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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a device for detecting the moisture content of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces: It includes a detection box 1, with an annular groove 2 on one side. A rotating shaft 3 is rotatably connected inside the detection box 1. A motor 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the detection box 1, and the output end of the motor 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating shaft 3. A partition 4 and a heat insulation plate 5 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 3. The front and back of the heat insulation plate 5 are in movable contact with the inner wall of the detection box 1. Two fixing plates 6 are fixedly connected to the top of the partition 4. One side of each fixing plate 6 is fixedly connected to the heat insulation plate 5, and the other side of each fixing plate 6 is in movable contact with the inner wall of the detection box 1. A connecting rod 7 is rotatably connected between the opposite sides of the two fixing plates 6. The two ends of the connecting rod 7 extend... Extending to the other side of the two fixed plates 6, a torsion spring 8 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting rod 7, and a placement plate 9 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting rod 7. Two detection components are set at the bottom of the partition plate 4, and a cooling blowing component is set at the top of the detection box 1. Through the coordinated use of the detection box 1, the annular slot 2, the rotating shaft 3, the partition plate 4, the heat insulation plate 5, the connecting rod 7, the placement plate 9, the motor 10, the weighing sensor 14, and the pin 27, the alternating placement plate 9 can realize the simultaneous heating and drying of Chinese herbal medicine slices and the loading and unloading of materials. At the same time, during the unloading process, the placement plate 9 can be easily tilted so that the dried Chinese herbal medicine slices can be unloaded at an angle, which improves both the unloading efficiency and the detection efficiency of Chinese herbal medicine slices.

[0033] Both fixed plates 6 are provided with clearance grooves 11. A slider 12 is slidably connected inside the clearance groove 11. The slider 12 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 7. A baffle plate 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the slider 12. Through the arrangement of the clearance groove 11 and the slider 12, the connecting rod 7 and the placement plate 9 can move slightly up and down, which facilitates the detection of the weight of the Chinese herbal medicine pieces on the placement plate 9.

[0034] The detection assembly includes a weighing sensor 14 and a connecting frame 15. Both the weighing sensor 14 and the connecting frame 15 are located inside the detection box 1. The weighing end of the weighing sensor 14 is movably abutted against the bottom of the connecting frame 15. Four sealing blocks 16 are fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 15. Four connecting plates 17 are provided on the connecting frame 15. The four connecting plates 17 movably pass through the four sealing blocks 16 and extend to the outside. The tops of the four connecting plates 17 movably abut against the bottom of the placement plate 9. Four connecting slots 18 are opened on the top of the connecting frame 15. Two springs 19 are fixedly connected inside the connecting slots 18. The tops of the two springs 19 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plates 17. Two pins 27 are movably inserted into the connecting frame 15. The pins 27 movably pass through two of the connecting plates 17. By setting up the detection assembly, the weight of Chinese herbal medicine slices can be detected. At the same time, when Chinese herbal medicine slices are being fed onto the placement plate 9 on one side, they can be prevented from obstructing the rotation of the placement plate 9.

[0035] The cooling air blowing assembly includes a fan 20 and a heating box 21 fixedly installed on the top of the testing box 1. An electric heating wire 26 is fixedly installed inside the heating box 21. The suction end of the fan 20 is fixedly connected to a connecting box 22. Several suction heads 23 are provided at the bottom of the connecting box 22. The blowing end of the fan 20 is fixedly connected to the heating box 21. A connecting box 24 is fixedly connected to the other side of the heating box 21. Both the connecting box 22 and the connecting box 24 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the testing box 1. Several blowing heads 25 are provided on the connecting box 24. The fixed through-hole detection box 1, through the combined use of partition 4, heat insulation plate 5, fan 20, connecting box one 22, suction head 23, connecting box two 24, blower head 25 and electric heating wire 26, can draw air from the inlet and outlet of the detection box 1. This allows the high-temperature gas inside the detection box 1 to be drawn back into the detection box 1 as it diffuses outward after the two placement plates 9 rotate. This improves heat utilization and prevents workers from being burned by the diffused high-temperature gas when loading and unloading Chinese medicine slices, thereby improving the safety of the device during use.

[0036] Working principle: In use, the Chinese herbal medicine slices to be tested are placed on one of the placement plates 9 of the annular slot 2. The weight of the slices compresses the placement plate 9, causing the connecting rod 7, torsion spring 8, and slider 12 to move downwards synchronously, compressing the corresponding connecting plate 17. Under the limiting action of the pin 27, the weight on the connecting frame 15 increases. At this time, the weight of the Chinese herbal medicine slices can be detected by the corresponding weighing sensor 14. After placing an appropriate amount of Chinese herbal medicine slices on one of the placement plates 9, the motor 10 is started, which drives the rotating shaft 3 to rotate. The rotating shaft 3 carries... The movable partition 4, heat insulation plate 5, connecting rod 7, placement plate 9, connecting plate 17, connecting frame 15 and weighing sensor 14 rotate synchronously, causing the placement plate 9 containing Chinese herbal medicine pieces to rotate into the detection box 1 and close to the blower head 25. Then, the fan 20 and electric heating wire 26 are started. The fan 20 draws in external gas through the first connecting box 22 and the suction head 23 and blows it into the heating box 21. After being heated into high temperature gas by the electric heating wire 26, it is delivered into the second connecting box 24 and blown out through the blower head 25 to dry the Chinese herbal medicine pieces and reduce their weight.

[0037] While the Chinese herbal medicine slices on one of the placement plates 9 are being heated, the Chinese herbal medicine slices to be tested can be placed on the other placement plate 9. After the Chinese herbal medicine slices are heated and dried, the motor 10 can be started again to swap the two placement plates 9 so that the dried Chinese herbal medicine slices are located on one side of the annular slot 2. Then, the corresponding two pins 27 are removed, and the limiting fixation of the connecting plate 17 is released. The placement plate 9 can be pressed by a heat-insulating object to tilt it, causing the rotating shaft 3 to rotate and the corresponding torsion spring 8 to rotate. This allows the dried Chinese herbal medicine slices to be tilted and fed, improving the feeding efficiency.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
