Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of Chinese herbal medicine processing, and in particular to an environment-friendly freeze-drying device for Chinese herbal medicines. Background Art

[0002] China is extremely rich in Chinese herbal medicine resources, which are natural medicines and health products. Due to the strong seasonality of the harvest of Chinese herbal medicines, how to ensure that the nutritional components of the medicines are not damaged is the most concerned issue for people. Because the active components of Chinese herbal medicines are mostly thermosensitive, volatile and easily oxidizable, if traditional treatment methods are used, these active components will be greatly lost. With the development of technology, by using vacuum freeze-drying technology, it is possible to effectively maintain the active components, shape and color of the medicines, and extend the shelf life. In recent years, ultrafine powder products prepared after vacuum freeze-drying have been recognized by the market due to their significant advantages and have become a research and development hotspot for Chinese medicine enterprises.

[0003] After retrieval, the publication (announcement) number: CN214009726U discloses an environment-friendly freeze-drying device for Chinese herbal medicines, including support feet. A vacuum freeze-drying machine main body is installed on the top of the support feet. On both sides of the inner wall of the vacuum freeze-drying machine main body, first limit grooves are symmetrically opened. An upward-opening U-shaped frame is arranged between the first limit grooves. First rotating shafts corresponding to the first limit grooves are fixed on the outer walls of both ends of the U-shaped frame. In the middle of the bottom side of the U-shaped frame, fixing ears are symmetrically arranged. Second limit grooves are opened in the middle of the inner walls of the fixing ears. For the environment-friendly freeze-drying device for Chinese herbal medicines of the present invention, Chinese herbal medicines are poured onto the placing plate through the feeding through groove and evenly dispersed. After covering the sealing cover and the cover plate, freeze-drying treatment can be carried out. After the processing is completed, the cover plate is opened, and the hydraulic telescopic rod is contracted downward, so that the U-shaped frame and the outer port of the placing plate are inclined downward, and the Chinese herbal medicines are poured into the medicine collection box placed on the fixed table at one time, and the operation is convenient.

[0004] In the above-mentioned prior art solution, due to the adoption of a static drying mode and flat devices such as placing plates, this design limits the amount of medicine processed under the condition of a certain equipment space, resulting in the inability of the equipment processing capacity to meet the needs of large-scale production. Especially when the demand is large, this design will become a bottleneck, directly affecting the improvement of production efficiency and capacity.

[0005] Therefore, we propose an environment-friendly freeze-drying device for Chinese herbal medicines. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention mainly solves the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, and provides an environment-friendly freeze-drying device for Chinese herbal medicines.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions. An environment-friendly Chinese medicinal material freeze-drying device includes a base, a drying cylinder and a cylinder cover. Installation plates are fixedly arranged on both sides of the base.

[0036] In use, open the cylinder cover 201 and put the traditional Chinese medicinal materials to be dried into the inner cavity of the drying cylinder 2. Start the dryer 601 and the second motor 501. The second motor 501 drives the curved stirring rod 503 on the stirring shaft 502 to mix them preliminarily. Start the first motor 401 to drive the rotation of the first bevel gear 402. Since the first bevel gear 402 meshes with the second bevel gear 403, the drying cylinder 2 is driven to rotate, so that all the traditional Chinese medicinal materials inside the drying cylinder 2 can come into contact with the curved stirring rod 503, and the traditional Chinese medicinal materials in the inner cavity of the drying cylinder 2 are continuously turned over.

[0037] In use, when moving the device, the universal wheel 7 is jolted. The universal wheel 7 approaches the buffer slide plate 901. At this time, the spring two 10 in the inner cavity of the buffer sleeve 8 initially buffers the vibration generated by the jolt of the universal wheel 7, and the buffer sleeve 8 continuously approaches the buffer slide plate 901 and, under the action of the spring one 902, buffers the vibration generated by the jolt of the universal wheel 7 again.

[0038] In use, through the mutual cooperation of the limit bump 903 and the limit groove 801, the buffer sleeve rod 9 is limited in the inner cavity of the buffer sleeve 8 to prevent the buffer sleeve rod 9 from being disengaged from the inner cavity of the buffer sleeve 8.
