An electromagnetic valve is installed inside the drain elbow 102. During actual use, it can be pre-connected to an external oil storage mechanism through the drain elbow 102. When the oil falls to the bottom of the inner cavity of the collecting cylinder 2 with a funnel-shaped design, it will quickly gather towards the liquid outlet 101. By opening the electromagnetic valve inside the drain elbow 102, it is convenient for the drained oil to be discharged and collected.

[0028] Working principle: First, the staff pours the cotton seeds to be drained into the interior of the centrifuge cylinder 4. Then, the first motor 68 is started, and the first sprocket 66, the second sprocket 67, and the transmission shaft 611 are used to drive the centrifuge cylinder 4 to rotate. The centrifugal force generated during rotation will accelerate the separation of the oil liquid from the cotton seeds. The drained oil liquid will fall into the interior of the filtering assembly 9. After being filtered, it will be collected through the drainage assembly 10 and enter the external oil storage mechanism, thereby keeping the drained oil liquid clean and facilitating the subsequent recycling work of the oil liquid. After the oil draining work is completed, the second transmission assembly 8 can drive the entire centrifuge cylinder 4 to displace along the outer side of the gear ring 85 with the circular boss 81 as the center, so as to move the centrifuge cylinder 4 to a side away from the collection cylinder 2. Then, a trolley is arranged below the centrifuge cylinder 4 and the opening and closing assembly 7 is used to take out the drained cotton seeds, thereby facilitating the loading and unloading operation of the cotton seeds, saving time and effort, and also facilitating the cleaning of the centrifuge cylinder 4 after long-term work.
