Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a Chinese medicine decoction piece crushing mechanism, in particular to a device installed in an intelligent Chinese medicine cabinet to crush the Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Art

[0002] As the treasure of Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine has played a huge role in the health of the Chinese people and the prosperity of the nation over its thousands of years of history. However, the traditional Chinese medicine industry itself still has room for improvement and enhancement in many aspects.

[0003] The processing of medicinal materials is divided into three steps: cleaning, cutting and processing. Among them, cutting mainly uses five types of tools: splitting, slicing, pounding, rubbing and planing, which occupies an important position in the cutting process.

[0004] The existing cutting and processing of vine-based Chinese medicinal materials mainly uses traditional Chinese medicine guillotines, scissors, etc., which have the disadvantages of manual operation, high labor intensity, low production efficiency and difficulty in automation.

[0021] Figure 1 Figure 2 Shown,

[0022] A convertible discharging platform mechanism with crushing, characterized in that it is composed of a conversion cutting device and a cutting assembly; the conversion cutting device structure is as follows: a conversion motor 612 is installed on a horizontal plate of a fixed seat 613, a reversing gear 617 is installed on the conversion motor shaft extending downward from the horizontal plate, the vertical plate of the fixed seat 613 is respectively used to be fixed on the left and right plates of the unit medicine cabinet through a left fixed seat 609 and a right fixed seat 608, a common discharging touch switch 610 and a cutting discharging touch switch 611 are installed on the vertical plate of the fixed seat for controlling power off when the cutting assembly is driven by the conversion motor to move to the common discharging bin 606 or the cutting discharging bin 603 position, a slide rail 614 is installed between the left fixed seat and the right fixed seat, and two sliders 615 connected by a plate 616 are slidably matched and arranged on the slide rail 614;

[0023] The structure of the cutting assembly is as follows: the cutting motor is installed on the right side of the cutting discharge bin via the cutting motor seat 602, the cutting motor 601 is connected to the reducer, the reducer output shaft is connected to the cutting shaft 605 via a coupling, the cutting shaft extends into the cutting discharge bin 603 and is mounted on the bearing 618, a plurality of cutting blades 604 are installed on the cutting shaft in a spiral form, the ordinary discharge bin 606 is fixedly connected to the left side of the cutting discharge bin, and the rack 607 arranged horizontally is fixed to the front of the cutting discharge bin and the ordinary discharge bin; the cutting assembly is fixed on the two sliders 615 mentioned above, and the rack of the cutting assembly is meshed with the reversing gear for transmission.

[0024] (See Figure 8 Fig. 9 ).

[0025] When the medicinal material slices are less than 8g, the conversion motor drives the ordinary discharge bin to move to the feed port of the crushing mechanism through the reversing gear, and each medicinal material slice less than 8g is directly discharged through the ordinary discharge bin; when the medicinal material slices are greater than or equal to 8g, the conversion motor drives the cutting discharge bin to move to the feed port of the crushing mechanism through the reversing gear, and each medicinal material slice greater than or equal to 8g is cut into small pieces by the cutting component and then discharged through the cutting discharge bin to ensure that the discharge accuracy of each medicinal material slice is not more than 10g.

[0026] 1. The conversion cutting device consists of a conversion motor, a conversion motor fixing seat, a conversion gear, a common discharge port touch switch, a cutting discharge port touch switch, a common discharge port, a cutting tool seat, a cutting blade, a cutting tool shaft, a conversion rack, a cutting motor, a cutting motor seat, etc.

[0027] 2. Take medicine:

[0028] Applicable to: large pieces or large particles of medicinal materials.

[0029] 3. Purpose: To ensure the accuracy and speed of drug dispensing (for example, when 10g of medicinal material slices are needed, if crushing is not used, the accuracy of drug dispensing is related to the weight of a single piece of medicinal material slice. The greater the weight of a single piece of medicinal material slice, the greater the error).

[0030] 4. Process: Before the required amount of medicinal material slices reaches 10g (for example, 10g is required in total), the medicine discharged by the medicine discharging mechanism is connected to the common discharge port, and the medicinal material slices directly fall into the weighing pan in the metering, pushing and flipping device. When it is about to reach 10g (the rough medicine metering setting value, for example, 8g), that is, the weight of the medicinal material slices in the medicine pan in the weighing pan is greater than or equal to 8g, the control panel controls the conversion cutting device to convert the cutting discharge port to the position corresponding to the upper discharge and medicine taking device. At this time, the medicine discharged by the medicine discharging mechanism is connected to the cutting discharge port, the cutting motor is activated, and the motor drives the blade to rotate. The medicine discharged by the medicine discharging mechanism falls into the cutting discharge port, and is cut by the cutting blade and the cutting seat to break the large pieces or large particles of medicinal material slices into small particles until the medicinal material in the weighing pan in the metering, pushing and flipping device reaches the required weight (10g).

[0031] Types of medicinal materials applicable to this institution:

[0032] It is suitable for medicinal materials with large single-piece weight, where the single-piece weight exceeds 1g.

[0033] Purpose: To ensure the accuracy and speed of drug dispensing.

[0034] For example, the weight of a piece of medicinal material is about 3g. If 10g of this piece is needed, the weight of the taken out piece is generally between 9g and 12g without crushing. It is difficult to meet the requirements of drug extraction accuracy. Without crushing, the drug extraction accuracy is related to the weight of a single piece of medicinal material. The heavier the weight of a single piece of medicinal material, the greater the error.

[0035] Control process:

[0036] Take a piece of medicinal material with a basic weight of about 3g as an example. Because its single piece weight is basically about 3g, the refined drug value of this medicinal material is set to 3g or a multiple of 3g. Now, for this medicinal material, we set its refined drug value to 3g. There is a prescription that requires 10g of this medicinal material. When the unit cabinet control board receives the instruction from the host computer to output 10g of medicine, the unit cabinet control board calculates the rough drug value to be 7g (10g-3g=7g).

[0037] Rough medicine discharging: The unit cabinet control board controls the conversion motor of the discharging platform mechanism with a convertible belt crusher, and drives the ordinary discharging bin to move to the discharging port position of the upper discharging medicine dispensing device through the reversing gear. The unit cabinet control board controls the upper discharging medicine dispensing device to take out the medicinal materials in the hopper and enter the metering flipping and pushing device. When the weight of the taken out medicinal materials reaches or exceeds 7g, the unit cabinet control board controls the upper discharging medicine dispensing device to immediately stop taking out the medicinal materials. So far, the rough medicine discharging work is completed.

[0038] Fine medicine discharging: When the weight of the taken out medicinal slices reaches or exceeds 7g, the unit cabinet control board controls the upper discharging and taking medicine device to stop taking out medicinal slices, and then the unit cabinet control board controls the conversion motor of the convertible discharging platform mechanism with crushing to drive the cutting discharging bin to move to the discharging port position of the upper discharging and taking medicine device through the reversing gear. The unit cabinet control board controls the upper discharging and taking medicine device to decelerate and take out medicinal slices, and the medicinal slices enter the cutting discharging bin. The cutting motor of the convertible discharging platform mechanism with crushing drives the cutting blade to rotate through the reducer and the cutting knife shaft, and the medicinal slices entering the cutting discharging bin are crushed. The crushed medicinal slices enter the metering flipping and pushing device. When the weight of the medicinal slices in the metering flipping and pushing device reaches or exceeds 10g, the unit cabinet control board controls the upper discharging and taking medicine device and the cutting motor of the convertible discharging platform mechanism with crushing to immediately stop taking out medicinal slices. So far, the fine medicine discharging work is completed.
