If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0035] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 6 The Chinese medicine boiling device of the embodiment of the utility model comprises a barrel body 100, a barrel cover 200 and a stirring structure 300. The barrel body 100 is provided with a feed inlet at the top and a discharge outlet at the bottom. A receiving space 110 is provided between the feed inlet and the discharge outlet. The receiving space 110 is used to store Chinese herbal medicine for boiling. The barrel cover 200 is installed at the feed inlet, and the barrel body 100 is provided with a sealing plate 120 for sealing the discharge outlet. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the sealing plate 120 is hinged to the barrel body 100 to facilitate slag discharge; the barrel cover 200 is connected to the barrel body 100 by fasteners, such as bolts or snaps. It should be noted that although the sealing plate 120 is hinged to the barrel body 100, after the sealing plate 120 seals the discharge port, a fixed structure is still required to keep the sealing plate 120 in the position of sealing the discharge port. The barrel cover 200 in this embodiment is connected to the barrel body 100 by bolts, but in actual production, the connection method between the barrel body 100 and the barrel cover 200 can be selected according to actual conditions; at the same time, the materials of the barrel body 100 and the barrel cover 200 can also be selected according to actual conditions.

[0037] It should be understood that the barrel 100 of this embodiment is a relatively large barrel, which is mainly suitable for Chinese medicine enterprises to produce Chinese medicine finished products. Therefore, more Chinese herbal medicines can be boiled in the barrel 100 at a time, and better boiling effect can be obtained by stirring with the stirring structure 300. Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the stirring structure 300 of this embodiment is installed on the barrel cover 200 and partially extends into the accommodation space 110; the stirring structure 300 includes an outer cylinder 310, an inner rod 320 and a blade assembly 330, the blade assembly 330 partially passes through the outer cylinder 310, the inner rod 320 is movably arranged in the outer cylinder 310 and connected with the blade assembly 330; the outer cylinder 310 is connected to a power device that drives it to rotate around its own axis, and the rotation of the outer cylinder 310 can drive the inner rod 320 and the blade assembly 330 to rotate synchronously. Specifically, the outer cylinder 310 is a cylindrical cylinder body, which is hollow inside and has an opening at one end. The outer cylinder 310 passes through the barrel cover 200. When the outer cylinder 310 is arranged in the barrel cover 200, the open end of the outer cylinder 310 is arranged above the barrel cover 200, and the other end of the outer cylinder 310 extends into the accommodation space 110. For ease of understanding, in this embodiment, the end of the outer tube 310 extending into the barrel body 100 is called the first end, and the second end is the open end; the first end of the outer tube 310 is sealed, thereby effectively preventing the medicine from entering the outer tube 310; the inner rod 320 is arranged inside the outer tube 310, and the blade assembly 330 is installed at a position close to the first end of the outer tube 310.

[0038] Furthermore, the power device generally adopts an electric motor, and the output end of the power device can be directly connected to the outer cylinder 310, or can be connected through a belt, chain, etc.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present invention, the blade assembly 330 includes a stirring blade 331, and the stirring blade 331 has a first stirring position set vertically and a second stirring position set obliquely. The inner rod 320 slides relative to the outer cylinder 310 to drive the stirring blade 331 to switch between the first stirring position and the second stirring position. Specifically, Figure 1The stirring blade 331 shown is in the first stirring position. When the stirring blade 331 is in the first stirring position, it is not easy to stick to the medicinal residue, which is convenient for discharging the medicinal residue and cleaning the stirring blade 331. However, if the stirring blade 331 is in the first stirring position to stir the Chinese herbal medicine in the barrel body 100, it is difficult to achieve the effect of turning the Chinese herbal medicine in the barrel body 100 up and down; when the stirring blade 331 is in the second stirring position, it is convenient to turn the Chinese herbal medicine at the bottom of the barrel body 100 to the top during boiling, thereby improving the boiling effect; since the stirring blade 331 is tilted when it is in the second stirring position, when the stirring structure 300 rotates, the Chinese herbal medicine at the bottom of the barrel body 100 can be turned to the upper part of the stirring blade 331 along the inclined surface of the stirring blade 331; but the stirring blade 331 in the second stirring position will accumulate more medicinal residue when discharging the medicinal residue, so it will indicate the difficulty of cleaning. Therefore, when boiling the medicinal liquid, the stirring blade 331 is switched to the second stirring position, and when discharging the slag, the stirring blade 331 is switched to the first stirring position, so that a better stirring effect can be obtained and the difficulty of cleaning can be reduced.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present invention, the blade assembly 330 further includes a connecting rod 332, and two stirring blades 331 are provided, and the two stirring blades 331 are respectively connected to the two ends of the connecting rod 332; the connecting rod 332 passes through the outer cylinder 310 in the radial direction of the outer cylinder 310, and the connecting rod 332 can rotate around its own axis. Figure 6 As shown, the two stirring blades 331 are respectively connected to the two ends of the connecting rod 332 in the length direction, and at least one stirring blade 331 is detachably connected to the connecting rod 332, so as to facilitate the installation of the blade assembly 330 on the outer cylinder 310.

[0041] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the connecting rod 332 includes a thinned section 333 and two cylindrical sections 334, the thinned section 333 is arranged between the two cylindrical sections 334; the outer cylinder 310 is provided with two oppositely arranged through holes, the cylindrical section 334 is passed through the through holes, and the thinned section 333 is connected to the inner rod 320. Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the through hole is provided on the peripheral wall of the outer cylinder 310, and the through hole communicates the inside and the outside of the outer cylinder 310. When the blade assembly 330 is inserted into the outer cylinder 310, the two cylindrical sections 334 are respectively inserted into the two through holes, and the thinned section 333 is located inside the outer cylinder 310.

[0042] In some embodiments of the utility model, a sealing structure is provided between the through hole and the cylindrical section 334 . The sealing structure may be a sealing ring or a mechanical shaft seal. The sealing structure can prevent the drug solution from entering the outer tube 310 through the gap between the through hole and the cylindrical section 334 .

[0043] In some embodiments of the utility model, the inner rod 320 is provided with a slot 321 for the thinning section 333 to pass through; when the inner rod 320 slides relative to the outer cylinder 310, it can drive the thinning section 333 to slide along the slot 321, thereby realizing the switching of the stirring blade 331 between the first stirring position and the second stirring position. Specifically, the slot 321 is provided at the first end of the inner rod 320; the slot 321 includes a first limiting section 322 and a second limiting section 323, and the first limiting section 322 and the second limiting section 323 are connected; when the thinning section 333 is passed through the first limiting section 322, the stirring blade 331 is in the first stirring position; when the thinning section 333 is passed through the second limiting section 323, the stirring blade 331 is in the second stirring position. Figure 4 The stirring blade 331 is shown to be in the first stirring position, and at this time, the thinning section 333 penetrates the first limiting section 322; Figure 5 As shown, the stirring blade 331 is in the second stirring position, and at this time, the thinning section 333 penetrates the second limiting section 323 .

[0044] by Figure 4 For example, when Figure 4 When the inner rod 320 in the outer tube 310 descends relative to the inner rod 320, the inner rod 320 also descends relative to the connecting rod 332, thereby causing the connecting rod 332 to rise along the slot 321; when the connecting rod 332 rises to the second limiting section 323, the connecting rod 332 is partially deflected to the second limiting section 323 under the shape of the second limiting section 323. Figure 5 The position is fixed, and the connecting rod 332 rotates to drive the stirring blade 331 to deflect, thereby realizing the switching of the stirring blade 331 from the first stirring position to the second stirring position. Correspondingly, the switching of the stirring blade 331 from the second stirring position to the first stirring position can be realized by the inner rod 320 rising relative to the outer cylinder 310. The stirring structure 300 of this embodiment realizes the deflection of the connecting rod 332 caused by the lifting of the inner rod 320, and then the deflection of the stirring blade, by providing a thinning section 333 on the connecting rod 332 and a slot 321 on the inner rod 320. The structure is simple, the production cost is low, and it is convenient for large-scale production.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present invention, the inner rod 320 is connected to a first driving structure 340 and a second driving structure 350. The first driving structure 340 is used to drive the inner rod 320 to move so as to drive the stirring blade 331 to move from the second stirring position to the first stirring position. The first driving structure 340 is used to drive the inner rod 320 to move so as to drive the stirring blade 331 to move from the first stirring position to the second stirring position. Specifically, as can be seen from the above, the top of the outer cylinder 310 is the second end. The second end of the outer cylinder 310 is connected to a cover plate 311. The cover plate 311 is detachably connected to the outer cylinder 310, for example, by bolt connection or snap connection. Figures 3 to 5As shown, the first driving structure 340 is an elastic member, and the two ends of the elastic member are respectively against the inner rod 320 and the outer cylinder 310; specifically, one end of the elastic member is against the end of the inner rod 320 away from the blade assembly 330, and the other end of the elastic member is against the cover plate 311; when not affected by the second driving structure 350, the elastic member can keep the stirring structure 300 at Figure 4 The second driving structure 350 is a butt bolt, which is threadedly connected to the outer cylinder 310 and butted against the inner rod 320; specifically, a threaded hole is provided on the cover plate 311, and the butt bolt is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the cover plate 311, and then the butt bolt passes through the end of the cover plate 311 and butts against the end of the inner rod 320 away from the blade assembly 330. By rotating the butt bolt, the inner rod 320 can be pushed down by the butt bolt, so that the inner rod 320 can be moved from Figure 4 Move the displayed position to Figure 5 Position shown.

[0046] It is conceivable that when the Chinese herbal medicine is boiled, the inner rod 320 is moved to the position where the inner rod 320 is pressed by rotating the abutment bolt. Figure 5 The stirring blade 331 is kept in the second stirring position to realize the up and down flipping of the Chinese herbal medicine in the barrel 100; when the slag is discharged after the boiling is completed, the elastic member drives the inner rod 320 to rise to the position of Figure 4 position, thereby driving the stirring blade 331 to remain in the first stirring position to facilitate the discharge of the medicinal residue and the cleaning of the stirring blade 331.
