[0048] It should be explained that in the drawings of the present embodiment, the shape and size of the mold cavity formed by the placement groove 46, the upper mold core 22 and the lower mold core 33 are only partially illustrated. The required mold cavity shape can be customized according to the user's needs for the production of products to different shapes such as cylinder, rugby, square, strip, etc., and the upper mold core 22 and the lower mold core 33 can be removably replaced.

[0049] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the feeding elevator 48 transports the kudzu root to the material sorting component 2, such as Figure 7As shown, the lengths of the outputs of the standard cylinders 40 on both sides of the material sorting tray 42 are different. At this time, the material sorting tray 42 is tilted to facilitate material sorting. The vibration source group 39 vibrates the kudzu root on the material sorting tray 42 so that the kudzu root can be smoothly and reasonably distributed in the placement groove 46 of the material sorting tray 42. After the material sorting is completed, the standard cylinder 40 drives the material sorting tray 42 to move downward through the vibration connecting rod 41, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, until the material arrangement tray 42 is parallel to the lower mold movable assembly 11;

[0050] When it is necessary to transfer the kudzu root to the lower mold core 33, the mini cylinder 44 outputs, and the material baffle 43 moves a distance less than the width of a placement groove 46, so that the material baffle 43 and the placement groove 46 on the material tray 42 completely overlap, so that the kudzu root in the material tray 42 can smoothly fall into the lower mold core 33, and the excess kudzu root will roll from the material rack 38 to the return material elevator 49 due to the descent of the material tray 42, and the return material elevator 49 will recycle the excess kudzu root into the upper hopper 47;

[0051] The annular conveyor line 5 is started, driving the slider trolley 30 to move along the guide rail (not shown in the attached figure, and the guide rail is conventionally set on the market), and the lower mold movable component 11 filled with kudzu root enters the area covered by the heating component, and the heating component heats and softens the kudzu root to facilitate the subsequent shaping of the kudzu root. After the heating is completed, the annular conveyor line 5 continues to drive the lower mold movable component 11 to enter the pressing mechanism 4, and when the lower mold fixed component 10 and the lower mold movable component 11 are overlapped, the hydraulic mold group 8 drives the upper mold component 9 to press downward to perform a pressing process on the kudzu root;

[0052] After the pressing is completed, the hydraulic module 8 drives the upper mold assembly 9 to move upward, and the annular conveyor line 5 continues to drive the lower mold movable assembly 11 that has been successfully pressed into the unloading area, and the kudzu root that has not fallen out of the lower mold core 33 is unloaded by the unloading roller brush 66. The dropped pressed kudzu root is transported to the external storage box through the unloading elevator 65 (not shown in this figure, it is a conventional storage device on the market), and the annular conveyor line 5 continues to drive the lower mold movable assembly 11 into the area covered by the cleaning assembly, and enters the next cycle after being cleaned in turn by the high-pressure water gun group 59, the cleaning roller brush 60 and the wind knife 61.

[0053] The equipment of the present invention integrates feeding, heating and softening, pressing, unloading and cleaning. The kudzu root is heated and pressed evenly and fully during the processing. The upper mold core 22 and the lower mold core 33 can be disassembled and replaced to meet the needs of pressing kudzu root products in different forms. The use of fully automated production not only improves the efficiency of kudzu root pressing, but also improves the aesthetics and uniformity of the appearance of the finished kudzu root products.

[0054] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present invention.
