Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a Chinese medicine steaming device, in particular to a Chinese herbal medicine steaming and essential oil collecting device. Background Art

[0002] At present, when Chinese herbal medicines are steamed and processed, they are directly added to the steaming pot for steaming. In this decoction or heating processing (nine steaming and nine drying) process, it generally takes a long time to steam. During the whole process, volatile components will be produced, which are plant essential oils. These components will escape with the steam, resulting in waste of plant essential oils. In addition, the existing steaming pot can only meet the continuous steaming needs, but cannot meet the steaming needs of increasing temperature and pressure. If the heating temperature of Chinese herbal medicines can be increased by increasing pressure in the later stage of steaming, the processing of Chinese herbal medicines can be accelerated. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical task of the utility model is to provide a Chinese herbal medicine steaming and essential oil collecting device in view of the deficiencies of the above prior art.

[0004] The utility model adopts the following technical scheme to solve the technical problems: a Chinese herbal medicine steaming and essential oil collecting device, comprising a steaming pot and a pot cover located on the top of the steaming pot, wherein a steam generator is connected to the bottom of the steaming pot, an annular bracket is arranged on the inner wall of the steaming pot, a steaming tank is arranged on the bracket, a hanger is arranged on the top of the steaming tank, a hanging ring is arranged in the middle of the hanger, a sealing ring is arranged between the steaming tank and the steaming pot, a three-way pipe is arranged on the pot cover, a pressure relief valve is arranged at one end of the three-way pipe, the other end of the three-way pipe is connected to an air guide pipe through an essential oil valve, the end of the air guide pipe is connected to a condenser through an end liquid seal, and an essential oil outlet is arranged at the bottom of the condenser.

[0005] Further improvement: the sealing ring is composed of two sealing rings, one of which is arranged on the outer wall of the cooking tank, and the other sealing ring is arranged on the inner wall of the cooking pot, and the cross section of the sealing ring is a right triangle.

[0006] Further improvement: a front end liquid seal is provided at the front end of the air guide tube.

[0007] The utility model has the advantages that, through the connection between the air guide tube and the condenser, volatile substances can be collected during the cooking process of traditional Chinese medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine essential oil can be obtained through condensation; at the same time, in the later stage of cooking, after the essential oil valve is closed, the pressure in the cooking tank can be quickly increased, and the purpose of rapid preparation of traditional Chinese medicine can be achieved by means of pressure increase, and the sealing ring on the outer edge of the cooking tank is used to prevent the steam from short-circuiting, but directly pass through the traditional Chinese medicine layer, thereby improving the cooking effect.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] The utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0015] As shown in the figure, a Chinese herbal medicine steaming and essential oil collection device includes a steaming pot 2 and a pot cover 6 located on the top of the steaming pot 2, wherein a steam generator 1 is connected to the bottom of the steaming pot 2, an annular bracket 3 is provided on the inner wall of the steaming pot 2, a steaming tank 4 is provided on the bracket 3, the bottom of the steaming tank 4 has an air leakage hole, a hanger 41 is provided on the top of the steaming tank 4, a hanging ring 42 is provided in the middle of the hanger 41, and a sealing ring 5 is provided between the steaming tank 4 and the steaming pot 2, and the sealing ring 5 is composed of two sealing rings 51, one of which is arranged on the outer wall of the steaming tank 4, and the other sealing ring 51 is arranged on the inner wall of the steaming pot 2, the inclined surfaces of the two sealing rings 51 are in contact with each other, and the cross-section of the sealing ring 51 is a right triangle. A three-way pipe 7 is provided on the pot cover 6, one end of the three-way pipe 7 is provided with a pressure relief valve 8, the other end of the three-way pipe 7 is connected to an air guide pipe 11 through an essential oil valve 9, a front end liquid seal 10 is provided at the front end of the air guide pipe 11, the end of the air guide pipe 11 is connected to a condenser 13 through an end liquid seal 12, and an essential oil outlet 14 is provided at the bottom of the condenser 13.

[0016] Its working principle is: first, add Chinese herbal medicine into the cooking tank 4, put the cooking tank 4 into the cooking pot 2 by lifting, cover the pot cover 6, and tighten the fastening device. At this time, the cooking tank is squeezed by the pot cover 6, and the two sealing rings 51 fit together to form a sealing ring 5, so that the sealing ring 5 seals the gap between the cooking pot 2 and the top of the cooking tank 4, and then the front end of the air guide pipe 11 is connected to the essential oil valve 9 through the front end liquid seal 10, and the end of the air guide pipe 11 is connected to the condenser 13 through the end liquid seal 12, and finally water is injected into the steam generator 1 to heat and generate steam.

[0017] When cooking, first close the pressure relief valve 8 and open the essential oil valve 9. In this way, during the cooking process, the escaped gas enters the condenser 13 through the air duct 10, and the essential oil is collected in the condenser 13 after condensation 13. After cooking for two hours in this state, close the essential oil valve 9, and let the pressure in the cooking pot 2 reach 0.2-0.3MPa, close the valve on the steam generator 1, and let the cooking pot 2 maintain 0.2-0.3MPa for 0.5-1h, and finally open the pressure relief valve 8 to release the pressure. After the air pressure in the cooking pot 2 is balanced, open the fastening device, lift out the cooking tank 4, unload, and prepare for the next batch of operations. The whole process meets the cooking needs of Chinese herbal medicines, and at the same time, the essential oils produced during the cooking process can be well collected. Finally, the sealing ring 5 on the outer edge of the cooking tank 4 is used to prevent the steam from short-circuiting. The steam can directly enter the cooking tank 4 and directly pass through the Chinese medicine layer to improve the cooking effect.

[0018] The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
