[0002] With the advancement of technology and the accelerated pace of life, consumers have increasingly higher demands for the nutritional components and elements in food. Traditional forms of brown sugar ginger tea can no longer meet consumers' actual needs. To enhance the nutritional value of brown sugar ginger tea and enrich it with essential trace elements such as calcium, iron, zinc, and manganese, factories incorporate traditional Chinese herbs such as ginseng, red dates, red ginseng, goji berries, platycodon, and mulberries into the brown sugar ginger tea blocks after washing, drying, and grinding. This process enriches the nutritional components of the brown sugar ginger tea, improving the efficiency of nutritional supplementation for consumers.

[0003] Previously, grinding the aforementioned Chinese herbs required multiple grinding devices operating simultaneously. Each device was responsible for grinding one or two herbs. After all the herbs were ground, the powdered herbs were poured into a mixing device for further blending, and finally mixed into brown sugar to create compound herbal brown sugar blocks. However, this processing method not only increased the workload and difficulty for operators but also increased the manufacturing cost and process complexity of the compound herbal brown sugar blocks, thereby reducing the efficiency and convenience of processing them.

[0004] In view of this, it is particularly important to design and manufacture a grinding device for use in the processing of compound Chinese herbal brown sugar blocks. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of the original compound herbal brown sugar block processing, which requires a lot of processing equipment, has high manufacturing costs, and has more complicated processing technology, which increases the workload and difficulty of the actual processing for operators, and has poor processing efficiency and convenience. Therefore, a grinding device for compound herbal brown sugar processing is proposed.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A grinding device for processing compound Chinese herbal brown sugar includes a grinding box, a discharge port at the bottom front of the grinding box, a box cover installed on the upper end of the grinding box, a feed hopper connected to the middle of the upper end of the box cover, a grinding disc fixed inside the grinding box, a drive shaft rotatably installed in the middle of the grinding box, a transmission part disposed between the grinding box and the lower end of the drive shaft, and a grinding wheel fixed on the upper end of the drive shaft and located above the grinding disc. A mixing mechanism is provided between the grinding box, the feed hopper and the drive shaft to assist in the synchronous mixing and grinding of multiple Chinese herbal medicines to improve the grinding effect and efficiency.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: The mixing mechanism includes a material distribution plate fixed inside the feed hopper and which can divide the feed hopper into multiple chambers, a material equalization plate fixed at the upper end of the drive shaft and located directly below the feed hopper, a material distribution plate fixed in the middle of the drive shaft and located below the grinding disc, a support ring fixed inside the grinding box and located below the grinding disc, and a discharge inclined plate fixed at the bottom of the inner side of the grinding box and inclined towards the discharge port.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: The upper end of the uniform material tray is fixedly connected in a ring array with multiple upward-protruding arc-shaped strips.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: The upper end of the bulk material tray is fixedly connected in a ring array with multiple bulk material partitions in the shape of right-angled trapezoids.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: The cross-section of the support ring is a right-angled triangle structure, and the inclined surface of the support ring is set towards the material tray.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: The lower end of the box cover is provided with a guide ramp that slopes outward from top to bottom.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: The transmission unit includes a transmission gearbox installed at the lower end of the grinding box and connected to the transmission shaft, and a drive motor installed at the rear end of the transmission gearbox and connected to the transmission shaft via a gear set.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: The lower end of the grinding box is fixed with four support legs at a 90° angle, and two rubber bases are symmetrically fixed below the four support legs.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: A microcomputer controller is installed at the front center of the grinding box, and the output terminal of the microcomputer controller is electrically connected to the input terminal of the drive motor.

[0015] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: In this invention, the original grinding device has been scientifically and rationally improved. A material distribution plate is installed in the feed hopper, and a material equalization plate, a material distribution plate, a support ring, and a discharge inclined plate are installed between the drive shaft and the grinding box. The separation plate allows various Chinese herbal medicines to be placed separately into the feed hopper. When the material equalization plate at the upper end of the drive shaft rotates, it can evenly process various Chinese herbal medicines and centrifugally scatter them between the grinding wheel and the grinding disc. The ground Chinese herbal medicine powder can then fall downwards onto the rotating material distribution plate, which can rotate and disperse the powder. Finally, the powder can be concentrated along the inclined surface of the discharge inclined plate and discharged through the outlet. This structure can realize continuous anti-accumulation mixing, uniform grinding, and dispersion mixing of various Chinese herbal medicines. It can realize the grinding and mixing of various Chinese herbal medicines in one device, effectively reducing the workload and difficulty of the operator's actual processing, while reducing the manufacturing cost and process difficulty of compound Chinese herbal brown sugar blocks, and improving the efficiency and convenience of processing compound Chinese herbal brown sugar blocks.

[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-3The present invention provides a technical solution: a grinding device for processing compound Chinese herbal medicine brown sugar, comprising a grinding box 1, a discharge port 101 opened at the bottom front end of the grinding box 1, a box cover 2 installed on the upper end of the grinding box 1, a feed hopper 201 connected to the middle of the upper end of the box cover 2, a grinding disc 3 fixed inside the grinding box 1, a drive shaft 401 rotatably installed in the middle of the grinding box 1, a transmission part arranged between the grinding box 1 and the lower end of the drive shaft 401, and a grinding wheel 4 fixed on the upper end of the drive shaft 401 and located above the grinding disc 3. A mixing mechanism is provided between the grinding box 1, the feed hopper 201 and the drive shaft 401 to assist in the synchronous mixing and grinding of multiple Chinese herbal medicines to improve the grinding effect and efficiency.

[0020] Specifically, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the mixing mechanism includes a material distribution plate 202 fixed inside the feed hopper 201 and dividing the feed hopper 201 into multiple chambers, a material equalization plate 6 fixed at the upper end of the drive shaft 401 and located directly below the feed hopper 201, a material distribution plate 7 fixed in the middle of the drive shaft 401 and located below the grinding plate 3, a support ring 102 fixed inside the grinding box 1 and located below the grinding plate 3, and a discharge inclined plate 8 fixed at the bottom of the inner side of the grinding box 1 and inclined towards the discharge port 101.

[0021] The upper end of the uniform material tray 6 is fixedly connected with multiple upward-protruding arc-shaped strips 601 in a ring array, which can effectively increase the contact area and contact friction between the upper surface of the uniform material tray 6 and the Chinese herbal medicines. At the same time, the arc-shaped strips 601 can effectively increase the centrifugal force applied to the Chinese herbal medicines during rotation, which can accelerate the centrifugal throwing of the Chinese herbal medicines outward, facilitating the uniform material, mixing and subsequent grinding operations of various Chinese herbal medicines.

[0022] The upper end of the bulk material tray 7 is fixedly connected in a ring array with multiple bulk material partitions 701 in the shape of right-angled trapezoids. The multiple bulk material partitions 701 gradually decrease in height from the center of the drive shaft 401 outwards, which can rotate and disperse the Chinese herbal medicine powder in the falling process step by step, so as to improve the effect of dispersing and mixing the Chinese herbal medicine powder.

[0023] Meanwhile, the cross-section of the support ring 102 is a right-angled triangle structure, and the inclined surface of the support ring 102 is set towards the material tray 7. This structure of the support ring 102 can change the movement trajectory of the Chinese herbal medicine after it is rotated and dispersed, and guide the Chinese herbal medicine grinding powder that is centrifugally diffused laterally to the discharge inclined plate 8.

[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the lower end of the box cover 2 is provided with a guide ramp 203 that slopes outward from top to bottom, which facilitates the downward discharge of the processed Chinese herbal medicine powder through the discharge port 101.

[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 1-3As shown, the transmission unit includes a transmission gearbox 5 installed at the lower end of the grinding box 1 and connected to the transmission shaft 401, and a drive motor 501 installed at the rear end of the transmission gearbox 5 and connected to the transmission shaft 401 via a gear set. When the drive motor 501 is working, it can drive the gear set in the transmission gearbox 5 to rotate, thereby reducing the rotation of the transmission shaft 401 and increasing the torsional force of the transmission shaft 401, so as to realize the stable rotational grinding operation between the grinding wheel 4 and the grinding disc 3.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, four support legs 103 are fixed at 90° to the lower end of the grinding box 1, which can support the grinding box 1 at a certain height off the ground, making it convenient for operators to put materials in and out. Two rubber bases 104 are symmetrically fixed below the four support legs 103. On the one hand, they can effectively reduce the vibration of the grinding device and transmit it downward to the ground, thereby improving the stability of the grinding device. On the other hand, they can increase the contact friction between the support legs 103 and the ground, preventing problems such as lateral movement, shaking and abnormal noise during the operation of the grinding device.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, a microcomputer controller 9 is installed in the middle of the front end of the grinding box 1. The output end of the microcomputer controller 9 is electrically connected to the input end of the drive motor 501. The settings of the microcomputer controller 9 facilitate the operator to adjust the working parameters of the drive motor 501 and control its switching.

[0028] Working Principle: During use, various Chinese herbal medicines can be poured into the cavity between the feed hopper 201 and the distribution partition 202. The operator can then use the microcomputer controller 9 to adjust the working parameters of the grinding device and switch the equipment on and off. When the drive motor 501 is powered on, it drives the transmission shaft 401 to rotate at a constant speed through the transmission gearbox 5. At this time, the equalizing disc 6, grinding wheel 4, and distributing disc 7 on the transmission shaft 401 rotate synchronously. When the equalizing disc 6 rotates, under the rotational action of multiple arc-shaped strips 601, various Chinese herbal medicines at the lower end of the feed hopper 201 are centrifugally and centrifugally scattered into the box cover 2. Under the guidance of the guide slope 203 and the combined action of gravity, the various Chinese herbal medicines are evenly scattered onto the grinding disc 3 and grinding wheel 4. When the rotating grinding wheel 4 contacts the grinding disc 3, it can grind various Chinese herbal medicines. The ground Chinese herbal medicine powder falls downward onto the rotating material distribution disc 7 under the action of gravity and equipment vibration. The multiple material distribution plates 701 on the material distribution disc 7 can rotate and disperse the Chinese herbal medicine powder during the falling process, improving the mixing effect of various Chinese herbal medicine powders. The Chinese herbal medicine powder during the dispersion process can hit the inclined surface of the support ring 102, and then change the direction of movement downward. The processed Chinese herbal medicine powder can fall onto the discharge inclined plate 8. Under the action of gravity and equipment vibration, it can be guided downward through the discharge port 101 and discharged from the grinding box 1, thus obtaining composite Chinese herbal medicine powder.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
