DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] The following further describes the present utility model in conjunction with embodiments.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model provides a raw material drying device for traditional Chinese medicine production, including a drying cylinder 1, a plurality of support columns 2 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the drying cylinder 1, a heating jacket 3 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drying cylinder 1, a control panel 4 is fixedly connected to the front end of the heating jacket 3, a feed pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the drying cylinder 1 near the front end position, a dispersion mechanism 6 is arranged at the top of the feed pipe 5, connecting plates 7 are fixedly connected to both inner walls of the drying cylinder 1, an inner pipe sleeve 8 is fixedly connected between the two connecting plates 7, a first servo motor 9 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the top of the drying cylinder 1, the output end of the first servo motor 9 penetrates through the top of the drying cylinder 1 and is fixedly connected to a first rotating shaft 10, a plurality of groups of evenly distributed spiral blades 11 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first rotating shaft 10, an exhaust valve 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the drying cylinder 1 near the rear end position, and a discharge pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drying cylinder 1.

[0023] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, it is worth specifically noting that shock pads are fixedly connected to the bottoms of multiple support columns 2. The shock pads can effectively absorb and reduce the vibrations generated during the operation of the equipment, protect the equipment and the surrounding environment, reduce noise, and increase the stability of the support columns 2, preventing the equipment from shifting or tilting due to vibrations. This improves the operational safety and precision of the drying device, while reducing the impact of vibrations on the equipment and lowering the wear of mechanical components, contributing to extending the service life of the equipment.

[0024] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 it is worth specifically noting that evenly distributed heating wires are installed inside the heating sleeve 3. The even distribution of the heating wires can ensure a uniform temperature inside the heating sleeve 3, avoid hot spots or cold spots, improve the drying uniformity of the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials, and the uniform heating can more effectively accelerate the evaporation of moisture, shorten the drying time, thereby improving production efficiency. At the same time, the uniform heating can optimize energy use, reduce energy waste, and lower operating costs.

[0025] Further, as shown in Figure 3 it is worth specifically noting that the spiral blade 11 is arranged inside the inner pipe sleeve 8 to ensure that the rotation of the spiral blade 11 lifts the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials that fall at the bottom of the drying cylinder 1. The traditional Chinese medicine raw materials pass through the bottom of the inner pipe sleeve 8 and are discharged from its top again, thus realizing the full circulation and stirring of the upper and lower layers of the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials inside the drying cylinder 1.

[0026] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 it is worth specifically noting that a pipe cap is threadedly connected to the bottom of the feeding pipe 13. The threadedly connected pipe cap can effectively seal the bottom of the feeding pipe 13, prevent the leakage or loss of raw materials during the drying process, ensure the integrity of the production process, and the threadedly connected pipe cap is convenient for disassembly and reinstallation, making the equipment maintenance and cleaning work more convenient, maintaining the sanitary state of the equipment. By disassembling the pipe cap, the state of the raw materials inside the feeding pipe 13 can be conveniently inspected and adjusted to ensure the smooth progress of the drying process.

[0027] According to the above working process, it can be seen that by setting the first servo motor 9 to drive the first rotating shaft 10 to rotate, the spiral blade 11 rotates to lift the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials that fall at the bottom of the drying cylinder 1. The traditional Chinese medicine raw materials pass through the bottom of the inner pipe sleeve 8 and are discharged from its top again, thus realizing the full circulation and stirring of the upper and lower layers of the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials inside the drying cylinder 1, ensuring the uniform distribution of heat and moisture. The uniform mixing helps to avoid local overheating or overcooling, thus avoiding the problem of uneven drying and improving the quality of the final product.

[0028] Further, as shown in Figure 4As shown in the figure, it is worth specifically explaining that the dispersing mechanism 6 includes a feed trough 601 fixedly connected to the top of the material guiding pipe 5. A cover plate 602 is rotatably connected to the top of the feed trough 601. Two second servo motors 603 are fixedly connected to the rear end of the feed trough 601. The output ends of the two second servo motors 603 penetrate through the rear end of the feed trough 601 and are fixedly connected to second rotating shafts 604. A plurality of groups of evenly distributed dispersing blades 605 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the two second rotating shafts 604. By setting the dispersing mechanism 6, the two second servo motors 603 are turned on to drive the second rotating shafts 604 to rotate, so that the dispersing blades 605 disperse the agglomerated traditional Chinese medicine raw materials. The agglomerated traditional Chinese medicine raw materials are fully dispersed before the drying work. The surface area of the dispersed traditional Chinese medicine raw material particles increases, and the water evaporation speed is accelerated, thereby shortening the overall drying time and improving the production efficiency.

[0029] Furthermore, as Figure 4 shown in the figure, it is worth specifically explaining that the two second servo motors 603 rotate in opposite directions. The reverse rotation of the two second servo motors 603 can form a more effective stirring and dispersing effect, so that the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials are more evenly dispersed, reducing the agglomeration phenomenon. The two second servo motors 603 rotating in opposite directions can effectively prevent the raw materials from accumulating or blocking during the dispersing process, improving the working efficiency and stability of the equipment.

[0030] The working process of this solution is as follows: During actual use, the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials to be dried are poured into the feed trough 601. The two second servo motors 603 are turned on to drive the second rotating shafts 604 to rotate, so that the dispersing blades 605 disperse the agglomerated traditional Chinese medicine raw materials. The dispersed traditional Chinese medicine raw materials enter the drying cylinder 1. The heating sleeve 3 is turned on through the control panel 4, so that the heating wire inside the heating sleeve 3 generates heat to heat the internal environment of the drying cylinder 1. At the same time, the first servo motor 9 is turned on to drive the first rotating shaft 10 to rotate, so that the spiral blades 11 rotate to lift the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials falling at the bottom of the drying cylinder 1. The traditional Chinese medicine raw materials pass through the bottom of the inner pipe sleeve 8 and are discharged from its top again, so as to realize the full circulation and stirring of the upper and lower layers of the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials, making the drying effect more uniform. The hot air during the drying process is discharged from the exhaust valve 12. After the drying work is completed, the pipe cover is unscrewed and the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials are discharged from the blanking pipe 13 for collection.

[0031] In summary: By setting the full circulation and stirring of the upper and lower layers of the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials in the drying cylinder 1, it is ensured that the heat and moisture are evenly distributed. The uniform mixing helps to avoid local overheating or overcooling, thus avoiding the problem of uneven drying and improving the quality of the final product; By setting the dispersing mechanism 6, the agglomerated traditional Chinese medicine raw materials are fully dispersed before the drying work. The surface area of the dispersed traditional Chinese medicine raw material particles increases, and the water evaporation speed is accelerated, thereby shortening the overall drying time and improving the production efficiency.
