DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6, the present invention provides a technical solution: a traditional Chinese medicine extraction device for cosmetics, including a facial steamer base 1, a steam nozzle 2 and a water tank 3. The water tank 3 is arranged on the top of the facial steamer base 1. The steam nozzle 2 is rotatably connected to one end of the top of the facial steamer base 1. Both sides of the facial steamer base 1 are fixedly connected with a housing 4. Inside one housing 4, a polar solvent holding cylinder 5 is movably connected. Inside the polar solvent holding cylinder 5, a water pump one 6 is installed. The water outlet end of the water pump one 6 is provided with a connecting pipe one 7. Inside the other housing 4, a non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8 is movably connected. Inside the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8, a water pump two 9 is installed. The water outlet end of the water pump two 9 is provided with a connecting pipe two 10. The other ends of the connecting pipe one 7 and the connecting pipe two 10 are jointly provided with a solvent mixing cylinder 11. The solvent mixing cylinder 11 is located above the water tank 3. One end of the facial steamer base 1 is installed with a control panel 12. The control panel 12 is respectively in signal connection with the water pump one 6 and the water pump two 9.

[0028] Inside the facial steamer base 1, there are also components such as heating elements, which are prior art and will not be elaborated here. A controller is set inside the control panel 12, and specific data can be displayed on the control panel 12. When in use, first place the facial steamer base 1 on a suitable tabletop, then add polar solvents (such as pure water or alcohols, etc.) into the polar solvent holding cylinder 5, and add non-polar solvents (vegetable oils or alkanes, etc.) into the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8. It is possible to add polar solvents (such as pure water or alcohols, etc.) alone for heating extraction, or add non-polar solvents (vegetable oils or alkanes, etc.) alone for heating extraction, or add polar solvents and non-polar solvents in a certain proportion for heating extraction. Then connect the connecting pipe one 7 and the connecting pipe two 10 to the corresponding positions respectively, put the Chinese herbal medicines or flower petals to be extracted into the water tank 3, control the water pump one 6 to start through the control panel 12, pump the polar solvent from the polar solvent holding cylinder 5 into the solvent mixing cylinder 11, or control the water pump two 9 to start, pump the non-polar solvent from the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8 into the solvent mixing cylinder 11. After being fully mixed in the solvent mixing cylinder 11, put the mixed solvent into the water tank 3. After being heated and evaporated by the heating element inside the facial steamer base 1, the steam is evenly sprayed on the user's face through the steam nozzle 2 to help the skin absorb these active ingredients.

[0029] Furthermore, an electric heater 13 is installed inside the solvent mixing cylinder 11. The electric heater 13 is in signal connection with the control panel 12. A heat preservation sleeve 24 is arranged outside the solvent mixing cylinder 11. Two stirring paddles 14 are rotatably connected to the top of the solvent mixing cylinder 11. The two stirring paddles 14 are respectively located on both sides of the solvent mixing cylinder 11. The bottom of the solvent mixing cylinder 11 is communicated with a water outlet pipe 15. The water outlet pipe 15 is located inside the water tank 3.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 4, the stirring paddle 14 is driven by a motor, and the motor can be controlled through the controller in the control panel 12. During use, the two stirring paddles 14 are controlled to rotate through the control panel 12, and the electric heater 13 can also be controlled to heat the mixed solvent in the solvent mixing cylinder 11, ensuring that the polar solvent and the non-polar solvent can be mixed more evenly and reducing phase separation.

[0031] Furthermore, a placement hopper 16 with holes is movably connected inside the water tank 3. The top of the placement hopper 16 is movably connected with a lid 17. The solvent mixing cylinder 11 is embedded on the lid 17, and the placement hopper 16 is snap-connected inside the water tank 3.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 5 , the lid 17 and the placement hopper 16 can be connected together by a threaded connection or a snap connection. The placement hopper 16 is used to place Chinese herbal medicines or petals and other things containing active ingredients that need to be extracted. During use, the Chinese herbal medicines are placed in the placement hopper 16, then the placement hopper 16 is placed into the water tank 3, and then the lid 17 is covered on the top of the placement hopper 16. In this way, the solvent mixing cylinder 11 can be located at the top of the placement hopper 16, facilitating the mixed solvent to fall into the water tank 3 and the placement hopper 16.

[0033] Furthermore, a solenoid valve 18 is installed on the water outlet pipe 15, and the solenoid valve 18 is signal-connected to the control panel 12.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , when the solvent in the solvent mixing cylinder 11 is mixed evenly, the solenoid valve 18 is controlled to open through the control panel 12, and then the mixed solvent in the solvent mixing cylinder 11 can be put into the water tank 3 through the water outlet pipe 15.

[0035] Furthermore, a collecting hopper 19 is arranged at the end of the water outlet pipe 15, and a number of through holes 20 are formed at the top of the collecting hopper 19.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 4 , the mixed solvent can fall into the collecting hopper 19 through the water outlet pipe 15. After reaching a certain level, it flows out through the through holes 20 and is evenly sprinkled on the Chinese herbal medicines.

[0037] Furthermore, an annular inflatable pad 21 is installed between the collecting hopper 19 and the water outlet pipe 15.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , the middle of the annular inflatable pad 21 is hollowed out to facilitate the passage of the solvent. The annular inflatable pad 21 can move up and down within a small range. When the collecting hopper 19 collects a certain amount of solvent, the annular inflatable pad 21 is stretched, causing the collecting hopper 19 to move downward and abut against the Chinese herbal medicines, which can play a certain squeezing role.

[0039] Further, a cosolvent placement tube 22 is connected to the top of the solvent mixing cylinder 11.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 4 , the cosolvent can be added into the solvent mixing cylinder 11 through the cosolvent placement tube 22, which can further promote the uniform mixing of the polar solvent and the non-polar solvent.

[0041] Further, an observation port 23 is constructed on the outer side of the housing 4, and the observation port 23 is opposite to the scale lines of the polar solvent holding cylinder 5 and the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 , the scale of the polar solvent holding cylinder 5 and the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8 can be observed through the observation port 23, which is convenient for mastering the amount of the solvent in the cylinder.

[0043] Further, both ends of the first connecting tube 7 are detachably connected to the polar solvent holding cylinder 5 and the solvent mixing cylinder 11 respectively.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , in this way, it is more convenient to disassemble or add polar solvent, and it is also more convenient to assemble.

[0045] Further, both ends of the second connecting tube 10 are detachably connected to the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8 and the solvent mixing cylinder 11 respectively.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , in this way, it is more convenient to disassemble or add non-polar solvent, and it is also more convenient to assemble

[0047] Working principle: When the Chinese medicine extraction device for cosmetics is in use, first place the facial steamer base 1 on a suitable tabletop, then add a polar solvent (such as pure water or alcohols, etc.) into the polar solvent holding cylinder 5, add a non-polar solvent (vegetable oil or alkane, etc.) into the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8, then connect the first connecting tube 7 between the polar solvent holding cylinder 5 and the solvent mixing cylinder 11, connect the second connecting tube 10 between the non-polar solvent holding cylinder 8 and the solvent mixing cylinder 11, put the Chinese herbal medicine or petals to be extracted into the placement hopper 16, then put the placement hopper 16 into the water tank 3, and then cover the lid 17 on the top of the placement hopper 16.

[0048] Turn on the switch button on the facial steamer base 1, and control the first water pump 6 to start through the control panel 12, pumping the polar solvent from the polar solvent storage cylinder 5 into the solvent mixing cylinder 11, or control the second water pump 9 to start, pumping the non-polar solvent from the non-polar solvent storage cylinder 8 into the solvent mixing cylinder 11. It is also possible to start the first water pump 6 and the second water pump 9 simultaneously, pumping the polar solvent and the non-polar solvent into the solvent mixing cylinder 11 in a certain proportion. At the same time, the control panel 12 controls the two stirring paddles 14 to rotate, or controls the electric heater 13 to heat, heating the mixed solvent in the solvent mixing cylinder 11 to ensure that the polar solvent and the non-polar solvent can be mixed more evenly, reducing phase separation. Or add the co-solvent into the solvent mixing cylinder 11 from the co-solvent placement pipe 22. When the solvent in the solvent mixing cylinder 11 is mixed evenly, control the solenoid valve 18 to open through the control panel 12, and the mixed solvent is discharged into the collection hopper 19 through the water outlet pipe 15. After reaching a certain level, it flows out through the through hole 20 and is evenly sprinkled on the Chinese herbal medicine. During this process, the annular inflatable pad 21 can move up and down in a small range. When the annular inflatable pad 21 is stretched, the collection hopper 19 can move downward and abut against the Chinese herbal medicine, which can play a certain squeezing role. After being heated and evaporated by the heating element in the facial steamer base 1, the steam is evenly sprayed on the user's face through the steam nozzle 2 to help the skin absorb these active ingredients.

[0049] The standard parts used in this embodiment can be directly purchased from the market. For the non-standard structural components described in the specification and drawings, they can also be processed without doubt according to the existing technical common sense. At the same time, the connection methods of each component adopt the mature conventional means in the existing technology, and the machines, parts and equipment all adopt the conventional models in the existing technology, so no specific description will be made here.

[0050] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
