Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pharmaceutical processing technology, and in particular relates to a sorting table for Chinese medicinal materials used in the processing of Chinese herbal medicine slices. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces refer to the sliced medicinal materials obtained by processing Chinese medicinal materials through cutting, processing, drying, etc., and are used for decoction. They are usually used in traditional Chinese medicine treatment. The effective components of the medicine are extracted by decoction, which is convenient for patients to use. In the processing of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, sorting tables are needed to sort the medicinal materials to screen out medicinal materials of different specifications.
[0003] A search revealed that CN215030953U, published on December 7, 2021, discloses a sorting table for processing Chinese medicinal herbs. The table includes a sorting box with multiple sorting devices arranged sequentially from top to bottom inside. A driving device is located on one side of the sorting box's surface. A cleaning device is located inside the sorting box, above the sorting devices. A rotating device is located on the surface of the sorting box, opposite to the driving device. A feeding hopper is located on one side of the top of the sorting box. This utility model provides a sorting table for processing Chinese medicinal herbs. Through the combined use of the sorting devices and the driving device, it allows for detailed sorting of herbs according to their size, replacing manual operation and enabling semi-automatic operation. This facilitates the sorting of large quantities of herbs. The combined use of the rotating and cleaning devices prevents clogging of the screen.
[0004] Existing technologies use a cleaning brush to move along the screen to prevent clogging. However, in actual use, for some tightly stuck blockages in the screen, the cleaning brush, being made of soft material, cannot disengage the blockage from the screen openings, resulting in poor cleaning performance. Furthermore, in existing technologies, medicinal herbs enter the sorting box through a feeding hopper, but in actual use, the herbs tend to accumulate in the feeding hopper, forming a bridging phenomenon and preventing them from smoothly entering the sorting box, thus affecting normal herb sorting. To address these issues, we provide a medicinal herb sorting platform for processing prepared Chinese herbal medicines. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a sorting table for Chinese medicinal materials used in the processing of prepared Chinese medicinal herbs. A motor drives a rotating bar to rotate, causing a cleaning plate to rotate until it protrudes and inserts into the first and second sieve holes to dislodge blockages. A second motor drives a screw to rotate, causing the convex plate to move inside the feed box to prevent bridging. This solves the problems of existing technologies where some tightly stuck blockages cannot be dislodged from the sieve holes during cleaning, resulting in poor cleaning efficiency. Furthermore, existing technologies often cause Chinese medicinal materials to accumulate in the feed hopper, forming bridging and preventing them from smoothly entering the sorting box, thus affecting normal sorting.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model is a sorting table for processing Chinese medicinal materials, including a box body. A sieve plate is fixed to the lower side of the box body. The horizontal plane of the left end of the sieve plate is higher than the horizontal plane of the right end of the sieve plate. A sieve hole 1 and a sieve hole 2 are evenly opened on the left and right sides of the sieve plate, respectively. The diameter of the sieve hole 1 is smaller than the diameter of the sieve hole 2. A cleaning plate is provided below the sieve plate. A protrusion is fixed on the cleaning plate at the location of the sieve hole 1 and the sieve hole 2. A motor 1 is provided at the rear of the box body. A rotating bar is fixed on the power output shaft of the motor 1.
[0008] A feeding box is fixed on the left side of the upper wall of the box. A feeding groove is opened at the lower end of the feeding box corresponding to the upper wall of the box. A second motor is fixed below the feeding groove corresponding to the rear wall of the box. A screw is fixed on the power output shaft of the second motor. A convex plate is threaded to the outside of the screw. The upper end of the convex plate passes through the feeding groove and extends into the interior of the feeding box.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a bottom plate is provided below the box body, and sliding plates are provided on both the left and right sides of the upper wall of the bottom plate. Support legs are fixed at both the front and rear ends of the upper wall of the sliding plates, and the upper ends of the support legs are fixedly connected to the box body.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that guide strips are symmetrically arranged on the outer sides of the left and right sides of the skateboard, the cross-section of the guide strips is L-shaped, and the guide strips are fixedly connected to the base plate.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a connecting plate is fixed to the rear end of the skateboard, a cylinder is fixed to the rear wall of the connecting plate, a vertical plate is fixed to the rear end of the cylinder, and the lower end of the vertical plate is fixedly connected to the base plate.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the cleaning plate is rotatably connected to the housing via a hinge, the hinge being located at the rear end of the cleaning plate, and an end plate is fixed to the right wall of the motor, the end plate being fixedly connected to the housing.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a perforation is provided on the upper wall of the box, a filter plate is provided above the perforation, a U-shaped plate is fixed to the outside of the filter plate corresponding to the upper wall of the box, and a blocking strip is detachably fixed to the open end of the U-shaped plate.
[0014] The present invention is further configured such that a fixing plate is fixed to the upper wall of the U-shaped plate, a fan is fixed to the upper wall of the fixing plate, and a protective net is fixed to the upper wall of the fan.
[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. This utility model, by setting up a motor, a rotating bar, a cleaning plate, and a protrusion, utilizes the operation of the motor to drive the rotating bar to rotate, causing the naturally hanging cleaning plate to rotate until the protrusion enters the interior of the first and second screening holes. This allows the blockage to disengage from the first and second screening holes. At this point, the screening plate vibrates, and the blockage is discharged from the box along the surface of the screening plate, thus achieving the effect of cleaning the screening plate. Compared with the prior art, even if the blockage is stuck in the first and second screening holes, the protrusion inserted into the first and second screening holes can disengage the blockage from them. This solves the problem in the prior art that some blockages that are tightly stuck in the screen cannot be disengaged from the screen holes during cleaning, resulting in poor cleaning effect.
[0017] 2. This utility model, by setting up a second motor, a screw, and a convex strip, utilizes the operation of the second motor to drive the screw to rotate, thereby causing the convex strip to move back and forth in the feeding box. This keeps the medicinal materials in the feeding box in motion, which helps to ensure that the medicinal materials fall evenly into the interior of the box for sieving. Compared with the prior art, it can avoid the occurrence of bridging, thus preventing the normal sorting of medicinal materials from being affected by bridging. It solves the problem in the prior art that medicinal materials easily accumulate in the feeding hopper, forming bridging and failing to enter the sorting box smoothly, thereby affecting the normal sorting of medicinal materials.
[0018] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model relates to a sorting table for processing Chinese medicinal herbs, comprising a box body 1 with an open right end and lower side. A sieve plate 5 is fixed to the lower side inside the box body 1, and the sieve plate 5 can be fixed to the box body 1 by bolts. The horizontal plane of the left end of the sieve plate 5 is higher than the horizontal plane of the right end of the sieve plate 5, so that when the sieve plate 5 vibrates, the medicinal herbs move to the right along the surface of the sieve plate 5. Sieve holes 1 501 and 2 502 are evenly provided on the left and right sides of the sieve plate 5, respectively. Collection boxes are respectively provided below the right end of the sieve plate 5 for sieve holes 1 501, sieve holes 2 502, and the sieve plate 5. The diameter of sieve hole 1 501 is smaller than that of sieve hole 2 502. Smaller medicinal materials with a diameter of 02 fall down through the sieve hole to the collection box, while medium-sized medicinal materials fall down through the sieve hole 2 502 to another collection box. Larger medicinal materials move to the right and fall into yet another collection box. A cleaning plate 7 is set below the sieve plate 5. To ensure that the cleaning plate 7 does not collide with the collection box during actual sorting, the cleaning plate 7 needs to be spaced apart from the collection box when it hangs down naturally. A protrusion 701 is fixed on the cleaning plate 7 at the location of the sieve hole 1 501 and the sieve hole 2 502. A motor 1 6 is set at the rear of the box body 1. A rotating bar 601 is fixed on the power output shaft of the motor 1 6.
[0031] Specifically, a base plate 4 is provided at the bottom of the box 1. The base plate 4 is fixed to the installation platform by bolts. Slide plates 101a are provided on both the left and right sides of the upper wall of the base plate 4. Support legs 101 are fixed at both the front and rear ends of the upper wall of the slide plate 101a. The upper ends of the support legs 101 are fixedly connected to the box 1. With the above configuration, the slide plate 101a can move relative to the base plate 4, so that the slide plate 101a moves back and forth to achieve a vibration effect, so as to complete the movement of the medicinal materials and achieve the purpose of sorting.
[0032] Guide strips 401 are symmetrically arranged on the outer sides of the left and right sides of the skateboard 101a. The cross-section of the guide strips 401 is L-shaped. The guide strips 401 are fixedly connected to the base plate 4. The above arrangement can prevent the skateboard from moving in the left and right directions.
[0033] A connecting plate 301 is fixed to the rear end of the slide plate 101a. A cylinder 3 is fixed to the rear wall of the connecting plate 301. By moving the movable end of the cylinder 3 back and forth, the box 1 and the sieve plate 5 can be moved back and forth, so that the medicinal materials on the sieve plate 5 can move relative to the sieve plate 5, thereby achieving the purpose of sorting the medicinal materials. A vertical plate 302 is fixed to the rear end of the cylinder 3. The lower end of the vertical plate 302 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 4.
[0034] The cleaning plate 7 is rotatably connected to the housing 1 via a hinge. The hinge is located at the rear end of the cleaning plate 7. An end plate 602 is fixed to the right wall of the motor 6, and the end plate 602 is fixedly connected to the housing 1.
[0035] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: When in use, first make the motor 6 rotate to drive the rotating bar 601 to rotate, so that the rotating bar 601 loses its force on the cleaning plate 7. At this time, under the action of gravity, the cleaning plate 7 naturally falls down, and the opening of the lower wall of the box 1 is exposed.
[0036] Place the three collection boxes below the sieve hole 501, sieve hole 502, and the right end of the sieve plate 5, respectively. Then, reciprocate the extension and retraction of the movable end of the cylinder 3, causing the connecting plate 301 to move back and forth, thereby causing the box body 1 and the sieve plate 5 to move back and forth, so that the sorting operation can be carried out. Smaller and medium-sized medicinal materials pass through the sieve hole 501 and sieve hole 502 respectively and fall into the corresponding collection boxes, while larger medicinal materials move to the right along the sieve plate 5 and fall into the corresponding collection box.
[0037] When blockage occurs, remove the collection box below the first screening hole 501 and the second screening hole 502, so that the motor 6 drives the rotating bar 601 to rotate, causing the cleaning plate 7 to rotate, and causing the protrusion 701 to be inserted into the first screening hole 501 and the second screening hole 502 to clean the blockage. Then, under the vibration of the screening plate 5, the blockage moves to the right along the screening plate 5 for collection and sorting again.
[0038] Example 2
[0039] Please see Figure 1 , 5 6. This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, but differs from the first embodiment in that: a feeding box 103 is fixed to the left side of the upper wall of the box 1. Both the upper and lower ends of the feeding box 103 are open. A feeding groove 104 is opened at the lower end of the feeding box 103 corresponding to the upper wall of the box 1, allowing the medicinal materials to enter the box 1. A motor 8 is fixed below the feeding groove 104 corresponding to the rear wall of the box 1. A screw 801 is fixed on the power output shaft of the motor 8. The front end of the screw 801 is rotatably connected to the box 1 through a bearing. Meanwhile, for... To prevent the medicinal materials from getting stuck on the screw 801, a rubber telescopic sleeve is provided between the inner wall of the housing 1 and the convex plate 801a, corresponding to the outside of the screw 801. The two ends of the rubber telescopic sleeve are fixed to the convex plate 801a and the inner wall of the housing 1, respectively. The screw 801 is threadedly connected to the convex plate 801a. The upper end of the convex plate 801a passes through the feed trough 104 and extends into the inside of the feed box 103. By moving the convex plate 801a back and forth inside the feed trough 104, the medicinal materials in the feed box 103 are moved, thereby preventing bridging.
[0040] Specifically, the upper wall of the housing 1 has a perforation 105 for airflow. A filter plate 9 is installed above the perforation 105 to filter dust and prevent it from drifting away. A U-shaped plate 102 is fixed to the outside of the filter plate 9 corresponding to the upper wall of the housing 1. A blocking strip 102b is detachably fixed to the open end of the U-shaped plate 102. The filter plate 9 can be maintained or replaced by removing the blocking strip 102b.
[0041] A fixing plate 102a is fixed to the upper wall of the U-shaped plate 102. The fixing plate 102a is also provided with a through hole for airflow. A fan 2 is fixed to the upper wall of the fixing plate 102a. The operation of the fan 2 makes the box 1 under negative pressure. A protective net 201 is fixed to the upper wall of the fan 2 to provide protection against external forces.
[0042] The remaining structure is the same as in Example 1;
[0043] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: When feeding materials into the box 1, the screw 801 is driven to rotate back and forth by the second motor 8, which in turn drives the convex strip to move back and forth. At this time, the medicinal materials inside the feeding box 103 are in motion. The medicinal materials will pass through the feeding trough 104 into the box 1 and fall into the screening hole 501 area on the screening plate 5. Under the action of the vibration of the screening plate 5, the medicinal materials are sorted.
[0044] During the sorting process, the fan 2 operates to create a negative pressure inside the box 1. At this time, the airflow carries the dust through the filter plate 9. After the dust is filtered by the filter plate 9, the airflow is discharged to the outside environment.
[0045] In addition, all electrical appliances in the Chinese herbal medicine sorting table used for processing Chinese herbal medicine slices are electrically connected to an external power source via conductive wires. Furthermore, all electrical appliances are existing technologies, and their models are not limited here.
