Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of medicinal material washing equipment, and specifically relates to a cleaning equipment for washing impurities from harvested short-stemmed ginseng medicinal materials. Background Technology
[0002] *Gynostemma pentaphyllum* is a plant of the Araliaceae family, and its roots can be used as a medicinal material. It is warm in nature, sweet and slightly bitter in taste, and has the effects of dispelling wind and dampness, relaxing muscles and tendons, and is often used to treat rheumatic pain, traumatic injuries, and other ailments. It mostly grows in mountain forests and is distributed in Yunnan and Guangxi provinces of my country. The main cleaning equipment for *Gynostemma pentaphyllum* after harvesting includes drum-type cleaning machines, which use rotating drums combined with high-pressure water jets to remove surface dirt, sand, and other impurities; and vibratory cleaning machines, which use a vibrating disc to ensure full contact and friction between the medicinal material and water / cleaning medium for efficient cleaning. In addition, spray cleaning equipment uses multiple nozzles to spray water at multiple angles, precisely rinsing the crevices of the medicinal material for dirt. All of these devices can meet the cleaning requirements of *Gynostemma pentaphyllum*, improving cleaning efficiency and cleanliness.
[0003] The announcement number "CN220635469U" describes a Chinese herbal medicine cleaner. Herbs are added to the cleaning tank through the inlet. Under the vibration of a first and second vibration mechanism, the herbs roll sequentially on a left and right inclined plate. A first and second nozzle spray water mist to rinse the herbs. A left and right short brush scrubs the rolling herbs, improving the cleaning effect. The cleaned herbs are collected in a collection box, and the wastewater is discharged into a bottom tank through a first and second drain pipe. The cleaner includes a base, a base column, a cleaning tank, and an inlet. It also includes a first guiding mechanism, a second guiding mechanism, a rinsing mechanism, and a collecting mechanism. The first guiding mechanism is located at the left end of the cleaning tank, and the second guiding mechanism is located at the right end. Two sets of both the first and second guiding mechanisms are provided and staggered. The rinsing mechanism is located on the cleaning tank, and the collecting mechanism is located on the base.
[0004] Although the above-mentioned utility model has a simple overall structure, is easy to operate, and is highly practical, the position and posture of the medicinal materials are constantly changing when they fall and roll on the inclined plate. This makes it difficult for the nozzle of the rinsing mechanism to continuously and evenly rinse the surface of the medicinal materials. Some areas may be over-rinsed, while other parts may not be cleaned sufficiently, resulting in inconsistent cleaning effects. Moreover, during the falling and rolling process, some impurities may be squeezed into the gaps or depressions of the medicinal materials. Since it is difficult to clean these parts in a targeted manner while they are rolling, impurities are easy to remain, affecting the purification quality of the medicinal materials. Utility Model Content
[0005] In response to the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cleaning device for harvesting and washing impurities from short-stemmed ginseng medicinal materials. This device addresses the problem that when medicinal materials fall and roll on an inclined plate, their position and posture constantly change, making it difficult for the nozzles of the rinsing mechanism to continuously and evenly rinse the surface of the medicinal materials. Some areas may be over-rinsed, while other parts may not be sufficiently cleaned, resulting in inconsistent cleaning effects.
[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

The connecting shaft is symmetrically connected to the bottom of the cavity via bearings. A driven gear is fixedly fitted onto the outer side of the connecting shaft. Connecting columns are fixedly connected to the top of the connecting shaft and the top of the drive motor's output end. The top of the connecting column extends into the mounting groove and is fixedly connected to a cross block. The diameter of the drive gear is larger than that of the driven gear, and the drive gear and driven gear mesh with each other. The bottom of the cleaning drum and the first... Slots are provided at the bottom of both the rotating column and the bottom of the second rotating column. A cross groove is provided at the bottom of the slot. The connecting column and the slot are inserted into each other, and the cross block and the cross groove are inserted into each other. This allows the cleaning brush to clean the short-stemmed ginseng from multiple angles and directions. Whether it is the surface, side or recess of the herb, the cleaning brush can reach it, removing impurities from the surface of the herb in all directions without dead angles. Moreover, during the rotation, the cleaning brush continuously rubs against the surface of the herb, which can effectively remove stubborn stains and dirt. Compared with a single cleaning, this continuous cleaning method can significantly improve the cleaning effect, ensure that the short-stemmed ginseng is thoroughly cleaned, and improve the quality of the cleaned herb.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the positioning assembly includes a rotating seat, a threaded hole, a threaded rod, a movable seat, a positioning pin, a first synchronous pulley, a second synchronous pulley, and a synchronous belt.

A first synchronous pulley is rotatably connected to one side of the assembly seat. A second synchronous pulley is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the rotating seat. A synchronous belt is installed between the first and second synchronous pulleys. Positioning holes are symmetrically opened on the outer wall of the cleaning cylinder. The positioning pin and the positioning hole are inserted into each other, which can firmly fix the cleaning cylinder, preventing displacement or loosening of the cleaning cylinder due to vibration, external force, or other factors during the cleaning process. This ensures the stability of the cleaning cylinder and the internal medicinal materials during cleaning, allowing the cleaning work to proceed normally and improving the service life of the equipment.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution, a drain pipe is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaning cylinder, and a valve is installed on the outside of the drain pipe to promptly drain the wastewater generated during cleaning, prevent water accumulation in the cleaning cylinder from affecting the cleaning effect of the medicinal materials, and ensure a smooth cleaning process.

Moreover, during the rotation, the cleaning brush continuously rubs against the surface of the medicinal material, which can effectively remove stubborn stains and dirt. Compared with a single cleaning, this continuous cleaning method can significantly improve the cleaning effect, ensure that the short-stemmed ginseng medicinal material is thoroughly cleaned, and improve the quality of the cleaned medicinal material.
[0013] Secondly, in this utility model, the cleaning cylinder is placed into the mounting groove of the base, and the first synchronous wheel is rotated. The first synchronous wheel drives the second synchronous wheel to rotate through the synchronous belt. The second synchronous wheel drives the rotating seat to rotate. When the rotating seat rotates, the threaded hole follows the rotation. The threaded rod rotates with the threaded hole, thereby controlling the threaded rod to drive the moving seat forward. The moving seat drives the positioning pin forward. The positioning pin is inserted into the positioning hole, which can firmly fix the cleaning cylinder and prevent the cleaning cylinder from shifting or loosening due to vibration, external force or other factors during the cleaning process. This ensures the stability of the cleaning cylinder and the internal medicinal materials during the cleaning process, allows the cleaning work to proceed normally, and improves the service life of the equipment.
