[0002] The sorting of traditional Chinese medicine is an important link in the processing of traditional Chinese medicine, which is mainly to ensure the quality of medicinal materials to meet the standards of pharmacopoeia, to facilitate the safety and effectiveness of medicinal materials, and to facilitate storage and transportation. The sorted medicinal materials are easier to package and store, thereby reducing the loss during transportation.

[0003] The prior art also provides some solutions, such as sorting Chinese herbal medicine by using a color sorter, wherein the color sorter is a high-tech equipment that uses photoelectric detection technology to identify the color and shape of materials to achieve automatic sorting.

[0004] The color sorter in the prior art shoots the traditional Chinese medicine to be sorted by using a camera, and then sends the electrical signal to a microcomputer for processing, and then controls the nozzle to blow away the unqualified traditional Chinese medicine by air flow. However, during the sorting process, only qualified and unqualified traditional Chinese medicine can be sorted out, and the traditional Chinese medicine cannot be further sorted, i.e., the traditional Chinese medicine with good appearance and the traditional Chinese medicine with general appearance cannot be sorted out.

[0005] Therefore, the present application provides a traditional Chinese medicine sorting device. SUMMARY

[0008] Preferably, the end of the guide pipe close to the guide plate is provided with three guide hoppers; the guide hoppers are fixedly connected to the pipe openings of the guide pipes in the same row; the end of the guide pipe away from the guide hopper is fixedly connected with a shunt pipe; when the gas injection pipe sprays the medicinal materials to the guide pipes in different positions, the guide hoppers at the top of the guide pipes can expand the receiving area of the guide pipes to avoid the medicinal materials falling outside the guide pipes and causing waste of the medicinal materials, and the shunt pipes at the bottom of the guide pipes can also separate the medicinal materials with different qualities to facilitate the user to collect them separately and avoid the sorted medicinal materials mixing together due to the guide pipes being too close.

[0009] Preferably, the feeding assembly comprises a lower hopper; the lower hopper is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame; the bottom surface of the lower hopper is fixedly connected with a plurality of uniformly arranged distribution pipes; the distribution pipes correspond to the guide plates one by one; the bottom of the distribution pipe is slidably connected with an extension pipe; a fixing assembly is installed between the extension pipe and the distribution pipe; a plurality of uniformly arranged vibrators are fixedly connected to the bottom of the distribution hopper inside the support frame, and the vibrators correspond to the distribution pipes one by one; the output end of the vibrator is fixedly connected with a feeding plate; during operation, when it is necessary to load the medicine materials to be sorted, the user needs to pour the medicine materials into the lower hopper at the top of the support frame, then the medicine materials fall into the distribution pipe under the guidance of the lower hopper, then fall into the extension pipe from the distribution pipe, and fall on the feeding plate again, at the same time, the vibrator drives the feeding plate to vibrate, so that the medicine materials advance along the feeding plate, and the user can adjust the position of the extension pipe through the fixing assembly, so that the distance between the extension pipe and the feeding plate can only allow a single medicine material to pass through, thereby avoiding the stacking of medicine materials, and causing multiple medicine materials to pass through the camera assembly at the same time, thereby affecting the accuracy of sorting.

[0010] Preferably, the fixing assembly comprises a support plate; the support plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the support frame; a plurality of uniformly arranged threaded rods are rotatably connected to the surface of the support plate, and the threaded rods correspond to the extension pipes one by one; the surface of the threaded rod is threadedly connected with a connecting plate; the surface of the connecting plate is fixedly connected with the extension pipe; one side of the support plate is rotatably connected with a handle, and the handle is connected with the threaded rods through a gear set and a chain; during operation, when the user needs to adjust the distance between the extension pipe and the guide plate, the user needs to rotate the handle, which drives the plurality of threaded rods to rotate at the same time through the gear set and the chain, then drives the connecting plate to move through the rotating threaded rods, and finally drives the extension pipe to slide on the surface of the distribution pipe through the connecting plate, so as to realize the synchronous adjustment of the distance between the plurality of extension pipes and the guide plate, thereby avoiding manual adjustment one by one by the user, and thereby reducing the operation difficulty of the user.

[0011] Preferably, a rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the lower hopper; the rotating rod is driven by an external motor; a plurality of uniformly arranged stirring plates are fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod; during operation, after the medicine materials are introduced into the lower hopper, the external motor drives the rotating rod to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring plates on the surface of the rotating rod to rotate, so that the medicine materials in the lower hopper are stirred by the stirring plates, thereby avoiding the pressing of the herbal medicines together, which causes the medicine materials at the bottom to be pressed tightly under the gravity of the medicine materials at the top, thereby causing the medicine materials to be stuck at the bottom of the extension pipe and unable to be taken out of the extension pipe by the vibrating guide plate.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom surface of the support frame has slots on both sides; a base plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame; multiple evenly arranged rotating rollers are rotatably connected to the top surface of the base plate; multiple evenly arranged receiving boxes are provided on the top surface of the rotating rollers; each of the receiving boxes corresponds to a distributing pipe; during operation, before sorting the Chinese medicine, the user needs to place the receiving box on the top surface of the base plate and align the receiving box with each distributing pipe, then the user activates the embodiment of the invention and sorts the medicinal materials, guiding the medicinal materials of different qualities into the distributing pipe, and then guiding them into each receiving box, thereby realizing the classified storage of medicinal materials.

Due to the reciprocating motion of the receiving box at the bottom of the diversion pipe, the medicinal materials flowing out of the diversion pipe can be spread more evenly inside the receiving box, instead of all being concentrated in the middle of the receiving box, so that the receiving box can hold more medicinal materials.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom plate has a rotating column at the end away from the mounting base; the rotating column is driven by a servo motor; a pair of symmetrically arranged arc-shaped plates are fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating column; a plurality of equally arranged springs are fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting base on the side near the rotating column; a push plate is fixedly connected to the end of the spring away from the mounting base; during operation, when the connecting base drives the receiving box to reciprocate, the rotating column on the top surface of the bottom plate will also rotate synchronously, and the arc-shaped plates on the surface of the rotating column will squeeze the receiving box, causing the receiving box to move towards the mounting plate, thereby squeezing the push plate and compressing the spring. When the arc-shaped plates no longer squeeze the receiving box, the springs recover and push the push plate to squeeze the receiving box, thereby causing the receiving box to sway back and forth, further making the medicinal materials in the receiving box more evenly spread.

[0016] Preferably, one side of the receiving box is fixedly connected with a magnet block; the surface of the side of the receiving box away from the magnet block is provided with a slot; the slot is matched with the magnet block; the bottom of the slot is fixedly connected with a metal plate, and the metal plate is made of magnetizable metal; during operation, when the user pushes the receiving box into the socket, the magnet block on the surface of one receiving box is inserted into the slot on the surface of the receiving box, and the metal plate in the slot is adsorbed, so as to realize the connection of the receiving boxes at the same row; at this time, the user can take out multiple receiving boxes together from one side, and then facilitate the unloading operation of the user.

[0032] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 the end of the guide pipe 7 close to the guide plate 2 is provided with three guide hoppers 8, the three guide hoppers 8 are respectively fixedly connected to the pipe openings of the guide pipes 7 in the same row, and the end of the guide pipe 7 away from the guide hopper 8 is fixedly connected with a shunt pipe 9, when the medicinal materials are sprayed to the guide pipes 7 in different positions by the gas jet pipe 5, the guide hoppers 8 at the top of the guide pipes 7 can expand the receiving area of the guide pipes 7, so as to avoid the waste of the medicinal materials falling outside the guide pipes 7, and the shunt pipe 9 at the bottom of the guide pipe 7 can also separate the medicinal materials with different qualities, so as to facilitate the user to collect the medicinal materials, and avoid the sorted medicinal materials from mixing together due to the guide pipes 7 being too close.

[0033] As shown inFigure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the feeding assembly includes a hopper 10; the hopper 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1; a plurality of evenly arranged distribution pipes 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the hopper 10; each distribution pipe 11 corresponds to a guide plate 2; each distribution pipe 11 has an extension pipe 12 slidably connected to its bottom; a fixing assembly is installed between the extension pipe 12 and the distribution pipe 11; a plurality of evenly arranged vibrators 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the distribution hopper inside the support frame 1, and each vibrator 13 corresponds to a distribution pipe 11; a feeding plate 14 is fixedly connected to the output end of each vibrator 13; during operation, when it is necessary to fill the material to be sorted... When processing medicinal materials, the user needs to pour the materials into the hopper 10 at the top of the support frame 1. The materials then fall into the distribution pipe 11 under the guidance of the hopper 10, and then into the extension pipe 12. The materials then fall onto the feeding plate 14, and the vibrator 13 drives the feeding plate 14 to vibrate, thus causing the materials to move forward along the feeding plate 14. The user can adjust the position of the extension pipe 12 through the fixing component so that the distance between the extension pipe 12 and the feeding plate 14 allows only a single material to pass through, thereby avoiding the stacking of materials and the simultaneous passage of multiple materials through the camera component 6, which would affect the accuracy of sorting.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the fixing assembly includes a support plate 15; the support plate 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support frame 1; a plurality of evenly arranged threaded rods 16 are rotatably connected to the surface of the support plate 15, and the threaded rods 16 correspond one-to-one with the extension tubes 12; a connecting plate 17 is threadedly connected to the surface of each threaded rod 16; the connecting plate 17 is fixedly connected to the surface of the extension tube 12; a handle 18 is rotatably connected to one side of the support plate 15, and the handle 18 is connected to the threaded rods 16 through a gear set and a chain; during operation, 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, which drives the plurality of threaded rods 16 to rotate simultaneously through the gear set and 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 realize the function of synchronously adjusting the distance between the plurality of extension tubes 12 and the guide plate 2, thereby avoiding the user's manual adjustment one by one, and thus reducing the user's operating difficulty.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the inside of the hopper 10 is rotatably connected with a rotating rod 19; the rotating rod 19 is driven by an external motor; the surface of the rotating rod 19 is fixedly connected with a plurality of uniformly arranged stirring plates 20; when the medicinal materials are introduced into the inside of the hopper 10, the external motor drives the rotating rod 19 to rotate, and the rotating rod 19 drives the stirring plates 20 on the surface thereof to rotate, and the stirring plates 20 stir the medicinal materials in the hopper 10, so that the medicinal materials are not pressed together, the medicinal materials at the bottom are not pressed tightly under the gravity of the medicinal materials at the top, and the medicinal materials are not stuck at the bottom of the extension pipe 12 and cannot be taken out of the extension pipe 12 by the guide plate 2.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 , the bottom surface of the support frame 1 is provided with a plurality of 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 uniformly arranged rotating rollers 23; the top surface of the rotating roller 23 is provided with a plurality of uniformly arranged receiving boxes 24; a plurality of the receiving boxes 24 correspond to the distribution pipes 11 one by one; before sorting the traditional Chinese medicines, the user needs to place the receiving boxes 24 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22 and align the receiving boxes 24 with the respective distribution pipes 9, and then the user starts the embodiment and sorts the medicinal materials, introduces the medicinal materials of different qualities into the distribution pipes 9, and then introduces the medicinal materials into the respective receiving boxes 24, so as to realize the classified storage of the medicinal materials.

[0037] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , one side of the support frame 1 is fixedly connected with a mounting seat 25; the top surface of the mounting seat 25 is rotatably connected with a barrel-shaped cam 26, and the barrel-shaped cam 26 is driven by a servo motor; the mobile seat 27 is slidably connected in the groove on the surface of the barrel-shaped cam 26; the end of the mobile seat 27 away from the barrel-shaped cam 26 is provided with a connecting assembly; the connecting assembly is used to connect the mobile seat 27 and the receiving box 24 together; during the process that the distribution pipes 9 introduce the medicinal materials into the respective receiving boxes 24, the top surface of the mounting seat 25 is rotatable under the driving of the barrel-shaped cam 26, and the rotating barrel-shaped cam 26 drives the mobile seat 27 in the groove on the surface thereof to do reciprocating motion along the axis of the barrel-shaped cam 26, and then the reciprocating mobile seat 27 drives the connecting assembly, the receiving plate and the receiving box 24 to do reciprocating motion, and due to the reciprocating motion of the receiving box 24 at the bottom of the distribution pipe 9, the medicinal materials flowing out of the distribution pipe 9 can be more uniformly laid in the inside of the receiving box 24, instead of being all concentrated in the middle of the receiving box 24, so that the receiving box 24 can accommodate more medicinal materials.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1、 Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the bottom plate 22 is provided with a rotating column 28 at one end away from the mounting base 25; the rotating column 28 is driven by a servo motor; the surface of the rotating column 28 is fixedly connected with a pair of symmetrically arranged arc-shaped plates 29; the side surface of the mounting base 25 close to the rotating column 28 is fixedly connected with a plurality of uniformly arranged springs 30; the end of the spring 30 away from the mounting base 25 is fixedly connected with a push plate 31; during operation, when the connecting seat 33 drives the receiving box 24 to move back and forth, the rotating column 28 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22 will also rotate synchronously, and the arc-shaped plates 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 will press the receiving box 24, so that the receiving box 24 moves towards the mounting plate, thereby pressing the push plate 31 and compressing the spring 30; when the arc-shaped plates 29 no longer press the receiving box 24, the spring 30 restores and pushes the push plate 31 to press the receiving box 24, thereby making the receiving box 24 shake back and forth, further making the medicinal materials in the receiving box 24 more evenly laid.

[0039] As shown in the figure, Figure 1 and Figure 6 The connecting assembly comprises a horizontal plate 32; the horizontal plate 32 is fixedly connected with the moving seat 27, and the moving seat 27 is fixedly connected at the middle part of the horizontal plate 32; the two ends of the horizontal plate 32 are provided with connecting seats 33; the surface of the connecting seat 33 is slidingly connected with a baffle 34; the end of the baffle 34 close to the mounting base 25 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 35; during operation, when the user needs to move the receiving box 24 by the connecting seat 33, 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, thereby making 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 move back and forth; when the user needs to take out the receiving box 24 from the bottom of the support frame 1, the user needs to close the rotating column 28, so that the arc-shaped plates 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 no longer press 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 just at the socket 21, and the user can push one side of the receiving box 24 from the socket 21; at this time, the bottom surface rotating roller 23 will rotate, thereby reducing the friction when the receiving box 24 moves, and facilitating the user to take out the receiving box 24 from the bottom of the support frame 1.

[0040] As shown in the figure, Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 8As shown, one side of the receiving box 24 is fixedly connected with a magnet block 36; the surface of the side of the receiving box 24 away from the magnet block 36 is provided with a slot 37; the slot 37 is matched with the magnet block 36; the bottom of the slot 37 is fixedly connected with a metal plate 38, and the metal plate 38 is made of magnetizable metal; in working, when the user pushes the receiving box 24 from the slot 21, the magnet block 36 on the surface of one receiving box 24 is inserted into the slot 37 on the surface of the receiving box 24 and adsorbs the metal plate 38 in the slot 37, so that the receiving box 24 at the same row is connected at the head and tail, at this time, the user can pull out a plurality of receiving boxes 24 from one side, thereby facilitating the user's unloading operation.

[0041] In working, when sorting traditional Chinese medicine, the embodiment of the application is used, first, the user needs to put the traditional Chinese medicine to be sorted into the feeding assembly, and the feeding assembly sends the medicine to the surface of the guide plate 2 one by one, because the guide plate 2 is arranged obliquely, so the medicine slides along the guide plate 2 to the bottom of the support frame 1, when the medicine is separated from the guide plate 2 at the bottom of the guide plate 2, the camera assembly 6 in the containing box 3 photographs the medicine in the air, and transmits the electrical signal generated after photographing to the external microcomputer, the external microcomputer processes to determine whether the quality of the medicine is excellent, good or unqualified, and then controls the air jet seat 4 and the air jet pipe 5 in the containing box 3 on both sides to jet air to the medicine, so that the medicine is introduced into the same group but different position guide pipes 7, thereby further sorting the medicine of different qualities, so that not only the unqualified medicine can be picked out, but also the medicine with good appearance can be sorted out from the ordinary medicine, to facilitate the user to process or sell in different strategies.

[0042] When the air jet pipe 5 sprays the medicine to the guide pipe 7 at different positions, the guide hopper 8 at the top of the guide pipe 7 can expand the receiving area of the guide pipe 7, so as to avoid the waste of medicine due to falling outside the guide pipe 7, and the shunt pipe 9 at the bottom of the guide pipe 7 can also separate the medicine of different qualities, so as to facilitate the user to collect separately, and avoid the sorted medicine from mixing together due to the guide pipes 7 being too close.

[0043] When it is needed to fill the medicine to be sorted, the user needs to pour the medicine into the feeding hopper 10 at the top of the support frame 1, then the medicine falls into the distribution pipe 11 under the guidance of the feeding hopper 10, then falls into the extension pipe 12 from the distribution pipe 11, and falls on the feeding plate 14 again, and the vibrator 13 drives the feeding plate 14 to vibrate, so that the medicine advances along the feeding plate 14, and the user can adjust the position of the extension pipe 12 through the fixing assembly, so that the distance between the extension pipe 12 and the feeding plate 14 can only allow a single medicine to pass, so as to avoid the medicine from stacking and passing through the camera assembly 6 at the same time, thereby affecting the accuracy of sorting.

[0044] When the user needs to adjust the distance between the extension pipe 12 and the guide plate 2, the user needs to rotate the handle 18, which drives the plurality of threaded rods 16 to rotate simultaneously through the gear set and the chain, and then drives the connecting plate 17 to move through the rotating threaded rods 16, and finally drives the extension pipe 12 to slide on the surface of the distribution pipe 11 through the connecting plate 17, so as to realize the synchronous adjustment of the distance between the plurality of extension pipes 12 and the guide plate 2, thereby avoiding manual adjustment one by one by the user, and further reducing the operation difficulty of the user.

[0045] When the medicinal materials are introduced into the lower hopper 10, the external motor drives the rotating rod 19 to rotate, and the rotating rod 19 drives the stirring plate 20 on the surface thereof to rotate together, so as to stir the medicinal materials in the lower hopper 10, thereby avoiding that the herbs are pressed together, and the medicinal materials at the bottom are pressed tightly under the action of the gravity of the medicinal materials at the top, and further causing the medicinal materials to be stuck at the bottom of the extension pipe 12 and cannot be taken out of the extension pipe 12 by the vibrating guide plate 2.

[0046] 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 distribution pipe 9, and then the user starts the embodiment of the application, and sorts the medicinal materials, and introduces the medicinal materials of different qualities into the distribution pipe 9, and then introduces the medicinal materials into each receiving box 24 through the distribution pipe 9, thereby realizing the classified storage of the medicinal materials.

[0047] During the process that the distribution pipe 9 introduces the medicinal materials into each receiving box 24, the top barrel cam 26 of the mounting seat 25 is driven by the servo motor to rotate, and the rotating barrel cam 26 drives the moving seat 27 in the groove on the surface thereof to do reciprocating motion along the axis of the barrel cam 26, and then drives the connecting assembly, the receiving plate and the receiving box 24 to do reciprocating motion through the reciprocating moving seat 27, so that the medicinal materials flowing out of the distribution pipe 9 can be more evenly laid in the receiving box 24 due to the reciprocating motion of the receiving box 24 at the bottom of the distribution pipe 9, instead of being 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 do reciprocating motion, the rotating column 28 on the top surface of the bottom plate 22 also rotates synchronously, and the arc-shaped plate 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 presses the receiving box 24, so that the receiving box 24 moves towards the mounting plate, thereby pressing the push plate 31 and compressing the spring 30, and when the arc-shaped plate 29 no longer presses the receiving box 24, the spring 30 restores and pushes the push plate 31 to press the receiving box 24, thereby making the receiving box 24 shake back and forth, and further making the medicinal materials in the receiving box 24 be laid more evenly.

[0049] When the user needs to connect the 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, and when the user needs to take out the receiving box 24 from the bottom of the support frame 1, the user needs to close the rotating column 28, and the arc-shaped plate 29 on the surface of the rotating column 28 no longer extrudes 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 just at the socket 21, the user can push one side of the receiving box 24 from the socket 21, at this time the bottom surface rotating roller 23 will rotate, thereby reducing the friction when the receiving box 24 moves, and facilitating the user to take out the receiving box 24 from the bottom of the support frame 1.

[0050] When the user pushes the receiving box 24 from the socket 21, a magnet block 36 on the surface of the receiving box 24 is inserted into the slot 37 on the surface of the receiving box 24, and the metal plate 38 in the slot 37 is adsorbed, so that the receiving boxes 24 in the same row are connected at the head and tail, at this time the user can take out a plurality of receiving boxes 24 from one side, thereby facilitating the user to unload the operation.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present application is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions in the specification are only to illustrate the principles of the present application, and various changes and improvements can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present application.
