Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of extraction equipment, in particular to an ultrasonic-assisted extraction equipment. Background Art

[0002] As an important component of e-cigarettes, the quality of e-cigarette flavors directly determines the taste and quality of e-cigarettes. The extraction methods of e-cigarette flavors mostly use solvent extraction, distillation or supercritical fluid extraction. In the extraction process of e-cigarette flavors, extraction equipment is required.

[0003] The utility model patent with the authorization announcement number CN202320031376.3 discloses a plant essence extraction and separation device, which includes a bracket; a distillation tank, the distillation tank is fixedly mounted on the bracket; a top cover, the top cover is arranged on the top of the distillation tank, the top cover and the distillation tank are fixedly connected by a plurality of buckles, and the top of the top cover is provided with a pipe interface; a delivery pipe, the delivery pipe is fixedly connected to the pipe interface on the top of the top cover, and the delivery pipe is a hose; a cold water tank, the cold water tank is fixedly mounted on the bracket; a condenser, the condenser is arranged on the cold water tank. In the water tank, the two ends of the condenser are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the cold water tank respectively, and both ends of the condenser extend outside the cold water tank, and one end of the delivery pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the condenser; the separatory funnel, the separatory funnel is fixedly installed on the bracket, the bottom end of the condenser is fixedly connected to the top of the separatory funnel through a connecting pipe, and the separatory funnel is made of transparent material; the placing mechanism, the placing mechanism is arranged in the distillation tank; the steam spraying mechanism, the steam spraying mechanism is arranged on the distillation tank; the stirring mechanism, the stirring mechanism is arranged on the placing mechanism and the steam spraying mechanism. When steam is input into the distillation tank to distill the plants through the bracket, distillation tank, top cover, delivery pipe, cold water tank, condenser, separating funnel, placement mechanism and steam spraying mechanism, the steam spraying pipe in the steam spraying mechanism can be rotated to make the steam evenly distributed, and the stirring mechanism can stir the plants in the placement box under the rotation of the steam spraying pipe through the rotating mechanism, so that the plants are heated more evenly, thereby improving the extraction efficiency of the plant essential oil and making the extraction of the aromatic components in the plants more sufficient.

[0004] Although the plant essence extraction and separation device improves the extraction efficiency of plant essential oils, the device still has the following problems in actual use: when performing condensation, the device only uses an independently set condenser for processing, and the condensation efficiency of a single condenser is low. When the amount of steam discharged during the extraction process is large, it is difficult for a single condenser to effectively achieve condensation processing, resulting in some steam escaping without sufficient processing, which may carry along incompletely extracted essence components, directly affecting the purity and quality of the final product. In view of this, we propose an ultrasonic-assisted extraction device. Utility Model Content
