[0008] As a further solution of the present invention, a plurality of ventilation holes are provided outside the extension frame, and a plurality of air holes are provided on the outer wall of the cartridge, and the ventilation holes are connected to the air holes. A plurality of groups of dividing strips are installed on the inner wall of the cartridge, and the number of dividing strips in each group is two, and adjacent two dividing strips are in contact with each other. A plurality of guide grooves are provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the cartridge.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention, the drying component includes a drying fan, support legs are respectively installed at the four corners of the bottom of the base, the drying fan is located between the four support legs, the drying fan is installed at the bottom of the base, a dust filter box is provided at the bottom of the drying fan, and six air ducts are installed at the air outlet end of the drying fan, and the ends of the air ducts pass through the base and are connected to the cavity in the microwave sterilization drying box.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention, the sealing cover assembly includes a sealing cover, the bottom of which is threadedly connected to a threaded hole opened on the microwave sterilization drying box, an observation window and an exhaust valve are installed on the sealing cover, and handles are fixed on both sides of the top of the sealing cover.

[0011] A method for using a sterilization and drying device for rough processing of Chinese herbal medicines, the method comprising the following steps: When sterilizing and drying the Chinese herbal medicines, the sealing assembly is opened, and the Chinese herbal medicines are placed in the medicine cartridge in the medicine storage assembly inside the microwave sterilization and drying oven. Since a single storage space is formed between the inner wall of the medicine cartridge and the two dividing strips, and an independent space is formed between the dividing strips and the extension frame, Chinese herbal medicines of different specifications can be placed in a classified manner, thereby preventing the Chinese herbal medicines from being mixed and affecting the subsequent picking operation. After the Chinese herbal medicines are placed in the medicine storage assembly, the handle on the sealing assembly is held and moved to the threaded hole at the top of the microwave sterilization and drying oven. The sealing cover is rotated by the handle so that the sealing cover can be screwed into the threaded hole until the sealing cover is tightly against the top of the microwave sterilization and drying oven. By controlling the operation of the drying fan, external air enters the drying fan through the dust filter box, and the dust filter box can filter impurities in the air. The drying fan heats the air and then introduces it into the cavity through multiple air ducts. Then the hot air is blown out from multiple air outlets. Because air holes and ventilation holes are respectively provided on the medicine cartridge and the extension frame, the air holes are connected with the ventilation holes, which improves the air circulation between the medicine cartridge and the extension frame. Moreover, because the extension frame protrudes from the medicine cartridge, when the hot air blows toward the medicine storage component, the ventilation holes on the two adjacent extension frames and the air holes outside the medicine cartridge divert the hot air and expand the contact area between the hot air and the Chinese medicinal materials, so that it can fully contact the Chinese medicinal materials inside the medicine storage component. In the process of hot air drying the Chinese medicinal materials, the moist air can be discharged from the exhaust valve on the sealing cover, which speeds up the drying speed of the Chinese medicinal materials. At the same time, the microwave sterilization mechanism is used to sterilize the Chinese medicinal materials. Secondly, the motor is controlled to work, and the output shaft of the motor drives the turntable to rotate inside the support bearing, and the turntable is supported and limited by the support bearing, thereby improving the stability of the turntable driving the medicine storage assembly above to rotate, and the medicine storage assembly drives the internal Chinese herbal medicine to revolve around the center of the microwave sterilization and drying box, so that the Chinese herbal medicine can rotate at the edge of the inner wall of the microwave sterilization and drying box. During the rotation of the turntable, it can drive the gear at the bottom to rotate. Because multiple gears are meshed with the gear ring, the gear can drive the medicine storage assembly to rotate through the rotating seat. Therefore, while the medicine storage assembly revolves around the center of the microwave sterilization and drying box, the medicine storage assembly can rotate on its own, so that the medicine storage assembly can drive the Chinese herbal medicine to turn over, and cooperate with the hot air blowing from multiple air outlets and the operation of the microwave sterilization mechanism to achieve the purpose of multi-directional sterilization and drying of Chinese herbal medicines, and improve the sterilization and drying effect by keeping the Chinese herbal medicines in a moving and turning state at all times; When the hammer is in contact with the cam, the spring forces the hammer to move against the piston, which in turn pushes the piston to move against the piston, and the piston moves against the piston rod, which in turn pushes the piston to move against the piston rod, and the piston rod moves against the piston to move against the piston rod. After completing the sterilization and drying of the Chinese medicinal materials, hold the two handles and rotate the sealing cover. The sealing cover can be separated from the threaded hole on the top of the microwave sterilization and drying box during the rotation. After removing the sealing cover, hold the medicine storage assembly and lift it up so that the block at the bottom of the cartridge can be separated from the slot on the rotating seat, and the extension frame is away from between the two adjacent limiting protrusions. The medicine storage assembly is removed to facilitate the removal and placement of the internal Chinese herbal medicine. When installing the medicine storage assembly, the block at the bottom of the cartridge is inserted into the slot. Because the block and the slot are both rectangular in design, the rotating seat can drive the medicine storage cartridge to rotate synchronously through the block. The bottom of the cartridge contacts the inner walls of several limiting protrusions, and the extension frame is inserted between the two adjacent limiting protrusions, so that the medicine storage assembly can be quickly connected to the rotating seat.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention controls the operation of the motor, and the output shaft of the motor drives the turntable to rotate inside the supporting bearing, and the turntable is supported and limited by the supporting bearing, thereby improving the stability of the medicine storage assembly above the turntable driving the rotation, and the medicine storage assembly drives the Chinese herbal medicine inside to revolve around the center of the microwave sterilization and drying box, so that the Chinese herbal medicine can rotate at the edge of the inner wall of the microwave sterilization and drying box. During the rotation of the turntable, it can drive the gear at the bottom to rotate. Because the multiple gears are meshed with the gear ring, the gear can drive the medicine storage assembly to rotate through the rotating seat. Therefore, while the medicine storage assembly revolves around the center of the microwave sterilization and drying box, the medicine storage assembly can rotate on its own, so that the medicine storage assembly can drive the Chinese herbal medicine to turn over, and cooperate with the hot air blowing from the multiple air outlets and the operation of the microwave sterilization mechanism to achieve the purpose of multi-directional sterilization and drying of the Chinese herbal medicine, prevent the Chinese herbal medicine from being scorched on the surface of the medicinal material due to high temperature when it is in a static state, and improve the sterilization and drying effect by keeping the Chinese herbal medicine in a moving and turning state at all times; 2. In the process of the medicine storage component being driven to rotate by the rotating seat of the present invention, the rotating seat will contact the knocking block. Because the two sides of the knocking block are inclined and the outer wall of the convex strip is an arc surface, the convex strip can squeeze the knocking block to make it slide in the slide box during the contact between the knocking block and the convex strip. At this time, the knocking block is separated from the rotating seat. When the knocking block is separated from the convex strip, the elastic force of the spring squeezes the slider, so that the slider can drive the knocking block to move quickly and knock on the rotating seat. As the rotating seat drives the convex strip to rotate continuously, the knocking block can intermittently knock on the rotating seat, so that the rotating seat transmits the vibration to the medicine storage component, and then can shake off the medicine residue in the ventilation holes and air holes in the cartridge, prevent the ventilation holes and air holes from being blocked and affecting the air circulation, and ensure the drying effect of the medicinal materials in the cartridge; 3. The present invention controls the operation of the drying fan, and the outside air enters the drying fan through the dust filter box, and the dust filter box can filter impurities in the air. The drying fan heats the air and then introduces it into the cavity through multiple air ducts, and then the hot air is blown out from the multiple air outlet holes. Because the medicine cartridge and the extension frame are respectively provided with air holes and ventilation holes, the air holes are connected with the ventilation holes, which improves the air circulation between the medicine cartridge and the extension frame. In addition, because the extension frame protrudes from the medicine cartridge, when the hot air blows toward the medicine storage component, the ventilation holes on the two adjacent extension frames and the air holes outside the medicine cartridge divert the hot air, and expand the contact area between the hot air and the Chinese medicinal materials, so that it can fully contact the Chinese medicinal materials inside the medicine storage component. In the process of hot air drying the Chinese medicinal materials, the moist air can be discharged from the exhaust valve on the sealing cover, which speeds up the drying speed of the Chinese medicinal materials. At the same time, the microwave sterilization mechanism is used to perform microwave sterilization on the Chinese medicinal materials, which can quickly and effectively sterilize and dry the Chinese medicinal materials. 4. The present invention holds the two handles and rotates the sealing cover. During the rotation, the sealing cover can be disengaged from the threaded hole on the top of the microwave sterilization drying box. After removing the sealing cover, hold the medicine storage assembly and lift it up so that the block at the bottom of the cartridge can be disengaged from the slot on the rotating seat, and the extension frame is away from between the two adjacent limiting protrusions. That is, the medicine storage assembly is removed to facilitate the removal and placement of the internal Chinese herbal medicine. When installing the medicine storage assembly, the block at the bottom of the cartridge is inserted into the slot. Since the block and the slot are both rectangular in design, the rotating seat can drive the medicine storage cartridge to rotate synchronously through the block. The bottom of the cartridge contacts the inner walls of several limiting protrusions, and the extension frame is inserted between the two adjacent limiting protrusions, so that the medicine storage assembly can be quickly connected to the rotating seat, thereby improving the stability of the rotating seat driving the medicine storage assembly to rotate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] 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 any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] See also Figures 1-9The present invention provides a technical solution: a sterilization and drying device for rough processing of Chinese herbal medicines, comprising a microwave sterilization and drying oven 1, a base 2 being installed at the bottom of the microwave sterilization and drying oven 1, a drive assembly 3 being installed in the base 2, the drive assembly 3 comprising a turntable 301, a support bearing 302 being connected to the outer cover of the turntable 301, the support bearing 302 being installed at the opening at the top of the base 2, a motor 303 being fixed to the bottom of the turntable 301, the motor 303 being installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the base 2, and a deflection assembly 4 being installed through the turntable 301. The output shaft of the motor 303 drives the turntable 301 to rotate inside the support bearing 302, and the turntable 301 is supported and limited by the support bearing 302, thereby improving the stability of the medicine storage assembly 6 above driven by the turntable 301 in rotating.

[0018] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of deflection assemblies 4 are mounted on the turntable 301. The deflection assemblies 4 include a rotating seat 401, which is provided with a slot 402. The bottom of the medicine storage assembly 6 is mounted on the rotating seat 401. The bottom of the rotating seat 401 is provided with a bearing seat 404, which is engaged with the slot 402 on the turntable 301. A gear 405 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating seat 401. A gear ring 5 is mounted in the base 2. The bottom ends of the plurality of bearing seats 404 pass through the turntable 301, and the gears 405 are meshed with the gear ring 5. The plurality of gears 405 are meshed with the gear ring 5, so that the gears 405 can drive the medicine storage assembly 6 to rotate through the rotating seat 401. As the medicine storage assembly 6 revolves around the center of the microwave sterilization drying box 1, the medicine storage assembly 6 can rotate on its own, so that the medicine storage assembly 6 can drive the Chinese medicinal materials to turn over, thereby achieving the purpose of multi-directional sterilization and drying of Chinese medicinal materials.

[0019] As a further solution of the present invention, the medicine storage component 6 includes a cartridge 601, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to a block 606, which is engaged in a slot 402, and both the block 606 and the slot 402 are rectangular in design; a plurality of extension frames 602 are mounted on the outside of the cartridge 601, and a plurality of limiting protrusions 403 are provided at the edge of the top of the rotating seat 401, the bottom of the cartridge 601 contacts the inner walls of the plurality of limiting protrusions 403, and the extension frame 602 is inserted between two adjacent limiting protrusions 403. By holding the medicine storage component 6 and lifting it, the block 606 at the bottom of the cartridge 601 can be disengaged from the slot 402 on the rotating seat 401, and the extension frame 602 is moved away from between two adjacent limiting protrusions 403, making it easy to take in and out the Chinese herbal medicine inside the medicine storage component 6.

[0020] As a further solution of the present invention, a plurality of ventilation holes 603 are provided outside the extension frame 602, and a plurality of air holes 604 are provided on the outer wall of the cartridge 601, and the ventilation holes 603 are connected to the air holes 604, thereby improving the air circulation between the cartridge 601 and the extension frame 602. Because the extension frame 602 protrudes from the cartridge 601, when the hot air blows toward the medicine storage component 6, the ventilation holes 603 on the two adjacent extension frames 602 and the air holes 604 outside the cartridge 601 divert the hot air, and expand the contact area between the hot air and the Chinese medicinal materials, so that the hot air is in full contact with the Chinese medicinal materials inside the medicine storage component 6.

[0021] The inner wall of the medicine cartridge 601 is fitted with several sets of two divider bars 605, with adjacent divider bars 605 touching each other. The bottom of the inner wall of the medicine cartridge 601 is provided with several diversion grooves 607, which drain water from the interior of the medicine cartridge 601. A single storage space is formed between the inner wall of the medicine cartridge 601 and the two divider bars 605, while an independent space is formed between the divider bar 605 and the extension frame 602. This allows for the storage of Chinese herbal medicines of different specifications, preventing mixing of the herbs and affecting subsequent sorting operations.

[0022] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the medicine cartridge 601 is located within the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. The drying assembly 7 includes a drying fan 701. Support legs 13 are mounted at the four corners of the bottom of the base 2. The drying fan 701 is located between the four support legs 13 and is mounted at the bottom of the base 2. A dust filter box 702 is provided at the bottom of the drying fan 701. Six air ducts 703 are mounted at the air outlet of the drying fan 701. The ends of the air ducts 703 pass through the base 2 and communicate with the cavity 8 within the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. External air enters the drying fan 701 through the dust filter box 702. The dust filter box 702 can filter impurities in the air to prevent dust from entering the microwave sterilization drying oven 1 and contaminating the Chinese medicinal materials. The drying fan 701 heats the air and then directs it into the cavity 8 through multiple air ducts 703, allowing the cavity 8 to discharge the gas through the air outlet 9.

[0023] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a cavity 8 is provided in the side wall of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. The inner wall of the cavity 8 is provided with a plurality of air outlet holes 9, and the cavity 8 is connected to the end of the air duct 703. A plurality of microwave sterilization mechanisms 10 are equidistantly mounted on the inner wall of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1, and the plurality of microwave sterilization mechanisms 10 face the medicine cartridge 601. A sealing assembly 12 is mounted on the top of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. The sealing assembly 12 includes a sealing cover 121, the bottom of which is threadedly connected to a threaded hole 11 provided in the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. The sealing cover 121 is provided with an observation window 122 and an exhaust valve 123. Handles 124 are fixed to either side of the top of the sealing cover 121.

[0024] Grip the handle 124 on the sealing cover assembly 12 and move it to the threaded hole 11 on the top of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. Use the handle 124 to rotate the sealing cover 121 so that the sealing cover 121 can be screwed into the threaded hole 11 until the sealing cover 121 is tightly against the top of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1, ensuring the sealing connection between the sealing cover 121 and the top of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. The setting of the observation window 122 makes it convenient to observe the interior of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. The setting of the exhaust valve 123 allows moist air to be discharged from the exhaust valve 123 on the sealing cover 121, thereby accelerating the drying speed of the Chinese medicinal materials.

[0025] An anti-blocking component 14 is fixed to the lower part of the inner wall of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1, and a plurality of ridges 406 are provided on the outside of the rotating seat 401, and the outer surface of the ridges 406 is designed as an arc surface. The anti-blocking component 14 includes a slide box 141, which is fixed to the lower part of the inner wall of the microwave sterilization drying oven 1. A slider 142 is slidably connected to the slide box 141, and a spring 144 is fixedly connected between the slider 142 and the inner wall of the slide box 141. A knocking block 143 is fixedly connected to the side of the slider 142 away from the spring 144. One end of the knocking block 143 passes through the slide box 141 and contacts the outer wall of the rotating seat 401, and both sides of the end of the knocking block 143 are inclined. Because the two sides of the knocking block 143 are designed to be inclined and the outer wall of the protrusion 406 is an arc surface, during the contact between the knocking block 143 and the protrusion 406, the protrusion 406 can squeeze the knocking block 143 so that it slides in the sliding box 141. At this time, the knocking block 143 is separated from the rotating seat 401, so that the knocking block 143 can knock the rotating seat 401 after falling off the protrusion 406.

[0026] A method for using a sterilization and drying device for rough processing of Chinese herbal medicines, the method comprising the following steps: When sterilizing and drying the Chinese herbal medicines, the cover assembly 12 is opened, and the Chinese herbal medicines are placed in the medicine cartridge 601 in the medicine storage assembly 6 inside the microwave sterilization and drying oven 1. Since a single storage space is formed between the inner wall of the medicine cartridge 601 and the two partition bars 605, and an independent space is formed between the partition bar 605 and the extension frame 602, Chinese herbal medicines of different specifications can be placed in a classified manner to prevent the Chinese herbal medicines from being mixed and affecting the subsequent picking operation. After the Chinese herbal medicines are placed in the medicine storage assembly 6, the handle 124 on the cover assembly 12 is gripped and moved to the threaded hole 11 at the top of the microwave sterilization and drying oven 1. The sealing cover 121 is rotated by the handle 124 so that the sealing cover 121 can be screwed into the threaded hole 11 until the sealing cover 121 is tightly against the top of the microwave sterilization and drying oven 1; By controlling the operation of the drying fan 701, the outside air enters the drying fan 701 through the dust filter box 702, and the dust filter box 702 can filter impurities in the air. The drying fan 701 heats the air and then introduces it into the cavity 8 through multiple air guide pipes 703. Then, the hot air is blown out from multiple air outlets 9. Because the cartridge 601 and the extension frame 602 are respectively provided with air holes 604 and ventilation holes 603, the air holes 604 are connected with the ventilation holes 603, which improves the air circulation between the cartridge 601 and the extension frame 602. The extension frame 602 protrudes from the medicine cartridge 601. When hot air blows toward the medicine storage assembly 6, the ventilation holes 603 on the two adjacent extension frames 602 and the air holes 604 outside the medicine cartridge 601 divert the hot air and expand the contact area between the hot air and the Chinese medicinal materials, so that the hot air can fully contact the Chinese medicinal materials inside the medicine storage assembly 6. During the process of drying the Chinese medicinal materials with the hot air, the moist air can be discharged from the exhaust valve 123 on the sealing cover 121, thereby accelerating the drying speed of the Chinese medicinal materials and simultaneously cooperating with the microwave sterilization mechanism 10 to perform microwave sterilization on the Chinese medicinal materials. Secondly, the motor 303 is controlled to work, and the output shaft of the motor 303 drives the turntable 301 to rotate inside the support bearing 302, and the turntable 301 is supported and limited by the support bearing 302, thereby improving the stability of the turntable 301 driving the medicine storage assembly 6 to rotate. The medicine storage assembly 6 drives the Chinese herbal medicine inside to revolve around the center of the microwave sterilization and drying box 1, so that the Chinese herbal medicine can rotate at the edge of the inner wall of the microwave sterilization and drying box 1. During the rotation of the turntable 301, it can drive the gear 405 at the bottom to rotate. Because the multiple gears 405 are meshed with the ring gear 5, the gear 405 can drive the medicine storage assembly 6 to rotate through the rotating seat 401. Therefore, while the medicine storage assembly 6 revolves around the center of the microwave sterilization and drying box 1, the medicine storage assembly 6 can rotate on its own, so that the medicine storage assembly 6 can drive the Chinese herbal medicine to turn over, and cooperate with the hot air blowing from the multiple air outlets 9 and the operation of the microwave sterilization mechanism 10 to achieve the purpose of multi-directional sterilization and drying of the Chinese herbal medicine, and improve the sterilization and drying effect by keeping the Chinese herbal medicine in a moving and turning state at all times; When the medicine storage component 6 is rotated by the rotating seat 401, the rotating seat 401 will contact the knocking block 143.

At this time, the knocking block 143 is separated from the rotating seat 401. When the knocking block 143 is separated from the ridge 406, the elastic force of the spring 144 squeezes the slider 142, so that the slider The block 142 can drive the knocking block 143 to move quickly and knock on the rotating seat 401. As the rotating seat 401 drives the convex strip 406 to rotate continuously, the knocking block 143 can intermittently knock on the rotating seat 401, so that the rotating seat 401 transmits the vibration to the medicine storage component 6, thereby shaking off the medicine residue in the ventilation holes 603 and the air holes 604 in the cartridge 601, preventing the ventilation holes 603 and the air holes 604 from being blocked and affecting the air circulation, thereby ensuring the drying effect of the medicinal materials in the cartridge 601; After completing the sterilization and drying of the Chinese medicinal materials, hold the two handles 124 and rotate the sealing cover 121. The sealing cover 121 can be separated from the threaded hole 11 on the top of the microwave sterilization and drying box 1 during the rotation. After removing the sealing cover 121, hold the medicine storage component 6 and lift it up so that the block 606 at the bottom of the cartridge 601 can be separated from the slot 402 on the rotating seat 401, and the extension frame 602 is away from between the two adjacent limiting protrusions 403, and the medicine storage component 6 is removed so that To take out and put the Chinese herbal medicine inside, when installing the medicine storage component 6, the block 606 at the bottom of the cartridge 601 is inserted into the slot 402. Since the block 606 and the slot 402 are both rectangular in design, the rotating seat 401 can drive the medicine storage cartridge 601 to rotate synchronously through the block 606. The bottom of the cartridge 601 contacts the inner walls of several limiting protrusions 403, and the extension frame 602 is inserted between two adjacent limiting protrusions 403, so that the medicine storage component 6 can be quickly connected to the rotating seat 401.

Since a single storage space is formed between the inner wall of the medicine cartridge (601) and the two partition bars (605), and an independent space is formed between the partition bars (605) and the extension frame (602), Chinese herbal medicines of different specifications can be classified and placed, and the Chinese herbal medicines are prevented from being mixed and affecting the subsequent picking operation. After the Chinese herbal medicines are placed in the medicine storage assembly (6), the handle (124) on the sealing assembly (12) is held and moved to the threaded hole (11) at the top of the microwave sterilization drying oven (1). The sealing cover (121) is rotated by the handle (124) so that the sealing cover (121) can be screwed into the threaded hole (11) until the sealing cover (121) is tightly attached to the top of the microwave sterilization drying oven (1); By controlling the operation of the drying fan (701), the outside air enters the drying fan (701) through the dust filter box (702), and the dust filter box (702) can filter impurities in the air. The drying fan (701) heats the air and introduces it into the cavity (8) through multiple air guide pipes (703). Then, the hot air is blown out from multiple air outlets (9). Since the cartridge (601) and the extension frame (602) are respectively provided with air vents (604) and ventilation holes (603), the air vents (604) are connected with the ventilation holes (603), thereby improving the air circulation between the cartridge (601) and the extension frame (602). Because the extension frame (602) protrudes from the medicine cartridge (601), when the hot air blows toward the medicine storage component (6), the ventilation holes (603) on the two adjacent extension frames (602) and the air holes (604) outside the medicine cartridge (601) divert the hot air and expand the contact area between the hot air and the Chinese medicinal materials, so that the hot air can fully contact the Chinese medicinal materials inside the medicine storage component (6). During the process of drying the Chinese medicinal materials with the hot air, the wet air can be discharged from the exhaust valve (123) on the sealing cover (121), thereby accelerating the drying speed of the Chinese medicinal materials and simultaneously cooperating with the microwave sterilization mechanism (10) to perform microwave sterilization on the Chinese medicinal materials. Secondly, the motor (303) is controlled to work, and the output shaft of the motor (303) drives the turntable (301) to rotate inside the support bearing (302).
