[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a Chinese herbal medicine cutting machine includes: a frame 100, a gearbox 200, a conveying system 300, a cutting system 400, an adjusting handwheel 500, a material table 600, a water spraying system 700, and a discharge structure 800. The gearbox 200 and the material table 600 are respectively fixed to the end and the front end of the frame 100. The conveying system 300 is connected to the material table 600. The cutting system 400 is connected to the gearbox 200 and is located between the gearbox 200 and the material table 600. The adjusting handwheel 500 is connected to the gearbox 200. The water spraying system 700 is located above the cutting system 400. The discharge structure 800 is connected to the cutting system 400.
[0026] The water spray system 700 includes: a front water spray pipe 710, a rear water spray pipe 720, a control valve 730, a Y-type filter 740, and a fixed bracket 750. The front water spray pipe 710 and the rear water spray pipe 720 are equipped with the control valve 730. The outlet of the front water spray pipe 710 is equipped with a fan-shaped nozzle, and the outlet of the rear water spray pipe 720 is equipped with an atomizing nozzle. The front water spray pipe 710 and the rear water spray pipe 720 are respectively connected to the Y-type filter 740, and the Y-type filter 740 is connected to the water valve. The fixed bracket 750 is equipped with the front water spray pipe 710 and the rear water spray pipe 720, and the fixed bracket 750 is connected to the frame 100.
[0027] The conveying system 300 includes a lower conveying chain 310, an upper conveying chain 320, and a conveying motor 330. The lower conveying chain 310 and the upper conveying chain 320 are connected to the conveying motor 330. The lower conveying chain 310 is located on the material table 600, and the upper conveying chain 320 is connected to the cutting system 400.
[0028] The cutting system 400 includes: a disc cutter 410, a cutter motor 420, a water collection tank 430, and a drain pipe 440. The disc cutter 410 is connected to the gearbox 200, the cutter motor 420 is connected to the gearbox 200, the water collection tank 430 is located below the disc cutter 410, one end of the drain pipe 440 is connected to the water collection tank 430, and the other end of the drain pipe 440 is connected to the drainage ditch.
[0029] The discharge structure 800 includes a safety cover 810 and a discharge port 820. The discharge port 820 is provided at the bottom of one side of the safety cover 810, and the safety cover 810 is located above the cutting system 400.
[0030] The method of using this utility model is as follows: The medicinal herbs are placed on the material platform 600. Then, the lower conveyor chain 310 transfers the herbs from the material platform 600 to the upper conveyor chain 320. The upper conveyor chain 320 then transports the herbs to the cutting system 400. The cutting system 400 uses a disc-type cutter 410 to cut the herbs. After cutting, the herbs fall into a basket from the discharge port 820. The handwheel 500 can be adjusted to control the gearbox 200, which in turn adjusts the cutter motor 420, thereby adjusting the rotational speed of the disc-type cutter 410.
[0031] The innovation of this invention lies in the addition of a water spray system 700 to the aforementioned functions. Firstly, the front water spray pipe 710 employs a fan-shaped nozzle to increase water pressure and spray area, aiming to clean away any remaining medicinal herb fragments adhering to the disc cutter 410. Because medicinal herbs are very hard, a disc cutter 410 is used. The disc cutter 410 has a very large surface area, and the medicinal herbs produce sap after cutting, making residue very easy to accumulate. Therefore, the front water spray pipe 710 effectively rinses and cleans the disc cutter 410.
[0032] On the other hand, the rear water spray pipe 720 uses an atomizing nozzle to maximize the spray area, covering the entire back of the disc cutter 410. This increased coverage improves overall cooling and prevents overheating of the disc cutter 410 when cutting hard medicinal herbs. The water spray system 700 is also equipped with a control valve 730 to regulate water flow and a Y-type filter 740 to remove impurities that could affect the quality of the medicinal herbs. The mounting bracket 750 secures the slender pipe.
[0033] Compared with traditional technology, this utility model addresses the problem of medicinal herbs sticking to the cutting blade during the cutting process by adding a water spray system to clean the cutting blade.
[0034] The specific embodiments of this utility model have been described above, but this utility model is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made to this utility model as long as they do not depart from its spirit.
