[0002] Traditional Chinese medicinal material slicing is an important link of traditional Chinese medicinal material processing, and the purpose is to improve the medicinal effect release efficiency and packaging convenience of medicinal materials through slicing process. The existing small traditional Chinese medicinal material slicing machine needs manual use of tools to push medicinal materials to adhere to the cutter, especially cylindrical or nearly cylindrical medicinal materials, the direction of force manually applied to the medicinal materials by hands is difficult to keep consistent in the slicing process, leading to uneven thickness of single slice, therefore the existing small traditional Chinese medicinal material slicing machine is difficult to achieve good positioning effect on medicinal materials, thereby affecting medicinal effect consistency. SUMMARY
[0003] The utility model aims at providing a traditional Chinese medicinal material slicing accurate positioning device, the device is symmetrical and is resisted on cylindrical or nearly cylindrical medicinal materials through four planes in two clamps, reduces the shaking degree or deflection probability of medicinal materials when subjected to the action force of slicing mechanism, so that the thickness of single slice is more uniform.

[0006] In the above technical scheme, preferably, the clamping mechanism further includes a trough and a first electric push rod, the two clamps are arranged in the trough in left-right direction, the left clamp is fixed in the trough, and the right clamp moves left and right in the trough driven by the first electric push rod.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and effects:
[0013] This invention uses a feeding mechanism to feed medicinal materials into two clamping plates within a clamping mechanism for clamping and fixing. Because the cross-sections of the opposing inner surfaces of the two clamping plates are rhomboid when they are in contact, the four planes within the two clamping plates symmetrically abut against the cylindrical or near-cylindrical medicinal materials, thus restricting the materials to only move back and forth. The medicinal materials continue to contact the slicing mechanism under the action of the feeding mechanism, which slices the materials. The fixing effect of the clamping plates reduces the degree of shaking or deflection of the medicinal materials when subjected to the force of the slicing mechanism, resulting in more uniform thickness of individual slices and improving the consistency of the medicinal efficacy.

[0017] The components include: clamping mechanism 1, feeding end 11, discharging end 12, clamping plate 13, material trough 14, first electric push rod 15, roller 16, hopper 17, feeding mechanism 2, second electric push rod 21, push plate 22, slicing mechanism 3, frame 31, motor 32, turntable 33, cutter 34, pulley mechanism 35, mounting hole 36, protective cover 37, and guide plate 38. Detailed Implementation
[0018] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0019] Referring to Figures 1-3 The embodiment of the application discloses a traditional Chinese medicine slicing accurate positioning device, which comprises a clamping mechanism 1, a feeding mechanism 2 and a slicing mechanism 3. The feeding mechanism 2 and the slicing mechanism 3 are arranged at a feeding end 11 and a discharging end 12 of the clamping mechanism 1 respectively. The clamping mechanism 1 comprises two clamping plates 13 which can approach and move away from each other. The cross sections of the opposite inner sides of the two clamping plates 13 are in a diamond shape when the two clamping plates 13 are attached.
[0020] The two clamping plates 13 are driven to approach and abut on the traditional Chinese medicine to clamp and fix the traditional Chinese medicine. Since the cross sections of the opposite inner sides of the two clamping plates 13 are in a diamond shape when the two clamping plates 13 are attached, when the two clamping plates 13 are used to clamp and fix the traditional Chinese medicine in a cylindrical shape or a shape close to the cylindrical shape, the four planes in the two clamping plates 13 are symmetrically arranged on the traditional Chinese medicine, so that the movement of the traditional Chinese medicine in four directions of left, right, up and down is limited, the traditional Chinese medicine can only move forward and backward, and the spacing between the two clamping plates 13 can be controlled to be suitable for fixing traditional Chinese medicines with different diameters within a certain range. The traditional Chinese medicine continues to contact the slicing mechanism 3 under the action of the feeding mechanism 2, the traditional Chinese medicine is sliced by the slicing mechanism 3, the shaking degree of the traditional Chinese medicine or the probability of deflection of the traditional Chinese medicine when the traditional Chinese medicine is subjected to the action of the slicing mechanism 3 is reduced by the fixing effect of the clamping plates 13, and therefore the thickness of a single slice is relatively uniform, and the consistency of the medicinal effect of the traditional Chinese medicine is improved.
[0021] Referring to Figure 2 The clamping mechanism 1 further comprises a trough 14 and a first electric push rod 15. The two clamping plates 13 are arranged in the trough 14 in the left-right direction. The clamping plate 13 on the left side is fixed in the trough 14. The clamping plate 13 on the right side is driven to move left and right in the trough 14 by the first electric push rod 15.
[0022] The trough 14 is used for containing the traditional Chinese medicine, so that the situation that the traditional Chinese medicine falls from the clamping mechanism 1 when the traditional Chinese medicine is not fixed is reduced. The first electric push rod 15 is used for driving the clamping plate 13 on the right side to move back and forth left and right, so that the two clamping plates 13 approach and move away from each other. The structure is relatively simple, and the device has the advantages of convenient maintenance.
[0023] Referring to Figure 3 A plurality of rollers 16 are arranged on the inner side of the clamping plate 13. The rollers 16 are arranged on the clamping plate 13 in a forward and backward rolling mode. The rotation axis of the roller 16 is parallel to the inner side of the clamping plate 13 on which the roller 16 is arranged.
[0024] When the medicinal materials are fixed by the clamping mechanism 1 and moved between the two clamping plates 13 by the pushing mechanism, the rollers 16 can reduce the frictional resistance between the medicinal materials and the clamping plates 13 while ensuring the fixing effect of the clamping plates 13 on the medicinal materials, thereby facilitating the pushing mechanism to push the medicinal materials to contact the slicing mechanism 3, reducing the probability of the medicinal materials being stuck between the clamping plates 13, and ensuring the normal work of the utility model.
[0025] Referring to Figure 2 , the feeding mechanism 2 comprises a second electric push rod 21 and a push plate 22, the push plate 22 is slidingly arranged in the chute 14, and the second electric push rod 21 is located on the front side of the push plate 22 and drives the push plate 22 to move forward and backward.
[0026] The second electric push rod 21 can uniformly push the medicinal materials and apply a constant pushing force to the medicinal materials, so that the acting force between the medicinal materials and the slicing mechanism 3 remains stable, thereby solving the problem that the pushing force manually applied when manually pushing the medicinal materials is unstable, resulting in a large difference in the thickness of different slices (for example, when the pushing force is too large, the medicinal materials are compressed and deformed, so that the thickness of the slice cut at this time is larger), so that the thickness of each slice can be within the required thickness range, and the slice quality is improved.
[0027] Referring to Figure 2 , the slicing mechanism 3 comprises a rack 31, a motor 32, a rotating disc 33 and a plurality of cutting knives 34, the motor 32 and the rotating disc 33 are arranged on the rack 31, the motor 32 drives the rotating disc 33 to rotate through a belt pulley mechanism 35, a plurality of mounting holes 36 are arranged on the rotating disc 33 at equal intervals in a circle, and the cutting knives 34 are fixed in the mounting holes 36 one by one, and the discharge end 12 of the clamping mechanism 1 is close to the movement track of the cutting knives 34.
[0028] The medicinal materials are contacted with the circular track of the mounting holes 36 on the rotating disc 33 through the pushing mechanism, when the motor 32 drives the rotating disc 33 to rotate, the cutting knives 34 fixed in each mounting hole 36 are sequentially and circularly contacted with the medicinal materials, and the medicinal materials are sliced through the cutting knives 34, the slicing mechanism 3 has a simple structure and high slicing efficiency, the cutting knives 34 are detachably fixed on the rotating disc 33 through bolts, so that the cutting knives 34 can be easily detached for grinding or replacement. The thickness of the slice is adjusted by adjusting the speed of the second electric push rod 21 pushing the medicinal materials and the speed of the motor 32 driving the rotating disc 33 to rotate, when the speed of the second electric push rod 21 pushing the medicinal materials is fixed, the faster the rotating speed of the motor 32 is, the smaller the thickness of the slice is, and vice versa; when the rotating speed of the motor 32 is fixed, the faster the speed of the second electric push rod 21 pushing the medicinal materials is, the larger the thickness of the slice is, and vice versa.
[0029] Referring to Figure 1 , the rotating disc 33 is sleeved with a protective cover 37, and the protective cover 37 is fixed on the rack 31.
[0030] The protective cover 37 can reduce the risk of injury caused by the operator contacting the cutter 34 when in use, improve the safety of the utility model in use, and the protective cover 37 can also reduce the probability of dust falling on the cutter 34, keeping the cutter 34 clean and tidy.
[0031] Referring to Figure 2 The lower side of the rotating disc 33 is provided with a downwardly inclined material guide plate 38, and the material guide plate 38 is fixed on the rack 31.
[0032] The medicine slices can fall on the material guide plate 38, and the batch collection of the slices can be realized by placing a collecting container at the lower end of the material guide plate 38, improving the convenience of the utility model in use.
[0033] Referring to Figure 1 The upper side of the material groove 14 is provided with a hopper 17 in communication, and the upper end opening of the hopper 17 facilitates the user to put the medicine into the material groove 14.

The skilled in the art of the utility model can make various modifications or supplements or adopt similar ways to replace the described specific embodiments, as long as it does not deviate from the content of the specification of the utility model or exceed the scope defined by the claims, which shall belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
