Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cosmetic preparation, and more specifically to a process for refining natural plant essential oil as a cosmetic additive. Background Art

[0002] Essential oils are highly volatile and have small molecules. They are easily absorbed by the human body and can quickly penetrate the organs in the human body. These highly volatile substances can be absorbed by the nasal mucosal tissue and enter the body, sending messages directly to the brain. Through the brain's limbic system, they regulate emotions and physiological functions of the body. However, due to the volatility of plant essential oils, the essential oils will be dispersed in the air when separated from the plants, resulting in many impurities that are not easy to separate when extracting the essential oils, making purification difficult.

[0023] A process for extracting natural plant essential oil as a cosmetic additive, the process comprising the following steps: step 1: placing the plant flowers, leaves and stems in a hot environment; step 2: crushing the plant flowers, leaves and stems to obtain juice; step 3: volatilizing the juice, escaping and entering the extraction solution through guidance; step 4: multi-stage extraction to absorb impurities and obtain essential oil with higher purity. The essential oil obtained through the above steps is easier to remove impurities.

[0024] The process of accelerating the volatilization of essential oils can be referred to Figure 2 An example working process:

[0025] The thermal environment temperature is between 50°C and 65°C. Before placing the plant flowers, leaves, stems, etc. containing plant essential oils into the device, the environment in which the plant flowers, leaves, stems, etc. containing plant essential oils are located is heated by an external heating device. Due to the volatile nature of essential oils, an increase in ambient temperature will result in a faster volatilization rate and higher volatilization efficiency, causing more essential oils to evaporate from the plant flowers, leaves, and stems. The essential oils can be collected by collecting gases in the environment.

[0026] The sealing process can be referred to Figure 3 An example working process:

[0027] Since essential oils are highly volatile, they need to be collected in a closed space, so the device is provided with a closed collection box, which includes a circulation tube 11, a feed tube 12 and a sealed chamber 13. The feed tube 12 is arranged on the sealed chamber 13 and is used to add plant flowers, leaves and stems through the feed tube 12. The feed tube 12 is used as a guide. The circulation tube 11 is fixedly connected to the left side of 13 and is provided with a valve. After the valve is closed, the sealing performance inside the sealed chamber 13 can be guaranteed. The upper part of the sealed chamber 13 is arranged in a dome shape, which can liquefy the evaporated water vapor in the upper part of the sealed chamber 13. In this way, it can be ensured that the essential oil substances that are easier to vaporize are separated from the water vapor, thereby better ensuring the content of essential oil in the gas in the environment.

[0028] And in the process of extraction, some water-soluble substances will also volatilize. When the water vapor is liquefied in the dome of the sealed chamber 13, some water-soluble substances can be absorbed and dissolved along with the liquefaction of the water vapor, thereby removing some impurities, which can reduce a certain degree of operational difficulty in the subsequent purification process.

[0029] The splash control panel can refer to Figure 4 An example working process:

[0030] Since the material splashes when crushing the flowers, leaves and stems of the plants, in order to prevent this phenomenon, the device is also provided with a splash plate 21, a hydraulic rod 22, a connecting frame 23 and a connecting sleeve 24, the connecting sleeve 24 is fixed on the connecting frame 23, the middle part of the connecting sleeve 24 is fixed with a feed pipe 12, the connecting sleeve 24 is fixed in position by the feed pipe 12, and the position of the connecting frame 23 is also fixed accordingly, the four corners of the bottom of the connecting frame 23 are fixed with hydraulic rods 22, and the bottoms of the multiple hydraulic rods 22 are fixed with splash plates 21, the splash plates 21 are provided with openings, and the splash plates 21 are provided with openings. The opening corresponds to the position of the connecting sleeve 24 in the vertical plane, and is used to install the feed pipe 12. The up and down movement of the splash plate 21 can be controlled by changing the length of the multiple hydraulic rods 22. The splash plate 21 is slidably connected to the rolling chamber 31 and is sealed. It can ensure as much as possible that during the rolling process of plant flowers, leaves and stems, the material will not splash out of the processing area due to pressure, and ensure that the material is more fully rolled, so that the juice in the plant flowers, leaves and stems is fully exposed to the air, which is conducive to the volatilization of the essential oil in the juice.

[0031] Since the flowers, leaves and stems of plants will become fluffy after entering, the rolling component cannot act on the flowers, leaves and stems of plants, resulting in the phenomenon that processing cannot be carried out. Therefore, a plurality of protruding lines are provided at the bottom of the splash plate 21 to facilitate the compression of the added flowers, leaves and stems of plants, so that the rolling component can fully contact the flowers, leaves and stems of plants with the rolling component after the splash plate 21 moves downward to the extreme position, thereby ensuring that the rolling component acts on the flowers, leaves and stems of plants for rolling processing. The rolling component includes a driving gear 41, a driven gear 42, a transmission rod 43, a driving bevel gear 44, a rolling outer ring 51, a connecting inner ring 52, a driving component 53 and an arc limiting outer shell 54.

[0032] The rolling room part can refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 An example working process:

[0033] During the rolling process, it is necessary to reduce the distance between the rolling assembly and the plant flowers, leaves and stems as much as possible. Therefore, the device is provided with a rolling chamber 31, a stabilizing column 32 and an interruption ring 33. The stabilizing column 32 and the interruption ring 33 are both fixedly connected in the rolling chamber 31. The stabilizing column 32 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the rolling chamber 31 as a limiting position of the rolling assembly, and can also provide a stable effect for the rolling assembly. The interruption ring 33 is fixedly connected to the rolling chamber 31. The interruption ring 33 is located between the stabilizing column 32 and the side wall of the rolling chamber 31. The interruption ring 33 is used as a protruding part to separate the plant flowers, leaves and stems into two parts for dispersed rolling, and the juice produced during the rolling flows in the two spaces separated by the interruption ring 33 for volatilization.

[0034] The rolling room part can refer to Figure 5 An example working process:

[0035] The juice generated during the crushing process of plant flowers, leaves and stems is in a hot environment, and the essential oil in the juice will evaporate. Therefore, a plurality of fine vents are provided on the side wall of the crushing chamber 31 for ventilation to volatilize the essential oil and maintain normal air pressure in the crushing chamber 31, so as not to affect the normal volatilization of the essential oil and ensure the volatilization rate of the essential oil.

[0036] The synchronization control part can refer to Figure 6 and Fig.10 An example working process:

[0037] The control part of the rolling assembly includes a driving gear 41, a driven gear 42, a transmission rod 43 and a driving bevel gear 44. The driving gear 41 and the two driven gears 42 are driven by a toothed belt. After the driving gear 41 is driven by an external power source, the two transmission rods 43 can be driven to rotate. The bottom of the two transmission rods 43 are fixed with driving bevel gears 44. As the two transmission rods 43 rotate, the two driving bevel gears 44 rotate. The driving part is arranged on the upper part of the interrupt ring 33, and the lower parts of the two transmission rods 43 rotate in two connecting sleeves. The two connecting sleeves are arranged on the upper part of the interrupt ring 33 and just in contact, which can limit the running trajectory and rolling stratification.

[0038] The drive part can refer to Figure 2 and Fig.10 An example working process:

[0039] During the crushing process, continuous rotation is required to crush and break the flowers, leaves and stems of the plants, so the device is provided with a fixed frame 71 and a driving assembly 81, the fixed frame 71 and the driving assembly 81 are fixedly connected, the driving assembly 81 is a motor and a connecting shaft, the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the motor output shaft, the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 71, and the fixed frame 71 is rotatably connected to two transmission rods 43 and a driving gear 41, which can drive the fixed frame 71 to rotate after being driven by the motor in the driving assembly 81, and the fixed frame 71 drives the two transmission rods 43 to rotate around the axis of the connecting shaft, so that the two connecting sleeves can make a circular motion to crush the flowers, leaves and stems of the added plants.

[0040] The implementation of the rolling assembly can refer to Figure 8 , 9 10 to perform an exemplary working process:

[0041] When the two driving bevel gears 44 rotate, since the multiple driving components 53 are respectively engaged with the two driving bevel gears 44 for transmission, and the multiple arc limiting shells 54 are respectively slidably connected to the rolling chamber 31 and the stabilizing column 32, the multiple arc limiting shells 54 can be restricted to prevent the multiple arc limiting shells 54 from rotating, so the multiple driving components 53 can rotate, and the multiple driving components 53 can drive the rolling outer ring 51 fixedly connected thereto to rotate, and then drive the multiple extrusion tooth parts to rotate.

[0042] The extrusion teeth part can refer to Fig. 9 An example working process:

[0043] The device also includes a plurality of squeezing teeth 61 fixedly connected to a plurality of rolling outer rings 51, and the plurality of squeezing teeth 61 are spiral-shaped. As the implementing cylinder parts of the plurality of rolling components rotate, the plurality of squeezing teeth 61 can rotate to squeeze and cut the flowers, leaves and stems of the added plants. Since the contact area between the plurality of squeezing teeth 61 and the flowers, leaves and stems of the plants is small, the pressure during contact can be increased, so that the flowers, leaves and stems of the plants are squeezed more fully, and the juice is fully squeezed out of the flowers, leaves and stems of the plants.
