Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0025] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0026] Example

[0027] Reference Figures 1-5 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a traditional Chinese medicine granule dispensing machine, comprising,

[0028] The frame mechanism 100 includes a housing 101, an installation port 102 on the top of the housing 101, a reserved hole 103 on the side wall of the housing 101, a discharge port 104 on the surface of the housing 101, a discharge plate 105 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the discharge port 104, an auxiliary component 106 on the inner cavity of the housing 101, and a sealing component 107 for use with the auxiliary component 106 on the inner wall of the housing 101.

[0029] The packaging mechanism 200 includes a feed hopper 201 adapted to be installed on the inner wall of the installation port 102. The bottom of the feed hopper 201 is fixedly connected to a three-way pipe 202. One end of the three-way pipe 202 is adapted to be installed with a transport motor 203. The output end of the transport motor 203 is fixedly connected to an auger 204. The end of the auger 204 extends into the inner cavity of the three-way pipe 202. The surface of the three-way pipe 202 is connected to a discharge pipe 205. The bottom of the discharge pipe 205 is provided with a material distribution component 206.

[0030] Specifically, the two ends of the three-way pipe 202 are closed, with one end connected to the feed hopper 201. When the conveyor motor 203 drives the auger 204 to rotate, it can move the particles forward and discharge them from the discharge pipe 205, which facilitates the transfer of materials.

[0031] The auxiliary component 106 includes a mounting plate 106a fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the housing 101, a support rod 106b fixedly mounted on the surface of the mounting plate 106a, a winding shaft 106c fixedly mounted on the side wall of the support rod 106b, and a sealing clamp 106d fixedly mounted on the side wall of the mounting plate 106a.

[0032] Furthermore, the packaging bag is wound up on the winding shaft 106c, and the two ends of the packaging bag are sealed by the sealing clip 106d, making the packaging bag into a hollow tube shape, which facilitates subsequent dispensing and sealing.

[0033] The sealing assembly 107 includes a sealing motor 107a adapted to be installed on the inner wall of the housing 101. A main gear 107b is fixedly installed at the output end of the sealing motor 107a. A secondary gear 107c meshes with the surface of the main gear 107b. A connecting shaft 107d is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the main gear 107b. A main roller 107e is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting shaft 107d. A heating block 107f is provided on the outer surface of the main roller 107e.

[0034] Preferably, the main gear 107b meshes with the secondary gear 107c, and during operation, it drives the connecting shaft 107d and the transmission shaft 206b107g to rotate in opposite directions, which facilitates subsequent processing.

[0035] The inner cavity of the auxiliary gear 107c is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 206b107g, and the end of the drive shaft 206b107g is fixedly installed with the auxiliary roller 107h. The surface of the auxiliary roller 107h is provided with an auxiliary groove 107i.

[0036] When the heating block 107f is connected to the auxiliary groove 107i, it pulls the tubular packaging bag downward and seals the tubular packaging bag. Then, the packaging bag below the heating block 107f is pulled down by gravity after filling and the heat given to the packaging bag by the heating block 107f. The sealed packaging bag falls down.

[0037] The dispensing assembly 206 includes a dispensing box 206a fixedly connected to the bottom of the feeding pipe 205. A transmission rod is mounted on the inner wall of the dispensing box 206a via a bearing. A dispensing motor 206c is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission rod. A discharge hopper 206e is connected to the bottom of the dispensing box 206a. A filling hopper 206f is fixedly connected to the side wall of the discharge hopper 206e. A transfer pipe 206g is connected to the bottom of the filling hopper 206f.

[0038] It should be noted that there are five partitions 206d, which are evenly distributed on the side wall of the connecting shaft 107d. At the same time, the other end of the partition 206d is slidably connected to the side wall of the packaging box. The partition 206d divides the material into several equal parts, and the equal parts of particles are transferred to the discharge hopper 206e by rotation. The discharge hopper 206e fills the particles into the packaging bag through the transfer pipe 206g. The transfer pipe 206g is also responsible for opening the tubular packaging bag while filling.

[0039] In operation, granules are fed into the feed hopper 201. The conveyor motor 203 drives the auger 204 to transport the granules forward. When the granules reach the top of the discharge pipe 205, they are transferred through the discharge pipe 205 into the dispensing box 206a, filling the gaps between the partitions 206d. Then, the dispensing motor 206c drives the transmission rod to rotate, which in turn rotates the partitions 206d. The partitions 206d carry the granules to the top of the discharge hopper 206e, where they fall into the filling hopper 206f. From there, they fall into the transfer pipe 206g. Material is filled into packaging bags through transfer tube 206g. Plastic film is wound on take-up shaft 106c and wrapped around the side wall of transfer tube 206g. Both ends are placed in sealing clamp 106d, which separates the ends and processes the plastic film into a tubular packaging bag. When sealing motor 107a drives main roller 107e and auxiliary roller 107h to rotate in opposite directions, heating block 107f seals the tubular packaging bag and pulls it downward. With the help of auxiliary groove 107i, the packaging bag is cut. The packaged granules fall onto the feed plate, waiting for the next operation.

[0040] In summary, the cooperation between the feed hopper 201 and the transport motor 203 ensures a continuous supply of granular materials. The seamless connection between the discharge pipe 205 and the dispensing box 206a allows the granular materials to accurately fall into and fill the gaps in the partition 206d. The precise control of the dispensing motor 206c ensures that the partition 206d rotates smoothly, and the granules are evenly distributed to the discharge hopper 206e. The discharge hopper 206e transfers the granules to the filling hopper 206f, and then the material is directly filled into the packaging bag through the transfer pipe 206g, which significantly improves the packaging speed. The cooperation between the winding shaft 106c and the sealing clamp 106d quickly forms a tubular packaging bag, while the reverse rotation of the sealing motor 107a and the heating block 107f achieves sealing and cutting, ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the packaging.
