Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine preparation processing, and in particular to a novel percolator for processing traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine preparations are any form of medicine that must be formulated for medical or preventative use before it can be used clinically. These are called dosage forms, such as tablets, injections, aerosols, pills, powders, and ointments. Dosage form is a collective term, generally referring to the category of preparations. Pharmaceutical preparations require the extraction of medicinal materials, usually through percolation, which uses a solvent to dissolve the active ingredients.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN211752648U discloses a novel percolator for processing traditional Chinese medicine preparations, including a base on which a percolator cylinder is fixedly installed. The percolator cylinder has an installation groove and a through groove. A guide rail is fixedly installed inside the percolator cylinder, and a filter screen is slidably installed inside the guide rail. A sealing plate is fixedly installed on the filter screen, and a connecting block is fixedly installed on the sealing plate. During the processing of traditional Chinese medicine preparations, they usually contain a large amount of sediment. Therefore, when percolating the traditional Chinese medicine preparations, these sediments tend to accumulate on the upper surface of the percolator plate, preventing the medicine solution above from percolating through the sediment. To address this problem, we propose a novel percolator for processing traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel percolator for processing traditional Chinese medicine preparations, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0009] In a further embodiment, the leak-proof component includes two grooves, which are located on the bottom surface of the top barrel and the upper surface of the bottom barrel, respectively, and a sealing gasket is placed inside each of the two grooves.
[0010] In a further embodiment, the inner wall of the support frame has two sliding grooves, and the outer surface of the top barrel is connected to two sliders, each of the sliding grooves being adapted to the slider.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This utility model discloses a novel percolator for processing traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Through the percolation plate installed in the device, the traditional Chinese medicine preparations in the top tank can be percolated and filtered. During the percolation and filtration process, the driving component can drive the connecting rod and the rotating plate to rotate, and the bottom surface of the rotating plate contacts the percolation plate, thereby stirring the precipitate above the percolation plate and dispersing it in the traditional Chinese medicine liquid. Therefore, it can prevent the precipitate from accumulating above the percolation plate, which would prevent the medicine from passing through the precipitate for percolation.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4In this utility model, a novel percolator for processing traditional Chinese medicine preparations includes a support plate 1, a bottom tank 2 mounted on the upper surface of the support plate 1, a lifting assembly 5 mounted on the upper surface of the support plate 1, a top tank 7 connected inside the lifting assembly 5, leak-proof components 18 mounted on the bottom surface of the top tank 7 and the upper surface of the bottom tank 2, a bearing 21 embedded in the upper surface of the top tank 7, a connecting rod 10 connected to the inner ring of the bearing 21, a drive assembly 6 mounted at the top of the connecting rod 10, and a rotating plate 11 mounted at the bottom of the connecting rod 10. The inner surface of the top tank 7... The part is equipped with a percolation plate 12, and the bottom surface of the rotating plate 11 is in contact with the upper surface of the percolation plate 12. By rotating the plate 11 and contacting the upper surface of the percolation plate 12, the precipitate above the percolation plate 12 can be stirred and dispersed in the Chinese medicine liquid. The percolation plate 12 plays a crucial role in the processing of Chinese medicine preparations. It is mainly used to filter and separate impurities such as solid particles, fibers, and plant residues in the Chinese medicine liquid, ensuring the purity of the Chinese medicine liquid and thus improving the quality and safety of Chinese medicine preparations.
[0023] The lifting assembly 5 includes a support frame 17. Two electric push rods 9 are mounted on the upper surface of the support frame 17. The output ends of the two electric push rods 9 are connected to the upper surface of the top tank 7. The electric push rods 9 can drive the top tank 7 to rise, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the percolation plate 12 inside the top tank 7. The specific model of the electric push rods 9 should be based on actual use. Two sliding grooves 16 are opened on the inner wall of the support frame 17. Two sliders 15 are connected to the outer surface of the top tank 7. Each sliding groove 16 is adapted to the slider 15. Through the cooperation of the sliding grooves 16 and the sliders 15, the lifting of the top tank 7 can be made more stable.
[0024] The drive assembly 6 includes a drive motor 14, and a mounting bracket 13 is mounted on the outer surface of the drive motor 14. The bottom end of the mounting bracket 13 is connected to the upper surface of the top tank 7. The drive motor 14 can drive the connecting rod 10 to rotate, thereby enabling the rotating plate 11 to rotate on the upper surface of the percolation plate 12.
[0025] The leak-proof component 18 includes two grooves 19, which are located on the bottom surface of the top tank 7 and the upper surface of the bottom tank 2, respectively. A sealing gasket 20 is placed inside each of the two grooves 19. Through the contact between the two sealing gaskets 20, the gap between the top tank 7 and the bottom tank 2 can be filled to prevent the liquid from flowing out during the percolation process.
[0026] A control panel 8 is installed on the front of the bottom tank 2. The control panel 8 is electrically connected to the device via wires for easy control of the device. A drain valve 3 is installed on the bottom surface of the bottom tank 2 to facilitate the discharge of the medicine in the bottom tank 2. An injection cylinder 22 is installed on the upper surface of the top tank 7. Multiple support legs 4 are installed on the bottom surface of the support plate 1 to support the device and ensure its stability.
[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0028] This novel percolator for processing traditional Chinese medicine preparations is used by first having the operator pour the traditional Chinese medicine to be percolated into the top tank 7 through the injection cylinder 22, allowing the medicine to be percolated by the percolation plate 12. Then, the drive assembly 6 is activated, which, with the cooperation of the connecting rod 10, drives the rotating plate 11 to rotate. After percolation is completed, the liquid in the bottom tank 2 is discharged and collected through the drain valve 3. Finally, the top tank 7 is lifted by the lifting assembly 5, and the operator disassembles the percolation plate 12 by tightening several bolts under the percolation plate 12 and cleans the percolation plate 12.
