Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine processing equipment, and more specifically, to a water-cooled cyclone pulse traditional Chinese medicine cell wall breaking and pulverizing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Cell-wall breaking and pulverization technology for traditional Chinese medicine is a key process for improving the bioavailability of medicinal materials. Common equipment typically integrates a high-speed impact pulverizer, a cyclone separator, and a pulse dust collector. Its core principle is to use a high-speed rotating spindle to drive hammers or blades to forcefully impact and shear the medicinal materials, achieving cell-level cell-wall breaking. The resulting micro-powder is then transported to a pulse bag filter for collection using negative pressure airflow. To prevent temperature rise from affecting the pulverization effect, some equipment employs air cooling or intermittent operation.
[0003] However, high-speed mechanical collisions and friction generate a large amount of heat, which accumulates in the grinding chamber. Traditional heat dissipation methods are insufficient to quickly remove this internal heat, causing the chamber temperature to rise continuously. This makes the heat-sensitive active ingredients in the medicinal materials (such as volatile oils and glycosides) prone to thermal decomposition, resulting in irreversible loss of the core active ingredients.
[0004] Based on this, the present invention provides a water-cooled cyclone pulse traditional Chinese medicine cell wall breaking and pulverizing device. Utility Model Content

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 9 The present invention will be described in further detail below.
[0027] It should be noted that the accompanying drawings are schematic and not to scale. For clarity and convenience, the relative dimensions and proportions of the parts shown are exaggerated or reduced in size; all dimensions are merely illustrative and not limiting. Furthermore, the same reference numerals are used for the same structures, elements, or fittings appearing in more than two drawings to indicate similar features.
[0028] This utility model discloses a water-cooled cyclone pulse pulverizer for breaking down and pulverizing traditional Chinese medicine. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 8 A water-cooled cyclone pulse pulverizing device for breaking down and pulverizing Chinese medicine includes a base 1, a pulverizer 2, a pulse mechanism 3, and a spiral mechanism 4. The pulverizer 2 is located on the top of the base 1, the pulse mechanism 3 is located on the top of the base 1, the spiral mechanism 4 is located on the side of the pulse mechanism 3, the bottom of the base 1 is provided with support feet, and a water-cooling mechanism 5 is also included.
[0029] Specifically, the crusher 2 (model HM-30) is installed on the top of the base 1. Its main body is an outer cover with a door hinged to the side of the cover. The side wall of the door is connected to a hopper. The inner wall of the outer cover and the inner wall of the door are equipped with multiple sets of crushing teeth. The top of the base 1 is equipped with a motor, and the output end of the motor is connected to a main shaft. Crushing blades are installed on the side of the main shaft. The blades are located inside the outer cover. In addition, a filter screen can be installed at the discharge port at the bottom of the outer cover.
[0030] During operation, the motor drives the crushing blades to rotate at high speed. After the Chinese herbal raw materials are fed into the outer cover through the hopper, the rotating crushing blades and the fixed crushing teeth work together to crush the raw materials into powder.
[0031] like Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the water cooling mechanism 5 includes a cooling tank 500, a pump body 501 (model DLSB-300) and a circulation container 502, which are opened inside the outer casing of the crusher 2; a water inlet pipe 503 is connected to one side of the outer casing of the crusher 2, and a drain pipe 504 is connected to the other side; the output end of the pump body 501 is connected to the water inlet pipe 503 through a hose; the input end of the pump body 501 is connected to the circulation container 502 through a hose; and the water inlet end of the circulation container 502 is connected to the drain pipe 504 through a hose.
[0032] Specifically, during the operation of the pulverizer 2, the coolant in the circulation container 502 can be pumped out by the pump body 501 and delivered to the cooling tank 500 of the outer cover, effectively controlling the temperature of the outer cover. This setting ensures that the core components of the Chinese medicinal materials will not be lost due to overheating during pulverization, and solves the problem of material adhesion caused by high temperature during the pulverization process.
[0033] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in order to enhance the cooling effect, the main shaft of the crusher 2 is equipped with a water guide groove 6, and a rotary joint 505 (specifically a cooling water rotary joint) is installed on the side end of the main shaft. The water inlet end of the rotary joint 505 is connected to the output end of the pump body 501 through a hose, and its drain (return) end is connected to the water inlet end of the return circulation container 502 through a hose.
[0034] Specifically, since the pulverizing blades also generate heat during operation, the coolant is pressurized by the pump body 501 and enters the main shaft water guide groove 6 through the rotary joint 505. It flows through the inside or near the pulverizing blades, exchanging and carrying away the heat generated, thereby avoiding damage to the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine caused by high temperature.
[0035] like Figure 9 As shown, each hose has a valve body (solenoid valve) inside.
[0036] Specifically, both the inlet end of the circulation container 502 and the outlet end of the pump body 501 are connected to a tee connector; the hose connecting the drain end of the rotary joint 505 is connected to the tee of the circulation container 502; the hose connecting the inlet end of the rotary joint 505 is connected to the tee of the outlet end of the pump body 501; the drain pipe 504 (drainage from the outer cooling tank 500) is connected to the tee of the circulation container 502; and the inlet pipe 503 (water supply from the outer cooling tank 500) is connected to the tee of the outlet end of the pump body 501.
[0037] By controlling the opening and closing state of the solenoid valves on the corresponding hoses, three cooling modes can be achieved: cooling only the outer cover, cooling only the crushing blades, or cooling both the outer cover and the crushing blades simultaneously.
[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, the pulse mechanism 3 (model MC-Ⅱ series or DMC series) includes a housing 300 mounted on the base 1. A bag assembly 301 is installed inside the housing 300. A blowing assembly 302 is installed inside the housing 300 above the bag assembly 301 for blowing the powder adhering to the outer surface of the bag assembly 301. A fan 303 is installed on the top of the housing 300 to create negative pressure inside the housing 300.
[0039] Specifically, the jetting assembly 302 includes multiple nozzles, jetting pipes, an air reservoir, and a pulse valve. Each bag filter sleeve has a corresponding nozzle at its top, and the nozzles are interconnected via jetting pipes. The air reservoir is located inside the housing 300, and the pulse valve is connected to the jetting pipe.
[0040] After the powdered medicine undergoes pre-filtration of large particles via the spiral mechanism 4, it enters the housing 300 under the negative pressure generated by the fan 303. The powdered medicine is then adsorbed and filtered by the bag filter assembly 301. A portion of the powder falls to the bottom of the housing 300, while the finer powder adheres to the surface of the bag filter sleeve. When the powder layer accumulated on the bag surface thickens, causing the system pressure difference to rise to a set value (typically 1200-1500 Pa), the control system triggers the dust removal program. At this time, the pulse valve opens, and compressed air at a pressure of 0.5-0.7 MPa in the air storage tank is ejected at high speed through the blowpipe. The high-speed airflow induces a secondary airflow 5-7 times stronger than the surrounding air, causing the bag filter sleeve to expand instantly and shake violently, thereby peeling off the entire attached powder layer.
[0041] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7As shown, the spiral mechanism 4 includes a bucket-shaped cover 400 disposed on the side of the housing 300. A connecting pipe 401 is provided at the top of the bucket-shaped cover 400, with its bottom end located inside the bucket-shaped cover 400. The top end of the connecting pipe 401 is connected to the housing 300 via a first pipe body 402, and the port of the first pipe body 402 is located at the bottom of the bag assembly 301. A second pipe body 403 is connected to the side of the bucket-shaped cover 400, with its port connected to the discharge end of the crusher 2. A discharge valve is provided at the bottom of the bucket-shaped cover 400.
[0042] Specifically, the negative pressure generated by the fan 303 draws the powder into the hopper 400, so that large powder particles fall to the bottom of the hopper 400 and are discharged by the unloading valve, while the dust and powder enter the housing 300 through the connecting pipe 401.
