Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of decoction equipment, and in particular to a double ceramic pot decoction equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine decoction, as a traditional method of herbal treatment, embodies profound medical wisdom. It requires carefully selected Chinese medicinal herbs, following strict proportions and decoction procedures. Through meticulous steps such as decocting, soaking, and stewing, the effective components of the herbs are carefully extracted to prepare a highly effective herbal decoction. This process not only reflects the profound understanding of the properties of medicinal materials in traditional Chinese medicine but also demonstrates the ultimate pursuit of therapeutic efficacy.

[0003] Currently, common TCM decoction equipment generally adopts advanced heating technology and energy-saving design, striving to complete the decoction process while maintaining high efficiency and energy saving. They are typically equipped with high-power electric heating elements that can quickly heat the liquid to boiling point, and use intelligent control to automate the decoction process, greatly reducing the complexity of manual operation.

[0004] Despite significant improvements in convenience and efficiency, current decoction equipment still suffers from the following shortcomings: 1. Most existing decoction equipment lacks intelligent water inlet and drainage systems, failing to automatically adjust water volume and drainage timing according to the needs of the decoction process. This necessitates manual addition and control of water volume during decoction, which is not only cumbersome but also prone to errors. 2. Most existing decoction equipment only possesses heating functions and lacks effective heat preservation measures. While some equipment attempts to maintain the temperature of the decoction through methods such as power outage insulation or external insulation materials, these methods often have poor heat preservation effects and are complex to operate. Furthermore, existing decoction equipment typically only completes one decoction process and cannot effectively preserve and store the first decoction to meet the needs of some prescriptions requiring multiple decoctions.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0027] While current decoction equipment has made significant progress in convenience and efficiency, it still has the following shortcomings: 1. Most existing decoction equipment lacks an intelligent water inlet and drainage system, making it impossible to automatically adjust the water volume and drainage timing according to the needs of the decoction process. This forces users to manually add and control the water volume during decoction, which is not only cumbersome but also prone to errors. 2. Most existing decoction equipment only has a heating function and lacks effective heat preservation measures. Although some equipment attempts to maintain the temperature of the decoction through methods such as power outage insulation or external insulation materials, these methods are often ineffective and complex to operate. Furthermore, existing decoction equipment can usually only complete one decoction process and cannot effectively preserve and store the first decoction to meet the needs of some prescriptions that require multiple decoctions.

[0028] In view of this, the present invention provides a double-pot ceramic decoction device, which additionally includes a second ceramic pot. The first ceramic pot is connected to the second ceramic pot via a pipe assembly, allowing the decoction produced in the first ceramic pot to be stored and kept warm in the second ceramic pot, and meeting the needs of certain formulas requiring multiple decoctions. Simultaneously, the pipe assembly enables intelligent water inlet and outlet drainage, simplifying the user's operation process. The following will elaborate and describe this device through several embodiments.

[0029] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the double ceramic pot decoction device provided in the embodiment of this utility model, as shown below. Figure 1As shown, the double ceramic pot decoction equipment includes a base 3, a first heating furnace 4, a second heating furnace 5, a first ceramic pot 1, a second ceramic pot 2, and a pipe assembly 6; the first heating furnace 4 and the second heating furnace 5 are disposed on the upper surface of the base 3, and the first ceramic pot 1 and the second ceramic pot 2 are respectively disposed on the upper end of the first heating furnace 4 and the second heating furnace 5; the bottom of the first ceramic pot 1 is provided with a stirring assembly and a pipe assembly 6, and the first ceramic pot 1 is connected to the second ceramic pot 2 through the pipe assembly 6.

[0030] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 The base 3 is the supporting structure of the equipment, used to support the two heating furnaces and the ceramic pots. The first heating furnace 4 and the second heating furnace 5 are located on the upper surface of the base 3, providing heat to the first ceramic pot 1 and the second ceramic pot 2 for decocting the traditional Chinese medicine. The first ceramic pot 1 and the second ceramic pot 2 are used as the containers for decocting the medicine. The ceramic pots have good heat retention properties, enabling them to maintain the temperature of the medicinal liquid for a relatively long time after heating. This helps to maintain a stable temperature environment during the decoction process and improves the decoction effect.

[0031] The first ceramic pot 1 and the second ceramic pot 2 are placed on their respective heating furnaces, allowing for independent or simultaneous decoction of the medicine. In this embodiment, the first ceramic pot 1 is used for decoction, and the second ceramic pot is used to store the decoction produced in the first ceramic pot 2. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The first ceramic pot is connected to the second ceramic pot via a pipe assembly, allowing the decoction produced in the first pot to be stored in the second pot, thus meeting the need for multiple decoctions in certain medicinal formulas. In this embodiment, a second ceramic pot 2 is additionally provided, specifically for keeping the decoction produced in the first pot warm. This design meets the requirement of multiple decoctions for certain formulas and effectively maintains the temperature of the decoction, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the decoction process.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a stirring component is provided at the bottom of the first ceramic pot. The stirring component is used to stir the medicinal liquid during the decoction process to ensure that the medicinal liquid is heated evenly and mixed thoroughly.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 The stirring assembly includes a stirring mechanism 7, a connecting shaft 8, and a geared motor 9. The stirring mechanism 7 is located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the first ceramic jar 1 and is used to stir the medicinal liquid. The connecting shaft 8 connects the geared motor 9 and the stirring mechanism 7. The connecting shaft 8 transmits power from the geared motor 9 to the stirring mechanism 7, thereby driving the stirring mechanism 7 to stir within the first ceramic jar 5.

[0034] In this embodiment, a stirring mechanism is set at the bottom of the inner cavity of the first ceramic pot, and its operation is driven by a connecting shaft and a reduction motor, realizing automatic stirring during the decoction process. This effectively prevents the medicinal materials from sinking to the bottom or sticking to the pot, ensuring that the medicinal materials can be fully heated, and improving the efficiency and quality of decoction.

[0035] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the pipe assembly provided in the embodiment of this utility model is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the pipeline assembly 6 includes a conveying pipeline 61, a vane pump 62, and a two-position three-way solenoid valve 63; one end of the conveying pipeline 61 is connected to the inlet and outlet of the bottom of the first ceramic jar, and the other end of the conveying pipeline 61 is connected to the second ceramic jar 2 and the water bucket 10 respectively through the two-position three-way solenoid valve 63; the vane pump 62 is installed on the conveying pipeline between the first ceramic jar 1 and the water bucket 10.

[0036] Specifically, the vane pump is connected to the inlet and outlet of the first ceramic jar via a transfer pipe. The vane pump provides the power source to pump water from the water bucket into the first ceramic jar and to transfer the medicinal liquid from the first ceramic jar into the second ceramic jar. The two-position three-way solenoid valve serves as a control element. By controlling the on / off state of the two-position three-way solenoid valve, the direction of water flow can be switched, thereby realizing the delivery of water or medicinal liquid.

[0037] Specifically, the vane pump is connected to the inlet of a two-position three-way solenoid valve via a delivery pipe, and the outlet of the solenoid valve is then connected to the inlet or outlet of the first or second ceramic jar. By controlling the on / off state of the solenoid valve, the direction of water flow can be switched, thereby realizing the delivery of water or medicine.

[0038] In actual operation, when it is necessary to use the first ceramic pot 1 for decoction, the vane pump 62 is started, and water is pumped from the water bucket 10 to the first ceramic pot 1 through the transfer pipe 61. During this process, the on / off state of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 63 is adjusted to ensure that water flows to the first ceramic pot. During the decoction process, the medicinal materials in the first ceramic pot 1 are decocted under the action of heating and stirring.

[0039] After the decoction in the first ceramic pot is completed, when it is necessary to use the second ceramic pot 2 for heat preservation, the vane pump 62 is restarted to pump the decoction from the first ceramic pot 1 to the second ceramic pot 2 through the transfer pipe 61 for heat preservation. During this process, the direction of water flow is switched by adjusting the on / off state of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 63, so that the decoction flows from the first ceramic pot 1 to the second ceramic pot 2. The decoction in the second ceramic pot 2 is kept at a constant temperature under the action of the second heating furnace.

[0040] This utility model realizes the water inlet and drainage functions through a pipeline assembly, including a conveying pipeline, a vane pump and a two-position three-way solenoid valve, avoiding the tediousness of manually adding and controlling the water volume, and improving the convenience of water inlet and drainage operations.

Figure 3The first heating furnace 4 is semi-enclosed and attached to the outer wall of the first ceramic jar 1. This semi-enclosed placement allows for closer contact with the first ceramic jar during heating, resulting in more even heating and extending the jar's lifespan.

[0042] Preferably, a first filter screen is provided inside the first ceramic jar, and the first filter screen is positioned above the stirring mechanism; a second filter screen is provided inside the second ceramic jar. (Refer to...) Figure 1 In this embodiment, a filter screen is installed inside the ceramic jar to filter out impurities in the medicinal materials, making the medicinal liquid purer.
