Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of drying oven technology, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine drying oven with uniform temperature. Background Technology
[0002] Drying Chinese medicinal herbs is a processing procedure that dehydrates them to preserve their medicinal properties and allow for long-term storage. Current technology often uses drying ovens to dry Chinese medicinal herbs. These ovens have multiple shelves for holding the herbs, and a hot air duct is located in the middle of the side wall. Hot air is blown into the oven through the duct to dry the herbs. However, technicians have found that the temperature difference between the top or bottom of the oven and the middle can be as large as 15-20°C. This means that herbs placed near the top or bottom of the oven often fail to dry completely due to insufficient temperature. Utility Model Content

[0039] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0040] This utility model embodiment provides a traditional Chinese medicine drying oven with uniform temperature. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figures 1-5 The temperature-uniform drying oven for traditional Chinese medicine includes a cabinet unit, drawers 20, and doors 12.
[0041] Specifically,
[0042] The enclosure unit includes an enclosure 10 and a heating component. The heating component is located inside the enclosure 10 and can heat the interior of the enclosure 10.
[0043] The box body 10 has an open side, and the upper and lower sides of the side wall of the box body on the open side are respectively provided with guide rails 11, and the upper and lower opposing surfaces between the two guide rails 11 are provided with sliding grooves.
[0044] Multiple heating components are arranged at intervals from top to bottom within the housing 10. Each heating component includes a heating plate, an inlet pipe 14, and an outlet pipe 15. The heating plate is installed on the rear side of the housing 10 and has a guide channel inside for guiding the flow of the heating medium, which can be hot air, hot steam, etc. The inlet pipe 14 is used to feed the heating medium into the heating plate and is connected to an external heating medium delivery pipe. The outlet pipe 15 is used to discharge the heating medium from the heating plate. The inlet pipe 14 and outlet pipe 15 are connected to the front and rear sides of the heating plate, respectively. The inlet pipe 14 and outlet pipe 15 located on the rear side of the heating plate penetrate the rear side of the housing 10.
[0045] Preferably, the heating plate is a cross-shaped plate body composed of a connecting plate portion 130 and an extension plate portion 131. The connecting plate portion 130 extends in the front-to-back direction, and the extension plate portions 131 are located on the left and right sides of the connecting plate portion 130. The interiors of the connecting plate portion 130 and the extension plate portion 131 are connected. Each extension plate portion 131 has a flow-expanding plate portion 132 at its end. The size of the flow-expanding plate portion 132 gradually increases from its connection with the extension plate portion 131 to its end.
[0046] When the heating medium is hot air, preferably, a number of through holes are provided on the top and / or bottom surface of the heating plate, and the housing 10 is also provided with an air outlet duct.
[0047] Drawer 20 is slidably connected to the housing 10. A heating slot 201 for matching heating components is provided on the rear side of drawer 20, allowing each heating component to be inserted into its corresponding heating slot 201 within the drawer that slides into the housing 10. When drawer 20 slides into the housing 10, the front side of drawer 20 is penetrated by an inlet pipe 14 / outlet pipe 15 located in front of the heating plate. The top surface of drawer 20 has a receiving space 200 for placing traditional Chinese medicine. The provision of corresponding heating components in each drawer 20 ensures even heating of the placed traditional Chinese medicine. A pull groove is provided on the bottom surface of the drawer to facilitate pulling drawer 20 out of the housing 10.
[0048] The heating medium enters the heating plate through the feed pipe 14. The heating plate, located in the heating tank 201, concentrates the heat in the drawer 20, which helps to accelerate the drying speed of traditional Chinese medicine.
[0049] The box doors 12 are located on the left and right sides of the open opening. The upper and lower ends of each box door 12 are slidably connected to corresponding sliding grooves. The two box doors 12 are sealed by sliding towards each other along the extension direction of the sliding grooves. Conversely, when the two box doors 12 slide away from each other along the extension direction of the sliding grooves, the box body 10 is opened. Each box door has a snap-fit groove on the side near the other box door. When the two box doors 12 slide towards each other to seal the open opening of the box body 10, the through hole formed by the two snap-fit grooves is connected by the feed pipe 14 / discharge pipe 15 located on the front side of the heating plate. Preferably, a sealing ring is provided between the feed pipe 14 / discharge pipe 15 located on the front side of the heating plate and the snap-fit groove.
[0050] Based on the above embodiments, the working principle of this application is as follows:
[0051] Place the Chinese medicine in drawer 20, slide drawer 20 into box 10, and then slide the two boxes 12 towards each other to seal the open side of box 10. Connect the heating medium conveying pipe to the feed pipe 14, and the heating medium enters the heating plate in drawer 20 through feed pipe 14 to dry the Chinese medicine. After drying, remove the heating medium conveying pipe, slide the two boxes 12 away from each other to fully open box 10, and pull out drawer 20.
[0052] Based on the above embodiments, the advantages of this application are:
[0053] By equipping each drawer 20 with a heating element, the Chinese medicine placed in each drawer 20 can be heated evenly. At the same time, the heat concentrated in the drawer 20 helps to accelerate the drying speed of the Chinese medicine, thereby preventing the phenomenon that only the Chinese medicine placed in the middle few drawers 20 can meet the drying requirements due to the large temperature difference between the top and bottom of the Chinese medicine drying box 10.
