[0026] 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.

[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 In the embodiment of the utility model, a drying device for storing Chinese herbal medicines comprises a drying box 1, a driving motor 2 is installed on one side of the drying box 1 through a mounting frame, a drying drum 3 is connected to the output end of the driving motor 2, and a transmission mechanism 4 is arranged on the drying box 1 and the drying drum 3;

[0028] The transmission mechanism 4 includes a stir-frying unit and a transmission unit;

[0029] The transmission unit is used to transmit power for the rotation of the stir-frying unit;

[0030] The stir-frying unit is used to intermittently stir-fry the Chinese medicinal herbs inside the drying drum 3;

[0031] The stir-frying unit includes a rotating rod 401, a first turning rod 402, and a second turning rod 403;

[0032] The rotating rod 401 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the drying box 1 and penetrates to the inner side of the drying drum 3. The rotating rod 401 is used to drive the first turning rod 402 and the second turning rod 403 to rotate synchronously.

[0033] The first turning rod 402 and the second turning rod 403 are fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod 401 and are located in the inner cavity of the drying drum 3. The first turning rod 402 and the second turning rod 403 are used to intermittently stir-fry the Chinese herbal medicines inside the drying drum 3;

[0034] The transmission unit includes a first gear 404, a second gear 405, and a gear ring 406;

[0035] The first gear 404 is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod 401, and the first gear 404 is used to receive the rotation thrust from the second gear 405;

[0036] The second gear 405 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the drying box 1, and the second gear 405 is used to receive the rotation thrust from the gear ring 406;

[0037] The gear ring 406 is fixed to one end of the drying drum 3 , and the rotating gear ring 406 is used to give the second gear 405 a rotational thrust.

[0038] In this embodiment: open the outer cover of the drying drum 3, place the Chinese herbal medicine inside the drying drum 3, and then start the driving motor 2 and the hot air blower on the drying box 1. The driving motor 2 will synchronously drive the drying drum 3 to rotate, and the hot air blower will dry the Chinese herbal medicine inside the drying drum 3. During the rotation of the drying drum 3, the Chinese herbal medicine inside will be synchronously driven to roll, thereby increasing the contact area between the Chinese herbal medicine and the hot air. The rotation of the drying drum 3 will also synchronously drive the gear ring 406 fixed at the end to rotate. The rotation of the gear ring 406 will synchronously give the second gear 405 a rotational thrust. The rotating second gear 405 will synchronously drive the first gear 404 to rotate. The rotating first gear 404 will synchronously drive the rotating rod 401 fixed on the axis to rotate, so that the first turning rod 402 and the second turning rod 403 on the rotating rod 401 rotate synchronously. The first turning rod 402 and the second turning rod 403, which are staggered and evenly distributed, will stir-fry the Chinese herbal medicine during the rotation process, thereby further increasing the contact area between the Chinese herbal medicine and the hot air, thereby further improving the drying efficiency.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 There are multiple first flip rods 402 and second flip rods 403, which are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the rotating rod 401.
