For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0025] Now, further description of the present invention will be made in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the specification.

[0026] An embodiment of the present invention provides a drum-type medicine moistening machine, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown. The drum-type medicine moistening machine includes a bottom bracket 1, a cylinder body 2 is arranged on the bottom bracket 1, a feed inlet 3 and a discharge outlet 4 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the cylinder body 2, a sewage discharge port 5 is arranged on the lower side of the cylinder body 2, a gear ring 6 is arranged on the outer side of the cylinder body 2, the gear ring 6 meshes with a gear 7, the gear 7 is coaxially connected to a transmission shaft 8, the transmission shaft 8 is connected to a coupling 9, the coupling 9 is connected to the output end of a speed reducer 10, a guide plate 11 is arranged in the cylinder body 1, and a spray ball 12 is arranged on the guide plate 11.

[0027] In this embodiment, the feed inlet 3 is used for feeding, the discharge outlet 4 is used for discharging, and the sewage discharge port 5 is used for discharging sewage when the drum-type medicine moistening machine is working or after one round of medicine moistening. A valve can be arranged at the sewage discharge port 5 to discharge sewage reasonably according to actual needs to avoid too high water level in the cylinder body 2. The size of the sewage discharge port 5 is preferably smaller than the size of the material.

[0028] This drum-type medicine moistening machine adopts the principle of screw conveying and uses the power of screw conveying to stir the material. By rotating the cylinder body 1, the angles and heights of the guide plate 11 inside the cylinder body 1 are adjusted to ensure that the material can be fed normally when the equipment rotates forward, and no material can come out from the discharge outlet 4. When the equipment rotates reversely, the material can be discharged normally and all the materials inside the drum can be discharged completely, so as to realize efficient and automatic medicine moistening.

[0029] Specifically, power is provided by the speed reducer 10. This power is transmitted to the transmission shaft 8 via the coupling 9. The rotation of the transmission shaft 8 causes the gear 7 to rotate, thereby driving the gear ring 6 disposed outside the cylinder body 2 to rotate, so as to drive the rotation of the cylinder body 2. Different working modes (forward rotation and reverse rotation) of the speed reducer 10 achieve the forward rotation and reverse rotation of the cylinder body 1, and the rotation speed of the cylinder body 1 is adjusted by adjusting the working parameters of the speed reducer 10. During the feeding and discharging processes of the cylinder body 1, the spraying ball 12 provides water source through connecting an external pipeline, and the spraying forms a water curtain in a columnar form to soak the materials. Only as an example, the rotation speed of the cylinder body 1 can be adjusted to 6 revolutions per minute, with reverse rotation for soaking and forward rotation for discharging. After testing, the drum-type medicine moistening machine can fully meet the moistening effect of traditional Chinese medicinal materials.

[0030] In a specific embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, a specific installation method of the speed reducer 10 is provided. A speed reducer support 13 is provided on the bottom support 1, and the speed reducer 10 is installed on the speed reducer support 13.

[0031] In a specific embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the flow guide plate 11 includes an annular guide rail 1101 and a plurality of first guide rails 1102. The plurality of first guide rails 1102 are fixed within the annular guide rail 1101. The annular guide rail 1101 is fixed within the cylinder body 1, and spraying balls 12 are provided on both the annular guide rail 1101 and the plurality of first guide rails 1102.

[0032] More specifically, the plurality of first guide rails 1102 are uniformly and arrayedly distributed within the annular guide rail 1101.

[0033] More specifically, the annular guide rail 1101 is disposed within the cylinder body 2 at an inclination angle of 60 - 80°, and this inclination angle is preferably 75°.

[0034] More specifically, both the annular guide rail 1102 and the plurality of first guide rails 1101 are stainless steel guide rails.

[0035] With the flow guide plate 11 designed as above, during the uniform mixing process, the stability of the forward and reverse flows of the materials is ensured. During this process, mainly physical changes are reflected. The weld joints of the guide rails are in an arc-shaped smooth stretching, ensuring that the effective moistening area of the medicinal materials reaches the maximum. Both the annular guide rail 1102 and the plurality of first guide rails 1101 are made of 304 material with a wall thickness of 2 mm, and spraying balls are provided inside. The spraying forms a water curtain in a columnar form, and the materials are soaked in an accelerated manner in a reverse form when passing through, and are pushed by the centrifugal force of the guide rails to completely stratify the unmixed materials, ensuring that there are no incompletely soaked materials, making the materials more comprehensive.

[0036] Since most of the medicinal materials are rhizomes, during the osmotic change process of their cell walls, affected by the centrifugal force of the equipment, the shriveled cytoplasm is filled with water, making it easier to extract the active ingredients of the medicinal materials.

[0037] In a specific embodiment, the cylinder body 2 is integrally formed by rolling and welding plates, avoiding the unreliability of metal deformation. The cylinder body 2 is powered by a gear ring 6 to ensure that there will be no misalignment or derailment problems during long-term operation. The feed inlet 3 is at 2 / 3 body position and feeds at an inclination angle of 30°, ensuring that there are no problems of material bridging and retention.

[0038] In addition, the bottom of the cylinder body 2 is a smooth fluid body, which not only reduces the friction during the self-circulation process of the material but also ensures no dead corners during the cleaning and infiltration processes. The annular flow channel grooves inside the equipment are distributed in the form of flash chips, reducing the residence time of the material inside the equipment during operation.

[0039] In a specific embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a limit roller assembly 14 is provided on the bottom bracket 1 for limiting and protecting the cylinder body 2.

[0040] More specifically, the limit roller assembly 14 is provided with two, and is symmetrically arranged on the bottom bracket 1 about the center axis of the cylinder body 2.

[0041] In a specific embodiment, the coupling 9 is a plum blossom-shaped elastic coupling.

[0042] In a specific embodiment, during discharging, a water blocking device is provided at the edge of the discharge port 4, similar to an internal skirt, which not only ensures the smoothness of the discharge port 4 but also prevents water stains from splashing out.

[0043] In summary, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0044] 1. Automatic operation.

[0045] 2. Better infiltration effect of medicinal materials.

[0046] 3. Accurate infiltration time.

[0047] 4. Avoid the situation that the middle part cannot be fully infiltrated during manual operation.

[0048] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and the description of the present invention.
