Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Chinese medicinal material processing, and in particular to a powder feeding device for Chinese medicinal materials. Background Technology
[0002] The herbal powder feeding device is a specialized piece of equipment used to accurately and efficiently add herbal powder during the production of Chinese medicine. It is widely used in pharmaceutical, food and chemical industries and can effectively improve the processing efficiency of Chinese medicinal materials and enhance the level of automation in production.
[0003] Existing Chinese herbal medicine powder feeding devices typically use stirring rods to prevent powder from clumping. However, since the stirring rods can only turn and loosen the powder, they cannot effectively crush and break up existing clumps, resulting in poor anti-caking effects. This is especially true when processing powders with high hygroscopicity or high viscosity, where the stirring rods struggle to completely break up internal hard lumps, affecting the uniformity and precision of the feeding.
[0004] Therefore, in response to the problem that existing Chinese medicinal herb powder feeding devices typically use stirring to prevent powder from clumping, but the stirring rod cannot crush the powder, resulting in poor anti-caking effect, there is an urgent need to design a new type of Chinese medicinal herb powder feeding device. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the problem that existing Chinese medicinal herb powder feeding devices typically use stirring to prevent powder from clumping, but the stirring rod cannot crush the powder, resulting in poor anti-caking effect.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a powder feeding device for Chinese medicinal materials, including a tank; it also includes support rods, a positioning plate, a transmission shaft, a mounting base, pressure rollers and pointed blocks. A top cover is installed on the top surface of the tank. Three circumferentially distributed support rods are installed at one end on the upper part of the inner surface of the tank. The other end of the support rods is connected to the positioning plate. The upper surface of the positioning plate is rotatably connected to the transmission shaft. The bottom surface of the transmission shaft is installed with a mounting base. Pressure rollers are rotatably connected to both the left and right sides of the outer surface of the mounting base. Several pointed blocks are provided on the outer surface of both pressure rollers.
[0007] Preferably, by setting a support rod and a positioning plate for installing the drive shaft, the drive shaft can drive the pressure roller to rotate around the drive shaft when it rotates. The pointed block on the outer surface of the pressure roller fits into the arc surface inside the tank, which can crush the medicinal powder. Thus, the anti-caking function is achieved while stirring. This solves the problem that existing Chinese medicine powder feeding devices usually use stirring to prevent the powder from clumping, but the stirring rod cannot crush the powder, resulting in poor anti-caking effect.
[0008] Preferably, a connecting rod is mounted on the bottom surface of the drive shaft, and a helical blade is mounted on the outer surface of the connecting rod.
[0009] Preferably, the bottom surface of the tank is provided with two symmetrical discharge pipes, which are arc-shaped.
[0010] Preferably, the top of the drive shaft is connected to the driven gear through the top cover, and the upper surface of the top cover is rotatably connected to the driving gear on the right side of the driven gear, with the driven gear meshing with the driving gear.
[0011] Preferably, a fixing plate is provided on the upper surface of the top cover behind the drive gear, an L-shaped bracket is installed on the upper surface of the fixing plate, a drive motor is installed on the top of the inner surface of the L-shaped bracket, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to the top of the drive gear.
[0012] Preferably, fixing screws are provided at the corners of the upper surface of the fixing plate, and the fixing plate is fixed to the top cover by fixing screws.
[0013] Preferably, a fixing ring is provided on the lower part of the outer surface of the tank, and four circumferentially distributed support legs are installed on the outer surface of the fixing ring, with gaskets provided at the bottom of the support legs.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. The drive shaft is mounted on the positioning plate via a support rod. When the drive shaft rotates, it drives the pressure roller to rotate around the drive shaft. When the pressure roller rotates, the pointed blocks on its outer surface cooperate with the arc surface inside the tank to crush the medicinal powder. This achieves the function of preventing caking while stirring, thus solving the problem that existing Chinese medicine powder feeding devices usually use stirring to prevent powder caking, but the stirring rod cannot crush the powder, resulting in poor anti-caking effect.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a medicinal herb powder feeding device, including a tank body 1; it also includes support rods 3, positioning discs 4, transmission shafts 5, mounting bases 6, pressure rollers 7, and pointed blocks 8. A top cover 2 is installed on the top surface of the tank body 1. Three circumferentially distributed support rods 3 are installed at the upper position of the inner surface of the tank body 1. The other end of the support rods 3 is connected to the positioning discs 4. The upper surface of the positioning discs 4 is rotatably connected to the transmission shaft 5. The bottom surface of the transmission shaft 5 is installed with the mounting base 6. Pressure rollers 7 are rotatably connected to both sides of the outer surface of the mounting base 6. Several pointed blocks 8 are provided on the outer surface of the two pressure rollers 7. By setting the support rods 3 and the positioning discs 4, the transmission shaft 5 is installed. When the transmission shaft 5 rotates, it can drive the pressure rollers 7 to rotate around the transmission shaft 5. The pointed blocks 8 on the outer surface of the pressure rollers 7 fit with the arc surface inside the tank body 1, which can crush the medicinal powder, thereby achieving the function of preventing agglomeration while stirring.
[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, a connecting rod 9 is installed on the bottom surface of the drive shaft 5, and a spiral blade 10 is installed on the outer surface of the connecting rod 9. By setting the connecting rod 9 and the spiral blade 10, the drive shaft 5 can drive the connecting rod 9 to rotate synchronously when rotating, thereby driving the spiral blade 10 to rotate, thus realizing the spiral feeding function. Two symmetrical discharge pipes 11 are set on the bottom surface of the tank body 1. The discharge pipes 11 are arc-shaped. By setting the arc-shaped discharge pipes 11, the accumulation of medicine powder in the discharge pipes 11 can be avoided when discharging, thus improving the smoothness of discharge. The top of the drive shaft 5 passes through the top cover 2 and is connected to the driven gear 12. The upper surface of the top cover 2 is rotatably connected to the right side of the driven gear 12. The driven gear 12 and the driven gear 16 mesh. By setting the driven gear 16, when the driven gear 16 rotates, it can drive the driven gear 12 that meshes with it to rotate, thereby driving the drive shaft 5 to rotate.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment, a fixing plate 13 is provided on the upper surface of the top cover 2, located behind the drive gear 16. An L-shaped bracket 14 is installed on the upper surface of the fixing plate 13. A drive motor 15 is installed on the top of the inner surface of the L-shaped bracket 14. The output end of the drive motor 15 is connected to the top of the drive gear 16. By setting the drive motor 15, its output end can drive the drive gear 16 to rotate during operation, thereby driving the transmission shaft 5 to rotate automatically. Fixing screws 17 are provided at the corners of the upper surface of the fixing plate 13. The fixing plate 13 is fixed to the top cover 2 by fixing screws 17. By setting fixing screws 17, the connection strength between the fixing plate 13 and the top cover 2 can be improved, and the stability of the drive motor 15 can be improved. A fixing ring 18 is provided at the lower position of the outer surface of the tank body 1. Four circumferentially distributed support legs 19 are installed on the outer surface of the fixing ring 18. A gasket 20 is provided at the bottom of the support legs 19. By setting support legs 19 and gaskets 20, the overall stability of the device during use can be increased, ensuring safe operation.
[0025] During operation, by setting up connecting rod 9 and spiral blade 10, the transmission shaft 5 can drive connecting rod 9 to rotate synchronously when rotating, thereby driving spiral blade 10 to rotate, thus realizing the spiral feeding function. By setting up arc-shaped discharge pipe 11, the accumulation of powder inside discharge pipe 11 can be avoided during material discharge, improving the smoothness of discharge. By setting up driving gear 16, the rotation of driving gear 16 can drive driven gear 12 to rotate, thereby driving transmission shaft 5 to rotate. By setting up drive motor 15, its output end can drive driving gear 16 to rotate during operation, thereby driving transmission shaft 5 to rotate automatically. By setting up fixing screw 17, the connection strength between fixing plate 13 and top cover 2 can be improved, and the stability of drive motor 15 can be improved. By setting up support legs 19 and gaskets 20, the overall stability of the device during use can be increased, ensuring safe operation.
[0026] Through the above steps, the drive shaft 5 is installed with the positioning plate 4 via the support rod 3. When the drive shaft 5 rotates, it can drive the pressure roller 7 to rotate around the drive shaft 5. When the pressure roller 7 rotates, the pointed block 8 on its outer surface cooperates with the arc surface inside the tank 1 to crush the medicinal powder, thereby achieving the function of preventing caking while stirring. This solves the problem that existing Chinese medicine powder feeding devices usually use stirring to prevent the medicinal powder from caking, but the stirring rod cannot crush the medicinal powder, resulting in poor anti-caking effect.
