[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine, as an important branch of the unique medicine system in China, has made significant contributions, enabling more people to enjoy the well-being brought by traditional Chinese medicine to health. Therefore, its application range is very wide. Before taking traditional Chinese medicine decoction, the medicinal materials usually need to be decocted in a decocting machine. The process of decocting is to extract the effective components of the medicinal materials into water through heating and boiling, and make it reach a certain concentration so that the human body can fully absorb and exert the medicinal effect.

[0003] In the process of using the existing decocting machines, when pouring the medicinal liquid from the decocting tank, the medicinal residues often flow out together. The mixing of the medicinal residues and the medicinal liquid not only makes the taste of the medicinal liquid rough and bitter, greatly reducing the patient's experience of taking medicine, but more importantly, the medicinal residues will also cause a significant reduction in the medicinal effect of the medicinal liquid. Moreover, the existing decocting machines do not have an intelligent voice operation function, which is not very convenient for the people decocting medicine. Summary of the Invention

[0042] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0043] Embodiment 1:

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 As shown in the figure, an automatic traditional Chinese medicine decocting machine includes:

[0045] Decoction pot 1 and heating mechanism 3;

[0046] A filtering mechanism 2 is installed inside the decoction pot 1. The decoction pot 1 is placed on the top of the heating mechanism 3. A lid-taking mechanism 5 is installed on one side of the top of the heating mechanism 3. Medicine pot buckles 9 are opened on both sides of the top of the decoction pot 1;

[0047] The filtering mechanism 2 includes fixed clamping blocks 21, a first filter screen 22, a second filter screen 23, a limiting mechanism 24 and a positioning groove 25. There are two fixed clamping blocks 21, two limiting mechanisms 24 and two positioning grooves 25. The two fixed clamping blocks 21 are respectively installed inside the two medicine pot buckles 9. The first filter screen 22 is installed between the upper parts of the opposite surfaces of the two fixed clamping blocks 21. The second filter screen 23 is installed between the lower parts of the opposite surfaces of the two fixed clamping blocks 21. The two limiting mechanisms 24 are respectively installed at the tops of the two fixed clamping blocks 21. The two positioning grooves 25 are respectively opened on both sides of the top of the first filter screen 22.

[0048] As can be Figures 1 to 4 seen, support feet 4 are installed at the four corners of the bottom end of the heating mechanism 3. A medicine pot lid 6 is clamped on the lid-taking mechanism 5. A medicine pot handle 7 is installed on the outer wall of the decoction pot 1. A liquid level sensor 8 is installed on one side of the top inner wall of the decoction pot 1. A pot lid handle 10 is installed on the top of the medicine pot lid 6. An exhaust hole 11 is opened on one side of the top of the medicine pot lid 6;

[0049] The limiting mechanism 24 includes a rotating shaft 241, a limiting plate 242, a movable cavity 243, a fixed magnet 244, a positioning bracket 245 and a limiting magnetic plate 246. The rotating shaft 241 is installed at the top end of the fixed clamping block 21 through a bearing. There are two limiting plates 242, which are respectively installed on the upper and lower outer walls of the rotating shaft 241. The movable cavity 243 is opened on the upper side inside the rotating shaft 241. The fixed magnet 244 is installed on the bottom inner wall of the movable cavity 243. The positioning bracket 245 is installed at the top end of the rotating shaft 241, and the limiting magnetic plate 246 is installed on one side of the bottom end of the positioning bracket 245.

[0050] As can be seen from the above, first, insert the fixed clamping block 21 into the medicine can mouth 9, then hold the positioning bracket 245 and drive the rotating shaft 241 to rotate. The rotating shaft 241 drives the two limiting plates 242 thereon to rotate, and the entire filtering mechanism 2 is firmly installed inside the decocting pot 1 through these two limiting plates 242. Then, press the positioning bracket 245 downward in the movable cavity 243 to make the limiting magnetic plate 246 contact and adsorb with the fixed magnet 244, and at the same time ensure that the positioning bracket 245 is inserted into the positioning groove 25 to realize the firm limiting and fixing of the limiting mechanism 24 and the second filter screen 23. When it is necessary to pour out the decocted medicinal liquid, hold the medicine pot handle 7 and tilt the decocting pot 1 so that the medicinal liquid passes through the first filter screen 22 and the second filter screen 23 in sequence, and finally flows into the bowl. Such a design utilizes the first filter screen 22 and the second filter screen 23 with different mesh diameters to filter the medicinal liquid sequentially and fully, effectively removing the impurities and precipitates in the medicinal liquid, improving the clarity and purity of the medicinal liquid. At the same time, it also avoids the medicinal residues flowing out together with the medicinal liquid, preventing them from mixing together and causing the taste of the medicinal liquid to become rough and bitter, thus ensuring that the taste and efficacy of the medicinal liquid are not affected. Such a design not only improves the patient's experience of taking medicine, but also ensures that the efficacy of the medicinal liquid is fully exerted, realizing the effective separation of the medicinal liquid and the medicinal residues.

[0051] Specifically, referring to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the distance between the opposite surfaces of the two limiting plates 242 is greater than the thickness of the fixed clamping block 21. The magnetic pole of the fixed magnet 244 is opposite to the magnetic pole of the limiting magnetic plate 246. The mesh diameter of the first filter screen 22 is larger than the mesh diameter of the second filter screen 23, and both the first filter screen 22 and the second filter screen 23 are made of stainless steel.

[0052] As can be seen from the above, it is ensured that the movement of the limiting plate 242 will not be hindered due to too small a distance. Using the principle of attraction between opposite magnetic poles, the fixed magnet 244 and the limiting magnetic plate 246 can be firmly adsorbed together to realize the filtration of impurities with different particle sizes. The first filter screen 22 first filters out larger impurities, and the second filter screen 23 further filters out smaller impurities. Using the corrosion resistance and durability of stainless steel, the service life and filtration effect of the filter screen are guaranteed.

[0053] Example Two:

[0054] Reference Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the heating mechanism 3 includes a heating base 31, a temperature sensor 32, a heating plate 33, a positioning ring 34, and a wire 35. The temperature sensor 32 is installed in the middle of the top end of the heating base 31. The heating plate 33 is installed on the top end of the heating base 31. The positioning ring 34 is installed around the top end of the heating base 31. The wire 35 is installed at one end of the heating base 31;

[0055] A display screen 36 is installed in the middle of the outer wall of the heating base 31. A function on / off key 37 and an increase key 38 are arranged on one side of the outer wall of the heating base 31. A decrease key 39 and a reservation key 310 are arranged on the other side of the outer wall of the heating base 31. A plurality of indicator lights 311 are arranged on the upper part of the outer wall of the heating base 31;

[0056] The lid-removing mechanism 5 includes a support frame 51, a driver 52, an adjusting screw 53, a moving plate 54, and a fixing port 55. The support frame 51 is installed on the top end of the heating base 31. The driver 52 is installed on the top end of the support frame 51. The adjusting screw 53 is installed between the inner walls on both sides of the support frame 51 through bearings. The moving plate 54 is installed on the outer surface of the adjusting screw 53. The fixing port 55 is opened on one side of the top end of the moving plate 54.

[0057] As can be seen from the above, first, place the decocting pot 1 on the heating plate 33, and ensure that the decocting pot 1 can be accurately positioned on the heating base 31 through the positioning ring 34 to prevent the decocting pot 1 from shifting or tilting during the decocting process, thereby improving the uniformity and safety of heating. Then, supply power to the heating base 31 and the heating plate 33 through the wire 35, so that the heating plate 33 evenly heats the traditional Chinese medicine in the decocting pot 1. At the same time, the temperature sensor 32 can monitor the temperature during the heating process in real time. Finally, the user presses the function on / off key 37 and observes the lit indicator lights 311 to select the required decocting function. These indicator lights 311 are status lights showing function selection. That is, with the help of multiple function keys and indicator lights 311, this decocting machine has various functions such as prior decocting, automatic decocting, strong fire, second / third decocting, warming medicine, slow fire, stewing soup, later addition, and reservation, thereby expanding the applicable range of the decocting machine and meeting the decocting requirements for traditional Chinese medicine, enabling users to achieve automatic and intelligent decocting control of traditional Chinese medicine, and further enabling this automatic decocting machine to greatly reduce manual operation, improve the decocting speed, thus meeting the needs of a large number of prescriptions, and making the decocting operation more convenient and fast, further improving work efficiency. When the traditional Chinese medicine is decocted, start the driver 52 to drive the adjusting screw 53 to rotate, and drive the moving plate 54 to move stably under the guiding and limiting action of the support frame 51. Then, the pot cover handle 10 drives the medicine pot cover 6 to move upward steadily, and the medicine pot cover 6 can be easily removed from the decocting pot 1. In this way, the risk of scalding caused by the overheated medicine pot cover 6 during the decocting process is avoided, and it is also conducive to quickly pouring out the decocted traditional Chinese medicine from the decocting pot 1.

[0058] Preferably, referring to Figures 5 to 7 As shown, both the moving plate 54 and the fixed port 55 are set as convex structures. The heating base 31 is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 32 and the liquid level sensor 8. A plurality of indicator lights 311 are sequentially set as power supply, prior decocting, automatic decocting, strong fire, second / third decocting, warming medicine, slow fire, stewing soup, later addition, and reservation from left to right.

[0059] As can be seen from the above, it is convenient to install the medicine pot cover 6 in the moving plate 54, and it is also convenient to remove the medicine pot cover 6 through the fixed port 55, realizing signal transmission and control between the heating base 31 and the temperature sensor 32 and the liquid level sensor 8, providing precise heating control and liquid level monitoring functions, ensuring the automation and intelligence of the decocting process, and intuitively showing the current state and options of the decocting machine to the user through the display of the indicator lights 311. There are through holes provided on the heating base 31, and through the through holes, the heating base 31 can receive voice commands.

[0064] The temperature sensing unit is used to monitor the temperature in the decocting container in real time to ensure that decocting is carried out within an appropriate temperature range. The liquid level sensing unit is used to monitor the liquid level in the decocting container to prevent the liquid medicine from overflowing or dry burning;

[0065] The data processing unit is used to preprocess the data collected by the monitoring end, such as filtering, denoising, etc. The data analysis unit is used to analyze the processed data to evaluate the stability and efficiency of the decocting process. The data recording unit is used to store the analyzed data in a database for subsequent query, report generation and quality traceability;

[0066] The automatic control unit is used to automatically control the operation of the decocting machine according to preset rules and algorithms. The temperature control unit is used to automatically adjust the output power of the heating device according to the data provided by the temperature sensing device.

[0068] The voice control end is used to perform intelligent voice operations, which is convenient for the elderly and those with temporarily occupied hands to operate and is more intelligent.

[0069] As can be seen from the above, for the entire intelligent control system, its monitoring end includes a temperature sensing unit and a liquid level sensing unit. The temperature sensing unit prevents the influence of too high or too low temperature on the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine, ensuring the quality of decocting. The liquid level sensing unit ensures the safety and stability of the decocting process, preventing waste of liquid medicine or damage to the equipment. Moreover, through these two sensing units, equipment damage and fire caused by dry burning and overheating can be prevented, realizing the function of automatic power-off to prevent dry burning, improving the safety of using the decocting pot. The data processing unit improves the accuracy and reliability of data, providing a basis for subsequent data analysis and control.

The temperature control unit maintains the temperature in the decocting container within a preset range, ensuring that the decocting process is carried out at an appropriate temperature and improving the quality of decocting. The time control unit can ensure the integrity and effectiveness of the decocting program, preventing the influence of too long or too short decocting time on the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine and ensuring the quality of decocting. The operation unit allows users to set decocting parameters, start / stop the decocting process, etc., facilitating users to operate and control the decocting machine. The feedback unit helps users understand the progress and status of the decocting process, improving user satisfaction. The voice prompt unit can voice broadcast the completion of decocting, abnormal temperature, etc., enhancing the user experience and improving the usability and friendliness of the system. The voice control end is designed specifically to achieve intelligent voice operation, greatly facilitating the elderly and those whose hands are temporarily inconvenient and unable to perform manual operations, improving the convenience of operation. In summary, this intelligent control system plays an important role in ensuring the safety, stability, efficiency and quality of the decocting process.

[0070] Application example:

[0071] This design is mainly applied to environments that require efficient and precise decocting of traditional Chinese medicine, such as patients' homes, traditional Chinese medicine clinics and hospital traditional Chinese medicine pharmacies. In this design, by setting the filtering mechanism 2, the medicinal residues in the liquid medicine can be fully filtered, thus avoiding the adverse effects of medicinal residues on the taste and efficacy of the liquid medicine, ensuring that patients can obtain pure and effective liquid medicine. In addition, the equipped heating mechanism 3 not only has the functions of accurately controlling temperature and time, but also can realize the automatic intelligent decocting of traditional Chinese medicine, which helps to simulate the control of the cooking fire in the traditional decocting process, ensuring that the effective components of the medicinal materials are fully decocted. At the same time, the design of the lid removing mechanism 5 can mechanically and automatically remove the pot lid 6, effectively preventing burns that may be caused by too high temperature when manually removing the lid, improving the safety of operation and reducing the risk of injury to the staff. Finally, through the set intelligent control system, the overall intelligent control of the decocting process can be realized, and it also has the function of intelligent voice operation, which is very convenient for people decocting medicine to use, further improving the decocting effect.
