Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of fragrance and flavor extraction equipment, and in particular to a fragrance extraction device. Background Technology

[0002] A fragrance extraction apparatus is an important device used to extract aromatic components from plant materials. This apparatus typically utilizes solvent extraction, where plant materials (such as petals, bark, and roots) are brought into contact with a suitable solvent under specific conditions, allowing the fragrance components to dissolve in the solvent and thus achieving efficient extraction of the fragrance.

[0003] In the extraction process of spices, solid spices and solvents need to be added. After extraction, the solid spices form solid residue. Usually, the solid spices and solvents are mixed together, and the solid residue is difficult to separate after extraction. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the process. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a fragrance extraction device.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A fragrance extraction apparatus includes an extraction tank with legs; a drain pipe is provided at the lower end of the extraction tank, and an inlet pipe is provided at the upper end of the extraction tank; multiple feed ports are arranged vertically at intervals on the side wall of the extraction tank; multiple limiting rods are evenly distributed inside the extraction tank along the outer periphery of the feed ports; a tube is provided on the feed port, and an openable and closable cover is provided at the end of the tube; a material barrel is inserted into each tube, and the material barrel is provided with several through holes, and the material barrel is located between the corresponding limiting rods.

[0007] Preferably, the material bucket includes a cylindrical body with one end open, and a bucket lid detachably connected to the open end of the cylindrical body; the through hole is provided on the cylindrical body.

[0008] Preferably, the bucket lid is provided with a handle.

[0009] Preferably, it also includes a circulation pump, the inlet of which is connected to the lower part of the extraction tank via a first pipe, and the outlet of which is connected to the upper part of the extraction tank via a second pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the cover is connected to the extraction tank via an adjustable mechanism; the adjustable mechanism includes a handle rod connected to the middle of the cover via a ball joint, a pressure rod rotatably connected to the extraction tank at one end, a screw rod rotatably connected to the extraction tank at the other end, and a handwheel threaded onto the screw rod; the handle rod is threaded onto the pressure rod, and the other end of the pressure rod is provided with an opening groove, into which the screw rod can rotate.

[0011] Preferably, the extraction tank is provided with a base, and the pressure rod is rotatably connected to the base.

[0014] The above technical solution has the following advantages:

[0015] This invention utilizes a perforated material container to separate solid fragrance components from the solvent. After the extraction process, the solvent essentially no longer contains any solid fragrance components, greatly simplifying subsequent solvent processing steps and reducing its complexity. Simultaneously, all solid residues are retained inside the material container, which can be easily and effectively removed by simply disassembling the container. This ensures the purity of the extraction process, simplifies cleaning, and makes the entire production process smoother and more efficient. This device not only improves production efficiency but also reduces resource waste. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0027] As shown in the attached figure, a fragrance extraction device includes an extraction tank 2 with legs 1; a drain pipe 3 is provided at the lower end of the extraction tank 2, and a drain valve can be installed on the drain pipe 3; an inlet pipe 4 is provided at the upper end of the extraction tank 2; three feed ports (not shown in the figure, but the same applies) are arranged vertically at intervals on the side wall of the extraction tank 2; three limiting rods 5 are evenly distributed around the outer periphery of the feed ports inside the extraction tank 2; a pipe body 6 is provided on the feed port, and an openable and closable cover 7 is provided at the end of the pipe body 6; a material barrel 8 is inserted into each pipe body 6, and the material barrel 8 is provided with several through holes 9, and the material barrel 8 is located between the corresponding limiting rods 5. After the material barrel 8 enters the extraction tank 2 from the pipe body 6, it is supported on the limiting rods 5 and constrained by the limiting rods 5.

[0028] As a preferred technical solution in this example, the material bin 8 includes a cylindrical body 91 with one end open, and a bin cover 92 detachably connected to the open end of the cylindrical body 91. Specifically, the bin cover 92 and the material bin 9 can adopt common structures such as threaded connection or snap-fit ​​connection; the through hole 9 is provided on the cylindrical body 91. Obviously, the material bin 8 can also adopt other structural forms, such as a metal mesh bin.

[0029] As a further improvement to this example, in order to facilitate the removal of the material bucket 8 from the extraction tank 2, a handle 93 is provided on the bucket lid 92.

[0030] As a further improvement to this example, it also includes a circulation pump 10. The inlet of the circulation pump 10 is connected to the lower part of the extraction tank 2 via pipe 11, and the outlet of the circulation pump 10 is connected to the upper part of the extraction tank 2 via pipe 12. The circulation pump 10 can increase the flow of solvent within the extraction tank 2, thereby improving the extraction efficiency.

[0031] As a preferred technical solution in this example, the cover 7 is connected to the extraction tank 2 via an adjustable mechanism. The adjustable mechanism includes a handle 101 connected to the middle of the cover 7 via a ball joint, a pressure rod 102 rotatably connected to the extraction tank 2 at one end, a screw 103 rotatably connected to the extraction tank 2 at the other end, and a handwheel 104 threaded onto the screw 103. The handle 101 is threaded onto the pressure rod 102, and the other end of the pressure rod 102 is provided with an opening groove (not shown in the figure, the rest is the same). The screw 103 can rotate into the opening groove. When the screw 102 enters the opening groove, rotating the handwheel 104 achieves pre-tightening of the cover 7, and then rotating the handle 101 achieves a tight connection between the cover 7 and the tank 6.

[0032] As a specific technical solution in this example, the extraction tank 2 is provided with a base 105, and the pressure rod 102 is rotatably connected to the base 105. The extraction tank 2 is provided with a base 106, and the screw 103 is rotatably connected to the base 106.

[0033] As a further improvement to this example, in order to improve sealing reliability, a sealing ring (not shown in the figure, but the same applies to the other parts) is provided on the contact surface between the cover 7 and the tube 6.

[0034] During the extraction process, the material to be processed must first be accurately weighed and pre-filled into the material container 8, ensuring uniform distribution and compliance with process requirements. Then, the material container 8 is smoothly loaded into the extraction tank 2 through the pipe 6, ensuring it is correctly positioned. Next, to ensure sealing and safety during the extraction process, the cover 7 on the pipe 6 must be carefully closed; this step is crucial to prevent solvent leakage and external contamination. After completing the above preparations, an appropriate amount of extraction solvent is added to the tank through the inlet pipe 4 connected to the extraction tank 2. The appropriate solvent type and dosage are selected according to specific process requirements to ensure optimal extraction results. During the extraction process, the circulation pump 10 can be activated as needed to agitate the material, ensuring sufficient solvent contact and accelerating the extraction efficiency of the active ingredients. This operation helps improve extraction speed and quality, ensuring that the target components in the material are efficiently released into the solvent. After the extraction process is complete, the used solvent must be promptly discharged through the drain pipe 3 for subsequent processing or recycling. This is a crucial step in ensuring production continuity and meeting environmental requirements. Finally, the previously sealed cover 7 is opened, and the extracted material container 8 is carefully pulled out for centralized and rapid processing, ensuring the smooth operation of the entire production process. This process achieves optimized management from material preparation to final processing.

[0035] This invention utilizes a material container 8 with through holes 9 to separate solid fragrance components from the solvent. After the extraction process, the solvent essentially no longer contains solid fragrance components, greatly simplifying subsequent solvent processing steps and reducing its complexity. Simultaneously, all solid residues are retained inside the material container 8. By simply removing the material container 8, these solid residues can be conveniently and effectively discharged, ensuring the purity of the extraction process and simplifying cleaning, making the entire production process smoother and more efficient.
