[0024] The interior of the housing 1 is equipped with a screening component 4. One end of the screening component 4 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 1 via a shaft and bearing. The rotating end of the screening component 4 is located directly below the feed hopper 2. The free end of the screening component 4 rests on the screening port 6. The height of the rotating end of the screening component 4 is higher than the height of the free end of the screening component 4, which is used to screen the particle size of the material. The screening component 4 includes a screen plate 401. The rotating end and the middle of the screen plate 401 are provided with a screen mesh 402. The free end of the screen plate 401 has a narrow opening structure to match the width of the screening port 6. Baffle strips 403 are welded on both sides of the screen plate 401.
[0025] A toggle mechanism is provided below the free end of the screening component 4 to continuously agitate the free end of the screening component 4, causing the screening component 4 to vibrate. The toggle mechanism includes a rotating shaft 5, which is located below the free end of the screening component 4. Both ends of the rotating shaft 5 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 1 through bearings. A cam 51 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 5. The rotating shaft 5 is connected to the shaft of one of the crushing rollers 3 through a transmission component 52. When the free end of the screening component 4 is placed on the screening inlet 6, the non-protruding part of the cam 51 contacts the bottom end of the screening component 4. A guide plate 7 is provided in the middle of the housing 1. The guide plate 7 is located between the screening component 4 and the drying component 8, and is used to receive the material screened by the screening component 4 and guide the material to the drying component 8.
[0026] A drying assembly 8 is installed below the screening assembly 4 to receive small particles after screening by the screening assembly 4 and to dry them. The drying assembly 8 includes a drying cylinder 801, with an inlet 802 at the upper end of the drying cylinder 801 near the screening inlet 6 and an outlet 803 at the lower end of the drying cylinder 801 away from the screening inlet 6. An annular hot cavity 804 is provided between the inner and outer walls of the drying cylinder 801, and an electric heating tube 805 is spirally wound inside the hot cavity 804. The drying assembly 8 also includes a stirring shaft 806, with both ends of the stirring shaft 806 rotatably connected to the inner ends of the drying cylinder 801 via bearings. Multiple stirring blades 807 are equidistantly arranged on both sides of the outer wall of the stirring shaft 806, and one end of the stirring shaft 806 is driven by a second motor 808. The end of the drying cylinder 801 near the outlet 803 is supported by a lifting assembly 9, and the end of the drying cylinder 801 near the inlet 802 is rotatably connected to the housing 1 via a rotating shaft.
[0027] In this embodiment: the pharmaceutical raw materials are crushed by two crushing rollers 3, and the crushed pharmaceutical raw materials are screened by the screening component 4. Then, the screened pharmaceutical raw materials are guided by the guide plate 7 to the drying component 8 for drying and stirring. The overall operation is simple, the crushing and drying time of pharmaceutical raw materials is reduced, and the work efficiency is greatly improved.
[0028] Specifically, pharmaceutical raw materials are first fed into the feed hopper 2. The first motor 32 drives one crushing roller 3 to rotate, and the other crushing roller 3 is driven to rotate synchronously in the opposite direction under the action of the gear set 31, thereby crushing the pharmaceutical raw materials. The crushed raw materials will fall onto the rotating end of the screening component 4, and then slide from the rotating end of the screening component 4 to the free end of the screening component 4. During the sliding process of the raw materials, small particles will fall onto the guide plate 7, while large particles will slide out from the screening port 6.
[0029] To ensure smooth screening of raw materials by the screening component 4, this solution uses one of the crushing rollers 3 to drive the rotating shaft 5 to rotate via the transmission component 52. The rotating shaft 5 will drive the cam 51 to rotate continuously, thereby creating a vibration effect to improve the screening efficiency of the screening component 4.
[0030] After large particles of raw material flow out of the screening port 6, they can be collected by the material frame and then poured back into the feed hopper 2 for crushing. The raw material that falls on the guide plate 7 will slide from one end of the guide plate 7 to the other end and fall into the inner cavity of the drying cylinder 801. The interior of the drying cylinder 801 is heated by the electric heating tube 805, so that the inner cavity of the drying cylinder 801 forms a hot space. At the same time, the stirring shaft 806 can be driven to rotate by the second motor 808. The stirring shaft 806 drives the stirring blade 807 to stir and stir the raw material, so that the raw material is heated evenly and the drying efficiency is improved.
[0031] After the raw materials are dried, the lifting assembly 9 drives the end of the drying cylinder 801 near the discharge port 803 to descend. At this time, the material in the drying cylinder 801 will flow out of the discharge port 803, completing the collection of the raw materials. After the collection is completed, the lifting assembly 9 pushes one end of the drying cylinder 801 to rise, so that both ends of the drying cylinder 801 return to the same position height. The lifting assembly 9 is a cylinder and a hydraulic rod.
[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
