[0002] An extraction tank is a commonly used leaching and extraction device in pharmaceutical and chemical industries, and is particularly suitable for the leaching and extraction of components contained in plant products; in order to facilitate slag discharging operation after the extraction of extracts, a split slag discharging door is arranged at the bottom of the extraction tank body; the slag discharging door generally adopts jacket heating, and the existing conventional slag discharging door generally adopts integral or honeycomb jacket for heating; both of these two jackets have the following problems:

[0003] (1) Since the switch connecting piece of the slag discharging door is connected to the jacket, a large force will be generated on the jacket when the slag discharging door is switched, causing the jacket to deform.

[0004] (2) After steam is introduced into the jacket, the slag discharging door is a pressurized device here, and there are multiple openings on the head, which brings a lot of inconvenience to the strength calculation of the equipment and the stress analysis of the slag discharging door.

[0005] The heating area of the integral jacket or honeycomb jacket is limited by aspects such as the cylinder diameter, the bottom liquid outlet, and the welding of related components of the slag discharging device, and it is difficult to adjust according to the actual situation. The uniformity of heating during the extraction process has a certain impact on the extraction rate of the product and the uniformity of the medicine. Since the heat is transferred from bottom to top, the medicinal materials are heated unevenly, and the medicinal materials are prone to being undercooked or locally boiling violently, with poor practicability.
