Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil processing technology, and more specifically, to a seed treatment device and method for processing camellia oil. Background Technology

[0002] Camellia oil, also known as tea oil or tea seed oil, is a fatty oil obtained from the mature seeds of the Camellia oleifera plant (family Theaceae) through pressing or subcritical low-temperature extraction. This oil has a long history of use in China; oil extraction from Camellia oleifera fruits began before the Tang Dynasty, with the pressing technology maturing during the Yuan Dynasty and reaching its peak during the Ming Dynasty. It is highly regarded for its high nutritional value and unique health benefits.

[0003] Wrapping the tea cake is crucial for oil extraction. Currently, it's mainly done manually. This requires not only excellent physical strength but also keen eyesight. The tea cake maker first stacks three iron hoops on a flat surface, then twists a knot of straw called a "thousand-pound pole," spreading it radially across the hoops as a base. Next, steaming hot tea powder is poured into the hoops, and the maker, barefoot, quickly and firmly presses the powder down to form a round tea cake. The wrapping process is very delicate; if the straw knot isn't twisted properly, the tea cake will crumble when lifted; if the cake is too thick, it will affect the oil yield; if it's too thin, the powder will remain trapped inside the hoops and won't be fully extracted, resulting in an even lower oil yield.

[0004] Wrapping the steamed tea seed powder into cakes is a crucial step in processing camellia oil. Existing tools are rather rudimentary; using a more precise measuring tool could significantly improve efficiency and accurately ensure the thickness of the processed tea cakes. Currently, there is a lack of equipment that can easily replace manual labor in the wrapping process, ensuring uniform quality and consistent tea cake texture. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a seed treatment device and method for processing camellia oil, which facilitates the processing of camellia oil.

[0006] The present invention achieves its objective by employing the following technical solution:

[0009] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the extrusion assembly also includes a power electric push rod, the cross plate is fixedly connected to the power electric push rod, the push rod of the power electric push rod is fixedly connected to a rectangular rod, the rectangular rod is fixedly connected to a set of power round blocks, and each of the power round blocks is respectively set in the corresponding straight groove.

[0010] As a further limitation of this technical solution, each of the guide rings is fixedly connected to an opening plate, each of the baffles is matched with the corresponding opening plate, and each of the opening plates is provided with a guide hole that matches the corresponding biscuit block.

[0011] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the mounting plate is fixedly connected to the guide vertical rod, and the guide vertical rod passes through the cross plate.

[0012] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the side material of the circular plug is rubber.

[0013] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the round plug is fixedly connected to the handle.

[0014] A method for processing seeds for camellia oil processing includes the following steps:

[0015] S1: Harvesting. Camellia seeds mature in late autumn and early winter. Generally, the seeds are harvested on the mountain during the Frost's Descent solar term each year. Timely harvesting is essential to ensure a high oil yield. After the seeds are harvested, they are first piled up or placed in the sun to dry, so that their outer shells crack.

[0016] S2: Shelling: Remove the shells from the sun-dried and cracked camellia seeds, remove impurities with a windmill, and then sun-dry them.

[0017] S3: Grinding, using an electric grinding machine for grinding;

[0018] S4: Steaming powder, placing the ground tea seed powder in a pot and steaming it.

[0019] S5: Wrapping the tea cake: Pour the steamed tea seed powder into the wrapping ring 31 to make the tea cake.

[0020] S6: Oil pressing and filtration. Mechanical oil pumps are used for pressing, and palm bark is used for filtration at the oil outlet.

[0021] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the specific steps of S5 are as follows:

[0022] S51: In the initial state, the baffles on both sides rise under the action of the spring, blocking both sides of the wrapping ring;

[0023] Remove the round plug, add tea seed powder through the feed inlet into the area formed by the cake ring and the baffle, and screw the round plug back on;

[0024] S52: Control the electric push rod to retract, so that the opening plate contacts the baffle downwards, and drive the baffle to move downwards along the slot and the guide tube, so that the baffle squeezes the spring;

[0025] S53: When the biscuit block matches the position of the biscuit ring, the electric push rod is turned off;

[0026] S54: Control the electric push rod to reciprocate and extend, so that the cake block moves back and forth in the cake ring to squeeze the tea seed powder to form a tea cake;

[0027] S55: Control the electric push rod to reset;

[0028] S56: Control the electric push rod to extend and remove the tea cake.

[0029] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the opening plate matches the wrapping ring. In the initial state, the end of the wrapping block is flush with the opening plate. After the opening plate contacts the baffle, it drives the baffle to move downward. The opening plate and the wrapping block block the two sides of the wrapping ring, keeping the wrapping ring sealed and preventing tea seed powder from leaking out. This facilitates the subsequent movement of the wrapping block to compress the tea seed powder into a tea cake.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are:

[0031] This device employs an open plate with guide holes that match the tea cake block. When the open plate contacts a baffle, it moves the baffle, opening the tea cake ring. The open plate and the tea cake block then seal the two ends of the ring, preventing leakage of tea seed powder. When the tea cake block and the ring are aligned, the block reciprocates, compressing the tea seed powder into a tea cake. The blocks on both sides move at the same amplitude, ensuring a uniform tea cake. After the tea cake is formed, pressing the baffle allows for easy removal. Attached Figure Description

[0056] A method for processing seeds for camellia oil processing includes the following steps:

[0057] S1: Harvesting. Camellia seeds mature in late autumn and early winter. Generally, the seeds are harvested on the mountain during the Frost's Descent solar term each year. Timely harvesting is essential to ensure a high oil yield. After the seeds are harvested, they are first piled up or placed in the sun to dry, so that their outer shells crack.

[0058] S2: Shelling: Remove the shells from the sun-dried and cracked camellia seeds, remove impurities with a windmill, and then sun-dry them.

[0060] S4: Steaming powder, placing the ground tea seed powder in a pot and steaming it.

[0061] S5: Wrapping the tea cake: Pour the steamed tea seed powder into the wrapping ring 31 to make the tea cake.

[0062] S6: Oil pressing and filtration. Mechanical oil pumps are used for pressing, and palm bark is used for filtration at the oil outlet.

[0063] The specific steps of S5 are as follows:

[0064] S51: In the initial state, the baffles 30 on both sides rise under the action of the spring 12, blocking the two sides of the wrapping ring 31;

[0065] Remove the round plug 9, add the tea seed powder through the feed inlet 32 ​​into the area formed by the cake ring 31 and the baffle 30, and screw on the round plug 9;

[0066] S52: Control the electric push rod 5 to retract, so that the opening plate 26 contacts the baffle 30 downward, and drive the baffle 30 to move downward along the slot 3 and the guide tube 11, so that the baffle 30 squeezes the spring 12;
