Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine residue treatment technology, and more specifically, to a residue dumping device and a residue dumping and packaging machine. Background Technology

[0002] There are two methods for decocting Chinese medicine. One method is to place the Chinese medicinal herbs directly into the decoction pot and decoct them, then discard the dregs after decoction. The other method is to wrap the Chinese medicinal herbs in a non-woven fabric package, put the whole package into the pot and decoct it, then discard the whole package after decoction.

[0003] In related technologies, whole packets of Chinese medicinal herbs can be removed directly after decoction and left for a period of time before further processing. This makes it convenient to pour out the dregs, but the medicinal effects are difficult to fully release during decoction. Alternatively, dregs produced by directly placing the herbs in the pot for decoction tend to stick together in the pot or during pouring, making them difficult to pour out. Regardless of the decoction method, the dregs in the decoction pot need to be poured out manually after it has cooled down, a time-consuming and cumbersome process. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to at least solve some of the problems mentioned in the related technologies, this application provides a dregs dumping device and a dregs dumping and packaging machine.

[0005] A dregs-discharging device for discharging dregs from a decoction pot includes a frame with a conveying assembly and a discharging assembly mounted on it. The conveying assembly transports the decoction pot to the discharging assembly. The conveying assembly includes a supporting section, a first conveying section, and a second conveying section. The supporting section is mounted on the first conveying section and supports the decoction pot. The first conveying section transports the decoction pot along a first direction, and the second conveying section transports the decoction pot along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

[0006] The pouring assembly includes a snap-fit ​​part and a rotating part. The snap-fit ​​part is rotatably mounted on the rotating part to snap and fix the decoction pot. The rotating part can drive the snap-fit ​​part to rotate so as to pour out the dregs in the decoction pot.

[0007] Furthermore, the first conveying unit includes a belt conveyor and a guide plate, the bearing unit is disposed on the belt of the belt conveyor, and the guide plate is disposed on both sides of the belt conveyor along the first direction.

[0008] Furthermore, the supporting part includes a supporting plate, the decoction pot is placed on the supporting plate, and limiting members are evenly distributed along the edge of the supporting plate. The distance between any two adjacent limiting members is L1, and the diameter of the decoction pot is L2, satisfying: L1 < L2.

[0009] Furthermore, the second conveying unit includes a linear bearing and a conveying mounting plate. The conveying mounting plate is disposed on the frame, and the linear bearing is disposed between the conveying mounting plate and the support of the belt conveyor to guide the belt conveyor to move in the second direction.

[0010] Furthermore, the tilting assembly also includes a tilting frame, which is rotatably mounted on the rotating part and used to support the decoction pot; the snap-fit ​​part is disposed on the tilting frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the locking part includes a pressure pot upright plate, which is disposed on the tilting frame. A pressure pot plate is disposed on the pressure pot upright plate facing the decoction pot. The pressure pot plate is hinged to the end of the pressure pot upright plate, and the end of the pressure pot plate away from the pressure pot upright plate can be pressed against the end of the decoction pot.

[0012] Furthermore, the locking part also includes a pressure cooker cylinder, which includes a fixed end and a movable end. The fixed end is disposed on the pressure cooker upright plate, and the movable end extends toward the pressure cooker plate and can drive the pressure cooker plate to rotate.

[0013] Furthermore, the frame is provided with a hopper assembly, which includes a hopper and a vibrating part, and the dregs in the decoction pot are poured into the hopper; the vibrating part includes a vibrator and an air hammer, both of which are located outside the hopper and abut against the side wall of the hopper to vibrate the hopper.

[0014] Furthermore, the hopper is mounted on the frame, and a vibration damper is provided between the hopper and the frame.

[0015] This application also provides a dregs packaging machine, including a packaging component and a dregs dumping device as described in any of the above embodiments; the packaging component is disposed on the frame and is used to package the dregs dumped by the dregs dumping device.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0017] In use, the dregs-pouring device of this application involves placing the decoction pot containing the dregs to be poured into the supporting part of the conveying assembly. The first and second conveying parts cooperate to convey the decoction pot to the locking part of the pouring assembly. The locking part locks and fixes the decoction pot in place. Then, the rotating part drives the locking part to rotate, which in turn drives the decoction pot to rotate, thereby completing the pouring of the dregs from the decoction pot.

[0018] The dregs pouring device of this application can transport the decoction pot to the pouring component for pouring immediately after the decoction is completed. The pouring process requires no manual intervention, reducing labor costs and avoiding the potential harm to the operator from an uncooled decoction pot, thus enhancing safety. Pouring does not require waiting for the decoction pot to cool down, resulting in higher efficiency and a more convenient process.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0030] In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "setup" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] This application provides a medicinal residue dumping device to solve the problems mentioned in related technologies, such as the time-consuming and cumbersome process of dumping medicinal residue.

[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 3 A dregs dumping device is disclosed for dumping dregs from a decoction pot 110. The device includes a frame 100, on which a conveying assembly 200 and a dumping assembly 300 are mounted. The conveying assembly 200 conveys the decoction pot 110 to the dumping assembly 300. The conveying assembly 200 includes a supporting part 210, a first conveying part 220, and a second conveying part 230. The supporting part 210 is mounted on the first conveying part 220 and supports the decoction pot 110. The first conveying part 220 conveys the decoction pot 110 along a first direction, and the second conveying part 230 conveys the decoction pot 110 along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

[0033] The pouring assembly 300 includes a snap-fit ​​part 310 and a rotating part 320. The snap-fit ​​part 310 is rotatably mounted on the rotating part 320 to snap-fit ​​and fix the decoction pot 110. The rotating part 320 can drive the snap-fit ​​part 310 to rotate so as to pour out the dregs in the decoction pot 110.

[0034] Specifically, after the decoction of Chinese medicinal herbs is completed and the dregs in the decoction pot 110 need to be poured out, the decoction pot 110 is moved onto the conveying assembly 200 of this embodiment. The conveying assembly 200 then transports the decoction pot 110 to the target position. The decoction pot 110 is placed on the support part 210, and the first conveying part 220 transports the support part 210 along a first direction, that is, it transports the decoction pot 110 along the first direction. The second conveying part 230 can transport the first conveying part 220 and the decoction pot 110 together along a second direction.

[0035] Since the first direction and the second direction are arranged perpendicularly, in this embodiment, the first conveying part 220 can convey in the horizontal direction and the second conveying part 230 can convey in the vertical direction. The first conveying part 220 and the second conveying part 230 can cooperate to convey the decoction pot 110 to the target position, that is, to convey the decoction pot 110 to the tilting component 300.

[0036] After the decoction pot 110 is conveyed to the pouring assembly 300, the locking part 310 locks and fixes the decoction pot 110. After the locking part 310 and the decoction pot 110 are fixed relative to each other, the rotating part 320 drives the locking part 310 to rotate, that is, drives the decoction pot 110 to rotate, so that the opening of the decoction pot 110 faces downward, so that the dregs in the decoction pot 110 can be poured out.

[0037] It is understandable that after the decoction pot 110 has finished decocting the Chinese herbal medicine pieces, the decoction pot 110 can be transferred to any conveying or transfer device. The conveying or transfer device can then automatically move the decoction pot 110 onto the conveying component 200 of this embodiment, thereby further improving the automation level and efficiency of the dregs disposal.

[0038] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first conveying unit 220 includes a belt conveyor 221 and guide plates 222. The carrying unit 210 is disposed on the belt of the belt conveyor 221, and the guide plates 222 are disposed on both sides of the belt conveyor 221 along a first direction. The belt conveyor 221 of the first conveying unit 220 can cooperate with other external conveying equipment, transfer equipment, etc. After receiving the decoction pot 110 moved by other external equipment, it moves the decoction pot 110 along the belt conveyor 221 to the target position, making the transfer process of the decoction pot 110 faster and more convenient.

[0039] Multiple guide plates 222 are provided on both sides of the belt conveyor 221. These guide plates can guide the belt of the belt conveyor 221 to prevent the conveying direction of the belt conveyor 221 from deviating from the predetermined track, and can also prevent the decoction pot 110 from falling off the belt conveyor 221 during the conveying process, thereby improving the safety of this embodiment.

[0040] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 3 As shown, the supporting part 210 includes a supporting plate, on which the decoction pot 110 is placed. Limiting members 211 are evenly distributed along the edge of the supporting plate, with the distance between any two adjacent limiting members 211 being L1 and the diameter of the decoction pot 110 being L2, satisfying: L1 < L2. The evenly distributed limiting members 211 along the circumference of the edge of the supporting plate, and the distance between the limiting members 211 being less than the diameter of the decoction pot 110, effectively prevents the decoction pot 110 from detaching from or separating from the supporting plate during movement, further improving the reliability of the conveying process of the decoction pot 110 in this embodiment.

[0041] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second conveying unit 230 includes a linear bearing 231 and a conveying mounting plate 232. The conveying mounting plate 232 is mounted on the frame 100, and the linear bearing 231 is positioned between the conveying mounting plate 232 and the support of the belt conveyor 221 to guide the belt conveyor 221 to move in the second direction. After the first conveying unit 220 conveys the decoction pot 110 to a suitable position in the horizontal direction, the second conveying unit 230 operates, and the linear bearing 231 extends or retracts, thereby causing the first conveying unit 220 to rise or fall in the vertical direction, thus sending the decoction pot 110 to a suitable position in the vertical direction so that the tilting assembly 300 can tilt the decoction pot 110.

[0042] Understandably, a power unit is also provided on the frame 100 to drive the first conveyor section 220 and the second conveyor section 230 respectively. In the first conveyor section 220, the guide plate 222 restricts the conveying direction, and the power unit drives the belt conveyor 221 to move, conveying the decoction pot 110. Correspondingly, the linear bearing 231 in the second conveyor section 230 can also restrict the direction, and the power unit drives the first conveyor section 220 to move in the direction restricted by the linear bearing 231.

[0043] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 3As shown, the conveying assembly 200 also includes a control circuit board, which is electrically connected to the power unit of the belt conveyor 221. A decoction pot proximity switch 223 is installed in the first conveying section 220, and the control circuit board is electrically connected to the decoction pot proximity switch 223. When the belt conveyor 221 conveys the decoction pot 110, the decoction pot proximity switch 223 can detect the position of the decoction pot 110. After detecting that the decoction pot 110 is placed on the belt conveyor 221, the decoction pot proximity switch 223 sends an electrical signal to the control circuit board, which then controls the power unit of the belt conveyor 221 to operate, i.e., the belt conveyor 221 begins to convey the decoction pot 110. When the decoction pot proximity switch 223 detects that the position of the decoction pot 110 has reached the target position, the decoction pot proximity switch 223 sends an electrical signal to the control circuit board, which then controls the power unit of the belt conveyor 221 to stop operating, enabling the first conveying section 220 to automatically convey the decoction pot 110 to the target position.

[0044] The second conveying unit 230 is equipped with a lifting position proximity switch 233. The control circuit board is electrically connected to the lifting position proximity switch 233 and also electrically connected to the power unit of the second conveying unit 230. After the lifting position proximity switch 233 detects the position of the decoction pot 110, it sends an electrical signal to the control circuit board, causing the control circuit board to send an electrical signal to the power unit of the second conveying unit 230 to start its operation. After the second conveying unit 230 moves the first conveying unit 220 to a suitable height, the lifting position proximity switch 233 sends an electrical signal to the control circuit board again, and the control circuit board then controls the power unit of the second conveying unit 230 to stop operating, enabling the second conveying unit 230 to cooperate with the first conveying unit 220 to automatically convey the decoction pot 110 to the target position.

[0045] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 4 As shown, the tilting assembly 300 also includes a tilting frame 330, which is rotatably mounted on the rotating part 320 to support the decoction pot 110; a locking part 310 is disposed on the tilting frame 330. The decoction pot 110 is placed on the tilting frame 330, allowing the locking part 310 to more stably and reliably engage the decoction pot 110. Correspondingly, when it is necessary to rotate the decoction pot 110 to tilt the dregs, simply rotate the tilting frame 330.

[0046] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 4As shown, the locking part 310 includes a pressure pot upright plate, which is mounted on the tilting frame 330. A pressure plate 311 is positioned on the pressure pot upright plate facing the decoction pot 110. The pressure plate 311 is hinged to the end of the pressure pot upright plate, and the end of the pressure plate 311 away from the pressure pot upright plate can press against the end of the decoction pot 110. After the conveying assembly 200 conveys the decoction pot 110 onto the tilting frame 330, the side wall of the decoction pot 110 abuts against the pressure pot upright plate. The pressure plate 311 is rotated so that its end presses against the decoction pot 110. At this time, the bottom of the decoction pot 110 rests on the tilting frame 330, and the top of the decoction pot 110 is pressed against by the pressure plate 311. Through the cooperation between the tilting frame 330 and the pressure plate 311, the decoction pot 110 is fixed. In addition, the side wall of the decoction pot 110 also abuts against the pressure pot upright plate, further ensuring that the locking part 310 restricts the decoction pot 110 comprehensively and reliably.

[0047] It should be noted that a rotating arm is provided on the tilting frame 330, and one end of the rotating arm away from the tilting frame 330 is hinged to the rotating part 320. The rotating arm and the pressure pot upright are located on the same side of the tilting frame 330. In this way, the rotating part 320 and the pressure pot upright are located on the same side, and the decoction pot 110 can be moved onto the tilting frame 330 from any other direction. The tilting frame 330 then fixes the decoction pot 110 in place. The pressure pot upright and the rotating arm will not interfere with the movement of the decoction pot 110, making the structural design of this embodiment more reasonable.

[0048] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 4 As shown, a positioning pin 331 is provided on the tilting frame 330, and the positioning pin 331 is located on the tilting frame 330 near the pressure pot upright plate. In this way, during the process of the decoction pot 110 being moved to the tilting frame 330 by the conveying component 200, the decoction pot 110 will be affected by the positioning pin 331. That is, the positioning pin 331 will guide the position of the decoction pot 110, so that the decoction pot 110 can be fixedly moved to a suitable position, further improving the reliability of the automated decoction of medicine residue in this embodiment.

[0049] Understandably, multiple positioning pins 331 can be set along the moving direction of the decoction pot 110 according to actual conditions, so as to more reliably and stably restrict the moving trajectory of the decoction pot 110.

[0050] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 4As shown, the locking part 310 also includes a pressure pot cylinder 312. The pressure pot cylinder 312 includes a fixed end and a movable end. The fixed end is disposed on the pressure pot upright plate, and the movable end extends toward the pressure pot plate 311 and can drive the pressure pot plate 311 to rotate. After the decoction pot 110 moves to a suitable position, the pressure pot cylinder 312 is activated, the movable end extends, and drives the pressure pot plate 311 to rotate, so that one end of the pressure pot plate 311 is pressed onto the decoction pot 110, thereby pressing and fixing the decoction pot 110.

[0051] This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on the structure of the movable end of the pressure cooker cylinder 312; the movable end can be arbitrarily set according to actual conditions. For example, a mounting groove is provided on the pressure cooker upright plate, and the pressure cooker cylinder 312 is disposed within the mounting groove. The movable end of the pressure cooker cylinder 312 is located between the fixed end and the pressure cooker plate 311. The movable end is a straight rod, with one end installed inside the pressure cooker cylinder 312 and the other end hinged to the pressure cooker plate 311. Thus, when the movable end extends, the pressure cooker plate 311 is lifted, releasing the pressure on the decoction pot 110; when the movable end retracts, the pressure cooker plate 311 falls, pressing and fixing the decoction pot 110.

[0052] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 4 As shown, a pressure cooker upright plate is equipped with a pressure cooker detection switch 314 and a pressure cooker proximity switch 313, both of which are electrically connected to the control circuit board. When the decoction pot 110 is conveyed to the tilting frame 330, and the decoction pot 110 moves to the target position, the pressure cooker detection switch 314 detects that the decoction pot 110 has moved to the appropriate position and sends an electrical signal to the control circuit board. Upon receiving the signal, the control circuit board controls the pressure cooker cylinder 312 to retract its movable end, causing the pressure cooker plate 311 to press against the decoction pot 110. Once the pressure cooker plate 311 is pressed into the appropriate position, the pressure cooker proximity switch 313 sends an electrical signal to the control circuit board, which then controls the pressure cooker cylinder 312 to stop. The decoction pot 110 is then automatically engaged with the tilting frame 330. The rotating part 320 drives the tilting frame 330 to rotate, thus completing the pouring of the dregs.

[0053] Understandably, after the pouring operation is completed, the control circuit board will control the pressure plate 311 to lift again, so that the decoction pot 110 can be released from its fixed position and then moved to the next process for cleaning or re-processing.

[0054] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 5As shown, a hopper assembly 400 is provided on the frame 100. The hopper assembly 400 includes a hopper 410 and a vibrating part 420. The dregs of the decoction pot 110 are poured into the hopper 410. The vibrating part 420 includes a vibrator 421 and an air hammer 422. Both the vibrator 421 and the air hammer 422 are located outside the hopper 410 and abut against the side wall of the hopper 410 to vibrate the hopper 410. After the pouring assembly 300 pours the dregs of the decoction pot 110 into the hopper assembly 400, other components such as bags for holding dregs or packaging components 500 can be pre-installed at the outlet of the hopper 410 to package and preserve the dregs, making this embodiment more practical.

[0055] During the dumping of the medicinal residue, the vibrating unit 420 can continuously vibrate the hopper 410 to prevent the residue from sticking inside the hopper 410 and causing problems such as incomplete dumping. Specifically, the vibrator 421 can continuously generate vibration to assist the medicinal residue in falling; at the same time, the air hammer 422 continuously hammers the hopper 410, which can also generate vibration to prevent the medicinal residue from remaining in the hopper 410.

[0056] It should be noted that there are usually two ways to decoct Chinese medicinal herbs. The first is to place the Chinese medicinal herbs directly into the decoction pot 110 for decoction. The second is to wrap the herbs in a non-woven fabric bag before decoction, put the whole bag into the decoction pot, and take the whole bag out after decoction.

[0057] If the first decoction method is used, the dregs after decoction may stick to the inside of the decoction pot 110 when poured out, and the dregs are scattered and inconvenient to store. If the second decoction method is used, the medicinal herbs cannot fully contact the water during the decoction process, which will affect the release of the medicinal effects. In addition, regardless of the decoction method used, the dregs after decoction are not easy to handle. If the dregs accumulate and are exposed to the outside air for a long time, problems such as putrefaction and the breeding of insects and ants may occur.

[0058] In this embodiment, the first decoction method is used when decocting the Chinese herbal medicine slices to ensure that the medicinal effects are fully released. After decoction, the dregs can be automatically poured out in this embodiment. During the pouring process, the vibrator 421 and the air hammer 422 continuously vibrate the hopper 410, and the vibration can also be transmitted to the decoction pot 110, thereby ensuring that a large amount of loose dregs do not remain in the decoction pot 110 or the hopper 410.

[0059] The dumped medicinal residue can be collected and packaged in separate containers by pre-installing packaging bags or other components such as packaging components 500 at the discharge port of hopper 410. This prevents the residue from contacting air and avoids problems such as spoilage and insect infestation. Furthermore, the separate packaging allows for better preservation of the residue for subsequent testing or unified processing.

[0060] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 5 As shown, an air blowing pipe is installed inside the hopper 410. When pouring the dregs, the air blowing pipe can blow air into the hopper 410 or the decoction pot 110, blowing off the remaining dregs in the hopper 410 or the decoction pot 110. In conjunction with the vibrator 421 and the air hammer 422, it is further ensured that the dregs will not stick to the hopper 410 or the decoction pot 110, thus ensuring the reliability of the pouring operation.

[0061] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 5 As shown, the hopper 410 is mounted on the frame 100, and a vibration damper is provided between the hopper 410 and the frame 100. This reduces the outward vibration transmitted from the hopper 410, weakens the vibration energy, and prevents the vibration at the hopper 410 from affecting other components of this embodiment, thereby improving the overall reliability and rationality of this embodiment.

[0062] This application also provides a dregs packaging machine, including a packaging component 500 and a dregs dumping device as described in any of the above embodiments; the packaging component 500 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to package the dregs dumped by the dregs dumping device.

[0063] The dregs packaging machine of this embodiment has the dregs dumping device described in any of the above embodiments, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the dregs dumping device, which will not be repeated here.
