Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medicinal material processing equipment, in particular to a medicinal material steaming and slicing equipment. Background Art

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine can not only cure diseases, but also prevent them. Therefore, with the promotion and application of traditional Chinese medicine technology, people's demand for Chinese medicinal materials is increasing. Traditional Chinese medicine processing technology includes steaming, which is a method of processing medicine by adding or removing auxiliary materials into a steaming container and heating it with water vapor or water insulation to a certain degree. Steaming can change the properties of medicines, expand the scope of use and reduce the side effects of medicines. Some medicinal materials are relatively hard and need to be softened by steaming before slicing. Therefore, steaming is widely used in Chinese medicine factories. At present, most Chinese medicine factories have separate equipment for steaming and cutting medicinal materials. Therefore, they need to be transported manually after steaming. Although there are some steaming and cutting equipment on the market, these equipment have only one cavity for moistening the medicine. In order to make the medicinal materials fully steamed, the cavity for moistening the medicine is generally not made very large. Therefore, the number of medicinal materials processed each time is limited, which makes the production efficiency not high enough.

[0003] The technical content disclosed in the Chinese patent document (publication number: CN109159170A, patent name: integrated Chinese medicine slicer and its use method) is: the integrated Chinese medicine slicer of the present invention includes a body with a medicine inlet and a medicine outlet, and a medicine moistening mechanism, a medicine slicing mechanism and a medicine drying mechanism arranged in the body in sequence, the medicine slicing mechanism includes a rotating blade arranged in the body and a medicine pushing plate for pushing the medicine from the medicine inlet to the rotating blade, the medicine pushing plate is fixed on the first end of the push rod; the medicine moistening mechanism includes a medicine moistening cavity connected to the medicine inlet and a steam generator connected to the medicine moistening cavity, and the medicine pushing plate is slidably arranged in the medicine moistening cavity.

[0004] It can be seen from the above implementation scheme that the Chinese medicine slicer is provided with a medicine moistening mechanism, but it can be seen from the figure that the medicine moistening mechanism is only a storage box. In order to allow the medicinal materials to be fully steamed and moistened, the storage box can only steam and moisten a small number of medicinal materials each time. Therefore, if the Chinese medicine slicer is used to steam and moisten the medicinal materials, the number of medicinal materials that can be processed each time is limited, which will lead to low production efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The preferred embodiments of the invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the invention, and are not used to limit the invention.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 14 As shown, a medicinal material steaming and slicing device is used for steaming and slicing medicinal materials. Steaming of medicinal materials without adding auxiliary materials is called plain steaming, and steaming of medicinal materials with auxiliary materials is called steaming with auxiliary materials. Steaming directly with circulating steam is called "direct steaming", and steaming of medicines under closed conditions is called "indirect steaming". The present invention includes a steaming device 2, a medicine box input conveying component 1 is provided on one side of the steaming device 2, and a stacking component 3 is provided in front of the steaming device 2; a discharging robot 5, a medicinal material collecting and conveying component 7, and a slicing component 9 are provided on the side of the steaming device 2 away from the medicine box input conveying component 1; after the medicinal materials are loaded through the medicine box, they are sent to the stacking component 3 by the medicine box input conveying component 1. This method of loading medicinal materials with medicine boxes and then placing them in the steaming device 2 can lay out the medicinal materials in batches to avoid too much accumulation of medicinal materials affecting the steaming effect. In addition, for medicinal materials that require different steaming methods, medicine boxes with different structures can be used. If the medicinal materials need to be "directly steamed", medicine boxes with through holes can be used. Medicine box, if it is necessary to perform "indirect steaming" on the medicinal materials, a sealed medicine box can be used, and auxiliary materials can be added to the medicine box in advance as needed, so it is very flexible to use. The stacking component 3 puts the medicine boxes into the steaming equipment 2 one by one. After the steaming equipment 2 completes the steaming of the medicinal materials, the stacking component 3 takes them out, and then the unloading robot 5 pours the medicinal materials into the medicinal material collection and transmission component 7, and finally the medicinal materials are sent to the slicing component 9 for slicing. The whole process does not require human participation, and the medicine box can be used to separate the medicinal materials and place them for steaming. While ensuring that the medicinal materials are fully steamed, a large number of medicinal materials can be processed at the same time, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of medicinal material production.

[0022] The stacking component 3 includes a pushing component 305, which can move up, down, left and right in front of the steaming device 2. The pushing component 305 includes a first pushing mechanism 3051 and a second pushing mechanism 3052. The second pushing mechanism 3052 can extend into the steaming device 2 and can also be folded above the first pushing mechanism 3051; the medicine box containing medicinal materials is transported to the side close to the stacking component 3 by the medicine box input conveying component 1, and the second pushing mechanism 3052 seems to move to a position as high as the belt of the medicine box input conveying component 1. As the belt of the medicine box input conveying component 1 rolls, the medicine box is pushed onto the second pushing mechanism 3052, and the stacking component 3 removes the medicine box And place them one by one inside the steaming and moistening device 2; a medicinal material placement rack 203 is provided inside the steaming and moistening device 2, and a hollow is provided in the middle of every two medicinal material placement racks 203, and the width of the hollow is greater than the width of the second pushing mechanism 3052 but smaller than the width of the medicine box. Therefore, the second pushing mechanism 3052 carrying the medicine box is first moved to a position slightly higher than the upper surface of the medicinal material placement rack 203, and then plugged into the hollow, and then the second pushing mechanism 3052 moves downward, and the medicine box is placed on the medicinal material placement rack 203. Since the bottom of the medicine box is above the hollow position, it is beneficial for the steam to be thrown from the bottom of the medicine box into the inside of the medicine box to steam the medicinal materials during the "direct steaming method".

[0023] The steaming and moistening equipment 2 includes a steaming and moistening box 201, a medicinal material placement rack 203 is arranged inside the steaming and moistening box 201, and a steaming and moistening closed door 202 is arranged on the side of the steaming and moistening box 201 close to the stacking component 3. The steaming and moistening closed door 202 is a rolling shutter door. After the medicine box is placed in the steaming and moistening box 201, the steaming and moistening closed door 202 descends to seal the inside of the steaming and moistening box 201. A steam component is arranged inside the steaming and moistening box 201, and the steam component emits steam to steam the medicinal materials. After the steaming and moistening equipment 2 completes the steaming and moistening of the medicinal materials, the stacking component 3 removes the medicine box and transfers the medicine box to the unloading robot 5. The unloading robot 5 includes a lid opening robot 501 and a material pouring robot 502. The unloading robot 5 is provided with a medicine box output component 4 on the side away from the stacking component 3. The medicine box output component 4 includes a box cover output conveyor belt 401 and a box body output conveyor belt 402. The lid opening robot 501 takes out the box cover and places it on the box cover output conveyor belt 401. The material pouring robot 502 clamps the box body and pours the medicinal materials inside the box body to the medicinal material collecting and conveying component 7. Then the material pouring robot 502 places the empty box body on the box body output conveyor belt 402. Since the box body and the box cover are collected separately, it is convenient for the secondary use of the box body and the box cover. The medicinal material collecting and conveying component 7 transports the medicinal materials to the slicing component 9 for slicing.

[0024] The palletizing assembly 3 includes an upper slide rail 301 and a lower slide rail 302 arranged in parallel, a vertical sliding component 304 is arranged between the upper slide rail 301 and the lower slide rail 302, the upper end of the vertical sliding component 304 is connected to the upper moving component 303, the lower end is connected to the lower moving component 306, and the pushing component 305 is slidably connected to the vertical sliding component 304; The lower moving component 306 includes a transverse movement motor 3061, which is connected to the first sprocket 3062. The first sprocket 3062 is connected to the second sprocket 3063 through a chain. Active rollers 3064 are arranged at both ends of the second sprocket 3063, and passive rollers 3065 are arranged on the side of the active roller 3064. The active roller 3064 and the passive roller 3065 are both rollingly connected to the lower slide rail 302. Therefore, the transverse movement motor 3061 drives the first sprocket 3062 and drives the second sprocket 3063 to rotate through the chain. The second sprocket 3063 drives the active roller (3064) to roll, thereby realizing the movement of the lower moving component on the lower slide rail 302, and the pushing component 305 is slidingly connected to the vertical sliding component 304, so that the pushing component 305 can move up, down, left and right in front of the steaming and wetting equipment 2.

[0025] A diversion component 8 is arranged between the medicinal material collecting and conveying component 7 and the slicing component 9. The medicinal material collecting and conveying component 7 includes a material collecting and uploading mechanism 701, a first conveying component 702 and a falling and shaking mechanism 703. After the medicinal materials are sent to the medicinal material collecting and conveying component 7, the material collecting and uploading mechanism 701 first sends the medicinal materials to the first conveying component 702 in batches, the first conveying component 702 sends the medicinal materials to the falling and shaking mechanism 703, the falling and shaking mechanism 703 shakes the medicinal materials to the diversion component 8, and the diversion component 8 then sends the medicinal materials to the slicing component 9 for slicing.

[0026] The material receiving and uploading mechanism 701 comprises a material receiving frame 7011, at the bottom of which a vibrating bottom plate 7013 is arranged, the vibrating bottom plate 7013 is not connected to the material receiving frame 7011, and the material receiving frame 7011 is connected to the top of the first vibrator 7012; the first vibrator 7012 vibrates so that the medicinal materials just steamed out will not stick together, and at the same time, through continuous vibration, intermittent gaps appear between the medicinal materials due to shaking, which is conducive to the evaporation of water vapor attached to the steamed medicinal materials, and at the same time, the medicinal materials can be converted into an upper and lower position through vibration, so that the medicinal materials that enter the material receiving frame 7011 first and the medicinal materials that enter the material receiving frame 7011 later can have the same opportunity to be transported.

[0027] A climbing support frame 7017 is arranged on one side of the material receiving frame 7011, and a climbing support plate 7018 is arranged in the middle of the climbing support frame 7017. An uploading belt 7015 is arranged on the climbing support plate 7018, and uploading partition plates 7016 are arranged on the uploading belt 7015 at intervals. The uploading belt 7015 is driven by an uploading motor 7014; one end of the uploading belt 7015 penetrates into the bottom of the material receiving frame 7011, and the other end is higher than the top of the material receiving frame 7011. When the uploading belt 7015 rotates, the uploading partition plate 7016 transfers the medicinal materials falling on it to the top.

[0028] The upper end of the upload belt 7015 extends to above the first conveying component 702, so the medicinal materials pulled up by the upload partition plate 7016 finally fall onto the first conveying component 702. The first conveying component 702 includes a first conveying belt 7021. First side guard plates 7022 are provided on both sides of the first conveying belt 7021. The first side guard plates 7022 can prevent the medicinal materials from falling from both sides. A first tail guard plate 7023 is provided at one end of the first conveying belt 7021; the first tail guard plate 7023 can prevent the medicinal materials from falling from one end of the first conveying belt 7021, so that the medicinal materials can only fall from the side where the first conveying belt 7021 moves forward.

[0029] A material-dropping and shaking mechanism 703 is provided below one end of the first conveyor belt 7021 away from the first tail guard plate 7023. The material-dropping and shaking mechanism 703 includes a second straight vibrator 7031. The second straight vibrator 7031 is connected to a material-dropping trough 7032. After the medicinal materials fall from the first conveyor belt 7021, they fall onto the material-dropping trough 7032. A guardrail 7033 is provided above the material-dropping trough 7032. The guardrail 7033 can prevent the medicinal materials from falling into the material-dropping trough 7032 instead of being scattered around the material-dropping trough 7032 when they fall, and can also prevent the material-dropping trough 7032 from falling into the material-dropping trough 7032. 2 When shaking, the jumping medicinal materials fall around the shaking trough 7032. A sensor 7034 is set on one side of the guardrail 7033. The sensor 7034 is an infrared sensor. The sensor 7034 can monitor the height of the medicinal materials pushed inside the shaking trough 7032 and the height of the medicinal materials jumping after being shaken. If the medicinal materials jump too high or accumulate too much, the sensor 7034 can feedback information to enable the equipment to adjust the vibration effect of the second straight vibrator 7031, or adjust the conveying speed of the upload belt 7015 to slow down the conveying of the medicinal materials.

[0030] The lower end of the shaking trough 7032 is inclined toward the diversion component 8, so the shaking trough 7032 shakes, and the medicinal materials are shaken to the diversion component 8. The diversion component 8 includes a diversion belt 801, and a reflux hole 802 is arranged between the two diversion belts 801, and a second conveyor belt 803 is arranged below the reflux hole 802. Second side guard plates 8032 are arranged on both sides of the second conveyor belt 803, and a second tail guard plate 8031 ​​is arranged at one end of the second conveyor belt 803; the second conveyor belt 803 conveys toward the receiving frame 7011. If too much medicinal materials are shaken off from the shaking trough 7032 to the diversion component 8, the excess medicinal materials will fall onto the second conveyor belt 803 through the reflux hole 802, and the second conveyor belt 803 will convey the medicinal materials to the recycling frame 7011 to avoid too much medicinal materials from pouring into the slicing component 9 at the same time, causing the slicing component 9 to be blocked, thereby ensuring that the slicing of the medicinal materials can be carried out smoothly.

[0031] A diversion baffle 804 is arranged above the diversion belt 801. The medicinal materials can only be input into the slicing assembly 9 after entering the diversion baffle 804, thus ensuring the orderly transportation of the medicinal materials. A feeding rod 904 is arranged at one end of the diversion baffle 804 away from the reflux hole 802. After the medicinal materials are transported from the middle of the two diversion baffles 804, they are sent to the slicing assembly 9 through the feeding rod 904.

[0032] The slicing assembly 9 includes a driving coupling 902, which is connected to a driving accommodating wheel 903. A discharge trough 906 is provided below the driving accommodating wheel 903. One end of the driving coupling 902 is connected to a driving motor 901, so that the driving motor 901 drives the driving coupling 902 to rotate, thereby driving the driving accommodating wheel 903 to rotate. The driving accommodating wheel 903 includes two relatively arranged cone wheels 9031, and a spacing feeding plate 9032 is inserted in the cone wheels 9031. A accommodating space with a V-shaped cross section is formed between the two cone wheels 9031. The spacing feeding plate 9032 is perpendicular to the disc surface of the cone wheel 9031 and divides the accommodating space into a plurality of separate feeding spaces. A blade avoiding groove 903 is provided on the spacing feeding plate 9032. 21. A feeding rod 904 is provided on one side of the cone wheel 9031, and a cutting knife 905 is provided above the cone wheel 9031. When the driving accommodating wheel 903 is rotated, the blade avoiding groove 90321 can just avoid the feeding rod 904 and the cutting knife 905, and the medicinal materials slide from the feeding rod 904 into a separate feeding space. As the driving accommodating wheel 903 rotates, the spacing feeding plate 9032 will also rotate. The spacing feeding plate 9032 pushes the medicinal materials to move toward the cutting knife 905. When the medicinal materials pass through the cutting knife 905, they are cut into slices. Then, as the driving accommodating wheel 903 continues to rotate, when the separate feeding space where the medicinal materials are located turns to the bottom, the medicinal materials fall into the discharging trough 906 and are discharged, thereby completing the process of steaming and cutting the medicinal materials.
