Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of Chinese medicinal material cleaning equipment, and particularly relates to a rosemary cleaning device for rosemary processing. Background Art
[0002] Rosemary is a shrub belonging to the dicotyledons, Lamiaceae family, and genus Rosmarinus. It prefers warm climates. Antioxidants and rosemary essential oil with excellent antioxidant properties can be extracted from the flowers and leaves of rosemary. Rosemary antioxidants are widely used in medicine, fried foods, oil-rich foods, and the preservation of various oils; while rosemary essence is used in spices, air fresheners, mosquito repellents, and daily chemical industries such as sterilization and insecticides. When processing rosemary, it is necessary to use a cleaning device to clean it.
[0003] Most of the existing Chinese medicinal material cleaning machines use a pressure pump to pump clean water to directly rinse the medicinal materials. However, since a large number of Chinese medicinal materials need to be cleaned each time and they are in a state of accumulation inside the equipment, it is difficult to clean the sludge attached to the Chinese medicinal materials if they are directly rinsed with clean water in this state. This is especially true for shrubs such as rosemary, which have small gaps and therefore it is difficult to clean the rosemary at the bottom. In order to improve the cleaning effect, some cleaning equipment will be equipped with a stirring mechanism inside the equipment. For rosemary, the stirring mechanism will constantly collide with the rosemary during the stirring process, which may damage the rosemary and thus affect the medicinal properties of the rosemary. Therefore, this cleaning equipment is not suitable for cleaning rosemary. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the problems in the prior art, thereby providing a rosemary cleaning device for rosemary processing which has a simple and reasonable structure, strong practicality and good cleaning effect.

[0006] Furthermore, the rotating shaft is assembled by splicing several short shafts, the top end of the short shaft is provided with a rotation limit hole, and the bottom end of the short shaft is provided with a rotation limit shaft matching the rotation limit hole. When connected, the rotation limit shaft of the upper short shaft is inserted into the rotation limit hole of the lower short shaft. The rotation limit shaft and the rotation limit hole can slide relative to each other along the axial direction but cannot rotate relative to each other. Each short shaft is connected to one or more mesh layers, which makes it convenient to place the mesh layers with rosemary placed on them into the cleaning bucket layer by layer, making the use of the device more convenient.
[0007] Furthermore, the rotation limiting hole and the rotation limiting shaft adopt a regular polygonal structure with matching cross-sectional shapes. When using and installing, the rotation limiting shaft of the upper short shaft can be directly inserted into the rotation limiting hole of the lower short shaft, which is easy to operate.
[0008] Furthermore, the spherical connection mechanism includes a spherical rotating seat fixed at the center of the mesh layer, the spherical rotating seat is rotatably connected to the outside of the spherical fixed seat, the spherical fixed seat is fixed on the rotating shaft, and a circumferential locking mechanism is provided between the spherical fixed seat and the spherical rotating seat. The angle between the mesh layer and the axial direction of the rotating shaft can be adjusted through the connection between the spherical rotating seat and the spherical fixed seat, and the circumferential locking mechanism can ensure that the mesh layer can rotate with the rotating shaft.
[0009] Furthermore, the circumferential locking mechanism includes a limit rod fixed on the spherical fixed seat, the outer end of the limit rod is slidably set in the arc limit groove, and the arc limit groove is set on the inner side of the spherical rotating seat. The sliding connection between the limit rod and the arc limit groove allows the mesh layer to swing up and down along the arc limit groove, and also to rotate and swing around the axial direction of the two limit rods, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the angle between the mesh layer and the axial direction of the rotating shaft.
[0010] Furthermore, the swing drive mechanism includes a driving rod arranged at a lower surface of the mesh layer plate near the edge position, the driving rod is located on the mesh layer plate in the direction corresponding to the two limit rods, the driving rod is slidably arranged on the upper surface of the driving plate, the driving plate is fixed on the inner side wall of the cleaning bucket and forms an elliptical closed loop with one side high and the other side low on the inner side wall of the cleaning bucket. In the process of the mesh layer plate rotating with the rotating shaft, the bottom ends of the two driving rods slide along the upper surface of the driving plate respectively. Under the support of the driving plate, there is relative movement in both vertical and horizontal directions between the rosemary on the mesh layer plate and the water in the cleaning bucket, thereby achieving a better cleaning effect on the rosemary.
[0011] Furthermore, a ball is connected to the bottom end of the driving rod, and the ball is arranged to roll on the upper surface of the driving plate. The design of the ball can greatly reduce the friction between the driving rod and the driving plate.
[0012] Furthermore, the angle between the highest points of two adjacent driving plates is 90°.

[0015] 2. The utility model is provided with a water injection port at the top of the cleaning barrel and a nozzle on the inner side wall of the cleaning barrel. Clean water is quickly injected into the cleaning barrel through the water injection port to soak the rosemary in the cleaning barrel, so that the sludge attached to the rosemary becomes loose, which is more conducive to cleaning, thereby greatly reducing the sludge remaining in the gaps of the rosemary and greatly improving the cleaning quality; the rosemary on the mesh layer can be sprayed and flushed by the nozzle, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the rosemary.
[0016] 3. In the utility model, in the process of the rotating shaft driving the mesh layer and the rosemary on the mesh layer to rotate, the inclination direction of the mesh layer is constantly changing within the range of 360° around the axial direction of the rotating shaft, and the height and direction of the rosemary on the mesh layer are constantly changing accordingly. The mesh layer drives the rosemary above it to rotate from different directions relative to the water in the washing bucket. The relative motion between the rosemary and the clean water in the washing bucket can rinse the dirt on the rosemary, and the rosemary can be sprayed and flushed from different directions, further ensuring the cleaning effect of the rosemary.

[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, a rosemary cleaning device for rosemary processing includes a cleaning bucket 1, the top of the cleaning bucket 1 is open and an end cover 2 is provided on the top of the cleaning bucket, a water inlet 3 and a drain outlet 4 are respectively provided on the end cover 2 and the bottom surface of the cleaning bucket 1, a placement rack is provided in the cleaning bucket, the placement rack includes a rotating shaft 5 and a mesh layer plate 6 connected to the rotating shaft 5 and rotating with the rotating shaft 5, the top of the rotating shaft 5 is fixedly connected to a rotating motor 7, and the rotating motor 7 is fixed on the end cover 2 at the top of the cleaning bucket 1 On the inner wall of the cleaning barrel 1, spray pipes 8 are respectively provided between adjacent mesh layers 6, and the spray pipes 8 are connected to the water tank 9. A nozzle 10 is provided on the spray pipe 8. The mesh layer 6 is connected to the rotating shaft 5 through a spherical connection mechanism. When the mesh layer 6 rotates with the rotating shaft 5, the angle between the straight line of any diameter on the mesh layer 6 and the horizontal plane changes continuously, that is, the mesh layer 6 can swing up and down within a certain range, and the mesh layer 6 is connected to a swing drive mechanism.
[0030] When the utility model is used, the rosemary to be cleaned is sequentially placed on the mesh layer plate 6 in the cleaning bucket 1, and then clean water is injected into the cleaning bucket 1 through the water injection port 3 to soak the rosemary in the cleaning bucket 1, so that the mud attached to the rosemary becomes loose, which is more conducive to cleaning. In order to flush down the large pieces of mud attached to the rosemary, the rotating motor 7 can be started during the soaking process, and the rotating motor 7 drives the mesh layer plate 6 and the rosemary on the mesh layer plate 6 to rotate relative to the clean water in the cleaning bucket 1 through the rotating shaft 5. The relative movement between the clean water and the rosemary can more conveniently flush down the mud attached to the rosemary. The mesh layer plate 6 is connected to the rotating shaft 5 by a spherical connecting mechanism. During the rotation of the mesh layer plate 6 with the rotating shaft 5, the height of the rosemary on the mesh layer plate 6 in the cleaning bucket 1 and the direction of the relative movement between the rosemary and the clean water also change continuously within a certain range, so that the rosemary can be flushed and cleaned from different directions. Afterwards, the waste water in the cleaning bucket 1 is discharged through the drain port 4, and water is sprayed onto the rosemary on the mesh layer plate 6 through the nozzle 10 to perform a secondary flushing of the rosemary. During this process, in order to ensure the cleaning effect of the rosemary, the rotary motor 7 can also be started to drive the mesh layer plate 6 and the rosemary to rotate.

When connected, the rotation limiting shaft 13 of the upper short shaft 11 is inserted into the rotation limiting hole 12 of the lower short shaft 11, and the rotation limiting shaft 13 and the rotation limiting hole 12 can slide relative to each other along the axial direction but cannot rotate relative to each other. Each short shaft 11 is connected to one or more mesh layers 6. When in use, the mesh layers 6 with rosemary can be placed layer by layer in the cleaning bucket. The cooperation between the rotation limiting hole 12 at the top of the rotating shaft 11 and the rotation limiting shaft 13 on the adjacent rotating shaft 11 can ensure that all rotating shafts rotate at the same speed.
[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotation limiting hole 12 and the rotation limiting shaft 13 adopt a regular polygon structure with matching cross-sectional shapes. When using and installing, the rotation limiting shaft of the upper short shaft can be directly inserted into the rotation limiting hole of the lower short shaft, which is easy to operate.
[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2As shown, the spherical connection mechanism includes a spherical rotating seat 14 fixed at the center of the mesh layer 6, the spherical rotating seat 14 is rotatably connected to the outside of the spherical fixing seat 15, and the spherical fixing seat 15 is fixed on the rotating shaft 5. A circumferential locking mechanism is provided between the spherical fixing seat 15 and the spherical rotating seat 14. Through the rotational connection between the spherical rotating seat 14 and the spherical fixing seat 15, the mesh layer 6 can be freely rotated in the horizontal direction relative to the rotating shaft 5 or flipped within a certain angle range, and the circumferential locking mechanism locks the relative horizontal rotation between the mesh layer 6 and the rotating shaft 5, ensuring that the mesh layer 6 can rotate with the rotating shaft 5, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the angle between the mesh layer 6 and the axial direction of the rotating shaft 5.
[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the circumferential locking mechanism includes a limiting rod 16 fixed on the spherical fixing seat 15, and the outer end of the limiting rod 16 is slidably set in the arc limiting groove 17. The arc limiting groove 17 is set on the inner side of the spherical rotating seat 14. The sliding connection between the limiting rod 16 and the arc limiting groove 17 allows the mesh layer 6 to swing up and down along the arc limiting groove 17, and also to rotate and swing around the axial direction of the two limiting rods 16, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the angle between the mesh layer 6 and the axial direction of the rotating shaft 5.
[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and 3 As shown, the swing drive mechanism includes a driving rod 18 arranged at a lower surface of the mesh layer plate 6 near the edge position, and the driving rod 18 is located on the mesh layer plate 6 in a direction corresponding to the two limit rods 16 (or perpendicular to the direction of the connection line of the two limit rods 16), and the driving rod 18 is slidably arranged on the upper surface of the driving plate 18, and the driving plate 18 is fixed on the inner side wall of the cleaning bucket 1 and forms an elliptical closed loop with one side high and the other side low on the inner side wall of the cleaning bucket 1. In the process of the mesh layer plate 6 rotating with the rotating shaft 5, the bottom ends of the two driving rods 18 slide along the upper surface of the driving plate 18 respectively. Under the support of the driving plate 18, there is relative movement in both vertical and horizontal directions between the rosemary on the mesh layer plate 6 and the water in the cleaning bucket 1, thereby achieving a better cleaning effect on the rosemary.
[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the bottom end of the driving rod 18 is connected to a ball 20 , and the ball 20 is arranged to roll on the upper surface of the driving plate 19 . The design of the ball 20 can greatly reduce the friction between the driving rod 18 and the driving plate 19 .
[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1As shown, the angle between the highest points of two adjacent driving plates 19 is 90°, that is, one is located in front of / behind the rotating shaft and the other is located on the left / right side of the rotating shaft. The adjacent mesh layers 6 have different relative movement directions of the water in the washing barrel 1, that is, the adjacent mesh layers 6 apply forces in different directions to the clean water in the washing barrel 1, thereby causing the water in the washing barrel 1 to form turbulence, so as to better rinse and clean the rosemary.
[0038] The above is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and only specifically describes the technical principles of the present invention. These descriptions are intended only to explain the principles of the present invention and should not be construed in any way as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
