[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] To achieve the above-mentioned utility model objectives, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a medicinal material processing and slicing device, including a conveyor box 1 with an opening facing upwards and forwards. Conveyor belts 2 are installed on both the upper and lower sides inside the conveyor box 1, with the front end of the upper conveyor belt 2 shorter than the front end of the lower conveyor belt 2. A cutting box 3 with an opening facing left is connected to the rear end of the conveyor box 1. A dynamic cutting component is installed inside the cutting box 3. A medicine inlet channel 4 is provided between the conveyor box 1 and the cutting box 3, and they are interconnected through the medicine inlet channel 4, which is located at the middle of the front ends of the two conveyor belts 2. A static cutting component is installed below the connection between the medicine inlet channel 4 and the cutting box 3. A medicine outlet channel 5 is connected to the rear end of the lower end of the cutting box 3, and a medicine receiving frame 6 is installed at the rear end of the medicine outlet channel 5. A sealing cap 7 is bolted to the left end opening, and the left end of the dynamic cutting component is connected to the center of the sealing cap 7 via a rotating shaft. During the slicing process, the medicinal material is placed on the upper end of the lower conveyor belt 2. The lower conveyor belt 2 rotates to bring the medicinal material between the two conveyor belts 2, and under the clamping and pushing of the two conveyor belts 2, it enters the medicine feeding channel 4, and then enters the cutting box 3 through the medicine feeding channel 4. At this time, the dynamic cutting component inside the cutting box 3 continuously cuts the medicinal material by rotating with the static cutting component, thereby achieving continuous slicing of the medicinal material. The sliced ​​medicinal material is discharged from the cutting box 3 through the medicine discharge channel 5 and collected by the medicine receiving frame 6.

[0031] Preferably, the static cutting assembly includes a fixed blade groove 8 and a limiting block 11. The fixed blade groove 8 is located on the rear side of the lower inner wall of the drug inlet channel 4, at the connection between the cutting box 3 and the drug inlet channel 4. The front end of the fixed blade groove 8 is connected to a limiting block 9, and both the fixed blade groove 8 and the limiting block 9 are connected to the opening of the cutting box 3. A fixed cutting blade 10 is engaged inside the fixed blade groove 8, and the outer wall of the rear end of the fixed cutting blade 10 is on the same cylindrical surface as the inner wall of the cutting box 3. The front end of the fixed cutting blade 10 is connected to the limiting block 11, and the limiting block... Block 11 is snapped into the limiting slot 9. Since the left end of the cutting box 3 is sealed by the sealing cover 7, and both the fixed blade slot 8 and the limiting slot 9 are connected to the opening of the cutting box 3, the fixed cutting blade 10 and the limiting block 11 can be installed by removing the sealing cover 7. The fixed cutting blade 10 can be fixed in the fixed blade slot 8 by the snapping between the limiting slot 9 and the limiting block 11, so that the dynamic cutting component can perform precise cutting with the fixed cutting blade 10 by rotation. The fixed cutting blade 10 can also be more convenient to maintain and replace.

[0032] Preferably, the dynamic cutting assembly includes a rotating blade wheel 12 and a moving cutting blade 19. The rotating blade wheel 12 is rotatably connected inside the cutting box 3. The left end of the rotating blade wheel 12 is connected to the sealing cover 7 via a rotating shaft, and the rear end of the rotating blade wheel 12 is connected to the cutting motor via a rotating shaft. The rotating blade wheel 12 consists of limit frames at both ends and multiple blade holders in the middle. The multiple blade holders are connected between two limit frames and are arranged in a rotationally symmetrical manner about the central axis of the cutting box 3. Multiple mounting slots 13 are provided on the outer wall of the left end of the limit frame on the left side. A sealing plate 14 is bolted to the inside of the mounting slot 13. A buffer slide 15 is connected to the right end of the mounting slot 13. The buffer slide 15 is opened inside the blade holder. A buffer connecting slot 16 is connected to the end of the buffer slide 15 away from the central axis of the cutting box 3. The buffer connecting slot 16 is opened at the end of the blade holder away from the central axis of the cutting box 3. A buffer slider 17 is slidably connected inside the buffer slide 15. A connecting block 18 is connected to the end of block 17 away from the central axis of the cutting box 3. The connecting block 18 is slidably connected inside the buffer connecting groove 16 and protrudes outside the blade holder. A moving cutting blade 19 is connected to the end of the connecting block 18 away from the buffer slider 17. The moving cutting blade 19 is located outside the blade holder and is in contact with the inner wall of the cutting box 3. During the slicing of the medicinal material, the cutting motor drives the rotating blade wheel 12 to rotate, and the rotating blade wheel 12 drives multiple moving cutting blades 19 to rotate inside the cutting box 3. Since the moving cutting blade 19 is in contact with the inner wall of the cutting box 3, when the moving cutting blade 19 rotates to the position of the medicine inlet channel 4, the moving cutting blade 19 can accurately slide over the outer wall of the rear end of the fixed cutting blade 10 and form a shear with the fixed cutting blade 10, thereby cutting the medicinal material into slices. Multiple moving cutting blades 19 slide over the rear end of the fixed cutting blade 10 in a cycle, so that the dynamic cutting component can cooperate with the static cutting component to continuously slice the medicinal material.

[0033] The buffer slider 17 is slidably connected to a spring limiting seat 20 at one end of the cutting box 3 in the tangential direction. The spring limiting seat 20 is located inside the buffer groove 15. Multiple buffer springs 21 are provided between the spring limiting seat 20 and the buffer slider 17, allowing the buffer slider 17 and the buffer springs 21 to open inside the buffer groove 15 through the multiple spring limiting seats 20. This causes the buffer slider 17 to fit against the shearing direction side inside the buffer groove 15, while simultaneously limiting the moving cutting blade 19 outside the blade holder. When the moving cutting blade 19 cuts the medicinal material... During cutting, the moving cutting blade 19 will be impacted by the reaction force of the medicinal material, which can easily damage the moving cutting blade 19. At this time, under the impact of the reaction force of the medicinal material, the moving cutting blade 19 slides to the side opposite to the cutting direction outside the blade holder, and drives the buffer slider 17 to slide inside the buffer groove 15 and outside the spring limit seat 20. At the same time, it compresses multiple buffer springs 21, so that the moving cutting blade 19 can buffer the impact of the medicinal material through the compression of multiple buffer springs 21, reduce the damage to the moving cutting blade 19, and improve the service life of the moving cutting blade 19.

[0034] Furthermore, the buffer slider 17 and the spring limit seat 20 can be installed by inserting them into the left end of the buffer slide groove 15 through the mounting groove 13, thereby installing the moving cutting blade 19. The mounting groove 13 can be sealed by the sealing plate 14 to limit the buffer slider 17, the moving cutting blade 19 and the spring limit seat 20. Conversely, the buffer slider 17, the moving cutting blade 19 and the spring limit seat 20 can be removed by removing the sealing plate 14, making it easier to maintain and replace the moving cutting blade 19.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
