[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine beverages are liquid medicines made by decocting and packaging Chinese medicinal herbs in specially formulated proportions. This allows patients to drink them directly, saving them time and facilitating the development of the traditional Chinese medicine industry.

[0003] In the production process of traditional Chinese medicine beverages, for example, a patent application with application number 202121543082.6 discloses an automated packaging system for traditional Chinese medicine beverages. Specifically, it discloses that by using a first heat-conducting wheel, a second heat-conducting wheel, and a heat-conducting block, the surface of the packaging skin is overlapped with the surfaces of the first and second heat-conducting wheels, which facilitates sealing the packaging skin to form a packaging bag, thereby achieving rapid packaging of traditional Chinese medicine beverages.

[0004] In the above technical solution, when packaging Chinese herbal beverages, in order to ensure the processing efficiency of Chinese medicine, the Chinese herbal beverages are injected into the packaging bag with a certain impact force to package them. During this process, the impact force of the Chinese herbal beverages will directly hit the heat-sealing interface of the packaging bag and the side wall of the packaging bag. When the impact force is large, the heat-sealing interface of the packaging bag is easily worn by the impact, which poses a risk of leakage. When the impact force directly hits the side wall of the packaging bag, the side wall of the packaging bag is easily punctured. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic packaging system for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces.

[0006] The technical problem solved by this invention is to address the issue in the prior art where, when a traditional Chinese medicine beverage impacts the packaging bag with a certain impact force, the heat-sealed area of ​​the packaging bag is affected, leading to leakage.

[0007] The present invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: an automatic packaging system for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, including a guiding component, a sealing component, and a filling component. The sealing component is provided at the output end of the guiding component. The sealing component is used to seal the sides of the first packaging shell and the second packaging shell. It also includes an anti-splash component. An expansion base plate is provided at the end of the filling component. Expansion airbags are provided on the sides and top of the expansion base plate. The anti-splash component and the expansion base plate cooperate with each other, and a bottom heat sealing component is provided on the anti-splash component.

[0008] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that the guiding component includes a first winding roller, a second winding roller and a third winding roller, a drying mechanism is provided between the first winding roller and the second winding roller, the first winding roller, the second winding roller and the third winding roller are symmetrically arranged, and the distance between adjacent second winding rollers is greater than the distance between adjacent third winding rollers.

[0009] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that the edge sealing assembly includes a first guide plate and a second guide plate, the first guide plate and the second guide plate are symmetrically arranged, and the top end of the first guide plate is flat and the bottom end of the first guide plate is arc-shaped.

[0010] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that the edge sealing assembly also includes a heat sealing plate, which is disposed at the output end of the sealing telescopic rod and is symmetrically arranged.

[0011] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: the filling assembly includes a feeding pipe, an expanded base plate is fixed on a fixed connecting rod, a fixed base is installed on the fixed connecting rod, the feeding pipe is connected to the fixed base, exhaust pipes are evenly distributed on the fixed base, and the fixed connecting rod moves longitudinally through a support assembly.

[0012] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: the support assembly includes a connecting telescopic rod, the connecting telescopic rod is fixed on the top base, the top base is provided with a sliding groove, the fixed connecting rod and the sliding groove are slidably connected, and a connecting support plate is fixed to the end of the fixed connecting rod, the connecting support plate is installed at the end of the connecting telescopic rod.

[0013] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: the anti-splash component includes a clamping base, which is installed on the power end of the clamping telescopic rod via a clamping mounting plate. The clamping base includes a protective base and a protective shell, which are fixedly connected and are arc-shaped. The protective base and the protective shell cooperate with the expansion base plate.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This application firstly employs a guiding component to guide the raw materials of the packaging bag. This application uses two symmetrically arranged first and second packaging shells, which are then heat-sealed using a sealing component. Subsequently, a filling component fills the sealed first and second packaging shells with liquid medicine. During use, an expanding base plate expands the cavity formed by the first and second packaging shells. The expanding base plate and anti-splash component work together, and the inflatable bladder provides support for the cavity. When filling with liquid medicine, the medicine enters the cavity and then falls onto the expanding base plate with a certain impact force. The expanding base plate and the inflatable bladder provide cushioning, preventing the liquid medicine from directly impacting the heat-sealed position and causing damage to the seal.

[0016] 2. In this application, multiple sets of feeding pipes and exhaust pipes are provided, which allows different types of liquid medicine to enter from different feeding pipes at the same time. During the feeding process, the exhaust pipes are used to discharge the impact gas, thereby protecting the stability of the heat-sealed edges of the first and second packaging shells and preventing them from being damaged due to impact.

[0017] 3. This application uses a clamping base to place the expanded base plate on the protective base, and then uses a protective shell to protect the side walls of the first and second packaging shells. This prevents the liquid medicine from having too much impact force when it is dropped and directly hitting the shells of the first and second packaging shells. The protective shell and the expanded base plate can achieve a buffering effect. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention in achieving its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structures, features, and effects of the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, is provided.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-7 As shown, an automatic packaging system for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces includes a first winding roller 1, a second winding roller 4, and a third winding roller 10. The first winding roller 1, the second winding roller 4, and the third winding roller 10 are respectively arranged in two sets and are symmetrically arranged, respectively used to guide the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6.

[0029] Specifically, taking the first packaging shell 3 as an example, the height of the first winding roller 1 is lower than the height of the second winding roller 4. The first packaging shell 3 is first guided by the first winding roller 1 and then onto the second winding roller 4. During this process, a drying mechanism 2 is provided between the first winding roller 1 and the second winding roller 4 to dry the ink on the first packaging shell 3 and prevent the ink from being scratched during use.

[0030] The distance between adjacent second winding rollers 4 is wider than the distance between adjacent third winding rollers 10, and the height of the second winding rollers 4 is higher than the height of the third winding rollers 10. This is used to adjust the distance between the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6, enabling the connection between the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6. Specifically, the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are first heat-sealed by the sealing assembly 7 to form a certain cavity. Then, the position of the filling assembly 8 is controlled by the support assembly 5, so that the filling assembly 8 is inserted into the first packaging shell 3. Inside the cavity of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6, the cavity is supported. Then, the anti-splash component 9 is used to support the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6. Then, the filling component 8 is activated to fill the cavity. During this process, the anti-splash component 9 is used to prevent the liquid from splashing and affecting the heat sealing of the bottom of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6. Therefore, a bottom heat sealing component is provided at the bottom of the anti-splash component 9 to achieve a sealed cavity, which can prevent the sealing edge of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 from being impacted, and at the same time protect the sealing edge of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6.

[0031] Firstly, the edge sealing assembly 7 includes a first guide plate 71 and a second guide plate 72, wherein the first guide plate 71 and the second guide plate 72 have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged. The upper surface of the first guide plate 71 is flat, and the lower surface of the first guide plate 71 is arc-shaped, which is used to guide the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 in an arc shape, so that the edges of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 gradually come together. After coming together, the edges of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are heat-sealed by the extrusion of the heat sealing plate 73. The heat sealing plate 73 is set at the output end of the sealing telescopic rod 74. By activating the sealing telescopic rod 74, the heat sealing plate 73 moves close to the edges of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 to perform the heat sealing operation.

[0032] Furthermore, the filling assembly 8 includes an expanded base plate 85, which is connected to a fixed base 82 via a fixed connecting rod 83. The fixed base 82 is equipped with an inlet pipe 87 and an exhaust pipe 86. In use, the fixed base 82 is first moved longitudinally by the support assembly 5 until the expanded base plate 85 moves longitudinally under the action of the fixed connecting rod 83, until it falls onto the anti-splash assembly 9. The inlet pipe 87 allows the liquid medicine to enter, and the exhaust pipe 86 ensures pressure balance during filling. During this process, the liquid medicine falls onto the expanded base plate 85 after passing through the inlet pipe 87, preventing the liquid medicine from directly impacting the heat-sealing position and potentially causing leakage. This protects the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6.

[0033] Specifically, expansion airbags 84 are provided at the edge and on the upper surface of the expansion base plate 85. The expansion airbags 84 are attached to the inner walls of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 to support the cross-section of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6. When the feed pipe 87 enters with a certain impact force, the expansion airbags 84 provide buffering and reduce noise generation during filling.

[0034] A mounting base 81 is fixed on the fixed connecting rod 83. The mounting base 81 is provided with multiple sets of feed pipes 87, which are connected to the fixed base 82. Each feed pipe 87 is equipped with a set of exhaust pipes 86. In this process, various types of liquid medicine can be introduced through the feed pipes 87. Since the fixed base 82 and the expansion base plate 85 have a certain stroke, the different liquid medicines can be fully mixed.

[0035] The support assembly 5 includes a top base 52, on which a connecting telescopic rod 51 is fixed. A connecting support plate 53 is installed at the end of the connecting telescopic rod 51, and a fixed connecting rod 83 is fixed on the connecting support plate 53. A sliding groove 54 is provided in the middle of the top base 52, and the fixed connecting rod 83 and the sliding groove 54 are slidably connected to control the height of the filling assembly 8. In specific use, by activating the connecting telescopic rod 51, the height of the connecting support plate 53 is controlled, thereby controlling the sliding of the fixed connecting rod 83 on the sliding groove 54, thus controlling the height of the filling assembly 8. After filling, by controlling the height of the filling assembly 8, the liquid medicine is evenly injected into the cavities of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6, thereby guiding the liquid medicine out and protecting the heat-sealed positions of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6.

[0036] The anti-splash component 9 includes a clamping telescopic rod 91, with a clamping mounting plate 92 fixed to the end of the clamping telescopic rod 91. A clamping base 93 is fixed to the side of the clamping mounting plate 92. When the clamping telescopic rod 91 is activated, the clamping base 93 moves towards each other to clamp the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6, so that the cavities of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 can be adapted to the expansion base plate 85, which facilitates the filling of the medicine liquid.

[0037] Specifically, the clamping base 93 includes a protective shell 931 and a protective base 932, wherein the protective shell 931 and the protective base 932 are arc-shaped, and the arc surface coverage of the protective base 932 is larger than the coverage of the protective shell 931. When the expansion base plate 85 is moved longitudinally, it is pressed down on the protective base 932, and then the expansion airbag 84 is used to achieve support and fixation.

[0038] In use, the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are first prepared according to the medication requirements, and the medication requirements are printed onto their outer surfaces by inkjet printing. The first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are first guided by the first winding roller 1, and then guided a second time by the second winding roller 4. During this process, the ink is dried by the drying mechanism 2. Then, they are guided a third time by the third winding roller 10. The edges of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are sealed by the edge sealing component 7. After the operation, the bottom of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are sealed by the anti-splash component 9, and the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are clamped. Then, the filling component 8 is controlled to move longitudinally by the support component 5, so that the filling component 8 and the anti-splash component 9 cooperate to fill the cavities of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6.

[0039] Specifically, by guiding the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 through the first guide plate 71 and the second guide plate 72, the edges of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 gradually approach and fit together. By activating the sealing telescopic rod 74, the heat sealing plates 73 move closer to each other, thereby sealing the edges of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6. Then, by activating the connecting telescopic rod 51, the connecting support plate 53 moves longitudinally. Under the longitudinal movement of the fixed connecting rod 83, the expanding base plate 85 moves longitudinally, so that the expanding base plate 85 is tightly attached to the clamping base 93. That is, during this process, by activating the clamping telescopic rod 91, the clamping base 93 moves towards each other, so that the expanding base plate 85 is supported by the protective base 932. Then, by inflating the expanding airbag 84, the medicine enters the expanding base plate 85 through the feeding pipe 87, which can prevent the impact of the medicine on the sealing edge and protect the sealing edge of the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6.

[0040] After filling is completed, the expansion airbag 84 is vented, and the expansion base plate 85 is moved longitudinally by the connecting telescopic rod 51. At this time, the first packaging shell 3 and the second packaging shell 6 are moved longitudinally, and their tops are heat-sealed to realize the filling operation of traditional Chinese medicine beverage.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the present invention.
