[0014] The automated processing technology of Polygonatum odoratum comprises the following steps:

[0023] 3. The automated processing equipment and process for polygonatum sibiricum fully mixes rice wine and polygonatum sibiricum, so that every part of the polygonatum sibiricum is in contact with the rice wine. The stirring action of the stirring rack accelerates the diffusion and penetration of the rice wine on the surface of the polygonatum sibiricum, thereby shortening the infiltration time of the polygonatum sibiricum. In industrial production, this can improve production efficiency and increase output per unit time.

[0024] 4. The automated processing equipment and process of Polygonatum sibiricum can ensure that each batch of Polygonatum sibiricum can achieve similar effects during the rice wine soaking process, reducing the processing quality differences caused by uneven or insufficient manual stirring, and ensuring the stability and consistency of product quality.

[0034] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] The following describes the automated processing equipment and process of Polygonatum odoratum provided by some embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Example 1:

[0037] In the traditional preparation process of Polygonatum odoratum, it may be necessary to manually carry and place the cage 104, which is not only labor-intensive but also prone to inaccurate placement. In order to solve the above problems, combined with Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the automated processing equipment for polygonatum provided by the present invention includes a body 100, a container 101 is placed in the body 100, a heater 102 for heating the water in the container 101 is installed on one side of the body 100, a bearing seat 103 and a cage 104 for loading polygonatum are provided on the body 100, the diameter of the bearing seat 103 is larger than the diameter of the cage 104, the bearing seat 103 and the cage 104 are matched and installed, a plurality of filter holes 105 are opened on the cage 104, and a transmission mechanism is provided on the body 100. Structure 200, cage 104 facing upwards, load-bearing seat 103 facing downwards, to facilitate the spraying of rice wine (sprinkler system) and the absorption of liquid by polygonatum, stirring frame 210 (cooperating with bevel gear 207 for transmission) can automatically stir to ensure uniform penetration of rice wine, steaming stage: after the repositioning, the load-bearing seat 103 faces upwards, cage 104 faces downwards, cage 104 is directly placed above container 101, and steaming is carried out using the steam generated by the heating machine 102. This process does not require manual handling or turning of materials, avoiding the risk of scalding and improving operational safety;

[0038] Traditionally, an additional power source may be required, such as a hydraulic cylinder to drive the position change alone, which will increase the cost and energy consumption. In order to solve the above problems, the transmission mechanism 200 includes a bracket 203 that can be lifted and lowered on the body 100. A transmission shaft 2046 and a connecting shaft 2041 are rotatably installed on both sides of the bracket 203. The ends of the transmission shaft 2046 and the connecting shaft 2041 are connected to the cage 104. A position change mechanism 204 is provided on the body 100 for exchanging the positions of the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage 104. First, the yellow wine and the polygonatum need to be mixed. To carry out the reaction, the cage 104 is facing upwards and the load-bearing seat 103 is facing downwards. After the polygonatum has finished absorbing the rice wine, the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage 104 are swapped so that the load-bearing seat 103 is facing upwards and the cage 104 is facing downwards. The cage 104 is then moved to the container 101 and steamed. The linear motion of the bracket 203 during lifting and lowering is converted into the rotational motion of the cage 104. The stability of the mechanical transmission is used to achieve precise replacement without the need for an additional power source. The replacement is completed synchronously with the lifting and lowering action of the bracket 203, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the equipment.

[0039] Specifically, the shifting mechanism 204 includes a worm gear 2042 fixed to the connecting shaft 2041, a worm 2043 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 203, a spur gear 2044 is fixed to the end of the worm 2043, and a rack 2045 is fixed to the frame and is meshed with the spur gear 2044. When the bracket 203 moves downward, it drives the cage 104 and the bearing seat 103 to move together, and then the spur gear 2044 meshes with the rack 2045 to drive the worm 2043 to rotate. 2043 drives the connecting shaft 2041 to rotate through the worm gear 2042, and the connecting shaft 2041 drives the cage body 104 to rotate, and then drives the load-bearing seat 103 to rotate, so that the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage body 104 can be swapped, that is, both brewing and steaming can be carried out, which can ensure that the cage body 104 and the load-bearing seat 103 are accurately swapped at a constant angle (such as 180°), avoiding position deviation caused by manual operation or non-rigid transmission, and ensuring the work position accuracy of the brewing and steaming processes.

[0040] Furthermore, a load-bearing sleeve 2047 is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft 2046, and an electric telescopic rod 2048 is fixedly installed on the load-bearing sleeve 2047. The free end of the electric telescopic rod 2048 is fixedly connected to a connecting block 2049, and the load-bearing seat 103 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting block 2049. The electric telescopic rod 2048 can separate and combine the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage body 104, making it easy to take and place the Polygonatum.

[0041] According to the embodiment, after the position change, the cage body 104 can be directly aligned with the top of the container 101 for steaming (the filter hole 105 is facing downward to facilitate steam penetration), and the load-bearing seat 103 can receive rice wine spraying or material delivery when facing upward, realizing the "brewing-steaming" integrated process, shortening the material transfer path, and improving equipment utilization.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] In the past, when steaming, it was necessary to separate the soaking and steaming, and the polygonatum needed to be moved back and forth in the middle, which increased the operation time. In order to solve the above problems, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, on the basis of embodiment 1, a motor 201 is fixedly mounted on the machine body 100, a screw 202 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 201, a bracket 203 is threadedly connected to the screw 202, a sliding rod is also fixedly connected to the machine body 100, and the bracket 203 is slidably connected to the sliding rod. When the motor 201 is started, the screw 202 is driven to rotate, and the rotation of the screw 202 drives the bracket 203 to rise and fall, and the cage 104 and the load-bearing seat 103 are also raised and lowered with the bracket 203, so that the cage 104 can be placed on the container 101 for easy steaming.

[0044] When the polygonatum (solid) and the yellow wine (liquid) are at rest, they are in contact only by gravity and natural diffusion. The yellow wine is difficult to penetrate the block or granular polygonatum, and it is easy to form a stratification phenomenon of "saturated outer layer and dry inner layer". In order to solve the above problem, a tank body 110 filled with yellow wine is placed on one side of the body 100, and a pump body 106 is fixed on the tank body 110. The water inlet pipe of the pump body 106 extends into the tank body 110. A diverter pipe 107 is fixed on the top of the body 100, and the water outlet pipe of the pump body 106 is connected to the diverter pipe 107. The diverter pipe 107 There are multiple nozzles fixed on it, which are located above the cage body 104. The pump body 106 is started to guide the rice wine in the tank body 110 into the diversion pipe 107, and then the rice wine is transported to the cage body 104 through the nozzle. Then the rice wine enters the base through the filter hole 105, so that the rice wine and polygonatum are mixed, which helps the polygonatum to better absorb the ingredients in the rice wine and enhance the preparation effect. Especially for some polygonatum that is larger or irregular in shape, the stirring rack 210 can break the local obstruction and make the rice wine penetrate into the inside of the polygonatum more evenly.

[0045] The central part of a large piece of Polygonatum may take several hours or even longer to absorb the rice wine, while the surface layer has become soft and rotten due to soaking for too long, resulting in inconsistent material state. In order to solve the above problem, a load-bearing shaft 206 is rotatably installed on the cage body 104, and a stirring rack 210 is fixed on the load-bearing shaft 206. The stirring rack 210 is located in the load-bearing seat 103. The rotation of the load-bearing shaft 206 drives the stirring rack 210 to rotate, and the rice wine and Polygonatum are fully mixed, so that every part of the Polygonatum is in contact with the rice wine. The stirring action of the stirring rack 210 accelerates the diffusion and penetration speed of the rice wine on the surface of the Polygonatum, thereby shortening the infiltration time of the Polygonatum. In industrial production, this can improve production efficiency and increase output per unit time.

[0046] According to the embodiments, each batch of polygonatum can achieve similar effects during the rice wine soaking process, reducing the difference in processing quality caused by uneven or insufficient manual stirring, and ensuring the stability and consistency of product quality.

[0047] Example 3:

[0048] If the design of the stirring blade cannot cover the entire area of the bearing seat 103 (such as the edge and bottom), a dead corner of mixing may be formed. Especially when the polygonatum particles are of different sizes or stick together after absorbing water and swelling, it is difficult to disperse the agglomeration by stirring, resulting in uneven distribution of the rice wine. In order to solve the above problem, the mixing blade is combined with the mixing blade to form a mixing dead corner. Figure 3 As shown, on the basis of Example 1, a rotating shaft 205 is rotatably installed on the cage body 104, and a bevel gear 207 of meshing transmission is set on the rotating shaft 205 and the load-bearing shaft 206. The end of the rotating shaft 205 is fixedly connected to a spur gear 208, and an incomplete gear ring 209 meshing with the spur gear 208 is fixedly connected to the bracket 203. When the rice wine and the polygonatum need to be mixed, the bracket 203 will drive the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage body 104 to alternately rise and fall. At this time, the spur gear 1 2044 will mesh with the rack 2045, driving the cage body 104 and the load-bearing seat 103 to shake. At the same time, the cage body 104 will also drive the spur gear 2 208 on the rotating shaft 205 to move, and the incomplete gear ring 209 is centered on the connecting shaft 2041. The spur gear 208 is engaged with the incomplete gear ring 209 to drive the rotating shaft 205 to rotate. The rotating shaft 205 drives the load-bearing shaft 206 to rotate through the spur gear, and the load-bearing shaft 206 drives the stirring frame 210 to rotate to stir the Polygonatum. It can not only improve the mixing effect, but also do not need to add multiple power sources, which can reduce equipment costs. At the same time, the stirring frame 210 rotates to form a compound motion, which has a better mixing effect than single shaking or static immersion.

[0049] Specifically, a guide tube 108 is installed at the bottom of the container 101, and a valve 109 is installed on the guide tube 108. After steaming is completed, the valve 109 can be opened to quickly discharge the waste water (such as condensed water and residual medicine) in the container 101 through the guide tube 108, avoiding the tedious operation of manual dumping and improving production efficiency.

[0050] Furthermore, a sealing rubber ring is provided at the fitting location of the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage body 104. The sealing rubber ring is made of food-grade silicone to prevent steam leakage and improve steaming efficiency.

[0051] According to the embodiment, the original lifting power of the equipment is utilized to synchronously realize the stirring function, avoiding the need to separately configure the motor 201 or drive device for the stirring mechanism, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost and energy consumption of the equipment.

[0052] Example 4:

[0053] The automated processing technology of Polygonatum odoratum comprises the following steps:

[0054] S1. Place the polygonatum in the load-bearing seat 103, and then assemble the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage 104;

[0055] S2. Start the pump 106 to spray the yellow wine in the tank 110 onto the cage 104 through the nozzle, and then penetrate into the polygonatum through the filter pores 105 and leave it for 30 minutes to 1 hour;

[0056] S3, simultaneously stirring the polygonatum with the stirring rack 210 to fully mix the polygonatum with the rice wine;

[0057] S4. Rearrange the positions of the load-bearing base 103 and the cage 104 so that the filter hole 105 of the cage 104 faces downward, start the motor 201, rotate the screw 202 to drive the bracket 203 to move up and down, adjust the height of the cage 104 and the load-bearing base 103 so that the cage 104 is installed on the container 101, and heat the water in the container 101 by the heater 102 to generate steam for steaming the polygonatum;

[0058] S5. After steaming is completed, the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage body 104 are driven to rise, and then the load-bearing seat 103 and the cage body 104 are separated, and the polygonatum can be taken out.
