[0002] Traditional Chinese medicinal herbs such as Anemarrhena asphodeloides, mulberry leaves, and bitter melon contain various high-value-added complex saponins, making them important raw materials for pharmaceuticals and health products. Currently, the main industrial method for extracting active ingredients from these herbs involves pulverizing the materials using crushing equipment, followed by slurry extraction in an extraction tank. However, the simple stirring action in the extraction tank has limited effectiveness for herbs with dense cell structures and difficult-to-dissolve active ingredients, resulting in long extraction times and low extraction rates. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a compound saponin preparation and extraction device, which solves the problems of long extraction time and low extraction rate caused by the use of a single stirring blade in existing extraction tanks.

[0016] To better explain and facilitate understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present invention 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 invention, and not all embodiments. Various changes can be made to the implementation scheme as long as the effects of the present invention can be achieved.

[0018] Those skilled in the art can connect the components in this case sequentially. The specific connection and operation sequence should refer to the working principle described below. The detailed connection methods are well-known technologies in the field. The working principle and process are mainly described below.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the figure, this application proposes a compound saponin preparation and extraction device, including a tank 1 for holding a slurry of crushed Anemarrhena asphodeloides, mulberry leaves, and bitter melon, and a stirring shaft 9 disposed inside the tank 1. The stirring shaft 9 is driven to rotate by a motor and has blades at its bottom. Based on the above, in this embodiment, a pressure plate 5 is horizontally disposed inside the tank 1 and can be driven to move up and down inside the tank 1.

[0020] Furthermore, the aforementioned pressure plate 5 divides the inner cavity of the tank 1 into an upper cavity and a lower cavity, and several first through holes 10 are opened through the pressure plate 5. When the pressure plate 5 is raised and lowered, the slurry flows back and forth in the upper and lower cavities through the first through holes 10. When flowing through the first through holes 10, the slurry is forced to turbulently, shear, and knead, thereby accelerating the dissolution and diffusion of the effective components in the slurry and improving the extraction efficiency and extraction rate.

[0021] In addition, a second through hole 11 is provided in the center of the pressure plate 5 for the stirring shaft 9 to pass through, so as to ensure that the lifting and lowering movement of the pressure plate 5 and the rotational movement of the stirring shaft 9 do not interfere with each other.

[0022] Furthermore, a drive displacement component is provided on the tank body 1 to move the pressure plate 5 up and down. Specifically, the drive displacement component includes a hydraulic cylinder 2 located above the tank body 1 and a telescopic component located at the top of the inner cavity of the tank body 1. The hydraulic cylinder 2 is fixed to a fixed object, such as a bracket, and its output end is inserted into the inner cavity of the tank body 1, driving the telescopic component to move up and down, thereby driving the pressure plate 5 to move up and down.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the telescopic component in this embodiment includes tubes 4 that are vertically fixed on both sides above the inner cavity of the tank 1. A first rod 3 and a second rod 6 are respectively provided through the two tubes 4 in the axial direction. One end of the first rod 3 and the second rod 6 extending out of the tubes 4 is fixed to the pressure plate 5, and the other end of the first rod 3 is connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 2.

[0024] During implementation, the hydraulic cylinder 2 drives the first rod 3 to rise and fall inside the tube 4. At the same time, the second rod 6 is driven to rise and fall inside the tube 4 on the other side through the pressure plate 5, ensuring that the pressure plate 5 is balanced when it rises and falls.

[0025] In order to ensure the sealing between the first rod 3 and the second rod 6 and the tube 4, a sealing element 7 is provided at the connection between the bottom of the tube 4 and the first rod 3 and the second rod 6. The sealing element 7 is a sealing ring.

[0026] Furthermore, based on the above embodiments, this embodiment has an axially penetrating pipe 12 fixed within the first through hole 10 along the hole opening direction. The upper and / or lower ends of the pipe 12 extend out of the first through hole 10, and both ends are provided with bell nozzles 13. By setting the pipe 12, the flow of slurry is changed from the first through hole 10 to the pipe 12, increasing the flow path of the slurry and further accelerating the dissolution and diffusion of the effective components in the slurry. The bell nozzles 13 can capture more slurry before entering the pipe 12, and can disperse the slurry in a diffuse manner when flowing out, further accelerating the dissolution and diffusion of the effective components in the slurry, and improving the extraction efficiency and extraction rate.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the pressure plate 5 is provided with a plurality of vibrating rods 8 located in the lower cavity. Each vibrating rod 8 includes a base rod 81 fixed to the pressure plate 5. The bottom of the base rod 81 is connected to a free rod 82 via a spring 83, and a vibrator 85 is provided at the top of the free rod 82. When the vibrator 85 is working, its vibration force is transmitted to the free rod 82, causing the free rod 82 to vibrate on the spring 83. When the pressure plate 5 moves up and down reciprocally, the vibration waves of the free rod 82 are transmitted into the slurry, further improving the dissolution rate and extraction rate of the effective components in the slurry.

[0028] In addition, a corrugated sleeve 84 is fitted on the outside of the spring 83. The two ends of the corrugated sleeve 84 are fixed to the base rod 81 and the free rod 82 respectively, which increases the protection of the vibrator 85.

[0029] It should be noted that the axial length of the vibrating rod 8 is A, the axial length of the first rod 3 and the second rod 6 is B, and the axial length of the stirring shaft 9 is C, where A + B < C. This is to ensure that the vibrating rod 8 does not contact the blades at the bottom of the stirring shaft 9 when the first rod 3 and the second rod 6 descend to their lowest point.

[0030] During operation, pulverized materials such as Anemarrhena asphodeloides, mulberry leaves, and bitter melon are mixed with solvent to form a slurry, which is then pumped into tank 1. The motor is started, driving the stirring shaft 9 and its bottom blades to rotate. The hydraulic cylinder 2 is activated, and its output end pushes and pulls the first rod 3, causing it to move vertically downwards and upwards reciprocally within the tube 4, resulting in the pressure plate 5 descending and rising accordingly. At this time, the pressure plate 5 squeezes the slurry in the upper or lower cavity, forcing the slurry to be sprayed at high speed through the tube 12 into the opposing cavity. The slurry generates shear and turbulence, physically tearing the material particles, accelerating the rupture of cell walls and the dissolution of effective components. Simultaneously, the vibrator 85 on the vibrating rod 8 is activated. The high-frequency vibration generated by the vibrator 85 is directly transmitted to the interior of the slurry through the free rod 82, causing the slurry in the lower cavity to be stirred by the blades and vibrated by the free rod, accelerating the dissolution and diffusion of effective components in the slurry, and improving the extraction efficiency and extraction rate.

[0031] 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.
