During the processing, a separation device is needed to separate water and oil from the medicinal materials.

[0003] The separation efficiency of basic separation devices is generally average, and they cannot effectively separate oil and water. As a result, the separated water still contains a relatively large amount of oil, which does not meet the discharge standards. At the same time, the remaining liquid is still mixed with water and cannot be completely separated. Secondary processing separation is required, which increases the labor time and reduces the practicality of the separation device. To solve the above technical problems, we have designed a device for extracting and separating volatile oil from traditional Chinese medicinal materials. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a device for extracting and separating volatile oil from traditional Chinese medicinal materials, which has the advantages of effectively separating oil and water and complete separation, and solves the problems of average separation efficiency, inability to effectively separate oil and water, resulting in the separated water still containing a relatively large amount of oil and not meeting the discharge standards, and at the same time, the remaining liquid is still mixed with water and cannot be completely separated, requiring secondary processing separation, increasing the labor time and reducing the practicality of the separation device.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical scheme: A device for extracting and separating volatile oil from traditional Chinese medicinal materials includes a separation barrel.

A mounting frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the separation barrel. A heating sheet is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame. A liquid level sensor is fixedly installed on the left side of the bottom of the inner cavity of the separation barrel. An outlet valve is fixedly installed at the bottom of the separation barrel.

[0006] Preferably, a water outlet valve and an oil outlet valve are respectively fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel. An air inlet pipe is installed through the top of the inner cavity of the separation barrel.

[0007] Preferably, the other end of the air inlet pipe penetrates into the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel, and a control valve is fixedly installed on the surface of the air inlet pipe.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The present utility model has the advantages of high separation efficiency through the cooperation of a liquid extraction pump, a connecting pipe, a telescopic hose and a floating disc. The liquid is continuously discharged into the inner cavity of the separation barrel through the liquid inlet pipe. After standing, the oil floats on the surface of the water. By controlling the liquid extraction pump to work, the floating disc continuously moves upward, so that the telescopic hose always contacts the liquid to extract the oil, improving the oil-water separation efficiency;

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 4 , a volatile oil extraction and separation device for traditional Chinese medicine, comprising a separation barrel 1. The top of the left side of the separation barrel 1 is fixedly installed with a liquid inlet pipe 2. The top of the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1 is penetrated and installed with a static liquid extraction assembly 3. The top of the right side of the separation barrel 1 is installed with a condensation separation assembly 4. The condensation separation assembly 4 includes a liquid storage barrel 401. By setting the liquid storage barrel 401, an installation position can be provided for each component, making it convenient to install each component. The surface of the liquid storage barrel 401 is fixedly connected to the right side of the separation barrel 1. The left side of the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401 is fixedly installed with a condensation pipe 403. The center of the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401 is fixedly connected with an oil-water separation membrane 402. The left side of the top of the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401 is communicated with a pressurizing pipe 9. The bottom of the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1 is fixedly connected with a mounting rack 6. The bottom of the mounting rack 6 is fixedly connected with a heating element 7. By setting the mounting rack 6, an installation position can be provided for the heating element 7, making the heating element 7 stably installed. By setting the condensation pipe 403, the gas transmission requirements can be met, and the gas evaporated after heating by the heating element 7 can be condensed. The left side of the bottom of the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1 is fixedly installed with a liquid level sensor 8. By setting the liquid level sensor 8, the liquid level in the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1 can be detected in real time, facilitating subsequent separation and processing. The bottom of the separation barrel 1 is fixedly installed with a liquid outlet valve 5;

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the left and right sides of the bottom of the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401 are respectively fixedly installed with a water outlet valve 404 and an oil outlet valve 405. The top of the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1 is penetrated and installed with an air inlet pipe 407;

[0022] Please refer to Figure 4 , the other end of the air inlet pipe 407 penetrates into the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401. The surface of the air inlet pipe 407 is fixedly installed with a control valve 406. By setting the control valve 406, the gas entering the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401 can be intercepted to prevent gas backflow;

[0023] Please refer to Figure 3 , the static liquid extraction assembly 3 includes a liquid extraction pump 301. The bottom of the liquid extraction pump 301 is bolted to the top of the separation barrel 1;

[0024] Please refer toFigure 3 , a connecting pipe 302 is connected to the liquid inlet end of the liquid pumping pump 301, and one end of the connecting pipe 302 far from the liquid inlet end of the liquid pumping pump 301 is connected to a telescopic hose 303;

[0025] Please refer to Figure 3 , one end of the telescopic hose 303 far from the connecting pipe 302 penetrates into the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1, and a floating plate 304 is fixedly sleeved on the bottom surface of the telescopic hose 303. By setting the floating plate 304, under the action of the liquid pumping pump 301, the position of the telescopic hose 303 can be adjusted to ensure that the floating plate 304 is always in contact with the liquid in the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1. The bottom of the telescopic hose 303 penetrates to the bottom of the floating plate 304;

[0026] Please refer to Figure 3 , the bottom of the telescopic hose 303 penetrates to the bottom of the floating plate 304, and the telescopic hose 303 is used in cooperation with the floating plate 304.

[0027] During use, all components are in the initial state. Set the preset value of the liquid level sensor 8. Inject liquid into the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1 through the liquid inlet pipe 2. After standing, the oil phase is placed above the water phase. Control the liquid pumping pump 301 to work. The floating plate 304 moves upward continuously, so that the telescopic hose 303 is always in contact with the oil phase liquid to pump out the oil. At the same time, open the liquid outlet valve 5 to discharge the water phase. When the liquid level sensor 8 reaches the preset value, it means that there is a small amount of mixed liquid at the bottom of the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1. At this time, a large amount of mixed liquid can be continuously introduced into the separation barrel 1, and the operations of standing, extracting oil and discharging water can be carried out, so that a large amount of mixed liquid can be separated. After final processing, a small amount of mixed liquid will remain at the bottom of the separation barrel 1. At this time, control the heating sheet 7 to work. The heating sheet 7 heats the liquid remaining at the bottom of the inner cavity of the separation barrel 1. At this time, open the control valve 406. The gas generated by heating enters the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401 through the air inlet pipe 407, and then the liquid is condensed by the condenser pipe 403. The pressure in the liquid storage barrel 401 is increased by cooperating with an external booster pump through the pressure pipe 9, so that the water is discharged to the right side of the inner cavity of the liquid storage barrel 401 through the oil-water separation membrane 402, and can be discharged respectively through the water outlet valve 404 and the oil outlet valve 405, making the separation more complete.

[0028] To sum up: For this traditional Chinese medicine volatile oil extraction and separation device, by setting the standing and liquid pumping assembly 3, the condensation and separation assembly 4, the mounting rack 6, the heating sheet 7 and the liquid level sensor 8, the problems of general separation efficiency, inability to effectively separate oil and water, resulting in the separated water still containing more oil and not meeting the discharge standard, and at the same time, the remaining liquid still contains water and cannot be completely separated, requiring secondary processing and separation, increasing the labor time and reducing the practicability of the separation device are solved.
