Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of artemisia processing technology, and more specifically, to a cutting device for processing moxa sticks. Background Technology

[0002] Moxa sticks are one of the commonly used tools in traditional Chinese medicine moxibustion therapy. They are usually made of moxa wool (the fine and soft fibers obtained after processing mugwort leaves) rolled into a cylindrical or other shape. Sometimes other herbs are added to enhance the therapeutic effect. Moxa sticks are a commonly used tool in Chinese medicine moxibustion therapy. By burning moxa wool, the heat is used to stimulate acupoints on the human body to achieve the purpose of treatment and health care. The quality of moxa sticks directly affects the effect of moxibustion. Therefore, every step in the production process is crucial. High-quality moxa sticks should have uniform length, diameter and density to ensure stability and effectiveness during combustion.

[0003] Traditional manual or simple mechanical cutting methods have many problems in the production of moxa sticks. First, manual cutting makes it difficult to ensure that each moxa stick is of consistent length, which leads to unstable product quality. Moxa sticks of inconsistent length will have different heating effects and durations when burning, thus affecting the therapeutic effect. In addition, manual operation is very slow and has low production efficiency, which cannot meet the needs of large-scale production and fast delivery. Therefore, it is necessary to design a cutting device for moxa stick processing to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a cutting device for processing moxa sticks.

[0005] Technical Solution: A cutting device for processing moxa sticks includes a base, a placement platform, and guide plates. The base serves as the load-bearing carrier of the device. The placement platform is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base and acts as a cutting platform for moxa sticks. Two guide plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the placement platform, guiding and limiting the moxa sticks. The device also includes: an electric push rod mounted on the placement platform; a pusher plate slidably mounted on the platform surface, with the telescopic rod of the electric push rod connected to the pusher plate; and a limiting plate disposed on the two guide plates. Between the plates, the limiting plate is located at the discharge port of the guide plate and is used to limit and press the moxa sticks from the top; the electric slide rail is set on the side of the base away from the electric push rod; the mounting block is installed on the electric slide rail; the blade is installed on the mounting block by bolts, and the blade is flush with the discharge port of the guide plate. The electric push rod pushes multiple neatly arranged moxa sticks on the placement table to the discharge port through the push plate. After the multiple moxa sticks are limited by the limiting plate, the electric slide rail drives the blade through the mounting block to cut the moxa sticks in batches, thereby improving the production efficiency of moxa stick cutting.

[0006] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the limiting plate is an inclined surface, and a rubber block is provided on the bottom surface of the limiting plate. The two sides of the rubber block are arc surfaces. The rubber block is used to elastically limit the moxa sticks to be cut. After multiple moxa sticks are guided synchronously by the guide plate and the limiting plate, they slide in after squeezing the arc surface of the rubber block, so that the limiting plate can elastically clamp the moxa sticks through the rubber block.

[0007] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the limiting plate is snap-fitted onto the guide plate, and the limiting plate can be snapped onto the guide plate at different limiting heights, so that the limiting plate can limit moxa sticks of different thicknesses, thereby improving the applicability of the device for cutting.

[0008] In addition, it is particularly preferred that a collection frame is included, which is disposed on the side of the base near the discharge port of the placement platform. The collection frame is located directly below the blade and is used to collect the cut moxa sticks.

[0009] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the mounting block is an L-shaped block with a guide rod fixedly connected to its upper part. The mounting block is slidably mounted with a limiting plate two via the guide rod. The limiting plate two is used to limit the required length of the moxa stick cutting. A lead screw is rotatably mounted on the mounting block. The lead screw and the limiting plate two are threaded together. Tightening the lead screw causes the limiting plate two to slide along the guide rod, thereby conveniently adjusting the limiting length of the moxa stick between the limiting plate two and the guide plate.

[0010] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the device also includes a contact block and a pressure sensor. The contact block is slidably mounted on the side of the pusher plate via a guide rod. The pressure sensor is located between the pusher plate and the limiting plate. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to the electric push rod via a controller. The pressure sensor is used to monitor the pressure change when the contact block pushes the moxa stick. When the pressure sensor detects an abnormal pressure on the moxa stick, it will control the electric push rod to stop via the controller to avoid excessive pushing of the electric push rod when cutting moxa sticks of different lengths, which could cause damage to the moxa stick.

[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. The electric push rod of this utility model pushes multiple neatly arranged moxa sticks on the placement table to the discharge port through the push plate, realizing automated feeding and greatly improving production efficiency. In conjunction with the electric slide rail, the blade is driven by the mounting block to cut the moxa sticks in batches, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of cutting and reducing the tediousness and time consumption of manual operation.

[0013] 2. This utility model uses two symmetrically arranged guide plates to guide and limit the moxa stick. With the help of the limiting plate one, the moxa stick is limited and pressed from the top, ensuring the stability and straightness of the moxa stick during the cutting process. The limiting plate one uses a rubber block to elastically limit the moxa stick to be cut, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the moxa stick when it enters the cutting position.

[0014] 3. The limiting plate of this utility model is a snap-fit ​​type installed on the guide plate, which can be snapped onto the guide plate at different limiting heights, suitable for moxa sticks of different thicknesses. The limiting plate is slidably installed through the guide rod. The limiting plate is used to limit the required length of the moxa stick to be cut. In conjunction with monitoring the pressure change when pushing the moxa stick, it ensures the accurate cutting of moxa sticks of different lengths. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0021] 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 specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0022] Example: A cutting device for processing moxa sticks, such as... Figures 1-5As shown, the device includes a base 1, a placement platform 2, and guide plates. The base 1 is the load-bearing carrier of the device. The placement platform 2 is fixed to the top surface of the base 1. The placement platform 2 is the cutting platform for the moxa stick 10. Two guide plates are provided and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the placement platform 2. The two guide plates are used to guide and limit the moxa stick 10. The device also includes: an electric push rod 3, installed on the placement platform 2; a pusher plate 4, slidably installed on the platform surface of the placement platform 2, with the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 3 connected to the pusher plate 4; a limiting plate 5, located between the two guide plates, at the outlet of the guide plate, and used to limit and press the moxa stick 10 from the top; an electric slide rail 7, located on the side of the base 1 away from the electric push rod 3; a mounting block 8, installed on the electric slide rail 7; and a blade 9, installed on the mounting block 8 by bolts, with the blade 9 flush with the outlet of the guide plate. The electric push rod 3 is connected to the platform surface. Multiple neatly arranged moxa sticks 10 are pushed onto the placement table 2 by the pusher plate 4 and moved to the discharge port. After the multiple moxa sticks 10 are limited by the limiting plate 5, the electric slide rail 7 drives the blade 9 to cut the moxa sticks 10 in batches through the mounting block 8, thereby improving the production efficiency of cutting moxa sticks 10. The limiting plate 5 is an inclined surface, and a rubber block 6 is set on the bottom surface of the limiting plate 5. The two sides of the rubber block 6 are arc surfaces. The rubber block 6 is used to elastically limit the moxa sticks 10 to be cut. After multiple moxa sticks 10 are guided synchronously by the guide plate and the limiting plate 5, they slide in after squeezing the arc surface of the rubber block 6, so that the limiting plate 5 elastically clamps the moxa sticks 10 through the rubber block 6. The limiting plate 5 is snap-fitted onto the guide plate. The limiting plate 5 can be snapped onto the guide plate at different limiting heights, so that the limiting plate 5 can limit moxa sticks 10 of different thicknesses, thereby improving the applicability of the device for cutting.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a collection frame 11, which is located on the side of the base 1 near the discharge port of the placement platform 2. The collection frame 11 is located directly below the blade 9 and is used to collect the cut moxa sticks 10.

[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the mounting block 8 is an L-shaped block with a guide rod 12 fixed to its upper part. The mounting block 8 is slidably mounted with a limiting plate 13 via the guide rod 12. The limiting plate 13 is used to limit the required length of the moxa stick 10 during cutting. A lead screw 14 is rotatably mounted on the mounting block 8. The lead screw 14 and the limiting plate 13 are threaded together. Tightening the lead screw 14 causes the limiting plate 13 to slide along the guide rod 12, thereby conveniently adjusting the limiting length of the moxa stick 10 between the limiting plate 13 and the guide plate.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes a contact block 15 and a pressure sensor 16. The contact block 15 is slidably mounted on the side of the pusher plate 4 via the guide rod 12. The pressure sensor 16 is located between the pusher plate 4 and the limiting plate 5. The pressure sensor 16 is electrically connected to the electric push rod 3 via the controller. The pressure sensor 16 is used to monitor the pressure change when the contact block 15 pushes the moxa stick 10. When the pressure sensor 16 detects an abnormal pressure on the moxa stick 10, it will control the electric push rod 3 to stop via the controller to avoid the electric push rod 3 pushing too far when cutting moxa sticks 10 of different lengths, which would cause the moxa stick 10 to break.

[0026] When using this cutting device to cut the moxa stick 10, first, neatly place the moxa stick 10 to be cut on the placement platform 2, ensuring that the moxa stick 10 is arranged neatly. Adjust the height of the limiting plate 5 according to the thickness of the moxa stick 10, so that it can properly limit and press the moxa stick 10. Then, by turning the screw 14, the screw 14 threadedly drives the limiting plate 13 on the guide rod 12, thereby adjusting the distance at which the limiting plate 13 limits the moxa stick 10, and setting the cutting distance for the moxa stick 10. Cut to the required length, activate the electric push rod 3, whose telescopic rod pushes the pusher plate 4 along the surface of the placement platform 2, gradually moving multiple moxa sticks 10 to the discharge port. The guide plate and the limiting plate 5 work together to ensure that the moxa sticks 10 remain straight and stable during the pushing process. The inclined surface of the limiting plate 5 and the rubber block 6 at the bottom are designed to allow the moxa sticks 10 to be elastically clamped when entering the discharge port, preventing loosening. When the pusher plate 4 pushes the moxa sticks 10 to the discharge port, the limiting plate 5... Position plate 15 limits and presses the moxa stick 10 from the top, ensuring that the moxa stick 10 will not move during cutting. When the pushed-out moxa stick 10 contacts the adjustable limit plate 2 13, the moxa stick 10 can no longer be pushed. At this time, the pressure sensor 16 detects that the pressure of the contact block 15 on the moxa stick 10 gradually increases and exceeds the preset value, indicating that the moxa stick 10 has been pushed to the correct cutting position. At this time, the pressure sensor 16 controls the electric push rod 3 to stop through the controller, so that the moxa stick 10 no longer moves forward. Then the electric slide rail 7 starts and drives the blade 9 to move quickly through the mounting block 8 to cut multiple moxa sticks 10 in batches. The high-speed movement of the blade 9 ensures clean and neat cutting and improves production efficiency. After cutting, the cut moxa stick 10 column falls into the collection box 11 set on the side of the base 1 near the discharge port of the placement table 2. The collection box 11 can be cleaned regularly to ensure that the cut moxa sticks 10 are stored neatly for subsequent packaging and use.

[0027] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments do not limit the present invention in any way, and all technical solutions obtained by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
