Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece processing technology, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Prepared medicinal slices refer to thin slices or fragments of medicinal materials of a certain size that have been processed by cleaning, cutting, roasting and other procedures under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory, so as to facilitate prescription, preparation and clinical application.

[0003] However, in existing technologies, stacking can impede air circulation between the medicinal slices, making it difficult for heat and moisture to be transferred evenly. The moisture in the slices inside the stack is difficult to dissipate, while the outer slices dry relatively quickly, resulting in inconsistent drying levels and affecting the consistency of the medicinal slice quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem in the prior art that the accumulation of medicinal materials leads to inconsistent drying, and to propose a drying device for medicinal materials.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a drying device for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, including a fixed frame, a hot air blower installed at the top center of the fixed frame, and a feeding mechanism installed inside the fixed frame;

[0006] The feeding mechanism includes a base plate, a frame on the top of the base plate, and two side plates symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the base plate. A lifting rod is slidably connected to the center of the top of the frame, and a drive box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting rod. Sliding rods are slidably connected to both ends of the drive box, and both ends of the sliding rods are fixedly connected to the frame. A first spring is provided at the top and bottom of the drive box, and the first spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the sliding rod.

[0007] Preferably, a feeding plate is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting rod, and the feeding plate is located inside the fixed frame.

[0008] Preferably, a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the side wall of the drive box, and an eccentric wheel is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod.

[0009] Preferably, movable rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the frame, and one end of each movable rod passes through the side plate.

[0010] Preferably, a second spring is provided between the side plate and the frame.

[0011] Preferably, the second spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the movable rod.

[0012] Preferably, a heating element is installed inside the hot air blower.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. In this utility model, when the rotating rod rotates and drives the eccentric wheel to rotate, the centrifugal force generated by the eccentric wheel causes violent movement of the drive box, which in turn pushes the lifting rod to move up and down, generating the up-and-down reciprocating motion of the feeding plate. During this process, the frame sways left and right, causing the moving rod to swing left and right. The up-and-down motion of the feeding plate and the left-and-right motion of the frame combine to form a unique shaking effect. At the same time, the first spring and the second springs on both sides of the frame are under force, further aggravating the shaking frequency of the entire frame. This shaking effect causes the feeding plate to fluctuate laterally while moving up and down, causing the tablets and slices to be strongly thrown off the surface of the conveying trough and move along the conveying trough towards the hot air blower, thereby effectively preventing uneven drying caused by local accumulation.

[0015] 2. In this utility model, the drive box not only slides along the slide bar during the lifting process, but also provides elastic feedback force by compressing the first spring, which effectively alleviates the vibration and impact during the lifting process and ensures the smoothness of the movement. The compression effect of the first spring makes the lifting of the drive box smoother and avoids unnecessary vibration. In addition, when the frame moves left and right, it slides through the connection with the movable rod and compresses the second spring. The buffering effect of the second spring reduces the frictional resistance in the reciprocating movement of the frame, and improves the smoothness and stability of the movement.

[0021] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0022] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0023] Example 1: As Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides a drying device for Chinese herbal medicine slices, including a fixed frame 1, a hot air blower 2 installed at the top center of the fixed frame 1, and a feeding mechanism 3 installed on the inner side of the fixed frame 1;

[0024] The feeding mechanism 3 includes a base plate 32, a frame 34 is provided on the top of the base plate 32, and two side plates 33 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 32. A lifting rod 311 is slidably connected to the center of the top of the frame 34. A drive box 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting rod 311. Slide rods 36 are slidably connected to both ends of the drive box 35. Both ends of the slide rods 36 are fixedly connected to the frame 34. A first spring 361 is provided at the top and bottom of the drive box 35. The first spring 361 is sleeved on the outer surface of the slide rod 36.

[0025] The specific settings and functions of this embodiment will be described in detail below. When the rotating rod 351 rotates, it drives the eccentric wheel 352 to rotate. The rotation of the eccentric wheel 352 generates a certain centrifugal force, which causes the drive box 35 to move violently. Driven by the drive box 35, the lifting rod 311 moves up and down, thereby causing the feeding plate 31 to move up and down reciprocally. This movement process is not limited to the up and down direction, but is also accompanied by the left and right movement of the frame 34. Under the restriction of the movable rod 37, the frame 34 swings left and right.

[0026] This complex coordinated motion results in the feeding plate 31 exhibiting a simultaneous up-and-down and left-and-right movement pattern when receiving power from the lifting rod 311. Specifically, the up-and-down movement of the feeding plate 31 is accompanied by the left-and-right swaying of the frame 34, creating a unique dynamic effect and forming a shaking-like state. During this process, the first spring 361 is compressed by the drive box 35, and the second springs 371 on both sides of the frame 34 are also subjected to corresponding pressure, further amplifying the swaying frequency of the entire frame 34.

[0027] Due to this shaking effect, the feeding plate 31 not only moves vertically but also oscillates horizontally. When the feeding plate 31 moves vertically, the tablets and slices are strongly thrown off the surface of the conveying trough, creating a throwing motion. This motion causes the medicine to move along the conveying trough towards the bottom of the hot air blower 2, preventing uneven drying caused by accumulation.

[0028] Example 2: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a feeding plate 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting rod 311, and the feeding plate 31 is located inside the fixed frame 1. A rotating rod 351 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the drive box 35, and an eccentric wheel 352 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod 351. Movable rods 37 are fixedly connected to both sides of the frame 34, and one end of the movable rod 37 passes through the side plate 33. A second spring 371 is provided between the side plate 33 and the frame 34. The second spring 371 is sleeved on the outer surface of the movable rod 37. A heating tube is installed inside the hot air blower 2.

[0029] The overall effect of this embodiment is that, during the lifting and lowering process, the movement trajectory of the drive box 35 is not merely a simple sliding along the slide bar 36. Specifically, while the drive box 35 slides along the slide bar 36, it also exerts a compressive force on the first spring 361 on the outer surface of the slide bar 36. When compressed, the first spring 361 undergoes a certain degree of compression, providing elastic feedback force, thereby effectively mitigating the vibration and impact during the lifting and lowering process of the drive box 35, ensuring a smooth and stable lifting and lowering process.

[0030] Meanwhile, as the frame 34 moves left and right, its connection with the movable rod 37 causes the rod 37 to slide relative to the side plate 33. During this process, the sliding of the movable rod 37 is not merely a change in mechanical position, but also involves the compression of the second spring 371. The compressed second spring 371 provides a buffering effect, making the left-right reciprocating motion of the frame 34 smoother. This compression of the spring not only reduces the frictional resistance of the frame 34 during left-right movement but also effectively controls the stability during motion, preventing excessive inertia or vibration from affecting the equipment.

[0031] The operating principle and usage of this device are as follows: When the rotating rod 351 rotates, it drives the eccentric wheel 352 to rotate as well. The centrifugal force generated at this time causes the drive box 35 to move. The movement of the drive box 35 then drives the lifting rod 311 to move up and down, causing the feeding plate 31 to reciprocate up and down. At the same time, the movement of the frame 34 will drive the movable rod 37 to move left and right. Therefore, when the movement of the lifting rod 311 is transmitted to the feeding plate 31, the feeding plate 31 will move left and right in addition to moving up and down.

[0032] During this process, the drive box 35 slides along the slide rod 36 during lifting and lowering, compressing the first spring 361 on the outer surface of the slide rod 36. When the frame 34 moves left and right, it drives the movable rod 37 to slide relative to the side plate 33, simultaneously compressing the second springs 371 on both sides, thus aiding the frame 34 in its reciprocating left-right movement. The continuous compression of the first spring 361 and the second spring 371 causes the entire frame 34 to shake more frequently. The feeding plate 31, through shaking, throws the medicinal slices off the surface of the conveying trough during its up-and-down movement, creating a throwing motion. This repetitive motion not only moves the medicine downwards towards the hot air blower 2 but also gradually spreads out the accumulated medicinal slices, preventing accumulation and improving the drying effect.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
