Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high-pressure homogenizing pump technology, and in particular to a feeding device for a high-pressure homogenizing pump without material buildup. Background Technology

[0002] High-pressure homogenizers allow materials in suspension to flow at high speed through a cavity with a special internal structure under ultra-high pressure, causing a series of changes in the material's physical, chemical, and structural properties, ultimately achieving homogenization. High-pressure homogenizers are mainly used in the biological, pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries for cell disruption, beverage homogenization, fine chemical processing, and the preparation of products such as liposomes, fat emulsions, nano-suspensions, microemulsions, lipospheres, emulsions, dairy products, large-volume parenteral solutions, dyes, solar panel coatings, and conductive coatings.

[0003] There are two main types of feeding systems for existing high-pressure homogenizers: one is a coarse pipeline branching into a fine pipeline to feed the high-pressure homogenizer; the other is a main pipeline and branch pipelines of the same diameter feeding the high-pressure homogenizer. When transporting food products with adhesive properties and high viscosity, the coarse pipeline branching into a fine pipeline will form a laminar flow adhering to the wall in the coarse pipeline. Over a long period of operation, a thick layer of material will stick to the wall, leading to the proliferation of microorganisms, which will affect product quality, shorten the industrial production cycle, and increase production costs. High-pressure homogenizers that use fine pipelines of the same diameter throughout the system are smaller in size and not suitable for industrial production, and there is still the possibility of slow material flow rate and adhesion to the wall in the branch pipelines.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an improved high-pressure homogenizing pump feeding device without material buildup to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art and provide a high-pressure homogenizing pump feeding device without material buildup.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is:

[0007] A feeding device for a high-pressure homogenizing pump without material buildup is installed between the main pipeline and the pump body. It includes a material distribution block and an adjustable connecting mechanism. The material distribution block has a regular polyhedral structure. A spherical material distribution cavity is provided at the center of the material distribution block. A first interface communicating with the spherical material distribution cavity is provided on one side wall of the material distribution block. The first interface is connected to the main pipeline. A second interface is provided on the other side walls of the material distribution block. The second interface is connected to a branch pipeline provided on the pump body. The diameter of the first interface is larger than the diameter of the second interface. The adjustable connecting mechanism is detachably connected to one side wall of the material distribution block.

[0008] Preferably, both the first interface and the second interface are threaded interfaces. The first interface has a first pair of threads connected to its internal thread, and the other end of the first pair of threads is threaded to a first quick-connect male or a first quick-connect female. The second interface has a second pair of threads connected to its internal thread, and the other end of the second pair of threads is threaded to a second quick-connect male or a second quick-connect female.

[0009] Preferably, a first vacuum connector is provided at the first interface and a second vacuum connector is provided at the second interface.

[0010] Preferably, a first connecting flange is provided at the first interface, and a second connecting flange is provided at the second interface.

[0012] Preferably, the side wall of the material distribution block is provided with connecting screw holes arranged in a circumferential array.

[0013] Preferably, the connecting block has two locking handles connected by threads.

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

[0015] This invention, by setting up a regular polyhedral material distribution block and a spherical material distribution cavity machined in the center of the material distribution block, ensures that the material entering the material distribution block through the main pipeline maintains the same flow velocity when being transported to each branch pipeline, thus ensuring a turbulent flow state.

[0023] To make the technical means, technical features, utility model purpose and technical effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to specific illustrations.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a feeding device for a high-pressure homogenizing pump without material buildup is connected between the main pipeline 1 and the pump body 2. Multiple branch pipelines 3 are installed on the pump body 2. The inner diameters of the branch pipelines 3 are the same, and the inner diameter of the branch pipelines 3 is smaller than the inner diameter of the main pipeline 1. The feeding device includes a material distribution block 4 and an adjustable connecting mechanism. The adjustable connecting mechanism is connected to the material distribution block 4 for installation and fixation of the material distribution block 4. It can realize the installation of the material distribution block 4 on the pump body 2 or fix the material distribution block 4 in a suitable position, facilitating adjustment of the material distribution block 4. The material distribution block 4 is machined into a regular polyhedron structure. A spherical material distribution cavity 5 is machined at the center of the material distribution block 4. A first... Interface 6 and the remaining sidewalls of the material distribution block 4 are all machined with second interfaces 7. Both the first interface 6 and the second interface 7 are connected to the spherical material distribution cavity 5. The first interface 6 is connected to the main pipeline 1 to ensure that the inner diameter of the first interface 6 and the main pipeline 1 are the same. Material is conveyed into the spherical material distribution cavity 5 through the main pipeline 1 and the first interface 6. The second interface 7 is connected to the branch pipelines 3 one by one through the pipe to ensure that the inner diameter of the second interface 7 and the branch pipeline 3 are the same. Material in the spherical material distribution cavity 5 is conveyed to each branch pipeline 3 through the second interface 7, thereby entering the high-pressure homogenization stage to achieve uniform material distribution and ensure pressure balance. The pipes connected to the branch pipelines 3 by the second interface 7 can be rigid pipes or flexible pipes.

[0026] Both the first interface 6 and the second interface 7 are threaded interfaces. A first pair of threads 8 are threaded into the first interface 6, through which a first quick-connect male connector 9 or a first quick-connect female connector 10 is connected. Similarly, on the main pipeline 1, the first quick-connect female connector 10 or the first quick-connect male connector 9 can be connected via the first pair of threads 8. The first quick-connect male connector 9 or the first quick-connect female connector 10 on the first interface 6 is compatible with the first quick-connect female connector 10 or the first quick-connect male connector 9 on the main pipeline 1. Within the second interface 7… A second pair of threads 11 is connected by a thread, and a second quick-connect male connector 12 or a second quick-connect female connector 13 is connected to the second interface 7 via the second pair of threads 11. Correspondingly, on the pipe connecting the branch line 3 and the second interface 7, a second quick-connect female connector 13 or a second quick-connect male connector 12 can also be connected via the second pair of threads 11. The second quick-connect male connector 12 or the second quick-connect female connector 13 on the second interface 7 is adapted to be plugged into the second quick-connect female connector 13 or the second quick-connect male connector 12 on the pipe. Through plugging, quick connection and disassembly can be achieved.

[0027] In practical use, all connections must meet hygiene standards to ensure no material accumulation on the pipe walls and no dead corners for material buildup, thus guaranteeing product quality. The main pipeline 1 is designed with a flow rate of 1.2-2.5 m / s, preferably 1.5-1.8 m / s, based on industrial production conditions. This ensures turbulence within the main pipeline 1 when conveying viscous protein materials, preventing material buildup on the pipe walls. The branch pipeline 3 is designed with the same flow rate as the main pipeline 1, 1.2-2.5 m / s, preferably 1.5-1.8 m / s, to ensure turbulence within the branch pipeline 3 when conveying viscous protein materials, preventing material buildup on the pipe walls, reducing the risk of microbial adhesion, and improving the production cycle by up to 30%. This also ensures product quality, preventing discoloration due to material buildup on the pipe walls and improving the product's hydration whiteness.

[0028] like Figure 4As shown, the adjustable connection mechanism includes a first connecting rod 20, a second connecting rod 21, and a connecting block 22. The connecting block 22 has through holes for mounting the first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 21, as well as grooves for fastening the first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 21. Both the first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 21 penetrate and slide within the through holes on the connecting block 22. After connection, the axes of the first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 21 are perpendicular to each other. A fixing seat 23 is connected to one end of the first connecting rod 20 for installation and fixation. It can be connected to the pump body 2 via the fixing seat 23, or fixed at a desired position via the fixing seat 23. A mounting plate 24 is connected to one end of the second connecting rod 21 for mounting the material distribution block 4. An avoidance hole 25 is machined on the mounting plate 24, allowing the first pair of wires 8 or the second pair of wires to be avoided. The installation position of the wire 11 allows for direct disassembly of the material distribution block 4 and the mounting plate 24 without disconnecting the quick-connect connector. The mounting plate 24 is machined with connecting slots 26 arranged in a circular array centered on the center of the clearance hole 25. Connecting screw holes 27 are machined in a circular array on one of the side walls of the material distribution block 4. The connecting screw holes 27 correspond to the connecting slots 26, enabling the connection between the material distribution block 4 and the mounting plate 24. The connecting slots 26 can accommodate the installation needs of connecting screw holes 27 with different spacing. Two locking handles 28 are threaded onto the connecting block 22. The two locking handles 28 correspond to the first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 21, respectively. After the first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 21 are adjusted to the appropriate position on the connecting block 22, the locking handles 28 lock the positions of the first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 21 on the connecting block 22.

The same first vacuum connector 14 is welded on the main pipeline 1. When connected, the two first vacuum connectors 14 are quickly connected by the first vacuum clamp 16. A second vacuum connector 15 is installed at the second interface 7. The second vacuum connector 15 is welded to the material distribution block 4. The inner diameter of the second interface 7 is the same as the inner diameter of the second vacuum connector 15. The same second vacuum connector 15 is welded on the pipeline between the branch pipeline 3 and the second interface 7. When connected, the two second vacuum connectors 15 are quickly connected by the second vacuum clamp 17.

A second connecting flange 19 is welded at the second interface 7, and a second connecting flange 19 is welded on the pipeline between the second interface 7 and the branch pipeline 3.
