[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments of the present application. If not specifically indicated, the technical means used in the embodiments are conventional means familiar to those skilled in the art.
[0018] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0019] As Figures 1-4As shown, a device for treating waste residue from traditional Chinese medicine includes a first crushing device, a first screening device 5, a fermentation and drying device 7, a second crushing device, and a second screening device. The first screening device 5 has a first crushing device at its top, and its output end is connected to the fermentation and drying device 7. The fermentation and drying device 7 has a second screening device at its output end, which is connected to the second crushing device. The waste residue is fed into the first crushing device via a first conveyor belt 1 for shearing. The treated waste residue falls into the first screening device 5. Oversized residue falls into the second conveyor belt 4 at the end of the first screening device 5 and is then transported back to the first conveyor belt 1 via the second conveyor belt 4. Residue of the correct size falls from the first screening device 5 into the third conveyor belt 6 at its bottom and is then transported to the fermentation and drying device 7 for fermentation and drying. The waste residue after processing by the fermentation and drying device 7 is transported to the first screening structure 9 via a fourth conveyor belt 8. Residue of the correct size falls from the first screening structure 9 into the lower... The second screening structure 11 is square. Waste that is too large falls from the end of the first screening structure 9 into the fifth conveyor belt 10, and is then transported by the fifth conveyor belt 10 to the second screening device for crushing. The crushed waste falls from the second screening device into the first screening structure 9 below. Waste that falls from the first screening structure 9 into the second screening structure 11 below is of the correct size and falls from the end of the second screening structure 11 into the sixth conveyor belt 12, and is then transported by the sixth conveyor belt 12 to the packaging area for packaging. Waste that is too small falls from the second screening structure 11 into the waste collection point below (not shown in the figure).
[0020] It should be noted that both the first crushing device and the second crushing device adopt a structure of two rollers 3 and crushing teeth 301. The crushing teeth 301 on the two rollers 3 mesh with each other to grind the waste residue. An arc-shaped chute is provided between the first conveyor belt 1 and the first crushing device, and between the fifth conveyor belt 10 and the second crushing device, so that the waste residue can fall into the meshing position better. The first screening device 5, the first screening structure 9, and the second screening structure 11 are all plate-shaped structures with holes of different mesh sizes. All three are inclined, with their lower ends rotatably mounted at one end of the corresponding second conveyor belt 4, fifth conveyor belt 10, and sixth conveyor belt 12. A vibrating motor 15 is connected to the bottom center of the higher end of each structure. Vibrating springs 13 are located at both ends of the vibrating motor 15, which is mounted on a support plate 14. When the vibrating motor 15 operates, it drives the connected first screening device 5, first screening structure 9, and second screening structure 11 to vibrate. Waste residue larger than the set holes on the first screening device 5, first screening structure 9, and second screening structure 11 will gradually slide down to the corresponding lower conveyor belt due to vibration, while waste residue smaller than the set holes will fall through the holes. The first screening structure 9 and the second screening structure 11 work together to screen out uniformly sized processed waste residue for packaging. A material stacking area is provided between the third conveyor belt 6 and the fermentation drying device 7. A valve is provided at the bottom of the material stacking area. The output end of the material stacking area is connected to the inlet 701. The valve is electrically connected to the control unit. When the fermentation drying device 7 needs filling, it is filled by controlling the valve. There can be multiple fermentation drying devices 7. In this example, only one is shown. The various components in the device are fixed by external fixing frames, which are not shown in the figure.
[0021] like Figures 3-4As shown, the fermentation and drying device 7 includes an outer shell 703, within which an inner shell 704 is fixedly installed. A certain gap exists between the outer shell 703 and the inner shell 704. Heating elements are installed within the inner shell 704, positioned near the bottom. These heating elements can be multiple ceramic heaters evenly and vertically arranged around an axis. The inner shell 704 is made of a material with good thermal conductivity, such as copper. The heating elements heat the interior of the inner shell 704. The heating elements are electrically connected to a control unit, which controls their operation. During fermentation, the device provides a suitable temperature to create a suitable fermentation environment, while simultaneously providing a high-temperature drying environment during the drying process. A feed inlet is provided through the top of the outer shell 703. 701 and 702 are connected to the interior of the inner shell 704, and both can be switched by the control unit. A feed pipe is provided through the side wall of the outer shell 703. The feed pipe is used to introduce gas and water suitable for fermentation. A detection device is provided inside the inner shell 704. A stirring device is rotatably provided inside the inner shell 704. A control structure 710 for controlling the outflow of internal materials is provided at the bottom of the inner shell 704. A discharge pipe 711 is provided at the bottom of the outer shell 703. The discharge pipe 711 is a three-way pipe with two solenoid valves. The horizontal section is used for the discharge of internal water, and the vertical section is used for the discharge of processed waste residue. A solenoid valve connected to the control unit is provided in both the horizontal and vertical sections. The feed pipeline includes a water inlet pipe 705, a first air inlet pipe 706, and a second air inlet pipe 707. The water inlet pipe 705 and the first air inlet pipe 706 connect to the interior of the inner shell 704, and the second air inlet pipe 707 connects to the interior of the outer shell 703. The detection device includes a temperature detection device 713, an air pressure detection device 712, and a humidity monitoring device 714. A first solenoid valve 7051 is installed on the water inlet pipe 705, a second solenoid valve 7061 is installed on the first air inlet pipe 706, a third solenoid valve 7071 is installed on the second air inlet pipe 707, and a fourth solenoid valve 7021 is installed on the air outlet pipe 702. The air pressure detection device 712 is electrically connected to the first solenoid valve 7051. The second solenoid valve 7061 and the fourth solenoid valve 7021, and the humidity monitoring device 714 are electrically connected to the first solenoid valve 7051. The detection device and each solenoid valve are electrically connected to the control unit. The gas pressure detection device 712 is located at a higher position and does not directly contact the fermenting material; it is used to detect the upper gas pressure to prevent excessive / insignificant gas pressure inside the inner shell 704 from affecting fermentation. The temperature detection device 713 and the humidity monitoring device 714 are located at a lower position and directly contact the fermenting material to directly monitor its temperature and humidity. The control unit controls the opening and closing of each solenoid valve through signals fed back from the detection devices to supplement gas, moisture, or heat. The inner shell 704 includes a base plate 7101. The control structure 710 includes the base plate 7101 and a baffle. The baffle is connected to a motor located at the bottom via transmission gears. The motor is electrically connected to the control unit. Multiple sets of flow ports 7102 are evenly arranged around the axis on the top of the base plate 7101. The arrangement of the flow ports 7102 is as follows: Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the base plate 7101 is rotatably equipped with a baffle. The baffle includes multiple baffle plates 7103 that are fixed around the axis and adapted to the flow port 7102. During fermentation, the baffle completely covers the flow port 7102 to prevent the internal fermented material from flowing out. After fermentation, by slightly rotating the baffle, excess water inside can flow out through the flow port 7102, but the fermented waste residue will not flow out. When drying is carried out after fermentation, hot air is introduced through the second air inlet pipe 707. The hot air enters through the gap between the outer shell 703 and the inner shell 704, and then enters the inner shell 704 through the flow port 7102. The gas rises from the lower part of the inner shell 704, carrying away the moisture in the waste residue, and then the gas is discharged from the air outlet pipe 702. After drying, the baffle rotates, so that the baffle 7103 no longer blocks the flow port 7102, and the waste residue flows out through the flow port 7102. Since the size of the waste residue has been screened in the previous process, the size of the waste residue will be guaranteed to be within a certain range. Therefore, the flow port 7102 only needs to be set with an appropriate size to allow it to pass through. The stirring device includes a rotating rod 708 and blades 709. The rotating rod 708 is rotatably inserted through the top of the inner shell 704, and multiple blades 709 are evenly arranged along the length of the rotating rod 708. During fermentation and heating, the stirring device can promote both processes. At the same time, the bottom blades 709 are fitted with the bottom plate 7101 with a clearance. When the waste residue is discharged, the blades 709 can also drive the waste residue at the bottom to move, preventing it from getting stuck in the flow port 7102 or accumulating at the bottom. During operation, fermentation is carried out first, followed by drying. Initially, waste residue and fermentation bacteria enter the inner shell 704 through the feed inlet 701. Then, the feed inlet 701 is closed. The control unit controls the initial water and air intake through the water inlet pipe 705 and the first air inlet pipe 706 to ensure that the inner shell 704 has suitable fermentation material (waste residue), water, air, and temperature. During fermentation, the control unit appropriately supplements or discharges water and air based on data feedback from the detection device (through the first air inlet pipe 706, control structure 710, and water inlet pipe 705). After a predetermined time, the internal moisture is discharged through the control structure 710, and then hot air is introduced through the second air inlet pipe 707. At the same time, the internal waste residue is heated by the heating element. The hot air rises from the bottom through the flow port 7102 and carries away the internal moisture when it comes into contact with the waste residue. When the humidity monitoring device 714 detects that the humidity inside the waste residue is qualified, the internal waste residue is discharged through the control structure.
