Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of emulsification and dispersion technology, specifically to an emulsification and dispersion device for the preparation process of carotenoid microcapsules. Background Technology

[0002] Carotenoid microcapsules provide a variety of carotenoids, which can delay the decline in organ function or aging of cell structure caused by aging. They are also suitable for people exposed to mutagenic substances, helping to reduce the damage of mutagenic substances to the body. Emulsification and dispersion equipment is required in the preparation of carotenoid microcapsules.

[0003] In the preparation of carotenoid microcapsules, the dispersion and emulsification of raw materials are usually carried out in a stirring container. The dispersion of raw materials is achieved by generating liquid vortex flow through the stirrer. However, existing emulsification and dispersion machines cannot lift the disperser itself, and the dispersion blades can only disperse and emulsify the raw materials at a fixed position. This can easily lead to uneven dispersion and emulsification of raw materials in the dispersion tank. In addition, the dispersion tank containing the raw materials is relatively heavy, which is inconvenient for manual handling. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an emulsification and dispersion device for the preparation process of carotenoid microcapsules, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an emulsification and dispersion device for the preparation process of carotenoid microcapsules, comprising a lifting and mixing assembly, wherein the lifting and mixing assembly comprises a gantry frame, an installation plate is fixedly installed at the top middle of the gantry frame, and a cylinder is bolted to the top of the installation plate, a rotary joint is connected to the telescopic end of the cylinder, and a key shaft is rotatably installed inside the rotary joint, a turbine blade is coaxially fixed to the bottom end of the key shaft, and a driven pulley is sleeved on the outside of the key shaft, and a drive pulley is provided on the side end of the installation plate, and the drive pulley is fixedly connected to the rotating end of a motor.

[0006] Furthermore, the keyway inside the hole of the driven pulley engages with the key protrusion on the outer circle of the key shaft, and the outer circle of the driven pulley is connected to the drive pulley via a synchronous belt.

[0007] Furthermore, the gantry frame is fixedly installed on the top of one side of the base plate, and a limiting seat is installed at the bottom of one side of the base plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a transfer trolley is provided on the other side of the base plate, and a dispersion bucket is supported on the transfer trolley.

[0009] Furthermore, a workstation switching assembly is installed on the other side of the base plate. The workstation switching assembly includes a base fixedly installed at the bottom of the other side of the base plate. Guide sleeves are fixedly installed around the top of the base, and a cylinder is fixedly installed in the middle of the base.

[0010] Furthermore, the workstation switching assembly also includes a lifting plate fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the cylinder. Guide rods are fixedly connected around the bottom of the lifting plate, and the guide rods are in a limited sliding fit with the corresponding guide sleeves.

[0011] Furthermore, the workstation switching assembly also includes a second motor bolted to the side end of the lifting plate. The rotating end of the second motor is fixedly connected to a drive gear, and a driven gear ring is meshed on the side end of the drive gear.

[0012] Furthermore, the workstation switching assembly also includes a rotating shaft coaxially fixed to the middle of the driven gear ring, a switching plate coaxially fixed to the top of the rotating shaft, and connecting notches on both sides of the switching plate, with the distance between the sidewalls of the connecting notches being less than the outer diameter of the edge of the dispersing barrel.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. When this utility model is in use, when the dispersion tank containing the raw materials is in the limiting seat, the motor is activated and drives the driven pulley to rotate through the synchronous belt sleeved on the outside of the drive pulley. Then, under the meshing action of the keyway in the hole of the driven pulley and the key protrusion on the outer circle of the key shaft, the key shaft is driven to rotate. During the process of stirring and mixing the turbine blades at the end of the key shaft in the dispersion tank, the cylinder pulls the key shaft up and down while maintaining rotation through the telescopic end rotary joint, thereby driving the turbine blades to fully mix the raw materials at different heights in the dispersion tank, improving the dispersion and emulsification uniformity of the raw materials in the preparation of carotenoid microcapsules.

[0015] 2. In use, the dispersion barrel containing the raw materials is first moved by a transfer trolley to the connecting notch on the side of the switching plate away from the lifting and mixing component. Then, the barrel edge of the dispersion barrel is inserted into the connecting notch. Next, cylinder two is activated to lift the lifting plate, causing the dispersion barrel to leave the transfer trolley. Then, motor two is activated and drives the driven gear to rotate through the drive gear, which in turn drives the switching plate to rotate 180 degrees through the rotating shaft, transferring the dispersion barrel from the loading station to the processing station. Finally, cylinder two drives the lifting plate to descend and place the dispersion barrel into the limiting seat under the gantry frame to ensure the stability of the barrel during the mixing process. This application realizes the automatic switching between the loading station and the processing station through the lifting and mixing component, and the automated loading and unloading of the dispersion barrel greatly reduces the burden of manual operation.

The lifting and mixing component 1 includes a gantry frame 101. A mounting plate 102 is fixedly installed at the top middle of the gantry frame 101, and a cylinder 103 is bolted to the top of the mounting plate 102. A rotary joint 104 is connected to the telescopic end of the cylinder 103, and a key shaft 105 is rotatably installed inside the rotary joint 104. A turbine blade 106 is coaxially fixed to the bottom end of the key shaft 105. The key shaft 105 is fitted with a driven pulley 107, and the mounting plate 102 is provided with a drive pulley 108 on the side. The drive pulley 108 is fixedly connected to the rotating end of the motor 109. The keyway inside the hole of the driven pulley 107 engages with the key protrusion on the outer circle of the key shaft 105. The outer circle of the driven pulley 107 is connected to the drive pulley 108 through a synchronous belt. The gantry frame 101 is fixedly installed on the top of one side of the base plate 2, and a limit seat 3 is installed on the bottom of one side of the base plate 2.

[0022] The specific operation is as follows: When the dispersion tank 5 containing raw materials is in the limiting seat 3, the motor 109 is activated and the driven pulley 107 is rotated through the synchronous belt sleeved on the outside of the drive pulley 108. Then, under the meshing action of the keyway in the hole of the driven pulley 107 and the key protrusion on the outer circle of the key shaft 105, the key shaft 105 is rotated. During the process of stirring and mixing the turbine blade 106 at the end of the key shaft 105 in the dispersion tank 5, the cylinder 103 pulls the key shaft 105 up and down while maintaining rotation through the telescopic end rotary joint 104, thereby driving the turbine blade 106 to fully mix the raw materials at different heights in the dispersion tank 5, thereby improving the dispersion and emulsification uniformity of the raw materials in the preparation of carotenoid microcapsules.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a transfer trolley 4 is provided on the other side of the base plate 2, and a dispersing bucket 5 is supported on the transfer trolley 4. A workstation switching assembly 6 is installed on the other side of the base plate 2. The workstation switching assembly 6 includes a base 601 fixedly installed at the bottom of the other side of the base plate 2. Guide sleeves 602 are fixedly installed around the top of the base 601, and a second cylinder 603 is fixedly installed in the middle of the base 601. The workstation switching assembly 6 also includes a lifting plate 604 fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the second cylinder 603. Guide rods 605 are fixedly connected around the bottom of the lifting plate 604, and the guide rods 605 are aligned with the corresponding positions. The guide sleeve 602 is limited and slidably engaged. The workstation switching assembly 6 also includes a second motor 606 bolted to the side of the lifting plate 604. The rotating end of the second motor 606 is fixedly connected to a drive gear 607, and the side end of the drive gear 607 is meshed with a driven gear ring 608. The workstation switching assembly 6 also includes a rotating shaft 609 coaxially fixed to the middle of the driven gear ring 608. The top of the rotating shaft 609 is coaxially fixed to a switching plate 610, and the two sides of the switching plate 610 are provided with connecting notches 611, and the distance between the side walls of the connecting notches 611 is smaller than the outer diameter of the edge of the dispersing barrel 5.

[0024] The specific operation is as follows: First, the dispersion barrel 5 containing the raw materials is moved by the transfer trolley 4 to the connecting notch 611 on the side of the switching plate 610 away from the lifting and mixing component 1. Then, the barrel edge of the dispersion barrel 5 is inserted into the connecting notch 611. Then, the cylinder 603 is activated and the lifting plate 604 is lifted, so that the dispersion barrel 5 leaves the transfer trolley 4. Next, the motor 606 is activated and the driven gear 607 drives the driven gear to rotate. Then, the rotating shaft 609 drives the switching plate 610 to rotate 180 degrees, transferring the dispersion barrel 5 in the loading station to the processing station. Finally, the cylinder 603 drives the lifting plate 604 to descend and put the dispersion barrel 5 into the limiting seat 3 under the gantry frame 101 to ensure the stability of the barrel during the mixing process. This application realizes the automatic switching between the loading station and the processing station through the lifting and mixing component 1, and the dispersion barrel 5 also greatly reduces the burden of manual operation through automated loading and unloading.

[0025] Working principle: First, the dispersion barrel 5 containing raw materials is moved by the transfer trolley 4 to the connecting notch 611 on the side of the switching plate 610 away from the lifting and mixing component 1. Then, the barrel edge of the dispersion barrel 5 is inserted into the connecting notch 611. Next, the second cylinder 603 is activated to drive the lifting plate 604 to lift, so that the dispersion barrel 5 leaves the transfer trolley 4. Then, the second motor 606 is activated and drives the driven gear 607 to rotate, which in turn drives the switching plate 610 to rotate 180 degrees through the rotating shaft 609, transferring the dispersion barrel 5 from the loading station to the processing station. Finally, the second cylinder 603 drives the lifting plate 604 to descend and place the dispersion barrel 5 into the limiting seat 3 under the gantry frame 101 to ensure the stability of the barrel during the mixing process. This application realizes the connection between the loading station and the processing station through the lifting and mixing component 1. The automatic switching of workstations and the automated loading and unloading of the dispersion tank 5 greatly reduce the burden of manual operation. When the dispersion tank 5 containing raw materials is in the limit seat 3, the motor 109 is activated and drives the driven pulley 107 to rotate through the synchronous belt sleeved on the outside of the drive pulley 108. Then, under the meshing action of the keyway in the hole of the driven pulley 107 and the key protrusion on the outer circle of the key shaft 105, the key shaft 105 is driven to rotate. During the mixing process of the turbine blade 106 at the end of the key shaft 105 in the dispersion tank 5, the cylinder 103 pulls the key shaft 105 up and down while maintaining rotation through the telescopic rotary joint 104, thereby driving the turbine blade 106 to fully mix the raw materials at different heights in the dispersion tank 5, improving the dispersion and emulsification uniformity of the raw materials in the preparation of carotenoid microcapsules.
