[0030] 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.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-4The utility model provides an embodiment: it includes a bottom plate 1, a connecting plate 2 is fixedly installed on the right side of the top of the bottom plate 1, a circular groove 3 is opened on the top of the bottom plate 1, and the rhubarb that needs to be separated from the rhizome can be placed in the circular groove 3, a rotating groove 4 is opened inside the bottom plate 1, and a motor 5 is arranged at the bottom of the bottom plate 1, and a rotating rod 6 is fixedly installed on the output end of the motor 5, and the top of the rotating rod 6 and the bottom of the inner wall of the rotating groove 4 are rotatably installed, and a cutting blade 7 is fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating rod 6, and a mounting block 8 is slidably installed inside the connecting plate 2, and a limiting component for limiting the rhizome of the medicine is arranged inside the mounting block 8, so that the rhubarb that needs to be separated from the rhizome can be placed in the circular groove 3, and then the motor 5 can be started at this time, and the output end of the motor 5 drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate, and the rotating rod 6 rotates to drive the cutting blade 7 to rotate, and the cutting blade 7 rotates to cut the rhubarb rhizome inside the circular groove 3, thereby preventing scratches on the user when separating the rhubarb rhizome.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-4The limiting assembly includes two groups of U-shaped blocks 10. A clamp ring 11 is fixedly installed on one side of one group of U-shaped blocks 10, and a jacket 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the other group of U-shaped blocks 10. The rhubarb can be placed inside the clamp ring 11. At this time, the clamp ring 11 and the jacket 12 can be pushed to the side close to each other at the same time. The clamp ring 11 and the jacket 12 can move to clamp the top of the rhubarb, and then push the clamp ring 11 and the jacket 12 to the bottom. At this time, the rhubarb rhizome will be gradually cut by the cutting blade 7, so that the rhubarb can achieve the advantage of rhizome separation. A connecting rod 13 is fixedly installed inside the U-shaped block 10. The two groups of connecting rods 13 are distributed up and down, and the inner side of the connecting rod 13 is rotatably installed by an axle pin. The connecting rod 13 is located inside the mounting block 8, and can push the rear side of the connecting rod 13 outward to make the front side of the connecting rod 13 move inward. When the front side of the connecting rod 13 moves inward, it can drive the U-shaped block 10 to move inward. The U-shaped block 10 moves inward and drives the clamp ring 11 and the jacket 12 to move inward, so that the rhubarb can be limited. A connecting block 14 is fixedly installed on the right side of the connecting rod 13, and a spring 15 is arranged inside the mounting block 8. The front and rear ends of the spring 15 are both in contact with the inner side of the connecting block 14. The fixed installation enables the connecting block 14 to always bear the elastic force of the spring 15, so that the clamp ring 11 and the jacket 12 have a better limiting effect on the rhubarb. The surface of the rotating rod 6 is fixedly installed with a first synchronous pulley 16. A screw 17 is provided on the right side of the connecting plate 2. The bottom of the screw 17 penetrates through the bottom of the mounting block 8 and is threadedly installed with the mounting block 8. The bottom of the screw 17 is fixedly installed with a second synchronous pulley 18. The first synchronous pulley 16 and the second synchronous pulley 18 are installed through synchronous belt transmission. The output end of the motor 5 will drive the rotating rod 6 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating rod 6 drives the first synchronous pulley 16 The first synchronous pulley 16 drives the second synchronous pulley 18 to rotate through the synchronous belt, and the second synchronous pulley 18 drives the screw 17 to rotate. The screw 17 drives the mounting block 8 to move toward the bottom, and the mounting block 8 moves toward the bottom, driving the clamping ring 11 and the jacket 12 to move toward the bottom, so that the rhubarb can be moved to the bottom to the inside of the circular groove 3 for rhizome separation. A rectangular block 19 is fixedly installed on the top of the back side of the connecting plate 2, and the bottom of the rectangular block 19 is rotatably installed through the bearing and the top of the screw 17, which can improve the stability of the screw 17 during rotation, thereby avoiding shaking when the screw 17 rotates.

[0033] Reference Figure 1-4Six groups of reinforcing blocks 20 are detachably installed on the right side of the top of the bottom plate 1 by bolts, and the left side of the reinforcing block 20 is fixedly installed by bolts and the left side of the connecting plate 2, which can enhance the stability of the connection between the connecting plate 2 and the bottom plate 1, and avoid the excessive weight inside the connecting plate 2, which may cause the connecting plate 2 and the bottom plate 1 to break. Sliders 21 are fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the mounting block 8, and slide grooves 22 are provided on the front and rear sides of the inner wall of the connecting plate 2. The sliders 21 and the slide grooves 22 are slidably installed, which can limit the mounting block 8 and prevent the mounting block 8 from shaking under the influence of the screw 17, thereby causing the clamping ring 11 and the clamping sleeve 12 to be unable to effectively drive the rhubarb to move to the bottom in a straight line.

[0034] Working principle: firstly, place the rhubarb inside the clamp ring 11. Since the connecting block 14 has been subjected to the elastic force of the spring 15, the rear side of the connecting rod 13 will move outward at the same time, and the front side of the connecting rod 13 will move inward. When the front side of the connecting rod 13 moves inward, it can drive the U-shaped block 10 to move inward. The U-shaped block 10 moves inward and drives the clamp ring 11 and the jacket 12 to move inward, so that the rhubarb can be limited. Then start the motor 5. The output end of the motor 5 will drive the rotating rod 6 to rotate. The rotating rod 6 rotates and drives the first synchronous pulley 16 to rotate. The first synchronous pulley 16 drives the second synchronous pulley 18 to rotate through the synchronous belt. The second synchronous pulley 18 rotates and drives the screw 17 to rotate. The screw 17 rotates and drives the mounting block 8 to move to the bottom. The mounting block 8 moves to the bottom and drives the clamp ring 11 and the jacket 12 to move to the bottom, so that the rhubarb can be moved to the bottom to the inside of the circular groove 3. The rotating rod 6 rotates and drives the cutting blade 7 to rotate. The rotation of the cutting blade 7 enables the rhubarb to achieve the advantage of rhizome separation.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
