Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of medicinal material processing equipment, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine processing equipment with a reversible drying structure. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicinal materials refer to medicinal herbs produced in a specific region with specific natural conditions and ecological environment. During processing, these materials need to be preserved. Since most traditional Chinese medicinal materials are plant roots and stems or animal organs, they generally require a relatively dry environment for preservation. Publication No. CN216144074U discloses a vacuum drying device for processing traditional Chinese medicinal materials, including a drying chamber, a collection chamber, a heating mechanism, and an extraction mechanism. The drying chamber and the collection chamber are connected by the extraction mechanism, which includes a connecting pipe, a vacuum pump, and a cooler. The connecting pipe is fixedly connected between the drying chamber and the collection chamber. One end of the connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the vacuum pump and the cooler, and the other end extends into the collection chamber through the vacuum pump and the cooler. An opening slot is provided on one side of the collection chamber, and a collection box b is slidably connected to the inner wall of the opening slot. This utility model, through the combined use of the extraction mechanism and the collection chamber, achieves the recovery of free moisture, avoiding material waste. However, in the process of using the above technology, the medicinal materials are in a static state during the drying process and do not have the function of turning the medicinal materials over. This makes it impossible for the medicinal materials to be heated evenly, which requires a long time to dehydrate the medicinal materials during the drying process. This is not conducive to improving the drying effect and the drying efficiency. Therefore, it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] This utility model adopts the following technical solution: a Chinese herbal medicine processing device with a reversible drying structure, including a box body, a door rotatably connected to the surface of the box body, a square box inside the box body, a drawer slidably connected inside the square box, a first cylindrical rod and a second cylindrical rod fixedly connected to the surface of the square box, one end of the first cylindrical rod and the second cylindrical rod being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the box body, a first motor fixedly connected to the surface of the box body, the output end of the first motor being fixedly connected to the second cylindrical rod, a fixing block fixedly connected to the surface of the drawer, the fixing block engaging with the square box, a sliding groove formed on the surface of the fixing block, a locking block slidably connected inside the sliding groove, a pull rod fixedly connected to the surface of the locking block, a spring sleeved on the surface of the pull rod, and a heating wire fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body.
[0005] Preferably, the surface of the square box has a slot, which aligns with the opening of the sliding groove. This facilitates the insertion of the card block into the slot.
[0006] Preferably, there are two sets of locking blocks, symmetrically distributed on both sides of the center of the drawer surface. This improves the stability of the connection between the drawer and the square box, preventing them from separating during the flipping process.
[0007] Preferably, the surface of the door is embedded with an observation window. This allows for convenient observation of the operation inside the drying oven, such as whether the heating wires are working stably. If any abnormalities are found, timely measures can be taken for repair or adjustment to ensure the smooth progress of the drying process.
[0008] Preferably, the surface of the chamber has an air inlet, the inside of which is fixedly connected to a dust filter. An exhaust duct is fixedly connected to the surface of the chamber, the inside of which is fixedly connected to a mounting plate. A second motor is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting plate, and an exhaust fan is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. This design allows moisture generated during the drying process to be promptly expelled from the inside of the chamber, while also preventing external dust and lint from entering.
[0009] Preferably, a C-shaped frame is fixedly connected to the surface of the square box, and a block is fixedly connected to the surface of the first cylindrical rod. The surface of the block has an insertion hole, and the surface of the C-shaped frame has a round hole. Bolts are inserted into the round hole and the insertion hole, and nuts are threaded onto the surface of the bolts. This design facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the square box, making it easy to disassemble and clean the box after prolonged use, thus preventing bacterial growth.
[0010] Preferably, a collection box is provided on the inner bottom surface of the box, and a limiting groove is formed in the inner floor of the box. A limiting block is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the collection box, and the limiting block is inserted into the limiting groove. This allows for the collection of medicinal residue that falls during the turning of the herbs in the drying process, preventing it from falling onto the inner bottom surface of the box. This makes cleaning up the residue easier, and also limits the movement of the collection box, preventing it from shifting on the inner bottom surface of the box due to vibrations caused by turning, thus ensuring effective residue collection.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] 1. In this utility model, by setting up a No. 1 motor, a No. 1 cylindrical rod, a No. 2 cylindrical rod, a square box, a drawer, a fixing block, a locking block, a pull rod, a spring, and a locking slot structure, when drying medicinal materials, the medicinal materials are first placed in the drawer, then the drawer is placed inside the square box. Next, the pull rod is moved, causing the locking block to slide inside the fixing block and compress the spring. When the groove on the fixing block aligns with the locking slot, the pull rod is released, and the locking block inserts into the locking slot under the elastic force of the spring. Then, the door is closed and the heating wire is activated. After the medicinal materials have been dried for a period of time, motor number one is started. The output of motor number one drives the second cylindrical rod to rotate. As the second cylindrical rod rotates, it also causes the square box to flip over, allowing the medicinal materials to be turned over during the drying process. This allows the medicinal materials to be turned over during the drying process, making the heating of the medicinal materials more uniform. This is beneficial to improving the efficiency and convenience of the medicinal material drying process. It also makes it easier to remove the box containing the dried medicinal materials from the box, further improving the convenience of drying the next batch of medicinal materials.
[0013] 2. In this utility model, by setting up a collection box, a limiting groove, and a limiting block structure, when the medicinal materials are turned over during the drying process, the dregs that fall will fall into the inside of the collection box. When a certain amount of dregs accumulates in the collection box, the collection box is lifted, so that the limiting block at the bottom of the collection box disengages from the limiting groove on the bottom surface of the box. Then, the collection box is removed from the box and the dregs inside the collection box are collected and processed. This realizes the collection of dregs that fall when the medicinal materials are turned over during the drying process, preventing the dregs from falling onto the bottom surface of the box, making it more convenient to clean up the dregs that fall during the turning process. At the same time, it can also limit the collection box, so that it will not shift on the bottom surface of the box due to the vibration generated by the turning of the box, so as not to affect the working effect of collecting dregs.

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0024] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] Please see Figure 1-7This utility model provides a technical solution: a Chinese herbal medicine processing device with a reversible drying structure, including a box body 1, a door 2 rotatably connected to the surface of the box body 1, a square box 5 inside the box body 1, a drawer 8 slidably connected inside the square box 5, a first cylindrical rod 6 and a second cylindrical rod 7 fixedly connected to the surface of the square box 5, one end of the first cylindrical rod 6 and the second cylindrical rod 7 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the box body 1, a first motor 4 fixedly connected to the surface of the box body 1, and the output end of the first motor 4 connected to the second... The cylindrical rod 7 is fixedly connected. A fixing block 25 is fixedly connected to the surface of the drawer 8. The fixing block 25 is engaged with the square box 5. A sliding groove 29 is formed on the surface of the fixing block 25. A locking block 26 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 29. A pull rod 28 is fixedly connected to the surface of the locking block 26. A spring 27 is sleeved on the surface of the pull rod 28. A heating wire 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box 1. A slot 20 is formed on the surface of the square box 5. The slot 20 is aligned with the groove of the sliding groove 29, which facilitates the insertion of the locking block 26. In slot 20, there are two sets of locking blocks 26. The two sets of locking blocks 26 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the middle of the surface of drawer 8. This can improve the stability of the connection between drawer 8 and square box 5, so that drawer 8 and square box 5 will not separate during the flipping process. The surface of the door 2 is embedded with an observation window 3, which is convenient for observing the operation of the drying oven, such as whether the heating wire 13 is working stably. If any abnormality is found, measures can be taken in time to repair or adjust it to ensure the smooth progress of the drying process. The surface of the box body 1 is provided with an air inlet 10. A dustproof net 12 is fixedly connected inside the air inlet 10. An exhaust pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of the box body 1. A fixing plate 22 is fixedly connected inside the exhaust pipe 11. A second motor 23 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing plate 22. An exhaust fan 24 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 23. This can timely discharge the water vapor generated during the drying process from the inside of the box body 1, and at the same time, it can prevent external dust and lint from entering the inside of the box body 1.
[0027] Example 2
[0028] Please see Figure 1-7A C-shaped frame 14 is fixedly connected to the surface of the square box 5, and a square block 19 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first cylindrical rod 6. The surface of the square block 19 has an insertion hole 18, and the surface of the C-shaped frame 14 has a round hole 15. Bolts 16 are inserted into the round hole 15 and the insertion hole 18, and nuts 17 are threaded onto the surface of the bolts 16. This allows for easy disassembly and assembly of the square box 5, facilitating disassembly and cleaning of the square box 5 after long-term use, and preventing bacterial growth. A collection box 30 is provided on the bottom surface of the box body 1, and a limiting groove 9 is provided on the floor inside the box body 1. A limiting block 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the collection box 30 and is inserted into the limiting groove 9. This allows for the collection of medicinal residue that falls during the turning of the medicinal materials in the drying process, preventing the residue from falling onto the bottom surface inside the box body 1, making the cleaning of the residue that falls during the turning process more convenient. At the same time, it also limits the collection box 30, preventing it from shifting on the bottom surface inside the box body 1 due to the vibration generated by the turning of the square box 5, so as not to affect the working effect of collecting the residue.
[0029] Working Principle: During use, when drying medicinal materials, the materials are first placed in drawer 8, then drawer 8 is placed inside square box 5. Next, the pull rod 28 is moved, causing the locking block 26 to slide inside the fixing block 25 and compress the spring 27. When the groove 29 on the fixing block 25 aligns with the locking slot 20, the pull rod 28 is released, and the locking block 26, under the elastic force of the spring 27, inserts into the locking slot 20. Then, the cabinet door 2 is closed and the heating wire 13 is activated. After the medicinal materials have been drying for a period of time, motor 4 is activated. The output of motor 4 drives the second cylindrical rod 7 to rotate. Simultaneously, the rotation of the second cylindrical rod 7 causes square box 5 to flip, allowing the medicinal materials to be turned over during the drying process. This allows for more even heating of the medicinal materials during drying, improving the efficiency and convenience of the drying process. It also facilitates the removal of the container filled with dried medicinal materials from the cabinet 1, further enhancing efficiency. To facilitate the drying of the next batch of medicinal materials, motor 23 is started during the drying process. Motor 23 drives exhaust fan 24 to extract the water vapor generated during the drying process from the inside of box 1. When the medicinal materials are turned over during the drying process, the dregs that fall will fall into the inside of collection box 30. When a certain amount of dregs accumulate in collection box 30, collection box 30 is lifted, so that the limiting block 21 at the bottom of collection box 30 is disengaged from the limiting groove 9 on the bottom surface inside box 1. Then collection box 30 is removed from box 1 and the dregs inside collection box 30 are collected and processed. This realizes the collection of dregs that fall when the medicinal materials are turned over during the drying process, and prevents the dregs from falling onto the bottom surface inside box 1. This makes it easier to clean up the dregs that fall during the turning process. At the same time, it can also limit collection box 30 so that it will not shift on the bottom surface inside box 1 due to the vibration generated by the turning of box 5, so as not to affect the working effect of dregs collection.
[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
