Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine cleaning technology, specifically to a cleaning device for processing traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), cleaning is a crucial step that directly affects the quality of the herbs and the effectiveness of subsequent processing. However, existing cleaning equipment for TCM processing suffers from a series of problems. Firstly, many traditional cleaning devices fail to ensure sufficient contact between the herbs and water, making it difficult to thoroughly remove surface dirt and affecting the quality of the herbs. Secondly, impurities generated during cleaning tend to accumulate at the bottom of the cleaning tank, not only affecting the cleaning effect but also contaminating the cleaning water, reducing water quality, and consequently impacting subsequent cleaning operations. Furthermore, some cleaning equipment lacks an effective water recycling mechanism, resulting in significant water waste, which contradicts the concept of sustainable development. In addition, some cleaning devices suffer from unstable operation due to unreasonable transmission and limit designs between components, affecting the consistency and reliability of cleaning. Moreover, maintenance of traditional equipment, such as replacing filter components, is often inconvenient, increasing maintenance costs and time.

[0003] Therefore, developing a cleaning device for Chinese medicine processing that can thoroughly clean Chinese medicine, effectively remove impurities, recycle water resources, operate stably, and be easy to maintain is of great practical significance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application solves the issues of incomplete cleaning and impurity accumulation in the cleaning tank in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a cleaning device for processing traditional Chinese medicine, comprising a base, a cleaning box fixedly installed on the base, a bottom surface inclined at one angle on the cleaning box, two inner frames slidably installed on the cleaning box, a plurality of pressing rods fixedly installed between the inner frames, a lower shell fixedly installed on the cleaning box, an intermediate shell fixedly installed on the lower shell, an upper shell fixedly installed on the intermediate shell, a main shaft rotatably installed on the lower shell, a threaded plate fixedly installed on the main shaft, a spiral plate fixedly installed on the threaded plate, the spiral plate fitting against the inner wall of the intermediate shell, a filter box fixedly installed on the base, a plurality of sieve plates slidably installed on the filter box, and the sieve plates inclined on the filter box.

[0006] Preferably, the cleaning tank is equipped with an underwater aeration device for spraying bubbles, and the underwater aeration device is connected to an external air pump.

[0007] Preferably, a pressing motor is fixedly installed on the base, an inner shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the pressing motor, an inner gear is fixedly installed on the inner shaft, an outer shaft is fixedly installed on the inner frame near the pressing motor, an outer gear is fixedly installed on the outer shaft, and the outer gear meshes with the inner gear.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting disk is rotatably provided on the inner shaft, and a circular groove is provided on the limiting disk, on which the outer shaft slides.

[0009] Preferably, two side support rods are fixedly installed on the limiting plate, and a support rod is fixedly installed on each side support rod, and the support rods are fixedly connected to the cleaning box.

[0010] Preferably, the end of the side support rod away from the limiting plate is rotatably provided with a rotating rod, and the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the end of the inner frame away from the limiting plate.

[0011] Preferably, an extension rod is fixedly installed on the inner frame, the extension rod is slidably connected to the cleaning tank, and a connecting rod is fixedly installed on the inner frame.

[0012] Preferably, a conveyor motor is fixedly mounted on the main shaft, and a vibrating frame is fixedly mounted on the conveyor motor, with the vibrating frame fixedly connected to the filter box.

[0013] Preferably, a ladder is fixedly installed on the base, and the ladder is fixedly connected to the filter box.

[0014] The technical solution provided in this application has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0015] 1. The two inner frames and pressing rods in this application allow the Chinese medicine to be pressed repeatedly by rotating and moving the inner frames, so that the Chinese medicine and water form a large impact, effectively removing dirt and other impurities from the surface of the Chinese medicine and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0016] 2. The underwater aeration device of this application sprays bubbles. The impact force generated by the rising and bursting of the bubbles, as well as their tumbling and flowing in the water, can better remove dirt from the surface of Chinese medicine and cause the material to tumble, ensuring that the water flow fully contacts all parts of the Chinese medicine, thereby further improving the cleaning effect.

[0017] 3. The bottom of the cleaning tank in this application is tilted to one corner, which makes it easier for impurities to enter the lower shell with the water flow. Through the rotation of the main shaft, threaded blades and spiral plates, the mud and water are transported upward, avoiding the accumulation of impurities in the lower shell, ensuring the water quality in the cleaning tank and facilitating continuous cleaning.

[0018] 4. The multi-layered sieve plates inclined inside the filter box of this application filter the soil and water falling from above in layers, which not only ensures the cleanliness of the circulating water, but also allows the remaining sieve plates to continue filtering when one sieve plate is replaced, maintaining water quality, realizing the recycling of water resources and saving resources.

[0019] 5. This application achieves the rotation of the inner frame by pressing the inner shaft driven by the motor and meshing the inner and outer gears. The movement of the inner frame is precisely restricted by the limiting plate, side support rod, rotating rod and other structures, so that it remains horizontal and stable during rotation, ensuring the consistency of the pressing effect.

[0020] 6. The conveyor motor drives the main shaft to rotate to convey soil and water. At the same time, the vibration generated by its operation is transmitted to the filter box and screen plate through the vibrating frame to prevent soil from accumulating on the screen plate and ensure stable filtration effect.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0032] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a cleaning device for processing traditional Chinese medicine includes a base 101, on which a cleaning box 102 is fixedly installed. The cleaning box 102 has a bottom surface that is inclined at one angle. Two inner frames 111 are slidably arranged on the cleaning box 102. Multiple pressing rods 114 are fixedly arranged between the inner frames 111. A lower shell 117 is fixedly installed on the cleaning box 102. An intermediate shell 119 is fixedly installed on the lower shell 117. An upper shell 120 is fixedly installed on the intermediate shell 119. A main shaft 123 is rotatably arranged on the lower shell 117. A threaded plate 124 is fixedly arranged on the main shaft 123. A spiral plate 125 is fixedly arranged on the threaded plate 124. The spiral plate 125 is in contact with the inner wall of the intermediate shell 119. A filter box 127 is fixedly installed on the base 101. Multiple sieve plates 128 are slidably arranged on the filter box 127, and the sieve plates 128 are inclined on the filter box 127.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the cleaning tank 102 is inclined at an angle, that is, it is inclined towards the lower shell 117, so that the water and impurities inside the cleaning tank 102, especially the soil that is tilted down, move into the lower shell 117 with the water flow and the inclined surface at the bottom of the cleaning tank 102, thus preventing impurities from accumulating at the bottom of the cleaning tank 102, which would affect the water quality and the subsequent cleaning effect.

[0035] When using it, the Chinese medicine should be placed into the cleaning tank 102, and then... Figure 2The medicine is placed in the right side of the cleaning tank 102. Then, by rotating the inner frame 111, the floating Chinese medicine in the cleaning tank 102 is pressed and immersed in the water. As the inner frame 111 rotates, it moves to the water surface by buoyancy. The repeated pressing of the Chinese medicine by the inner frame 111 creates a large impact between the Chinese medicine and the water, causing the soil on the Chinese medicine to fall off due to the impact with the water. Then, the soil gradually sinks to the ground of the cleaning tank 102 by gravity. Through the flow of water and the sliding of the inclined surface at the bottom of the cleaning tank 102, the soil is finally moved from the cleaning tank 102 into the lower shell 117.

[0036] After cleaning, the soil and water mix together and are transported upwards in the intermediate shell 119 within the lower shell 117 by the rotation of the main shaft 123, threaded plate 124, and spiral plate 125. The intermediate shell 119 is inclined to facilitate transport and discharge. Because the liquid level in the cleaning tank 102 is higher than that in the lower shell 117, the water entering the lower shell 117 causes the soil to move upwards along the threaded plate 124 within the intermediate shell 119 due to the liquid level difference. This upward impact prevents the soil from accumulating in the lower shell 117. As the water carries the soil upwards, the rotation of the threaded plate 124 further transports the soil, ensuring that it is lifted above the liquid level in the cleaning tank 102. Finally, the soil falls through the opening in the upper shell 120 and is filtered through the sieve plate 128 in the filter box 127 to collect impurities such as soil. The filtered water is then discharged back into the cleaning tank 102, forming a water cycle. The sieve plate 128 on the filter box 127 is inclined, with the inclination direction facing the cleaning box 102, opposite to the installation direction of the sieve plate 128. This causes water and dirt falling onto the sieve plate 128 to move in the inclined direction, preventing water and dirt from splashing to the outside or moving outside the filter box 127 through the sieve plate 128. By setting three sets of sieve plates 128, layered filtration is achieved, ensuring the cleanliness of the circulating water. Furthermore, when replacing one sieve plate 128, the other two sieve plates 128 can be used for filtration and water quality maintenance, preventing dirt from being dislodged by water flow and entering the circulation.

[0037] Inside the cleaning box 102, the rotation of the inner frame 111 presses down on the Chinese medicine while simultaneously moving it forward. Figure 2 The medicine moves from right to left, and the water circulation in the cleaning tank 102 also moves the medicine, which facilitates the removal of the medicine after cleaning. The medicine enters the liquid surface of the cleaning tank 102 through the external conveying mechanism and gradually moves out.

[0038] like Figure 1As shown, the cleaning tank 102 is equipped with an underwater aeration device 103 for spraying bubbles, which is connected to an external air pump. Specifically, compressed gas is delivered to the underwater aeration device 103, located below the liquid surface inside the cleaning tank 102, and then sprayed out, forming a large number of bubbles. These bubbles rise to the surface and, upon contact with the surface of the medicinal herbs, rapidly burst, generating impact force that effectively removes dirt and other impurities. Simultaneously, the tumbling and flowing action of the bubbles in the water also causes the materials to tumble and move, allowing the water flow to more thoroughly contact every corner of the fruits and vegetables, further improving the cleaning effect.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, a pressing motor 116 is fixedly mounted on the base 101. An inner shaft 108 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the pressing motor 116, and an inner gear 107 is fixedly mounted on the inner shaft 108. An outer shaft 110 is fixedly mounted on the inner frame 111 near the pressing motor 116, and an outer gear 109 is fixedly mounted on the outer shaft 110. The outer gear 109 meshes with the inner gear 107. Specifically, the pressing motor 116 drives the inner shaft 108 to rotate, and the inner shaft 108 drives the inner gear 107 to drive the outer gear 109.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, a limiting disk 106 is rotatably mounted on the inner shaft 108, and a circular groove is provided on the limiting disk 106, on which the outer shaft 110 slides. Specifically, the limiting disk 106 restricts the movement of the outer gear 109, so that the outer gear 109 can only slide on the circular groove of the limiting disk 106. Thus, when the inner gear 107 drives the outer gear 109, the outer gear 109 drives the outer shaft 110 and the inner frame 111 to rotate around the axis of the inner gear 107.

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, two side support rods 105 are fixedly installed on the limiting plate 106, and a support rod 104 is fixedly installed on each side support rod 105. The support rod 104 is fixedly connected to the cleaning box 102.

[0042] like Figure 3As shown, a rotating rod 112 is rotatably mounted on the end of the side support rod 105 away from the limiting disk 106. The rotating rod 112 is rotatably connected to the end of the inner frame 111 away from the limiting disk 106. Specifically, the rotating rod 112 restricts both ends of the inner frame 111, so when the inner gear 107 drives the outer gear 109, the outer gear 109 drives the inner frame 111, extension rod 113, pressing rod 114, and connecting rod 115 to rotate around the axis of the inner gear 107, but does not change their orientation, always maintaining a horizontal position. When the inner frame 111 rotates around the axis of the inner gear 107, both ends of the inner frame 111 drive one end of the rotating rod 112, causing the other end of the rotating rod 112 to rotate on the side support rod 105.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, an extension rod 113 is fixedly installed on the inner frame 111, and the extension rod 113 is slidably connected to the cleaning tank 102. A connecting rod 115 is fixedly installed on the inner frame 111. Specifically, the connecting rod 115 connects and supports the inner frames 111 on both sides of the cleaning tank 102, and together drives the pressing rod 114 to press the Chinese medicine.

[0044] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, a conveyor motor 121 is fixedly mounted on the main shaft 123, and a vibrating frame 122 is fixedly mounted on the conveyor motor 121. The vibrating frame 122 is fixedly connected to the filter box 127. Specifically, the conveyor motor 121 drives the main shaft 123 to rotate on the intermediate housing 119, which in turn drives the threaded plate 124 and the spiral plate 125 to rotate, conveying water and soil into the lower housing 117. When the conveyor motor 121 is working, it will generate vibration. The conveyor motor 121 is mounted on the filter box 127 through the vibrating frame 122. When the conveyor motor 121 is working, it transmits vibration to the filter box 127 through the vibrating frame 122, which in turn causes the screen plate 128 on the filter box 127 to vibrate. This vibration causes the soil collected on the screen plate 128 to shake, thereby preventing the soil from accumulating in one place and affecting filtration.

[0045] like Figure 8 As shown, a ladder 126 is fixedly installed on the base 101, and the ladder 126 is fixedly connected to the filter box 127. Specifically, the operator uses the ladder 126 to replace the sieve plate 128 on the filter box 127. The intermediate housing 119 is constrained and installed on the cleaning box 102 by multiple intermediate support rings 118.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
