Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medicine forging furnaces, and particularly relates to a medicine forging furnace with a stirring device. Background Art

[0002] In traditional Chinese medicine, calcining is a crucial processing technique, crucial for modifying the medicinal properties of Chinese medicines, enhancing their efficacy, and reducing their toxicity. However, existing calcining techniques suffer from numerous deficiencies in the performance and structure of calcining furnaces, creating a series of challenges for the calcination of Chinese medicines.

[0003] In the past, many calcining furnaces had simple designs and lacked optimized internal structures. For example, the internal space layout of the calcining pot in some furnaces was poor, resulting in accumulation and uneven distribution of Chinese medicinal pieces during placement and calcination. Furthermore, the stirring mechanisms in traditional calcining furnaces were often inadequate, making it impossible to effectively and evenly heat the Chinese medicinal pieces during calcination.

[0004] One common problem is a single, incomplete stirring method. Some calcining furnaces are equipped with only a simple rotating stirring element, which can only stir the material within a limited range and cannot reach every corner of the pot. As a result, the Chinese herbal medicine pieces near the edges and bottom of the pot are not fully stirred, resulting in uneven heating. This not only affects the calcination effect, but can also lead to significant differences in the quality and medicinal properties of Chinese herbal medicine pieces within the same batch.

[0005] Furthermore, due to the diverse shapes, sizes, and densities of Chinese herbal medicines, traditional stirring devices struggle to adapt to this diversity. Thin pieces can be over-stirred during stirring, while thicker pieces may not be properly stirred. This results in inconsistent calcination levels for different pieces during the calcination process. Some pieces may be over-calcined, resulting in loss of active ingredients, while others may be under-calcined, failing to achieve the desired medicinal property changes.

[0006] To this end, we proposed a forging furnace with a stirring device. The device uses a combination design of a stirring plate and an arc-shaped flap to ensure that the material can be fully stirred and turned during the forging process, thereby improving the forging effect. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a forging furnace with a stirring device. The device is designed with a combination of a stirring plate and an arc-shaped flap, so that the material can be fully stirred and turned during the forging process, thereby improving the forging effect.

[0008] The technical solutions adopted in this application are as follows:

[0009] A medicine forging furnace with a stirring device comprises a medicine calcining pot body, a fixing ring is provided on the inner wall of the medicine calcining pot body, the fixing ring is provided with meshing teeth, a rotating assembly is provided at the bottom of the medicine calcining pot body, an output end of the rotating assembly is provided with a rotating shaft located inside the medicine calcining pot body, and a stirring assembly is provided on the rotating shaft;
