Description
Technical Field

[0002] Astragalus root, or *Astragalus membranaceus* or *Astragalus mongholicus*, is the dried root of a plant belonging to the genus *Astragalus* in the legume family. It is a perennial herb. Astragalus is renowned as the "best among qi-tonifying herbs," making it a precious and commonly used traditional Chinese medicine. After slicing, some residue remains, and during storage and transportation, some astragalus may be damaged, infested by insects, or moldy. Therefore, astragalus slices must be sorted before processing.

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example 1
[0032] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a sorting device for processing Astragalus membranaceus according to a first aspect embodiment of the present invention includes an installation platform 1. A support block 2 is fixed to the upper end of the installation platform 1, and a screening screen 3 is provided on the upper side of the support block 2 for sorting Astragalus membranaceus residue. The support block 2 is symmetrically arranged about the center of the installation platform 1, which can accommodate the reciprocating movement of the screening screen 3 and prevent material leakage due to the displacement gap between the screening screen 3 and the installation platform 1. A fixed baffle 6 is installed on the right side of the support block 2 located on the right side of the installation platform 1, and a fixed baffle 6 is provided on the left side of the support block 2 located on the left side of the installation platform 1. There is a movable baffle 5, and the lower end of the movable baffle 5 is elastically rotatably connected to a fixed side plate 4 fixed to the left side of the installation platform 1. Movable plates 15 are installed on both the front and rear sides of the movable baffle 5, and a limit post 18 is installed at the rear end of the movable plate 15. The movable plate 15 and the limit post 18 form an elastic rotatable connection, and the movable plate 15 and the protrusions at the front and rear ends of the movable baffle 5 form a snap-fit connection, so that the movable baffle 5 and the movable plate 15 can close again after being reset by the spring. A blocking plate 14 is installed on the inner side of the limit post 18, and the astragalus material is introduced from the upper side of the blocking plate 14.
[0033] Mounting plate 7 is positioned on the upper side of mounting platform 1, and an electric telescopic rod 8 is mounted on the upper end of mounting plate 7. The upper end of the electric telescopic rod 8 is bolted to the ceiling or a fixed bracket. The electric telescopic rod 8 controls the raising and lowering of mounting plate 7, facilitating cleaning of the upper side of mounting platform 1. A forward / reverse reversing connection mechanism 11 is mounted on the lower side of mounting plate 7. A forward / reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9 is located on the right side of the forward / reverse reversing connection mechanism 11. The forward / reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9 is symmetrically arranged about the center of mounting plate 7. A vibration mechanism 12 is mounted on the lower end of the forward / reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9. A connecting plate 10 is fixed to the outer side of the forward / reverse reversing connection mechanism 11, and a gear tooth structure is fixed to the outer surface of the connecting plate 10. The forward / reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9 includes a first mounting plate 10. The first mounting wheel 901 is rotatably connected to the lower side of the first mounting wheel 901, and the outer side of the first mounting wheel 901 is meshed with the upper mounting belt 904. The outer side of the second mounting wheel 902 is meshed with the lower mounting belt 905. Connecting belts 903 are installed on the outer sides of both the lower mounting belt 905 and the upper mounting belt 904. The connecting belts 903 are symmetrically arranged about the center of the connecting plate 10. The inner surface of the connecting belts 903 is fixed with a tooth structure for driving the displacement and rotation of the drive wheel 17 installed on the outer side of the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9. The forward and reverse connecting mechanism 11 includes a fixed column 1101. The inner side of the fixed column 1101 is equipped with the first connecting wheel 1102, and the lower end of the first connecting wheel 1102 is equipped with a first... The transmission wheel 1103 has a second transmission wheel 1104 located below it, and a second connecting wheel 1105 is fixed to the lower end of the second transmission wheel 1104. The upper end of the first connecting wheel 1102 is engaged with the first mounting wheel 901, and the second connecting wheel 1105 is engaged with the second mounting wheel 902. The forward and reverse connecting mechanism 11 can reverse the rotation direction between the first mounting wheel 901 and the second mounting wheel 902, thereby facilitating the reverse rotation of the upper mounting belt 904 and the lower mounting belt 905. The vibration mechanism 12 includes a mounting disc 1201, and a connecting post 1202 is fixed to the lower end of the mounting disc 1201. A mounting strip 1203 is provided on the outer side of the connecting post 1202. A fixing rod 1204 is fixed to the lower side of the mounting strip 1203, and a mounting base 1205 is fixed to the lower end of the fixing rod 1204. A limiting block 22 fixed to the upper end of the screening screen plate 3 is engaged with the lower side of the mounting base 1205. This allows the connecting column 1202 to rotate with the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9 during rotation, and the connecting column 1202 to slide within the mounting strip 1203. This causes the fixing rod 1204 to slide back and forth, which in turn drives the vibration mechanism 12 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion. This causes the limiting block 22 installed with the vibration mechanism 12 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion, generating a certain degree of vibration. This facilitates the movement of Astragalus membranaceus residue on the surface of the screening screen plate 3, so that it can be filtered and screened by the screening screen plate 3.
[0034] A transmission plate 16 is fixed to the lower side of the mounting plate 7 on the outer side of the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9, and a gear tooth structure is provided on the inner side of the transmission plate 16. The upper and lower ends of the transmission plate 16 are respectively fitted with the connecting belt 903. A motor-driven drive wheel 24 is installed on the outer side of the connecting plate 10. The motor is installed on the inner side of the connecting plate 10. The width of the drive wheel 17 is larger than the width of the connecting belt 903. When the drive wheel 17 moves with the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9, after the drive wheel 17 moves to the bend of the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9, the drive wheel 17 moves into the transmission plate 16 and maintains engagement with the transmission plate 16. Then the drive wheel 24 drives the drive wheel 17 to move, moving around the inner diameter of the transmission plate 16, so that it engages with the connecting belt 903 on the other side, and then continues to drive the drive wheel 17 to move. This process is repeated, so that the flat plate 13 can perform horizontal reciprocating motion.
[0035] The drive wheel 17 is mounted on the outside of the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9, and the outer side of the drive wheel 17 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 19. The inner side of the connecting shaft 19 is slidably mounted with the mounting column 20, and the outer end of the mounting column 20 is fixed with the limit column 18. This prevents the drive wheel 17 from having position conflicts when it is driven by the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9. The upper end of the limit column 18 is slidably connected with the mounting plate 7, which facilitates the forward and reverse synchronous rotation mechanism 9 to constrain the limit column 18 when it drives the drive wheel 17 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion.
[0036] The lower end of the limiting column 18 is equipped with an installation shaft 21, and the lower end of the installation shaft 21 is fixed with a flat plate 13. This allows the horizontal reciprocating movement of the limiting column 18 to drive the flat plate 13 to reciprocate horizontally, so that the flat plate 13 can flatten the Astragalus membranaceus accumulated on the surface of the screening mesh plate 3, thus avoiding excessive accumulation and affecting the sorting effect.
[0037] The technical effects achieved by the above embodiments are as follows: a small number of motors are used to achieve the turning and vibrating of Astragalus membranaceus during sorting, while maintaining a good screening effect. Furthermore, the rotation between the movable baffle 5 and the fixed side plate 4 facilitates material discharge and avoids [other problems]. Example 2
[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, a sorting device for processing Astragalus membranaceus includes all the contents of Example 1. In addition, the mounting shaft 21 and the limiting post 18 form an elastic rotatable connection. The outer side of the mounting shaft 21 is provided with a gear tooth structure at equal angles. Limiting rods 23 are installed on the upper side of both the fixed baffle 6 and the movable plate 15.
[0039] The technical effect achieved by the above embodiment is as follows: when the mounting shaft 21 moves to the limiting rod 23, the gear structure of the mounting shaft 21 and the limiting rod 23 meshes, thereby driving the mounting shaft 21 to rotate, causing the flat plate 13 to deflect, and turning over the Astragalus membranaceus accumulated in the fixed baffle 6 and the movable plate 15, so as to prevent the Astragalus membranaceus from accumulating in the groove structure of the fixed baffle 6 and the movable plate 15.
