Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine essential oil processing technology, and in particular to a refining and purification device for traditional Chinese medicine essential oils. Background Technology
[0002] The refining of Chinese herbal essential oils refers to the process of extracting volatile active ingredients (essential oils) from Chinese medicinal herbs through specific techniques, and then further purifying, concentrating, or optimizing their physicochemical properties. This process combines traditional Chinese medicine theory with modern extraction and separation techniques, aiming to improve the purity, stability, or pharmacological activity of the essential oils, making them more suitable for medicinal, health care, or aromatherapy applications.
[0003] Currently, the filtration and purification process of Chinese herbal essential oils after refining mainly relies on simple filter screen technology. However, this method has significant limitations: Firstly, due to the fixed pore size of the filter screen and the simple filtration mechanism, it is difficult to effectively trap impurities of different particle sizes (especially colloids, microparticles, etc.), resulting in substandard purity of the essential oil and easily affecting the quality of the final product. Secondly, during continuous filtration, impurities easily form a dense accumulation layer on the surface of the filter screen, which can easily cause blockage and reduce its filtration efficiency.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a refining and purification device for traditional Chinese medicine essential oils, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] (1) In this utility model, after the refined Chinese herbal essential oil is injected into the purification box through the feed pipe, it is first subjected to primary centrifugal filtration by the rotating filter cylinder. After the motor is started, it drives the second helical gear to rotate, and then the first helical gear on the connecting rod rotates synchronously through gear meshing, which finally drives the filter cylinder to perform centrifugal motion. The oil after primary filtration falls to the filter screen under the action of gravity. The impurities and essential oil are efficiently separated through the dual filtration mechanism. The synergistic effect of centrifugal filtration and gradient filtration can improve the purification efficiency of essential oil, while ensuring that the physicochemical indicators of the product meet the quality control standards, and providing compliant raw materials for subsequent processes.
[0018] (2) In this utility model, during the rotation of the filter cylinder, the impurities adhering to its inner wall are scraped off in real time by the fixed scraper at the bottom of the top cover, which effectively prevents the blockage caused by the accumulation of impurities; at the same time, the motor drives the second helical gear to mesh with the first helical gear, driving the connecting rod to rotate synchronously, so that the cleaning brush on the connecting rod dynamically cleans the surface of the filter screen, ensuring the permeability of the mesh. This dual cleaning mechanism (scraper and cleaning brush working together) continuously maintains the self-cleaning function of the equipment during centrifugal filtration and gradient filtration, which not only avoids the filter medium from reducing efficiency due to impurity retention, but also ensures the long-term stable operation of the equipment, thereby optimizing the purification process efficiency of Chinese herbal essential oils.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1-4A purification device for refining essential oils of traditional Chinese medicine includes a purification chamber 1. The purification chamber 1 has an internal partition 12, and a filter screen 6 is located above the partition 12. A shaft seat is located at the middle of the upper surface of the bottom of the purification chamber 1, and a connecting rod 11 is located within the shaft seat. The top end of the connecting rod 11 passes through the partition 12 and the filter screen 6 and is fixedly connected to a filter cylinder 4. A top cover 3 is located above the purification chamber 1, and a feed pipe 2 is located at the middle of the top surface of the top cover 3. A scraper 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the top cover 3 inside the filter cylinder 4. A cleaning brush 5 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 11 above the filter screen 6. A motor 13 is fixedly installed on one side of the purification chamber 1, and a second helical gear 14 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 13 inside the purification chamber 1. A first helical gear 9 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 11 below the partition 12. The first helical gear 9 and the second helical gear... The gear 14 is engaged, and the top surface of the top cover 3 is provided with a feed pipe 2 in the middle position. The side surface of the purification box 1 is provided with a discharge pipe 8, and a valve 7 is fixedly installed on the discharge pipe 8. The refined Chinese herbal essential oil is added into the purification box 1 through the feed pipe 2. The Chinese herbal essential oil is initially filtered through the filter cylinder 4. The filtered Chinese herbal essential oil falls onto the filter screen 6 and is filtered again through the filter screen 6, which can improve the filtration effect of the Chinese herbal essential oil and separate the impurities from the Chinese herbal essential oil. The motor 13 on the side surface of the purification box 1 is turned on. The motor 13 drives the second helical gear 14 to rotate. The second helical gear 14 drives the first helical gear 9 on the connecting rod 11 to rotate at the same time, so that the filter cylinder 4 at the top of the first connecting rod 11 rotates, thereby centrifugally filtering the Chinese herbal essential oil and improving the filtration and purification effect of the Chinese herbal essential oil.
[0029] In one embodiment, there are two filter screens 6, which are evenly distributed on both sides of the interior of the purification box 1. The use of two filter screens 6 can improve the filtration and purification effect of the Chinese herbal essential oil, thereby facilitating the filtration of impurities in the Chinese herbal essential oil and improving its purification purity.
[0030] In one embodiment, the cleaning brush 5 is matched with the filter screen 6, and the scraper 15 is matched with the filter cylinder 4. The dual cleaning mechanism (the scraper 15 and the cleaning brush 5 work together) continuously maintains the self-cleaning function of the equipment during centrifugal filtration and gradient filtration. This not only prevents the filter media from reducing efficiency due to impurities, but also ensures the long-term stable operation of the equipment, thereby optimizing the purification process efficiency of Chinese herbal essential oils.
[0031] In one embodiment, positioning blocks 16 are provided on both sides of the bottom surface of the top cover 3, and one end of the positioning block 16 extends into the interior of the positioning groove 17 opened on both sides of the top surface of the purification box 1. The diameter of the positioning block 16 is smaller than the diameter of the positioning groove 17. The positioning block 16 is inserted into the positioning groove 17. The top cover 3 can be limited by the use of the positioning block 16 and the positioning groove 17, thereby maintaining the stability of the top cover 3 on the purification box 1.
[0032] In one embodiment, the bottom surface of the purification box 1 is provided with support legs 10 on both sides. There are multiple support legs 10, and the multiple support legs 10 are evenly distributed in pairs on both sides of the bottom surface of the purification box 1. The support legs 10 are fixedly welded to the purification box 1. The support legs 10 support the purification box 1, which helps to improve the stability of the purification box 1 during use.
[0033] In one embodiment, the top cover 3 is locked to the purification box 1 by a latch 18. By opening the latch 18 and moving the top cover 3 upward, the top cover 3 can be removed from the purification box 1 when the positioning block 16 is away from the positioning groove 17.
[0034] In one embodiment, the front surface of the purification box 1 is provided with a movable plate 19, and the movable plate 19 is fixedly connected to the purification box 1 by screws. By loosening the screws and removing the movable plate 19, the impurities on the filter cylinder 4 and filter screen 6 in the purification box 1 can be cleaned to prevent impurities from remaining on the filter cylinder 4 and filter screen 6, thereby ensuring their normal subsequent use.
[0035] In one embodiment, the first helical gear 9 is matched with the second helical gear 14 to maintain normal rotation, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the equipment.
[0036] In one embodiment, the control circuit of the control panel can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art, which is common knowledge in the field. It is only used and not modified, so the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.
[0037] Working principle:
[0038] In use, the refined herbal essential oil is added to the purification chamber 1 through the feed pipe 2. The essential oil undergoes initial filtration through the filter cylinder 4, and the filtered oil falls onto the filter screen 6 for further filtration. This process improves the filtration effect, separating impurities from the essential oil. By activating the motor 13 on one side of the purification chamber 1, the motor drives the second helical gear 14 to rotate. Simultaneously, the second helical gear 14 drives the first helical gear 9 on the connecting rod 11 to rotate, causing the filter cylinder 4 at the top of the first connecting rod 11 to rotate. This centrifugal filtration of the herbal essential oil improves the filtration efficiency. The filtration and purification effect of the essential oil is achieved through the use of a scraper 15 on the bottom surface of the top cover 3 while the filter cylinder 4 rotates. This scrapes away impurities adhering to the inner wall of the filter cylinder 4, preventing them from accumulating and clogging. The motor 13 is started, which drives the second helical gear 14 to rotate. Simultaneously, the second helical gear 14 drives the first helical gear 9 on the connecting rod 11 to rotate, causing the cleaning brush 5 on the connecting rod 11 to rotate. The cleaning brush 5 cleans away impurities accumulated on the filter screen 6, preventing them from accumulating and clogging, thus maintaining normal filtration efficiency.
[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
