Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece processing technology, specifically a drum cleaning machine for processing traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) decoction pieces are TCM raw materials that have undergone processing according to TCM theory and methods, and can be directly used in TCM clinical practice. This concept indicates that there is no absolute boundary between TCM raw materials and TCM decoction pieces. TCM decoction pieces include some sliced TCM raw materials processed at the place of origin, whole TCM raw material decoction pieces, and decoction pieces that have been cut or processed.
[0003] In existing technology, the feeding hopper is used to add Chinese herbal medicine slices into the cleaning tank. A spray plate and water pipes are used to spray water onto the herbs, allowing for better contact between the herbs and the sprayed water for initial cleaning. Two cleaning rods scrub away dust adhering to the outer surface of the herbs. Rotation of the rotating rod engages two gears, causing the cleaning rods to rotate for more effective cleaning. Simultaneously, a partially rotating gear engages with the gear ring, causing the sliding rod to move up and down, thus moving the support rod and rotating the screening plate to reduce herbal medicine accumulation. However, this existing technology cannot continuously clean the herbs without stopping the machine, indicating significant room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0023] Specifically, when the second motor 602 is turned on, the output shaft of the second motor 602 rotates, which drives the drive shaft 603 to rotate. The rotation of the drive shaft 603 drives the first gear 604 to rotate, and the rotation of the first gear 604 drives the second gear 605, causing the cleaning cylinder 401 to rotate around the fixed ring 303.

Inside 1007, piston 1005 and water pump 1007 are slidably connected. Water pump 1007 is fixedly connected to water inlet pipe 1008 and water outlet pipe 1009. Water outlet pipe 1009 is fixedly connected to water spray pipe 1013. Water spray pipe 1013 and rotating sleeve 904 are rotatably connected.

[0027] Specifically, the rotation of the rotating shaft 901 will drive the eccentric block 1001 to rotate, and the eccentric block 1001 will drive the collar 1002 to shift. Under the drive of the third rotating seat 1003, the pull rod 1004 will extend and retract, which in turn will drive the piston 1005 to extend and retract along the water pump 1007. Water is drawn into the water pump 1007 through the filter head 1010, and then discharged from the water inlet pipe 1008, and then enters the water spray pipe 1013, so that water is sprayed out from the water spray hole 1014 to clean the Chinese herbal medicine pieces.
[0028] In the implementation of this invention, firstly, cleaning water is poured into the cleaning cylinder mechanism 4, and then the Chinese herbal medicine pieces are thrown into the cleaning cylinder mechanism 4. At this time, the drive mechanism 6 is activated, which drives the cleaning cylinder mechanism 4 to rotate, thereby causing the Chinese herbal medicine pieces to tumble. Simultaneously, the first motor 8 is activated, and the rotation of the output shaft of the first motor 8 drives the rotating cleaning rod mechanism 9 to rotate, thereby cleaning the Chinese herbal medicine pieces. At the same time, the rotating cleaning rod mechanism 9 drives the water spray pipe mechanism 10 to clean the Chinese herbal medicine pieces. When it is necessary to discharge the material, the length of the telescopic rod mechanism 5 is adjusted. At this time, under the drive of the rotating sleeve mechanism 3, the tilt state of the cleaning cylinder mechanism 4 can be changed, which causes the discharge baffle mechanism 7 to open, thereby discharging the material.
[0029] The present invention can adjust the tilt angle of the washing cylinder mechanism 4 by setting the telescopic rod mechanism 5 and the rotating sleeve mechanism 3. It can block the Chinese herbal medicine pieces with the discharge baffle mechanism 7 and realize the feeding at the same time. The driving mechanism 6 can drive the washing cylinder mechanism 4, thereby making the washing cylinder mechanism 4 rotate, which in turn causes the Chinese herbal medicine pieces to tumble inside the washing cylinder mechanism 4. The first motor 8 can drive the rotating washing rod mechanism 9 to clean the Chinese herbal medicine pieces inside the washing cylinder mechanism 4. The water spray pipe mechanism 10 can spray water to rinse the Chinese herbal medicine pieces inside the washing cylinder mechanism 4.
