Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicinal material processing technology, specifically a device for processing and slicing fresh Stephania tetrandra. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of Chinese medicinal herb processing, Stephania tetrandra is a common and important medicinal herb. Its fresh processing and slicing play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and efficacy of the herb. However, existing fresh Stephania tetrandra processing and slicing equipment has some areas for improvement. The design of some current cleaning equipment is not reasonable enough, making it difficult to achieve thorough and efficient cleaning of Stephania tetrandra. Although some cleaning devices can provide water rinsing, they lack targeted scrubbing of the Stephania tetrandra surface. The impact force of the water flow alone cannot effectively remove stubborn impurities attached to the surface of Stephania tetrandra. Moreover, the uneven distribution of the water flow results in some Stephania tetrandra not being fully rinsed, thus affecting the cleaning effect. In the slicing stage, some existing slicing devices also have many problems. On the one hand, the installation method of the slicing blades is not flexible enough. When the blades need to be replaced or maintained, the operation is complicated and time-consuming. This not only increases the downtime of the equipment but also increases the processing cost. On the other hand, the thickness and precision control of the slices are not ideal. It is impossible to accurately adjust the slice thickness according to different processing needs, resulting in uneven thickness of the sliced ​​Stephania tetrandra, which affects the appearance of the herb and the subsequent efficacy.

[0003] In addition, most existing processing and slicing devices for fresh Fangji (Stephania tetrandra) separate the washing and slicing functions, which makes the entire processing flow cumbersome. After washing, Fangji needs to be transferred multiple times before it can enter the slicing process. During the transfer process, not only does it increase processing time and labor costs, but it also easily causes secondary contamination of the medicinal materials, reducing the stability of product quality. Moreover, this separate design is not conducive to achieving automated production and cannot meet the needs of the modern Chinese medicine processing industry for efficient and large-scale production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for processing and slicing fresh Fangji (Stephania tetrandra) to solve the problems of low efficiency, poor precision, and cumbersome process in the cleaning and slicing steps mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a processing and cutting device for fresh Fangji (Stephania tetrandra), comprising a first half-cylinder, a rotating second half-cylinder mounted on the upper end of the first half-cylinder, and a cleaning mechanism provided on the surfaces of the first and second half-cylinders, which achieves rapid cleaning through continuous rinsing of water flow and washing of the material.

[0006] The cleaning mechanism includes: a cleaning rod that penetrates one end of the outer surface of the first half-cylinder, and a cleaning ring is fixedly connected to one end of the cleaning rod inside the first half-cylinder. A cleaning brush is fixedly provided on the inner surface of the cleaning ring.

A lower connecting pipe is fixedly provided on the outer surface of the first half-cylinder, and an upper connecting pipe is fixedly provided on the outer surface of the second half-cylinder.

[0007] The inner surface of the second half-cylinder is provided with a slicing mechanism to facilitate the cutting of materials;

[0008] The slicing mechanism includes: a connector groove, which is fixedly disposed inside one end of the second half-cylinder, and a connector rod is installed on the second half-cylinder by engaging the connector groove. A main cutting blade is evenly disposed on the outer surface of the connector rod, and a groove is disposed on one end of the main cutting blade facing the first half-cylinder, and a secondary cutting blade is fixedly disposed inside the groove of the main cutting blade.

[0009] Preferably, both the first and second half-cylinders are hollow, and the cavities inside the first and second half-cylinders respectively penetrate one of the opposite ends of the first and second half-cylinders. The water inlet connector is connected to the cavity inside the second half-cylinder, and the water outlet connector penetrates the inner surface of the second half-cylinder. Holes are evenly provided on the inner surfaces of the first and second half-cylinders.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the water flow can form a complete circulation loop inside the device, enter from the inlet connector, rinse the Fangji through the cavities and holes inside the first and second half-cylinders, and then flow out from the outlet connector, thus achieving a comprehensive rinsing of the Fangji.

[0011] Preferably, the cleaning ring and the contact plate are concentrically arranged, and the diameter of the contact plate is smaller than the inner diameter of the cleaning ring, and a spring is connected between the push-pull rod and the first half-cylinder.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the cleaning rod moves, it can ensure that the cleaning ring moves stably within the first half-cylinder, and the cleaning brush can evenly wash the fangji.

[0013] Preferably, the lower connecting pipe and the upper connecting pipe are engaged and installed, and the lower connecting pipe and the upper connecting pipe are concentrically arranged. The lower end of the lower connecting pipe is connected to the internal cavity of the first half-cylinder, and the upper end of the upper connecting pipe is connected to the internal cavity of the second half-cylinder. The centers of the lower connecting pipe and the upper connecting pipe coincide with the circle of the connecting shaft between the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder, and the engaged ends of the lower connecting pipe and the upper connecting pipe are interconnected.

[0014] The above technical solution ensures the stability and concentricity of the connection between the upper and lower connecting pipes, which is beneficial to the stable transmission of water flow.

[0015] Preferably, one end of the plug rod is L-shaped, and the L-shaped end of the plug rod faces outward of the second half-cylinder.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, operators can easily pull the cutting tool out of the slot through the L-shaped end of the connector when it needs to be replaced or maintained, which improves the convenience of operation and reduces the time required for tool replacement and maintenance.

[0017] Preferably, the main cutting blade and the second half-cylinder are concentrically arranged, and the groove width on the surface of the main cutting blade is greater than the width of the cleaning rod.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, interference between the cleaning rod and the cutting blade during the cutting process is prevented, ensuring smooth slicing operation and reliable slice quality.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the device for processing and slicing Fangji (Stephania tetrandra) while it is still fresh:

[0020] 1. A continuous water flow rinsing system is constructed through the water inlet connector, water outlet connector, and holes on the surface of the first and second half-cylinders. The water flow can continuously rinse the Stephania tetrandra placed in the half-cylinders in all directions. Compared with traditional cleaning methods, it greatly improves cleaning efficiency and ensures that most of the impurities on the surface of Stephania tetrandra can be quickly washed away.

[0021] Furthermore, through the combined design of cleaning rod, cleaning ring and cleaning brush, a deeper cleaning of Stephania tetrandra is achieved. When the push-pull rod is pushed, the abutment plate moves to fix the material, and then the cleaning rod drives the cleaning ring to move in the first half of the cylinder. The cleaning brush washes the surface of Stephania tetrandra, effectively removing stubborn impurities attached to its surface and ensuring the cleanliness of Stephania tetrandra after cleaning.

[0022] 2. In the slicing mechanism, the second half-cylinder is installed by engaging with the connecting rod through the insertion slot. This flexible installation method makes it simple and quick to replace or maintain the main cutting blade and the secondary cutting blade. Simply pull the connecting rod out of the insertion slot to handle the blades, greatly shortening the maintenance time.

[0023] 3. By designing the first and second half-cylinders, the washing and slicing functions are integrated into one device. After washing, the Stephania tetrandra does not need to be transferred to other equipment and can be sliced ​​directly in this device, reducing intermediate steps, avoiding secondary contamination of Stephania tetrandra during the transfer process, and improving production efficiency.

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] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a device for processing and slicing fresh Fangji (Stephania tetrandra). Example

[0033] This embodiment discloses: a first half-cylinder 1, a rotating second half-cylinder 2 installed at the upper end of the first half-cylinder 1, and a cleaning mechanism provided on the surface of the first half-cylinder 1 and the second half-cylinder 2, which achieves rapid cleaning through continuous rinsing of water flow and washing of materials.

[0034] The cleaning mechanism includes: a cleaning rod 3, which penetrates the outer surface of one end of the first half-cylinder 1, and a cleaning ring 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the cleaning rod 3 inside the first half-cylinder 1. A cleaning brush 5 is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the cleaning ring 4. One end of the first half-cylinder 1 is penetrated by a push-pull rod 6, and a contact plate 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the push-pull rod 6 inside the first half-cylinder 1. A clearance groove 8 is opened at the end of the second half-cylinder 2 facing the push-pull rod 6. A water outlet connector 9 and a water inlet connector 10 are fixedly connected to both ends of the second half-cylinder 2, respectively. A lower connecting pipe 11 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the first half-cylinder 1, and an upper connecting pipe 12 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the second half-cylinder 2.

[0035] The first half-cylinder 1 and the second half-cylinder 2 are both hollow designs, and the cavities inside the first half-cylinder 1 and the second half-cylinder 2 respectively penetrate through the opposite ends of the first half-cylinder 1 and the second half-cylinder 2. The water inlet connector 10 is connected to the internal cavity of the second half-cylinder 2, and the water outlet connector 9 penetrates through the inner surface of the second half-cylinder 2. Holes are evenly opened on the inner surfaces of the first half-cylinder 1 and the second half-cylinder 2.
