Detailed Implementation

[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown; a traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece screening and grading device includes a feeding hopper 1, grading and screening devices 2, a cylinder 3, a lifting rod 4, a stabilizing ring 5, a swing plate 6, a fixed frame 8, a connecting frame 10, and a screening power device. Several grading and screening devices 2 are connected sequentially from top to bottom. The feeding hopper 1 is connected to one end of the sequentially connected grading and screening devices 2 and the other end is connected to the stabilizing ring 5. The stabilizing ring 5 is connected to the swing plate 6 via the connecting frame 10. The swing plate 6 is connected to the fixed frame 8 via the screening power device. The cylinder 3 is connected to... The piston rod is connected to one end of the lifting rod 4 on the connecting frame 10. The other end of the lifting rod 4 passes through several grading and screening devices 2 and is connected to them in a transmission manner. The grading and screening device 2 includes a screening ring 21, a screening port 22, a distance fixing device 23, a feeding plate 24, a conical sliding ring 25, a connecting rod 26, a guide hopper 27, and a discharge pipe 28. Several screening ports 22 are opened on one end of the screening ring 21. The conical sliding ring 25 is connected to one end of the screening ring 21 near the screening port 22. The conical sliding ring 25 is connected to several connecting rods. 26 is connected to the inner wall of the screening ring 21 of the adjacent grading and screening device 2 below. The guide hopper 27 is connected to the conical sliding ring 25. One end of the discharge pipe 28 is connected to the guide hopper 27. The discharge plate 24 is set inside the guide hopper 27 and cooperates with one end of the screening ring 21 and is connected to the lifting rod 4. The distance fixing device 23 is connected to the screening ring 21 and cooperates with the screening port 22. The distance fixing device 23 includes a positioning ring 29 and a positioning rod 210. The positioning ring 29 is evenly provided with a plurality of positioning screw holes 2 for connecting the positioning rod 210. 11. Several positioning rods 210 are connected to the positioning ring 29; the screening power device includes a swing motor 7 and a Z-shaped rotating rod 9, the two ends of several Z-shaped rotating rods 9 are movably connected between the swing plate 6 and the fixed frame 8, the swing motor 7 is mounted on the fixed frame 8 and the power rod is connected to one end of one of the Z-shaped rotating rods 9; the screening power device includes a vibration motor and a spring, several springs are connected between the swing plate 6 and the fixed frame 8, and the vibration motor is mounted on the swing plate 6; the feeding plate 24 is arc-shaped.

[0021] The Chinese herbal medicine slices are fed into the grading and screening device 2 below through the feed hopper 1. The grading and screening device 2 gradually filters out Chinese herbal medicine slices of uniform size. The screening power device drives the swing plate 6 to vibrate or centrifuge, so that the Chinese herbal medicine slices are screened. When the grading and screening device 2 is working, the Chinese herbal medicine slices enter the screening ring 21 and fall onto the feed plate 24. The sliced ​​medicinal materials are easy to flatten at this time. With vibration, even the vertical medicinal materials will fall down and become flat. Through vibration or centrifugal rotation, the Chinese herbal medicine slices move towards the screening port 22 and are screened and discharged by the distance device 23. The screened Chinese herbal medicine slices slide down through the conical sliding ring 25, pass through the connecting rod 26 and enter the screening ring 21 of the grading and screening device 2 below. This process is repeated to screen. After one batch of screening is completed, the lifting rod is driven by the cylinder 3. 4. Lifting: The lifting rod 4 drives the feeding plate 24 to lift, so that the feeding plate 24 enters the guide hopper 27.
