[0035] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a root and stem separation device for processing Atractylodes lancea includes a base plate 1. A conveyor 2 is fixedly mounted on the top of the base plate 1. Two limiting plates 3 are provided on the track of the conveyor 2. Each limiting plate 3 is detachably connected to one side of the conveyor 2.

A lead screw slide 5 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting frame 4 near the conveyor 2. A mounting plate 6 is fixedly mounted on the slider of the lead screw slide 5. A waste removal assembly is mounted on the side of the mounting plate 6 away from the material blocking assembly. A cutting assembly is mounted on the side of the mounting plate 6 near the material blocking assembly. A clamping assembly is elastically connected to the side of the cutting end of the cutting assembly, and the clamping assembly is drively connected to the cutting assembly.
[0036] As an optional embodiment, the material stop assembly includes:
[0037] The support frame 7 has its bottom fixed to the side of the conveyor 2;
[0038] The first cylinder 8 is fixedly mounted on the top of the support frame 7, and the telescopic rod of the first cylinder 8 passes through the top of the support frame 7.
[0039] The baffle 9 is slidably connected between the two limiting plates 3 in the up-down direction, and the top of the baffle 9 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod of the first cylinder 8.
[0040] like Figure 1As shown, before cutting, the two ends of the root of Atractylodes lancea are clamped by the clamping assembly and the baffle 9. After the root of Atractylodes lancea is cut, the baffle 9 is moved upward by the first cylinder 8 to release the obstruction of the conveyor 2. The root of Atractylodes lancea is then moved to the next process by the conveyor 2.
[0041] As an optional embodiment, the waste removal assembly includes:
[0042] The support plate 10 has one end fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 6;
[0043] The second cylinder 11 is fixedly mounted on the top of the support plate 10, and the telescopic rod of the second cylinder 11 passes through the top of the support plate 10 and is fixedly mounted on the first connecting plate 12.
[0044] The first guide rod 13 is inserted through the support plate 10, and one end of the first guide rod 13 is fixedly connected to the first connecting plate 12.
[0045] The second connecting plate 14 has one end in a vertical position and is fixedly connected to the end of the first connecting plate 12 away from the mounting plate 6.
[0046] A rotary motor 15 is fixedly mounted on one side of the second connecting plate 14, and the output shaft of the rotary motor 15 passes through the second connecting plate 14 and is fixedly mounted on a third connecting plate 16;
[0047] A finger cylinder 17 is fixed on the third connecting plate 16. A first clamping plate 18 is fixed on each of the two drive arms of the finger cylinder 17. One end of each first clamping plate 18 is located on the top of the two limiting plates 3 on the side close to each other.
[0048] As an optional embodiment, anti-slip teeth 19 are fixed on the side of the two first clamping plates 18 that are close to each other.
[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, after the root of Atractylodes lancea is clamped, the second cylinder 11 drives the first connecting plate 12 to move downwards, the first connecting plate 12 drives the second connecting plate 14 to move downwards, the second connecting plate 14 drives the rotary motor 15 to move downwards, the rotary motor 15 drives the finger cylinder 17 to move downwards via the third connecting plate 16, the finger cylinder 17 drives the two first clamping plates 18 to move downwards between the two limiting plates 3, and the finger cylinder 17 controls the two first clamping plates 18 to work and clamp the stem of Atractylodes lancea. In order to prevent the stem of Atractylodes lancea from falling off due to lack of clamping, anti-slip teeth 19 are provided on the first clamping plates 18 for reinforcement. After the stem of Atractylodes lancea is clamped, it is cut. The component works by cutting and separating the stem and root of Atractylodes lancea. After separation, the second cylinder 11 resets, while the finger cylinder 17 does not reset, causing the two first clamping plates 18 to move the stem of Atractylodes lancea out of the space between the two limiting plates 3. The rotary motor 15 drives the third connecting plate 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the finger cylinder 17 to rotate. The finger cylinder 17 then drives the two first clamping plates 18 to rotate, causing the stem of Atractylodes lancea to detach from the top of the conveyor 2. At this point, the finger cylinder 17 resets, and the rotary motor 15 resets, causing the stem of Atractylodes lancea to fall to the side of the conveyor 2 in an inclined state for collection, facilitating centralized processing later.
[0050] As an optional embodiment, the cutting component includes:
[0051] The third cylinder 20 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 6;
[0052] The fourth connecting plate 21 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 6, and the center of the fourth connecting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod of the third cylinder 20.
[0053] The cutter 22 is fixed on the side of the fourth connecting plate 21 away from the third cylinder 20, and the cutting head of the cutter 22 is located on the top of the limiting plate 3.
[0054] As an optional embodiment, the clamping assembly includes:
[0055] Two second clamping plates 23 are respectively attached to one side of the two limiting plates 3 on the side that are close to each other, and the other side is slidably connected to one side of the cutter 22.
[0056] Two second guide rods 24 are both inserted through the fourth connecting plate 21, and one end of each second guide rod 24 is fixedly connected to one end of the second clamping plate 23.
[0057] Two springs 25 are respectively sleeved on the second guide rod 24, and the two ends of each spring 25 abut against the fourth connecting plate 21 and the second clamping plate 23 respectively.
[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, when the root of Atractylodes lancea moves to abut against baffle 9, conveyor 2 stops working. The third cylinder 20 drives the fourth connecting plate 21 downwards. The fourth connecting plate 21, via spring 25, drives the second clamping plate 23 downwards into the space between the two limiting plates 3, and it fits snugly onto the conveyor belt of 2. At this time, the stem of Atractylodes lancea is located between the two second clamping plates 23. The third cylinder 20 stops moving downwards and, via screw slide 5, drives mounting plate 6 to move. Mounting plate 6 then drives the fourth connecting plate 21 to move. The fourth connecting plate 21 drives the second clamping plate 23 to move via the second guide rod 24. The two second clamping plates 23 move to contact one end of the root of Atractylodes lancea. The screw slide 5 continues to move, so that the second clamping plates 23 cooperate with the baffle 9 to clamp the root of Atractylodes lancea. After the stem of Atractylodes lancea is clamped, the third cylinder 20 continues to move down, and drives the cutter 22 to move down via the fourth connecting plate 21, so that the cutter 22 cuts and separates the stem and root of Atractylodes lancea, thus completing the separation of the stem and root of Atractylodes lancea.
[0059] The working principle is as follows: Atractylodes lancea is placed on conveyor 2, and its roots are moved to the baffle assembly via conveyor 2. At this time, conveyor 2 stops working, and the clamping assembly is moved down onto the conveyor belt by the cutting assembly. The clamping assembly is fitted onto the stem of Atractylodes lancea. The mounting plate 6 is moved by the screw slide 5, and the mounting plate 6 moves the cutting assembly. The cutting assembly moves the clamping assembly, so that the clamping assembly and the baffle assembly clamp the two ends of the Atractylodes lancea root. The waste removal assembly clamps the stem of Atractylodes lancea, and the cutting assembly cuts the stem and root of Atractylodes lancea at the connection point, thereby improving the integrity of the Atractylodes lancea root cut. After the cut is completed, the cutting assembly resets, and the waste removal assembly clamps the stem of Atractylodes lancea out from between the two limit plates 3 and resets. At this time, conveyor 2 continues to work, and the baffle assembly releases the obstruction of conveyor 2. The root of Atractylodes lancea moves to the next process via conveyor 2. This utility model not only improves processing efficiency but also has high cutting accuracy.
