Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of proanthocyanidin processing technology, and in particular to a raw material sterilization device for proanthocyanidin extraction. Background Technology

[0002] Proanthocyanidins are a class of naturally occurring polyphenolic compounds. Their chemical nature consists of plant secondary metabolites composed of flavanone monomers and their polymers. These natural substances are widely found in the seeds, pericarps, and other parts of plants, and are also significantly distributed in pine bark, blueberries, purple sweet potatoes, and other plants. Proanthocyanidins can be converted into anthocyanins under acidic conditions, exhibiting unique chemical activity and biological functional diversity. In the production process of proanthocyanidins, sterilization treatment of raw materials is required to ensure the safety of the produced proanthocyanidins.

[0003] In existing processes for extracting proanthocyanidins, most raw materials are sterilized by introducing high-temperature steam. However, high temperatures can easily decompose and degrade the proanthocyanidins inside the raw materials, damaging their molecular structure and reducing their nutritional value. Furthermore, the steam introduced contains a large amount of water, which can increase the humidity of the material and thus affect the extraction quality of proanthocyanidins.

[0004] Therefore, in response to the problems mentioned above, when sterilizing raw materials by introducing high-temperature water vapor, the high temperature can easily decompose and deactivate the proanthocyanidins inside the raw materials, and the introduced water vapor can easily increase the humidity of the materials, affecting the quality of proanthocyanidin extraction. By setting up an ozone sterilization structure and hot air synergy, efficient sterilization and environmentally friendly treatment can be achieved. During the sterilization and drying process, the modular mesh tray and brush turning structure are combined to ensure the uniformity of sterilization and drying. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the problems that occur during the extraction of proanthocyanidins, high-temperature steam sterilization of raw materials can easily decompose and deactivate the proanthocyanidins, destroying their molecular structure and reducing their nutritional value. Furthermore, the steam introduced contains a large amount of moisture, which can easily increase the humidity of the material and thus affect the quality of proanthocyanidin extraction.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a sterilization device for raw materials for proanthocyanidin extraction, including a sterilization chamber, a sealed door provided on the side of the sterilization chamber, a viewing window provided at the center of the side of the sealed door, a handle welded and fixed to the side of the sealed door, anti-slip support feet welded and fixed to the bottom surface of the sterilization chamber, a hot air blower fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sterilization chamber, and an ozone generator fixedly connected to the top surface of the sterilization chamber.

[0010] Preferably, the side of the support sleeve is provided with a mesh tray, the mesh trays are evenly distributed on the support sleeve and are distributed at equal angles on the outside of the support sleeve. The side of the mesh tray is fixedly connected with a snap connector, the snap connector engages with a snap groove, and the inner wall of the mesh tray is provided with a fixing pin, the fixing pin engages with a limiting hole.

[0011] Preferably, the inner wall of the sterilization chamber is welded and fixed with a fixed support plate, the fixed support plate is evenly distributed inside the sterilization chamber, the fixed support plate is set on the top surface of the mesh tray, and the bottom surface of the fixed support plate is provided with a turning brush.

[0012] Preferably, the output end of the ozone generator is fixedly connected to an ozone transport pipe, which is located on the top surface of the sterilization chamber.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. Ozone is transported through an ozone delivery pipe using an ozone generator. After being split through ozone branch pipes, it is delivered to the sterilization chamber via the ozone outlet pipe to sterilize the raw materials placed inside. A rotating motor drives a rotating shaft to rotate slowly, which in turn rotates the support column, causing the placement mesh tray to rotate. This causes the turning brushes at the bottom of the fixed support plate to passively turn the materials as the placement mesh tray rotates, ensuring that the materials have full contact with ozone and that the sterilization is more thorough.

[0015] 2. After the materials are sterilized, hot air is circulated by the staggered hot air blowers inside the sterilization chamber. This dries the sterilized materials and promotes the decomposition of ozone inside the chamber. This prevents ozone from overflowing and polluting the environment when the materials are removed later. During the drying process, the materials are continuously brushed by turning the brushes to ensure that the materials are dried evenly. Attached Figure Description

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-6This utility model provides an embodiment: a sterilization device for raw materials for proanthocyanidin extraction, including a sterilization chamber 1, a sealing door 2 on the side of the sterilization chamber 1, a viewing window 3 at the center of the side of the sealing door 2, a handle 4 welded and fixed to the side of the sealing door 2, anti-slip support feet 5 welded and fixed to the bottom surface of the sterilization chamber 1, a hot air blower 6 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sterilization chamber 1, and an ozone generator 7 fixedly connected to the top surface of the sterilization chamber 1.

[0025] The sealing door 2 is rotatably connected to the sterilization chamber 1. The anti-slip support feet 5 are equidistantly and staggeredly distributed on the bottom surface of the sterilization chamber 1. The hot air blowers 6 are equidistantly and staggeredly distributed inside the sterilization chamber 1, and the hot air blowers 6 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the inner wall of the sterilization chamber 1. The sealing door 2 forms an airtight space inside the sterilization chamber 1 to prevent ozone from escaping. The viewing window 3 facilitates observation of the sterilization process inside the sterilization chamber 1. The handle 4 enables quick opening and closing of the sealing door 2. The anti-slip support feet 5 ensure the stability of the equipment. The hot air blowers 6 raise the internal temperature of the sterilization chamber 1 to dry the materials while promoting the decomposition of ozone, thus preventing ozone pollution of the environment.

[0026] A rotating motor 101 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the sterilization chamber 1 by bolts. A rotating shaft 102 is fixedly connected to the output end of the rotating motor 101. The top end of the rotating shaft 102 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the sterilization chamber 1. A support sleeve 103 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 102. The rotating shaft 102 is driven to rotate by the rotating motor 101, thereby driving the support sleeve 103 to rotate, which facilitates the turning and flipping of the placed raw materials.

[0027] The support sleeve 103 has a snap-fit ​​groove 104 on its side. The snap-fit ​​grooves 104 are evenly distributed on the support sleeve 103 and are distributed at equal angles on the outer side of the support sleeve 103. The support sleeve 103 has a limit hole 105 on its side. The limit hole 105 is evenly distributed on the support sleeve 103 and is distributed at equal angles on the outer side of the support sleeve 103. The snap-fit ​​grooves 104 and the limit hole 105 facilitate multi-level positioning of the placed net tray 106 and maintain the stability of the placed net tray 106.

[0028] The support sleeve 103 has a mesh tray 106 on its side. The mesh trays 106 are evenly distributed on the support sleeve 103 and are distributed at equal angles on the outside of the support sleeve 103. The mesh trays 106 are fixedly connected to the side of the mesh trays 106. The mesh trays 107 are engaged with the mesh slots 104. The inner wall of the mesh trays 106 is provided with a fixing pin 108. The fixing pin 108 is engaged with the limiting hole 105. By inserting the mesh tray 107 into the mesh slots 104 and then pushing the mesh tray 107 downward, the mesh trays 106 are connected and fixed to the support sleeve 103. Then, the fixing pin 108 is inserted into the limiting hole 105 to keep the mesh trays 106 stable.

[0029] A fixed support plate 201 is welded and fixed to the inner wall of the sterilization chamber 1. The fixed support plates 201 are evenly distributed inside the sterilization chamber 1. The fixed support plates 201 are set on the top surface of the placing mesh tray 106. The bottom surface of the fixed support plate 201 is provided with a turning brush 202. When the rotating motor 101 drives the support sleeve column 103 to rotate through the rotating shaft 102, it drives the placing mesh tray 106 to rotate. This causes the turning brush 202 at the bottom of the fixed support plate 201 to passively turn the material with the rotation of the placing mesh tray 106, ensuring that the material is in full contact with ozone and ensuring that the material is fully dried.

[0030] The output end of the ozone generator 7 is fixedly connected to an ozone transport pipe 701. The ozone transport pipe 701 is located on the top surface of the sterilization chamber 1. An ozone branch pipe 702 is provided on the outside of the ozone transport pipe 701. The ozone branch pipes 702 are evenly distributed and intersected on the ozone transport pipe 701. The ozone branch pipes 702 are connected to the ozone transport pipe 701. An ozone outlet pipe 703 is provided on the outside of the ozone branch pipe 702. The ozone outlet pipes 703 are evenly distributed on the ozone branch pipe 702. The ozone outlet pipes 703 are connected to the ozone branch pipe 702. The ozone generator 7 transports ozone through the ozone transport pipe 701. After being diverted by the ozone branch pipe 702, the ozone is delivered to the sterilization chamber 1 by the ozone outlet pipe 703 to sterilize the raw materials placed inside.

[0031] Working principle: According to Figures 1-3 and Figure 5 As shown, during operation, the raw materials that need to be sterilized and dried after cleaning are laid flat in the placement tray 106. The clip connector 107 is inserted into the clip slot 104, and then the clip connector 107 is pushed down to connect and fix the placement tray 106 to the support sleeve 103. Then, the fixing pin 108 is inserted into the limiting hole 105 to keep the placement tray 106 stable. The above steps are repeated to install and fix multiple placement trays 106 and support sleeves 103.

[0032] according to Figures 2-6As shown, after installation, the sealing door 2 is closed. The ozone generator 7 transports ozone through the ozone transport pipe 701. After being diverted through the ozone branch pipe 702, the ozone is delivered to the sterilization chamber 1 through the ozone outlet pipe 703 to sterilize the raw materials placed inside. The rotating motor 101 drives the rotating shaft 102 to rotate slowly, thereby driving the support sleeve column 103 to rotate, which in turn drives the placement mesh tray 106 to rotate. The turning brush 202 at the bottom of the fixed support plate 201 passively turns the material with the rotation of the placement mesh tray 106, ensuring that the material is in full contact with the ozone and making the material sterilization more thorough.

[0033] according to Figures 1-3 As shown, after the material is sterilized, the hot air circulating airflow is formed by the staggered hot air blowers 6 inside the sterilization chamber 1. This dries the sterilized material and promotes the decomposition of ozone inside the sterilization chamber 1 by heating, thus preventing ozone from overflowing from the device and polluting the environment when the material is removed later.

[0034] The above is the entire working process of the device, and all contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.
