Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of eucommia bark processing, in particular to a roughening device for eucommia bark production. Background Art
[0002] Eucommia ulmoides is an economic tree species in my country. Eucommia bark is a widely used and large-volume over-the-counter Chinese herbal medicine. Eucommia ulmoides grows outdoors all year round, and many impurities accumulate on the rough bark. Moreover, the freshly peeled Eucommia bark becomes curled and uneven after drying. Chinese herbal medicines need to use the smooth tissue with rich colloid in the inner layer. During the initial processing, the curled Eucommia bark needs to be flattened, and the impurities and rough skin on the surface need to be removed before it can be used.
[0003] Traditional manual roughening usually uses scrapers and fire to repeatedly scrape and burn, which is inefficient, ineffective, and dangerous. The effect of dermabrasion varies from person to person, and the quality cannot be controlled.
