Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of feeding equipment for stir-frying machines, and specifically relates to a feeding structure for stir-frying machines. Background Technology
[0002] In the processing and production of traditional Chinese medicine, it is often necessary to roast and stir-fry the medicinal materials. This roasting and stir-frying process is generally completed manually. However, manual roasting and stir-frying has problems such as high labor intensity, low work efficiency, uneven stir-frying, and easy burning or uneven roasting. Therefore, roasting and stir-frying machines are now used for most of the roasting and stir-frying processes.
[0003] The existing herbal roasting machine uses a feeding structure that typically includes a frame set on the ground, an auger mounted on the frame, a discharge port mounted on top of the auger, and a hopper mounted on the bottom of the auger. When in use, the operator pushes the auger to the side of the herbal roasting machine to add material into the machine.
[0004] However, during the feeding process of the herb roasting machine, since the height of the herb roasting machine varies, feeding mechanisms of different heights are required to feed the herb roasting machine. This results in low versatility of the feeding mechanism and fails to meet people's usage needs. Therefore, a feeding structure for herb roasting machines is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of this, this utility model addresses the shortcomings of the existing technology by providing a feeding structure for a medicinal herb frying machine. This structure not only meets the basic requirement of feeding materials but also allows for adjustment of the feeding mechanism through a height adjustment mechanism, thereby improving the versatility of the device and meeting people's usage needs.

[0011] This design includes a second rotary motor. The rotation of the second rotary motor drives the worm gear to rotate, which in turn drives the meshing worm wheel to rotate, thereby causing the rotating shaft to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft then drives the material box to rotate, thus effectively causing the material inside the material box to be poured out.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, a switch is provided on the front side of the base plate, and the switch is electrically connected to the first rotary motor and the second rotary motor.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] Firstly, this design includes a first rotary motor. The rotation of the first rotary motor drives a lead screw, which in turn moves a movable plate up and down along a guide rod, thereby moving the material box up and down. This facilitates the feeding of materials to the roasting machines of different heights. Secondly, this design includes a second rotary motor. The rotation of the second rotary motor drives a worm gear, which in turn drives a meshing worm wheel, causing the rotating shaft to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft then drives the material box to rotate, effectively causing the material inside the material box to be poured out.
[0015] Secondly, this design incorporates a support plate, which increases the overall contact distance between the device and the ground, thereby making the device more stable.
[0016] Thirdly, this design incorporates multiple casters, which make the equipment more convenient to operate.
