Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Chinese medicinal material processing, in particular to a Chinese medicinal material drying machine with a turnover mechanism. Background Art
[0002] Chinese medicine has a history of thousands of years. It is the extremely rich experience of the Chinese people in fighting diseases for a long time and has made great contributions to the prosperity of the Chinese nation. As the application fields of Chinese herbal medicines become wider and wider, the production requirements of Chinese herbal medicine manufacturers are also increasing. All Chinese herbal medicine manufacturers are trying to increase their production. Herbs account for the majority of Chinese herbal medicines. In the processing of Chinese herbal medicines, many Chinese herbal medicines need to be dried.
[0003] There are many existing technologies for Chinese herbal medicine dryers, such as:
[0004] Chinese patent announcement number CN213273663U discloses a Chinese herbal medicine drying machine, which includes a first drying unit, a second drying unit and a hot air blower; the first drying unit includes a screw conveyor, the screw conveyor includes a conveying pipe, a tube wall of the conveying pipe is provided with an annular inner cavity, the inner wall of the conveying pipe is provided with an air outlet hole connecting the annular inner cavity with the inside of the conveying pipe, the outer wall of the conveying pipe is provided with a first air inlet pipe connected with the annular inner cavity, and the first air inlet pipe is connected with the air outlet of the hot air blower; the second drying unit includes a drying cylinder and a stirrer for stirring the Chinese herbal medicine in the drying cylinder, the drying cylinder is provided with a feed port corresponding to the discharge port of the screw conveyor, an annular cavity is provided on the cylinder wall of the drying cylinder, the inner wall of the drying cylinder is provided with a blowing hole connecting the annular cavity with the inside of the drying cylinder, the outer wall of the drying cylinder is provided with a second air outlet pipe connected with the annular cavity, and the second air outlet pipe is connected with the air outlet of the hot air blower. The utility model improves the drying efficiency and effect of Chinese herbal medicines.
[0005] When drying medicinal materials, the existing Chinese medicinal material dryer usually puts fresh medicinal materials in the drying chamber and then dries them through the drying mechanism. If the amount of medicinal materials to be dried is large, the medicinal materials piled up at the bottom will have a lower drying efficiency due to the slow air flow around them. The general way to deal with the above problem is to manually turn the medicinal materials over at regular intervals. However, due to the high temperature in the drying chamber, the drying mechanism needs to be turned off before the medicinal materials are turned over manually to prevent burns. The medicinal materials can only be turned over after the temperature in the drying chamber is lowered, and this process greatly slows down the drying rate of the Chinese medicinal materials. For example, a Chinese medicinal material dryer proposed in the above patent dries the medicinal materials in each drying unit through a hot air blower, and continues to stir the medicinal materials through a stirrer during the drying process. However, due to the brittle physical properties of Chinese medicine, the stirrer will affect the medicinal properties of some rare medicinal materials after the medicinal materials are crushed, thereby causing economic losses.
[0006] In view of this, we propose a Chinese medicinal material dryer with a flipping mechanism to improve the shortcomings of the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0030] Working principle: When the Chinese medicinal material dryer with a flipping mechanism provided by the utility model is used, the condensation component 50 is used to discharge the condensed water generated in the drying chamber 10, and the drying component 30 is used to dry the Chinese medicinal materials added to the drying chamber 10. At the same time, the position adjustment component 40 is used to adjust the position of the drying component 30 in the drying chamber 10, and the flipping component 20 is used to drive the Chinese medicinal materials to be dried to automatically flip.
[0031] In order to drive the Chinese medicinal materials to be dried to automatically flip over, the flipping assembly 20 includes a pair of spaced limit bolts 21, a cylinder 22 is provided at the bottom of the limit bolt 21, the limit bolt 21 is fixedly connected to the piston end of the cylinder 22, a flip cylinder 23 is rotatably connected between the two limit bolts 21, a plurality of protrusions 24 are provided on the inner wall of the flip cylinder 23, and the flip cylinder 23 is driven by a servo motor; after the power is turned on, the servo motor drives the flip cylinder 23 coaxially connected to its own output shaft to rotate, and the Chinese medicinal materials follow the flip cylinder 23 to rotate from the bottom to the top under the drive of the protrusions 24, and after losing support, the Chinese medicinal materials fall to the bottom of the flip cylinder 23 under the action of their own gravity, thereby completing the flipping of the Chinese medicinal materials.
[0032] Considering the need to dry the Chinese medicinal materials added to the drying chamber 10 and adjust the position of the drying assembly 30 in the drying chamber 10, the drying assembly 30 includes a mounting frame, in which a fan 31 is rotatably connected, and a plurality of fan blades 32 are provided on a side of the fan 31 close to the flip cylinder 23, and gears 33 are coaxially connected to the same side of the plurality of fan blades 32, and racks 34 are meshed on the periphery of the plurality of gears 33, and the fan 31 and the fan blades 32 are driven by a servo motor; the positioning assembly 40 includes a plurality of parallel slide rails 41, on which a plurality of slide seats 42 are slidably connected, and in which a plurality of pulleys 43 are rotatably connected, and the slide seats 42 are fixedly connected to the mounting frame, and the pulleys 43 are driven by the servo motor; after the power is turned on, the servo motor drives the slide rails 41 to rotate. The fan 31 coaxially connected to its own output shaft rotates, and the servo motor coaxially connected to the fan blade 32 drives the fan blade 32 to swing back and forth left and right through the output shaft, and the fan blade 32 drives the gear 33 coaxially connected to itself to rotate back and forth, and the gear 33 drives the remaining gears 33 to rotate back and forth through the outer rack 34, and the remaining gears 33 drive the fan blade 32 coaxially connected to itself to swing back and forth left and right, so that the wind blown out by the fan 31 is evenly blown to the Chinese medicinal materials in the turning cylinder 23.

The one-way valve 54 controls the connecting hole 52 to only allow the air in the drying chamber 10 to be discharged to the outside, thereby preventing the outside air containing dust from entering the drying chamber 10. The drying component 30 is used to dry the Chinese medicinal materials added to the drying chamber 10, and the position adjustment component 40 is used to adjust the position of the drying component 30 in the drying chamber 10. Specifically, after the power is turned on, the servo motor drives the fan 31 coaxially connected to its own output shaft to rotate, and the servo motor coaxially connected to the fan blade 32 drives the fan blade 32 to move left and right through the output shaft.
