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.

[0018] In actual operation, the internal components of traditional purification devices are mostly spaced at fixed intervals. When faced with different forms or types of essential oil raw materials, they may not be able to be precisely adapted to the actual working conditions, thereby reducing the utilization rate of raw materials and causing waste.

[0019] In view of this, the present invention provides a purification device for essential oil production. This purification device, through the cooperation of an adjusting tank, a carrying tray, a carrying trough, a filter screen, a spring, a baffle plate, a support block, and positioning bolts, enables the adjustment of the distance between multiple carrying trays according to the different essential oil raw materials, thereby adapting to essential oil raw materials of different states or types. This not only improves the utilization rate of raw materials but also allows for flexible control of the extraction intensity, thus meeting the production needs of essential oils of different qualities and greatly improving the working efficiency of the equipment.

[0020] Those skilled in the art can connect the components in this case sequentially. The specific connection and operation sequence should refer to the working principle described below. The detailed connection methods are well-known technologies in the field. The working principle and process are mainly described below.

[0021] Example 1: By Figure 1-4 It is known that an essential oil purification device includes a base plate 1, a steam generator 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, a purification tank 3 arranged above the steam generator 2, and a fixing frame 31 arranged inside the purification tank 3. The essential oil purification device also includes an adjustment mechanism 4, a transmission mechanism 5, and a collection mechanism 6. The adjustment mechanism 4 is arranged inside the fixing frame 31; the transmission mechanism 5 is arranged on the top of the purification tank 3; and the collection mechanism 6 is arranged on the side of the purification tank 3. The adjustment mechanism 4 adjusts the height between two sets of essential oil raw materials, the transmission mechanism 5 drives the essential oil raw materials to rotate, and the collection mechanism 6 collects and separates the water-oil mixture during the purification process. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the base plate 1 is generally rectangular in shape and can be made of alloy steel. Support legs are fixedly connected to all four corners of its bottom. The model of the steam generator 2 can be selected according to actual needs, as long as it meets the operational requirements; for example, it can be an LDR0.05-0.7 model. The purification tank 3 is generally cylindrical, with a sealing cover fixedly connected to its top via a flange structure. The bottom of its inner wall is machined with a slope, and its material can be stainless steel. The fixing frame 31 consists of a circular plate and a tubular structure at one end, which are fixed together with screws. Its material can also be stainless steel. In actual operation, the operator connects to the external control of the steam generator 2. The power supply starts the steam generator 2, which delivers high-temperature steam at a set temperature into the purification tank 3, thereby achieving distillation and purification. Operators can adjust the height between two or more groups of essential oil raw materials using the adjustment mechanism 4, according to the needs of different essential oil raw materials, to ensure purification effect. The transmission mechanism 5 can also rotate the essential oil raw materials, allowing for more thorough contact between the purification medium and the raw materials, further improving the purification effect. Finally, the collection mechanism 6 can collect and separate the water-oil mixture during the purification process, ultimately obtaining the purified product. Through the coordination of these various structures, the working stability of the essential oil production purification device is improved. Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism 4 includes an adjustment groove 41, a carrying tray 42, a carrying groove 43, a filter screen 44, a spring 45, a baffle plate 46, a support block 47, and a positioning bolt 48. The adjustment groove 41 is formed on both sides of the inner wall of the fixed frame 31. Two carrying trays 42 are provided, both of which are located inside the fixed frame 31, and their outer walls are slidably engaged with the inner walls of the two adjustment grooves 41 respectively. Multiple carrying grooves 43 are provided, each formed on the top of one of the two carrying trays 42. Multiple filter screens 44 are provided, each fixedly connected to the inner wall of one of the multiple carrying grooves 43. Multiple springs 45 are provided, each of which is located between the two carrying trays 42, and each of which is fixedly connected to a carrying groove 43 at its top. The bottom of the tray 42; the baffle plate 46 is fixedly connected to the end of multiple springs 45, and its bottom is attached to the top of another tray 42; four support blocks 47 are provided, which are slidably connected to the inner walls of two adjustment grooves 41, and their tops are attached to the bottom sides of the two trays 42 respectively; four positioning bolts 48 are provided, which are threadedly connected to the inner walls of the four support blocks 47, and their outer walls are movably connected to the inner walls of the two adjustment grooves 41 respectively; wherein, through the cooperation of the adjustment grooves 41, trays 42, grooves 43, filter screens 44, springs 45, baffle plates 46, support blocks 47 and positioning bolts 48, the height between the two sets of essential oil raw materials is adjusted; In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that there are two regulating channels 41, located on both sides of the inner wall of the fixed frame 31, with a cross-section resembling a cross. Two or more carrying trays 42 can be provided, depending on actual needs. The trays can be made of stainless steel and are generally circular, with a mesh structure to allow steam to circulate. Multiple circular through holes are provided on the surface, and stainless steel tubular carrying channels 43 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of these through holes. The carrying channels 43 have a cross-section resembling a T. A filter screen 44 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the carrying channels 43. T-shaped sliders are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the carrying trays 42, allowing these sliders to slide along the inner wall of the regulating channels 41. The filter screen 44 can be made of stainless steel and has… The mesh size can be selected according to actual needs, as long as it meets the working requirements, for example, 80 mesh. Multiple springs 45 are provided, their number matching the number of loading slots 43. They are made of stainless steel, and their specific elastic coefficient can be selected according to actual needs, as long as it meets the working requirements. A set of springs 45 is provided between two loading trays 42. The material of the baffle plate 46 is the same as that of the loading tray 42. A baffle plate 46 is fixedly connected to the bottom of a set of springs 45. Four support blocks 47 are provided, or more can be provided, the specific number depending on the number of loading trays 42. They are made of stainless steel and are generally rectangular blocks that can slide inside the adjusting groove 41 but cannot rotate. The number of positioning bolts 48 can be set according to the support blocks 47, corresponding one-to-one. A washer is attached to the nut of the positioning bolt 48, and the other side of the washer is attached to the outer wall of the fixing frame 31, thus forming an 'H'-shaped fixing structure with the support block 47. The carrying tray 42 can be configured in two styles: one with a spring 45 and a baffle plate 46, and the other without these two structures. In actual use, after the operator opens the purification tank 3, the fixing frame 31 is removed, and both types of carrying trays 42 are taken out. The raw materials to be processed are placed inside both types of carrying trays 42. Then, the carrying tray 42 with the spring 45 and baffle plate 46 is aligned with the bottom of the fixing frame 31 first, and then slid into the fixing frame 31. The sliders on both sides of the outer wall of the carrying tray 42 slide inside the adjusting groove 41 until they slide into the adjusting groove 41. At the end, after that, slide the two positioning bolts 48 with support blocks 47 along the inner wall of the adjustment groove 41 until the top of the support blocks 47 contacts the bottom of the tray 42. At this time, rotate the two positioning bolts 48 counterclockwise. The two positioning bolts 48 will drive the two support blocks 47 to move horizontally inside the adjustment groove 41, thereby pressing against the inner wall of the adjustment groove 41. At this time, one tray 42 is fixed to the inner wall of the fixing frame 31. Then, take another tray 42 (without spring 45 and barrier plate 46) and repeat the above operation to fix it to the inner wall of the fixing frame 31. At the same time, the inner wall of its top tray 43 is in contact with the bottom of the barrier plate 46. As the second tray 42 moves, the barrier plate 46 compresses the spring 45.Spring 45 applies a reaction force to baffle plate 46, causing the bottom of baffle plate 46 to firmly adhere to the top of container 43, thus preventing leakage of essential oil raw materials inside container 43. In actual operation, one container 42 without spring 45 and baffle plate 46 can be installed at the bottom, while multiple container 42s with spring 45 and baffle plate 46 can be installed, as long as the operation is satisfactory. This allows for adjustment of the distance between multiple container 42s according to the different essential oil raw materials, adapting to different states or types of essential oil raw materials. This not only improves raw material utilization but also allows for flexible control of extraction intensity, thereby meeting the production needs of essential oils of different qualities. Furthermore, the transmission mechanism 5 includes a servo motor 51, a transmission rod 52, a first gear 53, a second gear 54, and a connecting seat 55. The servo motor 51 is fixedly connected to the top of the purification tank 3; the transmission rod 52 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 51, and its end is rotatably connected to the top of the purification tank 3 through a sealed bearing; the first gear 53 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 52; the second gear 54 is meshed with the outer wall of the first gear 53; the connecting seat 55 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second gear 54, and extends into the interior of the purification tank 3 through a sealed bearing, and its bottom is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing frame 31; wherein, through the cooperation of the servo motor 51, the transmission rod 52, the first gear 53, the second gear 54, and the connecting seat 55, the essential oil raw material is driven to rotate; In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the specific model of the servo motor 51 can be selected according to actual needs, as long as it meets the working requirements. For example, it can be MSMF082L1U2M. The transmission rod 52 is a stainless steel rod, and the first gear 53 and the second gear 54 are both made of alloy steel with identical tooth parameters, only differing in size. The connecting seat 55 is made of stainless steel, and its cross-section is similar to the shape of a door. In actual use, when it is necessary to rotate the essential oil raw material, the operator connects the external power supply of the servo motor 51 through the external controller and starts the servo motor 51. The servo motor 51 drives the transmission rod 52 to rotate, the transmission rod 52 drives the first gear 53 to rotate, the first gear 53 drives the second gear 54 to rotate, the second gear 54 drives the connecting seat 55 to rotate, and the connecting seat 55 drives the fixing frame 31 to rotate, thereby driving the essential oil raw material to rotate, thus accelerating the mass transfer process between steam and raw material, significantly shortening the extraction cycle, and effectively avoiding local overheating, protecting the heat-sensitive aroma components of tobacco essential oil. Example 2: From Figure 1-4It is understood that the collection mechanism 6 includes a water-oil separator 61, a collection pipe 62, and a collection cover 63. The water-oil separator 61 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1 on the side away from the steam generator 2. The collection pipe 62 is connected to the top of the water-oil separator 61, and its end is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting seat 55. It passes through the top of the purification tank 3 through a sealed bearing and extends into the interior of the fixing frame 31. The collection cover 63 is disposed inside the fixing frame 31 and is connected to the end of the collection pipe 62. The water-oil separator 61, the collection pipe 62, and the collection cover 63 work together to collect and separate the water-oil mixture during the purification process. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the specific model of the water-oil separator 61 can be selected according to actual needs, as long as it meets the working requirements. For example, it can be JFS-10. The collection pipe 62 is a stainless steel pipe, and the collection cover 63 is a stainless steel cover. In the actual working process, the purified water-oil mixture enters the interior of the collection pipe 62 through the collection cover 63, and is then transported to the interior of the water-oil separator 61 through the collection pipe 62. Finally, the water-oil separator 61 separates the water and essential oil mixture, and through two valves, it is connected to other external equipment. Through the cooperation of the above structures, the purification efficiency of the purification device for essential oil production is improved. Furthermore, the bottom of the purification tank 3 is connected to a conveying cover 32, the end of the conveying cover 32 is connected to the top of the steam generator 2, and drain valves 33 are provided on both sides of the conveying cover 32.

Its material can be stainless steel. There are two drain valves 33, which can be DN20 solenoid valves. When the work is stopped, the condensate can flow to the outside of the purification tank 3 through the two drain valves 33 to ensure the working environment inside. The bottom four corners of the support frame 34 are fixedly connected with support rods, which are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The support frame 34 plays a supporting role. Through the cooperation of the above structures, the structural stability of the purification device for essential oil production is improved. Furthermore, a baffle 311 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 31, and the bottom of the baffle 311 is attached to the top of a tray 42. In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the baffle 311 is made of stainless steel and is similar to a rectangular ring. Its inner wall is fixedly connected with a mesh structure, which can both allow the medium to pass through and prevent the essential oil raw materials from leaving the interior of the regulating tank 41 when rotating, thereby improving the working stability of the purification device for essential oil production.
