[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0025] This utility model provides a Chinese medicinal herb slicing machine, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 - Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a storage hopper 100, a conveying mechanism 200, a pressing mechanism 300, and a slicing mechanism 400. The storage hopper 100 has a storage cavity 110 with an open lower surface. A feed inlet 120 communicating with the storage cavity 110 is provided on one side wall of the storage hopper 100. The outlet end of the conveying mechanism 200 communicates with the feed inlet 120 to convey Chinese medicinal materials into the storage cavity 110. The pressing mechanism 300 includes a pressing block 310, which is slidably disposed in the storage cavity 110 and can move up and down. When the lower surface of the pressing block 310 moves below the feed inlet 120, the pressing block 310 blocks the feed inlet 120. The slicing mechanism 400 is disposed below the storage hopper 100 to slice the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage cavity 110.

[0026] In use, the inlet end of the conveying mechanism 200 is connected to the outlet end of the upstream processing step. The processed Chinese medicinal materials enter the conveying mechanism 200 and are conveyed to the storage hopper 100. The medicinal materials enter the storage chamber 110 through the feed inlet 120 and reach the slicing mechanism 400. Then, the pressing block 310 moves downwards and presses the medicinal materials. When the lower surface of the pressing block 310 moves below the feed inlet 120, the pressing block 310 blocks the feed inlet 120. The Chinese medicinal materials on the conveying mechanism 200 no longer enter the storage chamber 110 along the feed inlet 120. After the slicing mechanism 400 finishes slicing the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage chamber 110, the pressing block 310 moves upward until the lower surface of the pressing block 310 moves above the feed inlet 120. The Chinese medicinal materials on the conveying mechanism 200 then continue to enter the storage chamber 110 along the feed inlet 120, realizing the self-feeding of Chinese medicinal materials. It is no longer necessary to manually add Chinese medicinal materials to the storage chamber 110, which reduces the labor intensity of workers when slicing Chinese medicinal materials on a large scale.

The output end of the telescopic drive 320 is connected to the clamping block 310 and is used to drive the clamping block 310 to move up and down. When the telescopic drive 320 is activated, when the telescopic end of the telescopic drive 320 extends, it can drive the clamping block 310 to move downward. When the telescopic end of the telescopic drive 320 retracts, it can drive the clamping block 310 to move upward.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The planing mechanism 400 includes a first support 410, a planing table 420, two planing blades 430, and a first drive assembly 440. The two sides of the planing table 420 are slidably connected to the first support 410. The planing table 420 is also slidably connected to the bottom surface of the storage hopper 100 to seal the opening on the lower surface of the storage cavity 110. The planing table 420 has a strip-shaped discharge port 421 communicating with the storage cavity 110. Both planing blades 430 are strip-shaped and are both disposed within the storage cavity 110. The two planing blades 430 are respectively disposed on both sides of the discharge port 421 along its length and are fixedly connected to the planing table 420. The first drive assembly 440... Component 440 is connected to the planer 420 and is used to drive the planer 420 to reciprocate in the horizontal plane along the width direction of the planer blade 430. When the clamping block 310 clamps the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage cavity 110, the first drive component 440 is activated, which can drive the planer 420 to reciprocate in the horizontal plane along the width direction of the planer blade 430. During the process of the planer 420 reciprocating in the horizontal plane along the width direction of the planer blade 430, the two planer blades 430 can slice the Chinese medicinal materials. As the Chinese medicinal materials are continuously sliced, the clamping block 310 continues to move downward, continuously clamping the Chinese medicinal materials. The sliced ​​Chinese medicinal materials fall along the discharge port 421 on the planer 420 to achieve material discharge.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The first drive assembly 440 is disposed at one end of the planer table 420, and includes a connecting rod 441, a first drive rod 442, and a first rotation drive member 443.

The first drive rod 442 is horizontally disposed, and one end of the first drive rod 442 is hinged to the other end of the connecting rod 441. The output end of the first rotation drive member 443 is hinged to the other end of the first drive rod 442, and is used to drive the first drive rod 442 to rotate in the horizontal plane. When the first rotation drive member 443 is activated, the output end of the first rotation drive member 443 rotates, and drives the first drive rod 442 to rotate in the horizontal plane. Then, through the connecting rod 441, the planer table 420 is driven to reciprocate in the horizontal plane along the width direction of the planer blade 430.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The Chinese herbal medicine slicing machine further includes a feeding hopper 500, which is located directly above the conveying mechanism 200. The feeding hopper 500 has a feeding cavity 510 with openings on both its upper and lower surfaces. The opening on the lower surface of the feeding cavity 510 is connected to the inlet end of the conveying mechanism 200. The feeding cavity 510 is used to hold Chinese herbal medicines. The opening on the upper surface of the feeding cavity 510 is connected to the outlet end of the upstream processing step. The feeding cavity 510 can buffer the Chinese herbal medicines to avoid the situation where slicing is not timely and the Chinese herbal medicines accumulate at the feed inlet 120.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The herbal slicing machine further includes a screening mechanism 600, which is located below the slicing mechanism 400. The screening mechanism 600 receives the sliced ​​herbal materials and performs screening on them. Since the sliced ​​herbal materials contain a lot of fragments, manual separation of the sliced ​​and fragmented materials is required, which is cumbersome. The screening mechanism 600 can screen the sliced ​​herbal materials, separating out the fragmented materials and avoiding manual screening.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The screening mechanism 600 includes a screening trough 610, a screening mesh 620, and a second drive assembly 630. A material discharge port 611 is opened on the bottom surface of the screening trough 610. One side wall of the screening trough 610 is open. The screening mesh 620 is laid at the material discharge port 611 and fixed to the screening trough 610. The second drive assembly 630 is connected to the screening trough 610 and is used to drive the screening trough 610 to move up and down horizontally. When the second drive assembly 630 is activated, it drives the screening trough 610 to move up and down horizontally. Powdered Chinese medicinal materials pass through the mesh of the screening mesh 620, while flaky Chinese medicinal materials remain in the screening trough 610 and are discharged through the opening on one side of the screening trough 610.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The screening trough 610 is inclined and the opening side of the screening trough 610 is located at the lower end, which can improve the discharge effect.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2The second drive assembly 630 includes a second bracket 631, four ear seats 632, four second drive rods 633, and a second rotation drive member 634.

The upper ends of both first ear seats 632 are fixedly connected to the screening trough 610. The other two second ear seats 632 are located at the low end of the screening trough 610 and are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the screening trough 610. The upper ends of both second ear seats 632 are fixedly connected to the screening trough 610. The four second drive rods 633 are connected to the four ear seats 632. In a one-to-one correspondence, one end of each of the four second drive rods 633 is hinged to the lower end of the corresponding four ear seats 632, and the other end of each of the four second drive rods 633 is rotatably connected to the second bracket 631. The output end of the second rotation drive member 634 is fixedly connected to the rotation shaft of the other end of one of the second drive rods 633, and is used to drive the second drive rod 633 to rotate in the vertical plane. When the second rotation drive member 634 is activated, the output end of the second rotation drive member 634 rotates, and drives the corresponding second drive rod 633 to rotate, and then drives the screening tank 610 to move up and down horizontally via the corresponding ear seat 632.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The screening mechanism 600 also includes a receiving trough 640, which is located directly below the screening trough 610 to receive the sieved Chinese medicinal materials and collect the powdered Chinese medicinal materials.

[0037] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figure 1 - Figure 3 The working principle of the technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below:

[0038] In use, the opening on the upper surface of the feeding chamber 510 is connected to the outlet end of the upstream processing step. The processed Chinese medicinal materials enter the feeding chamber 510 and then fall down through the opening on the lower surface of the feeding chamber 510 onto the conveying mechanism 200, where they are conveyed to the storage hopper 100. The Chinese medicinal materials then enter the storage chamber 110 through the inlet 120 and reach the planer table 420. The telescopic drive 320 is activated, and its telescopic end extends, driving the pressing block 310 to move downward and press the contents of the storage chamber 110. When the lower surface of the clamping block 310 moves below the feed inlet 120, the clamping block 310 blocks the feed inlet 120. At this time, the first rotating drive component 443 is activated, and its output end rotates, driving the first drive rod 442 to rotate in the horizontal plane. This, in turn, drives the planer table 420 to reciprocate in the horizontal plane along the width direction of the planer blade 430 via the connecting rod 441. During the reciprocating movement of the planer table 420 along the width direction of the planer blade 430 in the horizontal plane, the two planer blades 430 can slice the Chinese medicinal materials. As the Chinese medicinal herbs are continuously sliced, the pressing block 310 moves downwards, continuously pressing the herbs. The sliced ​​herbs fall along the feed inlet 421 on the planer 420 and enter the sieve trough 610. At this time, the second rotation drive 634 is activated, its output end rotates, and drives the corresponding second drive rod 633 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the sieve trough 610 to move up and down horizontally via the corresponding ear seat 632. During this up-and-down horizontal movement, the fragmented Chinese medicinal herbs fall through the mesh of the sieve screen 620 and enter the receiving section. Inside the trough 640, the flaky Chinese medicinal materials remain in the sieving trough 610 and are discharged through an opening on one side of the sieving trough 610. After the planer 430 finishes planing the Chinese medicinal materials in the storage chamber 110, the pressing block 310 moves upward until the lower surface of the pressing block 310 moves above the feed inlet 120. The Chinese medicinal materials on the conveying mechanism 200 continue to enter the storage chamber 110 through the feed inlet 120, realizing the self-feeding of Chinese medicinal materials. It is no longer necessary to manually add Chinese medicinal materials to the storage chamber 110, which reduces the labor intensity of workers when planing Chinese medicinal materials on a large scale.

[0039] The medicinal herb slicing machine provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0040] (1) When the lower surface of the pressing block 310 moves to below the feed inlet 120, the pressing block 310 blocks the feed inlet 120. When the lower surface of the pressing block 310 moves to above the feed inlet 120, the Chinese medicinal materials on the conveying mechanism 200 enter the storage chamber 110 along the feed inlet 120.

[0041] (2) Since the sliced ​​Chinese medicinal materials will be mixed with a lot of Chinese medicinal material fragments, it is necessary to manually separate the sliced ​​Chinese medicinal materials from the fragmented Chinese medicinal materials, which is quite troublesome. The sieving mechanism 600 can sieve the sliced ​​Chinese medicinal materials to separate the fragmented Chinese medicinal materials, thus avoiding manual screening.

[0042] (3) It can realize the self-feeding of Chinese medicinal materials, and no longer requires manual feeding of Chinese medicinal materials into the storage chamber 110. When Chinese medicinal materials are sliced ​​on a large scale, the labor intensity of workers is reduced.

[0043] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model.
