[0023] The present invention also claims a method for preparing a Chinese medicine composition paste using the above-mentioned production device, comprising the following steps:

[0024] S1, take the formula amount of Codonopsis pilosula and Cortex rotundifolia, add 8 times the amount of water to slightly boil and extract to obtain a first extract, and then concentrate the first extract into a first extract; take the formula amount of Gastrodia elata and Ganoderma lucidum, use 8 times the amount of ethanol to reflux and extract to obtain a second extract, and then concentrate the second extract into a second extract;

[0025] S2. Put the first extract and the second extract into one of the extract mixing tanks, start the hydraulic lifting rod, make the L-shaped transmission rod abut against one side of the first transmission block, and then start the motor and the heating plate. The heating plate heats the extract mixing tank to 60-80°C, and the motor drives the connecting main shaft and the second transmission gear to rotate; due to the meshing of the second transmission gear and the first transmission gear and the meshing of the first transmission gear and the inner gear ring of the ring plate, the ring plate, the stirring rod and the stirring blade rotate synchronously and the rotation direction is opposite to the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft; at this time, the stirring rod and the stirring blade stir the extract in the extract mixing tank and move the peripheral extract to the middle of the extract mixing tank. At the same time, the rotation of the connecting main shaft drives the auger blade to rotate, and the extract at the bottom of the extract mixing tank is lifted to the top of the extract mixing tank through the lifting cylinder;

[0026] S3. Turn off the motor and start the hydraulic lifting rod to make the L-shaped transmission rod pass through the first transmission slot and the second transmission slot at the same time, then start the motor again, and the motor drives the connecting main shaft and the circular bottom plate to rotate as a whole; due to the limitation of the L-shaped transmission rod, the first transmission gear does not rotate at this time and will engage with the inner gear ring of the ring plate to limit the position, so that the ring plate, the stirring rod and the stirring blade rotate synchronously and the rotation direction is the same as the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft; after stirring evenly, a mixed extract is obtained, the mixed extract is taken out, and then the mixed extract is prepared in another extract mixing tank;

[0027] S4. While another extract mixing tank is preparing a mixed extract, the previous extract mixing tank is cleaned, water is added to the extract mixing tank, and then the water is heated to 60-80° C. by a heating plate and allowed to stand; when the other extract mixing tank also prepares a mixed extract and takes it out, a closed valve and a water pump are started to pump the water from the previous extract mixing tank into the other extract mixing tank, and then the corresponding closed valve and water pump are closed and allowed to stand; the previous extract mixing tank is continued to prepare a mixed extract, and the cycle is repeated, and the water is circulated and cleaned by two water pumps with different pumping directions;

[0028] S5. Concentrate the prepared mixed extract into a thick paste, and then boil it into a paste.

[0029] Furthermore, the weight ratio of the added Codonopsis pilosula, Gastrodia elata, Quercus officinale and Ganoderma lucidum is 80-120 parts: 40-60 parts: 40-60 parts and 20-30 parts;

[0030] The concentration in S1 is carried out at -0.06 MPa to -0.08 MPa and a temperature of 60-80°C, and is concentrated to a relative density of 1.08 to 1.12; the concentration in S5 is carried out at -0.06 MPa to -0.08 MPa and a temperature of 60-80°C, and is concentrated to a relative density of 1.28 to 1.32; the boiling is carried out at a temperature of 100 to 110°C, and the boiling relative density reaches 1.35 to 1.37.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0032] (1) The present invention cooperates with the water exchange mechanism and the two extract mixing tanks, so that the water body can not only circulate and clean the extract mixing tanks, saving water, but also improving the cleaning efficiency and reducing energy consumption. Specifically, when one of the extract mixing tanks is mixing the extract, the other extract mixing tank is filled with water at 60-80°C, so that the residual extract adhering to the extract mixing tank has reduced viscosity and quickly dissolved in the water body to achieve cleaning. Since the water body after the residual extract is dissolved still has enough space and capacity to dissolve other extracts, the present invention circulates the water body in the two extract mixing tanks for cleaning through a water pump and a water exchange pipe, which can be used multiple times. While saving water, the circulating water body still retains temperature, avoiding the problem of reheating the water body for each conventional cleaning, thereby improving cleaning efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

[0033] At the same time, through the cooperation of the heating plate and the water body, the temperature inside the extract mixing tank is always maintained at a certain level, which can heat the extract in the extract mixing tank and reduce the viscosity of the extract, thereby making the mixing easier and more uniform.

[0034] (2) The present invention can evenly mix the extract in the extract mixing tank through the cooperation of the stirring control mechanism with the stirring mechanism and the lifting mechanism, thereby solving the problems of low fluidity and easy stratification of the extract; specifically, the hydraulic lifting rod drives the motor to move up and down, so that the L-shaped transmission rod abuts against one side of the first transmission block; at this time, the operation of the motor can rotate the L-shaped transmission rod; since the L-shaped transmission rod abuts against the first transmission block, the first transmission block will also rotate along, thereby causing the connecting main shaft and the second transmission gear fixedly connected to the first transmission block to rotate together; in the gear meshing state, the self-rotation of the second transmission gear drives the self-rotation of the first transmission gears around it, and the self-rotation of the first transmission gear will drive the ring plate to rotate, and finally the stirring rod and the stirring blade fixedly connected to the ring plate will rotate synchronously and the rotation direction is opposite to the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft; the stirring rod and the stirring blade will stir the extract in the extract mixing tank and move the peripheral extract to the middle of the extract mixing tank;

[0035] At the same time, when the motor drives the stirring rod and the stirring blade to rotate to achieve the stirring and plucking effects, the auger blades connected to the side wall of the lower end of the main shaft will also rotate inside the lifting cylinder, so that the extract at the bottom of the extract mixing tank is lifted to the top of the extract mixing tank through the lifting cylinder under the rotation of the auger blades, and the extract at the top of the extract mixing tank is squeezed downward to the periphery of the lifting cylinder, so that the lower layer of the extract mixing tank and the upper layer of the extract are circulated and exchanged, and the plucking exchange of the outer extract and the middle extract of the extract mixing tank is combined to comprehensively solve the problems of low fluidity and easy stratification of the extract, so that the extract is evenly mixed.

[0036] (3) The present invention cooperates with the motor and the stirring control mechanism to enable the motor to switch the rotation direction of the stirring mechanism without changing the rotation direction of the auger blade, thereby realizing rapid switching of the stirring direction of the stirring mechanism without affecting the lifting effect of the auger blade, thereby further mixing the extract and making the extract mixing more uniform and thorough; specifically, when it is necessary to change the rotation direction of the stirring mechanism, the motor is turned off, and the motor is further lowered by starting the hydraulic lifting rod, so that the L-shaped transmission rod passes through the first transmission slot and the second transmission slot at the same time; then the motor is started again, and the output shaft of the motor will control the rotation of the L-shaped transmission rod; within the limit of the L-shaped transmission rod When the gears are in the same position as before, the connecting main shaft, the second transmission gear and the circular bottom plate will rotate as a whole, and due to the limitation of the L-shaped transmission rod, the second transmission gear and the first transmission gear will not rotate on their own; at this time, due to the engagement limitation of the first transmission gear on the inner gear ring of the ring plate, the ring plate will also rotate as a whole with the connecting main shaft and the circular bottom plate, and finally the rotation direction of the stirring rod and the stirring blade will be the same as the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft, thereby quickly changing the rotation direction of the stirring mechanism, thereby further mixing the extract; and, at this time, the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft has not changed, thereby not affecting the lifting effect of the auger blades on the extract at the bottom of the extract mixing tank, thereby making the extract mixing more uniform and thorough.

[0037] (4) The present invention extracts Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Ganodermae by adding water and slightly boiling. Since the polysaccharides and amino acids in Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Ganodermae have good solubility in water, the active ingredients in Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Ganodermae are more easily and quickly extracted, and the polysaccharides and amino acids in Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Ganodermae have the effects of enhancing immunity and resisting fatigue. The present invention also extracts Gastrodia elata and Ganoderma lucidum by ethanol reflux. Since the active ingredients such as gastrodin in Gastrodia elata and the polysaccharides and triterpenoids in Ganoderma lucidum also have good solubility in ethanol, the active ingredients in Gastrodia elata and Ganoderma lucidum are more easily and quickly extracted, and the active ingredients such as gastrodin in Gastrodia elata have the effects of calming the nerves and improving headaches, and the ingredients such as Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides and triterpenoids in Ganoderma lucidum have the effects of enhancing immunity and resisting fatigue. The prepared extracts are then mixed evenly, concentrated and boiled into a paste. The obtained Chinese medicine composition has the effects of conditioning the body, enhancing immunity, improving sleep quality and relieving stress. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] Example

[0048] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a production device for a Chinese medicine composition paste includes two extract mixing tanks 100. A tank cover 400 is fixedly inserted on the top of the extract mixing tank 100. A hydraulic lifting rod 300 is fixedly installed on the tank cover 400. The telescopic end of the hydraulic lifting rod 300 is fixedly connected to the motor 200 through a connecting frame 310; a communication port 430 is opened through the middle of the top of the tank cover 400, and a feed port 420 is also connected to the top of the tank cover 400;

[0049] A heating plate 140 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer wall of the extract mixing tank 100. A water exchange mechanism 900 is provided between the two extract mixing tanks 100. The water exchange mechanism 900 includes two water exchange pipes 910. The two water exchange pipes 910 connect the bottom of the side walls of the two extract mixing tanks 100. A water pump 920 and a closing valve 930 are installed on each water exchange pipe 910, and the two water pumps 920 pump water in opposite directions.

[0050] The extract mixing tank 100 is provided with a stirring control mechanism 800. The output shaft of the motor 200 extends into the extract mixing tank 100 through the communication port 430 to provide power to the stirring control mechanism 800. This will be described in detail later.

[0051] A stirring mechanism 500 is provided inside the extract mixing tank 100 , and the stirring mechanism 500 is transmission-connected to a stirring control mechanism 800 .

[0052] It is worth noting that the hydraulic lifting rod 300 is used to control the lifting and lowering of the motor 200. The hydraulic lifting rod 300, the water pump 920, the motor 200 and other power equipment are all powered by an external power supply and will not be described in detail here.

[0053] The present invention cooperates with the water exchange mechanism 900 and the two extract mixing tanks 100, so that the water body can not only circulate and clean the extract mixing tanks 100, saving water, but also improving cleaning efficiency and reducing energy consumption. Specifically, when one of the extract mixing tanks 100 is mixing extracts, the other extract mixing tank 100 is filled with water at 60-80°C, so that the residual extract adhering to the extract mixing tank 100 has reduced viscosity and quickly dissolved in the water body to achieve cleaning. Since the water body after the residual extract is dissolved still has enough space and capacity to dissolve other extracts, the present invention circulates the water body in the two extract mixing tanks 100 for cleaning through the water pump 920 and the water exchange pipe 910, which can be used multiple times. While saving water, since the circulating water body still retains temperature, the problem of needing to reheat the water body for each conventional cleaning is avoided, thereby improving cleaning efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

[0054] At the same time, through the cooperation of the heating plate 140 and the water body, the interior of the extract mixing tank 100 always has a certain temperature, which can heat the extract in the extract mixing tank 100 and reduce the viscosity of the extract, making mixing easier and more uniform.

[0055] It is worth noting that when the water body is used to clean the extract mixing tank 100, the water body can be auxiliary stirred by the stirring mechanism 500, which will not be described in detail here.

[0056] Furthermore, the stirring control mechanism 800 includes a circular bottom plate 810, with four first connecting shafts 820 fixedly disposed in an annular direction on the top of the circular bottom plate 810. A first stopper 821 is fixedly disposed at one end of the first connecting shaft 820 away from the circular bottom plate 810. The first connecting shaft 820 is rotatably connected to a first transmission gear 830 via a bearing.

[0057] Four second connecting shafts 840 are fixedly provided on the top of the circular base plate 810 in an annular direction. The second connecting shafts 840 are spaced apart from the first connecting shafts 820. A second stopper 841 is fixedly provided on one end of the second connecting shaft 840 away from the circular base plate 810.

[0058] The tank cover 400 is provided with an annular groove 440, the notch of which faces the interior of the extract mixing tank 100 and has a T-shaped cross-section. The second stopper 841 is engaged with the annular groove 440 and is slidably connected thereto. This design allows the second connecting shaft 840 and the second stopper 841 to slide within the annular groove 440, thereby causing the second connecting shaft 840 and the circular bottom plate 810 to rotate as a whole when powered, as will be described in detail later.

[0059] Furthermore, a connecting hole 850 is formed in the middle of the circular bottom plate 810, and a lifting mechanism 700 is provided on the connecting hole 850. The lifting mechanism 700 includes a connecting main shaft 710, which is rotatably connected to the connecting hole 850 via a connecting bearing 730; a second transmission gear 740 is fixedly connected to the connecting main shaft 710, and the second transmission gear 740 is meshed with all the first transmission gears 830;

[0060] The stirring mechanism 500 includes a ring plate 510, with a plurality of stirring rods 520 uniformly fixedly connected to the bottom of the ring plate 510. A plurality of stirring blades 521 are vertically and uniformly fixedly connected to the side walls of the stirring rods 520. The stirring blades 521 are arranged toward the inner central axis of the extract mixing tank 100. The inner side wall of the ring plate 510 is provided with an inner gear ring, which is meshed with all the first transmission gears 830.

[0061] This meshing method ensures that when the connecting main shaft 710 and the second transmission gear 740 rotate, the surrounding first transmission gears 830 can be driven to rotate, and then the first transmission gear 830 drives the ring plate 510 to rotate, and finally the rotation direction of the ring plate 510 is opposite to the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft 710.

[0062] The top of the extract mixing tank 100 is a large-diameter tank body 130 . The connection between the large-diameter tank body 130 and the extract mixing tank 100 is a stepped opening 131 . The ring plate 510 movably abuts against the stepped opening 131 .

[0063] Furthermore, a first transmission block 750 is fixedly mounted on the top of the connecting spindle 710. The output shaft of the motor 200 is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft 210. Two L-shaped transmission rods 220 are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the sidewalls of the transmission shaft 210. When the L-shaped transmission rods 220 abut one side of the first transmission block 750, the output shaft of the motor 200 rotates, driving the connecting spindle 710 to rotate. This allows the motor 200 to control the rotation of the connecting spindle 710 and the second transmission gear 740, and through meshing, ultimately causes the stirring rod 520 and stirring blade 521 to rotate, stirring the extract while moving the outer extract toward the center of the extract mixing tank 100 to improve the degree of lateral mixing of the extract.

[0064] It is worth noting that when the L-shaped transmission rod 220 only abuts against one side of the first transmission block 750, the operation of the motor 200 can only control the rotation of the connecting main shaft 710, the second transmission gear 740, the first transmission gear 830 and the ring plate 510, and the circular base plate 810 and the connecting main shaft 710 are connected to each other through the connecting bearing 730, so the circular base plate 810 does not rotate at this time.

[0065] Furthermore, a lifting cylinder 600 is provided in the middle of the extract mixing tank 100, and a plurality of L-shaped support frames 610 are evenly fixed on the lower end of the cylinder wall of the lifting cylinder 600. The L-shaped support frames 610 are fixedly screwed to the bottom of the extract mixing tank 100 by screws;

[0066] An auger blade 720 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the lower end of the connecting main shaft 710, and the auger blade 720 is located inside the lifting cylinder 600. By rotating the auger blade 720, the extract at the bottom of the extract mixing tank 100 can be lifted to the top of the extract mixing tank 100, thereby improving the mixing degree of the extract in the longitudinal direction.

[0067] The present invention can make the extract in the extract mixing tank 100 be mixed evenly by the cooperation of the stirring control mechanism 800 with the stirring mechanism 500 and the lifting mechanism 700, thereby solving the problems of low fluidity and easy stratification of the extract; specifically, the hydraulic lifting rod 300 drives the motor 200 to move up and down, so that the L-shaped transmission rod 220 abuts against one side of the first transmission block 750; at this time, the operation of the motor 200 can make the L-shaped transmission rod 220 rotate; because the L-shaped transmission rod 220 abuts against the first transmission block 750, the first transmission block 750 will also rotate accordingly, thereby making the L-shaped transmission rod 220 fixed to the first transmission block 750 rotate. The connecting main shaft 710 and the second transmission gear 740 are fixedly connected and rotate together; in the gear meshing state, the rotation of the second transmission gear 740 drives the first transmission gear 830 around it to rotate, and the rotation of the first transmission gear 830 drives the ring plate 510 to rotate, and finally the stirring rod 520 and the stirring blade 521 fixedly connected to the ring plate 510 rotate synchronously and the rotation direction is opposite to the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft 710; the stirring rod 520 and the stirring blade 521 stir the extract in the extract mixing tank 100 and move the extract on the periphery to the middle of the extract mixing tank 100;

[0068] At the same time, when the motor 200 drives the stirring rod 520 and the stirring blade 521 to rotate to achieve the stirring and stirring effects, the auger blade 720 connected to the side wall of the lower end of the main shaft 710 will also rotate inside the lifting cylinder 600, so that the extract at the bottom of the extract mixing tank 100 is lifted to the top of the extract mixing tank 100 through the lifting cylinder 600 under the rotation of the auger blade 720, and the extract at the top of the extract mixing tank 100 is squeezed downward to the periphery of the lifting cylinder 600, so that the lower layer of extract and the upper layer of extract in the extract mixing tank 100 are circulated and exchanged, and the stirring exchange of the peripheral extract and the middle extract in the extract mixing tank 100 comprehensively solves the problems of low fluidity and easy stratification of the extract, thereby making the extract mixed evenly.

[0069] Furthermore, a first transmission slot 760 is provided through the second transmission gear 740, and a second transmission slot 860 is provided through the circular base plate 810; the L-shaped transmission rod 220 corresponds to the first transmission slot 760 and the second transmission slot 860. When the L-shaped transmission rod 220 passes through the first transmission slot 760 and the second transmission slot 860 at the same time, the output shaft of the motor 200 rotates to drive the connecting main shaft 710 and the circular base plate 810 to rotate as a whole.

[0070] The present invention cooperates with the motor 200 and the stirring control mechanism 800 to enable the motor 200 to switch the rotation direction of the stirring mechanism 500 without changing the rotation direction of the auger blade 720, thereby achieving rapid switching of the stirring direction of the stirring mechanism 500 without affecting the lifting effect of the auger blade 720, thereby further mixing the extract and making the extract mixed more uniformly and thoroughly; specifically, when it is necessary to change the rotation direction of the stirring mechanism 500, the motor is turned off, and the hydraulic lifting rod 300 is started to further descend, so that the L-shaped transmission rod 220 passes through the first transmission slot 760 and the second transmission slot 860 at the same time; then the motor 200 is started again, and at this time the output shaft of the motor 200 controls the rotation of the L-shaped transmission rod 220; under the limit of the L-shaped transmission rod 220, The connecting main shaft 710, the second transmission gear 740 and the circular bottom plate 810 will rotate as a whole, and due to the limitation of the L-shaped transmission rod 220, the second transmission gear 740 and the first transmission gear 830 will not rotate on their own; at this time, due to the meshing limitation of the first transmission gear 830 on the inner gear ring of the ring plate 510, the ring plate 510 will also rotate as a whole with the connecting main shaft 710, and finally the rotation direction of the stirring rod 520 and the stirring blade 521 is the same as the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft 710, thereby quickly changing the rotation direction of the stirring mechanism 500, thereby further mixing the extract; and, at this time, the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft 710 has not changed, so as not to affect the lifting effect of the auger blade 720 on the extract at the bottom of the extract mixing tank 100, thereby making the extract mixing more uniform and thorough.

[0071] Furthermore, two first ear plates 132 are symmetrically fixed to the top of the side wall of the large-diameter tank body 130, and two second ear plates 410 are symmetrically fixed to the side wall of the tank cover 400. The first ear plates 132 and the second ear plates 410 are fixedly connected by bolts.

[0072] It is worth noting that there is a gap between the circular bottom plate 810 and the ring plate 510, and the feed port 420 is located above the gap, so that the extract can be added to the interior of the extract mixing tank 100 through the feed port 420; at the same time, the size of the gap in the accompanying drawings is only a schematic diagram and does not limit the size, and can be adjusted according to actual conditions; and, the extract can also be added by removing the tank cover 400, which will not be explained in detail here.

[0073] Furthermore, a discharge port 110 is provided in the middle of the bottom of the extract mixing tank 100 , and valves are installed on the feed port 420 and the discharge port 110 ; a plurality of supporting legs 120 are fixedly provided on the bottom of the extract mixing tank 100 .

[0074] A method for preparing a Chinese medicine composition paste using the above-mentioned production device comprises the following steps:

[0075] S1, take the formula amount of Codonopsis pilosula and Cortex rotundifolia, add 8 times the amount of water to slightly boil and extract to obtain a first extract, and then concentrate the first extract into a first extract; take the formula amount of Gastrodia elata and Ganoderma lucidum, use 8 times the amount of ethanol to reflux and extract to obtain a second extract, and then concentrate the second extract into a second extract;

[0076] S2, put the first extract and the second extract into one of the extract mixing tanks 100, start the hydraulic lifting rod 300, make the L-shaped transmission rod 220 abut against one side of the first transmission block 750, then start the motor 200 and the heating plate 140, the heating plate 140 heats the extract mixing tank 100 to 60-80 ° C, the motor 200 drives the connecting main shaft 710 and the second transmission gear 740 to rotate; due to the meshing of the second transmission gear 740 and the first transmission gear 830, the first transmission gear 830 and the ring plate 5 The inner gear ring of 10 is engaged, so that the ring plate 510, the stirring rod 520 and the stirring blade 521 rotate synchronously and the rotation direction is opposite to the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft 710; at this time, the stirring rod 520 and the stirring blade 521 stir the extract in the extract mixing tank 100 and move the extract on the periphery toward the middle of the extract mixing tank 100. At the same time, the rotation of the connecting main shaft 710 drives the auger blade 720 to rotate, and the extract at the bottom of the extract mixing tank 100 is lifted to the top of the extract mixing tank 100 through the lifting cylinder 600;

[0077] S3. Turn off the motor 200 and start the hydraulic lifting rod 300, so that the L-shaped transmission rod 220 passes through the first transmission slot 760 and the second transmission slot 860 at the same time, and then start the motor 200 again. The motor 200 drives the connecting main shaft 710 and the circular bottom plate 810 to rotate as a whole; due to the limitation of the L-shaped transmission rod 220, the first transmission gear 830 does not rotate at this time and will engage with the inner gear ring of the ring plate 510 to limit the position, so that the ring plate 510, the stirring rod 520 and the stirring blade 521 rotate synchronously and the rotation direction is the same as the rotation direction of the connecting main shaft 710; after uniform stirring, a mixed extract is obtained, the mixed extract is taken out, and then the mixed extract is prepared in another extract mixing tank 100;

[0078] S4. While another extract mixing tank 100 is preparing a mixed extract, the previous extract mixing tank 100 is cleaned, water is added to the extract mixing tank 100, and then the water is heated to 60-80° C. by the heating plate 140 and allowed to stand. When the other extract mixing tank 100 also prepares a mixed extract and takes it out, a closed valve 930 and a water pump 920 are started to pump the water from the previous extract mixing tank 100 into the other extract mixing tank 100, and then the corresponding closed valve 930 and the water pump 920 are closed and allowed to stand. The previous extract mixing tank 100 is continued to prepare a mixed extract, and the cycle is repeated, and the water is circulated and cleaned by two water pumps 920 with different pumping directions.

[0079] S5. Concentrate the prepared mixed extract into a thick paste, and then boil it into a paste.

[0080] The present invention performs water-adding micro-boiling extraction on Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Quercus officinale. Since the polysaccharides and amino acids in Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Quercus officinale have good solubility in water, the active ingredients in Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Quercus officinale are more easily and quickly extracted, and the polysaccharides and amino acids in Radix Codonopsis pilosulae and Radix Quercus officinale have the effects of enhancing immunity and resisting fatigue. The present invention performs ethanol reflux extraction on Radix Gastrodiae and Ganoderma lucidum. Since the active ingredients such as gastrodin in Radix Gastrodiae and the polysaccharides and triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum also have good solubility in ethanol, the active ingredients in Radix Gastrodiae and Ganoderma lucidum are more easily and quickly extracted, and the active ingredients such as gastrodin in Radix Gastrodiae have the effects of calming the nerves and improving headaches, and the ingredients such as Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides and triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum have the effects of enhancing immunity and resisting fatigue. The prepared extracts are then mixed evenly, concentrated, and boiled into a paste. The obtained traditional Chinese medicine composition has the effects of conditioning the body, enhancing immunity, improving sleep quality, relieving stress, and the like.

[0081] Furthermore, the weight ratio of the added Codonopsis pilosula, Gastrodia elata, Quercus officinale and Ganoderma lucidum is 80-120 parts: 40-60 parts: 40-60 parts, 20-30 parts; for example, the ratio can be 100 parts: 50 parts: 50 parts: 25 parts.

The three liquids are combined and left to stand in the storage tank for 10 hours; the extraction methods are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0084] In S5, honey or maltitol solution (sugar-free type) can be added after the thick paste is made, and the mixture is boiled at 120-140°C for 2 hours. After removing the floating foam, the mixture is boiled into a paste to improve the taste. The paste is filtered through a 200-mesh sieve while it is hot.
