[0019] Please see Figures 1-4The present invention provides the following technical solution: a medicinal material cutting device, including a Chinese medicine slicer body 1 and a cutting mechanism 11, a Chinese medicine fresh material positioning plate 2 is provided above the Chinese medicine slicer body 1, a puncture positioning needle 21 is inserted inside the Chinese medicine fresh material positioning plate 2, a fixing sleeve 22 is sleeved on the outside of the puncture positioning needle 21, the fixing sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the Chinese medicine fresh material positioning plate 2, a limiting block 23 is slidably connected inside the fixing sleeve 22, a support rod 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the limiting block 23, the support rod 24 is fixedly connected to the Chinese medicine slicer body 1, and a Chinese medicine fresh material push plate 3 is provided on one side of the Chinese medicine fresh material positioning plate 2.
[0020] In this implementation scheme: Initially, the fresh herb pusher plate 3 is positioned away from the fresh herb positioning plate 2. The worker places the fresh herb against the positioning plate 2. Then, the controller drives the drive motor 42 to rotate, which in turn rotates the drive screw 33, causing the internal threaded sleeve 32 to move. This moves the fresh herb pusher plate 3 and the pressure sensor 5 closer to the positioning plate 2. After the pusher plate 3 and pressure sensor 5 push the fresh herb into contact with the positioning plate 2, the fresh herb applies pressure to the pressure sensor 5. The controller then controls the drive motor 42 to rotate in steps, causing the pusher plate 3 and pressure sensor 5 to move quantitatively. Simultaneously, the controller controls the cutting mechanism 11 to slice the fresh herb. During this process, the sliced herb is pushed towards the positioning plate 2 and presses against it. Moving backward, the positioning plate 2 for fresh Chinese medicinal materials limits the sliced Chinese medicinal materials, keeping them in a vertical position. With the help of the limiting block 23, the puncture positioning needle 21 is limited, and the puncture positioning needle 21 gradually extends out of the positioning plate 2. The puncture positioning needle 21 moves relative to the sliced Chinese medicinal materials, allowing the sliced Chinese medicinal materials to be inserted and positioned sequentially during the slicing process. After the fresh Chinese medicinal materials are sliced, the staff removes the sliced Chinese medicinal materials along with the puncture positioning needle 21. The sliced Chinese medicinal materials can still adhere to each other, reducing the area exposed to air and reducing the volatilization of the effective components in the Chinese medicinal materials, making it easier for the staff to preserve the fresh Chinese medicinal materials. The fixed positioning sleeve 22 can limit and protect the puncture positioning needle 21, preventing it from bending under force. The device can be used with multiple puncture positioning needles 21.
[0021] The top of the main body 1 of the Chinese herbal medicine slicer has a limiting groove 12, which corresponds to the position of the fresh Chinese herbal medicine push plate 3. The limiting groove 12 can make way for the connecting rod 31.
[0022] The bottom end of the fixed positioning sleeve 22 is provided with a relief groove 221, which matches the size of the support rod 24. The relief groove 221 can provide relief so that the support rod 24 can pass through. The width of the relief groove 221 is smaller than the diameter of the puncture positioning needle 21.
[0023] A spring telescopic rod 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the Chinese herbal medicine positioning plate 2, and the spring telescopic rod 25 is fixedly connected to the Chinese herbal medicine slicer body 1. By setting the spring telescopic rod 25, the Chinese herbal medicine positioning plate 2 can be driven to reset, and a force can be applied to the Chinese herbal medicine positioning plate 2 to maintain the stability of the Chinese herbal medicine positioning plate 2. When the Chinese herbal medicine squeezes the Chinese herbal medicine positioning plate 2, the output shaft of the spring telescopic rod 25 extends, and the spring telescopic rod 25 applies a force to the Chinese herbal medicine positioning plate 2, and further applies a force to the pressure sensor 5 through the Chinese herbal medicine.
[0024] A connecting rod 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the fresh Chinese herbal medicine push plate 3. The connecting rod 31 passes through the limiting groove 12. The connecting rod 31 passes through the limiting groove 12, and the limiting groove 12 restricts the rotation of the connecting rod 31, thereby limiting the fresh Chinese herbal medicine push plate 3.
[0025] The bottom end of the connecting rod 31 is fixedly connected to an internal threaded sleeve 32, and the inner wall of the internal threaded sleeve 32 is threadedly connected to a drive screw 33. The drive screw 33 is rotatably connected to the body 1 of the Chinese herbal medicine slicer. The rotation of the drive screw 33 drives the internal threaded sleeve 32 to move laterally, thereby driving the push plate 3 of fresh Chinese herbal medicine and the connecting rod 31 to move laterally.
[0026] A drive gear 4 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drive screw 33. The drive gear 4 meshes with the drive belt 41. A drive motor 42 is installed inside the drive belt 41. The drive motor 42 drives the gear on the output shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the drive belt 41 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive screw 33 to rotate.
[0027] A pressure sensor 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the fresh Chinese herbal medicine push plate 3; the pressure sensor 5 is connected to the controller of the Chinese herbal medicine slicer body 1, and the pressure sensor 5 detects the pressure to determine whether the fresh Chinese herbal medicine positioning plate 2 and the pressure sensor 5 are clamping and positioning the Chinese herbal medicine.
[0028] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: The operator places the fresh Chinese medicinal materials onto the positioning plate 2. Then, the controller drives the drive motor 42 to rotate, which in turn rotates the drive screw 33, causing the internal threaded sleeve 32 to move. This, in turn, moves the push plate 3 and pressure sensor 5 closer to the positioning plate 2. After the push plate 3 and pressure sensor 5 push the fresh Chinese medicinal materials into contact with the positioning plate 2, the fresh Chinese medicinal materials apply pressure to the pressure sensor 5. The controller then controls the drive motor 42 to rotate in steps, causing the push plate 3 and pressure sensor 5 to move quantitatively. Simultaneously, the controller controls the cutting mechanism 11 to slice the fresh Chinese medicinal materials. During the process, the sliced Chinese medicinal materials are pushed towards the fresh Chinese medicinal material positioning plate 2 and squeezed to move the fresh Chinese medicinal material positioning plate 2 backward. The positioning plate 2 limits the sliced Chinese medicinal materials and keeps them in a vertical position. With the help of the limiting block 23, the puncture positioning needle 21 is limited and gradually extends out of the fresh Chinese medicinal material positioning plate 2. The puncture positioning needle 21 moves relative to the sliced Chinese medicinal materials and can sequentially insert and position the sliced Chinese medicinal materials during the slicing process. After the fresh Chinese medicinal materials are sliced, the staff removes the sliced Chinese medicinal materials through the puncture positioning needle 21. The sliced Chinese medicinal materials can still adhere to each other.
