Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing, specifically to a sedimentation device for the production of ginkgo biloba extract. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of ginkgo biloba extract, the sedimentation process is a crucial step. Currently, traditional sedimentation devices have shortcomings in their cooling methods, typically employing only a single cooling method and failing to achieve gradient cooling. When using hot water to dissolve the concentrate before cooling and sedimentation, excessive temperature differences can easily damage the equipment and affect product quality. Furthermore, the tank bottom structure of traditional sedimentation devices is poorly designed, with dead zones between the tank bottom and the valves. During sedimentation, sedimentation waste easily accumulates in these dead zones, causing blockages. This not only affects normal production progress but can also damage equipment and valves, increasing maintenance costs and downtime. To address these issues, we have implemented a series of improvements. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sedimentation device for the production of ginkgo biloba esters, so as to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art.

The cooling water coil is arranged around the side wall of the tank. The bottom end of the cooling water coil is connected to the cooling water inlet through a pipe. A cooling water control valve is provided on the pipe connecting the bottom end of the cooling water coil to the cooling water inlet. The top end of the cooling water coil is connected to the cooling water outlet.

[0006] The chilled water system includes: a chilled water coil, a chilled water inlet, a chilled water outlet, and a chilled water control valve.

[0015] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0016] Example 1

[0017] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, a sedimentation device for the production of ginkgo ketone esters includes: a tank 100, a bottom valve 200, a cooling water system 300, a chilled water system 400, a motor 500, a stirring shaft 600, and stirring blades 700. The bottom end of the tank 100 is connected to the bottom valve 200, which has a conical structure. The tank 100 is connected to the cooling water system 300 and the chilled water system 400. The motor 500 is located at the top of the tank 100 and is connected to the stirring shaft 600. The stirring shaft 600 is connected to the stirring blades 700.

[0019] The cooling water system 300 includes: a cooling water coil 310, a cooling water inlet 320, a cooling water outlet 330, and a cooling water control valve 340. The cooling water coil 310 is arranged around the side wall of the tank 100. The bottom end of the cooling water coil 310 is connected to the cooling water inlet 320 through a pipe. The cooling water control valve 340 is provided on the pipe connecting the bottom end of the cooling water coil 310 to the cooling water inlet 320. The top end of the cooling water coil 310 is connected to the cooling water outlet 330.

[0020] The chilled water system 400 includes: a chilled water coil 410, a chilled water inlet 420, a chilled water outlet 430, and a chilled water control valve 440. The chilled water coil 410 is arranged around the side wall of the tank 100. The bottom end of the chilled water coil 410 is connected to the chilled water inlet 420 through a pipe. The chilled water control valve 440 is provided on the pipe connecting the bottom end of the chilled water coil 410 to the chilled water inlet 420. The top end of the chilled water coil 410 is connected to the chilled water outlet 430.

[0021] The inner wall of the bottom valve 200 is polished.

[0022] Compared with traditional technologies, this invention employs a dual-channel cooling and chilled water independent piping system. By setting up independent cooling water channels and chilled water channels, both surrounding the tank sidewall, gradient cooling is achieved, avoiding the adverse effects of excessive temperature differences on equipment and products. This solves the problem that traditional settling devices use only a single cooling method, which cannot achieve gradient cooling. Furthermore, when using hot water to dissolve the concentrate for cooling and settling, excessive temperature differences can easily cause equipment damage and affect product quality.

[0023] The innovative tank bottom valve design features a conical structure with a gradually narrowing internal channel and a smooth, polished inner wall surface. The conical structure allows settled waste to drain smoothly under gravity, while the smooth inner wall reduces waste adhesion. This design solves the problem of inefficient tank bottom designs in traditional settling devices, where dead angles exist between the tank bottom and the valve, leading to waste accumulation and blockages, impacting production progress, and potentially damaging equipment and valves.

[0024] During the cooling process, an independent control system is added, with independent control valves installed in both the cooling water and chilled water channels. The flow rate and on / off state of the cooling and chilled water can be flexibly controlled according to actual production needs, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the cooling rate and temperature, improving the applicability and production efficiency of the equipment.

[0025] Compared with traditional technologies, this utility model features a dual-channel cooling pipeline, namely a cooling water channel and a chilled water channel, which achieves gradient cooling; the conical structure of the tank bottom valve has no dead corners and can effectively avoid blockage problems; the cooling water system and the chilled water system are controlled by independent valves, which can flexibly adjust the cooling process according to the actual production process requirements.

[0026] The specific embodiments of this utility model have been described above, but this utility model is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made to this utility model as long as they do not depart from its spirit.
