[0002] Flavors and fragrances are widely used in many industries such as food, beverages, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, and their quality and purity directly affect the quality of the final product. Distillation is a key separation and purification technology commonly used in the production of flavors and fragrances. Through distillation, different components in flavors and fragrances can be separated according to their differences in boiling point, thereby obtaining high-purity target components.
[0003] Currently, the distillation kettles widely used in the production of fragrances and flavors often have fragrance residues adhering to their inner walls after completing a round of distillation. If they are not cleaned in time, the residues will be incorporated into the new material when new raw materials are added for distillation, thus affecting the purification effect of the fragrances.
[0004] In response to the technical problem that after a distillation kettle completes one round of distillation, there will be fragrance residue inside, which will affect the purification effect of the next round of fragrance, this application proposes a distillation kettle for producing fragrances and flavorings.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Reference Figures 1-3 An embodiment of this utility model provides a distillation kettle for producing fragrances and flavors, comprising a kettle body 1, a top cover 2 at the top of the kettle body 1, a motor 3 fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 2, a rotating shaft 4 fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor 3, the outer wall of the rotating shaft 4 being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top cover 2, a large gear 5 fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 4, small gears 6 meshing with the four sides of the outer wall of the large gear 5, an L-shaped connecting rod 7 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the small gear 6, a rotating shaft 8 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the L-shaped connecting rod 7, a stirring blade 9 fixedly connected to the four sides of the outer wall of the rotating shaft 8 at one end of its inner side, a support frame 10 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the kettle body 1, the outer wall of the L-shaped connecting rod 7 being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 10, a plurality of heating coils 17 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the kettle body 1, a feed pipe 18 and a distillation pipe 20 fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 2 respectively, and a discharge pipe 19 fixedly connected to the bottom of the kettle body 1.
[0025] Specifically, a controller is installed at the front end of the vessel body 1. The controller controls the motor 3 and the heating coil 17 through an electrical connection. When the heating coil 17 is energized, the heating coil 17 generates heat to heat the inside of the vessel body 1. The distillation tube 20 is connected to an external condensing device. During evaporation, the distilled gas enters the condensing device from the distillation tube 20 for cooling, thereby cooling and collecting the distilled gas. The remaining residual liquid will be discharged from the discharge pipe 19 at the bottom. Control valves are installed on the outer walls of the feed pipe 18, the distillation tube 20, and the discharge pipe 19.
[0026] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5Fixed blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the top left and right sides of the vessel body 1. Insert rods 13 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed blocks 11. Locking blocks 14 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the left and right insert rods 13. The top cover 2 has slots 15 on both the left and right sides. The shapes of the locking blocks 14 and the slots 15 are matched. Springs 16 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the left and right locking blocks 14. The opposite ends of the springs 16 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the left and right fixed blocks 11 respectively. Handles 12 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the left and right insert rods 13 for controlling the movement of the insert rods 13.
[0027] Specifically, the top cover 2 has notches on both the left and right sides, which fit into the fixing block 11. Therefore, it is easy to position the top cover 2 when installing it. When the top cover 2 is removed, the large gear 5, the rotating shaft 4 and the motor 3 will be removed together. The top of the top cover 2 is fixedly connected to the two sides, making it easy to remove the top cover 2. When the worker cleans the inside of the kettle body 1, the cleaning water can be discharged from the discharge pipe 19 at the bottom.
[0028] Working principle: During use, the operator adds the raw liquid of fragrance and flavoring into the vessel body 1 through the feed pipe 18, then starts the heating coil 17 to heat the inside of the vessel body 1. At the same time, the motor 3 is started, which drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate. The rotating shaft 4 drives the large gear 5 to rotate, and the large gear 5 drives the small gears 6 on all four sides to rotate. The small gears 6 drive the L-shaped connecting rod 7 to rotate, thus the rotating shaft 8 rotates. The rotating shaft 8 drives the stirring blade 9 to stir the raw liquid inside the vessel body 1, so that it is heated evenly. After evaporation, the inside of the vessel body 1 needs to be cleaned. At this time, the handles 12 on both sides can be pulled to move the insertion rod 13 outward. The insertion rod 13 drives the locking block 14 outward, so that the locking block 14 disengages from the locking groove 15, releasing the restriction on the top cover 2. Then, the top cover 2 can be removed by the handle on the top cover 2 to clean the inside of the vessel body 1.
[0029] 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. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
