A drive shaft 8 is rotatably arranged at the center of the crossbeam 7. A cutting blade holder 9 is installed on the outside of the drive shaft 8.

[0028] A vertical frame 6 is installed on the side of the base plate 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, through the mutual movement and cooperation of multiple structures within the herbal medicine pushing component 4, the herbal medicine pushing component 4 can precisely control the linear motion of the herbal medicine pushing plate 5. When the cutting blade holder 9 is driven and performs a rotary cutting motion, the herbal medicine pushing component 4 can stably and accurately control the pushing speed and position of the herbal medicine, so that the cutting blade 10 can cut according to the set thickness, ensuring that the thickness of each herbal medicine is consistent. At the same time, the cooperation between the herbal medicine pushing component 4 and the cutting blade 10 can realize continuous and automated herbal medicine slicing operations. Compared with traditional manual pushing, the herbal medicine slicing device of this application can significantly improve production efficiency and shorten processing time.

[0030] It should be noted that the herbal medicine pushing component 4 can be controlled by a precise motion control system such as a PLC or CNC controller to control the pushing speed and distance, ensuring that the amount pushed each time is consistent. At the same time, the actions of the herbal medicine pushing component 4 and the cutting blade 10 need to be synchronized and coordinated to ensure that the position and speed of the herbal medicine are matched during cutting. During this period, the control circuit of the coordinated action of the herbal medicine pushing component 4 and the cutting blade 10 can be implemented by those skilled in the art through simple programming. It is common knowledge in the art. It is only used and not modified. Therefore, the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.

[0031] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-2 The bottom of the herbal medicine push plate 5 is attached to the inner wall of the push platform 3; the entire herbal medicine push plate 5 is made of stainless steel.

[0032] In this embodiment, the herbal medicine pusher 5 can reciprocate linearly following the drive of the herbal medicine pushing component 4. The user can place the herbal medicine in the pusher 3 and use the U-shaped cavity of the pusher 3 to support the herbal medicine; at this time, through the rotational cutting action of the cutting blade 10, combined with the linear advancement of the herbal medicine pusher 5, the herbal medicine can be sliced ​​in the cutting groove 91. After slicing, the herbal medicine slices can fall into the collection box 16 for collection.

[0033] It should be noted that stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance, which can resist the acidic or alkaline components in traditional Chinese medicine, preventing chemical reactions between the metal and the medicinal materials, thus maintaining the purity and active ingredients of the herbs. At the same time, the smooth surface of stainless steel facilitates cleaning and disinfection, meets food and pharmaceutical hygiene standards, and helps ensure the safety of sliced ​​traditional Chinese medicine.

[0034] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-2 The cutting blade holder 9 has four sets of cutting blade grooves 91 extending through its center. Four sets of cutting blades 10 are installed around the side of the cutting blade holder 9 along its center. The four sets of cutting blades 10 are respectively set to one of the cutting blade grooves 91 and are set on one side of the cutting blade groove 91.

[0035] In this embodiment, the herbal medicine can be sliced ​​in the cutting groove 91 by the rotating cutting action of the cutting blade 10 and the linear advancement of the herbal medicine push plate 5. The sliced ​​herbal medicine can then fall into the collection box 16 for collection.

[0036] Furthermore, when installing the cutting blade 10, the sharpness of the blade must be checked and maintained regularly to prevent uneven slicing or damage caused by blade dulling during cutting.

[0037] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 The herbal medicine pushing component 4 also includes a forward and reverse motor 45 disposed on the upper surface of the push platform 3. The output end of the forward and reverse motor 45 is connected to a connecting shaft. One end of the threaded screw 42 passes through one of the bearing seats 41 and extends to connect with one end of the connecting shaft.

[0038] In this embodiment, the user connects the forward and reverse motor 45 to an external power source. When the output end of the forward and reverse motor 45 is rotating, the connecting shaft connected to its output end can drive the threaded screw 42 to rotate.

[0039] It should be noted that the forward and reverse motor 45 is connected to a motor controller, which can be used to control the number of rotations and the direction of rotation of the motor. In use, the power connection method of the forward and reverse motor 45 is existing technology, and the control circuit can be implemented by those skilled in the art through simple programming. It is common knowledge in the field. It is only used and not modified. Therefore, the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.

[0040] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-2 One of the vertical frames 6 has a protrusion installed on one side, a connecting plate 11 installed on the other side of the protrusion, and a drive motor 12 installed on the other side of the connecting plate 11. The output end of the drive motor 12 passes through the connecting plate 11 and is connected to the first pulley 13.

[0041] In this embodiment, the provided protrusions can be used to install the connecting plate 11, as in the example. Figure 1 As shown, there is a gap between the connecting plate 11 and the vertical frame 6, so that the first pulley 13 can be installed.

[0042] Furthermore, when the drive motor 12 is connected to the power supply and driven, the first pulley 13 connected to the output terminal of the drive motor 12 can rotate accordingly.

[0043] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-2 A second pulley 14 is also installed on the outside of the drive shaft 8, and a drive belt 15 is tensioned between the second pulley 14 and the first pulley 13.

[0044] In this embodiment, the transmission belt 15 is tensioned outside the first pulley 13 and the second pulley 14, so that when the first pulley 13 rotates, the second pulley 14 can rotate accordingly. When the second pulley 14 rotates, the transmission shaft 8 connected to the second pulley 14 can drive the cutting blade holder 9 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the several cutting blades 10 installed on the cutting blade holder 9 can rotate accordingly.

[0045] This utility model relates to a medicinal herb slicing device for processing traditional Chinese medicine:

[0046] Step 1: When the user needs to slice Chinese herbs, the herbs to be processed are placed in the feed table 3, and the tail end of the herbs is made to fit against the herb pusher plate 5.

[0047] Step 2: After the Chinese herbal medicines are placed, the user can connect the power supply and controller to the drive motor 12, thereby driving the first pulley 13 to rotate. Under the tension connection of the transmission belt 15, the second pulley 14 can rotate accordingly. When the second pulley 14 rotates, the transmission shaft 8 connected to the second pulley 14 can drive the cutting blade holder 9 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the several cutting blades 10 installed on the cutting blade holder 9 can rotate accordingly.

[0048] Step 3: After several cutting blades 10 have rotated along with the cutting blade holder 9, the user can drive the two sets of Chinese herbal medicine pushing components 4, thereby using the Chinese herbal medicine pushing components 4 to achieve linear pushing of the Chinese herbal medicine push plate 5; during this period, the user can connect the forward and reverse motor 45 to an external power source. When the output end of the forward and reverse motor 45 is rotating, the connecting shaft connected to its output end can drive the threaded screw 42 to rotate.

[0049] Step 4: When the threaded screw 42 rotates in both directions, it is limited by the connection of the two sleeves 44 and the forward and reverse motor 45, so that the screw nut 43 engaged with the outside of the threaded screw 42 can drive the sleeves 44 to move in a reciprocating linear motion along the stroke range of the threaded screw 42. At this time, by controlling the rotation direction and number of rotations of the forward and reverse motor 45, the herbal medicine pusher 5 can move in a straight line and push the herbal medicine to the side of the cutting blade 10. At this time, through the rotational cutting action of the cutting blade 10, combined with the linear advancement of the herbal medicine pusher 5, the herbal medicine can be sliced ​​in the cutting groove 91. After slicing, the herbal medicine slices can fall into the collection box 16 for collection.
