Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of distillation equipment technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency distillation equipment for extracting oregano essential oil. Background Technology

[0002] Oregano is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Oregano in the family Lamiaceae. The whole oregano plant can be used to extract a volatile oil with an aromatic flavor—oregano essential oil. Oregano exerts its pharmacological effects mainly through oregano essential oil. There are various methods for extracting oregano oil, one of the most common methods being steam distillation.

[0003] Before steam distillation, oregano needs to be placed inside the main body of the distillation vessel, in the middle position, which is inconvenient to place and easy to tilt when taking it out. When the water level inside the main body of the distillation vessel decreases, water needs to be added manually, which is cumbersome. Furthermore, when the water level inside the main body of the distillation vessel is too low, it takes a certain amount of time for the newly added water to boil, resulting in low distillation efficiency. Therefore, we propose a high-efficiency distillation device for extracting oregano essential oil. Utility Model Content
