Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oregano essential oil technology, specifically an oregano essential oil extraction device. Background Technology

[0002] Oregano essential oil is a natural volatile oil extracted from the leaves and stems of the oregano (Origanum vulgare) plant, primarily through steam distillation. Its main chemical components are carvacrol and thymol, two phenolic compounds that give oregano essential oil its powerful antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, oregano essential oil also contains other volatile components such as artemisinin and thymol, the content of which varies depending on geographical location and extraction method. Oregano essential oil has a unique spicy, herbal, and camphor aroma and is commonly used in food additives, cosmetics, and personal care products. It is also widely used in traditional medicine for antibacterial purposes, immune support, and the treatment of digestive system disorders.

[0003] A high-efficiency extraction device for oregano essential oil, as disclosed in publication number CN216236916U, includes a base with an electric heating plate, an extraction tank mounted on the base, a spherical condenser connected to the steam outlet of the extraction tank, and an oil-water separator located at the outlet of the spherical condenser. A circular mesh is rotatably fitted inside the extraction tank, and a stirring element is installed within the mesh. The circular mesh and the stirring element rotate at different speeds via differential gears. This invention, by using a rotatable circular mesh inside the extraction tank, ensures uniform heating of the oregano. Furthermore, the differential gear mechanism between the mesh and the stirring element accelerates the heating of the oregano, resulting in excellent extraction effect and further improved extraction efficiency.
