Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of packaging bag breaking technology, and in particular relates to a portable device and method for breaking bags of granular Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a national treasure of my country, an important part of the excellent cultural heritage accumulated by our ancestors through long-term medical practice. With social development and technological progress, granule TCM has provided an expanded channel for clinical use in terms of speed, efficacy, and quality. However, although the packaging bags have easy-tear openings, making it convenient to open the bags, the force applied by hand varies from person to person, and inconsistent force can easily cause the granules to scatter. While cutting with scissors is manageable for a small number of bags, cutting dozens of bags becomes quite tedious. Even so, when traveling by air or train, security restrictions prohibit carrying tools like scissors, causing considerable inconvenience for taking TCM during travel. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a portable device and method for breaking open bags of granular Chinese medicine, which can break open one or more bags of medicine at the same time as needed, solving the problem that it is inconvenient to break open bags of Chinese medicine when taking Chinese medicine on the go due to security inspection restrictions of existing commonly used cutting tools.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solutions.

[0005] A portable device for breaking open granular Chinese medicine bags includes an upper clamp and a lower clamp. The front ends of the upper and lower clamps are connected by a hinge I. The inner sides are provided with cooperating upper and lower shear blades, and the rear ends are provided with an upper handle and a lower handle. The lower clamp mainly consists of a frame and two flaps inside the frame. The front and rear ends or left and right sides of the frame are provided with pivots. The two flaps are respectively connected to the frame through pivots. Each flap has a clamp on its inner side near the pivot. The distance between the clamps on the two flaps in a horizontal position is adapted to the length or width of the medicine bag. A limiting mechanism is provided on the frame at the joint of the two flaps. The lower shear blade is provided on the flap, and the length of the upper and lower shear blades is greater than the length or width of the medicine bag.

[0006] Furthermore, the frame of the lower clamp is a cylindrical structure with a height greater than the thickness of the flip plate. The connecting shaft and limiting mechanism of the two flip plates are respectively installed at the bottom of the cylindrical body. Hinge I is connected to the upper part of the front end of the cylindrical body. The lower handle is installed on the rear end wall of the cylindrical body. A groove is provided on the rear end wall of the cylindrical body between the upper and lower handles.

[0007] Furthermore, the frame height of the lower clamp is approximately equal to the thickness of the two flaps, and hinge I is connected to the front end of the frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the cooperating upper and lower shear blades are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the handle; or in the same direction as the handle.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper clamping body includes an upper handle, hinge I is connected to the front end of the upper handle, and the upper scissor blade is movably mounted on the upper handle.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper clamping body includes an upper handle, hinge I is connected to the front end of the upper handle, and the upper scissor blade is fixedly installed on the upper handle.

[0011] Furthermore, the lower shear blade is formed by two steps of varying heights at the joint of two flaps. The steps are formed by two flaps of different heights, with the end of the higher flap having a downward folded edge that rests on the end of the lower flap. The limiting mechanism is a crossbeam that cooperates with the lower flap and passes through the frame or cylinder.

[0012] Furthermore, the lower shear blade is formed by the gap at the joint of two flaps, and the width of the gap is greater than the thickness of the upper shear blade; the limiting mechanism is a U-shaped beam that cooperates with both flaps and passes through the frame or cylinder.

[0013] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism (44) and the flap (42) are coupled in the following ways: the crossbeam is located below the flap, or the crossbeam passes through or enters the side of the flap, and the corresponding side of the flap is provided with a through hole or blind hole that cooperates with the crossbeam.

[0014] A method for breaking open bags of granular Chinese medicine using the above-mentioned device includes the following: Hold the upper handle of the upper clamp and the lower handle of the lower clamp to open the upper clamp; The two flaps inside the lower clamp are restored to the horizontal position, and the limiting mechanism locks the two flaps in place. Place the medicine bag to be broken on the two flip plates of the lower clamp and use the clamps to hold the two sides of the medicine bag. Hold the upper and lower handles to press the upper and lower clamps together, and cut the medicine bag by coordinating the upper and lower scissor blades; Place the medicine receiving container or a commonly used ordinary container at the bottom of the frame or cylinder; When the limiting mechanism is opened, the two flaps automatically flip downwards around the axis under the action of gravity, so that the cut of the medicine bag faces downwards and the granular medicine is poured out of the medicine bag into the container below. Remove the empty medicine bag.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention, through the cooperation of upper and lower shear blades, can open one or more medicine bags in one operation. The flipping of two flaps within the lower clamping frame causes the cut of the medicine bag to face downwards, allowing the granular Chinese medicine to be poured out of the bag for easy collection. This invention can open one or more medicine bags simultaneously as needed. It features a simple structure, reasonable design, small size, and easy portability. It solves the problems of time-consuming and laborious manual tearing of medicine bags, and the easy scattering of medicine granules, as well as the inconvenience of opening medicine bags while traveling due to security restrictions on commonly used cutting tools. Furthermore, this invention can avoid the problem of medicine contamination caused by contact between the outer surface of the medicine bag and the medicine during the opening process.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] like Figures 1-15 As shown, a portable granular Chinese medicine bag breaking device includes an upper clamping body 1 and a lower clamping body 4. The front ends of the upper and lower clamping bodies are connected by a hinge I2, and the inner sides are provided with an upper shearing blade 31 and a lower shearing blade 32 that cooperate with each other. The rear ends are provided with an upper handle 11 and a lower handle 46. The lower clamping body 4 mainly consists of a frame 41 and two flaps 42 inside the frame 41. The front and rear ends or left and right sides of the frame 41 are provided with a rotating shaft 43. The two flaps 42 are respectively connected to the frame 41 through the rotating shaft 43, so that the flaps 42 can rotate around the rotating shaft 43 on the frame 41. The flaps 42 are free to swing inside. Each flap 42 is equipped with a clamp 45 near the pivot 43. The distance between the clamps 45 on the two flaps 42 in the horizontal position is adapted to the length or width of the medicine bag 5, so that the clamps 45 can just clamp the edge of the medicine bag 5. A limiting mechanism 44 is provided on the frame 41 at the joint of the two flaps 42 to limit the free swing of the flaps 42. The lower shear blade 32 is provided on the flap 42. The length of the upper and lower shear blades is greater than the length or width of the medicine bag 5, so as to ensure that the medicine bag 5 is completely broken after the upper and lower shear blades are pressed together.

[0020] Example 1: As Figures 1-8 As shown, the lower clamp 4 frame 41 of the demolition device is a cylindrical structure with the four sides closed. The upper shear blade 31 and the lower shear blade 32, which cooperate with each other, are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the handle. The upper shear blade 31 is movably mounted on the upper handle 11.

[0021] 1. Frame: The frame is a cylindrical structure, meaning the height (distance between the upper and lower edges in a horizontal state) of the frame 41 of the lower clamp 4 is greater than the thickness of the flip plate. The connection relationship between the cylindrical structure and other components is as follows: 1) The connecting shafts 43 of the two flip plates 42 are respectively installed at the front and rear ends of the bottom of the cylindrical body; 2) The limiting mechanism 44 of the two flip plates 42 is installed at the bottom of the cylindrical body and at the corresponding position of the docking point of the two flip plates; 3) The hinge I2 is connected to the upper part of the front end of the cylindrical body; 4) The lower handle 46 is installed on the rear end wall of the cylindrical body, and a groove 47 is provided on the rear end wall of the cylindrical body between the upper and lower handles 11 and 46. The function of this groove is to facilitate the unobstructed downward movement of the upper clamp 1 and ensure that the upper and lower shear blades are fully overlapped; 5) A medicine receiving container (figure omitted) can also be movably installed at the bottom of the cylindrical body. This container is optional and depends on the needs.

[0022] 2. Lower shear blade: The lower shear blade 32 is provided on the flap 42, including: 1) The lower shear blade 32 is formed by two flaps 42 at different heights at their joints. The higher and lower steps are formed by the two flaps 42 at different heights. The end of the higher flap has a downward folded edge, which rests on the end of the lower flap. The upper surfaces of the two flaps 42 are not on the same horizontal plane. When in use, part of the medicine bag falls on the higher flap, and the other part is at a certain distance from the lower flap. The limiting mechanism 44 is a crossbeam that cooperates with the lower flap and passes through the cylinder. The cooperation method includes: (1) The crossbeam is located below the flap. When in use, a crossbeam passes through a through hole on one side of the cylinder to a through hole on the other side; (2) The crossbeam passes through or enters the side of the flap, and the corresponding side of the flap has a through hole or blind hole that cooperates with the crossbeam. When using a through hole, it can be passed directly from one side to the other; when using a blind hole, it can be passed through from both sides, thus achieving the purpose of fixing the flap to the cylinder. The straight rod beam limits the lower flap, ensuring that the high and low flaps form a lower shear blade. The straight rod beam of the above two matching methods can be a smooth rod with an end cap (without threads) or a bolt (only for circular holes). The hole shape of the through hole or blind hole on the flap can be circular, rectangular, triangular, or dovetail groove, and it is adapted to the through hole at the bottom of the cylinder, and the cross section of the corresponding straight rod beam is adapted to the hole shape. 2) The lower shear blade 32 is formed by the gap at the joint of the two flaps 42. The width of the gap is greater than the thickness of the upper shear blade 31. The upper surfaces of the two flaps 42 are located on the same horizontal plane, and the medicine bag falls entirely on the two flaps during use; the limiting mechanism 44 is a U-shaped beam that cooperates with both flaps and passes through the cylinder. The fitting methods include: (1) The U-shaped crossbeam is located below the flap, and in use, the U-shaped crossbeam passes through the through hole on one side of the cylinder to the through hole on the other side; (2) The U-shaped crossbeam passes through or enters the side of the flap, and the corresponding side of the flap is provided with through holes or blind holes that cooperate with the U-shaped crossbeam. When using through holes, it can pass directly from one side to the other side; when using blind holes, it can be inserted from both sides, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the flap to the cylinder. The U-shaped crossbeam limits the two flaps on the same horizontal plane, ensuring that the two flaps form a downward shearing edge. The U-shaped crossbeams in the above two fitting methods are all smooth rods (without threads). The hole shape of the through hole or blind hole on the flap can be circular, rectangular, triangular, or dovetail groove, and is adapted to the through hole at the bottom of the cylinder. The cross section of each crossbeam of the corresponding U-shaped crossbeam is adapted to the hole shape.

[0023] 3. Upper Clamping Body: The upper clamping body 1, corresponding to the frame and lower shear blade described above, includes an upper handle 11. A hinge I 2 is connected to the front end of the upper handle 11. The upper shear blade 31 is movably mounted on the upper handle 11 and arranged in a direction perpendicular to the handle. The movable mounting of the upper shear blade 31 on the upper handle 11 means that: 1) the upper shear blade 31 is fixed to the inner side of the upper cover 12, and the outer side of the upper cover 12 is connected to the upper handle 11 via a hinge II 13. The shape and size of the upper cover 12 are adapted to the inner wall of the cylinder, facilitating the upper cover 12 to slide up and down along the cylinder; 2) the upper shear blade 31 is directly connected to the upper handle 11 via hinge II 13. The two ends of the upper shear blade 31 and the corresponding inner wall of the cylinder are provided with mutually cooperating guide mechanisms, facilitating the upper shear blade 31 to slide up and down along the cylinder.

[0024] 4. Function and Effect: In the above structure, the cylinder of the lower clamping body 4 frame 41 provides support for the connection of other components. Simultaneously, when engaging with the upper cover 12 or the two ends of the upper shear blade 31 in the upper clamping body 1, it also guides the upper shear blade 31 to slide up and down along the inner wall of the cylinder. This facilitates the alignment of the upper shear blade 31 and the lower shear blade 32 during cutting, allowing them to move downwards in a parallel state, achieving the goal of simultaneously contacting and cutting the medicine bag at both ends of the upper shear blade 31. Inside the cylinder, the ingenious combination of the flap 42, rotating shaft 43, limiting mechanism 44, and clamp 45 forms an inseparable, mutually cooperating whole. Before dismantling, this whole can not only be assembled with the flap 42 to form the lower shear blade 32 that engages with the upper shear blade 31, but after dismantling, the flap 42 can freely rotate downwards and swing left and right under gravity, achieving a convenient, fast, clean, and thorough unloading effect. Simultaneously, it avoids contact between the Chinese medicine and the outside of the packaging bag, ensuring that the Chinese medicine is not contaminated during the dismantling process.

[0025] Example 2: Refer to Figures 1-8 The lower clamp 4 frame 41 of the demolition device is a cylindrical structure with the four sides closed. The upper shear blade 31 and the lower shear blade 32 are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the handle, and the upper shear blade 31 is fixedly installed on the upper handle 11.

[0026] 1. Framework: (Same as the corresponding part in Example 1) 2. Lower shear blade: Unlike embodiment 1, since the upper shear blade 31 is fixedly mounted on the upper handle 11, the mating surface of the upper and lower shear blades is an arc-shaped surface that adapts to the running trajectory of the upper shear blade 31 during the rotation of the upper clamping body 1 around the hinge I2. This can avoid interference (scratching) between the upper and lower shear blades during the cutting and dismantling process. Other contents are the same as the corresponding parts of embodiment 1.

[0027] 3. Upper clamping body: Unlike embodiment 1, the upper shear blade 31 is fixedly installed on the upper handle 11. The fixed installation of the upper shear blade 31 on the upper handle 11 means that: 1) the upper shear blade 31 is fixed to the inner side of the upper cover 12, and the outer side of the upper cover 12 is fixedly connected to the upper handle 11 by bolts. The shape and size of the upper cover 12 are adapted to the inner wall of the cylinder, so as not to affect the arc-shaped movement of the upper clamping body 1 around the hinge I2; 2) the upper shear blade 31 is directly fixedly connected to the upper handle 11 by bolts.

[0028] 4. Function and Effect: Compared with Example 1, the lower clamping body 4 has no guiding effect on the upper cover 12 or the upper shear blade 31 in the upper clamping body 1, that is, the upper shear blade 31 does not move linearly under the guidance. Instead, during the cutting and dismantling process, the upper shear blade 31 moves in an arc around the hinge I2 along with the upper handle 11. Through the cooperation of the arc-shaped joint surfaces of the upper and lower shear blades, the purpose of the upper shear blade 31 contacting and cutting the medicine bag at the same time is achieved. Other contents are the same as the corresponding parts of Example 1.

[0029] Example 3: Reference Figures 1-8 The lower clamp 4 frame 41 of the demolition device is a frame structure with the four sides closed. The upper shear blade 31 and the lower shear blade 32 are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the handle, and the upper shear blade 31 is fixedly installed on the upper handle 11.

[0030] 1. Frame: The frame 41 of the lower clamp 4 has a height (distance between the upper and lower sides in the horizontal state) that is approximately equal to the thickness of the two flaps 42. The connection relationship between the frame 41 and other components is as follows: 1) The connecting shafts 43 of the two flaps 42 are respectively installed at the front and rear ends of the frame 41 (equivalent to...). Figure 6 ); 2) The limiting mechanism 44 of the two flaps 42 is installed on the frame 41 corresponding to the docking point of the two flaps; 3) The hinge I2 is connected to the front end of the frame 41; 4) The lower handle 46 is installed on the rear end of the frame 41; 5) A medicine receiving container (figure omitted) can also be movably installed on the frame 41. The container is optional and depends on the needs.

[0031] 2. Lower shear blade: Unlike Example 2, "cylinder" is replaced with "frame". All other aspects are the same as the corresponding parts of Example 2.

[0032] 3. Upper clamp: Unlike embodiment 2, the shape and size of the upper cover 12 should be appropriate and should not be related to the frame 41. Other contents are the same as the corresponding parts of embodiment 2.

[0033] 4. Function and Effect: The difference from Example 2 is that "cylinder" is replaced with "frame". Other contents are the same as the corresponding parts of Example 2.

[0034] Example 4: Figures 9-15As shown, the lower clamp 4 frame 41 of the demolition device is a cylindrical structure with the four sides closed. The upper shear blade 31 and the lower shear blade 32 that cooperate with each other are arranged in the same direction as the handle. The upper shear blade 31 is movably mounted on the upper handle 11.

[0035] 1. Frame: Unlike Embodiment 1, "front and rear ends" are replaced with "left and right sides". Other contents are the same as the corresponding parts of Embodiment 1.

[0036] 2. Lower shear blade: Unlike Example 1, "one side" is replaced with "one end", and "the other side" is replaced with "the other end". Other contents are the same as the corresponding parts of Example 1.

[0037] 3. Upper clamp: Unlike Embodiment 1, the statement "the upper scissor blade 31 is movably mounted on the upper handle 11 and arranged in a direction perpendicular to the handle" is replaced with "the upper scissor blade 31 is movably mounted on the upper handle 11 and arranged in the same direction as the handle". Other details are the same as the corresponding parts of Embodiment 1.

[0038] 4. Function and effect: (Same as the corresponding part of Example 1).

[0039] Example 5: Refer to Figures 9-15 The lower clamp 4 frame 41 of the demolition device is a cylindrical structure with the four sides closed. The upper shear blade 31 and the lower shear blade 32, which cooperate with each other, are arranged in the same direction as the handle. The upper shear blade 31 is fixedly installed on the upper handle 11.

[0040] 1. Frame: (Same as the corresponding part in Example 4).

[0041] 2. Lower shear blade: (Same as the corresponding part in Embodiment 4). Compared with Embodiment 4, although the upper shear blade 31 is fixedly installed on the upper handle 11, since the upper and lower shear blades are arranged in the same direction as the handle, there is no problem of interference (scratching) between the upper and lower shear blades during the cutting and dismantling process.

[0042] 3. Upper clamping body: Unlike embodiment 4, the upper shear blade 31 is fixedly installed on the upper handle 11. The fixed installation of the upper shear blade 31 on the upper handle 11 means that: 1) the upper shear blade 31 is fixed to the inner side of the upper cover 12, and the outer side of the upper cover 12 is fixedly connected to the upper handle 11 by bolts. The shape and size of the upper cover 12 are adapted to the inner wall of the cylinder, so as not to affect the arc-shaped movement of the upper clamping body 1 around the hinge I2; 2) the upper shear blade 31 is directly fixedly connected to the upper handle 11 by bolts.

[0043] 4. Function and Effect: Unlike Example 4, during the dismantling process, the upper shear blade 31 moves in an arc around the hinge I2 along with the upper handle 11, starting to cut near the hinge I2 until the upper and lower shear blades are completely pressed together, breaking the medicine bag as a whole. Other contents are the same as the corresponding parts of Example 4.

[0044] Example 6: Refer to Figures 9-15 The lower clamp 4 frame 41 of the demolition device is a frame structure with the four sides closed. The upper shear blade 31 and the lower shear blade 32, which cooperate with each other, are arranged in the same direction as the handle. The upper shear blade 31 is fixedly installed on the upper handle 11.

[0045] 1. Frame: Unlike Example 3, "front and rear ends" are replaced with "left and right sides" (equivalent to...). Figure 6 Replace with Figure 14 Other content is the same as the corresponding part of Example 3.

[0046] 2. Lower shear blade: (same as the corresponding part in Example 5).

[0047] 3. Upper clamp: (same as the corresponding part in Example 5).

[0048] 4. Function and effect: (Same as the corresponding part of Example 5).

[0049] The present invention provides a method for breaking open bags of granular Chinese medicine using the aforementioned device, comprising the following steps: 1) Hold the upper handle 11 of the upper clamp 1 and the lower handle 46 of the lower clamp 4 to open the upper clamp 1; 2) Return the two flaps 42 inside the lower clamp 4 to the horizontal position, and lock the two flaps 42 by the limiting mechanism 44; 3) Place the medicine bag 5 to be broken on the two flaps 42 of the lower clamp 4, and use the clamp 45 to clamp the two sides of the medicine bag 5. 4) Hold the upper handle 11 and the lower handle 46 to press the upper clamp 1 and the lower clamp 4 together, and cut the medicine bag 5 by the cooperation of the upper scissor blade 31 and the lower scissor blade 32. 5) Place the receiving container or a commonly used ordinary container at the bottom of the frame or cylinder; 6) Open the limiting mechanism 44, and the two flaps 42 will automatically flip downward around the rotating shaft 43 under the action of gravity, so that the cut of the medicine bag 5 will face downward and pour the granular medicine from the medicine bag 5 into the container below. 7) Remove the empty medicine bag.

[0050] The above steps can also be performed in the following order: 2)—1)—3)—4)—5)—6)—7); or 2)—5)—1)—3)—4)—6)—7); or 1)—2)—5)—3)—4)—6)—7); or 1)—2)—3)—5)—4)—6)—7).
