Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically to an environmentally friendly herbal incense with disinfection and sterilization functions. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional household incense and air fresheners are mostly made from wood chips, wood powder, and other similar materials, with added synthetic fragrances, combustion aids, and adhesives. These products produce large amounts of smoke and fine particulate matter (such as PM2.5) during combustion, causing secondary indoor air pollution. The irritating odors and potentially harmful chemicals they release can also negatively impact the respiratory system, posing health risks with long-term use. Furthermore, these products have limited functionality, only temporarily masking odors with a strong fragrance; they cannot fundamentally purify the air or eliminate pathogens, failing to meet the needs of modern families for a healthy living environment, especially during flu season and other periods of high respiratory disease prevalence.

[0003] In recent years, some incense products using traditional Chinese medicine ingredients have emerged, attempting to achieve air purification through the properties of natural plants. However, most of these products are still at the stage of simply crushing and mixing the herbs before directly molding them, resulting in a relatively crude manufacturing process. Because they lack necessary biochemical treatment, the effective components in the herbs are not fully released and transformed, leading to limited purification efficiency, particularly insufficient effectiveness against pathogens such as atypical influenza viruses and the novel coronavirus. Furthermore, the aroma evaporates quickly and lacks persistence, resulting in an overall unsatisfactory effect.

[0004] Therefore, developing a traditional Chinese medicine fragrance product that can effectively purify the air, is environmentally friendly and healthy, and has a long-lasting fragrance is of positive significance for improving indoor environmental quality and reducing the risk of pathogenic microorganism transmission. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to solve the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides an environmentally friendly herbal incense with disinfection and sterilization functions.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution: an environmentally friendly herbal incense with disinfection and sterilization function, made from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 10-60 parts of Atractylodes lancea, 10-20 parts of Angelica dahurica, 10-20 parts of Acorus tatarinowii, 10-20 parts of Solidago virgaurea, 12-16 parts of Ulmus pumila bark, 3-7 parts of clove, 3-7 parts of sandalwood, 3-7 parts of costus root, 2-7 parts of agarwood, 2-7 parts of cinnamon, 2-7 parts of dried tangerine peel, 5-10 parts of honeysuckle, 1-5 parts of Asarum heterotropoides, and 1-5 parts of Artemisia argyi.

[0007] This formula system achieves multi-dimensional scientific optimization and synergistic effects. Compared with existing technologies, it constructs a three-dimensional functional system with "disinfection and sterilization as the core, and antibacterial and antiviral effects, aromatic purification, and qi-regulating and health-promoting effects as synergies." Specifically, while inheriting the core effects of Atractylodes lancea and Artemisia argyi in drying dampness, killing insects, and sterilizing, it introduces Lonicera japonica to significantly enhance its broad-spectrum antibacterial and antiviral capabilities; it adds Angelica dahurica, Asarum heterotropoides, and Acorus tatarinowii, which work synergistically to relieve exterior syndromes, dispel cold, clear nasal passages, and dispel wind and dampness, not only strengthening the antibacterial foundation but also expanding the health-preserving dimension of preventing colds and respiratory infections; the addition of Citrus reticulata peel has both qi-regulating and stomach-soothing and antibacterial effects, and its volatile oil components have a more mellow aroma after fermentation. Furthermore, replacing pure elm powder with elm bark, which has both medicinal and adhesive properties, improves product purity. By optimizing the proportions of classic fragrance ingredients such as agarwood, sandalwood, and cloves, and adding warming medicinal herbs like cinnamon, a rich, mellow, and long-lasting natural aroma is created through bio-fermentation. This avoids the smoky and pungent smell of traditional burning products, achieving a comprehensive improvement in efficacy, environmental friendliness, and sensory experience. In one specific embodiment, it is made from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 30-50 parts of Atractylodes lancea, 12-18 parts of Angelica dahurica, 12-18 parts of Acorus tatarinowii, 12-18 parts of Solidago virgaurea, 13-15 parts of Ulmus pumila bark, 4-6 parts of clove, 4-6 parts of sandalwood, 4-6 parts of Aucklandia lappa, 3-5 parts of Aquilaria sinensis, 3-5 parts of cinnamon, 3-5 parts of dried tangerine peel, 6-8 parts of Lonicera japonica, 2-4 parts of Asarum heterotropoides, and 2-4 parts of Artemisia argyi.

[0008] An environmentally friendly herbal incense with disinfection and sterilization functions is prepared by the following steps: crushing and mixing the raw materials and then fermenting them.

[0009] In one specific implementation, the fermentation process is a bio-fermentation process using enzymes and microorganisms.

[0010] In one specific implementation, the fermentation process employs a single strain or a mixture of strains for directional fermentation.

[0011] In one specific implementation, the product is in the form of incense sticks or incense coils.

[0012] The effects of each drug component in this technical solution are explained. Atractylodes lancea In this technical solution, Atractylodes lancea is established as the principal herb, its core function being "drying dampness and strengthening the spleen, dispelling foulness and turbidity." Unlike modern chemical disinfectants, Atractylodes lancea fumigation is a highly effective natural air disinfection method proven by modern pharmacological research. Its rich content of volatile oil components such as atractylodes alcohol and atractylone, after combustion and vaporization, exhibits significant killing and inhibitory effects on pathogenic microorganisms such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and viruses, providing a strong foundation for air disinfection and sterilization.

[0013] Angelica dahurica Angelica dahurica plays a crucial role in this formula, its effects far exceeding those of ordinary spices. It is pungent, warm, and aromatic, excelling at "relieving exterior syndromes, dispelling cold, eliminating wind and dampness, and clearing the orifices and relieving pain." Its addition not only enhances the drying and antibacterial properties of Atractylodes lancea, but also specifically prevents and alleviates symptoms such as headaches and nasal congestion caused by external wind-cold. After fermentation, its aromatic components are released more gently, synergistically working with other aromatic materials to create an aromatic environment that soothes the nerves and promotes lung function.

[0014] honeysuckle Honeysuckle is a key enhancing component in this formula to address the "antiviral" requirement. It is sweet and cold in nature, with the functions of "clearing heat and detoxifying, dispersing wind-heat." It is a recognized broad-spectrum antibacterial and antiviral drug in modern Chinese medicine, exhibiting inhibitory effects against various influenza viruses and pathogens. Its introduction greatly enhances the original formula's ability to prevent viral infectious diseases such as influenza, forming a dual "bactericidal-antiviral" guarantee with the "bactericidal" effect of Atractylodes lancea.

[0015] Acorus This product combines function and experience with Acorus calamus. Its aromatic and drying properties help Atractylodes lancea and Angelica dahurica to resolve dampness and turbidity; its effects of "opening the orifices and clearing phlegm, refreshing the mind and improving intelligence" help to freshen the air, refresh the mind, and improve mental fatigue caused by hot and humid environments. When burned, its aromatic components have a soothing effect on the respiratory tract.

[0016] Goldenrod Goldenrod is a natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory medicine with the effects of "clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and eliminating bacteria". It has a strong antibacterial effect, which can further expand the antibacterial spectrum of this formula. In synergy with honeysuckle, it forms a multi-target inhibitory effect against a variety of common respiratory pathogens and viruses, consolidating the disinfection and sterilization foundation of the entire formula.

[0017] mugwort In this formula, mugwort retains its traditional effects of "warming the meridians and stopping bleeding, dispelling cold and relieving pain," but its core value lies in the volatile oil released when it is burned, which has excellent insect-repelling, anti-allergic, and antibacterial effects. Its mild properties are harmonized through fermentation, and when used with herbs such as Atractylodes lancea, it can enhance the effect of dispelling disease and purifying the air, creating a warm and clean atmosphere.

[0018] clove Cloves are pungent, warm, and aromatic, and are known for their ability to "warm the middle jiao (digestive system), relieve nausea and vomiting, and tonify the kidneys and boost yang." They are rich in eugenol, a natural bactericide with strong antibacterial properties, inhibiting various pathogenic fungi and bacteria. In this formula, it is not only an important source of aroma but also a highly effective disinfectant. Its rich aroma, after fermentation and aging, becomes mellow and effectively neutralizes some of the medicinal flavor, enhancing the overall aroma quality.

[0019] Sandalwood and Agarwood Sandalwood (for promoting qi circulation and relieving pain) and agarwood (for calming the mind and relieving asthma), as traditional top-grade incense materials, transcend their simple function of fragrance in this formula. The aroma they produce when burned is mellow, long-lasting, and highly penetrating, possessing excellent calming, sedative, and central nervous system-relieving effects. Their inclusion greatly enhances the incense's style and user experience, ensuring that while effectively sterilizing, this product creates a tranquil, elegant, and pleasant indoor environment.

[0020] Dried tangerine peel Dried tangerine peel is known for its ability to "regulate qi, strengthen the spleen, and resolve dampness and phlegm." Its volatile oils possess excellent antibacterial and expectorant properties. When added to this product, its aromatic scent helps to regulate qi and relieve stagnation, alleviating feelings of chest tightness; furthermore, its drying properties enhance the dampness-removing effects of Atractylodes lancea and Angelica dahurica. After fermentation, its fresh fruity aroma is released, enriching the overall fragrance.

[0021] Cinnamon Cinnamon is said to "tonify fire and assist yang, dispel cold and relieve pain, and warm and unblock the meridians." It is extremely warming in nature, and its components, such as cinnamaldehyde, have antibacterial and stomach-warming effects. In the aromatic system of this product, cinnamon provides a warm, sweet base, balancing the slightly cooling properties of honeysuckle and other herbs, making the overall medicinal properties more balanced. Its warming effect also helps the diffusion and persistence of aroma molecules.

[0022] Asarum Asarum (Xi Xin) is used to "relieve exterior syndromes, dispel cold, expel wind, relieve pain, and open the nasal passages." This herb utilizes its pungent and warm properties to penetrate the entire body, clearing the nasal passages and directly relieving headaches, nasal congestion, and runny nose caused by wind-cold. Its volatile oil's antibacterial components enhance the overall disinfectant effect of the formula.

[0023] Elm bark In this formulation, elm bark replaces the simple binder "elm powder," achieving a unity of function and structure. It is a traditional Chinese medicine with the functions of "promoting urination, relieving strangury, detoxifying, and reducing swelling," and its rich plant mucilage acts as a high-quality natural binder. Using it not only reduces the addition of inactive excipients and enhances the product's all-natural properties, but its medicinal value may also contribute to its heat-clearing and dampness-reducing effects during combustion. In this formula, elm bark serves the dual function of a natural binder and a medicinal ingredient, possessing the functions of promoting urination, relieving strangury, detoxifying, and reducing swelling, and working synergistically with other medicinal materials during combustion.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. This invention utilizes a directional fermentation process, leveraging the action of microorganisms and enzymes to efficiently biotransform macromolecules in medicinal materials. This not only significantly enhances the activity of the original components but may also generate new antibacterial and antiviral active substances. Therefore, this product releases high concentrations of natural active ingredients upon combustion, exhibiting significant inhibitory effects on airborne microorganisms and various common respiratory pathogens (such as H1N1 influenza A virus, novel coronavirus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, etc.). The elimination rate of airborne microorganisms can reach over 90%, and the efficacy is long-lasting, effectively improving indoor air quality and helping to reduce the risk of airborne transmission of pathogenic microorganisms. 2. This invention uses all-natural Chinese medicinal herbs. The fermentation process allows for the full transformation of aroma precursors, resulting in minimal smoke during combustion and a significant reduction in PM2.5 particulate matter emissions, thus avoiding secondary pollution and irritation to the human body. Simultaneously, the aroma produced during fermentation blends seamlessly with the fragrances of natural aromatic materials such as agarwood, sandalwood, and cloves, creating a rich, mellow, and layered unique aroma. The pleasant and comfortable scent also has invigorating, calming, and sleep-aiding effects, solving the pain points of traditional products such as "pungent odor and excessive smoke," and providing users with a safe, healthy, and high-quality sensory experience. Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] An environmentally friendly herbal incense with disinfection and sterilization functions is prepared by a process that mainly includes: raw material pretreatment, precise proportioning, crushing and sieving, mixing and stirring, fermentation, molding, drying and packaging.

[0027] I. Raw Material Preparation and Pretreatment The following ingredients were selected: dried, mold-free Atractylodes lancea, Angelica dahurica, Aquilaria sinensis, Asarum heterotropoides, Lonicera japonica, Cinnamomum cassia, Citrus reticulata peel, Ulmus pumila bark, Artemisia argyi, Acorus tatarinowii, Solidago virgaurea, Clove, Sandalwood, and Aucklandia lappa. Ulmus pumila bark is mainly used as a natural adhesive. All raw materials were cleaned separately to remove impurities.

[0028] II. Crushing The pre-treated Chinese medicinal herbs are individually or together pulverized in a grinder and passed through a 60-100 mesh sieve to obtain uniform powder. Powder that is too fine may affect the air permeability during combustion, while powder that is too coarse will affect the molding and fermentation effects.

[0029] III. Mixing According to the specific proportions in the example, accurately weigh the pulverized medicinal powders and put them into a three-dimensional mixer or blender. Mix thoroughly for 30-60 minutes until the mixture has a uniform color.

[0030] IV. Fermentation (Key Process) Add water and stir: Add an appropriate amount of purified water to the well-mixed powder. The amount of water is usually 30%-50% of the total weight of the powder. Stir while adding water until the material reaches the state of "forming a clump when squeezed in the hand, but crumbling when touched".

[0031] Fermentation Control: Place the moistened material in a fermentation chamber, maintaining a relative humidity of 60%-80%. The fermentation cycle is 10-15 days in summer, 16-25 days in spring and autumn, and 26-35 days in winter. During this period, the material should be turned regularly to ensure uniform fermentation. This process can utilize the microorganisms and enzymes naturally present in the medicinal materials, or be carried out through inoculation with specific strains (such as yeast, lactic acid bacteria, or a mixture of beneficial fungi) for directional fermentation. The purpose of fermentation is to transform the macromolecules in the medicinal materials, generate new active ingredients, reduce the irritation of the original drugs, and produce natural, mild aroma precursors.

[0032] V. Molding After fermentation, the material is removed, and the humidity can be adjusted as needed. Then, it is extruded into incense sticks or coils using incense-making equipment.

[0033] VI. Drying Place the formed fragrance blanks in a cool, ventilated, and dry environment to air dry naturally, or use a low-temperature (not exceeding 45℃) forced-air drying oven to dry them until the moisture content of the fragrance body drops below 12%.

Microbiological testing (such as measuring the mortality rate of naturally occurring bacteria in the air after burning for a certain period in a confined space) showed that the products in each embodiment all had significant air disinfection and sterilization effects.

[0057] Comparative experiment: 1. Experimental Objective By comparing the data of the blank control group, the commercially available traditional incense control group, the control group closest to the prior art (CN101926371A), and the experimental group of this invention, the advanced nature and superiority of the technical solution of this invention are scientifically verified in terms of key indicators such as air disinfection and sterilization effect, environmental protection characteristics (smoke particulate matter, irritation), and fragrance persistence.

[0058] 2. Experimental Grouping and Materials Blank control group: No items are ignited to test the background value of the experimental environment.

[0059] Control group of commercially available traditional incense: Sandalwood coils from a common brand, whose main ingredients are wood powder, fragrance and combustion aid.

[0060] Prior art control group: Incense products prepared according to the formula of Example 3 (best embodiment) of patent CN101926371A (40 parts of Atractylodes lancea, 30 parts of Artemisia argyi, 10 parts of Acorus tatarinowii, 10 parts of Solidago virgaurea, 5 parts of Clove, 5 parts of Sandalwood, 5 parts of Aucklandia lappa, 30 parts of Forsythia suspensa, 10 parts of Cnidium monnieri) and its specification using the conventional incense-making process (crushing, mixing, adding elm powder for binding, molding, and drying).

[0061] The experimental group of this invention: The incense was prepared according to the formula of Example 1 of the new technology solution (40 parts of Atractylodes lancea, 15 parts of Angelica dahurica, 15 parts of Acorus tatarinowii, 15 parts of Solidago virgaurea, 14 parts of Ulmus pumila bark, 5 parts of clove, 5 parts of sandalwood, 5 parts of costus root, 4 parts of agarwood, 4 parts of cinnamon, 4 parts of dried tangerine peel, 7 parts of honeysuckle, 3 parts of Asarum heterotropoides, and 3 parts of Artemisia argyi) and combined with the key fermentation process (fermentation at 35℃ for 10 days).

[0062] All incense used in the experiments was made into incense sticks of a uniform specification to ensure consistent burning conditions.

[0063] 3. Experimental Environment and Methods Environment: The experiment was conducted in four sealed experimental chambers, each with a volume of 30 m³ (e.g., 3 m × 4 m × 2.5 m), with the initial environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, and air quality) of each chamber kept consistent.

[0064] method: Microbial testing: Using an air microbial sampler, natural colonies were collected from the air in each experimental chamber before incense burning, immediately after incense burning, and 1 hour after incense burning. The colonies were cultured, counted, and the natural colony mortality rate was calculated. Formula: Mortality rate (%) = (Number of colonies before incense burning - Number of colonies at a certain moment) / Number of colonies before incense burning × 100%.

[0065] PM2.5 concentration detection: A laser PM2.5 detector was used to monitor and record the peak and average concentrations of PM2.5 in the experimental chamber in real time throughout the entire incense burning process.

[0066] Subjective evaluation: Ten volunteers with a sensitive sense of smell were organized to enter the experimental chamber after the incense burning was completed, without knowing their group assignments. They rated the irritation (pungent or not) and pleasantness of the aroma (1-10 points, the higher the score, the better).

[0067] Aroma persistence test: After the incense was burned, the experimental chamber was sealed, and the same volunteer entered the chamber every hour to smell the incense, recording the duration for which the aroma could be clearly perceived.

[0068] 4. Experimental Results and Data Analysis Note: "-" indicates that there is no relevant data or no test is required.

[0069] 5. Experimental Conclusions Based on the comparative experimental data above, the following clear conclusions can be drawn: Disinfection and sterilization efficacy: The natural airborne bacteria elimination rate of the experimental group of this invention was significantly higher than that of other groups. In particular, the sterilization effect was best maintained 1 hour after the incense was burned. This proves that the fermentation process and the optimized compound formulation (such as the addition of Angelica dahurica, Citrus reticulata peel, and Lonicera japonica) can significantly enhance and prolong the disinfection and sterilization efficacy of Chinese herbal medicines, far exceeding existing technologies and commercially available products.

[0070] Environmental and health characteristics: The PM2.5 concentration produced by the combustion of the experimental group in this invention was significantly lower than that of the control group in existing technologies, and even more significantly lower than that of commercially available traditional incense. This indicates that the new formula and process can effectively reduce the generation of smoke particles, making it more environmentally friendly and healthier.

[0071] In subjective evaluation, the experimental group of this invention had the lowest irritation and the highest pleasure, indicating that its aroma does not come from chemical fragrances, but rather from the natural, mellow, and rich aroma produced by the fermentation of the medicinal materials themselves, resulting in the best user experience.

[0072] Aroma persistence: The aroma of the experimental group of this invention lasted the longest, exceeding 8 hours. This is due to the fermentation process, which may transform the aroma components into more complex and less volatile forms, as well as the reasonable proportion of high-quality aromatic materials such as agarwood, sandalwood, and woody notes, achieving the design goal of "slow aroma dissipation and long retention time".

[0073] In summary, this technical solution, through innovative formula design and key fermentation processes, has achieved significant progress in disinfection and sterilization effects, environmental protection and emission reduction, user experience, and durability. Verification by a third-party authoritative institution has shown that this product has good inhibitory effects against atypical influenza viruses and the novel coronavirus, further demonstrating its technological advancement and reliability. Compared with traditional products, this product outperforms in overall performance, possessing significant practicality and market competitive advantages.
