Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of lactulose production equipment, and in particular to a lactulose oral solution production mixing tank. Background Technology
[0002] Lactulose is a synthetic disaccharide that is not absorbed in the intestines. It is broken down by colonic bacteria to lower the intestinal pH and block the absorption of ammonia. The high osmotic pressure of the disaccharide can also be used to treat constipation. It has no intestinal irritation and is safe to use.
[0003] Currently, lactulose preparations available in China are mainly available in powder, syrup, and oral solution forms. Among these, oral solution is the primary dosage form, and it is characterized by its ease of swallowing, convenient administration, and pleasant taste, thus greatly improving patient compliance.
[0004] The production process requires the use of a mixing tank to input and mix the high-quality raw materials. However, most of the mixing tanks used in the production of lactulose oral solutions currently only perform single mixing and stirring, which has low mixing efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, a mixing tank with high mixing efficiency is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0007] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, a new mixing tank for lactulose oral solution production is proposed to address the problem that most current mixing tanks for lactulose oral solution production use only single mixing and stirring, which results in low mixing efficiency.
[0008] (II) Technical Solution
[0009] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model proposes a mixing tank for producing lactulose oral solution, including a main body, with a discharge port at the bottom of the main body, and a controllable valve installed inside the discharge port.
[0010] The main body has symmetrical upper conveying cylinders with inner openings at the top, and the openings of the upper conveying cylinders are connected to each other. Each upper conveying cylinder has an upper spiral auger rotatably installed inside. A first motor is installed on the outside of the upper conveying cylinder and connected to the upper spiral auger. The upper end of the upper conveying cylinder has a feed port that penetrates the interior, and the bottom of the connection between the upper conveying cylinders has a downward connection port.
[0011] A rotating shaft 2 is rotatably mounted at the bottom end of the main housing. Several stirring rods 2 are provided on the outside of the rotating shaft 2. A fourth motor is installed on the outside of the main housing and connected to one side of the rotating shaft 2.
[0012] Furthermore, a symmetrically arranged lower conveyor cylinder is fitted and installed at the lower end of the upper conveyor cylinder, and the inner openings of the lower conveyor cylinders are connected to each other. The connection port passes through the upper end of the connection of the lower conveyor cylinders. A lower spiral auger is rotatably installed inside the lower conveyor cylinder. A second motor is installed on the outside of the lower conveyor cylinder and connected to the lower spiral auger. Both sides of the lower conveyor cylinder are provided with downward-penetrating discharge ports.
[0013] Furthermore, the upper conveying cylinder is inclined toward the connection port, while the lower conveying cylinder is inclined toward the lower feed port.
[0014] Furthermore, an arc-shaped filter screen is suspended in the middle of the main housing via a step, and a side door is located at the upper end of the filter screen on the outer side of the main housing.
[0015] Furthermore, a rotating shaft is rotatably mounted at the upper end of the main housing, and a stirring rod is provided on the outside of the rotating shaft. A third motor is installed on the outside of the main housing and connected to the rotating shaft. A scraper is installed on one side of the stirring rod and contacts the filter screen.

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0018] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0019] 1. In this utility model, the raw materials are fed into the upper conveying cylinder through the feed inlet. Under the simultaneous action of the upper spiral augers on both sides, the raw materials approach each other, causing them to collide and fuse. The raw materials are then fed into the lower conveying cylinder through the connection port, where they are separated to both sides by the lower spiral auger inside. During the movement, they are mixed again and then fall to the lower end of the main box through the discharge port. Driven by the fourth motor, the rotating shaft two drives the stirring rod two to rotate, thus mixing the raw materials. This allows the raw materials to be mixed multiple times, resulting in better mixing effect, higher efficiency, and more uniformity.
[0020] 2. In this utility model, by setting a filter screen in the main box, impurities in the raw materials can be cleaned, thus avoiding any impact on the mixing effect. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model provides a lactulose oral solution production mixing tank, including a main body 1, which allows for internal mixing to prevent spillage. The bottom of the main body 1 is provided with a discharge port 19 for discharging, and a controllable valve 110 is installed inside the discharge port 19 to facilitate operator control of the discharging process. A controller 3 is installed on the outside of the main body 1, which facilitates the operation of the electrical components in the device, making operation more convenient. The bottom of the main body 1 is provided with support feet 2 to raise the main body 1, which facilitates discharging from the bottom.
[0028] The main housing 1 has symmetrically arranged upper conveyor cylinders 8 with inner openings at its top, and the openings of the upper conveyor cylinders 8 are interconnected. Each upper conveyor cylinder 8 has an upper auger 9 rotatably mounted inside. A first motor 5 is installed on the outside of the upper conveyor cylinder 8 and connected to the upper auger 9. The upper end of each upper conveyor cylinder 8 has a through-feed inlet 4, allowing the two upper conveyor cylinders 8 to convey raw materials inwards. The first motor 5 drives the upper auger 9, improving the conveying effect and bringing the two raw materials closer together for mixing, achieving the first stage of mixing. The bottom of the connection between the upper conveyor cylinders 8 has a downward-facing connection port 10, allowing raw materials to be discharged downwards through the connection port 10 during inward mixing. The upper conveyor cylinders 8 are inclined towards the connection port 10, improving the inward conveying effect and preventing blockage on one side. A symmetrically arranged lower conveyor cylinder 11 is fitted and installed at the lower end of the lower conveyor cylinder 8, and the inner openings of the lower conveyor cylinder 11 are connected to each other. The connection port 10 passes through the upper end of the connection of the lower conveyor cylinder 11, which facilitates the first-stage mixed raw material to enter the middle of the lower conveyor cylinder 11 and disperse to both sides. A lower spiral auger 12 is rotatably installed inside the lower conveyor cylinder 11, and a second motor 6 is installed on the outside of the lower conveyor cylinder 11 and connected to the lower spiral auger 12. Both sides of the lower conveyor cylinder 11 are provided with downward-through discharge ports 13. Under the rotation of the lower spiral auger 12 driven by the second motor 6, the raw material entering the interior is easily dispersed and separated to both sides by force, so that the raw material is mixed again during the separation process, resulting in a better mixing effect. The lower conveyor cylinder 11 is inclined to the discharge ports 13, which makes the raw material move to both sides more effectively.
[0029] A rotating shaft 112 is rotatably mounted at the bottom end of the main housing 1. Several stirring rods 113 are provided on the outside of the rotating shaft 112. A fourth motor 111 is installed on the outside of the main housing 1 and connected to one side of the rotating shaft 112. When the fourth motor 111 drives the rotating shaft 112 to rotate, the stirring rods 113 on the outside mix the internal raw materials, so that the raw materials can be mixed again and mixed multiple times from top to bottom, resulting in better mixing effect and higher efficiency.
[0030] A curved filter screen 17 is suspended from the middle of the main chamber 1 via a step. The curved design facilitates the downward flow of the raw material. A side door 7 is located on the outside of the main chamber 1, above the filter screen 17, to facilitate the replacement of the filter screen 17. The filter screen 17 filters impurities in the raw material. A rotating shaft 14 is rotatably installed at the upper end of the main chamber 1. A stirring rod 16 is installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 14 to agitate the raw material again during filtration, thereby enhancing the agitation effect. A third motor 15 is installed on the outside of the main chamber 1 and connected to the rotating shaft 14. A scraper 18 is installed on one side of the stirring rod 16 to contact the filter screen 17. The scraping action of the scraper 18 on the filter screen 17 can prevent clogging of the filter screen 17 and affect the filtration effect.
[0031] Working principle: In use, first connect the first motor 5, the second motor 6, the third motor 15, and the fourth motor 111 to the controller 3 and connect to an external power supply. Then, feed two different raw materials into the upper conveying cylinder 8 through the feed port 4. The first motor 5 drives the upper auger 9 to rotate, causing the different raw materials to move inward and come into contact with each other. After mixing, they enter the lower conveying cylinder 11 through the connection port 10. The second motor 6 drives the lower auger 12 to rotate, causing the incoming raw materials to separate to both sides. During the separation process, the raw materials are mixed again. Then, they fall to the upper end of the filter screen 17 through the discharge ports 13 on both sides. The third motor 15 drives the rotating shaft 14, which stirs the stirring rod 16 to enhance the mixing effect. The scraper 18 further improves the filtration effect. The filtered raw materials fall to the bottom of the main box 1. The fourth motor 111 drives the rotating shaft 112, which rotates the stirring rod 113 to stir and mix. Finally, the raw materials are discharged through the discharge port 19, thus completing the work.
