Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing, and particularly relates to a multi-purpose boiler for traditional Chinese medicine processing. Background Art

[0002] In the process of traditional Chinese medicine processing, the boiler plays an important role. Steaming traditional Chinese medicine with steam is a common treatment method. This steaming process can change the properties of traditional Chinese medicine, remove impurities, improve the medicinal effect, and help traditional Chinese medicine better play its therapeutic role. For example, for some herbs with hard texture, steaming can make them softer, facilitating subsequent slicing and processing; for some poisonous herbs, steaming can reduce their toxicity and ensure the safety of medication. However, currently in traditional Chinese medicine processing, after using the boiler to generate steam to steam traditional Chinese medicine, the generated steam is usually directly discharged, which causes a great waste of energy. The practice of directly discharging steam greatly reduces the energy utilization rate of the entire processing process. Originally, through reasonable recovery and reuse means, the heat energy in this part of the steam could be used for other processing processes. But due to direct discharge, not only are these potential utilization opportunities lost, but also more energy needs to be consumed additionally to meet the same other requirements. To solve this problem, it is urgent to develop a multi-purpose boiler for traditional Chinese medicine processing. Content of the Utility Model

When the decocting pot 5 reaches between them, under the coordinated action of the blowing fan 9 and the exhaust fan 8, it can promote the rapid flow of air around the decocting pot 5, and then can quickly cool the surface of the decocting pot 5, effectively preventing the situation of scalding on its surface. After cooling, the decocting pot 5 can be picked up, the liquid medicine inside it can be poured out and cleaned, and then it can be placed on the bottom ring 4 again. The bottom ring 4 is driven to return by the reverse rotation of the servo motor 17, and the decocting process continues. And the rapid cooling can shorten the waiting time and improve the efficiency of decocting. Especially in the case of continuously decocting multiple doses of medicine, the decocting pot 5 can be processed faster for the next round of operation. When the rotating rod 12 rotates, it can drive the linkage strut 13 to rotate along the path of the annular groove 11. The linkage strut 13 can support the rotating rod 12 to improve the stability of the rotating rod 12. The rotating rod 12 can drive the universal ball 18 to slide along the path of the annular groove 11, so that the rotating rod 12 can rotate more smoothly.
