Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical equipment technology, and in particular to a temperature control system for preparing Fritillaria cirrhosa. Background Technology

[0002] The field of pharmaceutical preparation relies heavily on heat transfer, especially in the preparation and extraction of traditional Chinese medicine, where heat is essential in many stages. However, effectively utilizing heat and precisely controlling temperature to meet the specific requirements of pharmaceutical production processes, producing the highest quality medicines, while minimizing operational complexity, presents a significant challenge for many pharmaceutical companies. Currently, in the processing of Fritillaria cirrhosa, heating instability frequently has a severe negative impact on the drug: 1. Overheating severely damages the active ingredients; 2. Low heating fails to achieve effective conversion, and temperature differences often cause quality problems. Furthermore, manual unloading of the drug after processing results in low automation and reduced processing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problems of poor temperature control stability and low processing efficiency in the existing processing of Fritillaria cirrhosa.

[0004] To achieve the objectives of this utility model, the following technical solution is adopted:

[0005] A temperature control system for preparing Fritillaria cirrhosa includes a heating device, a heat exchange device, and a circulating pump. The heating device includes a main body, a frame, a lid opening assembly, and a tilting assembly. The main body is mounted on the frame via the tilting assembly so that the main body can be tilted relative to the frame. The lid opening assembly is connected to the upper cover of the main body to open the upper cover. The main body includes a heating chamber and a jacket disposed around the heating chamber. The jacket has a water inlet and a water outlet. The water inlet is connected to the circulating pump. The heat exchange device includes a water storage chamber and a steam heating pipe disposed within the water storage chamber. The steam heating pipe is equipped with a control valve. The water storage chamber has a water supply port and a water return port. The water supply port is connected to the circulating pump to supply water to the jacket, and the water return port is connected to the water outlet to receive water discharged from the jacket.

[0006] In some embodiments, the cover opening assembly includes a first motor, a connecting wire, and a pulley. The pulley is mounted on a bracket, and the two ends of the connecting wire are connected to the first motor and the cover, respectively. The connecting wire is wound around the pulley.

[0007] In some embodiments, the bracket is disposed above the frame, the first motor is disposed on the frame, the pulley is located above the upper cover, and the connecting line passes around the pulley and is perpendicularly connected to the upper cover.

[0008] In some embodiments, the flipping assembly includes a second motor, a connecting shaft, and a support bearing. The second motor is mounted on a support platform on the side of the frame. The second motor is connected to the side wall of the main body via the connecting shaft, driving the connecting shaft to rotate and thus flipping the main body. The connecting shaft passes through the support bearing.

[0009] In some embodiments, a temperature sensor is provided at the bottom of the main body for detecting the temperature of the heating chamber, and the temperature sensor and the control valve are respectively connected to the controller.

[0010] In some embodiments, the steam heating pipe is provided with a plurality of air outlets, which are arranged around the steam heating pipe.

[0015] The temperature control system for preparing Fritillaria cirrhosa provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0016] This invention employs a method that utilizes precisely temperature-controlled hot water to heat Fritillaria cirrhosa, processing it at the optimal temperature to maximize the protection and retention of its effective components. This avoids the adverse effects of uncontrollable processing temperatures on the processed Fritillaria cirrhosa. The choice of constant-temperature hot water as the heat medium is ingenious, as water itself has a high specific heat capacity and inherent temperature stability. Furthermore, precisely temperature-controlled hot water is particularly advantageous for heating, providing stability and accuracy, minimizing temperature fluctuations, and is significantly superior to direct gas heating in jacketed kettles and electric heating. Simultaneously, the steam condensate directly replenishes the circulating water, eliminating the need for separate water replenishment. The circulating water system also prevents scale buildup over long-term operation, ensuring consistently high heat transfer efficiency. In addition, the tilting and opening components automatically open the lid and dispense the medicine, further improving processing efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a temperature control system for preparing Fritillaria cirrhosa, including a heating device 1, a heat exchange device 2, and a circulating pump 3. The heating device 1 includes a main body 11, a frame 12, a lid opening assembly 13, and a tilting assembly 14. The main body 11 is mounted on the frame 12 via the tilting assembly 14, allowing the main body 11 to tilt relative to the frame 12, thereby allowing the material inside the main body 11 to be poured out. The lid opening assembly 13 is connected to the upper cover 111 of the main body 11 to open the upper cover 111, facilitating the pouring out of the material inside the main body 11. The main body 11 includes a heating chamber 112 and a jacket 113 disposed around the heating chamber 112. The jacket 113 has a water inlet 1131 and a water outlet 1132. The water inlet 1131 is connected to the circulating pump 3, and hot water enters the jacket 113 through the water inlet 1131 via the circulating pump 3. The heat exchange device 2 includes a water storage chamber 21 and a steam heating pipe 22 disposed within the water storage chamber 21. The water storage chamber 21 is used to store hot water, and the steam heating pipe 22 is used to introduce steam, allowing the steam to enter the water storage chamber 21 for heating. A control valve 23 is provided on the steam heating pipe 22 for controlling the steam. The water storage chamber 21 has a water supply port 211 and a water return port 212. The water supply port 211 is connected to the circulation pump 3 to supply water to the interlayer 113, and the water return port 212 is connected to the drain port 1132 to receive water discharged from the interlayer 113.

[0026] Specifically, in the above technical solution, saturated steam enters the water storage chamber 21 through the control valve 23 and the steam heating pipe 22. Figure 1(The direction of the middle arrow indicates the flow path of steam and hot water). After liquefaction, the purified water in the water storage chamber 21 will be heated. When the hot water in the water storage chamber 21 is heated to a certain temperature, it is injected into the jacket 113 of the heating device 1 through the circulation pump 3, so that the medicine in the heating chamber 112 is surrounded by the hot water filling the jacket, and the medicine contained in the heating chamber 112 can be stably heated. As the circulation pump continues to operate, stable heat energy is continuously transferred to the heated medicine through the circulating water. The bottom of the main body 11 is equipped with a temperature sensor 15 for detecting the temperature of the heating chamber 112. The temperature sensor 15 and the control valve 23 are respectively connected to the controller. By collecting the temperature signal through the temperature sensor 15, the temperature can be more accurate in real time. The hot water temperature control is realized by the controller with PID control algorithm and temperature compensation function. The controller controls the opening and closing of the electromagnetic control valve 23, thereby opening and closing the steam, and finally realizing the on and off of the steam, completing the precise control of the hot water temperature. The above technical solution ensures uniform heating of both the center and edges of the heating chamber 112, resulting in a more even temperature distribution of the medicine. In this embodiment, the choice of constant-temperature hot water as the heat medium is ingenious, as water has a high specific heat capacity and inherent temperature stability. Furthermore, precisely temperature-controlled hot water is particularly advantageous for heating, providing stability and accuracy while minimizing temperature fluctuations—significantly superior to direct gas heating of the jacketed kettle and electric heating. Simultaneously, the steam condensate directly replenishes the circulating water, eliminating the need for separate water replenishment. The circulating water system also prevents scale buildup over long-term operation, ensuring consistently high heat transfer efficiency. In addition, the flipping and opening components enable automatic dispensing of the medicine, further improving processing efficiency.

[0027] Furthermore, the lid-opening assembly 13 includes a first motor 131, a connecting line 132, and a pulley 133. The pulley 133 is mounted on a bracket 134. The two ends of the connecting line 132 are connected to the first motor 131 and the upper cover 111, respectively, and the connecting line 132 is wound around the pulley 133. By rotating the first motor 131 forward and backward, the connecting line 132 slides on the pulley 133, which can raise or lower the upper cover 111. When the upper cover 111 is raised, the discharge port is exposed. When the main body is flipped, the medicine is poured out through the discharge port. The bracket 134 is mounted above the frame 12, the first motor 131 is mounted on the frame 12, the pulley 133 is located above the upper cover 111, and the connecting line 132 passes around the pulley 133 and is perpendicularly connected to the upper cover 111. The connecting line 132 can vertically lift the upper cover 111, making it easy to open and close the upper cover 111.

[0028] Furthermore, the flipping assembly 14 includes a second motor 141, a connecting shaft 142, and a support bearing 143. The second motor 141 is mounted on a support platform 16 on the side of the frame 12. The second motor 141 is connected to the side wall of the main body 11 via the connecting shaft 142, driving the connecting shaft 142 to rotate and thus flip the main body 11. The connecting shaft 142 passes through the support bearing 143. The connecting shaft 142 can rotate by rotating the second motor 141 in both directions. The support bearing 143 is located on both sides of the main body 11. The connecting shafts 142 on both sides of the main body are coaxially arranged and connected to the main body 11, with one side of the connecting shaft 142 connected to the second motor 141.

[0029] Furthermore, the steam heating pipe 22 is provided with several air outlets 221, which surround the steam heating pipe 22, allowing steam to be output around the steam heating pipe 22 through the air outlets 221, making the heating more uniform. The steam heating pipe 22 is located in the middle of the water storage chamber 21, and the heat diffuses from the center to the surrounding area. As those skilled in the art will know, multiple steam heating pipes 22 can also be provided. The top of the water storage chamber 21 is provided with an exhaust valve 24 for venting and controlling the pressure. There are multiple drain outlets 1132, which are connected to the drain pipe 17, and the drain pipe 17 is connected to the return water inlet 212, thereby improving the drainage efficiency of the drain outlets. The drain outlets 1132 and the inlet 1131 are respectively located at the top and bottom of the interlayer 113, and the water supply inlet 211 and the return water inlet 212 are respectively located at the top and bottom of the water storage chamber 21, facilitating the circulation of hot water.

[0030] The technical principles of this utility model have been described above in conjunction with specific embodiments. However, it should be noted that these descriptions are merely for explaining the principles of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model in any way. Based on this explanation, other specific embodiments or equivalent substitutions of this utility model that can be conceived by those skilled in the art without creative effort will all fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
