Edible phycocyanin extraction membrane separation device

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of phycocyanin extraction technology, specifically a membrane separation device for edible phycocyanin extraction. It includes a separation chamber with a cover plate fitted over its upper end. A separation component is disposed inside the separation chamber, and an adjustment component is disposed outside the separation component. The adjustment component includes an adjustment cylinder with multiple second-order through-slots formed at equal angles on its outer surface. A circulation component is disposed above the cover plate, including a wastewater pump fixedly installed on the upper surface of the cover plate. In this utility model, by setting a switchable cylinder outside the separation membrane, when the solution passes through the first-order through-slot of the cylinder and is filtered by the separation membrane, the phycocyanin is normally separated. When the first-order through-slot of the cylinder is closed, the solution, driven by the wastewater pump, flushes the outer wall of the separation membrane from above, washing off impurities attached to the outer wall and allowing them to re-mix into the solution. This maintains the separation effect of the membrane and enables the latter half of the solution to be separated quickly, accelerating the separation speed.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of phycocyanin extraction technology, specifically a membrane separation device for edible phycocyanin extraction. Background Technology

[0002] Phycocyanin is a deep blue powder isolated from spirulina. It is one of the rare pigment proteins in nature. Not only is it brightly colored, but it is also a nutritious protein with a complete amino acid composition and high content of essential amino acids. Phycocyanin has the effects of anti-cancer, promoting blood cell regeneration, nourishing the ovaries, and promoting the synthesis of elastin in the human body.

[0003] The announcement number is CN222034246U, which discloses "a phycocyanin extraction membrane separation device, which relates to the technical field of phycocyanin extraction equipment, including a separation box, a feed pipe fixedly connected to the side wall of the separation box, a first electric valve fixedly connected to one end of the feed pipe, a connecting cylinder provided inside the separation box, a first mounting ring fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting cylinder, a connecting column evenly fixedly connected to the upper end of the first mounting ring, a second mounting ring fixedly connected to the end of the connecting column away from the first mounting ring, and a separation membrane fixedly connected to the side wall adjacent to the first mounting ring and the second mounting ring".

[0004] There are still some drawbacks in its use. When separating phycocyanin solution, the filtered impurities adhere to the outer wall of the separation membrane under the push of the solution. As the extraction of phycocyanin proceeds, the concentration of impurities in the solution increases. As the solution decreases, the liquid level drops, and the working area of ​​the separation membrane also decreases. This can easily lead to an increase in the amount of impurities attached to the working part of the separation membrane, resulting in a slower separation speed of the remaining phycocyanin. It is also not convenient to flush and clean the impurities on the outside of the separation membrane by changing the flow direction of the slurry. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a membrane separation device for extracting edible phycocyanin, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] An edible phycocyanin extraction membrane separation device, comprising:

[0008] A separation chamber, the upper end of which is fitted with a cover plate;

[0009] Separation components are located inside the separation chamber;

[0010] An adjustment component is disposed outside the separation component. The adjustment component includes an adjustment cylinder, and multiple No. 2 through slots are opened at equal angles on the outer surface of the adjustment cylinder.

[0011] A circulation assembly is disposed above the cover plate. The circulation assembly includes a sewage pump fixedly installed on the upper surface of the cover plate, and an inlet pipe is fixedly inserted through one side surface of the separation chamber.

[0012] Furthermore, a baffle is fixedly installed at the lower end of the inner surface of the second through groove, a locking block is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the adjusting cylinder, a locking sleeve is movably sleeved on the outside of the locking block, and a motor capable of driving the locking sleeve to rotate is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the cover plate.

[0013] Furthermore, an annular tube is fixedly installed at the upper end of the outer surface of the regulating cylinder, and multiple connecting tubes that are fixedly connected to the regulating cylinder are fixedly embedded in the outer surface of the annular tube.

[0014] Preferably, one end of each of the two annular pipes is connected to a three-way flexible hose, one end of which passes through the cover plate and is connected to the outlet of the sewage pump, and one end of the inlet pipe is connected to the inlet of the sewage pump.

[0015] Furthermore, the separation component includes:

[0016] A cylindrical structure, movable inside the separation chamber;

[0017] The separation membrane is fixedly installed inside the cylinder;

[0018] Multiple No. 1 through slots are opened at equal angles on the outer surface of the cylinder;

[0019] The material tray is fixedly embedded in the lower surface of the separation chamber.

[0020] Preferably, a plurality of No. 1 circular tubes are fixedly embedded at equal angles on the lower surface of the cylinder outside the separation membrane, a No. 2 circular tube is fixedly embedded on the lower surface of the cylinder inside the separation membrane, a discharge pipe is fixedly embedded on the lower surface of the material tray, and a plurality of bent pipes are fixedly embedded at equal angles on the inner surface of the material tray.

[0021] Preferably, the first round pipe is movably connected to the bend at the corresponding position, the second round pipe is movably connected to the discharge pipe, a sliding groove is provided on one side of the lower end of the first through groove, and the adjusting cylinder is rotatably connected to the outside of the round cylinder.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] 1. The motor drives the regulating cylinder to rotate. When the No. 1 and No. 2 channels overlap, the solution passes through the No. 1 channel and is filtered by the separation membrane. When the No. 1 and No. 2 channels are misaligned, the regulating cylinder blocks the No. 1 channel, preventing the solution from being filtered by the separation membrane. At this time, the sewage pump operates, and the solution is pumped from the inlet pipe into the inside of the annular pipe, and then injected into the upper part of the regulating cylinder. It flows down from above the separation membrane, flushing the outer wall of the separation membrane. Some of the solution continues to be separated by the separation membrane, and some of the solution is discharged from the bend pipe into the material tray, and then mixed into the solution inside the separation chamber. This washes off the impurities attached to the outer wall, allowing the impurities to re-mix into the solution, maintaining the separation effect of the separation membrane, and enabling the latter half of the solution to be separated quickly, thus accelerating the separation effect.

[0024] 2. When flushing the separation membrane, the baffle rotates with the regulating cylinder and gets stuck inside the chute, exposing the bend, so that the downward flowing solution can be re-mixed into the separation chamber to continue separation. This makes it easier for the solution to flow in a specific direction when flushing the separation membrane. During normal separation, the baffle resets and blocks the bend.

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-5 In this embodiment of the present invention, an edible phycocyanin extraction membrane separation device includes a separation chamber 1 with a cover plate 101 fitted on the upper end of the separation chamber 1, a separation component 2 disposed inside the separation chamber 1, an adjustment component 3 disposed outside the separation component 2, the adjustment component 3 including an adjustment cylinder 301, a plurality of second-order through grooves 302 are opened at equal angles on the outer surface of the adjustment cylinder 301, and a circulation component 4 disposed above the cover plate 101, the circulation component 4 including a sewage pump 402 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the cover plate 101, and an inlet pipe 401 fixedly penetrating one side surface of the separation chamber 1.

[0033] Specifically, the solution is continuously injected into the separation chamber 1, and the regulating component 3 controls the opening and closing of the outer side of the separation membrane 202. When closed, the circulation component 4 operates, pumping the solution from above the separation membrane 202 to flush and clean the outer wall of the separation membrane 202. When opened, the solution can easily enter from the outside of the separation membrane 202 for normal separation.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a locking block 304 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the adjusting cylinder 301, and a locking sleeve 306 is movably sleeved on the outside of the locking block 304. A motor 305 capable of driving the locking sleeve 306 to rotate is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the cover plate 101.

[0036] In this embodiment, the insertion of the sleeve 306 and the block 304 facilitates the disassembly of the separation component 2 after the cover plate 101 is removed. The motor 305 operates, driving the adjusting cylinder 301 to rotate. When the first channel 203 and the second channel 302 overlap, the solution passes through the first channel 203 and is filtered by the separation membrane 202. When the first channel 203 and the second channel 302 are misaligned, the adjusting cylinder 301 blocks the first channel 203, preventing the solution from being filtered by the separation membrane 202.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the regulating cylinder 301 is rotatably connected to the outside of the cylinder 201. An annular tube 403 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the outer surface of the regulating cylinder 301. Multiple connecting pipes 404, which are fixedly connected to the regulating cylinder 301, are fixedly embedded in the outer surface of the annular tube 403. Two annular tubes 403 are connected to a three-way flexible hose 405 at one end. One end of the three-way flexible hose 405 passes through the cover plate 101 and is connected to the outlet of the sewage pump 402. The three-way flexible hose 405 adapts to the rotation of the regulating cylinder 301, so that the solution can enter the interior of the regulating cylinder 301. One end of the inlet pipe 401 is connected to the inlet of the sewage pump 402. The other two ends of the inlet pipe 401 are located inside the material tray 207, which facilitates the suction of the solution inside the material tray 207.

[0038] In practice, when the No. 1 channel 203 is closed, the sewage pump 402 operates, and the solution is pumped from the inlet pipe 401 into the annular pipe 403, and then injected into the upper part of the regulating cylinder 301. It flows down from above the separation membrane 202, washing the outer wall of the separation membrane 202. Part of the solution continues to be separated by the separation membrane 202, and part of the solution is discharged from the bend pipe 206 into the material tray 207, and then mixed into the solution inside the separation chamber 1. This washes off the impurities attached to the outer wall, allowing the impurities to re-mix into the solution, maintaining the separation effect of the separation membrane 202, and enabling the latter half of the solution to be separated quickly, thus accelerating the separation speed.

[0039] like Figure 2-4 As shown, in this embodiment, the separation component 2 includes: a cylinder 201 movably disposed inside the separation chamber 1, a separation membrane 202 fixedly installed inside the cylinder 201, multiple first-order through slots 203 equally angledly opened on the outer surface of the cylinder 201, and a material tray 207 fixedly embedded in the lower surface of the separation chamber 1; multiple first-order circular tubes 204 are fixedly embedded in the lower surface of the cylinder 201 at equal angles outside the separation membrane 202, and second-order circular tubes 205 are fixedly embedded in the lower surface of the cylinder 201 at the inner side of the separation membrane 202; a discharge pipe 208 is fixedly embedded in the lower surface of the material tray 207, and multiple bent pipes 206 are fixedly embedded in the inner surface of the material tray 207 at equal angles; the first-order circular tubes 204 are movably inserted into the corresponding bent pipes 206, and the second-order circular tubes 205 are movably inserted into the discharge pipes 208. Through the insertion of the two, the separation component 2 is easy to disassemble.

[0040] In practice, the solution can be reintroduced into the separation chamber 1 by connecting the first circular tube 204 and the bent tube 206. The separated phycocyanin flows through the second circular tube 205 and is discharged from the discharge pipe 208.

[0041] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a baffle 303 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the inner surface of the second through groove 302, and a sliding groove 209 is provided on one side of the lower end of the first through groove 203.

[0042] In practice, when the separation membrane 202 is flushed, the baffle 303 rotates with the regulating cylinder 301 and gets stuck inside the chute 209, exposing the bend 206, so that the downward flowing solution can be re-mixed into the separation chamber 1 to continue separation. This makes it easier for the solution to flow in a specific direction when flushing the separation membrane 202. During normal separation, the baffle 303 resets and blocks the bend 206.

[0043] 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.

[0044] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
