Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Essential oil extraction refers to the process of extracting high concentrations of aromatic substances from parts of plants such as flowers, leaves, stems, roots, or fruits. It is mainly carried out through distillation, which uses steam to evaporate the essential oil components in plants, and then cools and liquefies them to separate the oil and water.

[0003] The patent application CN222605456U discloses a rose essential oil extraction device, which includes a tank and a cover that are fixedly connected by bolts. The top of the cover is provided with an inlet and the bottom of the tank is provided with an outlet.

[0004] The above-mentioned extraction device increases the contact area between rose petals and extractant, improving extraction quality and efficiency. However, the plant pieces are relatively large, which prevents sufficient contact between the plant and steam, making it inconvenient to chop them during feeding. Furthermore, waste remains after extraction, which is inconvenient to clean and discharge. Utility Model Content

[0025] See Figure 2 Furthermore, the feeding assembly 4 includes a screen plate 7 and a feeding hopper 14. A cone 6 is fixedly installed inside the tank body 1 near the bottom. The screen plate 7 is installed outside the cone 6. A motor 8 is installed at the bottom of the cone 6. An electric heating plate 9 is installed on the inner wall of the bottom of the tank body 1. An opening and closing door 10 is movably installed on the outer wall of the tank body 1. A grinding cylinder 11 is fixedly installed in the center inside the tank body 1. Several cutters 12 are installed outside the output shaft of the motor 8 and inside the grinding cylinder 11. A set of spiral blades 13 are fixedly welded to the outer ring of the several cutters 12. The feeding hopper 14 is installed through the top of the tank body 1. A sealing cover 16 is connected to the top of the feeding hopper 14. An inclined tube 15 is installed between the outside of the feeding hopper 14 and the condenser 2.

[0026] The output shaft of the motor 8 passes through the inside of the cone 6 and the grinding cylinder 11. One end of the opening and closing door 10 is connected to the tank 1 by a hinge. The motor 8 drives the cutter 12 and the spiral blade 13 inside the grinding cylinder 11 to rotate, thus chopping the plant.

[0027] The grinding cylinder 11 is vertically positioned directly below the feed hopper 14. A steam collection hood is installed at the bottom of the feed hopper 14. Plants enter through the feed hopper 14 and fall into the grinding cylinder 11 for grinding. Steam enters the feed hopper 14 through the gap at the top of the grinding cylinder 11 and is then discharged.

[0028] The outer wall of the spiral blade 13 is slidably disposed on the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 11. The feed hopper 14 is interconnected with the interior of the condenser 2 through the inclined tube 15. The spiral blade 13 is used to scrape off the plants on the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 11 and convey them downward.

[0029] Specifically, the plants enter through the feed hopper 14 and fall into the grinding cylinder 11. The motor 8 drives the cutter 12 and the spiral blade 13 to rotate, chopping the plants. The spiral blade 13 scrapes off the plants adhering to the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 11 and conveys them downwards. The plants are evenly distributed on the screen plate 7 through the cone 6. Steam enters the feed hopper 14 through the gap at the top of the grinding cylinder 11 and is discharged into the condenser 2.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 Furthermore, based on Embodiment 1, the cleaning component 5 includes a rotating ring 17 and a conical tooth 18. The rotating ring 17 is fixedly installed on the outer ring of the sieve plate 7, the conical tooth 18 is movably installed on the inner wall of the tank body 1, a rocker plate 19 is installed on the outer side of the conical tooth 18, and a toothed groove 20 is provided at the bottom of the sieve plate 7.

[0032] The sieve plate 7 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the tank body 1 via the rotating ring 17. The shaft of the rocker plate 19 passes through the inner wall of the tank body 1 and is fixedly connected to the conical teeth 18. The rotating ring 17 enables the sieve plate 7 to rotate and prevents it from falling off.

[0033] The conical teeth 18 and the tooth groove 20 are connected in an meshing manner. The conical teeth 18 drive the screen plate 7 to rotate through the meshing of the tooth groove 20, so as to facilitate the cleaning of the screen plate 7.

[0034] Specifically, by opening the door 10 and shaking the rocker 19, the conical teeth 18 drive the screen plate 7 to rotate, and the waste material on the top of the screen plate 7 is cleaned out in sequence.

[0035] In actual operation, the plants from which essential oils need to be extracted are added into the tank 1. The electric heating plate 9 heats the water at the bottom of the tank 1, and the steam carries the essential oils from the plants to the condenser 2. The steam is condensed and dripped into the separation tank 3 through the condenser 2. The essential oils are located on the top layer of the hydrosol and are collected separately.

[0036] During feeding and grinding, plants enter through the feed hopper 14 and fall into the grinding cylinder 11. The motor 8 drives the cutter 12 and the spiral blade 13 to rotate through the shaft, which cuts the plants in the grinding cylinder 11. The spiral blade 13 scrapes off the plants adhering to the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 11 and conveys them downwards. The plants are evenly distributed on the screen plate 7 through the cone 6. The sealing cover 16 is connected to the top of the feed hopper 14 for sealing. Steam enters the feed hopper 14 through the gap at the top of the grinding cylinder 11 and is discharged.

[0037] During cleaning, open the door 10, shake the rocker 19 to rotate the bevel gear 18, and through the meshing of the tooth groove 20, the bevel gear 18 drives the screen plate 7 to rotate, and the waste material on the top of the screen plate 7 is cleaned out in sequence.
