Device for extracting plant essential oil

Abstract

The invention discloses a device for extracting plant essential oil. A distillation step, a cooling step and a separation step are integrated; and the device comprises an electric distilling pot, a steam condenser and an oil-water separator, wherein the oil-water separator is dumbbell-shaped and comprises a conical essential oil collector positioned on the top of the oil-water separator, a hydrolat collector positioned at the bottom of the oil-water separator and a cylindrical essential oil collection display neck; the electric distilling pot is communicated with a steam condenser by a mixed steam transmission tube; the steam condenser is communicated with the upper part of the essential oil collector by a mixed condensation water output tube; and the other end of a mixed liquid backflow tube is communicated with the mixed steam transmission tube. By adopting the device, three-to-one integrated design combination of the distillation, the cooling and the separation, so that the whole machine is reasonable in process, stable in structure and convenient to move, can realize disposable material input to produce finished products of hydrolat and essential oil so as to adapt to multiple occasions, and is particularly suitable for health maintenance and leisure clubs, teaching research and development institutions and family.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plant essential oil extraction device integrating distillation, cooling and separation, which can distill and extract plant essential oil from plants with plant essential oil at one time. Background technique [0002] The traditional plant essential oil distillation and extraction device is composed of a split steam generator (or an industrial steam source) still, a cooler, an oil-water separator and some connecting pipes. The connecting pipe fittings in various parts are messy, and the application occasions are limited. Due to the long pipeline caused by the independent disposal of each component, the essential oil condenses in the pipeline, resulting in a low oil yield; and it is inconvenient to move, most of them do not have an oil-water separator, and the oil-water separation is performed by a manual separatory funnel outside the body. It is used in factories and cannot be used in health care, leisure clubs, scientific r...

[0002] The traditional plant essential oil distillation and extraction device is composed of a split steam generator (or an industrial steam source) still, a cooler, an oil-water separator and some connecting pipes. The connecting pipe fittings in various parts are messy, and the use occasions are limited

Due to the long pipeline caused by the independent disposal of each component, the essential oil condenses in the pipeline, resulting in a low oil yield; and it is inconvenient to move, most of them do not have an oil-water separator, and the oil-water separation is performed by a manual separatory funnel outside the body. It is used in factories and cannot be used in health care, leisure clubs, scientific research units and families. The cooling method is mostly connected by tap water hoses, which is not only cumbersome, but also wastes water. It cannot be used in places without tap water, and its promotion is greatly restricted; the cooling temperature is not high Stable, the cooling effect is not good, and the separator is too rough, the oil-water separation effect is not good, and the oil yield is low

Moreover, the devices in various parts are connected by flexible hoses, which have no fixed shape, are easily disturbed by external factors, and have certain defects in stability, reliability, and aesthetics.
