Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine processing equipment, specifically, to a high-efficiency drying equipment for processing traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] To extend the storage time of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, they need to be dried in an oven after harvesting. For example, application number CN202221079647.4 discloses an open-type drying oven for traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, including an oven body with a material cart inside. Vertical plates are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the oven body, and sealing plates are movably connected to the inner sides of the vertical plates via pins. A cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the oven body. This invention uses an inclined sealing plate in contact with the ground to directly push the material cart into the oven body, significantly improving the ease of movement of the material cart and reducing the impact of the bottom threshold of the oven body on its movement. The cylinder uses a traction rope to pull the sealing plate to flip, providing auxiliary sealing to the oven body and preventing hot air leakage. It also secures the oven door, solving the problem that existing ovens have a simple structure, lack auxiliary support and sealing, severely affecting the efficiency of material cart movement and making them inconvenient for users.

[0003] However, in existing Chinese herbal medicine drying equipment, the herbs always pile up together during use, which prevents them from drying evenly. This requires manual turning of the herbs periodically, affecting drying efficiency. Moreover, after use, the drying equipment accumulates a large amount of impurities inside, requiring manual cleaning, which is very troublesome. Therefore, this application proposes a high-efficiency drying equipment for Chinese herbal medicine processing to solve this problem.

[0004] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content
