[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. Compared with existing technologies, this invention, by setting up a first outer shell, a feeding funnel, a crushing component, crushing blades, a first pipe, a pump body, a sealing cover, a second drive motor, a second pipe, a discharge port, and a handle, allows the plant raw materials to be more thoroughly stirred. The second drive motor is then activated, driving a connected gear to rotate. This gear meshes with another gear, generating suction or pressure within the sealing cover, drawing the liquid from the first outer shell into the first pipe. Then, rotating the handle connects the second and first pipes through the discharge port. The pump body pumps a portion of the plant raw material and extract mixture from the first outer shell back into the feeding funnel through the first and second pipes, where it is crushed again by the crushing blades of the crushing component, achieving cyclic crushing. Through multiple cycles of crushing, the plant raw materials can be crushed more thoroughly. This invention, for some hard or complex plant raw materials, enables cyclic crushing, improving subsequent extraction efficiency, better releasing the effective components within the plant, and ensuring the quality of the concentrate.

[0016] 2. Compared with existing technologies, this invention, through the installation of a third pipe, valve, outlet, rotary handle, filter assembly, filter barrel, and discharge pipe, allows the outlet to connect to the third pipe after extraction by rotating the valve handle. The extract containing plant residues and other impurities enters the filter assembly through the third pipe. As the liquid passes through the filter barrel, the residues are trapped above the filter barrel, and the filtered liquid flows out through the discharge pipe, resulting in a relatively pure concentrated extract of natural plants. This invention removes impurities generated during the extraction process, yielding a pure concentrated natural plant extract and improving product quality. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Reference Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a natural plant concentration and extraction device, comprising: a first outer shell 1, a feed funnel 2 fixedly connected to the top of the first outer shell 1, a crushing component 3 installed inside the feed funnel 2, a stirring component 4 installed inside the first outer shell 1, a drive component 5 installed between the crushing component 3 and the stirring component 4, a first pipe 6 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first outer shell 1, a pump body 7 installed on the first pipe 6, a second pipe 8 fixedly connected to the top of the first pipe 6, and the end of the second pipe 8 away from the first pipe 6 fixedly connected to the feed funnel 2. Above, a third pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the first pipe 6, a valve 10 is installed between the second pipe 8 and the third pipe 9, a filter assembly 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the first outer shell 1, and the discharge end of the third pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the filter assembly 11; the crushing assembly 3 includes a support frame 301, a first rotating shaft 302 and a crushing blade 303, the support frame 301 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feed hopper 2, the first rotating shaft 302 is movably installed inside the support frame 301, and the crushing blade 303 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first rotating shaft 302.

[0027] In use, the plant material is fed into the feed hopper 2, and then the drive assembly 5 provides power to the first rotating shaft 302, causing it to rotate within the support frame 301, which in turn drives the crushing blade 303 to rotate. When the plant material enters from the feed hopper 2, the crushing blade 303 cuts and crushes it, breaking larger plant pieces into smaller particles. This allows for processing of the raw material at the initial stage of entering the extraction equipment, preventing large pieces of plant material from entering subsequent processes and causing blockages or affecting the extraction effect. Then, the material is stirred by the stirring assembly 4, and then the pump body 7 is turned on. The plant liquid is then transported back to the feed hopper 2 through the valve 10 for further crushing and stirring. Finally, the liquid is transported to the filter assembly 11 through the valve 10, filtered, and then discharged.

[0028] The stirring assembly 4 includes a second rotating shaft 401 and stirring rods 402. The second rotating shaft 401 is movably installed inside the first housing 1 and is centered on the first housing 1. Multiple stirring rods 402 are fixedly connected in a ring to the outer wall of the second rotating shaft 401.

[0029] When the drive component 5 drives the second rotating shaft 401 to rotate, it drives the stirring rod 402 to stir the plant raw materials and extract in the first outer shell 1. During the extraction process, the stirring makes the plant raw materials and the extraction solvent come into full contact, promotes the dissolution of the effective components, and accelerates the extraction process. The ring-shaped stirring rod 402 can cover a large stirring area, ensuring that the plant raw materials in different positions can be fully stirred, thereby improving the extraction efficiency and quality.

[0030] The drive assembly 5 includes a first drive motor 501, a first belt groove 502, a second belt groove 503, and a drive belt 504. The first drive motor 501 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first housing 1. The second rotating shaft 401 is fixedly installed at the output end of the first drive motor 501. The second belt groove 503 is opened at the top of the second rotating shaft 401. The drive belt 504 is opened at the top of the first rotating shaft 302 and is fixedly installed between the first belt groove 502 and the second belt groove 503.

[0031] After the first drive motor 501 starts, it drives the second rotating shaft 401 to rotate. Through the transmission of the drive belt 504, it also drives the first rotating shaft 302 to rotate. This allows the stirring component 4 and the crushing component 3 to be driven by one motor at the same time, realizing centralized control of the power source and simplifying the equipment structure.

[0032] The pump body 7 includes a sealing cover 701, a gear 702, and a second drive motor 703. The sealing cover 701 is fixedly connected to the first pipe 6. Two gears 702 are movably installed inside the sealing cover 701. The second drive motor 703 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sealing cover 701. One of the gears 702 is fixedly installed at the output end of the second drive motor 703, and the two gears 702 mesh with each other.

[0033] When the second drive motor 703 starts, it drives the gear 702 connected to it to rotate. Through gear meshing, it drives another gear 702 to rotate, thereby generating suction or pressure inside the sealing cover 701, drawing the liquid in the first outer shell 1 into the first pipe 6.

[0034] Valve 10 includes valve core 1001, discharge port 1002, third rotating shaft 1003 and handle 1004. Valve core 1001 is movably installed inside valve core 1001. Discharge port 1002 is opened inside valve core 1001. Third rotating shaft 1003 is fixedly connected to the top of valve core 1001. Handle 1004 is movably connected to the top of third rotating shaft 1003. Discharge port 1002 is located inside the second pipe 8 and the third pipe 9.

[0035] By rotating the handle 1004, the third rotating shaft 1003 is driven to rotate, which in turn causes the valve core 1001 to rotate, controlling the connection between the discharge port 1002 and the second pipe 8 and the third pipe 9, thereby controlling the flow direction of the liquid. When the discharge port 1002 is connected to the second pipe 8, the liquid re-enters the feed funnel 2 for crushing and stirring again. When the discharge port 1002 is connected to the third rotating shaft 1003, the liquid can enter the filter assembly 11 and then be discharged after filtration.

[0036] The filter assembly 11 includes a second housing 1101, a filter barrel 1102, an annular support block 1103, and a discharge pipe 1104. The second housing 1101 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first housing 1. The filter barrel 1102 is movably installed inside the second housing 1101. The annular support block 1103 is fixedly connected inside the second housing 1101 and located at the bottom of the filter barrel 1102. The discharge pipe 1104 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second housing 1101.

[0037] When the extract containing plant residues and other impurities enters the filter assembly 11 through the third pipe 9, the liquid passes through the filter barrel 1102, the residues are trapped above the filter barrel 1102, and the filtered liquid flows out through the discharge pipe 1104. The annular support block 1103 provides stable support for the filter barrel 1102, preventing it from deforming or being damaged during the filtration process.

[0038] The top of the first outer shell 1 is fixedly connected to a support rod 13, and there are multiple support rods 13 arranged in a ring. The bottom of the support rod 13 is fixedly connected to a base plate 12, and the top of the base plate 12 is fixedly connected to a caster wheel 14, and there are multiple caster wheels 14 arranged in a ring.

[0039] When in use, the casters 14 allow the entire device to be moved easily, and the support rods 13 and the base plate 12 ensure the stability of the device when moving and stationary.

[0040] A heating tube 15 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the first outer casing 1, and there are multiple heating tubes 15.

[0041] The heating tube 15 generates heat when energized, providing heat to the extract and plant materials inside the first outer shell 1, raising the temperature and accelerating the extraction of active ingredients. The heating temperature and time of the heating tube 15 can be controlled according to the requirements of different plant materials and extraction processes.

[0042] Working principle: First, natural plant materials are fed into the feed funnel 2.

[0043] At this time, the first drive motor 501 is started, and the first drive motor 501 drives the second rotating shaft 401 to rotate. The drive belt 504 drives the first rotating shaft 302 to rotate, so that the crushing blade 303 crushes the plant material entering the feed hopper 2 and cuts it into smaller particles. The crushed plant material falls into the first outer shell 1.

[0044] After crushing is complete, the second rotating shaft 401 continues to rotate, driving the stirring rod 402 to stir the plant material inside the first outer shell 1. At this time, the extraction solvent has been added to the first outer shell 1, and stirring ensures that the plant material and the extraction solvent come into full contact. At the same time, according to the extraction process requirements, the heating tube 15 can be activated to heat the mixture, accelerating the dissolution and extraction of the active ingredients. During the stirring and heating process, this continues for a period of time to ensure that the active ingredients are fully extracted into the solvent.

[0045] When the plant material is more thoroughly stirred, the second drive motor 703 is started, which drives the connected gear 702 to rotate. Through gear meshing, it drives another gear 702 to rotate, thereby generating suction or pressure inside the sealing cover 701, drawing the liquid in the first outer shell 1 into the first pipe 6.

[0046] Then, by rotating the handle 1004, the second pipe 8 and the first pipe 6 are connected through the discharge port 1002. The pump body 7 pumps part of the mixture of plant raw materials and extract from the first outer shell 1 back into the feed funnel 2 through the first pipe 6 and the second pipe 8, where it is crushed again by the crushing blades 303 of the crushing component 3, thus achieving cyclic crushing. Through multiple cycles of crushing, the plant raw materials can be crushed more thoroughly.

[0047] After extraction, turn the handle 1004 of valve 10 to connect the outlet 1002 with the third pipe 9. The extract containing plant residues and other impurities enters the filter assembly 11 through the third pipe 9. As the liquid passes through the filter barrel 1102, the residues are trapped above the filter barrel 1102. The filtered liquid flows out through the outlet pipe 1104, resulting in a relatively pure concentrated extract of natural plants.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
