In the present specification, the illustrative description of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the described specific features, structures, materials or characteristics can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0030] The working mode of the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation pot is to first add water to the specified water level line, then put the medicine bag into the water and cover the sealing cover to start heating (some will put the Chinese medicine bag in half an hour in advance for soaking), and wait for the temperature in the pot to heat to 100℃ to generate medicine steam which is transported to the fumigation cabin or other fumigation equipment through the pipeline. This mode has the following defects: (1) waste of medicine, in order to cook the Chinese medicine, the water level must be higher than the medicine bag to completely soak the medicine, which will cause a large amount of medicine liquid in the pot to be left unevaporated after fumigation for each patient, which is a waste; (2) Chinese medicine has the characteristics of "Shengke Shufu", and due to the high temperature of 100℃ required for fumigation, the "Shengke" effect of Chinese medicine cannot be achieved.

[0031] Therefore, there is a need for a Chinese medicine fumigation pot that can reduce the waste of medicine and evaporate the medicine liquid at a lower temperature to achieve the "Shengke" effect of Chinese medicine.

[0032] To this end, the present application proposes a Chinese medicine fumigation pot, which uses a circulating spray mode to continuously flush the Chinese herbal medicine to increase the content of Chinese herbal medicine in the medicine liquid. The medicine liquid can generate medicine steam after being heated, reducing the loss of medicine liquid. Moreover, due to the use of the fan 400 to increase the air pressure in the pot body 100, the medicine steam can be discharged from the steam output port 121, so that the medicine steam can be obtained at a lower temperature, and the "Shengke" effect of Chinese herbal medicine can be achieved.

[0033] Referring toFigure 1 The traditional Chinese medicine fumigation pot in the embodiment of the application comprises a pot body 100, a liquid storage tank 200, a water pump 300 and a fan 400. The pot body 100 is the main structure of the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation pot, and the heating of traditional Chinese medicine and the evaporation of medicinal liquid are both carried out in the pot body 100. The liquid storage tank 200 is used for temporarily storing medicinal liquid and spraying the medicinal liquid to the surface of traditional Chinese medicine, and the medicinal liquid obtains traditional Chinese medicine components in the process of flowing on the surface of traditional Chinese medicine. The water pump 300 is used for re-delivering the medicinal liquid at the bottom of the pot body 100 to the liquid storage tank 200, so as to realize the recycling of the medicinal liquid. The fan 400 is used for increasing the air pressure in the pot body 100, so as to accelerate the flow efficiency of the steam therein and promote the steam to be discharged outward.

[0034] Specifically, a mesh plate 110 is arranged inside the pot body 100, and the mesh plate 110 is used for carrying traditional Chinese medicine. A plurality of hollow meshes are arranged on the mesh plate 110, so that the mesh plate 110 realizes the carrying of traditional Chinese medicine while the medicinal liquid can flow through the meshes. The mesh plate 110 divides the internal space of the pot body 100 into an evaporation area 120 and a medicinal liquid area 130, wherein the evaporation area 120 is used for the evaporation of medicinal liquid, and the medicinal liquid area 130 is used for temporarily storing medicinal liquid after contacting with traditional Chinese medicine. The pot body 100 is provided with a steam outlet 121 in the evaporation area 120.

[0035] The liquid storage tank 200 is installed inside the pot body 100 and arranged above the mesh plate 110. The liquid storage tank 200 can carry medicinal liquid, and the medicinal liquid in the liquid storage tank 200 can be sprayed outward to the traditional Chinese medicine on the mesh plate 110, so as to complete the contact between the medicinal liquid and the traditional Chinese medicine.

[0036] The input pipe of the water pump 300 is inserted into the medicinal liquid in the medicinal liquid area 130, the output pipe of the water pump 300 is inserted into the liquid storage tank 200, and the water pump 300 is used for pumping the medicinal liquid in the medicinal liquid area 130 into the liquid storage tank 200, so as to complete the circulation flow of the medicinal liquid.

[0037] The fan 400 is connected to the pot body 100 and blows inward, which is used for increasing the pressure in the pot body 100 to promote the steam in the evaporation area 120 to flow to the steam outlet 121.

[0038] The working principle of the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation pot is as follows: after the traditional Chinese medicinal materials are placed on the mesh plate 110, liquid is injected into the pot body 100, which becomes medicinal liquid after contacting the traditional Chinese medicinal materials, and the external heating device is turned on to heat the medicinal liquid in the medicinal liquid area 130. The water pump 300 is turned on, the medicinal liquid in the medicinal liquid area 130 is pumped to the liquid storage tank 200, the medicinal liquid in the liquid storage tank 200 is sprayed downward to the surface of the traditional Chinese medicinal materials, and then flows to the medicinal liquid area 130 to complete a circulation. The medicinal liquid can increase the content of traditional Chinese medicine after multiple circulations. The fan 400 is turned on to increase the internal pressure of the pot body 100, so that the medicinal liquid vapor in the pot body 100 is forced to be discharged from the steam outlet 121. Even if the heating temperature is low, the steam can be discharged from the steam outlet 121, and the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation work is completed.

[0039] Further, the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation pot further comprises an air release pipe 500, a piston 600 and an elastic member 700. The air release pipe 500 is connected with the pot body 100, the piston 600 slides in the air release pipe 500, and the two ends of the elastic member 700 are connected with the piston 600 and the air release pipe 500 respectively, and the elastic force of the elastic member 700 drives the piston 600 to move towards the pot body 100. Among them, the elastic member 700 can adopt a spring, or other structures or materials that can elastically deform. The side of the air release pipe 500 is provided with an air release hole. When the internal pressure of the pot body 100 is too high, the internal pressure of the pot body 100 can overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 700 to push the piston 600. When the piston 600 moves away from the pot body 100 to expose the air release hole, the steam in the pot body 100 can be discharged from the air release hole, so as to urgently discharge the high-pressure steam in the pot body 100 and prevent damage to the pot body 100.

[0040] Further, the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation pot further comprises an electromagnetic valve 800, the electromagnetic valve 800 drives the piston 600 to move, and the side of the air release pipe 500 is further provided with an air inlet hole 510, and the fan 400 is connected with the air inlet hole 510. When it is necessary to turn on the fan 400 to pressurize the inside of the pot body 100, the electromagnetic valve 800 drives the piston 600 to move to expose the air inlet hole 510, and at this time the wind generated by the fan 400 can be blown into the pot body 100 from the air inlet hole 510.

[0041] Further, the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation pot further comprises a heating plate 900, which is attached to the surface of the pot body 100 for heating the medicinal liquid in the medicinal liquid area 130. The heating plate 900 is provided with a temperature control switch 910, which can timely cut off the power supply of the heating plate 900 to protect the pot body 100 when the temperature of the medicinal liquid in the pot body 100 is too high or the medicinal liquid is insufficient and dry burning occurs.

[0042] Further, the bottom of the pot body 100 is further provided with a temperature measuring instrument 920, which can monitor the heating temperature of the heating plate 900 and accurately adjust the heating temperature.

[0043] Further, the temperature sensor 210 is installed in the liquid storage tank 200, which is used to detect the temperature of the liquid in the liquid storage tank 200, so as to more accurately control the heating temperature of the liquid, and avoid the over-maturation of the traditional Chinese medicinal materials and affect their efficacy.

[0044] Further, the atomizer 220 is installed at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 200, which is used to atomize the liquid in the liquid storage tank 200 and spray it to the mesh plate 110. The atomizer 220 can make the liquid contact with the traditional Chinese medicinal materials in the form of spray, increase the contact area of the liquid and the traditional Chinese medicinal materials, and at the same time, the atomized liquid is also convenient to be evaporated in the evaporation area 120 to obtain the liquid vapor.

[0045] Further, the steam outlet 121 is arranged at the top of the liquid storage tank 200, and the liquid storage tank 200 is provided with the air hole 230 to make the liquid vapor in the evaporation area 120 enter, and finally the liquid vapor is discharged outward from the steam outlet 121.

[0046] Optionally, the pot body 100 includes the pot body 140 and the cover 150, and the cover 150 is detachably connected with the pot body 140. Specifically, the cover 150 can be detachably connected with the pot body 140 by means of bolt connection, buckle connection or pin connection, or other detachable connection modes which can achieve similar functional effects, and here will not be repeated. When it is needed to put the traditional Chinese medicinal materials and the liquid into the pot body 100, or to clean the inside of the pot body 100 after the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation and steaming is completed, the cover 150 can be removed to facilitate the operation.

[0047] Further, the pot body 100 further includes the sealing member 160, which is arranged between the cover 150 and the pot body 140 to seal. The sealing member 160 is specifically an elastic sealing ring, which can be deformed to fill the gap between the cover 150 and the pot body 140 after being pressed, so as to complete the sealing work and prevent the liquid vapor from leaking outward from the joint between the cover 150 and the pot body 140 during the fumigation and steaming process.

[0048] Further, the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation and steaming pot further includes the control panel 1000, and the fan 400 is electrically connected with the control panel 1000, and the control panel 1000 is used to control the traditional Chinese medicine fumigation and steaming pot.

[0049] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments, and within the scope of the knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the present application. In addition, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
