Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vacuum chamber technology, and in particular to a fully automatic vacuum chamber. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine, also known as Chinese herbal medicine, mainly includes plant-based medicines, mineral-based medicines, and animal-based medicines. It is a unique medicine used by traditional Chinese medicine for the prevention and treatment of diseases. Among the Chinese herbal medicines, plant-based medicines mainly come from the roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits of plants. After being collected and processed, plant-based medicines are usually dried and preserved. During the preservation process, they need to be kept dry and avoid moisture.

[0003] Existing technologies for preserving traditional Chinese medicine typically utilize storage boxes, such as traditional drawer-type storage boxes. However, these boxes are not airtight, and when the external environment is humid, the herbs stored inside are easily affected by moisture, impacting their quality. Even if existing storage boxes are made airtight, creating a sealed environment when the door is closed, humid air from outside can still enter when the door is opened and remain inside even after the door is closed, making the herbs stored inside susceptible to damage. Therefore, this solution proposes a fully automatic vacuum box. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing vacuum boxes where air can easily enter during the opening process, and to propose a fully automatic vacuum box.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A fully automatic vacuum chamber includes a vacuum chamber with a rectangular hole and a rectangular groove. The vacuum chamber has an internal partition and a side plate. A vacuum pump is mounted on the side plate. The output end of the vacuum pump has a first connecting pipe connected to a vacuum tube at one end. A second connecting pipe is located on one side of the vacuum tube, and a solenoid valve is mounted on the second connecting pipe. One end of the second connecting pipe is connected to the hole in the vacuum chamber. The chamber also includes an adjustment mechanism comprising a sealing plate that fits into the rectangular hole in the vacuum chamber and its bottom fits into the rectangular groove. A connecting plate is mounted on the sealing plate, and an electric push rod is mounted at the bottom of the connecting plate, with the bottom of the electric push rod connected to the vacuum chamber.

[0007] Preferably, the vacuum chamber has a storage box inside, the storage box has a groove, a fixing rod is fitted in the groove, and a handle is movably inserted through the fixing rod.

[0008] Preferably, the storage box has a slot, a shelf is fitted inside the slot, a set of storage boxes is provided on the shelf, and a set of holes is provided on the storage boxes.

[0009] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] Pulling the lever removes the storage box, and then removing the shelf allows items to be taken out of the storage box. The opening in the storage box facilitates airflow inside. A vacuum pump extracts air from the vacuum box to create a vacuum environment. Solenoid valves control each space within the vacuum box. Deploying the electric push rod moves the connecting plate and sealing plate upwards, disengaging the sealing plate from the vacuum box. At this point, the corresponding solenoid valve closes, automatically opening the box without affecting other spaces within it. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0017] Reference Figure 1-4A fully automatic vacuum chamber includes a vacuum chamber 1 with a rectangular hole 101 and a rectangular groove 102. The vacuum chamber 1 has an internal partition 103 and multiple independent storage spaces. A side plate 2 is provided on the vacuum chamber 1, and a vacuum pump 3 is mounted on the side plate 2. A first connecting pipe 4 is provided at the output end of the vacuum pump 3, and one end of the first connecting pipe 4 is connected to a vacuum tube 5. A second connecting pipe 6 is provided on one side of the vacuum tube 5, and a solenoid valve 7 is mounted on the second connecting pipe 6. One end of the second connecting pipe 6 is connected to the hole on the vacuum chamber 1. The chamber also includes an adjusting mechanism 8, which includes a sealing plate 801 that engages with the vacuum chamber. On the rectangular hole 101 on the box 1, the bottom of the sealing plate 801 fits into the rectangular groove 102. A connecting plate 802 is provided on the sealing plate 801, and an electric push rod 803 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 802. The bottom of the electric push rod 803 is connected to the vacuum box 1. The air inside the vacuum box 1 is extracted by the vacuum pump 3 to achieve a vacuum environment. Then, the solenoid valve 7 controls each space of the vacuum box 1. By unfolding the electric push rod 803, the connecting plate 802 and the sealing plate 801 are moved upward, thereby causing the sealing plate 801 to detach from the vacuum box 1. At this time, the corresponding solenoid valve 7 is closed, thereby achieving the function of automatic opening of the box. At the same time, the other spaces inside the vacuum box 1 will not be affected.

[0018] The vacuum chamber 1 has a storage box 9 inside. The storage box 9 has a slot, and a fixing rod 10 is fitted in the slot. The fixing rod 10 is movably connected to a handle 11. The storage box 9 also has a slot, and a shelf 12 is fitted in the slot. A set of storage boxes 13 is provided on the shelf 12. The storage boxes 13 have a set of holes. By pulling the handle 11, the storage box 9 can be taken out. Then, by taking out the shelf 12, the items in the storage boxes 13 can be taken out. At the same time, the holes in the storage boxes 13 can facilitate air circulation inside the storage box 9.

[0019] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
