Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Chinese medicinal material sorting technology, specifically a sorting device for Chinese medicinal material sorting. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) refers to native medicinal materials used under the guidance of traditional Han Chinese medicine to treat diseases. Generally, TCM emphasizes authentic medicinal materials, which are those produced in a specific region with specific natural conditions and ecological environment. Due to the relatively concentrated production, cultivation techniques, harvesting, and processing are also particular, resulting in better quality and efficacy compared to the same medicinal materials produced in other regions. TCM refers to natural medicines and their processed substitutes that are guided by TCM theory, have a unique theoretical system and application forms, and are used to prevent and treat diseases and have rehabilitation and health care effects. They mainly include plant medicines, animal medicines, and mineral medicines.

[0003] When processing Chinese medicine, sorting is required. Existing sorting devices usually use a vibration mechanism to control the vibration of the sorting platform, which vibrates and screens the Chinese medicinal materials to remove impurities. However, they cannot remove the soil attached to the surface of the Chinese medicinal materials, and the impurities that are screened out still need to be removed manually.

[0004] As disclosed in Chinese Patent CN215030903U, a sorting and selection device for Chinese medicinal herbs includes a box body. A feed hopper is fixedly installed on the top of the box body, and a motor is fixedly installed on the bottom of one side of the box body via a mounting plate. The output shaft of the motor passes through and extends into the box body and is fixedly connected to a first rotating shaft via a coupling. Cams are symmetrically fixedly connected to the surface of the first rotating shaft, and a sieve plate is provided in the inner cavity of the box body. This utility model provides a sorting and selection device for Chinese medicinal herbs. By indirectly driving the sieve plate to vibrate through a motor, impurities in the medicinal herbs are effectively removed. Furthermore, a brush roller can remove the dirt adhering to the medicinal herbs, thus cleaning and screening them, reducing the labor intensity of workers. The inclusion of a buffer component prevents the medicinal herbs from falling directly and suffering wear and collisions that could lead to quality degradation, thereby improving the device's protective capability for the medicinal herbs.

[0005] However, for some medicinal herbs with a lot of surface dirt and impurities, it is difficult to remove the dirt attached to the herbs by brushing with a brush roller.

[0032] Working principle: During use, the Chinese medicinal herbs are poured into the washing tank 201 through the hopper 202. Clean water is injected into the water tank 210 through the water tank cover 213. The water pump 211 is started to draw clean water from the water tank 210 through the water pipe 212 and deliver it to the water spray column 207 through the water delivery pipe 214. The water is then sprayed into the washing tank 201 through the nozzle 209 to rinse the Chinese medicinal herbs on the filter plate 206. When the water in the washing tank 201 overflows the stirring plate 205, the drive motor 203 is started to drive the stirring shaft 204 to rotate, so that the stirring plate 205 agitates the Chinese medicinal herbs and clean water, removing dirt and impurities from the surface of the Chinese medicinal herbs. Finally, the drain pipe 215 is opened to drain the wastewater from the washing tank 201. Meanwhile, the Chinese medicinal materials are retained on the surface of the filter plate 206. When the water level is lower than the filter plate 206, the telescopic cylinder 306 is activated to drive the partition plate 303 to rise, so that the connecting channel 301 is open. This allows the Chinese medicinal materials on the surface of the filter plate 206 to roll into the connecting channel 301 and fall into the sieve plate 402 in the composite box 401. The heating tube 407 is activated to heat and dry the Chinese medicinal materials. Then, the vibrator 405 is activated to make the sieve plate 402 vibrate and sort the Chinese medicinal materials. Those that are not up to standard fall into the collection box 412 through the sieve holes on the surface of the sieve plate 402. The sealing plate 410 is opened by the handle 411, so that the qualified materials flow out through the feeding plate 413 for easy collection.
