DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the electric heating Chinese medicine extractor of this embodiment includes a base 1, a steamer 2 and a condenser 3. An electric heating seat 4 is arranged on the left side above the base 1, and the steamer 2 is arranged on the electric heating seat 4. The electric heating seat 4 is used to heat and boil the steamer 2. A stirring mechanism 5 is arranged inside the steamer 2, and the stirring mechanism 5 is used to stir the Chinese medicine inside the steamer 2. The upper right side of the steamer 2 is connected to the condenser 3 through a steam delivery pipe 6, and the lower right side of the steamer 2 is connected to the condenser 3 through an infusion pipe 7. A one-way valve 8 is arranged on the infusion pipe 7. A condenser 9 and a reflux hood 10 are arranged above the inner cavity of the condenser 3. The water vapor and volatile oil generated during the cooking process enter the condenser 3 through the steam delivery pipe 6, and the volatile oil floats on the liquid surface. The excess water flows back into the steamer 2 through the infusion pipe 7. The reflux cover 10 is an umbrella-shaped structure with a protruding middle portion. The condenser tube 9 is spirally wound on the outer wall of the reflux cover 10. Multiple oil drain ports 11 with switch valves are arranged at equal intervals on the right side of the condenser tank 3. The oil drain ports 11 are used to discharge volatile oil. A glass window 12 is arranged on one side of the front of the condenser tank 3. The glass window 12 is used to observe the liquid level.

[0026] Furthermore, the stirring mechanism 5 includes a motor 501 , a rotating rod 502 and a stirring rod 503 .

[0027] Furthermore, a top cover 13 is detachably provided on the top of the steamer 2 , and the stirring mechanism 5 is installed on the top cover 13 .

[0028] Furthermore, the outer wall of the steam delivery pipe 6 is coated with heat-insulating cotton to prevent water vapor and volatile oil from condensing and reflux in the steam delivery pipe.

[0029] Furthermore, the steam delivery pipe 6 is located at one end of the condenser 3 and below the reflux hood 10 .

[0030] Furthermore, a drain pipe is provided on the back side of the condensation tank 3 .

[0031] Working principle: water is added into the steamer 2, and the amount of water added is observed through the glass window 12, and then the corresponding amount of Chinese medicine is added for soaking. After the soaking is completed, the electric heating base 4 heats the steamer 2. During the heating and steaming process, the stirring mechanism 5 can stir the Chinese medicine inside the steamer 2. The water vapor and volatile oil generated during the steaming process enter the condenser 3 through the steam delivery pipe 6. When the water vapor and volatile oil contact the reflux hood 10, they are condensed and refluxed. The circulating cooling water connected to the condenser 9 and the outside world can cool the reflux hood 10 to ensure the condensation efficiency. The refluxed water and volatile oil fall into the condenser 3, and the volatile oil floats on the liquid surface. The excess water flows back to the steamer 2 through the infusion tube 7 for continued use. After the steaming is completed, it is cooled for a period of time, and then the oil discharge port 11 at the corresponding position is opened to discharge the volatile oil.
