Coal-electricity dual-purpose machine for softening surface layer of traditional chinese medicinal materials through heating

Abstract

The invention relates to a coal-electricity dual-purpose machine for softening the surface layer of traditional chinese medicinal materials through heating. The machine comprises a frame, an electric heating tube, a dual-purpose steam oven, a smoke exhaust pipe, a steam guide pipe, a steam incubator, a medicine containing barrel, a hoisting shaft, spacing chuck plates, a rotation plate, a low-speed motor, universal wheels, a reduction gearbox, a water outlet pipe, a temperature controller, a safety valve and transmission shafts. The dual-purpose steam oven with the electric heating tube therein is mounted on the left side of the upper part of the frame; the spacing chuck plates are symmetrically arranged in the steam incubator, and are mounted on the right side at the upper part of the frame; the low-speed motor and the reduction gearbox are arranged on the frame below the steam incubator; the smoke exhaust pipe is arranged on one side of the dual-purpose steam oven; the water outlet pipe is arranged at the left-lower part of the steam incubator; the temperature controller and the safety valve are arranged on the outer wall on the left side of the steam incubator; the medicine containing barrel is mounted on the spacing chuck plates in the steam incubator through the hoisting shaft. The machine heats water by coal or electricity, then sends the water into the steam incubator by the steam guide pipe, the traditional chinese medicinal materials in the medicine containing barrel are rapidly heated and humidified by high temperature of steam; the medicinal material softening homogeneous degree can be improved by rotation of the medicine containing barrel driven by the rotation plate, the hoisting shaft is radially symmetrically arranged on the medicine containing barrel, so that the medicine containing barrel is convenient to assemble and disassemble, and the use convenience is enhanced. The machine has a reasonable structure, is high in reliability, good in softening efficiency and small in medicine damage, and lays a good foundation for the follow-up medicine peeling process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a processing machine for Chinese medicinal materials, in particular to a machine for heating the surface layer of Chinese medicinal materials with dual-purpose coal and electricity. Background technique [0002] Before peeling the Chinese herbal medicines, it is necessary to quickly and evenly soften the surface of the Chinese herbal medicines to ensure that the medicinal properties of the Chinese herbal medicines are not lost. The existing surface softening technology of Chinese medicinal materials is divided into two forms: one is to boil Chinese medicinal materials in boiling water to achieve the purpose of surface softening. However, due to uneven thickness and different sizes of Chinese medicinal materials, the thinner medicinal materials will If it becomes soft prematurely, the machine will remove the too soft part together with the skin when peeling, causing loss and reducing the quality of Chinese herbal medicines. The...

The existing surface softening technology of Chinese medicinal materials is divided into two forms: one is to boil Chinese medicinal materials in boiling water to achieve the purpose of surface softening. However, due to uneven thickness and different sizes of Chinese medicinal materials, the thinner medicinal materials will Premature softening, the machine will remove the too soft part together with the skin when peeling, causing loss and reducing the quality of Chinese herbal medicines

The other is to put the Chinese herbal medicine in a plastic bag and seal the mouth after injecting steam. Since the plastic bag has no insulation layer and dissipates heat quickly, the plastic bag needs to be flipped. One injection of steam cannot soften the surface of the Chinese herbal medicine. It is difficult for the operator to inject steam at one time. Because the dry medicinal material is relatively hard, it is easy to puncture the plastic bag. The plastic bag has a short service life, high cost and serious environmental pollution.

Therefore, the existing technology cannot guarantee the need for mechanized peeling of Chinese herbal medicines in the follow-up process
