Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Chinese medicinal material pretreatment technology, specifically to a Chinese medicinal material pretreatment device. Background Technology
[0002] Antibacterial ointments play a prominent role in the treatment of skin diseases. The preparation of antibacterial ointments typically requires the mixing of various traditional Chinese medicine raw materials. Therefore, a raw material pretreatment device for antibacterial ointment production is needed to clean and dry the raw materials. After drying, the raw materials are then crushed and mixed to produce the antibacterial ointment. A search of existing technology (publication number: CN216988849U) describes "a raw material pretreatment device for antibacterial ointment production, comprising a box body, with a partition fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the box body. The partition divides the box body into a cleaning chamber and a drying chamber, with the cleaning chamber located above the drying chamber. A cleaning mechanism is installed inside the cleaning chamber, and a drying mechanism is installed inside the drying chamber. This invention, by setting up a cleaning chamber and a drying chamber, and installing a cleaning mechanism in the cleaning chamber and a drying mechanism in the drying chamber, allows for the cleaning of raw materials for antibacterial ointment processing via the cleaning mechanism. After cleaning, the raw materials can be dried again via the drying mechanism, making it convenient and efficient to use."
[0003] While existing Chinese medicinal herb pretreatment devices have achieved the cleaning and drying of Chinese medicinal herbs, they still have some shortcomings: the existing pretreatment devices only involve a single spray cleaning structure, and the Chinese medicinal herbs involved, such as herbs, are either leaves or tubers. This causes the leaves to pile up in a wet state during the rinsing process, making them difficult to clean or requiring a long time to clean, which is inconvenient to use. Secondly, manual removal and transfer to the drying drum after cleaning is required, making the operation relatively troublesome. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, a pretreatment device for Chinese medicinal materials is provided to solve the problems mentioned in the background.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a pretreatment device for Chinese medicinal materials is provided, comprising: a pretreatment box, wherein a washing tank and a drying tank are provided inside the pretreatment box, and a side plate is connected to the upper end of the pretreatment box. An electric slide rail is installed at the top of the side plate, and a spray box is provided on the outer side of the side plate. An electric slider is slidably connected to the outer side of the electric slide rail, and a cylinder is connected to the lower end of the electric slider. A mounting plate is connected to the lower end of the cylinder. A placement component is connected to the lower side of the mounting plate by a suspension rope, and a material-picking motor is installed at the lower end of the mounting plate. A pulling rope is connected to the lower end of the material-picking motor, and the lower end of the pulling rope is connected to the back of the placement component.
[0006] Furthermore, the inner bottom of the cleaning tank is provided with an aeration pipe, and the outer wall of the aeration pipe is provided with an upward-opening air nozzle, and the outer end of the aeration pipe is connected to an air pump.
[0007] Furthermore, the inner wall of the drying tank is equipped with an air blowing pipe, and the inner side wall of the air blowing pipe is provided with an air blowing nozzle, and the outer end of the air blowing pipe is connected to an electric hot air blower.
[0008] Furthermore, the spray box is located on one side of the cleaning tank, and the upper end of the spray box is connected to a nozzle via a water pump, with the nozzle facing the upper side of the cleaning tank.
[0009] Furthermore, the placement component includes a solid frame, with a grid frame connected to the lower end of the solid frame, and a drive box installed on the outer wall of the solid frame.
[0010] Furthermore, the mesh frame is equipped with a brush roller inside, and a drive shaft is connected inside the brush roller. The outer end of the drive shaft is connected to the drive box via a belt.
[0011] Furthermore, the output shaft end of the material handling motor is connected to a drum, and the upper end of the pull rope is wound around the drum, with the drum located on the upper side of the center of the placement component.
[0012] Furthermore, the lower end of the pull rope is connected to a connecting block welded to the rear side wall of the grid frame, and a guide wheel is provided on the upper side of the connecting block and on the rear side wall of the solid frame, and the pull rope passes around the guide wheel.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. When using, place the Chinese medicinal materials in the grid frame included in the placement component, then start the electric slide rail drive to move the placement component to the upper side of the cleaning tank via the suspension rope. Then, the cylinder places the grid frame in the cleaning tank. At this time, the air pump and aeration pipe blow out bubbles at the bottom of the cleaning tank, thereby vibrating and turbulent the water in the cleaning tank, achieving the cleaning of the Chinese medicinal materials inside the grid frame. In particular, the bubbles formed entering the grid frame can turn over leafy medicinal materials. Then, the cylinder raises the grid frame to the height of the spray box. At this time, the clean water sprayed by the nozzle will rinse again, achieving a good cleaning effect.
[0015] 2. Using electric slide rails and electric sliders, the rinsed placement components are moved to the upper side of the drying tank. Then, the cylinder drives the placement components downward to move into the drying tank. At this time, the electric hot air fan is activated, and the air pipe is used to blow air from the bottom and sides of the grid frame to dry it, achieving a rapid drying effect. The entire process from washing to drying is fully automated, reducing the manual burden and improving the pre-treatment efficiency of Chinese medicinal materials. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a pretreatment equipment for Chinese medicinal materials, including: a pretreatment box 1, which has a washing tank 11 and a drying tank 12 inside. The upper end of the pretreatment box 1 is connected to a side plate 13. An electric slide rail 2 is installed at the top of the side plate 13. A spray box 4 is provided on the outer side of the side plate 13. An electric slider 21 is slidably connected to the outer side of the electric slide rail 2. A cylinder 3 is connected to the lower end of the electric slider 21. An installation plate 31 is connected to the lower end of the cylinder 3. A placement component 5 is connected to the lower side of the installation plate 31 by a hanging rope 32. A material picking motor 6 is installed at the lower end of the installation plate 31. A pulling rope 62 is connected to the lower end of the material picking motor 6. The lower end of the pulling rope 62 is connected to the back of the placement component 5.
[0022] Specifically, the side plates 13 are provided with a pair of parallel ones, and the electric slide rails 2 are installed between the side plates 13, and the height of the side plates 13 does not affect the movement of the placement assembly 5 between the washing tank 11 and the drying tank 12.
[0023] Specifically, the washing tank 11 and the drying tank 12 are designed as independent chamber structures, and the two chambers are not connected.
[0024] Specifically, there are four suspension ropes 32, which are respectively connected to the four corners at the top of the placement component 5.
[0025] like Figure 1In the washing tank 11, an aeration pipe 112 is provided at the bottom of the inner side, and an air nozzle with an upward opening is provided on the outer wall of the aeration pipe 112. An air pump 111 is connected to the outer end of the aeration pipe 112. An air blowing pipe 122 is installed on the inner wall of the drying tank 12, and an air blowing nozzle is provided on the inner side wall of the air blowing pipe 122. An electric hot air blower 121 is connected to the outer end of the air blowing pipe 122. A spray box 4 is located on one side of the washing tank 11, and a spray head is connected to the upper end of the spray box 4 through a water pump. The spray head faces the upper side of the washing tank 11.
[0026] Specifically, the aeration pipe 112 is designed as a disc shape, which creates a large aeration space at the bottom of the cleaning tank 11, thereby obtaining a large number of bubbles. The turbulence generated by the rising bubbles can enhance the cleaning effect.
[0027] Specifically, there are multiple nozzles, and during spraying, the material-picking motor 6 can be started. Through the reciprocating forward and reverse rotation of the material-picking motor 6, the medicinal materials inside the placement component 5 can be turned over (note that the turning angle should not be too large to prevent the medicinal materials from falling out), thereby achieving a better spraying and rinsing effect.
[0028] As another preferred implementation, by setting up the cleaning tank 11 and the placement component 5, the water source can be reused multiple times, thereby achieving the effect of saving water. In subsequent cleaning, the water inside the cleaning tank 11 is changed after it becomes turbid to a certain extent, or the turbid water is flushed out and filtered for reuse.
[0029] like Figures 2 to 4 In the process, the placement component 5 includes a solid frame 51, and a grid frame 52 is connected to the lower end of the solid frame 51. A drive box 56 is installed on the outer wall of the solid frame 51. A brush roller 53 is provided inside the grid frame 52, and a drive shaft 54 is connected inside the brush roller 53. The outer end of the drive shaft 54 is connected to the drive box 56 via a belt 55. A drum 61 is connected to the output shaft end of the material handling motor 6. The upper end of the pull rope 62 is wound around the drum 61, and the drum 61 is located on the upper side of the center of the placement component 5. The lower end of the pull rope 62 is connected to a connecting block 64 welded to the rear side wall of the grid frame 52. A guide wheel 63 is provided on the upper side of the connecting block 64 and on the rear side wall of the solid frame 51. The pull rope 62 passes around the guide wheel 63.
[0030] Specifically, the drive box 56 is equipped with a drive motor and pulleys, and the outer end of the drive shaft 54 is also connected to a pulley. The belt 55 is connected between the two pulleys, so that the drive shaft 54 and the brush roller 53 are rotated by starting the drive motor. The outer wall of the brush roller 53 is equipped with silicone strips to achieve the brushing of the medicinal materials when rotating, thereby improving the cleaning effect of tuberous Chinese medicinal materials.
[0031] As another preferred implementation, when taking out the material after drying, the placement component 5 is lifted out of the drying tank 12, and then a container is placed inside the drying tank 12. Then, the material taking motor 6 is started to drive the drum 61 to wind the pull rope 62. The pull rope 62 causes the grid frame 52 to flip forward. At this time, the rear hanging rope 32 is in a bent state, and the front hanging rope 32 is in a taut state until the medicinal materials inside the grid frame 52 are poured out and fall into the container below, thereby achieving a more convenient material taking effect.
[0032] In use, the medicinal herbs are placed in the grid frame included in the placement component. Then, the electric slide rail is activated to move the placement component to the upper side of the cleaning tank via a suspension rope. The grid frame is then placed in the cleaning tank by a cylinder. At this point, an air pump and aeration pipe blow air bubbles out from the bottom of the cleaning tank, vibrating and turbulent the water in the tank, thus cleaning the medicinal herbs inside the grid frame. In particular, the air bubbles entering the grid frame can turn over leafy herbs. The cylinder then raises the grid frame to the height of the spray box, where clean water sprayed from the nozzles provides a second rinse, achieving a good cleaning effect. Using the electric slide rail and electric slider, the rinsed placement component is moved to the upper side of the drying tank. The cylinder then drives the placement component downwards into the drying tank. At this point, an electric hot air blower is activated, and air is blown from the bottom and sides of the grid frame for drying, achieving a rapid drying effect. The entire process from cleaning to drying is fully automated, reducing manual labor and improving the pre-treatment efficiency of medicinal herbs.
[0033] The pretreatment equipment for Chinese medicinal materials of this utility model can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background technology. It achieves better cleaning effect, easier transfer and material handling, and water conservation on the basis of existing pretreatment equipment technology for Chinese medicinal materials.
