[0004] This utility model provides a medicinal material slicing device with a protective structure, specifically including: a slicing frame; a power roller shaft is rotatably connected at a medium distance on the top end face of the slicing frame, a slicing conveyor belt is sleeved on the outer side of the power roller shaft, a control motor is fixedly installed at the middle of the bottom of the slicing frame, adjusting slides are symmetrically slidably connected at the middle of the left and right sides of the slicing frame, a protective cover is hinged to one end of the top of the adjusting slide, and a slicing blade is slidably connected to the rear side of the slicing frame, the slicing blade being located behind the slicing conveyor belt.
[0005] Furthermore, guide slides are fixedly installed at the middle of the top left and right sides of the slicer frame, and two guide plates are installed at the bottom of the slicer frame corresponding to the guide slides. A motor base is fixedly connected at the middle of the bottom end face of the slicer frame. Slide grooves corresponding to the guide plates are opened on the top of the left and right sides of the motor base. A control motor is fixedly installed at the bottom of the motor base, and a control gear is fixedly connected to the top of the shaft of the control motor.
[0006] Furthermore, the middle of the slicing conveyor belt is concave, and the shape of the power roller shaft matches the space formed between the upper and lower end faces of the slicing conveyor belt.
[0007] Furthermore, the adjusting slide is in the shape of a sideways "U", with each of the two adjusting slides missing half of its bottom and sliding interlocking with each other. Control racks are provided opposite to each other on the bottom end faces of the two adjusting slides, and the control racks are respectively meshed and connected to the front and rear sides of the control gear on the top of the control motor.
[0008] Furthermore, the protective shield is arc-shaped, and the bottom of the protective shield is slidably connected to the top end face of the slice conveyor belt.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the described embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0025] Example 1: As shown in the attached document Figure 1 To be continued Figure 6 As shown:
[0026] This utility model provides a medicinal material slicing device with a protective structure, including: a slicing frame 1; a power roller 2 is rotatably connected at a medium distance to the top end face of the slicing frame 1, a slicing conveyor belt 3 is sleeved on the outer side of the power roller 2, the middle of the slicing conveyor belt 3 is concave, the shape of the power roller 2 matches the space formed between the upper and lower end faces of the slicing conveyor belt 3, a control motor 4 is fixedly installed at the middle of the bottom of the slicing frame 1, and adjusting slides 5 are symmetrically slidably connected at the middle of the left and right sides of the slicing frame 1, with one end of the adjusting slide... A protective shield 6 is hinged to the slicing frame 1, and a slicing blade 7 is slidably connected to the rear side of the slicing conveyor belt 3. The slicing blade 7 is located behind the slicing conveyor belt 3. Specifically, it drives the slicing conveyor belt 3 to transport the medicinal materials through the power roller shaft 2. The concave surface of the slicing conveyor belt 3 can better fit the medicinal materials, and with the cooperation of the protective shield 6, it can better ensure the stability of the medicinal material transportation, reduce the displacement of the medicinal materials, and protect the operator during the slicing of the medicinal materials by preventing the medicinal materials from splattering and injuring people.
[0027] The slicer frame 1 has guide clips 101 fixedly installed at the middle of the top left and right sides. Two guide plates 102 are installed at the bottom of the slicer frame 1 corresponding to the guide clips 101. A motor base 103 is fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom end face of the slicer frame 1. The top of the left and right sides of the motor base 103 has grooves corresponding to the guide plates 102. A control motor 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the motor base 103. A control gear 401 is fixedly connected to the top of the shaft of the control motor 4. The adjusting slide 5 is a sideways "U" shape. Both adjusting slides 5 have half their bottom missing and slide interlaced. Control racks 501 are arranged opposite each other on the bottom end faces of the two adjusting slides 5. The control racks 501 are respectively meshed with the front and rear sides of the control gear 401 at the top of the control motor 4. The protective shield 6 is arc-shaped, and its bottom is slidably connected to the slicer conveyor belt 3. On the top end face, two protective shields 6 are rotatably connected at equal distances to their concave arc surfaces. Specifically, through the cooperation of guide clips 101 and guide plates 102, they provide guidance for the sliding of the adjusting slide 5, ensuring the stability of the sliding of the adjusting slide 5. The control motor 4 drives the control gear 401 to rotate. The control gear 401, through meshing with the control rack 501, controls the two adjusting slides 5, thereby controlling the two adjusting slides 5 to move in the same or opposite directions, and thus precisely controlling the opening and closing degree of the protective shields 6. This allows the arc design of the protective shields 6 to better cover the slicing area, fixing the medicinal materials while reducing splashing. The friction-reducing balls 601 in the concave surface of the protective shields 6 can reduce the friction between the medicinal materials and the protective shields 6 during transportation, avoiding damage to the medicinal materials, and ensuring smooth transportation of the medicinal materials.
[0028] The slicer frame 1 has a slicing gantry 104 fixedly installed on the top rear side. Guide grooves 105 are symmetrically formed on the left and right inner walls of the slicing gantry 104. Infrared detectors 106 are fixedly installed on the side walls of the slicing gantry 104 on both sides of the guide grooves 105. The bottom of the telescopic end of the electric cylinder 8, fixedly installed at the top center of the slicing gantry 104, is connected to the top of the rear side wall of the slicer 7. Guide sliders 701 on the left and right side walls of the slicer 7 are slidably connected in the guide grooves 105. Specifically, the telescopic end of the electric cylinder 8 drives the slicer 7 to slide up and down within the guide grooves 105, thus slicing the medicinal materials. The guide sliders 701 and the guide grooves 105 cooperate to ensure the accuracy and stability of the slicer 7's sliding. The infrared detectors 106 monitor the slicing area in real time. When an operator's hand is detected entering the danger zone, a signal is immediately sent to control the electric cylinder 8 to stop or raise the slicer 7, preventing accidents and further improving the safety of the device.
[0029] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:
[0030] When using this herbal slicing device with a protective structure, firstly, according to the size of the herbal material, the control motor 4 drives the control gear 401 to rotate. The meshing of the control gear 401 and the control rack 501 drives the two adjusting slides 5 to slide, adjusting the protective cover 6 to a suitable opening and closing degree. Then, the herbal material is placed on the concave slicing conveyor belt 3, and the power roller shaft 2 drives the slicing conveyor belt 3 to transport the herbal material. At the same time, the protective cover 6 cooperates with the friction-reducing ball bearing 601 to fix the herbal material to ensure stable transport and avoid damage to the herbal material. When the herbal material is transported to the bottom of the slicing blade 7, the extension end of the electric cylinder 8 drives the slicing blade 7 to slide up and down in the guide slide groove 105 to slice. The guide slider 701 ensures that the slicing blade 7 slides accurately and stably, and the infrared detector 106 monitors the slicing area in real time. If an abnormal object is detected entering, a signal is immediately sent to stop the electric cylinder 8 or raise the slicing blade 7.
[0031] Example 2:
[0032] Based on the original protective shield 6, a foldable protective net is installed on the rear edge of the protective shield 6. The protective net is made of flexible steel wire and is normally folded and stored in the side groove of the protective shield 6. When the protective shield 6 is opened to the appropriate position by adjusting the slide 5, the protective net can be manually pulled out of the groove and unfolded to cover the top and sides of the slicing area. The protective net is fixed to the protective shield 6 by buckles to ensure that the protective net will not shake or fall off during the slicing process. This improvement further expands the protection range and can effectively block the medicinal material debris and slices that may splash upward or to the side during the slicing process, providing more comprehensive protection for the operator.
