[0002] Moxa sticks are cylindrical long rolls made of moxa wrapped in cotton paper. Moxa sticks are mainly used for moxibustion. Moxibustion is one of the oldest medical techniques in China and is a traditional Chinese medicine external treatment method. It can warm the meridians and dispel cold, promote blood circulation, and expel cold and dampness. It is suitable for symptoms such as wind-cold-dampness arthralgia, muscle soreness and numbness, joint and limb pain, and cervical spondylosis. Before use, moxa sticks are cylindrical long strips. When used, moxa sticks need to be cylindrical small pieces, which requires the cylindrical long strips of moxa sticks to be cut and truncated to meet the needs of use.

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] Example

[0025] See also Figure 1-3 The present embodiment provides the following technical solutions: an opening and closing separation mechanism for unloading moxa sticks of a moxa stick cutting machine, comprising a frame 1 and a unloading hopper 7 fixedly arranged on the frame 1, for guiding the waste materials and moxa sticks after cutting.

[0026] It also includes a conveyor belt 2, a movable seat 3, a material blocking mechanism 4 and a ring knife mechanism 5 arranged on the frame 1, the movable seat 3 is arranged on one side of the output end of the conveyor belt 2, the movable seat 3 is located between the conveyor belt 2 and the material blocking mechanism 4, and the ring knife mechanism 5 is arranged on one side of the material blocking mechanism 4. Through the conveyor belt 2, the movable seat 3, the material blocking mechanism 4 and the ring knife mechanism 5, the moxa stick to be cut can be transported, pushed and cut.

[0027] The movable seat 3 is driven by a reciprocating assembly 6 arranged on the frame 1, which is used to drive the movable seat 3 to feed the moxa sticks to the ring knife mechanism 5; the reciprocating assembly 6 includes a belt, which is connected to the frame 1 through a pulley transmission and is located below the movable seat 3. In this embodiment, the belt is arranged along the length direction of the conveyor belt 2, and one of the pulleys is driven by a first motor arranged on the frame 1, and a splint fixed on the belt is fixedly connected to the movable seat 3. Through the first motor, the belt can drive the movable seat 3 to reciprocate along the length direction of the conveyor belt 2, so that the movable seat 3 moves relative to the ring knife mechanism 5, so that the ring knife mechanism 5 cuts the moxa sticks passing through the movable seat 3, and the cut moxa sticks fall into the lower hopper 7.

[0028] Guide rails are fixedly arranged on both sides of the belt on the frame 1, and sliders are slidably connected to the guide rails. The sliders are fixedly connected to the moving seat 3. Through the guide rails and the sliders, the moving seat 3 can be limited so that the moving seat 3 can run stably.

[0029] An opening and closing separation mechanism is arranged on the lower hopper 7, and the opening and closing separation mechanism includes a separation groove 8 arranged on the bottom wall of the lower hopper 7, which is used to allow waste to fall into the separation groove 8 and be discharged from the lower hopper 7. The bottom of the separation groove 8 is movably connected with an opening and closing plate 9, which is used to close the separation groove 8. The separation groove 8 can be opened and closed by the opening and closing separation mechanism. When the separation groove 8 is in a closed state, the moxa sticks cut to a fixed length can be guided. When the separation groove 8 is in an open state, the cut moxa sticks and waste can be guided, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that waste and moxa sticks cannot be discharged due to material jamming, thereby avoiding machine failure and inability to operate normally due to material jamming.

[0030] The separation groove 8 is arranged on a side close to the discharge end of the lower hopper 7. By setting the position of the separation groove 8, the separation groove 8 is prevented from being too close to the feed end of the lower hopper 7. In the process of continuous separation of moxa sticks and waste materials, there is no buffer area between the moxa stick guide and the waste guide, resulting in the need for rapid opening and closing operation of the opening and closing plate 9, which will make it impossible to separate the waste materials and moxa sticks, and will also cause material jamming.

[0031] It also includes an opening and closing drive assembly arranged on the lower hopper 7, which is used to enable the opening and closing plate 9 to open and close the separation slot 8. The opening and closing drive assembly includes a rotating shaft 10 rotatably connected to the lower hopper 7, and the rotating shaft 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the opening and closing plate 9. The other end of the rotating shaft 10 is connected to a driving member for driving the rotating shaft 10 to rotate. Through the driving member, the rotating shaft 10 can be rotated forward / reverse, thereby enabling the rotating shaft 10 to drive the opening and closing plate 9 to open and close the separation slot 8.

[0032] The driving member can be a cylinder 11, the cylinder barrel of the cylinder 11 is hinged to the side wall of the lower hopper 7, the piston rod of the cylinder 11 is hinged to the rotating shaft 10, and the cylinder barrel of the cylinder 11 is hinged to the side wall of the lower hopper 7. During the reciprocating extension and retraction process of the piston rod of the cylinder 11, the rotating shaft 10 can be rotated forward / reverse, thereby driving the opening and closing plate 9 to open and close the separation tank 8.

[0033] In some embodiments, the driving member can also be a motor, which is fixedly arranged on the side wall of the lower hopper 7. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 10. The rotating shaft 10 can be reversed by the forward / reverse rotation of the motor, thereby driving the opening and closing plate 9 to open and close the separation slot 8.

[0034] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the first motor is started to make the moving seat 3 drive the moxa stick to be cut to move toward the ring knife mechanism 5;

[0035] Then, the circular knife mechanism 5 is started to make the circular knife cut the moxa stick passing through. At this time, the head end of the moxa stick is cut off, and the cut waste falls into the lower hopper 7. Then, the cylinder 11 is started to make the rotating shaft 10 drive the opening and closing plate 9 to flip, so that the separation groove 8 is in an open state. When the waste rolls into the separation groove 8, the waste is discharged from the lower hopper 7;

[0036] Then the control cylinder 11 is reset to make the opening and closing plate 9 close the separation tank 8 again;

[0037] Then, during the reciprocating motion and reciprocating feeding process of the movable seat 3, the moxa stick on the movable seat 3 can be continuously cut to a fixed length, and the cut moxa stick falls into the lower hopper 7, and the moxa stick rolls out of the lower hopper 7 along the lower hopper 7;

[0038] Finally, the remaining waste of the moxa stick falls directly into the lower hopper 7, and the opening and closing plate 9 is reopened to discharge the waste from the lower hopper 7.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the above embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
