Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicinal material processing technology, specifically to a fully automatic medicinal material slicing machine with adjustable slice thickness. Background Technology

[0002] In the preparation of traditional Chinese medicine, a herb cutter is a commonly used piece of equipment to cut Chinese medicinal materials into uniform slices or segments for further processing and decoction.

[0003] Traditional herb cutters typically employ a closed design. While this design can reduce the loss of herbs during the cutting process, the strong enclosure of the cutter can also cause roots, impurities, and other debris to accumulate inside the machine. Over time, these impurities can not only affect the normal operation of the cutter but also cause wear on critical components such as the cutting blades, thereby reducing cutting efficiency and the quality of the herbs.

[0004] For example, a medicine cutting machine with adjustable cutting thickness, disclosed in patent publication number CN220741301U, includes a pusher groove and a pusher plate. In actual use, the use of motor two, bevel gear one, bevel gear two, lead screw, and lead screw nut can drive the connecting rod and the pusher plate to one side, thus realizing the function of automatic material pushing.

[0005] However, this device only has a debris collection component at the cutting point, while neglecting the impurities generated during the cutting process of the medicinal material column. Over time, this will cause a large amount of impurities to accumulate inside the device, which will affect the cutting effect and efficiency of the cutting machine, and may even damage the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a fully automatic medicine cutting machine with adjustable slicing thickness. The present invention can reduce the accumulation of impurities inside the medicine cutting machine and ensure the normal operation of the medicine cutting machine.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a fully automatic medicine cutting machine with adjustable slicing thickness, including a support and a clamping assembly. A driving assembly is arranged in the middle of the support, and a clamping assembly is arranged at the bottom of the driving assembly. The clamping assembly includes multiple symmetrically distributed arrayed clamping plates arranged at the bottom of the driving assembly. The clamping plates located on the same side are connected by multiple vertically arrayed connecting rods, which can effectively reduce the accumulation of impurities inside the medicine cutting machine and ensure the normal operation and cutting quality of the medicine cutting machine.

[0008] The clamping assembly includes multiple arc-shaped grooves arranged in an upper and lower array on one side of the clamping plate near the middle of the support; this ensures that the medicinal material will not slide or shift during the cutting process.

[0009] The clamping assembly also includes a limiting plate fixedly connected to the top of the clamping plate, and the downward-facing side of the limiting plate is curved; this prevents the Chinese medicinal materials from sliding upward during the clamping process.

[0010] The top of the limiting plate is fixedly connected with multiple arrayed connecting plates, and the connecting plates on both sides are distributed one-to-one; even the limiting plates on the same side are more tightly connected.

[0011] The drive assembly includes a bidirectional screw rotatably connected to one side of the bracket. The middle of the bidirectional screw is threadedly connected to the middle of the adjacent connecting plate. A slide bar is provided on the other side of the bracket. The middle of the slide bar is slidably connected to the middle of the adjacent connecting plate. That is, it drives the entire clamping assembly to move relative to or in opposite directions along the direction of the bidirectional screw.

[0012] The bottom of the support frame is equipped with a support component, which includes multiple arrayed support rods fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame; that is, it can support the bottom of the Chinese medicinal materials.

[0013] The support rod is fixedly connected to the same support plate in the middle, and the support plate is distributed vertically and vertically with the middle position of the clamping component; this avoids poor cutting effect due to insufficient support for the bottom of the medicinal material.

[0014] A telescopic rod is fixedly connected to one side of the support, with the telescopic end of the rod facing the middle of the support. A cutter is installed on the other side of the support; this allows the position of the medicinal materials to be controlled and cut.

[0015] In summary, compared with the prior art, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0016] 1. This allows impurities to leave the cutting machine through the gaps between the connecting rods at different positions. This effectively reduces the accumulation of impurities inside the cutting machine during the cutting process, ensuring the normal operation of the cutting machine and the cutting quality.

[0017] 2. The concave surface of the groove matches the convex portion of the medicinal material, while the edge of the groove closely conforms to the flat or concave surface of the medicinal material. This increases the contact area between the herb and the clamping component, ensuring that the herb will not slip or shift during cutting. This improves cutting accuracy and also ensures the safety and stability of the medicinal material during the cutting process. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the following will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this utility model. Figure 1-6 The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described herein. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0030] like Figure 1-6 As shown: This embodiment provides a fully automatic medicine cutting machine with adjustable slicing thickness, including a support 100 and a clamping assembly 200. A driving assembly 300 is provided in the middle of the support 100, and a clamping assembly 200 is provided at the bottom of the driving assembly 300. The clamping assembly 200 includes a plurality of symmetrically distributed arrayed clamping plates 201 provided at the bottom of the driving assembly 300. The clamping plates 201 located on the same side are connected by a plurality of vertically arrayed connecting rods 202.

[0031] When cutting herbs, the drive component 300 controls the clamping component 200 to move toward the center of the support 100. The clamping plates 201 come together to hold the herbs. After holding, the herbs can be cut. During this process, roots or adhering impurities on the surface of the herbs will fall off as they are processed and accumulate inside the herb cutter. The clamping plates 201 are connected by connecting rods 202. These impurities can leave the herb cutter through the gaps between the connecting rods 202 during the falling off process, preventing them from accumulating in large quantities inside the herb cutter. At the same time, as the herbs are cut, they will move along with them. During the movement, some impurities accumulated in different positions will also move, allowing the impurities to leave the herb cutter through the gaps between the connecting rods 202 at different positions. In this way, the accumulation of impurities inside the herb cutter can be effectively reduced during the cutting process, ensuring the normal operation of the herb cutter and the cutting quality.

[0032] Clamping component 200 Figure 1 , 4 As shown in Figures 5 and 6,

[0033] The clamping assembly 200 includes a plurality of arc-shaped grooves 203 arranged in an upper and lower array on one side of the clamping plate 201 near the middle of the bracket 100, and the concave surfaces of the arc-shaped grooves 203 all face the middle of the bracket 100.

[0034] Chinese medicinal herbs come in various shapes. When the herb is clamped between the clamping plates 201, facing the concave and convex parts of its center, the concave surface of the arc-shaped groove 203 engages with the convex part of the herb, while the edge of the groove closely conforms to the flat or concave surface of the herb. This increases the contact area between the herb and the clamping assembly 200, ensuring that the herb will not slip or shift during cutting. This improves cutting accuracy and also ensures the safety and stability of the herb during the cutting process.

[0035] Limit plate 204 Figure 4 , 6 As shown,

[0036] The clamping assembly 200 also includes a limiting plate 204 fixedly connected to the top of the clamping plate 201. The downward-facing sides of the limiting plate 204 are all arc-shaped, and the concave surfaces of the arc-shaped surfaces are all downward-facing.

[0037] The limiting plate 204 at the top prevents the Chinese medicinal materials from sliding upwards during clamping, thus affecting cutting accuracy and efficiency. The curved surface of the limiting plate 204 allows it to conform to the top contour of the medicinal material, effectively restricting it whether the top of the material is flat or convex.

[0038] Connector plate 101 Figure 1 As shown,

[0039] The top of the limiting plate 204 is fixedly connected to multiple arrayed connecting plates 101, and the connecting plates 101 on both sides are distributed one-to-one.

[0040] Different limiting plates 204 can be connected by the connecting plate 101, making the connection between the limiting plates 204 on the same side tighter, ensuring that they move synchronously during the cutting process and will not have relative displacement due to the resistance of the medicinal material, thereby enhancing the stability and durability of the entire clamping assembly 200.

[0041] Bidirectional screw 301 Figure 1 As shown,

[0042] The drive assembly 300 includes a bidirectional screw 301 rotatably connected to one side of the bracket 100. The middle part of the bidirectional screw 301 is threadedly connected to the middle part of the adjacent connecting plate 101. A slide rod 302 is provided on the other side of the bracket 100. The middle part of the slide rod 302 is slidably connected to the middle part of the adjacent connecting plate 101. A motor is fixedly connected to one side of the bracket 100. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the middle part of one end of the adjacent bidirectional screw 301.

[0043] The bidirectional screw 301 can be rotated by a motor. When the bidirectional screw 301 rotates, it drives the entire clamping assembly 200 to move along the direction of the slide rod 302 through its threaded connection with the connecting plate 101. Since the slide rod 302 and the connecting plate 101 are slidably connected, the movement of the clamping assembly 200 is very smooth, without generating large vibrations or impacts, which helps to improve cutting accuracy and reduce damage to the medicinal materials. The bidirectional screw 301 allows the clamping assembly 200 to move in both directions. It can move towards the center of the support 100 as needed to clamp and cut the medicinal materials, or it can move away from the center of the support 100 after cutting to proceed to the next step. The bidirectional drive increases the flexibility and practicality of the equipment, allowing the medicine cutter to adapt to more cutting scenarios.

[0044] Support components 400 Figure 1 , 2 As shown in 3 and 6,

[0045] The bottom of the bracket 100 is provided with a support component 400, which includes a plurality of arrayed support rods 401 fixedly connected to the bottom of the bracket 100.

[0046] The support rod 401 supports the bottom of the medicinal herbs and also helps stabilize the overall structure of the herb cutter, improving its stability during the cutting process. Furthermore, impurities generated during the cutting process can exit the cutter directly through the gaps between the support rods 401, thus preventing the accumulation of impurities inside the equipment, maintaining its cleanliness, and ensuring a hygienic cutting environment.

[0047] Support plate 402 Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 6,

[0048] The support rod 401 is fixedly connected to the same support plate 402 in the middle. The support plate 402 is distributed vertically and vertically with the middle position of the clamping assembly 200. The width of the support plate 402 is less than the length of the support rod 401. Both sides of the support plate 402 are provided with rounded corners.

[0049] The support plate 402 can prevent insufficient support at the bottom of the medicinal material from resulting in poor cutting effect. At the same time, the rounded corners on both sides of the support plate 402 can guide impurities in the middle of the support plate 402 to leave the cutting machine through the support rods 401 on both sides.

[0050] Telescopic pole 102 Figure 1 As shown,

[0051] A telescopic rod 102 is fixedly connected to one side of the bracket 100, with the telescopic end of the telescopic rod 102 facing the middle of the bracket 100. A cutter 103 is installed on the other side of the bracket 100.

[0052] During the cutting process, the movement of the telescopic rod 102 is controlled by the drive assembly 300, which can precisely adjust the distance between the cutter 103 and the medicinal material. This improves the controllability of the cutting process and makes the cutting thickness of the medicinal material controllable. When the medicinal material is pushed out to a certain thickness by the telescopic rod 102, it can be cut by the cutter 103.

[0053] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0054] The above description is the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
