[0035] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , this embodiment provides a Chinese herbal medicine cutting mechanism 100, and the Chinese herbal medicine cutting mechanism 100 includes a cutting frame 110, a movable seat 120, a rotating rod 130, and a cutter unit 140;

[0036] The cutting frame 110 is configured with a cutting channel 111; the movable seat 120 is movably connected to the cutting frame 110 along the extension direction of the cutting channel 111; the rotating rod 130 is rotatably connected to the movable seat 120;

[0037] The cutting blade unit 140 includes a tool holder 141 and a movable blade 142. The tool holder 141 is movably connected within the material cutting channel 111 along the extending direction of the material cutting channel 111, and the movable blade 142 is movably connected to the tool holder 141.

[0038] Wherein, the rotating rod 130 is used to rotate relative to the material cutting frame 110 under the action of an external force to press the movable blade 142 for cutting the Chinese medicinal materials within the material cutting channel 111.

[0039] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the working principle of the Chinese medicinal material cutting mechanism 100 is as follows:

[0040] The Chinese medicinal material cutting mechanism 100 includes a material cutting frame 110, a movable seat 120, a rotating rod 130, and a cutting blade unit 140. Among them, the material cutting frame 110 is configured with a material cutting channel 111 for accommodating the Chinese medicinal materials to be cut. And for facilitating the support of the Chinese medicinal materials within the material cutting channel 111, a plurality of movable bottom plates are arranged at the bottom of the material cutting channel 111, the purpose of which is to support the Chinese medicinal materials and avoid interference with the movable cutting blade in the active state.

[0041] The movable seat 120 is movably connected to the material cutting frame 110 along the extending direction of the material cutting channel 111; the rotating rod 130 is rotatably connected to the movable seat 120; the cutting blade unit 140 includes a tool holder 141 and a movable blade 142. The tool holder 141 is movably connected within the material cutting channel 111 along the extending direction of the material cutting channel 111, and the movable blade 142 is movably connected to the tool holder 141.

[0042] Thus, when cutting the Chinese medicinal materials, the position of the rotating rod 130 can be adjusted through the movement of the movable seat 120, and the cutting position of the movable blade 142 can be adjusted through the movement of the tool holder 141. Thus, during the cutting process, the cutting position can be conveniently adjusted through the aforementioned movements, so as to improve the cutting efficiency and operation safety during the cutting process. At the same time, for facilitating the measurement of the movement and cutting size, a scale can be set on the material cutting frame 110 to determine the position adjustment of the movable seat 120 and the position adjustment of the movable blade 142.

[0043] When rotating, the rotating rod 130 rotates relative to the material cutting frame 110 under the action of an external force to press the movable blade 142 for cutting the Chinese medicinal materials within the material cutting channel 111.

[0044] It should be noted that during the use process, the cutting position can also be adjusted by adjusting the position of the Chinese medicinal materials; when performing the cutting into sections operation, the length of the cut sections can be conveniently controlled through the position adjustment of the movable seat 120 and the position adjustment of the movable blade 142.

[0045] In summary, the structure of the Chinese medicinal material cutting mechanism 100 is simple and easy to use. It can conveniently adjust the position of the blade for cutting Chinese medicinal materials, thereby improving the cutting efficiency and safety.

[0046] Furthermore, please refer to Figures 1-4 , to improve the operation flexibility and convenience during the cutting process. Therefore, a plurality of cutter units 140 are spaced along the extending direction of the cutting channel 111. The rotating rod 130 is used to rotate relative to the cutting frame 110 under the action of an external force to press one or more movable blades 142 to cut the Chinese medicinal materials in the cutting channel 111. That is, by adjusting the positions of the plurality of cutter units 140 and enabling the rotating rod 130 to press the movable blades 142 of all the cutter units 140, the Chinese medicinal materials can be cut with the distance between adjacent cutter units 140 as the cutting length.

[0047] When operating the rotating rod 130, in order to enable the rotating rod 130 during rotation to press the movable blade 142 for cutting movement, therefore, the Chinese medicinal material cutting mechanism 100 includes a movable member 151 and a pressing rod 152 connected to the rotating rod 130;

[0048] The extending direction of the rotating rod 130 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the cutting channel 111. The movable member 151 is slidably connected to the rotating rod 130 along the extending direction of the rotating rod 130; the pressing rod 152 is connected to the movable member 151 and extends along the extending direction of the cutting channel 111 and is used to press the movable blade 142. It should be noted that during the rotation, in order to enable the rotating rod 130 to press the movable blade 142 for cutting action as the rotating rod 130 rotates, therefore, the movable member 151 is slidably connected to the rotating rod 130. The purpose is that as the rotating rod 130 rotates, the movable member 151 can slide relative to the rotating rod 130, so as to maintain the state of pressing the movable blade 142 when the rotating rod 130 rotates.

[0049] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , and there are two cutter units 140 disposed in the cutting channel 111 and distributed on both sides of the rotating rod 130; one pressing rod 152 is connected to each side of the rotating rod 130, and the pressing rod 152 is used to press the movable blade 142 on the same side. Correspondingly, the movable blade 142 is provided with a groove 143 for cooperating with the pressing rod 152.

[0050] During the movement of the movable blade 142, in order to improve the accuracy of its movement, the movable tool holder 141 is provided with a chute 144 that cooperates with the movable blade 142. An elastic member 145 is disposed in the chute 144, and the elastic member 145 is used to cause the movable blade 142 to tend to move in the direction towards the rotating rod 130. Moreover, guiding platforms 146 that cooperate with the cutting material passage 111 are disposed on both sides of the movable tool holder 141 to guide the movable tool holder 141 to move along the extending direction thereof when sliding relative to the cutting material passage 111. In addition, two guiding plates 147 are connected to the movable tool holder 141, and the two guiding plates 147 are spaced apart and form a passage for the movable blade 142 to move.

[0051] In addition, in order to facilitate the collection of the cut medicinal materials, the traditional Chinese medicine cutting mechanism 100 is provided with a collection box 160. The collection box 160 is connected to the cutting material frame 110 and is located below the cutting material passage 111. The cutting material frame 110 is provided with an abutting platform 112 for mounting the collection box 160.

[0052] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
