Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of propolis concentration and extraction technology, specifically a propolis concentration and extraction device. Background Technology

[0002] When extracting and concentrating propolis, ethanol extraction can be used. The principle involves using ethanol as a solvent, and through soaking or heating, dissolving the active ingredients in the propolis into the ethanol. After filtration and concentration, the propolis extract is obtained. Concentration is typically performed using a vacuum evaporator, which mainly consists of six parts: the main body of the concentrator, a first condenser, a vapor-liquid separator, a second condenser, a cooler, and a receiving tank. The concentrator usually has a viewing window for easy observation of the contents and an outlet for discharging the material. After concentration, the concentrator will contain the concentrated propolis extract, which needs to be discharged. However, the extract may be in a paste-like state and have a certain viscosity, easily adhering to the inner wall of the tank and difficult to drain. Furthermore, some concentrators also have coils, stirring rods, and other components for temperature regulation and material stirring; these components also tend to adhere to the extract, making cleaning difficult and inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a propolis concentration and extraction device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A propolis concentration and extraction device, comprising:

[0006] The tank consists of an air inlet pipe that supplies airflow to the cleaning mechanism and a cleaning mechanism that cleans the inside of the tank. The top of the air inlet pipe extends through the top of the tank. The cleaning mechanism is located inside the tank and includes an outer ring with an inner ring inside. Two annular plates are rotatably engaged between the outer and inner rings. Multiple universal tubes are fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the outer ring and the inner side wall of the inner ring. The interior of any universal tube is connected to the space between the outer and inner rings. The bottom of the air inlet pipe is fixedly connected to an annular plate. An adjustment mechanism is located inside the tank.

[0007] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes:

[0008] The tank has multiple guide rods and a fixing box. The top ends of the guide rods are rotatably connected to the top surface of the tank. Each annular plate has multiple sleeve holes on its top surface, and each sleeve hole on the annular plate corresponds to a guide rod. Each guide rod is slidably fitted into the corresponding sleeve holes on two annular plates. The fixing box is fixedly connected to the top of the tank and has an air pump inside. The air pump's outlet end is fixedly connected to the top end of the air inlet pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, each guide rod has a toothed ring slidably sleeved on its outer side wall, each toothed ring has multiple protrusions fixedly connected to its inner side wall, each guide rod has multiple grooves on its outer side wall, each protrusion is slidably engaged in the interior of an adjacent groove, each outer ring inner side wall and inner ring outer side wall are fixedly connected to multiple tooth blocks, and the teeth on each toothed ring mesh with the tooth blocks on the outer ring and the inner ring.

[0010] Furthermore, each of the inner walls of any one of the holes is rotatably fitted with a sealing ring, and each guide rod is slidably fitted inside the adjacent sealing ring.

[0011] Furthermore, the top of the tank is fixedly connected to multiple motor boxes, and each motor box corresponds to a guide rod. Each motor box contains a drive motor, and the motor shaft of each drive motor is fixedly connected to the top of the adjacent guide rod.

[0012] Furthermore, the fixed box is equipped with an automatic winch, and the automatic winch is fixedly wound with a sling, the top of which is fixedly connected to a ring plate.

[0013] Furthermore, a descaling nozzle is fixedly connected to one end of each universal joint.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] By starting the air pump, airflow enters the space between the outer and inner rings through the air inlet pipe. The airflow then exits through the universal joint and the descaling nozzles, causing the fan-shaped airflow from the descaling nozzles to scrape away the material adhering to the internal components and inner walls of the tank. The direction of the descaling nozzles can be adjusted by moving the universal joint, thereby adjusting the direction of the fan-shaped airflow. Then, multiple drive motors are started to rotate adjacent guide rods, causing the guide rods to drive the outer and inner rings to rotate synchronously through toothed rings and toothed blocks. The automatic winch is also started to control the height position of the outer and inner rings using slings, thus facilitating the discharge of materials from inside the tank.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5 In this embodiment of the present invention, a propolis concentration and extraction device includes:

[0024] The tank 100 includes an air inlet pipe 200 that supplies airflow to the cleaning mechanism 300 and a cleaning mechanism 300 that cleans the inside of the tank 100. The top end of the air inlet pipe 200 passes through the top of the tank 100. The cleaning mechanism 300 is located inside the tank 100. The cleaning mechanism 300 includes an outer ring 310 and an inner ring 320 inside the outer ring 310. Two annular plates 330 are rotatably engaged between the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320. Multiple universal tubes 301 are fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the outer ring 310 and the inner side wall of the inner ring 320. The interior of any universal tube 301 is connected to the space between the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320. The bottom end of the air inlet pipe 200 is fixedly connected to an annular plate 330. The adjustment mechanism 400 is located inside the tank 100.

[0025] Specifically, tank 100 is a concentration tank in a vacuum depressurization concentrator. The coil is located inside the inner ring 320. Two annular plates 330 can seal the space between the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320 to prevent airflow leakage between the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320. Then, airflow is injected between the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320 through the air inlet pipe 200, so that the airflow is sprayed out through multiple universal tubes 301. By moving the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320, the universal tubes 301 can be moved inside the tank 100, thereby using the airflow to scrape the material adhering to the coil and the inner wall of the tank 100, so that the material falls out and is discharged from the bottom outlet of the tank 100. The universal tubes 301 can be manually bent in advance to adjust the opening direction of the universal tubes 301, thereby adjusting the angle of the sprayed airflow, so that the airflow can be sprayed onto the coil and stirring rod, etc., to scrape the material, thereby facilitating the discharge of material inside the tank 100.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figure 2-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism 400 includes:

[0028] Multiple guide rods 410 and a fixing box 440 are provided. The top ends of the guide rods 410 are rotatably connected to the inner top surface of the tank body 100. Multiple sleeve holes are provided on the top surface of any annular plate 330, and each sleeve hole on any annular plate 330 corresponds one-to-one with a guide rod 410. Each guide rod 410 is slidably fitted into the corresponding sleeve holes on two annular plates 330. The fixing box 440 is fixedly connected to the top of the tank body 100, and an air pump is installed inside the fixing box 440. The air outlet of the air pump is fixedly connected to the top end of the air inlet pipe 200. The outer wall of each guide rod 410 is... A toothed ring 420 is slidably sleeved, and multiple protrusions are fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of any toothed ring 420. Multiple grooves are opened on the outer sidewall of any guide rod 410, and any protrusion is slidably engaged in the interior of an adjacent groove. Multiple toothed blocks 303 are fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the outer ring 310 and the outer sidewall of the inner ring 320. The gear teeth on any toothed ring 420 mesh with the toothed blocks 303 on the outer ring 310 and the toothed blocks 303 on the inner ring 320. A sealing ring 331 is rotatably sleeved on the inner sidewall of any sleeve hole, and any guide rod 410 is slidably sleeved in the interior of an adjacent sealing ring 331.

[0029] In this embodiment, an air pump and an air inlet pipe 200 are used to inject airflow into the space between the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320. Multiple guide rods 410 are used to guide the movement direction of the inner ring 320 and the outer ring 310. By synchronously rotating the guide rods 410, the guide rods 410 use grooves and convex strips to drive the adjacent toothed rings 420 to rotate synchronously. This causes the toothed rings 420 to drive the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320 to rotate synchronously using tooth blocks 303. This causes the universal joints 301 on the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320 to rotate synchronously. The ejected airflow rotates with the adjacent outer ring 310 or inner ring 320, scraping the coils and inner walls inside the tank 100. The sealing ring 331 can reduce airflow leakage in the space between the outer ring 310 and the inner ring 320.

[0030] like Figure 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of motor boxes 430 are fixedly connected to the top of the tank body 100, and the plurality of motor boxes 430 correspond one-to-one with a plurality of guide rods 410. Each motor box 430 is equipped with a drive motor, and the motor shaft of each drive motor is fixedly connected to the top of the adjacent guide rod 410. An automatic winch is provided inside the fixed box 440, and a sling 441 is fixedly wound around the automatic winch. The top of the sling 441 is fixedly connected to an annular plate 330.

[0031] In practice, multiple drive motors can be activated to rotate adjacent guide rods 410. Activating the automatic winch can retract and extend the sling 441 to move the outer ring 310 and inner ring 320 back and forth inside the tank 100. When retracting the sling 441, the outer ring 310 and inner ring 320 can be lifted. When extending the sling 441, the outer ring 310 and inner ring 320 can slide down naturally due to their own weight. The number of automatic winches and slings 441 can be arranged as needed. The automatic winches are all located at the top of the tank 100 for easy access by personnel.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Based on Example 1, the airflow scraping effect is improved by utilizing the descaling nozzle 302.

[0034] like Figure 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a descaling nozzle 302 is fixedly connected to one end of any universal tube 301.

[0035] In practice, by installing a descaling nozzle 302 at the universal tube 301, the airflow can form a fan-shaped airflow when it is ejected through the descaling nozzle 302, thereby increasing the airflow scraping area and improving the airflow scraping effect.
