[0026] This utility model provides an automated slicing and grading screening device for traditional Chinese medicine. Compared with the prior art, it combines the functions of automatic slicing and grading screening of traditional Chinese medicine, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0027] In another embodiment of this utility model, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 A sliding frame 26 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support 14. The sliding frame 26 is set on both sides of the upper surface of the support 14. A pulley 25 is slidably connected inside the sliding frame 26. The pulley 25 is limited by the sliding frame 26. The pulley 25 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the sieve frame 24. A sieve plate 27 is fixedly connected inside the sieve frame 24. An upper inclined plate 28 is fixedly connected inside the sieve frame 24. A lower inclined plate 29 is fixedly connected inside the sieve frame 24. The sieve plate 27 inside the sieve frame 24 is used to screen Chinese herbal medicine slices of different sizes.

Larger Chinese herbal medicine slices remain on the upper surface of the sieve plate 27 and are discharged through the upper inclined plate 28.
[0028] Working Principle: In operation, the herbs to be sliced are first placed on the upper surface of conveyor belt 4. Motor 2 is started, and its output drives hub 3 to rotate, which in turn drives conveyor belt 4. Conveyor belt 4 drives hub 5 to rotate, thus continuously conveying the herbs. When the herbs reach the fixed plate 6, telescopic rod 9 is activated, causing pressure plate 10 to press down and hold the herbs in place. Telescopic rods 11 on both sides are then activated, causing cutting plate 12 to slide up and down repeatedly to cut the herbs. During the cutting process, conveyor belt 4 continues to rotate, continuously conveying the herbs for continuous cutting. After slicing, the herbs fall into discharge frame 13 and then into screening frame 24. Motor 15 is then started, and its output drives hub 16 to rotate, which in turn drives belt 17 to rotate. This drives the hub 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting shaft 19 to rotate, thereby driving the eccentric wheel 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 22 to reciprocate. During the reciprocating motion, the connecting rod 22 drives the fixed rod 23 and the sieve frame 24 to reciprocate. While the sieve frame 24 is reciprocating, it drives the pulley 25 to slide within the sliding frame 26, thereby performing shaking screening. The Chinese medicine slices shake inside the sieve frame 24 and are screened through the sieve plate 27. Smaller slices fall to the bottom of the sieve frame 24 through the sieve plate 27, while larger slices remain on the upper surface of the sieve plate 27. The collection bags are respectively placed on the outside of the upper inclined plate 28 and the lower inclined plate 29. Smaller slices are fed through the lower inclined plate 29, and larger slices are fed through the upper inclined plate 28, thereby realizing automatic slicing and grading screening of Chinese medicine.
[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
