[0025] To better understand this utility model, the following embodiments further illustrate its content, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the embodiments described below. Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a more thorough understanding of this utility model. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model can be practiced without one or more of these details.
[0026] In this embodiment, see Figure 1-5 The pre-treatment device for cleaning Sophora flavescens roots before processing includes a fixed plate 1, a support 2, and a rotating mechanism 10. The rotating mechanism 10 includes a connecting rod 101 rotatably mounted on the outside of the support 2. A coarse washing tank 102 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting rod 101. A first gear 103 is provided on the outside of the coarse washing tank 102. A top plate 104 is provided on the outside of the support 2. A motor 105 is provided on the outside of the top plate 104. A support rod 106 is fixedly connected to the motor 105 through a coupling. A second gear 107 is provided on the outside of the support rod 106. The rotating mechanism 10 can drive the Sophora flavescens roots inside the coarse washing tank 102 to rotate, so that the Sophora flavescens roots will not accumulate during the coarse washing process, thus improving the cleaning efficiency of the Sophora flavescens roots. An electric push rod 108 is provided on the outside of the coarse washing tank 102. A baffle 109 is connected to the outside of the electric push rod 108. The two baffles 109 move in opposite directions during the movement.
[0027] It should be noted that the electric push rod 108 is connected to the controller, which can control the movement of the electric push rod 108, so that the electric push rod 108 can drive the baffle 109 to move left and right. The motor 105 operates in a periodic motion, with counterclockwise and clockwise rotations alternating in a cycle. This prevents the Sophora flavescens roots inside the coarse washing tank 102 from rotating in one direction, thus facilitating a more refined cleaning of the Sophora flavescens roots.
[0028] Technical effect: By setting up the motor 105, the first gear 103 and the second gear 107, the coarse washing tank 102 can rotate during the washing of the Sophora flavescens root inside, which facilitates the movement of the Sophora flavescens root in the coarse washing tank 102, improves the washing efficiency, and makes the washing of Sophora flavescens root more efficient.
[0029] Optionally, see Figure 1 The bracket 2 is fixedly installed on the outside of the fixed plate 1. The outside of the fixed plate 1 is provided with an electric slide rail 3. The outside of the electric slide rail 3 is slidably connected with a slider 4. The outside of the slider 4 is provided with a cleaning box 5. The inside of the cleaning box 5 is provided with a drainage hole 6. The outside of the fixed plate 1 is provided with a mounting bracket 7. The outside of the mounting bracket 7 is provided with a fine washing nozzle 8. The outside of the fixed plate 1 is provided with a drying box 9. Thus, the electric slide rail 3 can drive the cleaning box 5 to move left and right, so that the cleaning box 5 can move the Sophora flavescens root for fine washing and drying.
[0030] It should be added that the electric slide rail 3 can move the washing box 5 left and right, so that the washing box 5 can be thoroughly washed and dried on both sides, improving the efficiency of cleaning Sophora flavescens roots.
[0031] Technical benefits: The electric slide rail 3 and slider 4 can move the cleaning box 5 and clean and dry the Sophora flavescens roots inside the cleaning box 5. At the same time, there is no need to manually transfer the Sophora flavescens roots to the drying box 9 during the drying process. The operation is simple and brings great convenience to the workers.
[0032] Optionally, the drying chamber 9 includes heating plates 91, which are distributed on the top and left and right sides of the drying chamber 9. The purpose of the heating plates 91 is to enable the temperature inside the drying chamber 9 to quickly reach the temperature required for drying, thereby maintaining heat inside the drying chamber 9 and improving the drying efficiency of the drying chamber 9.
[0033] Optionally, the coarse washing tank 102 includes a support rod 1021 fixedly installed on the inner top wall, and a coarse washing nozzle 1022 fixedly installed on the outside of the support rod 1021. The top of the coarse washing tank 102 is provided with a feeding hole 1023 that communicates with the inner cavity. The purpose is to enable the coarse washing nozzle 1022 to coarsely wash the Sophora flavescens roots inside the coarse washing tank 102.
[0034] In addition, the coarse washing nozzle 1022 is connected to an external water pipe. During the rotation of the coarse washing tank 102, the external water pipe will not become tangled, which further facilitates the coarse washing of Sophora flavescens roots.
[0035] Optionally, the size of the first gear 103 is matched with the size of the second gear 107, and the outer surface of the first gear 103 meshes with the outer surface of the second gear 107, so that the second gear 107 can drive the first gear 103 to rotate, which in turn facilitates the rotation of the Sophora flavescens root inside the coarse washing box 102, thereby improving the efficiency of coarse washing.
[0036] Optionally, multiple drainage holes 6 are provided, and the multiple drainage holes 6 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the washing box 5. The purpose is to allow the water stored inside the washing box 5 to leak out through the drainage holes 6 during the fine washing process, thereby reducing the time required for drying the Sophora flavescens root after washing and improving the efficiency of Sophora flavescens root washing.
[0037] Optionally, a connecting plate is provided on the outside of the coarse washing tank 102, and the electric push rod 108 is fixed to the coarse washing tank 102 through the connecting plate, which serves to fix the electric push rod 108 and make the electric push rod 108 more stable during use.
[0038] Optionally, there are two electric push rods 108 and two baffles 109. The bottom of the coarse washing tank 102 is provided with a discharge hole that communicates with the inner cavity. The size of the two baffles 109 is matched with the size of the discharge hole, so as to block the Sophora flavescens root inside the coarse washing tank 102, so that the Sophora flavescens root can be discharged from the coarse washing tank 102 after washing. This can be done without manual operation, which is simple and quick.
[0039] Furthermore, the fine washing nozzle 8 is located above the cleaning box 5. This is to facilitate the fine washing nozzle 8 to clean the Sophora flavescens root inside the cleaning box 5 from above, and also to facilitate the drainage of the fine washing water through the drain hole 6.
[0040] Furthermore, there are two drying boxes 9, both of which are boxes with through-ends. The two ends of the electric slide rail 3 extend to the outside of the two drying boxes 9 respectively. The purpose is to allow the dried Sophora flavescens roots to be moved out of the inside of the drying box 9, making it easier for workers to collect the dried Sophora flavescens roots and improving work efficiency.
[0041] Working principle: When it is necessary to clean and dry the Sophora flavescens roots, the roots are first fed into the coarse washing tank 102 through the feeding hole 1023. Then, the motor 105 is started, causing the support rod 106 to rotate. The support rod 106 drives the second gear 107 to rotate periodically. The second gear 107 drives the first gear 103 to rotate, which in turn drives the coarse washing tank 102 to rotate. The coarse washing tank 102 causes the Sophora flavescens roots inside to rotate, causing the coarse washing nozzles 1022 to spray water to coarsely wash the roots. After the coarse washing is completed, the two electric push rods 108 are activated. Simultaneously, the electric push rod 108 moves the two baffles 109 to opposite sides, causing the coarsely washed Sophora flavescens roots to fall from the coarse washing box 102 into the washing box 5. When the amount of Sophora flavescens roots that have fallen in reaches the standard, the electric push rod 108 will drive the baffles 109 to block the discharge hole, causing the fine washing nozzle 8 to spray water to finely wash the Sophora flavescens roots inside the washing box 5. The water generated from the fine washing will flow out from the drain hole 6. Then, the electric slide rail 3 will drive the slider 4 to move, causing the slider 4 to move the washing box 5, which will then move the washing box 5 into the drying box 9 to dry the Sophora flavescens roots, thus completing the washing and drying of the Sophora flavescens roots.
