Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sealing device technology, and in particular to a sealing device for a plant essential oil distillation kettle. Background Technology

[0002] Plant essential oil distillation is a method of extracting essential oils from aromatic plants using steam distillation. It is the most common and purest method for essential oil extraction, yielding 95% of aromatic plant essential oils. The basic principle is to use steam to vaporize the essential oil components in the plant material through heating, and then collect the vaporized essential oil by condensation. Because water and essential oils are immiscible, the lighter essential oil will separate and rise to the top of the liquid. This essential oil is then separated and collected in a sealed bottle for storage. This method is suitable not only for plant parts containing aromatic substances such as flowers, leaves, wood chips, resins, and root bark, but is also a highly efficient and pure method for essential oil extraction.

[0003] In the prior art, such as the Chinese patent publication number CN218306221U, a sealing device for a chemical distillation kettle includes a distillation kettle body. A motor is installed at the upper end of the distillation kettle body, and a rotating rod is installed at the lower end of the motor. The rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the distillation kettle body. A stirring rod is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the lower end of the rotating rod. A sealing device is installed at the rotating part of the distillation kettle body and the rotating rod. The sealing device includes an inner sealing sleeve, an outer sealing sleeve, a sealing ring, and an annular groove. The outer surface of the rotating rod is provided with the inner sealing sleeve, and the inner sealing sleeve is provided inside the distillation kettle body. This chemical distillation kettle sealing device has a sealing ring inside the sealing device, which increases the sealing area and strengthens the sealing effect. A support device is also provided inside the inner sealing sleeve, with a supporting spring inside. This support device continuously supports and pushes the inner sealing sleeve outward, ensuring that the inner sealing sleeve is always in contact with and in close contact with the outer sealing sleeve, thus sealing the distillation kettle body.

[0004] In actual production, this type of chemical distillation kettle sealing device relies solely on a motor, stirring rod, inner sealing sleeve, outer sealing sleeve, sealing ring, and annular groove to keep the inner sealing sleeve in constant contact with the outer sealing sleeve, thus sealing the distillation kettle body. Although this type of chemical distillation kettle sealing device can also seal the distillation kettle, it requires manual sealing by workers. This device does not have an automatic sealing device, which increases the labor intensity of workers and results in poor performance of this equipment. Therefore, it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sealing device for a plant essential oil distillation kettle, which has the effect of automatically sealing the distillation kettle effectively.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a sealing device for a plant essential oil distillation kettle, comprising a box body, a sealing tank inside the box body, a tank opening inside the sealing tank, a turntable rotatably connected to the upper surface of the box body, a rotating column fixedly connected to the upper surface of the turntable, a top plate fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rotating column, a hydraulic tank fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate, a hydraulic hole inside the hydraulic tank, a hydraulic press fixedly connected inside the hydraulic tank, a sealing cover outside the tank opening, the output end of the hydraulic press penetrating into the hydraulic hole and fixedly connected to the sealing cover, a support leg fixedly connected to the bottom of the box body, a support plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the support leg, a motor base fixedly connected to the outside of the box body, and a guide ring bracket fixedly connected to the outside of the sealing cover.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the worker rotates the sealing cover to one side using a turntable, puts the plant debris into the inside of the sealed container through the opening, and then rotates the turntable again to rotate the sealing cover directly below the opening. Then, the hydraulic press is started, and the output end of the hydraulic press drives the sealing cover downward to cover the opening. After covering the opening, the sealing cover is placed on the upper surface of the supporting steel ring. Then, the container is heated to achieve the process of sealing and distilling the plant debris in the distillation vessel. Through the above operation, the worker is spared from manually sealing the distillation vessel each time during distillation, achieving a better automatic sealing effect for the distillation vessel.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that a guide rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the housing, and a guide ring is fixedly connected to the outside of the guide ring bracket.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sealing cap moves downward under force, the guide ring penetrates into the interior of the guide rod, thus preventing the sealing cap from shifting when it descends to seal the can opening.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that a push handle is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating column, and the number of push handles is two.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the worker can rotate the turntable, the rotating column, and the top plate by holding the push handle, which makes it easier to remove the sealing cover when adding plant debris into the sealed container.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that a supporting steel ring is fixedly connected to the outside of the can opening, and the upper surface of the supporting steel ring is provided with a frosted layer.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the diameter of the can opening of the sealed can is reduced by the reduction of the support steel ring, which makes it easier for the edge of the sealing cap to fully cover the can opening when the sealing cap is placed on the upper surface of the support steel ring.

[0014] A further feature of this invention is that a sealing gasket is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sealing cover, and the thickness of the sealing gasket is five centimeters.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the five-centimeter sealing gasket further improves the sealing effect of the sealing cap.

[0016] A further feature of this invention is that an alignment pointer is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sealing cover, and an alignment arrow module is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the housing.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sealing cap rotates back to its original position, the alignment pointer and the alignment arrow module are observed to determine whether the can opening is directly below the sealing cap.

[0018] A further feature of this invention is that a heating layer is provided at the bottom of the sealed container, and a heating wire is provided inside the heating layer.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the worker energizes the heating wire, which then starts working, raising the temperature of the heating layer and performing the distillation of the plant residue in the sealed tank.

[0020] A further feature of this invention is that a motor is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the motor base, a rotating disk is provided on the outside of the motor base, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating disk.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor is started, and the motor begins to work, driving the rotating disk to rotate.

[0022] A further feature of this invention is that a cleaning cotton rod is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating disk, and the number of the cleaning cotton rods is two.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, after distillation is completed and the sealing cap is opened, liquid and residue remain at the bottom of the sealing cap. The rotating disc drives two cleaning cotton rods to rotate and clean the bottom of the sealing cap.

[0024] A further feature of this invention is that: an air guide tube is provided on the outside of the sealing cover, a threaded hole is provided inside the air guide tube, a valve is provided on the outside of the air guide tube, and a stud is fixedly connected to the bottom of the valve, with the stud threaded into the threaded hole.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the gas generated during distillation in the sealed container after opening the valve is collected through a gas guide pipe. The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0026] 1. This utility model, through the arrangement of the box body, sealed tank, tank opening, turntable, rotating column, top plate, hydraulic tank, hydraulic hole, hydraulic press, sealing cover, support legs, support plate, motor base, and guide ring bracket, allows the worker to rotate the sealing cover to one side via the turntable, place the plant debris into the sealed tank through the tank opening, and then rotate the turntable again to rotate the sealing cover directly below the tank opening. The hydraulic press is then started, and its output end drives the sealing cover downwards, covering the tank opening. After covering the tank opening, the sealing cover is placed on the upper surface of the supporting steel ring. The box body is then heated, enabling the plant debris to be sealed and distilled in the distillation vessel. This operation avoids the need for manual sealing of the distillation vessel each time during distillation, achieving an automatic and highly effective sealing effect.

[0027] 2. This utility model, through the arrangement of the guide rod, guide ring, push handle, supporting steel ring ring, frosted layer, sealing gasket, alignment pointer, alignment arrow module, heating layer, heating wire, motor, rotating disk, cleaning cotton rod, air guide pipe, threaded hole, valve, and stud, ensures that when the sealing cover moves downward under force, the guide ring penetrates into the interior of the guide rod. This prevents the sealing cover from shifting when it descends to seal the can opening. The worker, holding the push handle, rotates the turntable, rotating column, and top plate, facilitating the removal of the sealing cover when adding plant debris to the sealed can. The supporting steel ring ring reduces the diameter of the can opening, ensuring that the edge of the sealing cover is fully positioned on the supporting steel ring ring when placed on its upper surface. The 5-centimeter sealing gasket further enhances the sealing effect of the lid. When the lid rotates back to its original position, the alignment pointer and the alignment arrow module are observed to determine if the lid opening is directly below the lid. The worker then energizes the heating wire, which begins to work, raising the temperature of the heating layer and distilling the plant residue inside the sealed container. The motor is then started, driving the rotating disc to rotate. After distillation, the lid is opened, revealing liquid and residue residue at the bottom. The rotating disc drives two cleaning cotton rods to clean the bottom of the lid. The gas produced during distillation inside the sealed container is collected through a gas guide pipe after the valve is opened. Attached Figure Description

An externally fixed guide ring bracket 14 is provided. The worker rotates the sealing cover 10 to one side using a turntable 3, places the plant debris into the sealed container 2 through the opening 9, and then rotates the turntable 3 again to position the sealing cover 10 directly below the opening 9. Next, the hydraulic press 8 is started, and its output drives the sealing cover 10 downwards, covering the opening 9. After covering the opening 9, the sealing cover 10 is placed on the upper surface of the supporting steel ring 18. Then, the container 1 is heated, enabling the plant debris to be sealed and distilled in the distillation vessel. This operation avoids the need for manual sealing of the distillation vessel each time, achieving excellent automatic sealing. The upper surface of the container 1 is fixedly connected to... A guide rod 15 is provided, and a guide ring 16 is fixedly connected to the outside of the guide ring bracket 14. When the sealing cover 10 moves downward under force, the guide ring 16 penetrates into the inside of the guide rod 15.

A gas guide pipe 28 is located outside the sealing cover 10, with a threaded hole 29 inside. A valve 30 is located outside the gas guide pipe 28, with a stud 31 fixedly connected to its bottom. The stud 31 is threaded into the threaded hole 29. When the valve 30 is opened, the gas generated during distillation inside the sealed container 2 is collected through the gas guide pipe 28.

[0036] In this invention, the worker rotates the sealing cover 10 to one side using the turntable 3, places the plant debris into the sealed container 2 through the opening 9, and then rotates the turntable 3 again to position the sealing cover 10 directly below the opening 9. Next, the hydraulic press 8 is started, and its output drives the sealing cover 10 downwards, covering the opening 9. After covering the opening 9, the sealing cover 10 is placed on the upper surface of the supporting steel ring 18. Then, the container 1 is heated, causing the plant debris to... The process of sealing the distillation vessel through the above operations avoids the need for workers to manually seal the distillation vessel each time during distillation, achieving a superior automatic sealing effect. When the sealing cap 10 moves downward under force, the guide ring 16 penetrates into the guide rod 15, ensuring that the sealing cap 10 does not shift when it descends to seal the opening 9. The worker holds the push handle 17 to rotate the turntable 3, rotating column 4, and top plate 5, facilitating the addition of plant debris to the sealed container 2. When the cap 10 is removed, the supporting steel ring 18 reduces the diameter of the opening 9 of the sealed container 2, ensuring that the edge of the cap 10 fully covers the opening 9 when placed on the upper surface of the supporting steel ring 18. The five-centimeter sealing gasket 20 further enhances the sealing effect of the cap 10. When the cap 10 is rotated back to its original position, the alignment pointer 21 and the alignment arrow module 22 are observed to determine whether the opening 9 is directly below the cap 10. The worker then energizes the heating wire 24. 4. Start working. The temperature of the heating layer 23 rises, and the plant residue in the sealed tank 2 is heated and distilled. Start the motor 25. The motor 25 drives the rotating disk 26 to rotate.
