[0023] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A lemon flavonoid separator;
[0024] The device includes: a base 1, a mounting bracket 11, and a mounting seat 18. The mounting seat 18 is bolted to the top of the base 1. The top of the mounting seat 18 has a connecting groove 20. An electric push rod 21 is installed inside the connecting groove 20. The mounting bracket 11 is slidably mounted on the outside of the mounting seat 18. The bottom of the mounting bracket 11 has a mounting groove 12, and the top of the mounting groove 12 is connected to the output end of the electric push rod 21. The bottom of the mounting bracket 11 has a top cover 14. A feeding port 15 is installed through the top of the top cover 14. Limiting grooves 19 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the mounting seat 18. Limiting blocks 13 that are slidably connected to the limiting grooves 19 are symmetrically installed on the inner walls of both sides of the mounting grooves 12.
[0025] The base 1 provides a position for the mounting base 18. The top outer side of the mounting base 18 is slidably connected to the limiting block 13 on the inner wall of the mounting groove 12 via the limiting groove 19, so that the mounting frame 11 can slide up and down on the top outer side of the mounting base 18. The up and down sliding of the mounting frame 11 drives the top cover 14 fixed at the bottom front of the mounting frame 11 to move up and down, making it easy to open the top of the extraction separation cylinder 5 through the top cover 14. At the same time, an electric push rod 21 is installed inside the mounting base 18 through the connecting groove 20. When it is necessary to open the top of the extraction separation cylinder 5 to access the interior and the ultrasonic vibration rod 17, an electric push rod 21 is installed inside the mounting base 18. During cleaning, the electric push rod 21 is opened by the controller 2. The electric push rod 21 drives the mounting frame 11 to move upward under the limit of the mounting base 18, so that the mounting frame 11 drives the top cover 14 to move upward, opening the top of the extraction separation cylinder 5 and allowing the ultrasonic vibration rod 17 located inside the extraction separation cylinder 5 to move upward, thus facilitating the cleaning of the separator by the staff. When separating and extracting lemon flavonoids, it is only necessary to add the crushed lemon and the extraction liquid into the interior of the extraction separation cylinder 5 through the feed port 15, and then turn on the ultrasonic extractor 3 to extract lemon flavonoids.
[0026] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 A lemon flavonoid separator;
[0027] Includes an ultrasonic vibrating rod 17 and an extraction separation cylinder 5. An ultrasonic extractor 3 is mounted on top of the base 1 (the power of the ultrasonic extractor is 500–1000W, and the power density is controlled at 0.3–0.5W / cm³). 2 Based on the liquid volume inside the extraction separation cylinder, the extraction time is 10–30 minutes per extraction, which can be adjusted according to the degree of raw material pulverization. An ultrasonic generator 16 (operating frequency 20–40kHz, preferably 28kHz, to balance cavitation effect and cell disruption efficiency) is mounted on the top of the mounting frame 11. An ultrasonic vibration rod 17 (316L stainless steel, corrosion-resistant and with high acoustic transmission efficiency, diameter 10–15mm, length 50–100mm shorter than the height of the extraction separation cylinder to ensure 80% immersion depth below the liquid surface) moves synchronously with the lifting and lowering of the top cover to avoid... To prevent collision with the cylinder wall, a controller 2 is installed on the top side of the base 1, and the controller 2 is connected to the electric push rod 21 by circuit. A support base 4 is installed on the top of the base 1, and an extraction separation cylinder 5 is installed on the top of the support base 4. The extraction separation cylinder 5 is located outside the ultrasonic vibration rod 17. A threaded through port 6 is installed through the bottom front of the extraction separation cylinder 5. A sealing ring 7 is installed at the connection port of the threaded through port 6. A threaded mounting shell 8 is installed through the sealing ring 7 at the connection port of the threaded through port 6. A filter screen 9 is installed inside the threaded mounting shell 8. A liquid outlet valve 10 is installed through the front of the threaded mounting shell 8.
[0028] The ultrasonic extractor 3 has an extraction switch. When turned on, the ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic generator 16 are emitted through the ultrasonic vibration rod 17. As the ultrasonic waves propagate in the liquid, they generate alternating high-pressure (compression) and low-pressure (sparse) cycles. When the pressure is lower than the liquid's saturated vapor pressure, tiny bubbles (cavities) are formed. When these cavities close instantaneously, they generate an impact pressure of up to 3000 MPa, instantly destroying cell walls or tissue structures, causing limonene to separate into the liquid solvent. The high-frequency vibrations (usually above 20 kHz) generated by the ultrasonic waves cause mechanical vibrations and shear forces in the liquid, refining the particle boundary layer, accelerating the rupture of cell outer walls, and further promoting the dissolution of substances. The support base 4 serves as the extraction separation cylinder. The installation position of 5 provides support for the extraction separation cylinder 5. After extraction and separation, the liquid containing lemon flavonoids is discharged by opening the liquid outlet valve 10. Before being discharged, the liquid is filtered through the filter screen 9. When it is necessary to discharge the lemon pulp inside, since the liquid outlet valve 10 is threadedly connected to the threaded through-hole 6 through the threaded mounting shell 8, the sealing ring 7 is made of rubber to increase the sealing of the connection. By rotating the threaded mounting shell 8, the threaded mounting shell 8 is disassembled from one end of the threaded through-hole 6, so that the lemon pulp inside can be discharged through the threaded through-hole 6 under rinsing, making the discharge of lemon pulp simpler and also convenient for cleaning the filter screen 9 inside the threaded mounting shell 8.
[0029] The working principle is as follows: First, place the separator in the desired position using the base 1. Then, add the crushed lemon and liquid solvent into the extraction separation cylinder 5. By turning on the ultrasonic extractor 3, the ultrasonic vibration rod 17 transmits ultrasonic waves to the solution containing lemon fragments. The high-frequency vibration (usually above 20kHz) generated by the ultrasonic waves causes mechanical vibration and shear force in the liquid, which refines the particle boundary layer and accelerates the rupture of the cell outer wall, allowing lemon flavonoids to separate into the liquid solvent. After separation, the liquid outlet valve 10 is opened to discharge the solution containing lemon flavonoids.
[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention 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 essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
