Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of Chinese medicine decoction, and in particular to an automatic decoction method. Background Art

[0002] At present, the technology of automatic decoction of traditional Chinese medicine has gradually emerged, which can improve the efficiency of decoction, which is very important for many patients. Since traditional Chinese medicine needs to be proportioned (the weight of the ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine and water), and needs to be poured into the decoction for heating and other processes, it is necessary to transfer and pour the medicine barrels containing traditional Chinese medicine and water. At present, the existing technology can only complete the transportation and clamping of the medicine barrels. The applicant has previously applied for a medicine delivery device and a medicine delivery method for an automatic decoction room, with the application number 202211686372.5. The decoction action process of the automatic decoction room is to first put the medicine bag and water into the medicine barrel, which needs to be operated outside the decoction room body, and then the medicine barrel is transported to the decoction room body, and then transferred to the top of the decoction machine through the medicine barrel clamp, and then the water and medicine bag in the medicine barrel are poured into the decoction machine. After the decoction is completed, the decoction is directly sent to the decoction automatic packaging machine through the medicine outlet pipe to be packaged into small packages. The traditional Chinese medicine in the decoction machine is manually taken out of the medicine bag. The medicine barrel is then returned to the conveyor roller by the clamp and then cleaned manually.

[0003] However, the above-mentioned decoction method is not reasonable, and has at least the following defects: 1. The medicine bag needs to be taken out manually, and the temperature of the medicine bag is high after decoction, which is easy to cause burns; 2. When the Chinese medicine bag needs to be replaced, the inner cavity of the decoction machine needs to be cleaned, and the cleaning action is long and the decoction action cannot be performed, so the decoction efficiency is relatively low, especially the inner cavity wall of the decoction machine. During the decoction process, the medicine liquid churns inside, so the inner wall of the inner cavity near the upper mouth will also have residual decoction, so more clean water needs to be injected for cleaning, resulting in increased water consumption; 3. The used medicine barrels also need to be cleaned, and the cleaned medicine barrels need to be manually sent one by one to the upstream of the conveyor roller line, so the operator needs to carry the medicine barrels, which is labor-intensive and heavy; 4. The medicine barrels need to be dumped, which is easy to cause water splashing. The splashing water causes a reduction in the amount of decoction water, affecting the final amount of decoction. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an automatic medicine decocting method, which performs the medicine decocting operation by placing a medicine barrel into a medicine decocting machine, omitting the manual removal of medicine bags and the step of pouring the medicine bags in the medicine barrel, thereby not only improving the safety performance, but also avoiding the situation where the amount of clean water is splashed and reduced during pouring, thereby improving the accuracy of the final decoction amount.
