However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0024] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0025] Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a filling machine for oral liquids of traditional Chinese medicine, comprising,

[0027] The feeding assembly 100 includes a bracket 101, a conveyor belt 102 fixedly connected to the middle position of the bracket 101, and a storage bin 103 adapted to be installed on the upper end of the conveyor belt 102. The conveyor belt 102 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the lower end of the storage bin 103.

[0028] The filling assembly 200 includes a lifting cylinder 201 fixedly connected to the side wall of the support 101, a cover plate 202 fixedly connected to the end of the lifting cylinder 201, a liquid supply pipe 203 sealed and installed in the center of the cover plate 202, and a hopper 204 fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the support 101. The side wall of the cover plate 202 is provided with a gasket structure that cooperates with the storage tank 103. The bottom outlet of the hopper 204 is located above the storage tank 103.

[0029] The bracket 101 provides a mounting base for other components. The conveyor belt 102 transports the storage tank 103, containing the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine, to a designated location for subsequent filling operations. The storage tank 103 stores the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine to be filled. The lifting cylinder 201 drives the cover plate 202 to move vertically. When the cover plate 202 descends to contact the storage tank 103, the gasket structure provides a seal, preventing leakage of the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine during the filling process and ensuring the accuracy and hygiene of the filling. The hopper 204 stores large quantities of oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine or stores medicinal granules that need to be soaked, adapting to different filling needs and providing a continuous supply of materials for the filling process. The bottom outlet design allows the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine to flow smoothly into the storage tank 103 under gravity, improving filling efficiency.

[0030] Specifically, the filling assembly 200 also includes a guide rod 205 inserted into the side wall of the bracket 101, and a frame 206 fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide rod 205, with the cover plate 202 inserted into the center of the frame 206.

[0031] The guide rod 205 serves to guide the movement of the frame 206, enabling the frame 206 to move smoothly up and down in the vertical direction, limiting the position of the cover plate 202, improving the docking accuracy between the cover plate 202 and the storage hopper 103, and ensuring the stability and accuracy of the filling assembly operation.

[0032] Furthermore, the bottom side wall of the frame 206 is provided with a side strip structure that works in conjunction with the upper side wall of the storage hopper 103, and the bottom side strip of the frame 206 is provided with a sloping structure.

[0033] When the frame 206 descends, the side strip structure can fit tightly with the upper side wall of the storage tank 103, further enhancing the sealing effect. At the same time, the inclined structure facilitates the docking of the frame 206 and the storage tank 103, reducing the difficulty of operation.

[0034] Furthermore, the filling assembly 200 also includes a baffle 207 that is sealed and inserted into the bottom of the hopper 204, and the baffle 207 is slidably connected to the side wall of the bracket 101.

[0035] The baffle 207 is used to control the opening and closing of the discharge port at the bottom of the hopper 204, thereby controlling the feeding time and amount of the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine and ensuring the accuracy of the filling process.

[0036] Preferably, the filling assembly 200 also includes a pusher cylinder 208 fixedly connected to the side wall of the bracket 101, and the output shaft end of the pusher cylinder 208 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the baffle 207.

[0037] Among them, the pusher cylinder 208 controls the extension and retraction of the piston rod, which drives the baffle 207 to slide on the side wall of the bracket 101, thereby realizing the opening and closing control of the bottom discharge port of the hopper 204. It is simple to operate and has high control precision.

[0038] It should be noted that the filling assembly 200 also includes a top material cylinder 209 fixedly connected to the middle position of the lower end of the bracket 101, and a top plate 210 fixedly connected to the output end of the top material cylinder 209. The end of the top plate 210 extends to the bottom of the storage tank 103. The top plate 210 is located at the center of the conveyor belt 102, and the bottom diameter of the storage tank 103 is larger than the width of the conveyor belt 102. There are two sets of top material cylinders 209. One set of top material cylinders 209 is installed below the liquid supply pipe 203, and the other set of top material cylinders 209 is installed below the hopper 204.

[0039] The top cylinder 209 lifts the top plate 210 upwards, which can lift the storage tank 103 upwards so that it can better connect with the filling component 200. It also makes it easier to unload the storage tank 103 from the conveyor belt 102 after filling, thus improving work efficiency.

[0040] In use, the storage tank 103 containing the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine is placed on the conveyor belt 102. The conveyor belt 102 starts, transporting the storage tank 103 to the designated position below the filling component 200. The lifting cylinder 201 is activated, causing the cover plate 202 and the connected liquid supply pipe 203 to descend, while the guide rod 205 guides the frame 206 to descend synchronously. The side strip structure at the bottom of the frame 206 matches the upper side wall of the storage tank 103, and due to the beveled structure of the side strip, it is easy to quickly and accurately connect. At this time, the gasket structure on the side wall of the cover plate 202 fits tightly with the storage tank 103, forming a seal. At the same time, the pushing cylinder 208 drives the baffle 207 to slide, opening the bottom outlet of the hopper 204, and the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine flows from the liquid supply equipment into the liquid supply pipe 203, and then is added into the storage tank 103, realizing the filling operation. During the filling process, the top cylinder 209 is activated, which lifts the top plate 210 upward. The top plate 210 then lifts the storage tank 103 upward, making the connection between the storage tank 103 and the filling assembly tighter and preventing leakage and other problems during the filling process.

[0041] At the end of the filling stage, once the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine in the storage tank 103 reaches the predetermined filling volume, the pusher cylinder 208 drives the baffle 207 to slide, closing the bottom outlet of the hopper 204 and stopping the feeding. Then, the lifting cylinder 201 drives the cover plate 202 and the liquid supply pipe 203 to rise, and the frame 206 also rises, separating from the storage tank 103. Next, the top cylinder 209 drives the top plate 210 to descend, and the storage tank 103 falls back onto the conveyor belt 102, which transports the filled storage tank 103 to the next process.

[0042] In summary, by controlling the opening and closing of the baffle 207 through the pusher cylinder 208, the feeding time and amount of the hopper 204 can be precisely controlled, thereby improving filling accuracy and ensuring consistent filling volume of the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine in each storage bin 103. The gasket structure on the side wall of the cover plate 202 and the edge strip structure at the bottom of the frame 206 that mates with the storage bin 103 effectively prevent leakage of the oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine during the filling process, ensuring hygiene and accuracy, while also reducing material waste. The conveyor belt 102 enables automatic conveying of the storage bins 103. The combined use of the top cylinder 209 and the lifting cylinder 201 makes the docking and separation of the storage bins 103 with the filling components more efficient, reducing manual operation and greatly improving the overall working efficiency of the filling machine.
