[0002] In the production process of Chinese herbal medicine slices, wetting and soaking are two closely connected pretreatment steps, among which wetting is usually the pre-step of soaking. The main purpose of wetting is to provide a preliminary and uniform humidity environment for the medicinal materials, laying the foundation for the subsequent soaking and processing process.
[0003] Traditional wetting methods may simply involve spraying water on the herbs or exposing them to a humid environment. However, this method makes it difficult to ensure uniform wetting of the herbs. Some herbs may be difficult to soften due to insufficient wetting, while other herbs may lose their efficacy due to excessive wetting. In addition, controlling the amount of water during the wetting process is also a problem. Too much water can cause the herbs to mold and deteriorate, while too little water will not achieve the desired wetting effect.
[0004] In addition, traditional wetting and soaking equipment often lacks intelligent and precise control systems, and it is difficult for operators to accurately grasp the degree and time of wetting, which directly affects the quality of subsequent soaking and processing. At the same time, equipment cleaning and maintenance are also issues that cannot be ignored. Inappropriate equipment design may lead to contamination and bacterial growth during the wetting process.

[0032] The medicine-wetting device for soaking and pre-treating Chinese medicine pieces of the utility model is used:
[0033] First, the user needs to put the Chinese medicine pieces to be moistened into the storage net box 52. These pieces can be added through the feeding port and closed by the cover plate 520 to ensure that the pieces will not fall out during the moistening process. The design of the storage net box 52 allows water mist to pass freely, thereby ensuring that the pieces can be evenly moistened.
[0034] Next, the user can start the water mist system. This system consists of a water tank 2, an industrial humidifier 3 and a delivery pipe 4. The industrial humidifier 3 extracts water from the water tank 2 and atomizes it into tiny water droplets, which are transported to the guide plate 10 through the delivery pipe 4. Since the guide plate 10 is hollow inside and has evenly distributed guide holes at the bottom, the water mist can be evenly sprayed from the bottom of the guide plate 10 onto the Chinese herbal medicine slices in each storage box 52 to achieve uniform wetting.
[0035] During the wetting process, in order to improve the wetting effect, the user can start the driving motor 51 installed on the outer plate 50. This motor can drive the mounting shaft 53 to rotate, thereby driving the storage net box 52 to rotate. This rotation action can promote more uniform contact between the Chinese medicine slices and the water mist, and improve the wetting effect.
[0036] After the medicine lubrication is completed, the user can move the movable plate 5 by controlling the pull-out motor 7. The pull-out motor 7 drives the adjusting screw 70 to rotate, thereby driving the movable plate 5 to be pulled out. In this process, the roller 55 at the bottom of the movable plate 5 will roll along the bottom inner wall of the medicine lubrication box 1 to ensure that the movable plate 5 can move smoothly. When the movable plate 5 is completely pulled out, the user can easily take out the Chinese medicine pieces in the storage box 52 for the next step of processing.
