[0024] When in use, the Chinese herbal medicine slices are loaded into the crushing shell 6 through the loading component 7, and the first telescopic component 2 drives the lifting rod 3 and the crushing component 8 to move up and down to realize the crushing of the Chinese herbal medicine slices at the bottom of the crushing shell 6, and in the process of the crushing component 8 moving up and down, when the crushing component 8 moves upward, the air pump 10 blows air into the cavity 11, and the air flow flows into the active air pipe 142 and opens the flexible closing component 141, thereby blowing the Chinese herbal medicine slices that are pounded by the crushing component 8 to the inner wall of the bottom of the crushing shell 6, so as to realize the effect of turning over the Chinese herbal medicine slices at the bottom of the crushing shell 6 during the crushing process, and when the air pump 10 blows air into the cavity 11, the curved side wings 145 increase the active air pipe 142. 2 contact area with the air, ensuring that the movable air pipe 142 can be displaced in the perforation 13 toward the inside of the crushing shell 6 under the action of the air flow. When the crushing component 8 moves downward to crush the Chinese medicinal slices at the bottom of the crushing shell 6, the air pump 10 stops blowing air into the cavity 11. At this time, the movable air pipe 142 and the flexible closing component 141 are displaced in the perforation 13 toward the inside of the cavity 11 under the squeezing action of the Chinese medicinal slices. That is, during the crushing process, the movable mechanism 14 moves back and forth in the perforation 13 to ensure that the opening of the perforation 13 is unblocked, thereby avoiding the situation where the opening of the perforation 13 is blocked by the crushed Chinese medicinal slices, thereby improving the crushing efficiency. After the crushing is completed, the Chinese medicinal slices are discharged by the discharge mechanism 12.

During the crushing process, the second telescopic component 123 pushes the movable sealing component 124 to move to the top opening of the unloading shell 121, blocking the top opening of the unloading shell 121. When unloading is required, the second telescopic component 123 drives the movable sealing component 124 to move to the bottom of the opening of the unloading port 122, and the Chinese herbal medicine slices in the crushing shell 6 flow into the unloading shell 121, and unloading is realized from the opening of the unloading port 122.
[0032] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first telescopic component 2 and the second telescopic component 123 are both electric telescopic rods and hydraulic cylinders. Preferably, the first telescopic component 2 and the second telescopic component 123 are both hydraulic cylinders.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, evenly distributed crushing protrusions 9 are provided on the side of the crushing component 8 , and the positions of the crushing protrusions 9 and the opening positions of the through holes 13 are staggered.
