Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of microcapsule generator technology, and in particular to a modular and simple microcapsule generator. Background Technology
[0002] A microencapsulation generator is a device used for microcapsule formation, where a microcapsule is a miniature container or package with a polymer wall. Microcapsule granulation technology is the technique of encapsulating and sealing solids, liquids, or gases within a microcapsule to create a solid microparticle product.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN209715073U discloses a simple microcapsule generator. A gas pressure of 0.12 MPa is introduced into the liquid storage cylinder through a gas source pipe, causing 10% sodium alginate in the liquid storage cylinder to drip into the generator under the pressure of 0.12 MPa. The shear gas flow pipe controls the gas flow rate at 5 liters / minute, thereby obtaining microcapsules with a diameter of 30-50 micrometers.
[0004] However, compared with existing technologies and prior art documents, existing modular simple microcapsule generators produce microcapsules by intermittently supplying shear airflow into the capsule generator through air suspension during use. However, after each injection, a certain period of time must be waited before the capsules can be refilled before they can be used again, resulting in poor continuity and reduced production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a modular and simple microcapsule generator.
[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved by adopting the following technical solution:
[0007] A modular, simple microcapsule generator includes a liquid storage tank. A pressurizing mechanism is installed on one side of the liquid storage tank. A capsule generator is sealed to the bottom of the liquid storage tank. A first three-way pipe is connected to one side of the capsule generator. A pressure supply mechanism is symmetrically installed at the input end of the first three-way pipe. The pressure supply mechanism includes a connecting pipe connected to the first three-way pipe. Both ends of the connecting pipe are equipped with electrically controlled valves. A metering cylinder is fixed in the middle of the connecting pipe. A second three-way pipe is connected to the connecting pipe away from the first three-way pipe.
[0008] Preferably, the pressurizing mechanism includes a pressurizing pipe, an electric pressure regulating valve, and an external connecting pipe, wherein the pressurizing pipe is welded to the liquid storage tank.
[0009] Preferably, the pressurizing pipe is connected to the clamp of the electric pressure regulating valve, and the external pipe is connected to the clamp of the electric pressure regulating valve.
[0010] Preferably, one end of the second tee pipe is connected to a pressure tank, and the pressure tank is connected to the clamp of the second tee pipe.
[0011] Preferably, a smart pressure gauge is provided at the top of the metering cylinder, and the smart pressure gauge is connected to the metering cylinder pipeline.
[0012] Preferably, a base is provided at the bottom of the liquid storage tank, and micropores are provided in the middle of the base.
[0013] Preferably, a discharge pipe is installed at the bottom of the capsule generator, and the discharge pipe is connected to the capsule generator clamp.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this technology are:
[0015] By setting up a first three-way pipe, a pressure supply mechanism, and a second three-way pipe, the first and second three-way pipes can be connected to the capsule generator and the pressure tank, respectively. Then, two sets of pressure supply mechanisms are installed inside the first and second three-way pipes, allowing the two sets of pressure supply mechanisms to supply air synchronously during use. One set of pressure supply mechanisms first supplies pressure to the capsule generator. After the pressure supply of one set is completed, the other set of pressure supply mechanisms supplies pressure to the capsule generator. At this time, the first set of pressure supply mechanisms supplies air to the capsule generator for subsequent needs. By repeating the above operation, uninterrupted air supply can be completed, improving continuity and production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To enable those skilled in the art to understand the technical solution of this utility model more clearly, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the implementation of this utility model is not limited thereto.
[0021] like Figures 1-2As shown, this embodiment provides a modular, simple microcapsule generator, including a storage tank 1 for storing stock solution. A pressurizing mechanism 2 is installed on one side of the storage tank 1. A capsule generator 3 is sealed to the bottom of the storage tank 1. A first three-way pipe 4 is connected to one side of the capsule generator 3. The first three-way pipe 4 can connect two sets of pressure supply mechanisms 5 and the capsule generator 3. Pressure supply mechanisms 5 are symmetrically installed at the input end of the first three-way pipe 4. Each pressure supply mechanism 5 includes a connecting pipe 501 connected to the first three-way pipe 4. The connecting pipe 501 can connect to the first three-way pipe 4 and the second three-way pipe 6. Both ends of the connecting pipe 501 are equipped with an electric control valve 502, which can control the opening and closing of the two ends of the connecting pipe 501. A metering cylinder 503 is fixed in the middle of the connecting pipe 501. The metering cylinder 503 can store a metered amount of gas, thereby ensuring the amount of gas entering the capsule generator 3 in a single use. The connecting pipe 501 is connected to the second three-way pipe 6 away from the first three-way pipe 4. The second three-way pipe 6 can connect to two sets of pressure supply mechanisms 5 and pressure tank 7.
[0022] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the pressurizing mechanism 2 includes a pressurizing pipe 201, an electric pressure regulating valve 202, and an external pipe 203. The pressurizing pipe 201 is welded to the liquid storage tank 1 to facilitate the delivery of high-pressure gas into the liquid storage tank 1 through the pressurizing pipe 201.
[0023] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the pressurization pipe 201 is connected to the electric pressure regulating valve 202 via a clamp, and the external pipe 203 is connected to the electric pressure regulating valve 202 via a clamp. It can be connected to an external gas supply device through the external pipe 203 and automatically regulate the pressure through the electric pressure regulating valve 202.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, one end of the second three-way pipe 6 is connected to a pressure tank 7, and the pressure tank 7 is connected to the second three-way pipe 6 by a pipe clamp, so that the pressure tank 7 can supply air to the pressure supply mechanism 5 through the second three-way pipe 6.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, a smart pressure gauge 8 is installed at the top of the metering cylinder 503, and the smart pressure gauge 8 is connected to the pipe of the metering cylinder 503, which can detect the pressure inside the metering cylinder 503.
[0026] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a base 9 is provided at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 1, and a micropore 10 is provided in the middle of the base 9. After a certain amount of high-pressure gas is supplied into the liquid storage tank 1, the original liquid in the liquid storage tank 1 enters the capsule generator 3 through the micropore 10.
[0027] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a discharge pipe 11 is installed at the bottom of the capsule generator 3. The discharge pipe 11 is connected to the pipe clamp of the capsule generator 3, which enables the generated capsules to be discharged through the discharge pipe 11.
[0028] The working principle of this device is as follows: In practical use, the device stores the raw liquid in the storage tank 1, connects to an external gas supply device via the external pipe 203, and automatically adjusts the pressure via the electric pressure regulating valve 202. High-pressure gas is then supplied to the storage tank 1 through the pressurization pipe 201. After a measured amount of high-pressure gas is supplied to the storage tank 1, the raw liquid in the storage tank 1 enters the capsule generator 3 through the micropores 10. Upon entering the capsule generator 3, the electric control valve 502 near the pressure tank 7 is opened first. The pressure tank 7 then supplies gas to the pressure supply mechanism 5 through the second three-way pipe 6. At this time, the metering cylinders 503 in both pressure supply mechanisms 5 are filled with gas. A fixed amount of gas is supplied, and the pressure inside the metering cylinder 503 is detected by the intelligent pressure gauge 8. After the predetermined gas pressure is reached, the electrically controlled valve 502 near the pressure tank 7 closes, and the electrically controlled valve 502 near the capsule generator 3 in one of the pressure supply mechanisms 5 opens. The gas enters the capsule generator 3 through the connecting pipe 501 and the first three-way valve. The original liquid is formed into microcapsules by air suspension. The formed microcapsules are discharged through the discharge pipe 11. After one pressure supply mechanism 5 is completed, another pressure supply mechanism 5 starts to work, and the previous pressure supply mechanism 5 resumes gas supply. The above operation is repeated to complete the uninterrupted gas supply, thereby improving continuity and production efficiency.
[0029] The above are merely further embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope disclosed by this utility model, based on the technical solution and concept of this utility model, shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
