Detailed Implementation

[0018] This application discloses a component for rapidly separating vilanterol intermediates. The rotation of the stirring rod 63 drives the liquid entering through the two inlets 40 to mix, and then enters the rotating drum 31 for extraction, thereby improving the extraction efficiency. The rotation of the cleaning brush 65 at the bottom of the filter plate 70 cleans the precipitates attached to the filter plate 70, preventing the filter plate 70 from becoming clogged and affecting the extraction efficiency.

[0019] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides a component for rapidly separating vilanterol intermediates, including an extractor 10. The extractor 10 has an internal housing 20. An extraction assembly 30 for rotary extraction is located at the top of the housing 20. A filter plate 70 is connected to the inlet of the extraction assembly 30 at the bottom of the housing 20 via a connecting rod. The extraction assembly 30 includes a rotating drum 31, a drive motor 32, a baffle 33, and a turbine disk 34. The rotating drum 31 is rotatably connected to the top of the housing 20. The drive motor 32 is mounted on the top of the extractor 10, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the rotating drum 31. The bottom of the extractor 10 has two liquid inlets 40, which communicate with the bottom of the housing 20. The top of the extractor 10 has two liquid outlets 50, one of which is connected to... The heavy phase chamber at the top of the extractor 10 is connected to the light phase chamber in the middle of the extractor 10. A light phase weir is provided in the middle of the outer shell 20, and a heavy phase weir is provided at the top of the outer shell 20. The two phase liquids are input into the bottom of the outer shell 20 through two inlets 40. After being filtered by the filter plate 70, they are input into the drum 31 for extraction. The drum 31 is rotated by the drive motor 32. The extracted heavy phase liquid flows from the heavy phase weir into the heavy phase chamber and then flows out from one outlet 50. The light phase liquid flows from the light phase weir into the light phase chamber and then flows out from the other outlet 50, completing the extraction. The precipitate in the two phase liquids is filtered by the filter plate 70 at the bottom of the drum 31 to prevent the precipitate from entering the drum 31 and affecting the extraction and separation efficiency.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The bottom of the outer casing 20 is provided with a cleaning assembly 60 for cleaning the filter plate 70. The cleaning assembly 60 includes a stirring element, a connecting seat 64, a cleaning brush 65, and a cleaning tube 66. The stirring element is located at the bottom of the outer casing 20 and drives the connecting seat 64 to rotate and mix the two phase liquids. The stirring element includes a motor 61, a rotating shaft 62, and a stirring rod 63. The motor 61 is installed at the bottom of the extractor 10, the rotating shaft 62 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the outer casing 20, and the output shaft of the motor 61 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 62. The stirring rod 63 is located outside the rotating shaft 62. The rotating shaft 62 and the stirring rod 63 are connected together. The rotation direction is opposite to that of the drum 31. The baffle 33 is located in the middle of the drum 31 and blocks the mixed liquid at the bottom of the outer shell 20. The turbine disk 34 is located at the bottom of the drum 31 and at the top of the filter plate 70. The rotation of the drum 31 drives the turbine disk 34 to rotate, which stirs the mixed liquid at the bottom of the outer shell 20. The rotation of the rotating shaft 62 and the stirring rod 63 is driven by the motor 61, which drives the mixed liquid at the bottom of the outer shell 20 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby improving the stirring efficiency and allowing the two phase liquids to mix more quickly and be fed into the drum 31 for extraction.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting seat 64 is located at the bottom inside the housing 20. The top of the rotating shaft 62 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 64. The cleaning brush 65 is located at the top of the connecting seat 64 and is in contact with the bottom of the filter plate 70. The cleaning tube 66 is located on one side of the bottom of the extractor 10 and is connected to the bottom of the housing 20. The rotation of the rotating shaft 62 drives the connecting seat 64 and the cleaning brush 65 to rotate, so that the cleaning brush 65 can clean the bottom of the filter plate 70. This prevents the precipitates in the two phase liquids from clogging the filter plate 70, maintains the flow rate of the centrifugal extractor, and prevents the accumulation of precipitates from reducing the extraction and separation efficiency. After long-term use, water can be introduced into the housing 20 through the cleaning tube 66 to clean the housing 20 and the filter plate 70 in conjunction with the rotation of the stirring rod 63 and the cleaning brush 65, and discharge the precipitates, thus cleaning the precipitates at the bottom of the housing 20.

[0023] The functional principle of this application can be explained through the following methods:

[0024] In use, the two-phase liquid is introduced into the bottom of the outer casing 20 through the two inlets 40 at the bottom of the extractor 10. The motor 61 is started, causing its output shaft to drive the rotating shaft 62 to rotate. The stirring rod 63 on the outside of the rotating shaft 62 mixes the liquid at the bottom of the outer casing 20. The drive motor 32 is then started, causing the rotating drum 31 to rotate. The rotation of the turbine disk 34 at the bottom of the drum 31, combined with the counter-rotation of the stirring rod 63, improves the mixing efficiency. After mixing, the liquid passes through the filter plate 70 and enters the drum 31. Sediments in the liquid are blocked by the filter plate 70, and the rotation of the drum 31 further enhances the extraction efficiency. The heavy phase liquid flows into the heavy phase chamber from the heavy phase weir plate and then flows out from one outlet 50, allowing the light phase liquid to enter the light phase chamber from the light phase weir plate and then flow out from another outlet 50, completing the extraction process. The rotation of the rotating shaft 62 drives the connecting seat 64 and the cleaning brush 65 to rotate, so that the cleaning brush 65 cleans the precipitate attached to the bottom of the filter plate 70, preventing the accumulation of precipitate from affecting the flow rate of the liquid entering the drum 31. After long-term use, the liquid is fed into the bottom of the outer shell 20 from the cleaning pipe 66. The rotation of the stirring rod 63 and the cleaning brush 65 cleans the precipitate and discharges it, preventing the precipitate from clogging the container.

Therefore, if such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this application and their equivalents, this application also intends to include such modifications and variations.
