The moxa quantitative feeding mechanism in the moxa stick production process is one of the key equipment in the moxa stick production line, mainly used to accurately control the supply amount of moxa to ensure the quality stability and production efficiency of moxa sticks. Moxa sticks are a common moxibustion material, usually made of moxa wrapped in paper tubes or other shells. In order to ensure the uniformity and consistency of moxa sticks, the quantitative supply of moxa is particularly important.

As the moxa in the slots gradually increases, the moxa is squeezed in the sealed space formed by the discharging device and the partition plate and becomes compact. As the moxa continues to enter, the compacted moxa will activate the discharging device, so that the discharging device pushes the compacted moxa into the discharging table, and the discharging table guides the moxa into the molding device for molding operation.

[0007] As a further solution of the present invention: a discharging slope is provided at one end of the discharging platform, a second partition plate is fixedly connected to the discharging slope, and the second partition plate is aligned with the first partition plate.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In the present invention, the empty slot is evenly divided into multiple groups of slots by a partition plate in the quantitative component, and each slot is of the same size. The moxa is collected in these slots. Since the slots have the same specifications, the amount of moxa contained in each slot is the same, thereby accurately realizing the quantitative function of the moxa being consistent in quantity each time it is discharged from the storage box. One end of each group of partition plates is fixedly connected to a cutting blade. When the feeding device pushes the moxa in the storage box toward the quantitative component, the moxa contacts the cutting blade. Under the thrust of the feeding device, the entangled and agglomerated moxa can be quickly cut and dispersed. The dispersed moxa is easier to enter the slots, and the molding effect of the moxa in subsequent molding operations can be improved. As the moxa in the slots gradually increases, the moxa is squeezed and becomes compacted in the sealed space formed by the discharging device and the partition plate. When the moxa is discharged, the compacted state can not only ensure the consistency of the discharge amount each time, but also enable the moxa to enter the discharging table and the molding device in a more regular form, which is conducive to improving the quality and efficiency of molding. 2. In the present invention, by setting the contact surface between the inner plate and the guide block and the storage box in the feeding device as an arc surface, and always keeping a close fit under the action of the spring 1, the leakage and residue of moxa in the feeding process can be minimized to the greatest extent, ensuring that the moxa can be fully transported to the quantitative component, improving the utilization rate of moxa, and reducing the waste of raw materials. The combination of the telescopic rod 1 and the spring 1 enables the inner plate to have a self-adaptive adjustment function. When the resistance changes during the feeding process, such as different moxa stacking densities or slight blockage in the feeding channel, the inner plate can adjust its own position and stress state through the telescopic rod 1 and the elastic deformation of the spring 1, thereby ensuring the stability and uniformity of the feeding and reducing the problem of uneven feeding caused by interference from external factors. 3. In the present invention, the discharging device can automatically trigger the operation according to the accumulation and extrusion of moxa in the quantitative component, without the need for additional complex control devices. When the moxa is compacted to a certain extent, it naturally overcomes the adsorption force of the magnetic block and the elastic force of the spring to start the action, thereby realizing the automation of the discharging process. This reduces the cost of manual intervention, improves the working efficiency of the entire feeding mechanism, and also reduces the influence of human factors on the discharging amount and discharging time. The dividing head can perform a dividing operation on the compacted moxa during rotation, so that the discharged moxa can enter the discharging table in a suitable form and size. This dividing function helps to improve the molding effect of moxa in the molding device, reduce problems in the molding process, such as uneven density and irregular shape of the molded products, and improve the quality of the molded products. Through the alternating action of multiple groups of dividing heads, the discharging device realizes a cyclic and orderly discharging process. After the previous group of dividing heads completes the discharging action, the next group of dividing heads can take over in time, thereby ensuring the continuous and stable supply of moxa, improving the working continuity of the entire feeding mechanism, and enabling the molding device to produce continuously and stably.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances. The following is an explanation of an embodiment of the present invention based on the overall structure of the present invention.

[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 3In an embodiment of the present invention, a quantitative feeding mechanism of moxa comprises: a storage box 1 for storing moxa, a discharging platform 2 for guiding the taken moxa to a forming device is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the storage box 1, a quantitative component 3 is fixedly arranged in the storage box 1 to make the amount of moxa discharged from the storage box 1 consistent each time, a feeding device 4 is rotatably arranged in the storage box 1 to feed the moxa in the storage box 1 into the quantitative component 3, a motor 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the storage box 1, an output end of the motor 6 passes through the storage box 1, and is fixedly connected to the feeding device 4, and a discharging device 5 is arranged on the storage box 1 to push the moxa in the quantitative component 3 into the discharging platform 2; The quantitative component 3 includes a guide block 31 fixedly connected to the storage box 1, the guide block 31 is a quarter-cylindrical shape, and an empty slot 32 is provided at the bottom of the guide block 31. The empty slot 32 is also a quarter-cylindrical shape. A partition plate 33 is fixedly connected in the empty slot 32 to evenly divide the empty slot 32 into multiple groups and collect the moxa. The partition plates 33 are provided with multiple groups and are evenly distributed in the empty slot 32. One end of each group of partition plates 33 is fixedly connected to a group of cutting blades 34 for cutting and dispersing the entangled and agglomerated moxa. A discharging slope 21 is provided at one end of the discharging platform 2, and a partition plate 22 is fixedly connected to the discharging slope 21. The partition plates 22 are provided with multiple groups and are evenly distributed on the discharging slope 21. Each group of partition plates 22 and a group of partition plates 33 are aligned and distributed; Among them, when the motor 6 drives the feeding device 4 to rotate and pushes the moxa in the storage box 1 to the quantitative component 3, the pushed moxa contacts the cutting blade 34, and under the thrust of the feeding device 4, the entangled and agglomerated moxa is quickly dispersed and enters different slots formed by multiple groups of partition plates 33. As the moxa in the slots gradually increases, the moxa is squeezed in the sealed space formed by the discharging device 5 and the partition plate 33 and becomes compacted. As the moxa continues to enter, the compacted moxa activates the discharging device 5, so that the discharging device 5 pushes the compacted moxa into the discharging table 2, so that the discharging table 2 guides the moxa into the molding device for molding operation. Since the slots of the moxa in the quantitative component 3 are of the same size and the moxa is squeezed into a compact state and then discharged, the amount of moxa discharged each time and in each group of slots is the same.

[0022] Reference Figures 4 to 5The feeding device 4 includes a rotating shaft 41 rotatably connected to the storage box 1, and an outer plate 42 is fixedly connected to the side end of the rotating shaft 41. The outer plates 42 are arranged in five groups and are evenly distributed on the side end of the rotating shaft 41. A group of cavities 46 are opened at one end of each group of outer plates 42, and an inner plate 43 is slidably inserted in the cavity 46. The contact surface between the inner plate 43 and the guide block 31 and the storage box 1 is an arc surface. The length of the inner plate 43 is less than the length of the outer plate 42. A plurality of groups of telescopic rods 44 are fixedly connected to one end of each group of inner plates 43. The plurality of groups of telescopic rods 44 are evenly distributed on one end of the inner plate 43. The plurality of groups of telescopic rods 44 are arranged in the cavity 46, and one end of the telescopic rod 44 is fixedly connected to the outer plate 42. A spring 45 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 44, and one end of the spring 45 abuts against the inner plate 43. The other end of the outer plate 42 abuts against the inner wall of the cavity 46. When in use, the motor 6 is started, and the output end of the motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 41 of the feeding device 4 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 41 rotates, the outer plate 42 rotates synchronously therewith. During the rotation process, the outer plate 42 drives the inner plate 43 to move and preliminarily pushes the moxa. A cavity 46 is opened at one end of each group of outer plates 42, and an inner plate 43 is slidably inserted in the cavity 46. The inner plate 43 is connected to the outer plate 42 through a plurality of groups of telescopic rods 44 fixedly connected at one end and a spring 45 sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 44. Under the elastic action of the spring 45, the inner plate 43 is always in close contact with the material guide block 31 and the storage box 1. When the rotating shaft 41 rotates continuously, the inner plate 43 continuously pushes the moxa in the storage box 1 to the quantitative component 3.

[0023] The above scheme is adopted: the rotating shaft 41 is driven to rotate by the motor 6, which drives multiple groups of outer plates 42 and inner plates 43 to rotate synchronously, so that the moxa in the storage box 1 can be continuously and efficiently transported to the quantitative component 3, thereby improving the working efficiency of the entire feeding mechanism. The contact surface between the inner plate 43 and the guide block 31 and the storage box 1 adopts an arc surface design, and always maintains a close fit under the action of the spring 45, which can minimize the leakage and residue of moxa during the feeding process, ensure that the moxa can be fully transported to the quantitative component 3, and improve the utilization rate of moxa. The combination of the telescopic rod 44 and the spring 45 makes the inner plate 43 have the function of adaptive adjustment. When encountering changes in resistance during the feeding process, the inner plate 43 can adjust its own position and stress state through the extension and contraction of the telescopic rod 44 and the elastic deformation of the spring 45, thereby ensuring the stability and uniformity of the feeding and reducing the problem of uneven feeding caused by interference from external factors.

[0024] Reference Figures 6 to 9The discharging device 5 includes a magnetic block 51 embedded in the inner wall of the empty slot 32, and the magnetic block 51 is provided with multiple groups, which are evenly distributed from the top of the empty slot 32, and the magnetism of the multiple groups of magnetic blocks 51 increases step by step from the top of the empty slot 32. The multiple groups of magnetic blocks 51 with gradually increasing magnetism are a set, and a set of magnetic blocks 51 is provided between every two groups of partition plates 33. A magnetic block 2 52 is embedded in the side end of the partition plate 33. The magnetic block 2 52 is provided with multiple groups, which are evenly distributed on the side end of the partition plate 33, and the magnetism of the multiple groups of magnetic blocks 2 52 increases step by step from top to bottom. The magnetism of the magnetic block 2 52 at the uppermost end of the partition plate 33 is greater than the magnetism of the magnetic block 51 at the lowermost end of the inner wall of the empty slot 32. The multiple groups of magnetic blocks 2 52 with gradually increasing magnetism are a set, and each group A set of magnetic blocks 2 52 are arranged on both sides of the partition plate 1 33. The discharging device 5 also includes a connecting shaft 53 fixedly connected to the storage box 1. A rotating ring 57 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the connecting shaft 53. There are multiple groups of rotating rings 57. Each group of rotating rings 57 is arranged between two groups of partition plates 1 33. A telescopic rod 2 54 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating ring 57. Four groups of telescopic rods 2 54 are arranged on the outer side of each group of rotating rings 57. The four groups of telescopic rods 2 54 are distributed at ninety degrees. A group of springs 2 55 is arranged inside each group of telescopic rods 2 54. The upper and lower ends of the springs 2 55 are respectively abutted against the upper and lower ends inside the telescopic rod 2 54. A dividing head 56 is fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod 2 54. The dividing head 56 and the telescopic rod 2 54 are sickle-shaped. The outer end of the dividing head 56 is connected to the magnetic block 1 5 1 magnetic adsorption, the side end of the dividing head 56 is magnetically adsorbed with the magnetic block 52, a connecting groove 58 is opened at the bottom of the storage box 1, and the connecting groove 58 is arranged below the guide block 31. The discharge slope 21 is connected with the empty groove 32 through the connecting groove 58. When the motor 6 drives the feeding device 4 to continuously feed the moxa into the slot formed by multiple groups of partition plates 33, the moxa in the slot gradually increases, and the moxa that enters later squeezes the moxa that enters first, so that the moxa becomes compacted in the sealed space formed by the discharge device 5 and the partition plate 33. As the moxa increases, its squeezing force on the dividing head 56 also increases. When the squeezing force of the moxa exceeds the adsorption force of the dividing head 56 and the magnetic block and the elastic force of the spring 55 in the telescopic rod 54, the compacted moxa pushes the dividing head 56 to move. The cutting head 56 moves toward the connecting groove 58 until it is pushed above the connecting groove 58. At this time, a group of cutting heads 56 located at the top of the empty groove 32 rotates around the connecting shaft 53 under the joint action of the magnetic block 1 51 and the magnetic block 2 52 whose magnetism changes step by step. Because the magnetic force between magnets is related to the distance and the magnitude of the magnetism, the closer the distance and the stronger the magnetism, the greater the magnetic force. Therefore, the cutting head 56 will gradually approach the magnetic block 1 51 or the magnetic block 2 52 with stronger magnetism. The magnetic block 1 51 with stronger magnetism has a greater attraction for the cutting head 56, so that the cutting head 56 has a component force to approach the inner wall of the empty groove 32. At the same time, the cutting head 56 moves away from the upper magnetic block 1 51 with weaker magnetism. The magnetic force of the upper magnetic block 1 51 is reduced, breaking the vertical force balance.The segmentation heads 56 are further urged to move downward and toward the inner wall of the empty slot 32 and rotate around the connecting shaft 53 until the tip of the segmentation heads 56 abuts against the bottom of the storage box 1. During the rotation, the tip of the segmentation heads 56 separates the moxa wool squeezed tightly in the slot of the quantitative component 3.

[0025] The above scheme is adopted: the discharging device 5 can automatically trigger the operation according to the accumulation and extrusion of the moxa in the quantitative component 3, without the need for additional complex control devices. When the moxa is compacted to a certain extent, it naturally overcomes the adsorption force of the magnetic block and the elastic force of the spring and starts to move, thereby realizing the automation of the discharging process, reducing the cost of manual intervention, and improving the working efficiency of the entire feeding mechanism. The dividing head 56 can separate the compacted moxa during the rotation process, so that the discharged moxa can enter the discharging table 2 in a suitable shape and size, which is convenient for subsequent molding operations. This separation function helps to improve the molding effect of the moxa in the molding device and reduce problems in the molding process.

[0026] The working principle of the present invention is: when in use, first start the motor 6, and its output end drives the rotating shaft 41 of the feeding device 4 to rotate, and the five groups of outer plates 42 evenly distributed on the side ends of the rotating shaft 41 rotate synchronously therewith, and the inner plate 43 in the outer plate 42 is always in close contact with the guide block 31 and the storage box 1 under the elastic action of the spring 45, and the contact surface between the inner plate 43 and the guide block 31 and the storage box 1 is designed to be an arc surface, which greatly improves the fit, and when the rotating shaft 41 continues to rotate, the inner plate 43 will continuously push the moxa in the storage box 1 to the quantitative component 3, and after the moxa reaches the quantitative component 3, it first contacts with the cutting blade 34, and under the strong thrust of the feeding device 4, the moxa that was originally entangled and agglomerated is quickly cut and dispersed, and then the dispersed moxa smoothly enters the In each slot formed by multiple groups of partition plates 33, since these slots are of the same size, the amount of moxa contained in each slot is naturally the same, thereby accurately realizing the quantitative function. As time goes by, the moxa in the slot continues to increase, and the moxa that continues to enter will squeeze the moxa that entered earlier, so that the moxa is gradually squeezed and compacted in the sealed space formed by the discharging device 5 and the partition plates 33. When the moxa in the slot is compacted to a certain extent, the discharging device 5 will be triggered to start working. The dividing head 56 of the discharging device 5 is initially in a magnetic adsorption state with the magnetic block 52. As the degree of extrusion of the moxa continues to increase, the external force borne by the dividing head 56 also gradually increases. When the extrusion force of the moxa exceeds the adsorption force between the dividing head 56 and the magnetic block and the spring 2 in the telescopic rod 54, the external force exerted on the dividing head 56 also gradually increases. When the elastic force of 55 is applied, the compacted moxa begins to move toward the connecting groove 58 until the dividing head 56 is pushed above the connecting groove 58. At this time, a group of dividing heads 56 located at the top of the empty groove 32 rotates around the connecting shaft 53 under the joint action of the magnetic block 1 51 and the magnetic block 2 52 whose magnetism changes step by step, so that the group of dividing heads 56 gradually approach the magnetic block 1 51 or the magnetic block 2 52 with stronger magnetism. According to the relationship between the magnetic force, distance and magnetism between magnets, the closer the distance and the stronger the magnetism, the greater the magnetic force. At this time, the magnetic block 1 51 with stronger magnetism will produce a greater attraction to the dividing head 56, and the direction of this attraction roughly points to the position where the magnetic block 1 51 is located. Since the magnetic block 1 51 is distributed on the inner wall of the empty groove 32, the attraction will have a The force component of the head 56 approaches the inner wall of the empty slot 32. At the same time, the dividing head 56 will move away from the upper magnetic block 51 with weaker magnetism, and the attraction between the dividing head 56 and these magnetic blocks 51 will gradually decrease. Originally in the initial position, the magnetic force between the upper magnetic block 51 and the dividing head 56 plays a role in maintaining the position of the dividing head 56. When the dividing head 56 moves, the reduction of the magnetic force of the upper magnetic block 51 breaks the force balance of the dividing head 56 in the vertical direction, further prompting the dividing head 56 to move downward and toward the inner wall of the empty slot 32, and rotate around the connecting shaft 53 until the tip of the group of dividing heads 56 abuts against the bottom end of the storage box 1. During the rotation, the tip of the dividing head 56 separates the moxa that is squeezed tightly in the slot of the quantitative component 3. At the same time,The next group of dividing heads 56 moves to the top of the empty slot 32, but because the tip of the previous group of dividing heads 56 has abutted against the bottom end of the storage box 1, the next group of dividing heads 56 cannot rotate under the action of the magnetic blocks 1 51 and 2, thereby maintaining the current state. The telescopic rod 2 54 and the dividing head 56 that were previously pushed to the top of the connecting slot 58 smoothly pass through the connecting slot 58 during the rotation process, and are restored to their initial length under the action of the spring 2 55 in the telescopic rod 2 54. Afterwards, with the continuous operation of the feeding device 4, the moxa is again abutted against the outer side of the dividing head 56 and compacted, thereby pushing the dividing head 56 to move toward the connecting slot 58. During the movement, the moxa that is separated by the tip of the dividing head 56 and located on the inner side of the dividing head 56 will be ahead of the dividing head. 56 moves to the top of the connecting groove 58, and then falls on the discharge slope 21 of the discharge platform 2 under the action of gravity, and is finally introduced into the forming device; the empty groove 32 is evenly divided into a plurality of groups of slots by the partition plate 33 in the quantitative component 3, each slot is of the same size, and the moxa is collected in these slots. Due to the same slot specifications, the amount of moxa contained in each slot is the same, thereby accurately realizing the quantitative function of consistent quantity of moxa every time it is discharged from the storage box 1. A cutting blade 34 is fixedly connected to one end of each group of partition plates 33. When the feeding device 4 pushes the moxa in the storage box 1 toward the quantitative component 3, the moxa contacts the cutting blade 34. Under the thrust of the feeding device 4, the entangled and agglomerated moxa can be quickly cut and dispersed, and the dispersed moxa is easier to The moxa is easy to enter the slot and can improve the molding effect of moxa in subsequent molding operations. As the moxa in the slot gradually increases, the moxa is squeezed and becomes compacted in the sealed space formed by the discharging device 5 and the partition plate 33. The moxa in this compacted state can not only ensure the consistency of the discharge amount each time when discharged, but also enable the moxa to enter the discharging table 2 and the molding device in a more regular form, which is beneficial to improving the molding quality and efficiency. By setting the contact surface between the inner plate 43 in the feeding device 4 and the guide block 31 and the storage box 1 to an arc surface, and always maintaining a close fit under the action of a spring 45, the leakage and residue of moxa in the feeding process can be minimized to the greatest extent, ensuring that the moxa can be fully transported to the quantitative component 3, thereby improving the utilization rate of moxa and reducing the raw material consumption. Waste, the combination of telescopic rod 44 and spring 45 makes the inner plate 43 have the function of adaptive adjustment. When the resistance changes during the feeding process, such as different stacking density of moxa or slight blockage in the feeding channel, the inner plate 43 can adjust its own position and stress state through the expansion and contraction of telescopic rod 44 and elastic deformation of spring 45, so as to ensure the stability and uniformity of feeding, and reduce the problem of uneven feeding caused by external interference. The discharge device 5 can automatically trigger the work according to the accumulation and extrusion of moxa in the quantitative component 3, without the need for additional complex control devices. When the moxa is compacted to a certain extent, it naturally overcomes the adsorption force of the magnetic block and the elastic force of the spring to start the action, thereby realizing the automation of the discharge process, which reduces the cost of manual intervention.The working efficiency of the entire feeding mechanism is improved, and the influence of human factors on the discharge volume and discharge time is also reduced. The dividing head 56 can separate the tightly squeezed moxa during the rotation process, so that the discharged moxa can enter the discharge table 2 in a suitable shape and size. This separation function helps to improve the molding effect of the moxa in the molding device and reduce problems in the molding process, such as uneven density and irregular shape of the molded products, thereby improving the quality of the molded products. Through the alternating action of multiple groups of dividing heads 56, the discharging device 5 realizes a cyclic and orderly discharging process. After the previous group of dividing heads 56 completes the discharging action, the next group of dividing heads 56 can take over in time, ensuring the continuous and stable supply of moxa, improving the working continuity of the entire feeding mechanism, and enabling the molding device to produce continuously and stably.
