The material making component 23 is used to stir and granulate the raw material conveyed by the feeding component 22.

[0027] The material suction member 21 includes a hopper 211 and a material suction piece 212, wherein the hopper 211 has a material guide channel 21101 and a material storage chamber 21102 connected to the material guide channel 21101.

In addition, the hopper 211 also has a drying chamber 21103 connected to the material storage chamber 21102, and the drying chamber 21103 is used to dry the raw material.

[0028] The feeding component 22 includes a feeding shaft 221 and a driving member 222, wherein the feeding shaft 221 is driven and rotatably connected to the driving member 222, and the feeding shaft 221 is axially arranged with spiral blades, and the feeding shaft 221 is driven by the driving member 222 to rotate in the storage chamber 21102 and the drying chamber 21103 of the accumulator 211, so that the raw materials in the storage chamber 21102 can be transported to the drying chamber 21103 for drying operation.

[0029] It is understandable that the suction member 212 is activated to guide the raw material into the storage chamber 21102 of the accumulator 211, thereby completing the suction operation. When the suction operation is completed, the driving member 222 is activated to drive the feed shaft 221 to rotate, and the feed shaft 221 is driven to rotate between the storage chamber 21102 and the drying chamber 21103, so that the raw material is transported from the storage chamber 21102 to the drying chamber 21103, so that the raw material can be dried in the drying chamber 21103.

[0030] The material preparation component 23 includes a material preparation device 231, a driving unit 232 and a stirring and cutting shaft 233, wherein the material preparation device 231 has a material preparation chamber 23101 and a plurality of discharge ports 23102 connected to the material preparation chamber 23101.

[0031] It should be noted that after the raw materials in the drying chamber 21103 are dried, the driving member 222 can drive the feeding shaft 221 to rotate so as to convey the dried raw materials to the material making chamber 23101 of the material making device 231. At this time, the driving unit 232 is started to rotate the driving end, so that the stirring and cutting shaft 233 is driven to rotate, so that the stirring and cutting part 2331 of the stirring and cutting shaft 233 rotates in the material making chamber 23101, so as to perform the raw material pelletizing operation, and the raw material that has undergone the pelletizing operation is pushed from the material making chamber 23101 to the discharge port 23102 by the driven stirring and cutting shaft 233.

[0032] Preferably, the material preparation device 231 is arranged at a predetermined position on the top and communicated with the material storage device 211, so that the raw materials entering the material preparation chamber 23101 move from top to bottom under the action of gravity, so as to increase the time for the raw materials to be stirred and pelletized.

[0033] Preferably, each of the discharge ports 23102 is evenly arranged on the side of the material controller 231 to improve the raw material outlet efficiency.

[0034] Preferably, the material suction member 212 is implemented to include a vacuum generator. The driving member 222 and the driving unit 232 are both implemented to include a driving motor.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device for making Chinese medicine granules includes a material wetting component 30, and the material wetting component 30 is used to wet the raw materials entering the material maker 231 to prevent the raw materials from being severely crushed due to the stirring and granulation operations.

[0036] The wetting component 30 includes a condenser 31 and a wetting element 32, wherein the condenser 31 has a condensation space 3101 and a steam channel 3102. The condensation space 3101 is penetrated by the outer wall forming the steam channel 3102, and the condensation space 3101 is used to pass condensate. The steam channel 3102 is connected to the drying chamber 21103. The wetting element 32 is connected to the material preparation chamber 23101 of the material preparation device 231, and the wetting element 32 has a liquid passage chamber 3201, and the liquid passage chamber 3201 is connected to the steam channel 3102 for liquefied steam to pass through. In addition, the wetting element 32 is evenly provided with a plurality of wetting parts toward the side of the material making device 231 , and each of the wetting parts is arranged in the material making chamber 23101 of the material making device 231 to add liquefied steam to the material making chamber 23101 to wet the raw materials entering the material making chamber 23101 .

[0037] Those skilled in the art can understand that, when the raw materials are dried in the drying chamber 21103, the liquid components in the raw materials are passed into the steam channel 3102 of the condenser 31 in the form of steam, and the condensate in the condensation space 3101 can condense and cool the steam in the steam channel 3102, so that the steam is liquefied and flows to the liquid chamber 3201 of the wetting part 32. At this time, the liquid flowing into the liquid chamber 3201 can flow to the material preparation chamber 23101 through the wetting part, so as to wet the dried raw materials.

[0038] In this way, the steam evaporated from the raw materials can be used to moisten the raw materials entering the material preparation chamber 23101 to reduce the cost of moistening the raw materials. In addition, the moistened raw materials are unlikely to be severely crushed when the driving unit 232 drives the stirring shaft 233 to rotate, so that the size of the raw materials collected from the discharge port 23102 of the material preparation device 231 meets pharmaceutical requirements.

[0039] Preferably, the condenser 31 is arranged at a predetermined position above the wetting element 32 so that the condensed and liquefied steam portion can flow into the liquid passage chamber 3201 of the wetting element 32 from top to bottom under the action of gravity.

[0040] Preferably, the device body 10 includes a workbench 11, a lifting unit 12 and a driving frame 13, wherein the lifting unit 12 is installed on the workbench 11, and the lifting unit 12 has a lifting end. The driving frame 13 is driven and movably installed on the lifting end of the lifting unit 12, and the driving frame 13 can be moved from top to bottom and from bottom to top when the lifting unit 12 drives the lifting end.

[0041] Specifically, the material suction member 212 , the driving member 222 and the driving unit 232 are all installed on the driving frame 13 .

[0042] It can be understood that when the lifting unit 12 drives the lifting end to move the driving frame 13, the suction member 212, the driving member 222 and the driving unit 232 are all driven to move along the lifting direction of the lifting end of the lifting unit 12, so that the storage container 211 is driven to move along the lifting direction of the lifting end of the lifting unit 12, thereby, the storage container 211 can be driven to extend into the raw material container 90, so that the raw material can be introduced into the storage cavity 21102 of the storage container 211.

[0043] Furthermore, the device for making Chinese medicine granules further includes a collecting unit 40. Preferably, the collecting unit 40 is arranged below the material maker 231, and the collecting unit 40 has an inlet 401 and a collecting chamber 402 connected to the inlet 401. The inlet 401 is arranged toward the material maker 231, so that the collecting chamber 402 collects the raw materials separated from the material maker 231.

[0044] It can be understood that when the driving unit 232 drives the stirring shaft 233 to rotate, the raw materials can be pushed out by the stirring shaft 233. Due to the effect of gravity, the raw materials that escape from each discharge port 23102 can fall into the collection chamber 402 through the inlet 401, thereby completing the collection of the raw materials.

[0045] Preferably, the material controller 231 is arranged in the collecting chamber 402 of the collecting unit 40 , so as to reduce the falling height of the raw materials to prevent the raw materials after being stirred and cut from being damaged due to collision with the inner wall of the collecting chamber 402 .

[0046] In addition, the device for making Chinese medicine particles also includes a temperature and humidity detection unit 50. Preferably, the temperature and humidity detection unit 50 is arranged in the drying chamber 21103 to detect the temperature and humidity in the drying chamber 21103, so that the temperature and humidity of the raw materials being dried in the drying chamber 21103 can be accurately controlled.

[0047] Preferably, the temperature and humidity detection unit 50 is implemented as a temperature and humidity sensor.
