Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medicinal material processing equipment, in particular to a hot air circulation oven. Background Art

[0002] Medicinal materials refer to natural or artificially prepared plants, animals, minerals and their processed products that have the function of preventing or treating diseases; among them, plant medicinal materials account for a large proportion, such as various herbs, rhizomes, fruits, etc. In the process of medicinal material processing, since plant medicinal materials contain more or less water, drying them is a common treatment method. Drying can not only prevent the medicinal materials from spoiling and bacterial growth, maintain the color, aroma and taste of the medicinal materials, but also facilitate long-term storage and transportation, ensure the efficacy and safety, and meet the pharmaceutical and processing needs. In order to further ensure the quality and efficacy of medicinal materials, people usually use hot air circulation ovens to dry medicinal materials. This oven can not only speed up the drying speed of medicinal materials, shorten the drying time, and improve production efficiency, but also save energy, reduce exhaust gas emissions, and reduce environmental pollution through circulating air supply; in addition, the temperature in the hot air circulation oven and the drying time of medicinal materials are also key factors affecting the quality of drugs.

[0003] For example, a patent with application number CN202321495890.9 discloses a hot air circulation oven. Although this device can achieve the purpose of heating and hot air circulation drying of medicinal materials, this device does not have a device for drying materials in the circulation system. Since the hot air will take away a certain amount of water vapor when passing through the medicinal materials, the humidity of the hot air is high. When it is recycled again, there will be a problem of poor drying effect; in addition, the circulation channel of this device is small, which is not conducive to hot air circulation, and the circulation channel of this device is a tubular structure. When circulating the hot air, the hot air cannot be evenly distributed, which will affect the drying quality of the medicinal materials, causing the problem that the drying quality is difficult to guarantee. It can be seen that a new type of hot air circulation oven is urgently needed to solve the above problems.

[0017] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0028] The embodiment of the present application provides a hot air circulation oven, which solves the problem in the prior art that the hot air circulation oven has poor drying effect and uneven heating of medicinal materials, resulting in difficulty in ensuring the drying quality of medicinal materials. In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings in the specification and specific implementation methods.

[0029] This example discloses a hot air circulation oven, see Figures 1 to 5 , including an oven mechanism 1, and also including a circulation mechanism 2 connected to the oven mechanism 1, the circulation mechanism 2 includes a circulation channel 25 for circulating hot air, and an air inlet 24 for inputting hot air and connected to the oven mechanism 1, the oven mechanism 1 includes a placement plate 12 for placing objects to be dried, and an air outlet 15 for outputting hot air and connected to the circulation mechanism 2, the oven mechanism 1, the circulation mechanism 2 and the air inlet 24 and the air outlet 15 therebetween together constitute a hot air circulation system.

[0030] The storage plate 12 is also provided with storage plate through holes 121 for ventilation and drying and a storage plate handle 122 for pushing and pulling; the oven mechanism 1 also includes a plurality of groove rail groups 11 arranged therein and fixed with the storage plate 12, and a temperature sensor 16 fixed therein; the oven mechanism 1 is also rotatably mounted with an oven door 13, the oven door 13 is connected to the main body of the oven mechanism 1 through a hinge 14, and an oven door handle 131 is also provided on the oven door 13 for easy opening and closing; the operator can dock the storage plate 12 to the groove rail groups 11 at different positions to realize the drying and placement of medicinal materials of different specifications.

[0031] The circulation mechanism 2 also includes a drying filter 21, a circulation fan 22, and a heating tube 23. The drying filter 21 is installed in the circulation channel 25, and the circulation fan 22 and the heating tube 23 are fixed on the air inlet 24 from top to bottom in sequence; the circulation mechanism 2 is also equipped with a control module 26 for driving the circulation fan 22 and the heating tube 23 to work, and a fan switch 221 for controlling the circulation fan 22, and a heating tube switch 231 for controlling the heating tube 23; by setting the drying filter 21 to cooperate with the circulation fan 22, the hot air entering the oven in each cycle can be dry hot air, which can more effectively dry the medicinal materials, not only improve the drying efficiency, but also ensure the quality of the medicinal materials; in addition, in the device of the present application, the control module 26 drives the circulation fan 22 and the heating tube 23 and controls them with the corresponding switches, which are all existing technologies, and the specific working principles will not be repeated.

[0032] Since the temperature in the oven mechanism 1 will increase or decrease, the volume of the air therein will also change accordingly. Therefore, a balancing air hole 251 for balancing the air pressure is also opened below the circulation mechanism 2. In addition, since some medicinal materials have a large water content, water will seep out of the surface of the medicinal materials when heated by hot air, and flow into the bottom of the circulation channel 25 through the through holes 121 of the storage plate and the air outlet 15. Moreover, the hot air entering the circulation channel 25 has a lower temperature due to heat dissipation, and the water vapor therein will condense into water droplets and flow to the bottom of the circulation channel 25.

A temperature sensor 16 for monitoring and displaying the temperature in the oven mechanism 1 is also set in the oven mechanism 1. The temperature monitoring and display of the temperature sensor 16 here are all existing technologies, and the specific working principle is not repeated in this scheme; when the temperature reaches a certain value, turn off the heating tube switch 231, so that the heating tube 23 stops heating, and the circulation fan 22 continues to work at this time, so that while avoiding the excessive temperature affecting the effect of the medicinal materials, the medicine can also be dried continuously.
