Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of a Chinese medicine straw filter element, and in particular to a formula and a manufacturing method of a Chinese medicine straw filter element. Background Art

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine refers to natural medicines and their processed products used to prevent, diagnose and treat diseases under the guidance of traditional Chinese medical theory. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly includes herbal medicines, animal medicines and mineral medicines, among which herbal medicines are the most common.

[0003] Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history. Its theoretical basis includes the theory of yin and yang and the five elements, the theory of viscera and meridians, etc., and it emphasizes the holistic concept and dialectical treatment.

[0004] A straw filter is a filtering device used in drinking straws, usually made of food-grade materials, designed to filter impurities, particles or other undesirable ingredients from beverages.

[0005] This filter element is usually designed to be very small so that it can be installed at one end or in the middle of the straw without affecting the normal use of the straw.

[0006] In order to allow people to use straws with Chinese medicinal materials, the medicinal materials need to be steamed together with the filter element so that the medicinal materials adhere to the filter element. Therefore, a design scheme combining Chinese medicine and filter element is needed according to this type of situation to meet the requirement that Chinese medicine can be carried on the filter element. Summary of the invention

[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] A formula for a traditional Chinese medicine straw filter element comprises the following traditional Chinese medicine ingredients in proportion: 25 parts of honeysuckle, 20 parts of chrysanthemum, 17 parts of astragalus, 20 parts of quinquefolius, and 18 parts of loofah.

[0035] Other herbs that can remove heat, replenish blood and qi can also be included, including wolfberry, ginseng, codonopsis, etc. After adding other herbs, the basic herbal ratio is appropriately adjusted to make the ratio one hundred parts.

[0036] It should be further explained that the manufacturing method of the Chinese medicine straw filter element is:

[0037] Step 1: Dry the herbs. Dry the fresh herbs in the sun outdoors.

[0038] Step 2: Steaming medicinal materials can enhance efficacy, change medicinal properties, reduce toxicity, soften medicinal materials, kill enzymes and preserve glycosides, and clean medicinal materials. Steaming can make the active ingredients in medicinal materials more easily dissolve and improve their bioavailability. Some toxic or side-effect medicinal materials can reduce their toxicity by steaming. Steaming can make hard medicinal materials soft, making them easier to slice or further process.

[0039] Step 3: Air-dry the medicinal materials, by using a hot air blower to air-dry the steamed medicinal materials in a sterile room;

[0040] Step 4: Disinfection of medicinal materials. Ultraviolet disinfection can eliminate microorganisms on the surface, and irradiation disinfection can kill microorganisms inside, ensuring that the medicinal materials are disinfected in a dry condition;

[0041] The intensity and irradiation time of ultraviolet rays directly affect the disinfection effect. It is necessary to determine the appropriate ultraviolet intensity and irradiation time according to the specific type and characteristics of the medicinal materials to ensure effective killing of microorganisms without damaging the effective ingredients of the medicinal materials. When performing ultraviolet disinfection, the medicinal materials should be placed evenly in the disinfection area to avoid stacking or overlapping to ensure that the ultraviolet rays can evenly irradiate each part. At the same time, the placement of medicinal materials should facilitate air circulation to improve the disinfection effect. Ultraviolet rays may have a destructive effect on the effective ingredients of some medicinal materials. During the disinfection process, the temperature and humidity of the medicinal materials should be closely monitored to avoid damage to the medicinal materials caused by excessive temperature and humidity.

[0042] The effect of irradiation sterilization depends on the radiation dose. A dose that is too low may not effectively kill microorganisms, while a dose that is too high may have adverse effects on the product. Irradiation sterilization usually uses radioactive isotopes (such as cobalt-60, cesium-137) or electron beams produced by accelerators. Products should be properly packaged before irradiation sterilization to prevent contamination during the radiation process. Irradiation sterilization operators should wear appropriate radiation protective clothing and protective equipment to reduce the risk of radiation exposure. During the irradiation sterilization process, the radiation dose and the microbial indicators of the product should be monitored regularly to ensure the consistency of the disinfection effect and the safety of the product.

[0043] Step 5: Break the wall of medicinal materials into powder and mix it with the raw materials of environmentally friendly filter elements. Select the appropriate environmentally friendly plastic masterbatch of the filter element, then sterilize it and put it into the grinder for crushing. Break the wall of medicinal materials through the wall breaker and send them into the mixer for mixing;

[0044] Step 6: Produce the filter element by using the filter element mold and injection molding to produce the filter element to obtain a semi-finished filter element;

[0045] Step 7: Secondary steaming: steam the semi-finished filter element and powdered medicinal materials again to improve the adhesion effect of the medicinal materials;

[0046] Step 8: Semi-finished product drying: the medicinal materials after secondary steaming are finally processed by semi-finished product drying equipment in a sterile room to obtain finished products;

[0047] Step 9: Finished product shipment.

[0048] It should be further explained that the drying temperature of the medicinal materials in the third step does not exceed 50 degrees, and when drying, the drying time is 15 minutes and the rest time is 2 minutes.

[0049] It should be further explained that the intensity of ultraviolet radiation in the fourth step does not exceed 150 microwatts per square centimeter, and the time does not exceed 15 minutes.

[0050] It should be further explained that the irradiation intensity in the fourth step does not exceed 20,000 grays, and the irradiation time does not exceed 60 minutes.

[0052] It should be further explained that the semi-finished product drying in the eighth step specifically includes drying, soaking and secondary drying. The drying and secondary drying use the same drying equipment. A soaking tank is set up during the soaking process. The powder is mixed with pure water to form a soaking liquid. The semi-finished filter element after the first drying is placed in the soaking tank for soaking. Finally, it is dried twice to form a finished product.

[0053] It should be further explained that a liquid medicine spray nozzle is provided at the upper end of the interior of the semi-finished product drying equipment, and an interface for recovering the liquid medicine is provided at the lower end. During the drying process, auxiliary spraying of the liquid medicine can be performed, and the spilled liquid medicine can be recovered and reused through the liquid medicine recovery interface.

[0054] It should be further explained that the semi-finished product drying equipment uses a heater for drying, and at least two groups of heaters are provided to ensure drying efficiency.

[0055] It should be further explained that the single drying time of the semi-finished product drying equipment is 40 minutes, and during the drying process, it stops for 2 minutes and atomizes the liquid medicine through the liquid medicine spray nozzle. After the spraying is completed, the single drying process continues to improve the ability of the liquid medicine to adhere to the material.
