Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece production technology, and in particular to a pretreatment dust removal device for traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece production. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of Chinese herbal medicine slices, pretreatment dust removal is a crucial step. However, traditional methods of dust removal in the pretreatment of Chinese herbal medicine slices often involve manual cleaning, which is extremely inefficient and cannot meet the needs of large-scale production. Furthermore, the cleaning effect is greatly affected by human factors, making it difficult to guarantee the uniformity and thoroughness of the cleaning. Traditional mechanical dust removal equipment has a relatively simple structure, with only a single stirring blade in the processing box. This is insufficient for stirring and cleaning the Chinese herbal medicine slices and cannot achieve all-round dust removal. At the same time, these devices are prone to damaging the Chinese herbal medicine slices during the processing because their stirring parts are often in direct contact with the slices without protective measures. Therefore, we have introduced a pretreatment dust removal device for the production of Chinese herbal medicine slices. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a pretreatment dust removal device for the production of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A pretreatment dust removal device for the production of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces includes a treatment box. A mounting plate is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer surface of the treatment box. A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the left inner wall of the mounting plate. A control mechanism is inserted and installed at the lower end of the fixing plate. Three fixing blocks are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the outer surface of the treatment box, each with a through-hole at its upper end. A feed pipe is inserted and fixedly connected to the upper right side of the treatment box, with a feed hopper fixedly connected to its upper end. A discharge pipe is inserted and fixedly connected to the lower right side of the treatment box. Switch valves are movably installed on the outer surfaces of both the feed pipe and the discharge pipe. A rubber inner liner is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the treatment box.
[0006] The control mechanism includes a rotary motor and a driven wheel. The output end of the rotary motor is fixedly mounted with a driving wheel. The outer surfaces of the driving wheel and the driven wheel are connected by a transmission belt. The lower end of the driven wheel is fixedly connected with a stirring assembly. The lower end of the rotary motor is fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the mounting plate. The upper end of the rotary motor is fixedly connected to the lower end of the fixed plate, and the output end of the rotary motor passes through the lower end of the fixed plate and extends to the upper end of the fixed plate.
[0007] Preferably, the upper ends of both the driving wheel and the driven wheel are movably connected to the upper inner wall of the mounting plate via a rotating shaft.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, a stable support point is provided for the driving wheel and the driven wheel through the movable connection between the rotating shaft and the upper inner wall of the mounting plate.
[0009] Preferably, the stirring assembly includes a movable rod, a rotating rod is fixedly connected to the lower end of the movable rod, a plurality of horizontal stirring rods are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod, a vertical stirring rod is fixedly connected to the end of each of the plurality of horizontal stirring rods away from the center of the rotating rod, a rubber sleeve is fixedly fitted to the outer surface of the plurality of horizontal stirring rods and the outer surface of the plurality of vertical stirring rods, and the upper end of the movable rod is fixedly connected to the lower end of the driven wheel.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution: during equipment operation, the horizontal stirring rod, along with the rotation of the rotating rod, horizontally stirs the Chinese herbal medicine slices, causing them to tumble and mix fully in the horizontal direction, effectively breaking up the piled-up slices and ensuring that each slice has the opportunity to fully contact the washing water, thereby washing away the dust attached to the surface. At the same time, the vertical stirring rod, fixedly connected to the end of the horizontal stirring rod away from the center of the rotating rod, further stirs the Chinese herbal medicine slices vertically. During the rotation of the vertical stirring rod, it can penetrate deep into the interior of the pile of Chinese herbal medicine slices, turning the slices at different levels up and down, achieving a comprehensive and three-dimensional stirring effect. Compared with the traditional single-direction stirring method, this greatly improves the uniformity and comprehensiveness of the stirring, making dust removal more thorough.
[0011] Preferably, the lower end of the movable rod is movably connected to the upper end of the processing box via a bearing, and the lower end of the rotating rod is movably connected to the lower inner wall of the processing box via a rotating shaft.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution: the lower end of the movable rod is movably connected to the upper end of the processing box through a bearing, and the lower end of the rotating rod is movably connected to the lower inner wall of the processing box through a rotating shaft. These two connection points provide stable support for the upper and lower ends of the stirring assembly.
[0013] Preferably, the plurality of horizontal stirring rods are arranged in a circular array around the center of the rotating rod, and the plurality of horizontal stirring rods are arranged in pairs, alternating vertically.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the horizontal stirring rods are distributed in a circular array around the center of the rotating rod, which ensures that the Chinese herbal medicine slices in all directions can be stirred when the rotating rod rotates.
[0015] Preferably, there is a gap between each of the vertical stirring rods and the inner wall of the rubber liner.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution: during the operation of the stirring component, the vertical stirring rod rotates continuously. If it is in close contact with the inner wall of the rubber inner liner, frequent friction can easily damage the rubber inner liner.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. In this utility model, the device drives the driving wheel through the rotary motor in the control mechanism, which drives the driven wheel through the transmission belt, thereby driving the stirring assembly to work. The stirring assembly has horizontal stirring rods arranged in a ring array on the outer surface of the rotating rod and interlaced in pairs, as well as vertical stirring rods connected to them. These can stir the Chinese herbal medicine pieces placed in the rubber inner liner of the processing box in all directions, which greatly improves the cleaning efficiency and ensures that dust on all parts of the Chinese herbal medicine pieces can be effectively removed.
[0019] 2. In this utility model, rubber sleeves are fixedly fitted on the outer surfaces of both the horizontal and vertical stirring rods. During the stirring and cleaning process, this can effectively reduce mechanical damage to the Chinese herbal medicine pieces, protect the integrity of the Chinese herbal medicine pieces to the greatest extent, and ensure the quality of the pieces.
