Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an alcohol extraction reactor for processing Tremella fuciformis extract, belonging to the field of reactor technology. Background Technology

[0002] In a broad sense, a reaction vessel is a container where physical or chemical reactions occur. Through structural design and parameter configuration of the container, the heating, evaporation, cooling, and low-to-high-speed mixing functions required by the process can be achieved. Alcohol extraction involves using a certain concentration of ethanol to extract raw materials through percolation or reflux methods, which can extract alkaloids and their salts, glycosides, volatile oils, and organic acids. Although ineffective components such as polysaccharides, proteins, and starches are not easily dissolved, 40%–50% ethanol can extract cardiac glycosides, tannins, anthraquinones and their glycosides, bitter substances, etc., 60%–70% ethanol can extract glycosides, and higher concentrations of ethanol can be used for the extraction of alkaloids, volatile oils, resins, and chlorophyll.

[0003] Publication number CN218131871U mentions an alcohol extraction reactor for processing Tremella fuciformis extract. The reactor's design involves rotating a fixed rod via a fixed motor, which in turn rotates a fixed synchronous pulley and a mounting synchronous pulley. A synchronous belt drives another fixed synchronous pulley and a mounting synchronous pulley, which in turn rotate two threaded rods, causing a fixed plate to move. This fixed plate then moves a connecting rod and a filter cartridge. Simultaneously, a transfer pipe and a transfer pump drain the liquid from the reactor body, facilitating rapid separation of Tremella fuciformis and liquid. However, the filter cartridge is installed inside the equipment, leaving residues of Tremella fuciformis and liquid inside the filter cartridge and reactor after separation. The narrow opening of the reactor makes cleaning difficult, leading to bacterial growth inside and affecting subsequent use. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an alcohol extraction reactor for processing Tremella fuciformis extract to address these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide an alcohol extraction reactor for processing Tremella fuciformis extract, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art. This invention is highly practical. By using a second motor to drive the extrusion cylinder and stirring paddle to change positions, and assisting the mounting base in filtering Tremella fuciformis liquid, after alcohol extraction of Tremella fuciformis extract, it is only necessary to control the electric push rod to lift the extrusion cylinder and stirring paddle to clean the extrusion cylinder, stirring paddle, and filter cylinder. After multiple processing cycles, it can prevent the growth of bacteria inside the filter cylinder.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: an alcohol extraction reactor for processing Tremella fuciformis extract, comprising a support frame and a mounting base, wherein the upper end of the support frame is fixedly connected to the alcohol extraction reactor body, a filter cylinder is slidably connected inside the alcohol extraction reactor body, and a drain pipe is fixedly connected to the lower end of the alcohol extraction reactor body.

[0006] A second motor is fixedly connected inside the mounting base. A wrapping cylinder is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. An electric push rod is fixedly connected inside the wrapping cylinder. A fixed support is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod. Sealing caps are fixedly connected to both ends of the fixed support. A squeezing cylinder is fixedly connected to the lower end of one of the sealing caps. A heavy pressure block is fixedly connected inside the squeezing cylinder. A first motor is fixedly connected inside the other sealing cap. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor. A stirring paddle is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod.

[0007] Furthermore, an electromagnetic switch is provided on the surface of the drain pipe, and an observation window is provided on the surface of the alcohol extraction reactor body.

[0008] Furthermore, two support rods are fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting base, and a drag block is fixedly connected to the upper end of each of the two support rods. Brackets are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the fixed support frame, and the two drag blocks and the two brackets cooperate with each other.

[0009] Furthermore, both ends of the filter cartridge are fixedly connected to retaining seats, and both ends of the alcohol extraction reactor body are fixedly connected to docking seats, with the two docking seats cooperating with the two retaining seats.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the alcohol extraction reactor body is provided with an inverted conical structure.

[0011] Furthermore, both of the sealing caps mate with the mounting base.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model: This utility model provides an alcohol extraction reactor for processing Tremella fuciformis extract. Because this utility model adds a sealing cap, a fixed support frame, an electric push rod, a second motor, a heavy pressure block, an extrusion cylinder, a rotating rod, a first motor, and a stirring paddle, our design improvements and actual use have shown that this device has a reasonable structure and good practicality. The second motor drives the extrusion cylinder and stirring paddle to change positions, assisting the mounting base in filtering Tremella fuciformis liquid. After alcohol extraction of the Tremella fuciformis extract, simply controlling the electric push rod to lift the extrusion cylinder and stirring paddle allows for cleaning of the extrusion cylinder, stirring paddle, and filter cylinder. After multiple processing cycles, it can prevent bacterial growth inside the filter cylinder. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: an alcohol extraction reactor for processing Tremella fuciformis extract, comprising a support frame 2 and a mounting base 1. The upper end of the support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the alcohol extraction reactor body 3. A filter cylinder 17 is slidably connected inside the alcohol extraction reactor body 3. A drain pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the alcohol extraction reactor body 3. A second motor 14 is fixedly connected inside the mounting base 1. A wrapping cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 14. An electric push rod 9 is fixedly connected inside the wrapping cylinder 10. A fixed support frame 8 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 9. Both ends of the fixed support frame 8 are fixed. The device is connected to a sealing cover 5. One of the sealing covers 5 is fixedly connected to a squeezing cylinder 18 at its lower end. A heavy pressure block 16 is fixedly connected inside the squeezing cylinder 18. The other sealing cover 5 is fixedly connected to a first motor 11. The output end of the first motor 11 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 12. The lower end of the rotating rod 12 is fixedly connected to a stirring paddle 13. This design solves the problem that in the original device, the filter cylinder was installed inside the equipment. After separating the tremella and the liquid, the tremella and the liquid would remain in the filter cylinder and the reaction vessel. The opening of the reaction vessel was narrow, making it difficult for workers to clean. This led to the growth of bacteria inside the reaction vessel, which affected subsequent use.

[0022] As the first embodiment of this utility model: an electromagnetic switch 19 is provided on the surface of the drain pipe 15, and an observation window 4 is provided on the surface of the alcohol extraction reactor body 3. The electromagnetic switch 19 installed on the surface of the drain pipe 15 allows the user to control the electromagnetic switch 19 to drain the tremella liquid inside the alcohol extraction reactor body 3. The observation window 4 on the surface of the alcohol extraction reactor body 3 allows the user to observe the condition of the tremella liquid inside the alcohol extraction reactor body 3 from the outside. Two support rods 21 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting base 1. Each of the two support rods 21 is fixedly connected to the upper end of a drag block 22. The front and rear ends of the fixed support frame 8 are fixedly connected to brackets 20. The two drag blocks 22 cooperate with the two brackets 20. The drag blocks 22 installed on the support rods 21 can be used to support the fixed support frame 8, reduce the pressure on the electric push rod 9, and prevent the fixed support frame 8 from breaking due to stress. Both ends of the filter cylinder 17 are fixedly connected to retaining seats 7, and both ends of the alcohol extraction reactor body 3 are fixedly connected to docking seats 6. The two docking seats 6 and the two retaining seats 7 cooperate with each other. The retaining seats 7, installed on the surface of the filter cylinder 17, can limit the space inside the alcohol extraction reactor body 3 by cooperating with the docking seats 6, preventing the liquid from flowing out during the process of the stirring paddle 13 and the extrusion cylinder 18 extruding the silver ear fungus liquid. An inverted conical structure is provided at the bottom of the alcohol extraction reactor body 3 to allow the silver ear fungus liquid inside the reactor body 3 to drain out, preventing the liquid from remaining inside the reactor body 3. Both sealing caps 5 cooperate with the mounting base 1. The sealing caps 5, by covering the surface of the mounting base 1, can prevent the silver ear fungus liquid from flowing out.

[0023] As a second embodiment of this utility model: First, the tremella is introduced into the alcohol extraction reactor body 3. Then, the stirring paddle 13 is moved to the mounting base 1. The first motor 11 drives the stirring paddle 13 to break up the tremella and squeeze it to the filter port of the filter cylinder 17. The electric push rod 9 and the second motor 14 cooperate to drive the extrusion cylinder 18 to reset. The second motor 14 drives the extrusion cylinder 18 to move to the mounting base 1 to squeeze the tremella fragments and squeeze out the water inside the tremella. The user can observe the water content of the tremella in the alcohol extraction reactor body 3 through the observation window 4. When it is necessary to remove it, simply control the electromagnetic switch 19 on the surface of the drain pipe 15 to drain the water from the tremella in the alcohol extraction reactor body 3. After processing the tremella, the extrusion cylinder 18 and the stirring paddle 13 can be moved upward by the electric push rod 9. After the user removes the filter cylinder 17, the surfaces of the filter cylinder 17, the mounting base 1, the stirring paddle 13, and the extrusion cylinder 18 can be cleaned.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model.
