[0036] See also Figure 1-6 The utility model provides a technical solution: an evaporation concentration device in the production and processing of traditional Chinese medicine preparations, comprising a tank body 1, an open end of the tank body 1 is provided with a tube 2, a support column 11 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the tank body 1, the tube 2 is rotatably connected to the tank body 1 with the support column 11 as the center, and the motion trajectory plane of the tube 2 is parallel to the opening plane of the tank body 1;

[0037] A cartridge 22 is disposed inside the tube 2 , and a height adjustment component is disposed between the cartridge 22 and the tube 2 , and the cartridge 22 is driven by the height adjustment component to perform reciprocating motion between the tube 2 and the tank body 1 .

[0038] The diameter of the tube 2 is equal to the opening diameter of the tank body 1, and the lower end plane of the tube 2 is coplanar with the opening plane of the tank body 1. The tube 2 is rotatably connected to the tank body 1 with the support column 11 as the center, so that the opening of the tank body 1 can be opened by rotating the tube 2; a medicine cartridge 22 for containing medicinal materials is installed in the tube 2, so that the medicinal materials are separated from the inner wall of the tank body 1, so that the medicinal materials are prevented from adhering to the inner wall of the tank body 1 during the decoction process and being difficult to remove; and a height adjustment component is arranged in the tube 2, and the medicine cartridge 22 is driven to move in the tube through the height adjustment component. The tube 2 and the tank body 1 make a reciprocating motion, and then the medicine cartridge 22 is stored in the tube 2 or protrudes downward on the tube 2 and extends into the interior of the tank body 1, so that when the medicine cartridge 22 is stored in the tube 2, the medicinal materials contained therein are separated from the traditional Chinese medicine preparation in the tank body 1; at the same time, the tube 2 can carry the medicine cartridge 22 to rotate on the tank body 1, so as to drive the medicinal materials away from the water vapor generated by the heating of the traditional Chinese medicine preparation, to prevent the ineffective ingredients or harmful ingredients of the medicinal materials from overflowing into the traditional Chinese medicine preparation when heated for a long time, thereby facilitating further evaporation and concentration of the traditional Chinese medicine preparation.

[0039] In this embodiment, an arc-shaped slide groove 23 is provided on the inner wall of the tube 2, and the height adjustment component includes an annular slide bar 32 and a threaded tube 31 that are slidably fitted in the arc-shaped slide groove 23.
