It is also convenient for storage and transportation. Sorted medicinal materials are easier to package and store, which can reduce losses during transportation.

[0003] Existing technologies have also proposed some solutions, such as sorting Chinese herbal medicines through color sorters. The color sorter is a high-tech device that uses photoelectric detection technology to identify the color and shape of materials, thereby achieving automated sorting.

[0004] The color sorter in the prior art uses a camera to take pictures of the Chinese medicine to be sorted, and then sends the electrical signal to a microcomputer for processing, and then controls the nozzle to blow away the unqualified Chinese medicine through airflow. However, during the sorting process, only qualified and unqualified Chinese medicines can be sorted out, and it is impossible to further sort the Chinese medicines, that is, to sort out those with good appearance and those with average appearance.

[0005] To this end, the present invention provides a traditional Chinese medicine sorting device. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art, at least one technical problem raised in the background technology is solved.

First, the user needs to put the Chinese medicine to be sorted into the feeding assembly, and the feeding assembly will send the medicinal materials one by one to the surface of the guide plate. Since the guide plate is inclined, the medicinal materials will slide along the guide plate to the bottom of the support frame. When the medicinal materials are separated from the guide plate from the bottom of the guide plate, the camera assembly in the containing box will shoot the medicinal materials in the air, and transmit the electrical signal generated after shooting to the external microcomputer, which will be processed by the external microcomputer to determine whether the quality of the medicinal materials is excellent, good or unqualified, and then control the jet seats and jet tubes in the containing boxes on both sides to spray the medicinal materials, so that the medicinal materials are respectively introduced into the same group of guide tubes but in different positions, so as to realize further sorting of medicinal materials of different qualities, so that not only unqualified medicinal materials can be picked out, but also medicinal materials with better appearance can be sorted out from ordinary medicinal materials, so as to facilitate users to carry out different processing or sales strategies.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the lower hopper 10 is internally rotatably connected with a rotating rod 19; the rotating rod 19 is driven by an external motor; a plurality of uniformly arranged stirring plates 20 are fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 19; during operation, after the medicinal materials are introduced into the lower hopper 10, the external motor will drive the rotating rod 19 to rotate, and the rotating rod 19 will drive the stirring plates 20 on its surface to rotate together, and the stirring plates 20 will stir the medicinal materials in the lower hopper 10, so as to avoid the herbs being squeezed together, causing the medicinal materials at the bottom to be squeezed tightly under the action of the gravity of the medicinal materials at the top, thereby causing the medicinal materials to be stuck at the bottom of the extension tube 12 and unable to be brought out of the extension tube 12 by the vibrating guide plate 2.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the bottom surface of the support frame 1 is provided with sockets 21 at both sides; the bottom of the support frame 1 is fixedly connected with a bottom plate 22; the top surface of the bottom plate 22 is rotatably connected with a plurality of evenly arranged rotating rollers 23; the top surface of the rotating roller 23 is provided with a plurality of evenly arranged receiving boxes 24; the plurality of receiving boxes 24 correspond one by one to the material distribution pipe 11; during operation, before sorting the traditional Chinese medicine, the user needs to place the receiving box 24 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22, and align the receiving box 24 with each diversion pipe 9, and then the user turns on the embodiment of the present invention, and sorts the medicinal materials, and introduces the medicinal materials of different qualities into the diversion pipe 9, and then introduces them into each receiving box 24 from the diversion pipe 9, so as to realize the classified storage of the medicinal materials.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a mounting seat 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 1; a barrel cam 26 is rotatably connected to the top surface of the mounting seat 25, and the barrel cam 26 is driven by a servo motor; a moving seat 27 is slidably connected in the groove on the surface of the barrel cam 26; a connecting component is installed at one end of the moving seat 27 away from the barrel cam 26; the connecting component is used to connect the moving seat 27 with the receiving box 24; when working, when the shunt pipe 9 introduces the medicinal materials into each receiving box 24, the barrel cam 26 on the top surface of the mounting seat 25 will The servo motor drives the rotating barrel cam 26 to drive the moving seat 27 in the groove on its surface to reciprocate along the axis of the barrel cam 26, and then the reciprocating moving seat 27 drives the connecting assembly, the receiving plate and the receiving box 24 to reciprocate together. Due to the reciprocating motion of the receiving box 24 at the bottom of the shunt pipe 9, the medicinal materials flowing out of the shunt pipe 9 can be more evenly spread inside the receiving box 24, instead of all concentrated in the middle of the receiving box 24, so that the receiving box 24 can accommodate more medicinal materials.

[0038] like Figure 1, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the bottom plate 22 is rotated with a rotating column 28 at one end away from the mounting seat 25; the rotating column 28 is driven by a servo motor; a pair of symmetrically arranged arc plates 29 are fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating column 28; a plurality of springs 30 are fixedly connected to the surface of one side of the mounting seat 25 close to the rotating column 28; and a push plate 31 is fixedly connected to one end of the spring 30 away from the mounting seat 25; during operation, when the connecting seat 33 drives the receiving box 24 to make a reciprocating motion, the rotating column 28 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22 will also rotate synchronously, and the arc plate 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 will squeeze the receiving box 24, so that the receiving box 24 moves toward the direction of the mounting plate, thereby squeezing the push plate 31 and compressing the spring 30, and when the arc plate 29 no longer squeezes the receiving box 24, the spring 30 recovers and pushes the push plate 31 to squeeze the receiving box 24, thereby causing the receiving box 24 to swing back and forth, further making the medicinal materials in the receiving box 24 more evenly laid.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the connecting assembly includes a transverse plate 32; the transverse plate 32 is fixedly connected to the moving seat 27, and the moving seat 27 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the transverse plate 32; the two ends of the transverse plate 32 are provided with connecting seats 33; the surface of the connecting seat 33 is slidably connected with a baffle 34; the end of the baffle 34 close to the mounting seat 25 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 35; when working, when the user needs the connecting seat 33 to drive the receiving box 24 to move, the user needs to push the connecting rod 35, and then the connecting plate 17 pushes the baffle 34, so that the baffle 34 slides along the connecting seat 33, and then the two baffles 34 clamp the receiving box 24 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22, so that The connecting seat 33 can drive the receiving box 24 to do reciprocating motion. When the user needs to take the receiving box 24 out of the bottom of the support frame 1, the user needs to close the rotating column 28 and make the arc plate 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 no longer squeeze the receiving box 24. Instead, the surface of the rotating column 28 directly contacts the receiving box 24. At this time, the position of the receiving box 24 is exactly at the socket 21. The user can push one side of the receiving box 24 from the socket 21. At this time, the rotating roller 23 on the bottom surface will rotate, thereby reducing the friction of the receiving box 24 when it moves, making it convenient for the user to take the receiving box 24 out of the bottom of the support frame 1.

At this time, the user can pull out multiple receiving boxes 24 together from one side, thereby facilitating the user's unloading operation.

[0041] During operation, when sorting Chinese medicine, the embodiment of the present invention can be used. First, the user needs to put the Chinese medicine to be sorted into the feeding assembly, and the feeding assembly will feed the medicinal materials one by one to the surface of the guide plate 2. Since the guide plate 2 is arranged at an angle, the medicinal materials will slide along the guide plate 2 to the bottom of the support frame 1. When the medicinal materials are separated from the guide plate 2 from the bottom of the guide plate 2, the camera assembly 6 in the receiving box 3 will shoot the medicinal materials in the air, and transmit the electrical signal generated after shooting to the external microcomputer, which will be processed by the external microcomputer to determine whether the quality of the medicinal materials is excellent, good or unqualified, and then control the jet seats 4 and the jet tubes 5 in the receiving boxes 3 on both sides to spray the medicinal materials, so that the medicinal materials are respectively introduced into the same group of guide tubes 7 but in different positions, so as to further sort the medicinal materials of different qualities, so that not only the unqualified medicinal materials can be picked out, but also the medicinal materials with better appearance can be sorted out from the ordinary medicinal materials, so as to facilitate the user to carry out different processing or sales strategies.

[0042] When the jet tube 5 sprays the medicinal materials toward the guide tubes 7 at different positions, the guide bucket 8 at the top of the guide tube 7 can expand the receiving area of ​​the guide tube 7 to prevent the medicinal materials from falling outside the guide tube 7 and causing waste of the medicinal materials. At the same time, the diversion tube 9 at the bottom of the guide tube 7 can also separate the medicinal materials of different qualities to facilitate the user to collect them separately, avoiding the mixing of the sorted medicinal materials due to the guide tubes 7 being too close.

[0043] When it is necessary to load medicinal materials to be sorted, the user needs to pour the medicinal materials into the lower hopper 10 on the top of the support frame 1, and then the medicinal materials fall into the distribution tube 11 under the guidance of the lower hopper 10, and then fall into the extension tube 12 from the distribution tube 11, and the counterweight falls on the feeding plate 14. At the same time, the vibrator 13 drives the feeding plate 14 to vibrate, so that the medicinal materials move forward along the feeding plate 14, and the user can adjust the position of the extension tube 12 through the fixed component, so that the distance between the extension tube 12 and the feeding plate 14 can only allow a single medicinal material to pass through, thereby avoiding the stacking of medicinal materials, which causes multiple medicinal materials to pass through the camera component 6 at the same time, thereby affecting the accuracy of sorting.

[0044] When the user needs to adjust the distance between the extension tube 12 and the guide plate 2, the user needs to rotate the handle 18, and the handle 18 drives the multiple threaded rods 16 to rotate simultaneously through the gear set and the chain, and then the rotating threaded rods 16 drive the connecting plate 17 to move, and finally the connecting plate 17 drives the extension tube 12 to slide on the surface of the distribution tube 11, so as to achieve the function of synchronously adjusting the distance between the multiple extension tubes 12 and the guide plate 2, thereby avoiding the user's manual adjustment one by one, thereby reducing the user's operating difficulty.

[0045] When the medicinal materials are introduced into the lower hopper 10, the external motor will drive the rotating rod 19 to rotate, and the rotating rod 19 will drive the stirring plate 20 on its surface to rotate together, and the stirring plate 20 will stir the medicinal materials in the lower hopper 10, so as to avoid the herbs being squeezed together, causing the medicinal materials at the bottom to be squeezed tightly under the action of the gravity of the medicinal materials at the top, thereby causing the medicinal materials to be stuck at the bottom of the extension tube 12 and unable to be taken out of the extension tube 12 by the vibrating guide plate 2.

[0046] Before sorting the Chinese medicine, the user needs to place the receiving box 24 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22 and align the receiving box 24 with each diversion tube 9. Then the user opens the embodiment of the present invention and sorts the medicinal materials, introduces the medicinal materials of different qualities into the diversion tube 9, and then introduces them into each receiving box 24 through the diversion tube 9, so as to realize the classified storage of the medicinal materials.

[0047] In the process of the diverter pipe 9 guiding the medicinal materials into each receiving box 24, the barrel cam 26 on the top surface of the mounting seat 25 will rotate under the drive of the servo motor, and the rotating barrel cam 26 will drive the moving seat 27 in the groove on its surface to reciprocate along the axis of the barrel cam 26, and then the reciprocating moving seat 27 will drive the connecting assembly, the receiving plate and the receiving box 24 to reciprocate together. Due to the reciprocating motion of the receiving box 24 at the bottom of the diverter pipe 9, the medicinal materials flowing out of the diverter pipe 9 can be more evenly spread inside the receiving box 24, instead of all concentrated in the middle of the receiving box 24, so that the receiving box 24 can accommodate more medicinal materials.

[0048] When the connecting seat 33 drives the receiving box 24 to make reciprocating motion, the rotating column 28 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22 will also rotate synchronously, and the arc plate 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 will squeeze the receiving box 24, so that the receiving box 24 moves toward the mounting plate, thereby squeezing the push plate 31 and compressing the spring 30. When the arc plate 29 no longer squeezes the receiving box 24, the spring 30 recovers and pushes the push plate 31 to squeeze the receiving box 24, thereby making the receiving box 24 swing back and forth, further making the medicinal materials in the receiving box 24 more evenly laid.

[0049] When the user needs the connecting seat 33 to drive the receiving box 24 to move, the user needs to push the connecting rod 35, and then the connecting plate 17 pushes the baffle 34, so that the baffle 34 slides along the connecting seat 33, and then the two baffles 34 clamp the receiving box 24 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22, so that the connecting seat 33 can drive the receiving box 24 to reciprocate. When the user needs to take the receiving box 24 out of the bottom of the support frame 1, the user needs to close the rotating column 28, and make the arc plate 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 no longer squeeze the receiving box 24, but the surface of the rotating column 28 directly contacts the receiving box 24. At this time, the position of the receiving box 24 is exactly at the socket 21, and the user can push one side of the receiving box 24 from the socket 21. At this time, the rotating roller 23 on the bottom surface will rotate, thereby reducing the friction when the receiving box 24 moves, making it convenient for the user to take the receiving box 24 out of the bottom of the support frame 1.

[0050] When the user pushes the receiving box 24 into the socket 21, the magnet block 36 on the surface of the receiving box 24 will be inserted into the slot 37 on the surface of the receiving box 24 and absorb the metal plate 38 in the slot 37, thereby realizing the end-to-end connection of the receiving boxes 24 in the same row. At this time, the user can pull out multiple receiving boxes 24 together from one side, thereby facilitating the user's unloading operation.
