Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the technical field of Chinese herbal medicine slice processing, and in particular, to Chinese herbal medicine slice processing equipment. Background Art

[0002] Chinese herbal medicine slices refer to solid dosage forms made by grinding Chinese medicinal materials into powder, extracting, and concentrating them. They are widely used in the fields of clinical Chinese medicine and health care. During the preparation of Chinese herbal medicine slices, Chinese medicinal materials usually need to be ground into powder. This can increase the surface area of ​​the medicinal materials, making the drug ingredients easier to release and extract. Grinding can change the physical properties of the medicinal materials, exposing the effective ingredients inside to the outside, making it easier to extract. The grinding and processing equipment plays a key role in the preparation of Chinese herbal medicine slices.

[0003] Most traditional Chinese medicine slice grinding equipment uses a single or double grinding disc to directly rotate and grind. In actual operation, after the Chinese medicine slice raw materials are put into the equipment, the medicinal materials are crushed only by the extrusion force and friction generated by the high-speed rotation of the grinding disc. As the grinding disc continues to rotate, the initially ground Chinese medicine slices are gradually discharged from the edge of the grinding disc under the action of centrifugal force. This simple and direct grinding method has obvious technical defects. On the one hand, the equipment lacks a precise particle size adjustment mechanism, making it difficult for operators to flexibly control the size of the ground particles according to the characteristics and processing requirements of different Chinese medicine slices. On the other hand, due to factors such as uneven force on the grinding disc and uneven distribution of medicinal materials in the grinding chamber, the particle size varies during the grinding process, making it difficult to ensure the uniformity of the ground particles. These larger particles not only affect the efficiency and quality of subsequent processing steps such as Chinese medicine extraction and preparation, but may also cause problems such as insufficient extraction of effective ingredients and uneven mixing, thereby significantly reducing the overall processing efficiency of Chinese medicine slices.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, it shows a Chinese herbal medicine processing equipment in an embodiment of the present disclosure, including a grinding disc 1, and also including: a grinding box 2, a crushing shaft 3, a feeding mechanism and a conveying mechanism. The top of the grinding box 2 is fixedly connected with a scraper rack 23, and the inner wall of the scraper rack 23 is in contact with the grinding disc 1. The grinding disc 1 is arranged in the grinding box 2 through a lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism is used to adjust the grinding force of the grinding disc 1. There are two crushing shafts 3. The two crushing shafts 3 are arranged in the grinding box 2 through a rotating mechanism. The rotating mechanism is used to drive the two crushing shafts 3 to rotate. The feeding mechanism is arranged at the bottom end of the grinding box 2 for discharging the ground Chinese herbal medicine slices. The conveying mechanism is arranged at the bottom end of the grinding box 2 for discharging the ground Chinese herbal medicine slice raw materials.

[0023] The lifting mechanism includes: a slide 4, a slider 5, a driving frame 7, a fixed frame 8, a driving screw 9 and a driving assembly.

The driving screw 9 is threadedly connected to the screw hole, and the driving assembly is arranged on one of the sliders 5, and is used to drive the grinding disc 1 to rotate in the grinding box 2. The driving assembly includes: a support frame 10, a rotating gear 11, a driving gear 12 and a first motor 13. The support frame 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the slider 5, the rotating gear 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 6, the driving gear 12 is arranged in the support frame 10, and the driving gear 12 is engaged with the rotating gear 11. The first motor 13 is installed on one side of the support frame 10, and the output end of the first motor 13 passes through the support frame 10 and is fixedly connected to the driving gear 12.

[0024] The operator rotates the driving block 22 to drive the driving screw 9 to rotate. When the driving screw 9 rotates in the screw hole, it drives the driving frame 7 to descend. When the driving frame 7 descends, it drives the two sliders 5 to descend in the two slides 4, and then drives the grinding disc 1 to descend in the grinding box 2, so as to adjust the grinding force of the Chinese herbal medicine slices, and further adjust the size of the ground particles. The driving gear 12 and the rotating gear 11 are driven to rotate by the first motor 13, thereby driving the rotating shaft 6 and the grinding disc 1 to rotate, so as to grind the Chinese herbal medicine raw materials.

[0025] The rotating mechanism includes: a transmission gear 14 and a second motor 15. One end of the two crushing shafts 3 is fixedly connected to the transmission gear 14.

The output end of the second motor 15 passes through the grinding box 2 and is fixedly connected to one end of one of the crushing shafts 3.

[0026] The second motor 15 drives one of the crushing shafts 3 to rotate, and when one of the crushing shafts 3 rotates, the transmission gear 14 is driven to rotate. Since the two transmission gears 14 are engaged with each other, the two crushing shafts 3 are driven to rotate relative to each other. After the Chinese herbal medicine raw materials enter between the two crushing shafts 3, the relative rotation of the two crushing shafts 3 extrudes and crushes the Chinese herbal medicine raw materials.

[0027] The unloading mechanism includes: an unloading box 16 and an unloading hole 17. The unloading box 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the grinding box 2. There are several unloading holes 17, and the several unloading holes 17 are all opened at the bottom end of the grinding box 2. The ground Chinese herbal medicine raw material powder falls into the unloading box 16 through the unloading hole 17, and the powder is guided to the conveyor belt 20 through the unloading box 16.

[0028] The conveying mechanism includes: a conveying frame 18, a conveying shaft 19, a conveyor belt 20 and a third motor 21. The conveying frame 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the grinding box 2. There are two conveying shafts 19. The two conveying shafts 19 are rotatably connected in the conveying frame 18. The conveyor belt 20 is transmission-connected between the two conveying shafts 19. The third motor 21 is installed on one side of the conveying frame 18. The output end of the third motor 21 passes through the conveying frame 18 and is fixedly connected to one of the conveying shafts 19. The conveying shaft 19 is driven to rotate by the third motor 21. When the conveying shaft 19 rotates, the conveyor belt 20 is transmitted between the two conveying shafts 19, thereby driving the conveyor belt 20 to convey the powder.

[0029] Working principle: when it is necessary to grind the raw materials of Chinese herbal medicine slices, the raw materials are placed in the grinding box 2. The raw materials first contact the two crushing shafts 3, and one of the crushing shafts 3 is driven to rotate by the second motor 15. When one of the crushing shafts 3 rotates, it drives the transmission gear 14 to rotate. Since the two transmission gears 14 are engaged with each other, the two crushing shafts 3 are driven to rotate relative to each other, thereby crushing the raw materials of Chinese herbal medicine slices. The crushed raw materials enter the grinding box 2 and fall to the bottom end of the grinding disc 1. Then, the first motor 13 drives the driving gear 12 and the rotating gear 11 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft 6 and the grinding disc 1 to rotate, and the operator rotates the driving block 22 to drive the driving screw 9 to rotate. The driving screw 9 is driven in the screw When the drive frame 7 rotates in the hole, it drives the driving frame 7 to descend. When the driving frame 7 descends, it drives the two slides 5 to descend in the two slides 4, and then drives the grinding disc 1 to descend in the grinding box 2, so as to adjust the grinding force of the Chinese herbal medicine slices, so as to grind the raw materials of the Chinese herbal medicine slices. When the ground raw material powder particles are smaller than the diameter of the discharge hole 17, they will fall into the discharge box 16 through the discharge hole 17, and the powder will be guided to the conveyor belt 20 through the discharge box 16, while the particles with a diameter smaller than the discharge hole 17 will continue to be ground. The powder falling on the conveyor belt 20 is driven by the third motor 21 to rotate the conveyor shaft 19. When the conveyor shaft 19 rotates, the conveyor belt 20 is transmitted between the two conveyor shafts 19, thereby driving the conveyor belt 20 to transport the powder.

[0030] It should also be added that grinding grooves are evenly arranged on the circumferential surface of the grinding disc 1. When the grinding disc 1 grinds the raw materials of Chinese herbal medicine slices, the powder adhering to the circumferential surface of the grinding disc 1 is scraped back into the grinding box 2 by the scraping rack 23 as the grinding disc 1 rotates.

[0031] It should also be added that the first motor 13, the second motor 15 and the third motor 21 are all forward and reverse motors, and the rotation directions of the first motor 13, the second motor 15 and the third motor 21 can be controlled according to actual usage requirements.

[0032] In addition, the driving screw 9 rotates in the screw hole to adjust the grinding force of the grinding disc 1, that is, the height of the grinding disc 1. After the adjustment is completed, the height of the driving frame 7 can be stably fixed in the fixing frame 8 through the connection between the driving screw 9 and the thread, and the driving screw 9 will not rotate due to the vibration of the equipment.

[0033] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present disclosure and are not limiting. Although the present disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present disclosure may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and all of these should be included in the scope of the claims of the present disclosure.
