[0002] Commonly used drying methods for traditional Chinese medicines include: air-drying, shade-drying, baking in a drying room, far-infrared heating drying and microwave drying equipment; the purpose of drying medicinal materials is to remove moisture, inhibit enzyme activity, prevent the decomposition of effective ingredients, and facilitate long-term storage for future use.

[0003] Existing Chinese medicine drying equipment usually uses a conveyor belt combined with hot air drying, but this method has the following defects: during the transportation process, the material is in a stationary state and the wind source is fixed, which is prone to drying dead corners. At the same time, different medicinal materials require different drying times, and it is inconvenient for users to adjust the moving speed of the conveyor belt in multiple ways, which can easily affect the drying effect. For this reason, we have launched a drying device for Chinese medicine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention;

[0029] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides a drying device for traditional Chinese medicine, comprising a guide hopper 1 arranged to be inclined downward, four support rods 2 are arranged on the outer side of the guide hopper 1, the top ends of the two support rods 2 on the back are hinged to the bottom of the guide hopper 1, two connecting plates 3 are installed on the outer side of the guide hopper 1, the top ends of the two support rods 2 on the front side respectively pass through and extend to the tops of the two connecting plates 3, the outer sides of the two support rods 2 on the front side are fixedly connected to two fixing plates 4, the tops of the fixing plates 4 are installed with springs 5, the tops of the springs 5 ​​are fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide hopper 1, an adjusting component 9 is arranged on the outer side of the front support rod 2, a vibration motor 6 is installed on the bottom of the guide hopper 1, a hot air component 7 is arranged on the outer side of the guide hopper 1, a cavity 8 is opened inside the guide hopper 1, two groups of vertical pipes 12 connected with the cavity 8 are installed on the top of the guide hopper 1, a nozzle 10 is arranged on the outer side of the vertical pipe 12, the spray holes of the two groups of nozzles 10 are arranged to be inclined downward, and a breathable cotton plate 11 is embedded on the top of the guide hopper 1.

[0030] In the utility model, before the Chinese medicine is dried, the user can start the hot air component 7 to guide the hot air into the cavity 8, and then turn on the vibration motor 6. At this time, the guide hopper 1 is matched with the spring 5 on the fixed plate 4 to make the guide hopper 1 swing. The front support rod 2 is connected with the connecting plate 3 to limit the guide hopper 1. The support rod 2 hinged on the back does not affect the swinging operation of the guide hopper 1 while ensuring the supporting effect. Later, the user can guide the Chinese medicine into the interior along the high part of the guide hopper 1, and then under the movement of the guide hopper 1, the Chinese medicine will slowly move to the low part of the guide hopper 1. During the movement, part of the hot air penetrates outward along the breathable cotton board 11 to dry the area in contact with the Chinese medicine, and at the same time, part of the hot air is ejected along the nozzle 10 outside the vertical pipe 12 to dry the Chinese medicine in the guide hopper 1. At the same time, the double drying method, combined with the continuously moving Chinese medicine, ensures the drying effect and reduces the drying dead corners. When the Chinese medicine drying operation is in progress, the user can use the adjustment component 9 to adjust the swing amplitude of the guide hopper 1 according to different Chinese medicine conditions, thereby changing the moving speed of the material and ensuring the drying time.

[0031] See also Figure 1-2 , wherein: the hot air assembly 7 includes a hot air blower 71 and two ducts 72 , the output end and the input end of the hot air blower 71 are fixedly connected to one end of the two ducts 72 respectively, and one end of the front duct 72 penetrates into the interior of the guide hopper 1 and communicates with the cavity 8 .

[0032] In the present invention, the hot air blower 71 is started to introduce the external air along the back duct 72 , and then introduced into the interior of the cavity 8 along the front duct 72 after being heated.

[0033] See also Figure 1-3 , wherein: the adjustment component 9 includes an insertion rod 91 and a group of insertion holes 92, a group of insertion holes 92 are opened to the inside of the front support rod 2, the insertion rod 91 is inserted into the inside of the bottom insertion hole 92, and the insertion rod 91 is below the connecting plate 3.

[0034] In the utility model, during the swinging process of the guide hopper 1, the connecting plate 3 will repeatedly collide with the insertion rod 91. When the user needs to reduce the moving speed of the Chinese medicine, the insertion rod 91 can be inserted into the upper socket 92 to shorten the distance between the connecting plate 3 and the insertion rod 91, thereby reducing the swinging amplitude of the guide hopper 1, thereby reducing the moving speed of the Chinese medicine and extending the drying time of the Chinese medicine.

[0035] See also Figure 1-4 , wherein: a butt joint pipe 13 for communication is installed between the nozzle 10 and the vertical pipe 12 , a rubber column 14 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the vertical pipe 12 , and one end of the rubber column 14 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the nozzle 10 .

[0036] In the utility model, a butt joint pipe 13 is used to guide hot air from the vertical pipe 12 into the nozzle 10. The arrangement of the stepping rubber column 14 can support the nozzle 10 and deform according to the swing of the guide hopper 1, thereby changing the spray range of the nozzle 10, increasing the drying area, and reducing the drying dead corners.

[0037] See also Figure 1-3 , wherein: a through hole is opened inside the connecting plate 3, and the top end of the front support rod 2 passes through and extends to the outside of the through hole.

[0038] In the utility model, the through hole is used to limit the front support rod 2, and at the same time, the phenomenon of the connection plate 3 and the front support rod 2 being stuck and blocked during the movement of the guide hopper 1 is reduced.

[0039] See also Figure 1-4 , wherein: the material of the butt joint pipe 13 is a plastic hose; while ensuring the air guiding effect, it is not easy to affect the movement of the nozzle 10.

[0040] See also Figure 1 , wherein: a counterweight ball is installed at the bottom end of the support rod 2, and anti-slip grooves are arranged on the outside of the counterweight ball.

[0041] In the utility model, the setting of the counterweight ball is adopted to ensure the stability of the whole device, and the setting of the anti-slip pattern makes it difficult for the position of the guide hopper 1 to shift during the drying process.

[0042] It should be noted that the various devices in this application are common devices in the market, and can be selected according to specific needs during specific use. The circuit connection relationship of each device belongs to a simple series and parallel connection circuit. There is no innovation in the circuit connection. Those skilled in the art can easily implement it. It belongs to the existing technology and will not be elaborated.

[0043] The above is only a preferred specific implementation of the utility model; however, the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical solution and improved ideas of the utility model within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
