[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the present utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0028] A sterilizer for processing traditional Chinese medicinal materials, including a sterilizer structure 1, a cover body 4 is arranged on the left side of the sterilizer structure 1, an air box 5 is arranged on the inner wall of the cover body 4, a mixing mechanism 2 is arranged on the inner wall of the air box 5, a steam pipe 6 is arranged on the right side of the sterilizer structure 1, a steam drying box 7 is fixedly communicated with the top of the steam pipe 6, a movable frame 8 is arranged on the inner wall of the steam drying box 7, and a drying component 3 is clamped on the inner wall of the movable frame 8;

[0029] The mixing mechanism 2 includes a fan component 201, a rotating shaft 202 and a high-temperature resistant output component 203. The output end of the high-temperature resistant output component 203 is bolted to the left side of the rotating shaft 202, and the right side of the rotating shaft 202 is bolted to the left side of the fan component 201.

[0030] In this embodiment: By setting the mixing mechanism 2, during use, the positions of the high-temperature resistant output component 203 and the rotating shaft 202 are fixed, and the positions of the rotating shaft 202 and the fan component 201 are fixed, which is convenient for subsequent output through the high-temperature resistant output component 203, enabling the high-temperature resistant output component 203 to drive the rotating shaft 202 and the fan component 201 to rotate, facilitating the uniform distribution of hot air, and avoiding the situation that the sterilization effect of the part far from the heat source in the sterilizer structure 1 is poor during use. By setting the drying component 3, during use, the steam pipe 6 is communicated with the steam drying box 7, which is convenient for the subsequent auxiliary drying work of the steam drying box 7. After the steam enters the steam drying box 7 and comes into full contact with the drying component 3, the moisture-absorbing material will quickly adsorb the moisture in the steam, reducing the humidity of the steam, thereby achieving the drying effect. After the steam is dried, its water content is significantly reduced and its quality is improved.

[0031] Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, a baffle 9 is bolted to the front side of the movable frame 8. The surface of the baffle 9 is clamped to the inner wall of the steam drying box 7, and a sealing ring 10 is bonded to the rear side of the baffle 9. The surface of the sealing ring 10 is clamped to the inner wall of the steam drying box 7.

[0032] Specifically, as Figure 5 shown, the drying component 3 includes a mounting frame 301 and a molecular sieve component 302. The surface of the molecular sieve component 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 301, and the surface of the mounting frame 301 is clamped to the inner wall of the movable frame 8.

[0033] Specifically, as Figure 5 shown, a circulation hole 11 is opened on the inner wall of the movable frame 8, and a mounting groove 12 for cooperating with the mounting frame 301 is opened on the inner wall of the movable frame 8.

[0034] In this embodiment: By bolting the baffle 9 to the movable frame 8, the stability of the overall structure is enhanced. The setting of the baffle 9 can prevent steam from directly escaping from the steam drying box 7 before being processed by the drying component 3, ensuring that all steam can come into full contact with the drying component 3 for drying treatment. The sealing ring 10 adhered to the rear side of the baffle 9 can further improve the sealing performance, effectively preventing steam leakage, ensuring the efficient progress of the steam drying process, avoiding energy waste and potential safety hazards caused by steam leakage. The mounting frame 301 provides a stable support and mounting position for the molecular sieve component 302. Through the fixed connection with the mounting frame 301, the molecular sieve component 302 can remain stable in the steam drying box 7 and is not prone to displacement or loosening. The clamping connection mode between the mounting frame 301 and the movable frame 8 not only facilitates the installation and disassembly of the drying component 3, making it convenient to regularly replace or maintain the molecular sieve component 302 to ensure its good moisture absorption performance all the time, but also ensures that the drying component 3 will not fall off during the working process, thereby continuously and effectively drying the steam. The opening of the through hole 11 enables the steam to smoothly pass through the movable frame 8 and come into full contact with the drying component 3, improving the drying efficiency of the steam. The cooperation between the mounting groove 12 and the mounting frame 301 not only provides an accurate mounting position for the mounting frame 301, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the installation, but also can play a role in positioning and fixing the mounting frame 301, preventing it from shaking or shifting during the working process, thereby ensuring that the drying component 3 can stably play its role and further optimizing the effect and stability of steam drying.

[0035] Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, a rotating rod 13 is bolted to the inner wall of the steam drying box 7, and a limiting frame 14 is rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating rod 13.

[0036] Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, a limiting block 15 is bolted to the front side of the baffle 9, and the surface of the limiting frame 14 is clamped with the inner wall of the limiting block 15.

[0037] In this embodiment: The rotating rod 13 provides a reliable support and a rotating shaft 202 for the limiting frame 14. The limiting frame 14 can rotate flexibly around the rotating rod 13. When it is necessary to fix or disassemble the baffle 9 and the movable frame 8, the quick locking and unlocking operations can be achieved by rotating the limiting frame 14. This design makes the installation and disassembly of the baffle 9 and the movable frame 8 more convenient, improves the efficiency of maintaining and replacing the drying component 3. At the same time, in the working state, it can effectively limit the positions of the baffle 9 and the movable frame 8 to ensure that they will not move accidentally, guaranteeing the stability and reliability of the steam drying process. The limiting block 15 is bolted to the baffle 9, increasing the integrity and strength of the structure. The snap-fit connection between the limiting frame 14 and the limiting block 15 further enhances the fixing effect on the baffle 9, and can effectively prevent the baffle 9 from displacing under the action of steam pressure or other external forces, so as to ensure that the sealing ring 10 always fits tightly with the inner wall of the steam drying chamber 7, maintaining good sealing performance, and ensuring the safe, stable and efficient progress of the steam drying work.

[0038] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, a mounting plate 16 is bolted to the surface of the high-temperature resistant output component 203, and one side of the mounting plate 16 close to the inner wall of the air box 5 is bolted to the air box 5.

[0039] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, a support frame 17 is bolted to the bottom of the autoclave structure 1, and a controller structure 18 is bolted to the front side of the autoclave structure 1.

[0040] In this embodiment: The mounting plate 16 provides a stable mounting basis for the high-temperature resistant output component 203. By bolting the mounting plate 16 to the air box 5, it can be ensured that the high-temperature resistant output component 203 will not loosen or displace during operation, so as to stably drive the rotating shaft 202 and the fan assembly 201 to rotate. This firm connection method effectively transmits power, ensuring the normal operation of the mixing mechanism 2, improving the uniformity of hot air distribution and the sterilization effect. The support frame 17 provides stable support for the autoclave structure 1, enabling it to be placed stably on the working site. The bolted connection method of the support frame 17 ensures that it can bear the weight of the autoclave structure 1 and the vibration generated during operation, guaranteeing the stability and safety of the equipment. The controller structure 18 is bolted to the front side of the autoclave structure 1, which is convenient for operators to operate and monitor, and can accurately control various parameters during the sterilization process, such as temperature, pressure, time, etc., so as to achieve an optimized sterilization effect, improve work efficiency and product quality.

[0041] Working principle: During the use of the autoclave structure 1, by setting the mixing mechanism 2, the position of the high-temperature resistant output component 203 and the rotating shaft 202 is fixed during use, and the position of the rotating shaft 202 and the fan component 201 is fixed, which is convenient for subsequent output through the high-temperature resistant output component 203, so that the high-temperature resistant output component 203 drives the rotating shaft 202 and the fan component 201 to rotate, facilitating the uniform distribution of hot air and avoiding the situation that the sterilization effect of the part far from the heat source is poor during the use of the autoclave structure 1. By setting the drying component 3, during use, the steam pipe 6 is connected to the steam drying box 7, which is convenient for the subsequent auxiliary drying work of the steam drying box 7. After the steam enters the steam drying box 7 and fully contacts the drying component 3, the moisture-absorbing material will quickly adsorb the moisture in the steam, reducing the humidity of the steam, thus achieving the drying effect. After the steam is dried, its water content is significantly reduced and its quality is improved.

[0042] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
