Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crushing technology, specifically a plant crusher for cleaning agents. Background Technology

[0002] With the deepening of environmental protection concepts, green and natural cleaning agents have become the mainstream trend in the market. Cleaning agents made from plant-based raw materials, such as soapberry, soapberry, and mugwort, are rich in natural saponins, flavonoids, polyphenols, and other active ingredients. They possess core advantages such as cleaning and stain removal, antibacterial and deodorizing properties, and gentleness without irritation. Furthermore, they are easily biodegradable and environmentally friendly, and have gradually replaced chemically synthesized raw materials, becoming the core component of high-end green cleaning agents. The cleaning efficacy and antibacterial activity of these plant-based raw materials depend not only on the content of their own active ingredients but also directly on the retention rate of active ingredients during the pulverization process. The complete retention of active ingredients is key to ensuring the product's cleaning and antibacterial effects.

[0003] However, existing pulverizers have significant limitations when handling such raw materials: traditional pulverizers lack specialized temperature control designs, and the intense friction and collision between the high-speed rotating metal hammers and the material, as well as between the material and the chamber walls, generates a large amount of heat during the pulverizing process. This causes the internal temperature of the pulverizing chamber to rise rapidly to over 50°C, which can easily lead to the decomposition of saponins and the oxidation and deactivation of flavonoids, directly weakening the core functions of the raw material. At the same time, the pulverizing structure of existing equipment mostly relies on the impact of a single hammer, resulting in a single material crushing path. This not only leads to uneven particle size distribution and coarse particles that can cause detergent sedimentation and clogging of nozzles, but also results in problems such as insufficient pulverization in certain areas and material accumulation, seriously affecting production efficiency and the stability of finished product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model aims to provide a plant pulverizer for detergents. Through a synergistic structural design, it specifically solves existing problems: It employs a cylindrical pulverizing chamber with a dual-chamber structure. The external temperature-controlled chamber is circulated with a temperature-controlled medium through an upper inlet and a lower outlet, allowing for real-time dissipation of frictional heat generated during pulverization, preventing excessive internal temperature from deactivating active ingredients such as saponins and flavonoids. Simultaneously, the pulverizing shaft drives rectangular pulverizing hammers mounted on the shaft to rotate. Adjacent hammers are separated and positioned by bushings to ensure uniform force distribution. The rotating hammers and the evenly distributed auxiliary crushing grooves on the inner edge of the pulverizing chamber create a synergistic impact-collision crushing process. This, combined with the grinding discs with annular shallow grooves and convex ridges on the inner sides of both ends of the pulverizing chamber, further grinds the material, effectively improving particle size uniformity and preventing localized accumulation and insufficient pulverization. Finally, the pulverized material that meets the requirements is discharged through the bottom outlet, perfectly meeting the pulverization needs of plant raw materials for detergents.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a plant shredder for cleaning agents, comprising a frame and a drive motor, characterized in that: a shredding chamber is fixed at the upper end of the frame, a shredding shaft is provided through the interior of the shredding chamber, multiple sets of spaced mounting discs are provided in the middle of the shredding shaft, multiple sets of mounting shafts are inserted and fixed between the mounting discs, the mounting shafts are evenly distributed in a ring around the circumference of the mounting discs, multiple sets of shredding hammers are sleeved on the mounting shafts, and adjacent sets of shredding hammers are separated and positioned by bushings; a feeding chamber is fixed at the upper end of the shredding chamber.

[0008] Preferably, the grinding chamber is cylindrical in shape and has a double-chamber structure, including an internal grinding chamber and an external temperature control chamber; grinding blades are fixedly provided on the inner sides of the left and right ends of the grinding chamber, and the end faces of the grinding blades are provided with shallow grooves and protrusions distributed in annularly.

[0014] Preferably, multiple sets of auxiliary crushing grooves are evenly distributed on the inner edge of the crushing chamber.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] This invention possesses significant practical value and technical advantages, perfectly adapting to the specific pulverization requirements of plant-based raw materials for detergents. Its core beneficial effects are as follows: Through the dual-chamber pulverizing chamber design, the temperature-controlled chamber can be circulated with a temperature-controlled medium via the inlet and outlet, effectively dissipating the frictional heat generated during pulverization and controlling the internal temperature of the pulverizing chamber. This prevents active ingredients such as saponins and flavonoids from decomposing or oxidizing and becoming inactive due to high temperatures, maximizing the preservation of the raw materials' core cleaning and antibacterial functions. Simultaneously, the rectangular pulverizing hammers are separated and positioned by bushings, ensuring uniform force during rotation. This synergizes with the auxiliary crushing grooves on the inner edge of the pulverizing chamber, and, combined with the grinding discs with shallow grooves and convex ridges at both ends, achieves secondary grinding, significantly improving the uniformity of material particle size. This avoids the problems of coarse particle sedimentation and fine particle agglomeration, ensuring sufficient subsequent dissolution and formula stability. The overall structural design is simple and reasonable, and operation is convenient. It ensures both finished product quality and improves production continuity, significantly enhancing the equipment's adaptability and practicality for plant-based raw materials in detergents.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The following will refer to the appendix in the example of this utility model. Figures 1-5 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0024] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a plant shredder for cleaning agents, including a frame 1 and a drive motor 2. The frame 1 is made of carbon steel welded together to support the weight of the entire equipment and ensure stability during operation. The drive motor 2 is fixed to one side of the frame 1 by bolts and is a variable frequency motor, which can adjust the output speed according to the characteristics of the raw materials.

[0025] The upper end of the frame 1 is fixed with a pulverizing chamber 3 via a flange. The pulverizing chamber 3 is made of 316L stainless steel and is cylindrical in shape, which ensures structural strength and avoids contamination of plant materials. The pulverizing chamber 3 adopts a double-chamber structure, with an internal pulverizing chamber 31 and an external temperature control chamber 32. The upper end of the temperature control chamber 32 is provided with a liquid inlet 321 and the lower end is provided with a liquid outlet 322. During use, an ethanol aqueous solution of -5℃ to 5℃ is introduced through the liquid inlet 321 as a temperature control medium and circulated back through the liquid outlet 322 to remove the heat generated during the pulverizing process in real time and control the temperature inside the pulverizing chamber 31 to ≤35℃.

[0026] The crushing chamber 3 is equipped with a crushing shaft 4 running through it. The connection between the crushing shaft 4 and the crushing chamber 3 is supported by a bearing. The drive motor 2 and the crushing shaft 4 are connected by a belt pulley.

[0027] Multiple sets of spaced mounting discs 5 are welded and fixed in the middle of the crushing shaft 4. Multiple sets of mounting shafts 6 are fixed between the mounting discs 5 by plugging. The mounting shafts 6 are evenly distributed in a ring around the circumference of the mounting discs 5 to ensure balanced force. Multiple sets of crushing hammers 7 are sleeved on the mounting shafts 6. The crushing hammers 7 are rectangular and made of food-grade stainless steel. Adjacent sets of crushing hammers 7 are separated and positioned by bushings 10. The bushings 10 are made of polytetrafluoroethylene to avoid friction and wear between the hammers and the mounting shafts.

[0028] Grinding discs 33 are fixed to the inner sides of the left and right ends of the crushing chamber 3 by bolts. The end face of the grinding discs 33 is provided with shallow groove protrusions 331 distributed in an annular pattern for secondary grinding of materials. Multiple sets of auxiliary crushing grooves 311 are evenly distributed on the inner edge of the crushing chamber 31, which work together with the rotating crushing hammers 7 to form a synergistic crushing effect of impact and collision.

[0029] The upper end of the crushing chamber 3 is fixed with a feeding chamber 8, which is funnel-shaped to facilitate the input of raw materials; the bottom of the crushing chamber 3 is provided with a discharge port 9 to facilitate the discharge of crushed materials.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] First, before starting the equipment, a low-temperature circulating medium is introduced through the inlet 321 of the temperature control chamber 32 of the grinding chamber 3. After circulating through the temperature control chamber 32, the medium flows back from the outlet 322, which removes the heat generated during the subsequent grinding process in real time, and stabilizes the temperature in the grinding chamber 31 at ≤35℃ in advance, providing a low-temperature environment for the preservation of active ingredients.

[0032] Subsequently, cleaning agents such as soapberry and soapberry are fed into the crushing chamber 31 through the feed hopper 8. The drive motor 2 is started, and the power is transmitted to the crushing shaft 4 through the belt pulley assembly, which drives the crushing shaft 4 and the mounting plate 5 and mounting shaft 6 in the middle to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rectangular crushing hammer 7 on the mounting shaft 6 to rotate at high speed.

[0033] The rotating crushing hammer 7 creates a high-frequency impact on the falling raw material, causing it to be initially crushed. The material after initial crushing then impacts the auxiliary crushing troughs 311, which are evenly distributed on the inner edge of the crushing chamber 31, under the action of centrifugal force. The trough structure further refines the particle size through collision, avoiding local accumulation of material.

[0034] Throughout the pulverization process, the temperature control chamber 32 continuously dissipates frictional heat through the circulating medium, always keeping the temperature inside the pulverization chamber 31 below the critical temperature for the deactivation of active ingredients, thus preventing the decomposition and oxidation of components such as saponins and flavonoids. Finally, the uniform powdered material after multi-stage synergistic pulverization is discharged through the discharge port 9 at the bottom of the pulverization chamber 3, completing the pulverization operation of plant raw materials with cleanliness, intact antibacterial active ingredients, and uniform particle size.

[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
