed inlet is connected to a star-shaped feeder.

[0008] The tangential inlet of the cyclone separator is connected to the lower outlet of the housing, the upper outlet of the cyclone separator is connected to the inlet of the exhaust fan, the outlet of the exhaust fan is connected to the wall of the connecting pipe, and one end of the connecting pipe is connected to the return air inlet.

[0009] The recovery unit includes a packing tank, a recovery box, an oil inlet pipe, and a return pipe. The lower end of the packing tank is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe, and the upper end of the packing tank is connected to the exhaust pipe. One end of the oil inlet pipe is connected to the recovery box, and the other end passes through the top wall of the packing tank and is connected to the nozzle. The lower end of the packing tank is connected to one end of the return pipe, and the other end of the return pipe is connected to the recovery box.

[0010] The purpose of this utility model and the technical problems to be solved can be further achieved by the following technical measures.

[0011] Optionally, the recovery unit further includes a filter screen, a plate and frame filter press, and an oil receiving tank. The filter screen is disposed inside the recovery box to divide the recovery box into a left space and a right space. The other end of the oil return pipe is connected to the left space. The left space is connected to the liquid inlet of the plate and frame filter press. The liquid outlet of the plate and frame filter press is connected to the oil receiving tank. The oil receiving tank is connected to the right space. One end of the oil inlet pipe is connected to the right space.

[0012] Optionally, the return oil pipe is provided with a U-shaped pipe section in the middle.

[0013] Optionally, it also includes a pulse dust collector, the inlet of which is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe, and the exhaust port of which is connected to the lower end of the packing tank.

[0014] Optionally, it also includes a shut-off valve and an auger mechanism, wherein the inlet of the shut-off valve is connected to the lower end of the cyclone separator, and the outlet of the shut-off valve is connected to the packaging barrel through the auger mechanism.

[0015] Optionally, the auger mechanism includes a double-helix auger and an inclined discharge auger, the outlet of the air-closing valve is connected to the inlet of the double-helix auger, the outlet of the double-helix auger is connected to the inlet of the inclined discharge auger, and the outlet of the inclined discharge auger corresponds to the packaging drum.

[0016] Optionally, the packing tank includes a first packing tank and a second packing tank. The lower end of the first packing tank is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe, the upper end of the first packing tank is connected to the lower end of the second packing tank, the upper end of the second packing tank is connected to the exhaust pipe, and the lower ends of both the first and second packing tanks are connected to the recovery tank through the oil return pipe.

[0017] Optionally, it may also include an inclined conveyor belt mechanism, the upper output end of which corresponds to the star-shaped feeder.

[0018] By employing the above technical solution, this utility model has at least the following advantages:

[0019] When using this device, first fill the recovery tank with a certain amount of clean oil.

[0020] The chili pepper material to be crushed enters the housing through the star-shaped feeder. Under the action of the crushing roller, the chili pepper material is crushed. Under the suction of the exhaust fan, the crushed chili pepper material enters through the tangential inlet of the cyclone separator. The light components are discharged from the upper outlet of the cyclone separator to the connecting pipe. A portion of the light components flows back to the housing of the crushing mechanism, while the other portion enters the packing tank along the connecting pipe. The oil inlet pipe guides the clean oil to the top of the packing tank and sprays it downward from the nozzle. The light components and clean oil come into contact in opposite directions, mix, and flow back to the recovery tank along the return oil pipe. Through the above settings, the clean oil circulates between the packing tank and the recovery tank, thereby allowing the clean oil to repeatedly absorb the alkaloids in the light components, while clean air is discharged from the packing tank through the exhaust pipe.

[0021] Because the feed inlet of the crushing mechanism is connected to the star feeder, due to the obstruction of the star feeder, when the crushed chili material enters the shell, only a small amount of outside air enters the shell per unit time. Moreover, the airflow is split in the connecting pipe, so the airflow at the other end of the connecting pipe is small. The subsequent filling tank needs to process less light components, and the light components carry out less alkaloids. In addition, the alkaloids in the light components are absorbed by the clear oil, so the spiciness of the exhaust air is very small and will no longer affect nearby residents.

[0022] Moreover, the absorption of alkaloids by the clear oil, forming oily pungent extract in the recycling bin, can also generate certain economic benefits. Attached Figure Description

In the following description, different "embodiments" or "embodiments" do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, specific features, structures, or characteristics in one or more embodiments can be combined in any suitable form.

[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a dust removal and chili removal device for chili production, which includes: a crushing mechanism 1, a cyclone separator 5, and a recycling unit;

[0028] The crushing mechanism 1 includes a housing and a crushing roller located inside the housing. The upper end of the housing is provided with a feed inlet 2 and a return air inlet 3. The feed inlet 2 is connected to a star-shaped feeder 4.

[0029] The tangential inlet of the cyclone separator 5 is connected to the lower outlet of the housing, the upper outlet of the cyclone separator 5 is connected to the inlet of the exhaust fan 6, the outlet of the exhaust fan 6 is connected to the wall of the connecting pipe 7, and one end of the connecting pipe 7 is connected to the return air port 3.

[0030] The recovery unit includes a packing tank 8, a recovery box 9, an oil inlet pipe 10, and an oil return pipe 11. The lower end of the packing tank 8 is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe 7, and the upper end of the packing tank 8 is connected to the exhaust pipe 24. One end of the oil inlet pipe 10 is connected to the recovery box 9, and the other end passes through the top wall of the packing tank 8 and is connected to the nozzle 12. The lower end of the packing tank 8 is connected to one end of the oil return pipe 11, and the other end of the oil return pipe 11 is connected to the recovery box 9.

[0031] The working process of a dust removal and chili removal device for chili production is as follows:

[0032] When using this device, first fill the recovery box 9 with a certain amount of clean oil.

[0033] The chili pepper material to be crushed enters the housing through the star-shaped feeder 4. Under the action of the crushing roller, the chili pepper material is crushed. Under the suction of the exhaust fan 6, the crushed chili pepper material enters through the tangential inlet of the cyclone separator 5. The light components are discharged from the upper outlet of the cyclone separator 5 to the connecting pipe 7. A portion of the light components flows back to the housing of the crushing mechanism 1, and another portion of the light components enters the packing tank 8 along the connecting pipe 7. The oil inlet pipe 10 guides the clean oil to the top of the packing tank 8 and sprays it downward from the nozzle 12. The light components and the clean oil come into contact in opposite directions, mix, and flow back to the recovery tank 9 along the return oil pipe 11. Through the above settings, the clean oil circulates between the packing tank 8 and the recovery tank 9, thereby allowing the clean oil to repeatedly absorb the alkaloids in the light components, while clean air is discharged from the packing tank 8 through the exhaust pipe 24.

[0034] Because the feed inlet 2 of the crushing mechanism 1 is connected to the star feeder 4, due to the obstruction of the star feeder 4, when the crushed chili material enters the shell, only a small amount of outside air enters the shell per unit time, and the airflow is split in the connecting pipe 7. Therefore, the airflow at the other end of the connecting pipe 7 is small, the light components that the subsequent filling tank 8 needs to process are small, the alkaloids carried out by the light components are small, and the alkaloids in the light components are also absorbed by the clear oil, so that the spiciness of the exhaust air is very small and will no longer affect the nearby residents.

[0035] Moreover, the absorption of alkaloids by the clear oil, forming oily pungent essence in the recovery box 9, can also generate certain economic benefits.

[0036] Specifically, it also includes a first gear pump 13, whose pump casing inlet and outlet are connected to the oil inlet pipe 10, and is used to provide power for the flow of clean oil from the recovery tank 9 to the packing tank 8.

[0037] Specifically, the crushing mechanism 1 adopts a single-shaft crusher.

[0038] Specifically, the diameter of one end of the connecting pipe 7 is larger than the diameter of the other end of the connecting pipe 7, so that the airflow velocity at the other end of the connecting pipe 7 is greater when the airflow rate remains unchanged.

[0039] Specifically, the packing tank 8 is equipped with a fixed support, on which stainless steel packing is piled up to increase the contact area during countercurrent mixing.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, the recovery unit further includes a filter screen 14, a plate and frame filter press 15, and an oil receiving tank 16. The filter screen 14 is disposed inside the recovery box 9 to divide the recovery box 9 into a left space and a right space. The other end of the oil return pipe 11 is connected to the left space. The left space is connected to the liquid inlet of the plate and frame filter press 15. The liquid outlet of the plate and frame filter press 15 is connected to the oil receiving tank 16. The oil receiving tank 16 is connected to the right space. One end of the oil inlet pipe 10 is connected to the right space.

[0041] In this embodiment, specifically, the clean oil after mixing with light components flows along the return oil pipe 11 to the left space. The clean oil containing impurities in the left space enters the plate and frame filter press 15. After the filtration action of the plate and frame filter press 15, the clean oil reaches the oil receiving tank 16 from the drain port of the plate and frame filter press 15, and flows back to the right space from the oil receiving tank 16. In this way, the oily pungent essence in the right space is basically free of impurities. As the clean oil circulates between the recovery tank 9 and the packing tank 8, the pungent essence content in the clean oil gradually increases, and the operator can then discharge the clean oil in the right space.

[0042] Specifically, it also includes a second gear pump 17 and a booster pipe 18. One end of the booster pipe 18 is connected to the left space, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the plate and frame filter press 15. The inlet and outlet of the pump casing of the second gear pump 17 are connected to the booster pipe 18 to provide power for the impurity-containing clean oil in the left space to enter the plate and frame filter press 15.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, a U-shaped pipe section 19 is provided in the middle of the return oil pipe 11.

[0044] In this embodiment, specifically, a certain amount of clean oil is left in the UU-shaped pipe section 19 to separate the gas phase space of the packing tank 8 from the gas phase space of the recovery box 9, so that all the clean air in the packing tank 8 is discharged through the exhaust pipe 24.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, a pulse dust collector 20 is also included. The inlet of the pulse dust collector 20 is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe 7, and the exhaust port of the pulse dust collector 20 is connected to the lower end of the packing tank 8.

[0046] In this embodiment, specifically, the light component discharged from the upper outlet of the cyclone separator 5 is discharged to the pulse dust collector 20 through the other end of the connecting pipe 7. However, the light component contains a certain amount of large particulate dust, and the pulse dust collector 20 can intercept the large particulate dust to prevent it from mixing with the clear oil and improve the taste of the oily spiciness essence.

[0047] In a specific embodiment, it also includes a shut-off valve 21 and an auger mechanism. The inlet of the shut-off valve 21 is connected to the lower end of the cyclone separator 5, and the outlet of the shut-off valve 21 is connected to the packaging barrel through the auger mechanism.

[0048] In this embodiment, specifically, the air-closing valve 21 prevents outside air from entering the cyclone separator 5 through the lower outlet of the cyclone separator 5, thereby ensuring stable cyclone separation within the cyclone separator 5. The flow rate of the heavy component chili powder discharged from the air-closing valve 21 is stable, thus enabling the auger mechanism to stably transport the chili powder to the packaging barrel.

[0049] In a specific embodiment, the auger mechanism includes a double-helix auger 22 and an inclined discharge auger 23. The outlet of the air-closing valve 21 is connected to the inlet of the double-helix auger 22, the outlet of the double-helix auger 22 is connected to the inlet of the inclined discharge auger 23, and the outlet of the inclined discharge auger 23 corresponds to the packaging barrel.

[0050] In this embodiment, the chili powder discharged from the air-closing valve 21 to the double-spiral auger 22 is horizontally conveyed to the outlet under the action of the double-spiral rod, then enters the lower inlet of the inclined discharge auger 23, and is then discharged to the packaging barrel through the upper outlet of the inclined discharge auger 23.

[0051] In a specific embodiment, the packing tank 8 includes a first packing tank 801 and a second packing tank 802. The lower end of the first packing tank 801 is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe 7, the upper end of the first packing tank 801 is connected to the lower end of the second packing tank 802, the upper end of the second packing tank 802 is connected to the exhaust pipe 24, and the lower ends of both the first packing tank 801 and the second packing tank 802 are connected to the recovery box 9 through the oil return pipe 11.

[0052] In this embodiment, specifically, in the first packing tank 801, the light component comes into countercurrent contact with the clear oil for the first time; in the second packing tank 802, the light component comes into countercurrent contact with the clear oil for the second time, so that the alkaloids in the airflow are fully sprayed and washed, and the spiciness in the air discharged from the exhaust pipe 24 is further reduced.

[0053] In a specific embodiment, it also includes an inclined conveyor belt mechanism 25, the upper output end of which corresponds to the star-shaped feeder 4.

[0054] In this embodiment, specifically, the inlet of the star-shaped feeder 4 is equipped with a hopper, and the upper output end of the inclined conveyor belt mechanism 25 corresponds to the hopper. The operator can pour the chili material into the lower input end of the inclined conveyor belt mechanism 25, and the inclined conveyor belt mechanism 25 will transport the chili material to the hopper. By setting the inclined conveyor belt mechanism 25, the operator is prevented from climbing to pour the chili material into the hopper.

[0055] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
