Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing technology, specifically to an adjustable traditional Chinese medicine slicing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing of Chinese medicinal herbs, in order to facilitate the extraction and administration of medicinal components and improve the solubility and absorption rate of the medicine, the herbs are usually washed, dried, and then sliced ​​into thin slices using knives or slicers. Currently, in order to improve slicing efficiency, the herbs are usually transported by a conveyor belt, and then driven by a cylinder to drive the slicing blades to slice the herbs evenly during the transport process. However, the conveyor belt used to transport the herbs and the slicing blades used to slice the herbs are currently driven and controlled separately. Therefore, when it is necessary to adjust the slicing speed, it is necessary to adjust both the conveyor belt speed and the slicing blade speed at the same time, which is relatively inconvenient. Moreover, if the two speeds are not well coordinated and controlled, the sliced ​​herbs may be too thick or too thin, affecting the efficacy of the medicine in the later use.

[0003] In view of this, we propose an adjustable slicing device for Chinese medicinal materials. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides an adjustable Chinese herbal medicine slicing device, which can effectively solve the problems of the existing technology requiring simultaneous adjustment of the conveyor belt and slicing blade speeds when adjusting the slicing speed, which is inconvenient to operate and may result in sliced ​​herbs that are too thin or too thick, affecting the efficacy of the medicine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model provides an adjustable Chinese herbal medicine slicing device, including a support and a conveyor roller rotatably installed on the inner wall of the support cavity, with a conveyor belt meshing with the surface of the conveyor roller;

[0007] One end of the conveyor belt is equipped with a guide hopper, one side of which is fixedly installed on one side of the support, and the inside of the guide hopper is equipped with multiple sets of brush strips.

[0008] A cylinder is installed at the top of the support, and the bottom of the cylinder moves through the support and extends into the interior of the support. A fixing frame is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cylinder, and a slicing blade is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing frame.

[0009] The fixed frame has a driving component on one side, and the driving component is also located at both ends of the conveying roller.

[0010] Furthermore, the driving component includes two sets of support rods fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame, and a connecting rod is rotatably installed on the end of each set of support rods away from the fixed frame.

[0011] Furthermore, cranks are rotatably mounted on the ends of both sets of connecting rods away from the support rods, and first gears are fixedly mounted on the ends of both sets of cranks away from the connecting rods.

[0012] Furthermore, the surfaces of both sets of first gears are meshed with second gears;

[0013] Both ends of the conveyor roller rotate through the bracket, and the two sets of second gears are fixedly installed on the sides of the conveyor roller respectively.

[0014] Furthermore, a fixing rod is fixedly installed on one side of the two sets of first gears that are close to each other. The fixing rod rotates through the guide hopper, and the surface of the fixing rod is fixedly installed on one end of the multiple sets of brush strips.

[0015] Furthermore, two sets of guide rods are slidably mounted on the surface of the fixed frame, and both ends of the two sets of guide rods are fixedly mounted on the inner cavity sidewall of the bracket.

[0016] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the known public technology:

[0017] This invention utilizes a driving component mounted on a fixed frame and conveyor rollers. When the slicing blade moves up and down to slice the medicinal materials on the conveyor belt, the drive component simultaneously moves the conveyor belt to transport the materials. Therefore, when the slicing speed needs adjustment, both the conveyor belt speed and the slicing blade speed can be adjusted simultaneously by adjusting the cylinder, making operation simpler. This also avoids situations where the slices are too thin or too thick, affecting the efficacy of the medicinal materials later. Furthermore, during the slicing process, multiple sets of brushes inside the guide hopper can be rotated simultaneously to assist in unloading the sliced ​​medicinal materials from the guide hopper, preventing excessive accumulation of medicinal materials within the hopper.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0025] An adjustable Chinese herbal medicine slicing device includes a support 1 and a conveying roller 14 rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the support 1. A conveyor belt 13 is meshed with the surface of the conveying roller 14. A guide hopper 10 is provided at one end of the conveyor belt 13. One side of the guide hopper 10 is fixedly mounted on one side of the support 1. Multiple brush strips 11 are provided inside the guide hopper 10. A cylinder 2 is provided at the top of the support 1. The bottom of the cylinder 2 moves through the support 1 and extends into the interior of the support 1. A fixing frame 15 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the cylinder 2. A slicing blade 3 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the fixing frame 15. A driving component is provided on one side of the fixing frame 15, and the driving component is also provided at both ends of the conveying roller 14.

[0026] Specifically, the cylinder 2 fixedly installed on the top of the bracket 1 can drive the fixed frame 15 to move, and the fixed frame 15 can drive the slicing blade 3 to move up and down reciprocally to slice the medicinal material. The driving component set on one side of the fixed frame 15 can synchronously drive the conveyor roller 14 to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt 13 to move and transport the medicinal material. After the medicinal material is sliced, it can be transported to the guide hopper 10 for unloading through the conveyor belt 13. During the slicing process, multiple sets of brush strips 11 inside the guide hopper 10 can be rotated to sweep the medicinal material in the guide hopper 10 downwards, assisting in unloading and preventing the sliced ​​medicinal material from accumulating too much in the guide hopper 10, which would affect the normal unloading efficiency.

[0027] Specifically, the driving component includes two sets of support rods 5 fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame 15. A connecting rod 6 is rotatably installed at the end of each set of support rods 5 away from the fixed frame 15. A crank 7 is rotatably installed at the end of each set of connecting rods 6 away from the support rods 5. A first gear 8 is fixedly installed at the end of each set of cranks 7 away from the connecting rod 6. A second gear 9 is meshed with the surfaces of the two sets of first gears 8. Both ends of the conveying roller 14 rotate through the bracket 1, and the sides of the two sets of second gears 9 that are close to each other are fixedly installed at the two ends of the conveying roller 14. A fixed rod 12 is fixedly installed on the sides of the two sets of first gears 8 that are close to each other. The fixed rod 12 rotates through the guide hopper 10, and the surface of the fixed rod 12 is fixedly installed at one end of multiple sets of brush strips 11. Two sets of guide rods 4 are slidably installed on the surface of the fixed frame 15, and both ends of the two sets of guide rods 4 are fixedly installed on the inner cavity sidewall of the bracket 1.

[0028] Specifically, when the cylinder 2 drives the fixed frame 15 to move up and down, the two sets of support rods 5 fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame 15 can drive one end of the connecting rod 6 to move downward, thereby causing the two sets of connecting rods 6 to tilt, causing the crank 7 fixedly installed on one end of the connecting rod 6 to rotate. At this time, the first gear 8 fixedly installed on the crank 7 can drive the second gear 9 to rotate, and the two sets of second gears 9 can drive the conveyor roller 14 to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt 13 to move and convey the medicinal materials. When the two sets of first gears 8 rotate, they can drive the fixed rod 12 to rotate, thereby driving the multiple sets of brush strips 11 on the surface of the fixed rod 12 to rotate.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: A cylinder 2 fixedly mounted on the top of the bracket 1 drives the fixed frame 15 to move. The fixed frame 15 then drives the slicing blade 3 to move up and down reciprocally, thus slicing the medicinal material. When the cylinder 2 drives the fixed frame 15 to move up and down, two sets of support rods 5 fixedly mounted on one side of the fixed frame 15 drive one end of the connecting rod 6 to move downwards. This causes the two sets of connecting rods 6 to tilt, causing the crank 7, which is rotatably mounted on one end of the connecting rod 6, to rotate. At this time, the first gear 8 fixedly mounted on the crank 7 drives the second gear 9 to rotate. The two sets of second gears 9 drive the conveyor roller 14 to rotate, thereby... The moving conveyor belt 13 transports the medicinal materials. Therefore, when it is necessary to adjust the slicing speed, the conveying speed of the conveyor belt 13 and the slicing speed of the slicing blade 3 can be adjusted simultaneously by adjusting the cylinder 2. The operation is simpler and can avoid the situation where the slices of medicinal materials are too thin or too thick, which would affect the efficacy of the medicinal materials in the later use. When the two sets of first gears 8 rotate, they can drive the fixed rod 12 to rotate, which in turn drives the multiple sets of brush strips 11 on the surface of the fixed rod 12 to rotate. This can sweep the medicinal materials in the guide hopper 10 downwards, assisting in the feeding and preventing the sliced ​​medicinal materials from accumulating too much in the guide hopper 10, which would affect the normal feeding efficiency.

[0030] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
