Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sterilization of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, and specifically relates to a sterilization box for processing traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Technique

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces refer to traditional Chinese medicinal materials after processing and preparation. After being prepared, the medicinal effect components of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces are more stable, the medicinal effects are clear, which is convenient for dispensing and dosage control according to the condition of the disease, and can be directly used in traditional Chinese medicine clinical practice without the need for a complex decocting process like traditional Chinese medicinal materials, and is more convenient and fast to use; During the production, processing, storage and transportation of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, they are easily contaminated by microorganisms (such as bacteria, molds, yeasts, etc.) in the environment. The reproduction of microorganisms will cause the deterioration of the decoction pieces, such as mildew, discoloration, caking, generation of peculiar smells, etc. It will not only reduce the quality of the decoction pieces, but may also produce toxic metabolites. These toxins have serious harm to human health, may cause acute or chronic poisoning, and even cancer. Therefore, it is necessary to sterilize traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces during processing; When sterilizing traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, a sterilization box is usually used for treatment. However, when the current sterilization box is in use, it cannot work continuously and can only be processed in batches, with slow working efficiency. And when sterilizing traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, they are mainly placed on the carrier rack and sterilized only by simple irradiation. It is often difficult to achieve uniform sterilization of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Because the decoction pieces are stacked together, the local area may not be thoroughly sterilized due to uneven heating, resulting in an unsatisfactory sterilization effect.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0019] The following will clearly and completely introduce the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1-7, A traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece processing sterilization box, including a support frame 1 and a feeding box 11 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. A sterilization component 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1, and one side of the sterilization component 2 abuts against the feeding box 11. A microwave sterilizer for sterilizing traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces is fixedly connected in the sterilization component 2. The discharge end of the feeding box 11 is communicated with the inside of the sterilization component 2. A processing component for assisting in the sterilization of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces is arranged in the sterilization component 2. The processing component includes a driving component 3 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the sterilization component 2, a decoction piece placing component 4 fixedly connected in the sterilization component 2, and a turning component 5 rotatably connected to one side of the driving component 3. And the turning component 5 is located directly above the microwave sterilizer; Specifically, during use, first add the washed and sliced traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces into the feeding box 11. When sterilizing the traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, put the traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces in the feeding box 11 into the decoction piece placing component 4 in the sterilization component 2. At the same time, start the microwave sterilizer and the driving component 3 in the sterilization component 2. Drive the decoction piece placing component 4 to rotate through the driving component 3, so that the decoction piece placing component 4 rotates above the microwave sterilizer. The microwave magnetic field generated by the microwave sterilizer denatures the proteins of bacteria and microorganisms and inactivates the enzymes, thereby being inhibited or killed; When the decoction piece placing component 4 moves above the microwave sterilizer for sterilization work, the turning component 5 is started at the same time, and the traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces on the decoction piece placing component 4 are turned through the turning component 5 to ensure the sterilization effect; The microwave sterilization method is already relatively common in this field, so the specific sterilization principle and process will not be described in detail here.

[0021] In this embodiment, the sterilization component 2 includes a protective box 21. The protective box 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. A sterilization box main body 22 is fixedly connected in the protective box 21. The driving component 3 is rotatably connected to the top of the sterilization box main body 22. The decoction piece placing component 4 and the turning component 5 are both arranged inside the sterilization box main body 22. An inlet 23 is also opened at the top of the sterilization box main body 22. The sterilization box main body 22 is communicated with the feeding box 11 through the inlet 23. A communication port 24 is also opened on the arc surface of the sterilization box main body 22. A discharge port 27 with the same position as the communication port 24 is opened on one side of the protective box 21 close to the communication port 24. A discharge plate 12 is fixedly connected to the discharge port 27, and one end of the discharge plate 12 close to the sterilization box main body 22 passes through the communication port 24 and is communicated with the inside of the sterilization box main body 22; Specifically, during use, the traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces will first fall through the inlet 23 and land on the decoction piece placing component 4 for sterilization work. Driven by the driving component 3, the decoction piece placing component 4 can rotate inside the sterilization box main body 22. When the sterilization work is completed, the decoction piece placing component 4 rotates to the communication port 24 at the same time, and the sterilized traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces fall through the communication port 24 and the discharge port 27 for subsequent processing work.

[0022] In this embodiment, the driving assembly 3 includes a driving motor 31, the driving motor 31 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the protection box 21, the output end of the driving motor 31 is fixedly connected with a driving disc 32 through a coupling, the driving disc 32 is rotatably connected to the top of the sterilization box body 22, the top of the sterilization box body 22 is also rotatably connected with an adjusting disc 34, and a connecting seat 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjusting disc 34, the connecting seat 36 is fixed to the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 in the sterilization box body 22, a plurality of uniformly distributed driving grooves 35 are formed in the adjusting disc 34, a driving shaft 33 is also fixedly connected to the top of the driving disc 32, and the driving shaft 33 is located at an eccentric position on the driving disc 32, the driving shaft 33 is slidably clamped in an adjacent driving groove 35, wherein, the bottom of the driving disc 32 is also fixedly connected with a driving gear 37 through a connecting shaft, and the driving gear 37 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top of the sterilization box body 22, the driving gear 37 is in transmission connection with the turning assembly 5; Specifically, when in use, after the Chinese herbal medicine pieces fall on the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4, start the microwave sterilizer and the driving motor 31, the microwave sterilizer generates a microwave magnetic field to inactivate bacteria or microorganisms. When the driving motor 31 is started, the driving motor 31 drives the driving disc 32 to rotate through the coupling, the driving shaft 33 installed on the driving disc 32 rotates synchronously with the driving disc 32 and slides in the driving groove 35 on the adjusting disc 34. When the driving shaft 33 slides in one of the driving grooves 35, it will simultaneously push the adjusting disc 34 to rotate, and the adjusting disc 34 drives the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 to rotate at the same time, so that the position of the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 changes; When the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 moves to the lower part of the turning assembly 5 driven by the adjusting disc 34, at this time, the driving shaft 33 moves out of one of the driving grooves 35 and moves to another driving groove 35. During this time, the driving shaft 33 is not in contact with the driving groove 35, so the adjusting disc 34 is in a stopped state, and at the same time, the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 is kept stopped, while the driving disc 32 continuously drives the driving shaft 33 to rotate, and the driving disc 32 drives the turning assembly 5 to start at the same time, so that the turning assembly 5 turns the Chinese herbal medicine pieces on the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 to ensure the sterilization effect; When the driving shaft 33 contacts the driving groove 35 again, it will drive the adjusting disc 34 to rotate again, so that the position of the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 changes. At this time, the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 will move to the communication port 24 and turn over to pour out the sterilized Chinese herbal medicine pieces. When the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 rotates again, it will rotate to the lower part of the feeding port 23 again to carry out a new round of material receiving and sterilization work; By setting the intermittent rotation mode, the Chinese herbal medicine placing assembly 4 can stay briefly in each link, ensuring the effectiveness of each process.

[0023] In this embodiment, the decoction piece placement assembly 4 includes a fixed cylinder 41. The two ends of the fixed cylinder 41 are respectively fixed to the inner walls of the top and bottom of the sterilization box body 22. A rotating cylinder 43 is rotatably connected in the fixed cylinder 41, and the rotating cylinder 43 penetrates through the top of the fixed cylinder 41 and is fixed to the connecting seat 36. A plurality of evenly distributed connecting cylinders 44 are slidably connected to the arc surface of the rotating cylinder 43. One end of each connecting cylinder 44 away from the rotating cylinder 43 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 45. One end of the connecting rod 45 away from the connecting cylinder 44 is fixedly connected to a placement plate 46, and a plurality of evenly distributed ventilation holes 49 are formed in the placement plate 46. Traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces are placed in the placement plate 46. One side of the placement plate 46 away from the connecting rod 45 is also fixedly connected to a synchronous gear 47 through a connecting shaft. An annular groove 25 for the synchronous gear 47 to slide is formed in the inner wall of the sterilization box body 22. Two groups of adjusting tooth groups 26 are also installed on the top of the annular groove 25. One group of adjusting tooth groups 26 is fixedly connected to the annular groove 25 below the feed port 23, and the other group of adjusting tooth groups 26 is fixedly connected to the annular groove 25 above the communication port 24. A plurality of synchronous gears 47 are sequentially engaged with the two groups of adjusting tooth groups 26. A limiting groove 48 with the same position as the plurality of connecting cylinders 44 is also formed in the arc surface of the rotating cylinder 43. One side of each of the plurality of connecting cylinders 44 close to the limiting groove 48 is respectively slidably connected in the adjacent limiting groove 48. An adjusting groove 42 is also formed in the fixed cylinder 41. The arc surfaces of the plurality of connecting cylinders 44 are all slidably connected in the adjusting groove 42; Specifically, during use, in the initial state, two of the placement plates 46 are respectively located below the feed port 23 and the turning assembly 5, and the other placement plate 46 is located above the communication port 24. When the traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces enter the sterilization box body 22 through the feeding box 11, they will first fall on the placement plate 46 located below the feed port 23 through the feed port 23. At this time, the microwave sterilizer and the driving motor 31 are started simultaneously. The microwave sterilizer performs the sterilization work. When the driving motor 31 is started, it drives the adjusting disk 34 to rotate through the driving disk 32 and the driving shaft 33, so that the adjusting disk 34 drives the rotating cylinder 43 to rotate in the fixed cylinder 41. When the rotating cylinder 43 rotates, it simultaneously drives the positions of a plurality of placement plates 46 to change, so that the placement plate 46 located below the feed port 23 moves to below the turning assembly 5, and the placement plate 46 located above the communication port 24 moves to below the feed port 23. After the rotating cylinder 43 makes one rotation, the driving shaft 33 is disengaged from the driving groove 35, and the adjusting disk 34 remains stationary temporarily. During this process, the feeding box 11 puts the traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces into the placement plate 46 below the feed port 23 again; When the driving shaft 33 rotates again to contact the driving groove 35, it will push the adjusting disk 34 to rotate again, so that the rotating cylinder 43 rotates again, and the positions between the plurality of placement plates 46 change again; When the rotating cylinder 43 rotates again, the placing tray 46 located below the turning assembly 5 will rotate to the upper side of the communication port 24. At the same time, the synchronous gear 47 will contact the adjusting tooth group 26 above the feeding port 23. The synchronous gear 47 rotates under the action of the adjusting tooth group 26 and drives the placing tray 46 to rotate, causing the connecting rod 45 to rotate within the connecting cylinder 44. When the placing tray 46 rotates, the traditional Chinese medicine pieces on the placing tray 46 fall from the placing tray 46 and land on the discharging plate 12, and are discharged through the discharging plate 12; At this time, the placing tray 46 is in a flipped state. When the rotating cylinder 43 rotates again, it will drive the placing tray 46 at the communication port 24 to move towards the feeding port 23, and make the synchronous gear 47 contact the adjusting tooth group 26 below the feeding port 23. The synchronous gear 47 is driven by the adjusting tooth group 26 to flip and reset again. When the rotating cylinder 43 stops, the placing tray 46 is simultaneously reset and ready to receive materials; At the same time, when the rotating cylinder 43 drives the placing tray 46 to move below the turning assembly 5, the connecting cylinder 44 is simultaneously pushed by the adjusting groove 42 to move upward along the limiting groove 48. When the connecting cylinder 44 moves to the highest position of the adjusting groove 42, the turning assembly 5 is inserted into the placing tray 46 and turns the materials driven by the driving disc 32. When the rotating cylinder 43 continues to rotate, the connecting cylinder 44 will move downward along the limiting groove 48 under the push of the adjusting groove 42 and disengage from the turning assembly 5 to avoid being blocked by the turning assembly 5 during movement.

[0024] In this embodiment, the turning assembly 5 includes a driven gear 51. The driven gear 51 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top of the sterilization box body 22, and the driven gear 51 meshes with the driving gear 37. A synchronous shaft 52 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the driven gear 51. The synchronous shaft 52 is located at an eccentric position at the bottom of the driven gear 51. A driving ring 53 is sleeved on the arc surface of the synchronous shaft 52. Both ends of the top of the driving ring 53 are provided with sliding rods. The driving ring 53 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the top of the sterilization box body 22 through the two sliding rods. A connecting plate 54 is also fixedly connected to one side of the driving ring 53. A plurality of evenly distributed turning rods 55 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 54, and the lowest ends of the plurality of turning rods 55 are lower than the highest end of the adjusting groove 42; Specifically, when the adjustment disk 34 drives the rotating cylinder 43 to rotate and stops after moving the placement disk 46 to the turning component 5, the connecting cylinder 44 simultaneously moves to the highest position of the adjustment slot 42. At this time, the turning rod 55 is inserted into the traditional Chinese medicine slices on the placement disk 46. When the driving disk 32 continues to rotate, it will drive the driven gear 51 to rotate through the driving gear 37. When the driven gear 51 rotates, it simultaneously drives the synchronous shaft 52 on the driven gear 51 to move, causing the synchronous shaft 52 to slide along the inner wall of the driving ring 53 and driving the driving ring 53 to move. When the driving ring 53 moves, it simultaneously pulls the connecting plate 54 and the turning rod 55 to move, and the traditional Chinese medicine slices in the placement disk 46 are turned by the movement of the turning rod 55.

[0025] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: In use, first add the cleaned and sliced traditional Chinese medicine slices into the feeding box 11. When sterilizing the traditional Chinese medicine slices, put the traditional Chinese medicine slices in the feeding box 11 into the placement disk 46 in the main body 22 of the sterilization box, and at the same time start the microwave sterilizer and the driving motor 31. The microwave magnetic field generated by the microwave sterilizer denatures the proteins of bacteria and microorganisms and inactivates the enzymes, thereby inhibiting or killing them. When the driving motor 31 is started, it drives the driving disk 32 to rotate through the coupling. The driving shaft 33 on the driving disk 32 rotates synchronously with the driving disk 32 and slides in the driving slot 35 on the adjustment disk 34. When the driving shaft 33 slides in one of the driving slots 35, it simultaneously pushes the adjustment disk 34 to rotate. The adjustment disk 34 simultaneously drives the traditional Chinese medicine slice placement component 4 to rotate, changing the position of the traditional Chinese medicine slice placement component 4. After the rotating cylinder 43 makes one rotation, the driving shaft 33 disengages from the driving slot 35, and the adjustment disk 34 remains stationary temporarily. When the adjustment disk 34 drives the rotating cylinder 43 to rotate and stops after moving the placement disk 46 to the turning component 5, the connecting cylinder 44 simultaneously moves to the highest position of the adjustment slot 42. At this time, the turning rod 55 is inserted into the traditional Chinese medicine slices on the placement disk 46. When the driving disk 32 continues to rotate, it will drive the driven gear 51 to rotate through the driving gear 37. When the driven gear 51 rotates, it simultaneously drives the synchronous shaft 52 on the driven gear 51 to move, causing the synchronous shaft 52 to slide along the inner wall of the driving ring 53 and driving the driving ring 53 to move. When the driving ring 53 moves, it simultaneously pulls the connecting plate 54 and the turning rod 55 to move, and the traditional Chinese medicine slices in the placement disk 46 are turned by the movement of the turning rod 55. When the rotating cylinder 43 rotates again, the placing tray 46 located below the turning assembly 5 will rotate above the communication port 24. At the same time, the synchronous gear 47 will contact the adjusting tooth group 26 above the feeding port 23. The synchronous gear 47 rotates under the action of the adjusting tooth group 26 and drives the placing tray 46 to rotate, causing the connecting rod 45 to rotate within the connecting cylinder 44. When the placing tray 46 rotates, the traditional Chinese medicine pieces on the placing tray 46 fall from the placing tray 46 and land on the discharging plate 12, and are discharged through the discharging plate 12; At this time, the placing tray 46 is in a flipped state. When the rotating cylinder 43 rotates again, it will drive the placing tray 46 at the communication port 24 to move towards the feeding port 23 and make the synchronous gear 47 contact the adjusting tooth group 26 below the feeding port 23. The synchronous gear 47 is driven by the adjusting tooth group 26 to flip and reset again. When the rotating cylinder 43 stops, the placing tray 46 completes the reset at the same time and is ready to receive materials; At the same time, when the rotating cylinder 43 drives the placing tray 46 to move below the turning assembly 5, the connecting cylinder 44 is simultaneously pushed by the adjusting groove 42 to move upward along the limiting groove 48. When the connecting cylinder 44 moves to the highest point of the adjusting groove 42, the turning assembly 5 is inserted into the placing tray 46 and turns the materials driven by the driving disc 32. When the rotating cylinder 43 continues to rotate, the connecting cylinder 44 will move downward along the limiting groove 48 under the push of the adjusting groove 42 and separate from the turning assembly 5 to avoid being blocked by the turning assembly 5 during movement.
