[0035] Specifically, in the initial state, the electric push rod 5 is in an extended state, and the storage frame 66 is located at the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2. The staff can directly place the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage frame 66. After the loading is completed, the staff can shorten the electric push rod 5 so that the storage frame 66 enters the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2. During the shortening of the electric push rod 5, the electric push rod 5 drives the sliding plate 63 through the fixed plate 61 and then drives the connecting plate 65 to descend, so that the storage frame 66 and the Chinese medicinal materials are lowered into the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 to complete the cleaning of the Chinese medicinal materials. It should be noted that the sliding plate 63 is slidably installed on the inner side wall of the guide groove 62, and the two groups of support springs 64 are respectively fixedly installed between the two sliding plates 63 and the inner side wall of the guide groove 62 and are both arranged along the first direction X; through the above arrangement, during the shortening of the electric push rod 5 to drive the connecting plate 65 and the storage frame 66 to descend, under the elastic force of the support spring 64, the placement mechanism can cooperate with the transmission mechanism to realize the vibration of the storage frame 66 along the first direction X, thereby placing the Chinese medicinal materials flat.

[0036] Furthermore, the storage frame 66 is a mesh structure, and the side wall of the sliding plate 63 and the inner side wall of the guide groove 62 are in contact with each other.

[0037] Specifically, the storage frame 66 has a mesh structure, which facilitates the contact between the Chinese medicinal materials and the cleaning liquid in the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 , and the sliding plate 63 can stably slide in the guide groove 62 .

[0038] Please continue to combine Figure 1-3For reference, in an exemplary embodiment, the transmission mechanism may include: a fixed rack 71, a mounting plate 72, a one-way bearing 73, a transmission gear 74, a fixing frame 75, a transmission sleeve 76, and a driving bevel gear 77; wherein the fixed rack 71 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of one of the two connecting plates 65; the mounting plate 72 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the cleaning seat 1; the one-way bearing 73 is rotatably mounted on the end of the mounting plate 72 away from the cleaning seat 1; the transmission gear 74 is sleeved on the outer wall of the one-way bearing 73, and the transmission gear 74 is meshed with the fixed rack 71; the fixing frame 75 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the cleaning seat 1; the transmission sleeve 76 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the fixing frame 75, and one end of the transmission sleeve 76 is fixedly connected to the transmission gear 74; the driving bevel gear 77 is fixedly mounted on the end of the transmission sleeve 76 away from the transmission gear 74.

[0039] Specifically, during the shortening of the electric push rod 5, this direction is the locking direction of the one-way bearing 73, so the fixed rack 71 cannot drive the transmission gear 74 to rotate, and when the tooth tip on the fixed rack 71 contacts the tooth root on the transmission gear 74, the support spring 64 is in a contracted state, and when the tooth tip on the fixed rack 71 contacts the tooth tip on the transmission gear 74, the support spring 64 is in an extended state, and then the sliding plate 63, the connecting plate 65 and the storage frame 66 as a whole can reciprocate along the guide groove 62 (first direction X) under the elastic force of the support spring 64, so that the storage frame 66 vibrates, and at this time, the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage frame 66 are placed flat under the action of the vibration force; and when the electric push rod 5 is extended, this direction is the free state of the one-way bearing 73, so under the action of the fixed rack 71, the transmission gear 74 can rotate, and can drive the transmission sleeve 76 and the driving bevel gear 77 to rotate synchronously, so that the storage frame 66 can be driven to move upward out of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 while providing a driving force for the filter assembly.

[0040] Please combine Figure 5 , Figure 6For reference, in an exemplary embodiment, the filter assembly may include: a filter sleeve 91, a transmission rod 92, two connecting rods 93, two cleaning plates 94, and a driven bevel gear 95; wherein the filter sleeve 91 is fixedly mounted on the inner bottom wall of the filter barrel 8; the transmission rod 92 is arranged on the top surface of the filter barrel 8, and the transmission rod 92 passes through the top surface of the filter barrel 8; the two connecting rods 93 are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the transmission rod 92 located on the inner side of the filter barrel 8; the two cleaning plates 94 are respectively fixedly mounted on one end of the two connecting rods 93 away from the transmission rod 92; the driven bevel gear 95 is fixedly mounted on the transmission rod 9 2, and the driven bevel gear 95 is meshed with the driving bevel gear 77; the filtering assembly may also include: a sewage pipe 96, a connecting pipe 97, a guide port 98, and a dirt collecting chamber 99; wherein the sewage pipe 96 is arranged on the top surface of the filtering barrel 8, and the two ends of the sewage pipe 96 are respectively connected to the filtering barrel 8 and the ultrasonic cleaning pool 2; the connecting pipe 97 is arranged on the bottom surface of the filtering barrel 8, and the two ends of the connecting pipe 97 are respectively connected to the filtering barrel 8 and the water storage chamber 3; the guide port 98 is opened on the inner bottom wall of the filtering barrel 8; the dirt collecting chamber 99 is opened at the bottom end of the filtering barrel 8, and the dirt collecting chamber 99 is connected to the guide port 98.

[0041] Specifically, when the electric push rod 5 is extended to drive the storage frame 66 to move upward out of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2, since the driven bevel gear 95 is fixedly installed on the top of the transmission rod 92, and the driven bevel gear 95 is meshed with the driving bevel gear 77, the rotation of the driving bevel gear 77 can drive the driven bevel gear 95 to rotate synchronously. When the driven bevel gear 95 rotates, it can drive the transmission rod 92, the connecting rod 93 and the cleaning plate 94 to rotate. When the cleaning plate 94 rotates, the holes on the filter sleeve 91 can be cleaned, and the cleaned dirt enters the dirt collecting chamber 99 through the guide port 98 for storage, so that the staff can concentrate on cleaning. At the same time, the water pump inside the water storage chamber 3 is turned on (not shown in the figure), so that the sewage in the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 can enter the filter barrel 8 through the sewage pipe 96 and be filtered through the filter sleeve 91, and the filtered water can enter the water storage chamber 3 through the connecting pipe 97 for standby.

[0042] Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of the material guide port 98 is a trapezoid, and bristles are provided on the side of the cleaning plate 94 opposite to the filter sleeve 91; the trapezoidal design of the material guide port 98 can effectively reduce the reverse overflow of dirt in the dirt collecting chamber 99, and at the same time, the bristles on the cleaning plate 94 can quickly clean the filter sleeve 91.

[0043] Please combine Figure 1 , Figure 4For reference, the flushing mechanism may include: a circulating water pump 101, a frame 102, a plurality of high-pressure nozzles 103, a water supply pipe 104, and a water extraction pipe 105; wherein the circulating water pump 101 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the cleaning seat 1; the frame 102 is fixedly mounted on the side edge of the top surface of the cleaning seat 1; a plurality of high-pressure nozzles 103 are distributed in a linear array and fixedly mounted on the side of the frame 102; the water supply pipe 104 is arranged on the top of the circulating water pump 101, and the two ends of the water supply pipe 104 are respectively connected to the circulating water pump 101 and the high-pressure nozzle 103; the water extraction pipe 105 is arranged at the bottom end of the circulating water pump 101, and the two ends of the water extraction pipe 105 are respectively connected to the circulating water pump 101 and the water storage chamber 3.

[0044] Specifically, during the extension process of the electric push rod 5, the circulating water pump 101 is turned on, so that the water in the water storage chamber 3 can enter the high-pressure nozzle 103 through the water supply pipe 104, and is sprayed out through the high-pressure nozzle 103 to perform secondary flushing on the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage frame 66. At the same time, the flushing liquid can enter the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 for ultrasonic cleaning.

[0045] Furthermore, the high-pressure nozzle 103 is arranged to be tilted downward, ensuring that the high-pressure nozzle 103 can be aimed at the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage frame 66 .

[0046] On the basis of the above embodiment, the embodiment of the present application further provides a method for cleaning Chinese medicinal materials, which is executed by the console 4 and may include the following steps: Step 1: Control the electric push rod 5 to extend, drive the placement mechanism to move upward along the second direction to the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2, and place the Chinese medicinal materials to be cleaned on the placement mechanism.

[0047] Specifically, the electric push rod 5 is in an extended state, the storage frame 66 is located at the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2, and the staff directly places the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage frame 66. After completing the loading, the staff operates the electric push rod 5 to shorten it, so that the storage frame 66 and the Chinese medicinal materials enter the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2.

[0048] Step 2: Control the electric push rod 5 to shorten, and drive the placement mechanism to move downward in the second direction into the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2, wherein the transmission mechanism releases the telescopic freedom of the placement mechanism to make the placement mechanism vibrate in the first direction.

[0049] Specifically, during the shortening of the electric push rod 5, the placement mechanism is driven to move downward in the second direction into the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2. During this process, due to the locking direction of the one-way bearing 73, the fixed rack 71 cannot drive the transmission gear 74 to rotate. When the tooth tip on the fixed rack 71 contacts the tooth root on the transmission gear 74, the support spring 64 is in a contracted state. When the tooth tip on the fixed rack 71 contacts the tooth tip on the transmission gear 74, the support spring 64 is in an extended state. Then, the sliding plate 63, the connecting plate 65 and the storage frame 66 as a whole can slide back and forth along the guide groove 62 (first direction X) under the elastic force of the support spring 64, thereby realizing the vibration of the storage frame 66 and placing the Chinese medicinal materials flat.

[0050] Step 3: Start the ultrasonic cleaning pool 2 to clean the Chinese medicinal materials to be cleaned.

[0051] Specifically, the ultrasonic cleaning pool 2 is started through the control console 4 to perform ultrasonic cleaning on the Chinese medicinal materials; wherein, for different types of Chinese medicinal materials, the size of the ultrasonic frequency can be adjusted through the control console 4 to adapt to the cleaning of different types of medicinal materials, thereby improving the applicability of the Chinese medicinal materials cleaning device. The adjustment of the size of the ultrasonic frequency refers to the existing technology and will not be repeated here.

[0052] Step 4, control the electric push rod 5 to extend, drive the placement mechanism to move upward along the second direction to the top of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2, wherein the transmission mechanism locks the telescopic freedom of the placement mechanism and provides driving force for the filtering component, starts the water pump in the water storage chamber 3, and draws the sewage in the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 into the filter barrel 8. After being filtered by the filtering component, the filtered cleaning liquid is returned to the water storage chamber 3 for standby use.

[0053] Specifically, after cleaning is completed, the electric push rod 5 extends, driving the storage frame 66 to move upward out of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2. At this time, the one-way bearing 73 is in a free state, allowing the fixed rack 71 to drive the transmission gear 74 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission gear 74 drives the transmission sleeve 76 and the driving bevel gear 77 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the driven bevel gear 95, the transmission rod 92, the connecting rod 93 and the cleaning plate 94 to rotate. The cleaning plate 94 cleans the holes on the filter sleeve 91, and the dirt enters the dirt collecting chamber 99 through the guide port 98. The water pump in the water storage chamber 3 is started, and the sewage in the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 enters the filter barrel 8 through the sewage pipe 96. After being filtered by the filter sleeve 91, the clean water flows back to the water storage chamber 3 through the connecting pipe 97 for standby use.

[0054] Step 5: Control the flushing mechanism to re-rinse the washed Chinese medicinal materials through the water outlet, and the washing liquid after flushing flows back to the ultrasonic cleaning tank 2 to prepare for the next round of ultrasonic cleaning.

[0055] Specifically, during the extension of the electric push rod 5, the circulating water pump 101 is turned on, and the water in the water storage chamber 3 enters the high-pressure nozzle 103 through the water supply pipe 104 to perform high-pressure washing on the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage frame 66. The liquid after washing flows back to the ultrasonic cleaning pool 2, preparing for the next round of ultrasonic cleaning, thereby realizing the recycling of water resources.

[0056] The Chinese medicinal materials cleaning device and method proposed in the embodiment of the present application cleans the Chinese medicinal materials through an ultrasonic cleaning pool 2, which can deeply remove dirt and impurities on the surface of the Chinese medicinal materials. At the same time, combined with the vibration leveling function, it ensures that the Chinese medicinal materials are evenly placed during the cleaning process, thereby improving the cleaning effect. The entire cleaning process is automated and can include steps such as loading, ultrasonic cleaning, vibration leveling, taking out, sewage filtration, high-pressure washing, and unloading, which greatly improves work efficiency and reduces manual operations.

[0057] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present application specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
