TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of Rhizoma Pinelliae praeparatum, and in particular to a Rhizoma Pinelliae praeparatum processing device and a processing technology thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a commonly used traditional Chinese medicinal material, Rhizoma Pinelliae has neurotoxicity, and its processed products are generally taken orally. Processing is a feature of the use of traditional Chinese medicines and is also the most traditional, effective and convenient method for detoxification of traditional Chinese medicinal materials.

[0003] At present, the processing method of Rhizoma Pinelliae praeparatum is as follows: Rhizoma Pinelliae is separated according to size, soaked in water until there is no dry core, and then taken out; a proper amount of Radix Glycyrrhizae is added and decocted twice, the decoction is combined, poured into lime liquid prepared by using a proper amount of water, stirred, the above-mentioned soaked Rhizoma Pinelliae is added, soaked, stirred 1-2 times a day, and the pH value of the soaking liquid is kept above 12, soaked for 7-8 days, until the section is yellow and uniform, and the taste is slightly tingling, then taken out, washed, sliced and dried.

[0004] The medicinal materials differ in size, and especially, fragments or chippings are easily generated in the slicing process, so that the appearance of Rhizoma Pinelliae is poor, which influences the economic value of Rhizoma Pinelliae, cannot guarantee the quality of Rhizoma Pinelliae, and brings potential risks to the drug takers, so it is necessary to study a processing technology of Rhizoma Pinelliae praeparatum. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to guarantee the quality of Rhizoma Pinelliae and reduce the potential risks to the drug takers, the application provides a Rhizoma Pinelliae praeparatum processing device and a processing technology thereof.

[0006] In a first aspect, the application provides a Rhizoma Pinelliae praeparatum processing device and a processing technology thereof, which adopts the following technical scheme: The Rhizoma Pinelliae praeparatum processing technology comprises the following steps: Cleaning and selecting: the medicinal materials are spread on a selecting table to remove impurities in the medicinal materials; Soaking; Washing medicinal materials: the soaked medicinal materials are contained in a cleaned mesh box, and then washed with flowing water until the water is clear, and then drained; Drying: the medicinal materials to be dried are loaded into an oven, the loading thickness is within 20 cm, the temperature is set to 50-70 DEG C, and the drying time is 8-24 hours; Slicing; Screening: the medicinal materials are screened through a winnowing device; Packed into bags.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the medicinal materials are spread on a picking table to remove impurities in the medicinal materials; soaking; the soaked materials are placed in a clean mesh box, rinsed with running water until the water is clear, and drained; the medicinal materials to be dried are placed in an oven with a box thickness of no more than 20 cm, the temperature is set at 50-70°C, and dried for 8-24 hours; cut into slices; screen the medicinal materials through air separation equipment; and packaged into bags.

[0008] The medicinal materials are screened by air separation equipment and then packaged into bags, which makes the appearance of the medicinal materials better and increases the economic value of Pinellia, thereby ensuring the quality of Pinellia and reducing potential risks to users. At the same time, vibration screening can easily cause collisions between medicinal materials, resulting in poor appearance and lower economic value. Air separation can greatly reduce the risk of the above problems, further ensure the quality of Pinellia and reduce potential risks to users.

[0009] Optionally, the screening step includes: Remove debris adhering to the medicinal materials; The air separation equipment is used to screen the medicinal materials.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, since the debris adhering to the medicinal materials cannot be removed by air separation, the debris and the medicinal materials exist at the same time, which also reduces the quality of Pinellia ternata; therefore, the debris adhering to the medicinal materials is first removed, and then the medicinal materials are screened by air separation equipment, thereby ensuring the quality of Pinellia ternata and reducing potential risks to users.

[0011] In the second aspect, the equipment for processing Pinellia ternata provided by this application adopts the following technical solutions: The processing equipment of Pinellia ternata includes a conveying mechanism and an air separation mechanism. The conveying mechanism is used to convey the medicinal materials to the air separation mechanism for air separation and then separate the air-selected medicinal materials for conveying and collecting. The air separation mechanism includes: An air separation box is provided on the frame and is used to receive the medicinal materials conveyed by the conveying mechanism; A toggle assembly, rotatably mounted on the winnowing box and used to toggle the medicinal materials in the winnowing box; The air separation component is arranged on the frame and located below the air separation box and is used to blow air to the medicinal materials to achieve air separation; The blanking assembly is arranged at the bottom of the air separation box and causes the moved medicinal materials to fall from one side of the air separation assembly to achieve air separation. When the moving assembly moves the medicinal materials, it contacts the blanking assembly and drives the blanking assembly to move and is used to drive the medicinal materials falling point to gradually approach the air separation assembly. After the moving assembly is separated from the blanking assembly, the blanking assembly moves back under the action of elastic force; The guide component is used to transport the different medicinal materials selected by wind separately.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveying mechanism realizes the conveyance of medicinal materials. The medicinal materials are moved into the air separation box, and the toggling component to toggle the medicinal materials so that the debris adhering to the medicinal materials can fall off, and the slices that are adhered to each other and gathered into a cluster are separated and dispersed, that is, the medicinal materials are independent of each other. Then the debris and medicinal materials are dropped through the unloading component, and the air separation component is started to air-separate the dropped medicinal materials, so as to realize the air separation of the medicinal materials, so that the debris and medicinal materials can be screened out, and then the guide component separates the different medicinal materials and debris for transportation, thereby improving the screening effect of the medicinal materials, ensuring the quality of Pinellia ternata, and reducing the potential dangers to the users.

[0013] The medicinal materials are less damaged by stirring, so it can simultaneously meet the requirements of less damage to the medicinal materials and removal of debris adhering to the medicinal materials, and stirring can also separate the gathered medicinal materials, thereby improving the subsequent air separation effect, and when the stirring component rotates to stir the medicinal materials, the stirring component contacts the feeding component, and the rotation of the stirring component pushes the feeding component to move, so that the falling point of the medicinal materials gradually approaches the air separation component, and the stirring component is separated from the feeding component, and the feeding component moves back to its original position under the action of elastic force, so that the dropping point of the medicinal materials is different, which reduces the wind blocking effect of the medicinal materials close to the air separation component when falling at the same position, improves the screening effect of the air separation component on the medicinal materials, can ensure the quality of Pinellia ternata, and reduce potential dangers to users.

[0014] By pushing the feeding component to move through the toggle component, the feeding component can be moved at a more reasonable distance, thereby minimizing the adverse effects of the feeding component movement on air separation, and being able to adjust the dropping point of the medicinal materials, thereby ensuring the quality of the pinellia and reducing potential dangers to users.

Two adjacent toggle plates, the mounting plate, and the winnowing box form a winnowing chamber for the medicinal materials to stay in. The toggle plates cooperate with the inner side walls of the winnowing box to form a material passage space for debris to pass through and to block the passage of medicinal materials. When the winnowing chamber rotates to the highest point, it receives the medicinal materials conveyed by the conveying mechanism and when it rotates to the lowest point, it is connected to the discharge assembly. A driving member, used for driving the rotating shaft to rotate; A plurality of turning members are arranged on the mounting plate and are respectively located in a plurality of air selection chambers. The turning members rotate under the rotation of the mounting plate to turn the medicinal materials.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving member drives the rotating shaft and multiple toggles to rotate simultaneously, so that multiple air separation chambers move, and the air separation chamber moves close to the conveying mechanism. The conveying mechanism conveys the medicinal materials and drops them into the air separation chamber located at the highest point. Then the air separation chamber moves to drive the medicinal materials to move. At the same time, the mounting plate rotates to drive the flipping member to rotate and flip the medicinal materials located in the air separation chamber, so that the debris adhering to or staying on the medicinal materials falls off, and the medicinal materials that are gathered together are dispersed and separated from each other, and the fallen debris can fall down through the material passing space to the next air separation space. The debris falls in turn until the debris passes through the discharge component and is air-selected, and the medicinal materials continue to move until the medicinal materials in the air separation chamber are connected with the discharge component, so that the medicinal materials fall down through the discharge component, and the air separation component starts to air-select the fallen medicinal materials, which can ensure the quality of Pinellia ternata and reduce the potential danger to the users.

[0017] At the same time, in order to reduce the damage caused by the toggle plate to the medicinal materials, the rotation speed of the mounting plate will be appropriately reduced, and the rotation of the flip part is driven by the rotation of the mounting plate, so that the flip part can also adapt to the rotation speed of the mounting plate, that is, the rotation speed of the flip part will be reduced, so that the debris on the medicinal materials can fall off and the risk of damage to the medicinal materials is reduced. At the same time, it also reduces energy consumption, thereby further ensuring the quality of Pinellia ternata and reducing potential dangers to users.

[0018] Optionally, the flipping member includes: A flip rod is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate and extends into the air separation chamber; A flipping piece is provided on the flipping rod and is used to flip the medicinal materials located in the air separation chamber; the mounting plate provided on the mounting hole is rotated to extend to the outside of the air separation box, and a linkage assembly connected to multiple flipping rods is provided on the outer wall of the air separation box near the mounting hole, so that the flipping piece drives the flipping rod to rotate under the rotation of the mounting plate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the mounting plate drives the turning rod to rotate through the linkage assembly, and the rotation of the turning rod drives the turning piece to rotate to turn the medicinal materials, thereby achieving stirring of the medicinal materials under the action of the rotation of the mounting plate.

[0020] The mounting plate located at the mounting hole extends to the outside of the risk box, so that the linkage assembly is located on the outer wall of the air separation box, reducing the risk of contact with medicinal materials. At the same time, the mounting slot of the other mounting plate is not connected, so that the drive can be directly fixed on the outer wall of the air separation box without the need for an additional support structure, making the structure easy to install and simple and stable.

[0021] Optionally, the linkage component includes: A plurality of gears are provided on the plurality of flip rods; A gear ring is provided on the winnowing box so that the plurality of gears are located inside the gear ring; A plurality of gear two are rotatably installed on the mounting plate and correspond to the plurality of gear one and mesh with the gear one and the gear ring.

[0022] By adopting the above technical scheme, the mounting plate rotationally drives the turnover rod, the gear one, the gear and all rotate around the mounting plate rotation point, which makes the gear two rotate relative to the gear ring, the gear ring is fixed, which makes the gear two rotate, the gear two rotationally drives the gear one and the turnover rod, so as to realize that the mounting plate rotationally drives the turnover rod.

[0023] At the same time, the gear two is located between the gear one and the gear ring, which can make the turnover rod closer to the middle position of the winnowing chamber, that is, the size of the turnover piece can be designed as long as possible, thereby improving the turnover effect of the turnover piece on the medicinal materials, improving the winnowing effect on the medicinal materials, further ensuring the quality of pinellia and reducing the potential danger to the user.

[0024] Optionally, the winnowing assembly comprises: The fan is arranged on the rack and the air outlet is directed to the side where the medicinal materials fall; The air deflector is arranged on the rack and makes the air generated by the fan blow uniformly to the medicinal materials; The filter plate is arranged on the rack and located between the fan and the air deflector and used for filtering impurities.

[0025] By adopting the above technical scheme, the fan starts to make the air pass through the filter plate for filtering, which reduces the risk of impurities moving to the medicinal materials, and then the air passes through the air deflector to blow uniformly to the medicinal materials, thereby improving the winnowing effect on the medicinal materials.

[0026] Optionally, the discharging assembly comprises: The discharging plate is arranged on the bottom of the winnowing box and slidably arranged on the side close to or away from the winnowing assembly and provided with a discharging hole for the medicinal materials to pass through; The elastic member is arranged on the winnowing box and connected with the discharging plate; The push block is arranged on the upper surface of the discharging plate and slidably arranged on the winnowing box, the pushing assembly contacts the push block to push the push block and the discharging plate close to the winnowing assembly, and the push block is separated from the pushing assembly and returns to the original position under the action of the elastic member.

[0027] By adopting the above technical scheme, the medicinal materials fall through the discharging hole, the pushing assembly rotates to close to and contact the push block, the pushing assembly rotates to drive the push block to move, and the push block moves to drive the discharging plate to move, so as to gradually close the discharging hole to the winnowing assembly, that is, to adjust the falling point of the medicinal materials, and after the pushing assembly is separated from the push block, the elastic member pushes the discharging plate and the push block to return to the original position, so as to adjust the falling point of the medicinal materials under the action of the pushing assembly, thereby improving the winnowing effect of the medicinal materials.

[0028] Meanwhile, the push block and the discharging plate always slide on the winnowing box, thereby reducing the risk of the medicine entering the sliding connection between the push block and the discharging plate and the winnowing box, and the risk of the medicine in the winnowing chamber blocking the discharging hole is also reduced by the movement of the push block and the discharging plate, thereby further improving the winnowing effect of the medicine.

[0029] Optionally, the guide assembly comprises: a guide pipe arranged on the rack and in communication with the winnowing assembly, so that the medicine and the wind generated by the winnowing assembly both enter the guide pipe for winnowing; a plurality of material guide pipes arranged on the lower surface of the guide pipe in the direction of the wind generated by the winnowing assembly and allowing different weights of the medicine to enter different material guide pipes for conveying.

[0041] The working principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: The medicine is screened through a winnowing device, and then packaged into bags, so that the appearance of the medicine is better, the economic value of pinellia ternata is improved, the quality of pinellia ternata is ensured, and the potential danger to the user is reduced; at the same time, the vibration screening is easy to make the appearance of the medicine worse and the economic value lower due to collision, and the winnowing can greatly reduce the risk of the above problems, further ensure the quality of pinellia ternata, and reduce the potential danger to the user.

[0042] The embodiment of the present application discloses a pinellia ternata processing device.

[0043] Referring to Figure 2 , the pinellia ternata processing device comprises a conveying mechanism 2 and a winnowing mechanism 3, the conveying mechanism 2 is used for conveying the medicine to the winnowing mechanism 3 for winnowing, and then the winnowed medicine is conveyed and collected separately.

[0044] Referring to Figure 2-Figure 4 , the winnowing mechanism 3 comprises a winnowing box 31, a poking assembly 4 and a winnowing assembly 7, the winnowing box 31 is fixedly installed on the rack 1, a circular moving cavity 32 is formed in the winnowing box 31, and the top end of the moving cavity 32 is in an open state; the poking assembly 4 is arranged on the winnowing box 31, and is used for poking the medicine in the moving cavity 32, so that the mutually gathered medicines can be dispersed and separated from each other, that is, the medicines are independent of each other, the risk efficiency of the subsequent process is reduced after the medicines are gathered into a group, and the debris adhered to the medicines is also dropped for collection.

[0045] The toggle assembly 4 includes a mounting plate 41, multiple toggle plates 42, a driving member, and multiple flipping members 5. Mounting holes 33 and mounting slots 34 are provided on the opposite inner side walls of the air separation box 31. The mounting holes 33 and mounting slots 34 are both circular, with their axes coinciding with the axis of the movable chamber 32. The mounting holes 33 pass through the air separation box 31, while the mounting slots 34 do not. Two mounting plates 41 are provided at intervals, and the two mounting plates 41 are rotatably mounted on the mounting holes 33 and mounting slots 34, respectively, and are interconnected by a rotating shaft 43. The axis of the rotating shaft 43 coincides with the axis of the two mounting plates 41, and the opposite side walls of the two mounting plates 41 are flush with the opposite inner side walls of the air separation box 31.

[0046] A plurality of toggle plates 42 are fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 43 and radially arranged along the rotating shaft 43. A plurality of toggle plates 42 are arranged in a circular array around the rotating shaft 43, and both ends of the toggle plates 42 are respectively pressed against the opposite side walls of the two mounting plates 41 for positioning. At the same time, a material passing space 44 is formed between the toggle plates 42 and the side walls of the movable cavity 32, and the material passing space 44 blocks the passage of medicinal materials and only allows debris falling from the medicinal materials to pass through; an air separation chamber 35 for the medicinal materials to stay is formed between two adjacent toggle plates 42 and the air separation box 31 and the mounting plate 41.

[0047] The driver is a motor, fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the winnowing box 31. Its output shaft is coaxially connected to the end of the rotating shaft 43 near the mounting slot 34. The driver is used to drive the rotating shaft 43 and the multiple toggle plates 42. Multiple flippers 5 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the multiple winnowing chambers 35. Rotation of the mounting plate 41 drives the multiple flippers 5 to rotate simultaneously, thereby flipping the medicinal materials within the winnowing chambers 35.

[0048] The air separation component 7 is arranged on the frame 1 and is located below the air separation box 31, and the air separation component 7 is used to blow air to the medicinal materials that fall from the air separation box 31. The driving member starts to drive the mounting plate 41 to move, and the movement of the mounting plate 41 drives the multiple air separation chambers 35 to move. The conveying mechanism 2 conveys the slices to the air separation chamber 35 located at the highest point, and the movement of the air separation chamber 35 realizes the conveyance of the medicinal materials; the mounting plate 41 rotates to drive the multiple flipping members 5 to stir the medicinal materials in the air separation chamber 35, so that the medicinal materials can be dispersed and separated from each other, that is, the medicinal materials are independent of each other, reducing the risk of the medicinal materials agglomerating into a mass and causing the subsequent air separation error of the air separation component 7, and also allowing the debris adhering to and staying on the medicinal materials to fall off, and then the debris can move down through the material passing space 44 under the action of gravity until the debris moves to the air separation component 7 for air separation.

[0049] The flipping member 5 includes a flipping rod 51 and a flipping plate 52. The flipping rod 51 is rotatably mounted on the two mounting plates 41, and the axis of the flipping rod 51 and the axis of the rotating shaft 43 are parallel. The flipping rod 51 passes through the air separation chamber 35. The flipping plate 52 is fixedly mounted on the flipping rod 51 and is arranged radially along the flipping rod 51. There are multiple flipping plates 52 arranged in a circular array around the axis of the flipping rod 51. The rotation of the flipping rod 51 drives the multiple flipping plates 52 to rotate and flip the medicinal materials located in the air separation chamber 35.

[0050] A linkage assembly 6 connected to multiple flip rods 51 is provided on the outer wall of the air separation box 31. The linkage assembly 6 includes multiple gears 1 61, ring gears 62 and multiple gears 2 63. The multiple gears 1 61 correspond one-to-one to the multiple flip rods 51. One end of the flip rod 51 close to the mounting hole 33 extends to the outside of the mounting plate 41, and the gear 1 61 is key-connected to the end of the flip rod 51 located outside the mounting plate 41.

[0051] The ring gear 62 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the air separation box 31 near the mounting hole 33. The mounting plate 41 is located inside the ring gear 62, and the axes of the two coincide. Gear 2 63 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the mounting plate 41, and the axes of Gear 2 63 and Gear 1 61 are parallel. Gear 2 63 is located between the ring gear 62 and Gear 1 61, and Gear 2 63 meshes with Gear 1 61 and the ring gear 62. The mounting plate 41 rotates to drive the flip rod 51, Gear 1 61, and Gear 2 63 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 43. Since the ring gear 62 does not rotate, the ring gear 62 causes Gear 2 63 to rotate. The rotation of Gear 2 63 drives Gear 1 61 and the flip rod 51 to rotate, thereby achieving the rotation of the mounting plate 41 to drive the flip rod 51 and the flip plate 52.

[0052] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 5 The air separation component 7 includes a fan 71, an air guide plate 72, and a filter plate 73.

The upper surface of the mounting frame 74 is provided with a plug-in hole, and the filter plate 73 is plugged into the plug-in hole and extends into the mounting frame 74. The filter plate 73 is evenly provided with multiple filter holes for air to pass through, and the aperture of the filter hole is smaller than that of the air guide hole. When the fan 71 is started, the outside air enters the mounting frame 74, is first filtered through the filter holes, and the filtered air is evenly blown toward the medicinal materials through the multiple air guide holes, thereby achieving air separation of the medicinal materials.

[0053] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4The air separation mechanism 3 also includes a discharge component 8 and a guide component 9. The discharge component 8 is arranged at the bottom of the air separation box 31 and allows the moved medicinal materials to fall from one side of the air separation component 7 to achieve air separation. When the toggling component 4 toggles the medicinal materials, it contacts the discharge component 8 and drives the discharge component 8 to move and is used to drive the medicinal material falling point to gradually approach the air separation component 7. After the toggling component 4 is separated from the discharge component 8, the discharge component 8 moves back under the action of elastic force.

[0055] The blanking plate 81 is slidably installed on the second air selection hole 86 and the third air selection hole 87 along the direction perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft 43, and the blanking plate 81 is always in contact with the two side walls opposite to the air selection hole 1 85. A blanking hole 84 for the medicinal materials to pass through is provided on the blanking plate 81; the elastic member 82 is fixedly installed on one end of the blanking plate 81 close to the air selection component 7, and the elastic member 82 is pressed against the side wall of the second air selection hole 86.

[0056] The push block 83 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the discharge plate 81, and the push block 83 is slidably mounted on the upper surface of the air selection hole 86 and contacts the top of the air selection hole 86; the toggle plate 42 rotates to abut against the push block 83, and the toggle plate 42 rotates to push the push block 83 and the discharge plate 81 close to the air selection component 7, so that the discharge hole 84, that is, the medicinal material dropping point, gradually approaches the fan 71, and the toggle plate 42 rotates and disengages from the push block 83. The discharge plate 81 and the push block 83 move back to their original position under the action of the elastic member 82, so that the medicinal material dropping point can be reciprocally adjusted, so that the medicinal materials fall in sequence, reducing the wind blocking effect of the medicinal materials on the side close to the fan 71, further improving the air selection effect, ensuring the quality of the pinellia, and reducing the potential danger to the user.

[0057] The guide assembly 9 includes a guide tube 91 and multiple material guide tubes 92. The guide tube 91 is horizontal and its bottom is fixedly mounted on the frame 1. The centerline of the guide tube 91 is parallel to the sliding direction of the discharge plate 81. At the same time, one end of the guide tube 91 is detachably connected to the mounting frame 74, so that the air generated by the air separation assembly 7 is blown into the guide tube 91. The upper surface of the guide tube 91 is provided with a feed hole, and the medicinal materials passing through the discharge hole 84 are input into the guide tube 91 through the feed hole. The multiple material guide tubes 92 are fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the guide tube 91 and are used to separate and transport different medicinal materials selected by air.

[0058] The conveying mechanism 2 includes a hoist 21 and multiple conveyor belts 22. The hoist 21 is fixedly installed on the frame 1 or on the ground. The hoist 21 is used to lift the medicinal materials and convey them into the air separation box 31; the multiple conveyor belts 22 are arranged corresponding to the multiple guide tubes 91, and the multiple conveyor belts 22 are used to respectively convey different medicinal materials selected by air.

[0059] The working principle of the embodiment of this application is as follows: The elevator 21 lifts the medicinal materials and transports them into the air separation chamber 35. The driving member starts to drive the mounting plate 41 and the toggle plate 42 to rotate, driving the medicinal materials in the air separation chamber 35 to move. The mounting plate 41 rotates to drive multiple flipping plates 52 to flip the medicinal materials in the air separation chamber 35, so that the medicinal materials can be dispersed and separated from each other, and the debris on the medicinal materials falls off. The debris first falls downward through the material passing space 44 until the debris and medicinal materials fall into the guide tube 91 through the discharge hole 84. The fan 71 starts to air-separate the medicinal materials in the guide tube 91. The air-separated medicinal materials enter different conveyor belts 22 through multiple guide tubes 92 for transportation, thereby realizing separate collection of different medicinal materials.

[0060] After the toggle plate 42 rotates, it moves with the push block 83 and pushes the push block 83 and the discharge plate 81 to move, so that the medicinal materials are discharged in sequence through the discharge holes 84 at different positions. The toggle plate 42 disengages from the push block 83, and the push block 83 and the discharge plate 81 move back to their original positions at the same time, thereby improving the air separation effect of the medicinal materials, ensuring the quality of the Pinellia ternata, and reducing the potential dangers to the users.

[0061] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
