Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a sampling device, specifically a sampling device for testing the medicinal properties of traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) preparations are any form of medicine that must be formulated for medical or preventative use before clinical application. These dosage forms include tablets, injections, aerosols, pills, powders, and ointments. The preparation of TCM preparations typically involves multiple steps, such as decoction and extraction, to achieve the desired pharmaceutical state. However, because each stage of the decoction process requires separate sampling, the decoction process must be stopped for this purpose, which is time-consuming and inconvenient for sampling operations. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a sampling device for testing the medicinal properties of traditional Chinese medicine preparations. It effectively solves the problem that the current method of sampling requires stopping the decoction process because each stage of the decoction process needs to be sampled separately, which is time-consuming and inconvenient for sampling operations.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: The present invention includes an externally disposed shell, a cooking chamber installed at the bottom of the inner side of the shell, and a preparation tank disposed on the cooking chamber, a lifting assembly, a connecting rod, a crossbeam, a vertical rod, and a sampling cup. The lifting assembly is installed at the rear wall of the shell, a connecting rod is installed at the front end of the lifting assembly, a crossbeam is installed at the bottom end of the connecting rod, three vertical rods are fixed at the bottom end of the crossbeam, and a sampling cup is installed at the bottom end of the vertical rod.
[0005] The lifting assembly includes a housing, a lead screw, a drive motor, guide columns, a lifting block, a threaded hole, and a guide hole. The housing is fixed to the rear wall of the housing. A lead screw is installed in the middle of the inner side of the housing. A drive motor is installed at one end of the lead screw. Two guide columns are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the lead screw. A lifting block is provided on the lead screw, and a threaded hole is opened on the lifting block at the position corresponding to the lead screw.
[0006] Preferably, a filter screen is detachably installed on the top of the inner side of the sampling cup.
[0007] Preferably, a drain pipe is provided on one side of the bottom of the sampling cup, and a drain valve is installed on the drain pipe.
[0008] Preferably, the lifting block has a guide hole at the position corresponding to the guide column.
[0009] Preferably, the crossbeam is equipped with a downward-blowing air outlet pipe, which is connected to an external cooling fan.
[0010] Preferably, a steam pipe is provided on one side of the cooking chamber.
[0011] Beneficial effects: When using this invention, to sample important traditional Chinese medicine preparations inside the preparation container, the drive motor operates, which drives the lead screw to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw, in conjunction with the threaded hole on the lifting block, causes the lifting block to move downwards on the lead screw. This movement of the lifting block causes the connecting rod, crossbeam, vertical rod, and sampling cup to move downwards until the sampling cup enters the preparation container. The traditional Chinese medicine preparation inside the container can then be sampled through the sampling cup. After sampling, the drive motor operates again, driving the lead screw to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw, in conjunction with the threaded hole on the lifting block, causes the lifting block to move upwards on the lead screw. This movement of the lifting block causes the connecting rod, crossbeam, vertical rod, and sampling cup to move upwards, thus raising the sampling cup. At this point, the traditional Chinese medicine preparation can be released from the sampling cup for medicinal property testing. The operation is simple and convenient. This utility model has a novel structure and ingenious design, which facilitates the sampling of traditional Chinese medicine preparations in the preparation container, thereby facilitating the testing of the medicinal properties of the traditional Chinese medicine preparations. It is simple and convenient to operate, and the sampling cup can be controlled to take samples at different stages through the lifting component, making it highly applicable.

The traditional Chinese medicine preparation in the preparation tank 3 is sampled. After sampling, the drive motor 13 drives the lead screw 12 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 12, in conjunction with the screw hole 16 on the lifting block 15, causes the lifting block 15 to move upward on the lead screw 12. The movement of the lifting block 15 drives the connecting rod 5, the crossbeam 6, the vertical rod 7 and the sampling cup 8 to move upward, thus raising the sampling cup 8. At this time, the traditional Chinese medicine preparation can be released from the sampling cup 8 for medicinal property testing. The operation is simple and convenient.
