Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of glycyrrhetinic acid production equipment, and more specifically to a cutting device for glycyrrhetinic acid raw materials. Background Art
[0002] Glycyrrhizic acid is an important compound extracted from licorice. It is mainly obtained by extracting glycyrrhizic acid from the roots and rhizomes of licorice and then undergoing a series of chemical reactions (such as hydrolysis, refining, etc.). It has multiple pharmacological effects such as anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, and inhibition of bacterial reproduction. It can be used to treat a variety of diseases, such as adrenal cortex insufficiency, gastric and duodenal ulcers, etc.
[0003] Before licorice is cut, it needs to be transported to the vicinity of the cutting equipment. The length and thickness of the licorice roots and rhizomes are uneven. Some of the thicker licorice branches are still large in size after being cut. During extraction, the effective ingredients inside them may be difficult to be fully penetrated and dissolved by the solvent, resulting in incomplete extraction and affecting the quality and efficacy of the final product.

[0008] Furthermore, the base assembly includes a bottom plate, a first movable groove is opened on the top of the bottom plate, a bracket is fixedly connected to the front and back sides of the top of the bottom plate, a rack is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket, a limiting block is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom plate, and the collecting assembly includes a collecting box, a second movable groove is opened on the top of the collecting box.
[0009] Furthermore, the front and back sides of the conveying track are both movably connected to the limiting chute, the top of the limiting chute is fixedly connected to the supporting structure, and the bottom of the supporting structure is fixedly connected to the limiting belt.
[0010] Furthermore, an inclined groove is provided on one side of the limiting slide close to the conveying track, and the width of the conveying track, the width of the discharge slope, the inner width of the enclosure side plate and the inner width of the collection box are all the same.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. The utility model is provided with a screening component. When the licorice is cut by the cutter and falls through the discharge slope under the transportation of the conveyor track, the weight of the cut licorice will press the top cover component to turn inward. The cut licorice will be screened by the screening plate. The licorice fragments that meet the standards will fall into the collection box, and the licorice that does not meet the standards will be blocked by the screening plate on the top, avoiding the direct extraction of large-sized licorice fragments and improving the quality of the finished product.

After a single batch of licorice is cut, the operator pulls the handle to drive the enclosure side panel to move along the second moving groove and the first moving groove toward the bracket. When the special-shaped gear contacts the rack, it drives the entire enclosure side panel to flip. During the flipping process, the top cover assembly closes the inside of the enclosure side panel. If the licorice contacts the shielding plate, the top cover assembly is pushed outward. At this time, the shielding plate can guide the direction of the licorice to ensure that it falls to the top of the conveying track for secondary cutting, so that large-sized licorice fragments are reduced in size after secondary cutting, thereby improving the utilization rate of raw materials.

[0034] Specifically, the operator pulls the handle 408 to drive the enclosure side panel 401 to move as a whole along the second moving groove 502 and the first moving groove 102 toward the direction close to the bracket 103. During this process, the circular shaft 407 is limited by the limiting belt 205. By providing the limiting belt 205, the second moving groove 502 and the first moving groove 102, the movement of the screening component 4 is ensured to be more stable. When the special-shaped gear 406 contacts the rack 104, it drives the entire enclosure side panel 401 to flip to one side.
[0035] The working principle of this utility model:
[0036] First, the licorice to be cut is placed on the top of the conveyor track 201. Under the conveyor track 201, the licorice moves to the bottom of the cutter 203 and is cut by the cutter 203. Then, it falls through the discharge slope 206. The weight of the cut licorice presses the shielding plate 4021 to rotate inward along the rotating shaft 4022. The cut licorice falls to the top of the screening plate 403 and is screened by the screening plate 403. The licorice fragments that meet the standards will fall into the collection box 501, and the licorice that does not meet the standards will be blocked at the top of the screening plate 403.
[0037] After a single batch of licorice is cut, the operator pulls the handle 408 to drive the enclosure side plate 401 to move as a whole along the second moving groove 502 and the first moving groove 102 toward the direction close to the bracket 103. When the special-shaped gear 406 contacts the rack 104, it drives the entire enclosure side plate 401 to flip to one side. During the flipping process, the shielding plates 4021 on both sides close the inside of the enclosure side plate 401. If the licorice contacts the shielding plate 4021 and pressure is applied to the shielding plate 4021 to cause the shielding plate 4021 to flip outward, at this time, if the flipping angle of the shielding plate 4021 is small, it can still prevent the licorice from falling. When the licorice continues to put pressure on it and cannot prevent the licorice from falling, the shielding plate 4021 at the bottom can guide the direction of the licorice to ensure that it falls to the top of the conveying track 201 for secondary cutting, so that the large-sized licorice fragments are reduced in size after secondary cutting.
