[0024] Example: Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an oil-water separation device for processing plant essential oils includes a support frame 1, which supports the weight of the entire device. A separation tank 2 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the support frame 1. The separation tank 2 is used to contain the input oil-water mixture and provide a closed space for oil-water separation. An input pipe 3 is installed on the upper outer side of the separation tank 2. The input pipe 3 is used to transport the oil-water mixture to be separated into the separation tank 2. A separation pipe 4 is installed on the lower outer side of the separation tank 2. The separation pipe 4 is used to discharge the water layer in the separation tank 2 after the oil and water have been separated. An observation plate 9 is installed on the outer side of the separation tank 2.

[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 7 As shown, a lifting assembly 5 is provided on the top of the separating tank 2. The lifting assembly 5 provides lifting functionality for subsequent parts. The lifting assembly 5 includes a dust cover 501, which protects its internal parts. The bottom of the dust cover 501 is fixedly connected to the top of the separating tank 2. A second separating tube 6 is provided inside the lifting assembly 5. The second separating tube 6 is used to extract the separated essential oil layer inside the separating tank 2. It is L-shaped and made of rigid material. A servo motor 502 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the dust cover 501. In this utility model, the servo motor 502 is a Panasonic series model, which can be replaced according to the actual situation. The motor 502 provides power to the lifting assembly 5. A worm gear 503 is fixedly connected to the output end, which drives the movement of subsequent parts. A support block 504 is rotatably connected to the end of the worm gear 503 away from the servo motor 502. The support block 504 is used to support the end of the worm gear 503 away from the motor 502. The bottom of the support block 504 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the dustproof shell 501. A lead screw 506 is rotatably connected inside the dustproof shell 501. The lead screw 506 drives the subsequent parts to rise and fall. A worm wheel 505 is fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the lead screw 506. The worm wheel 505 rotates under the meshing drive of the worm gear 503 and drives the lead screw 506 to rotate synchronously. The outer side of the worm wheel 505 meshes with the outer side of the worm gear 503.

[0026] like Figure 2 , Figure 7 As shown, a guide rod 507 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the dustproof housing 501. The guide rod 507 provides guidance for subsequent parts. A mounting block 508 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the lead screw 506. The mounting block 508 is used to install and fix the second separator tube 6. It can drive the second separator tube 6 to rise and fall synchronously with the rotation of the lead screw 506. The inner side of the mounting block 508 is slidably set on the outer side of the guide rod 507. The second separator tube 6 is fixedly inserted through the inner side of the mounting block 508. The second separator tube 6 slides through the bottom of the dustproof housing 501 and the top of the separator 2. The output end of the second separator tube 6 passes through one side of the dustproof housing 501 and is connected to a hose 7. The hose 7 is made of a soft material. The hose 7 bends to ensure that the transmission is not affected when the second separator tube 6 rises and falls. It is used to transport the essential oil extracted by the second separator tube 6 to the subsequent processing stage. The hose 7 is connected to a water pump. The water pump provides suction for the second separator tube 6 to extract the essential oil and transfers it to the collection container.

[0027] like Figure 4 , Figure 6As shown, a fixing component 8 is provided at the bottom of the separation tank 2. The fixing component 8 is used to fix subsequent parts. The fixing component 8 includes an L-shaped connecting block 804, which provides an installation environment for subsequent parts. The outer side of the L-shaped connecting block 804 is fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the separation tank 2. A fixing shaft 803 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the L-shaped connecting block 804. The fixing shaft 803 provides a rotation base for subsequent parts. A connecting rod 802 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the fixing shaft 803. The connecting rod 802 connects to subsequent parts and drives them to rotate synchronously. A flip cover 801 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting rod 802. The flip cover 801 is used to close the bottom of the separation tank 2. After opening, the inside of the separation tank 2 and the top of the flip cover 801 can be cleaned.

[0028] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a fixing block 805 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the separating barrel 2, providing an installation environment for subsequent parts. A fixing shaft 806 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing block 805, providing a rotation base for subsequent parts. A screw 807 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the fixing shaft 806, providing an installation environment for subsequent parts. A fixing block 809 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the flip cover 801, providing a lifting mechanism for the flip cover 801. For fixing the foundation, the outer thread of the screw 807 is connected to a wing nut 808 that abuts against the bottom of the fixing block 2 809. The wing nut 808 is tightened on the screw 807, pressing the fixing block 2 809 against the bottom of the fixing block 1 805, thus fixing the flip cover 801. The top of the wing nut 808 abuts against the bottom of the fixing block 2 809, and the top of the fixing block 2 809 abuts against the bottom of the fixing block 1 805.

[0029] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a sealing ring 810 is provided on the upper outer side of the flip cover 801. The sealing ring 810 is used to enhance the sealing between the flip cover 801 and the bottom of the separation tank 2. A filter screen is provided at the input end of the separation tube 4. The filter screen is used to filter impurities in the water in the separation tank 2 to prevent impurities from entering the separation tube 4 and causing blockage.

[0030] It should be noted that, in use, this oil-water separation device for processing plant essential oils involves inputting an oil-water mixture through input pipe 3. After settling and separating, the valve of separation pipe 4 is opened to drain the water. Observing from the observation plate 9, once the water level is lower than the input end of separation pipe 6, the valve of separation pipe 4 is closed. The operator then starts the servo motor 502 to rotate, which drives the worm gear 503 to mesh with the worm wheel 505. The rotation of the worm wheel 505 drives the lead screw 506 to rotate, which in turn drives the mounting block 508 to rise and fall. The mounting block 508 simultaneously drives separation pipe 6 to rise and fall, so that the input end of separation pipe 6 is slightly higher than the water level. At this time, the water pump is turned on to extract essential oil from separation pipe 6. The device controls the rotation direction of the servo motor 502 to raise and lower separation pipe 6, avoiding excessive waste of oil and water and improving the essential oil recovery rate.

[0031] When it is necessary to clean the sediment at the bottom of the separator 2, after draining the liquid inside the separator 2, the operator loosens the butterfly nut 808, so that the screw 807 rotates parallel to the horizontal direction. At this time, the fixing block 809 is released. Then, the flip cover 801 is rotated around the fixing shaft 803 to clean the inside of the separator 2 and the top of the flip cover 801. After cleaning, the flip cover 801 is closed, the screw 807 is rotated perpendicular to the horizontal direction, and then the butterfly nut 808 is tightened to fix the flip cover 801 at the bottom of the separator 2. The device has a simple structure, is easy to maintain, and improves the quality of essential oils.

[0032] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
