宋代榨油方法的初步研究

A Primary Study on the Method of Pressing Oil in the Song Dynasty

本文对《齐民要术》、《开天传信记》、《重修广韵》、《农书》、《天工开物》等书中有关榨油的记载进行分析,并且分析了《武经总要前集》中新发现的资料,认为我国在1044年时已有使用撞木的油榨;撞木前部较粗、端部尖锐,用薄铁片包裹前端,通过系于横梁的绳索悬挂在梁下;这种油榨可能和《天工开物》中的南方榨相同,也有可能与《农书》中的立槽式油榨相同。

This paper analyses the information on oil pressing based on Important Arts for the People＇ s Welfare, Miscellaneous Records of the Kai --Yuan and Tian- Bao Reign Periods, Revision and Enlargement of the Dictionary of Characters Arranged According to their Sounds when Split, Agriculture Treatise , The Exploitation of the Works of Nature, and the new information on pressing oil from Collection of the Most Important Military Techniques. A ramming wood had been used in pressing oil by 1044 in China. Its head was thicker, and its point was sharp. Its head was wrapped with thin iron sheet. It was sus- pended under a beam by a rope. This kind of Oil Pressing was probably the same as the southern--style pressing in The Exploitation of the Works of Nature, and was maybe the same as the standing trough in Agriculture Treatise.
