Description

A container for storing Chinese herbal medicine slices Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine storage technology, specifically a storage container for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) decoction pieces are processed products of Chinese medicinal materials that can be directly used in TCM clinical practice or in pharmaceutical production after processing. Among them, TCM decoction piece storage containers are special containers used to store and protect TCM decoction pieces. Before use, the containers should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected with 75% alcohol if necessary. Avoid using strong corrosive cleaning agents. At the same time, the containers should be placed in a cool and dry place, avoiding direct sunlight and high temperatures. The containers should be sealed immediately after each use.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN218870831U, entitled "A Special Storage Device for Traditional Chinese Medicine Pieces," includes a base. A storage container and a grinding box are fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the base. A lid is snapped onto the top of the grinding box, and a cavity is formed inside the lid. A pull rod is inserted into the top of the lid, and a hammer is fixedly mounted on one end of the pull rod inside the grinding box. A sliding plate is fixedly mounted on the surface of the pull rod inside the cavity. The top of the sliding plate is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the cavity by a spring. A discharge pipe is connected to the front surface of the grinding box, and a gate is inserted into the upper surface of the discharge pipe. The base has four fixed plates at its bottom corners, each with a fixing hole and an anti-slip texture on its lower surface. An impact block is fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the crushing box, with a groove on its upper surface that matches the curvature of the hammer's lower surface. A rod hole for a pull rod is provided on the upper surface of the box lid, with the inner wall of the hole slidably connected to the surface of the pull rod. A pull block is fixedly installed on the surface of the pull rod, and the pull block has an anti-slip texture on its surface. A sealing cap is threaded to the top of the storage container, and a vertical rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sealing cap.

[0004] While the existing technologies can store medicinal materials, in practical use, the sealing of the container is not good enough. Usually, the lid is pressed against the top of the container by its own weight, which can cause the lid to loosen under external interference, thus reducing the sealing of the container. On the other hand, it is difficult to remove the powdery impurities on the surface of the medicinal materials. Usually, after the medicinal materials are placed inside the container, the powdery impurities attached to the surface of the medicinal materials will also enter the container, thus reducing the purity of the medicinal materials. Therefore, it does not meet the current needs. In response, we propose a container for storing Chinese herbal medicine slices. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a storage container for Chinese herbal medicine slices, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art of insufficient sealing of the container and difficulty in handling powdery impurities on the surface of the medicinal materials.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a storage container for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, including a base, a storage container fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base, the upper end of the storage container having an open structure, a snap-fit ​​ring fixedly mounted on the outside of the storage container at the open position, a lid mounted on the upper end of the storage container, and six rotating cavities arranged inside the lid, the rotating cavities having an open structure and being distributed in a ring at equal intervals, a fixing hook being arranged inside the rotating cavities, the lower end of the fixing hook extending to the bottom of the snap-fit ​​ring and snapping and fixing it with the snap-fit ​​ring.

[0007] Preferably, the fixed hook is provided with a rotating rod at both the front and rear ends inside the rotating cavity. The other end of the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating cavity. A torsion spring is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod, and the two ends of the torsion spring are fixedly connected to the fixed hook and the inner wall of the rotating cavity, respectively.

[0008] Preferably, a drive motor is fixedly installed at the center of the upper end of the can lid, the output shaft of the drive motor extends to the bottom of the can lid, a mounting rod is fixedly installed at the lower end of the output shaft of the drive motor, and a stirring rack is fixedly installed at the lower end of the mounting rod.

[0009] Preferably, the storage tank is fixedly provided with an installation frame inside the tank below the stirring rack, and a filter plate is provided at the upper end of the installation frame. The filter plate is snapped and fixed to the installation frame, and the side of the filter plate is in contact with the tank wall of the storage tank.

[0010] Preferably, a heating chamber is provided inside the side wall of the storage tank, the heating chamber is distributed in a spiral structure, and a heating wire is fixedly installed inside the heating chamber.

[0011] Preferably, a sealing ring is fixedly provided at the lower end of the can lid located inside the rotating cavity, and the lower end of the sealing ring contacts the upper end of the storage can.

[0012] Preferably, an exhaust pipe is fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the can lid, the exhaust pipe is connected to the can lid, and a valve is fixedly installed on the outside of the exhaust pipe.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] (1) This utility model can fix the lid to the upper end of the storage tank by using a fixing hook and a torsion spring. After the medicine is put into the storage tank, the operator aligns the lid with the upper end of the storage tank and moves the lid downward so that the fixing hook on the lid contacts the upper end of the snap ring. Continue to move the lid downward so that the fixing hook rotates after being squeezed. At the same time, the torsion spring is in a compressed state until the lid is moved to the appropriate position. At this time, the torsion spring resets. The force generated by the reset of the torsion spring drives the fixing hook to rotate. At the same time, the fixing hook snaps into the lower end of the snap ring, thus completing the fixing of the lid and improving the firmness of the lid installation.

[0015] (2) This utility model can filter impurities mixed in Chinese medicine by using a stirring rack and a filter plate. After the medicinal materials are put into the storage tank, the drive motor is turned on, so that the output shaft of the drive motor drives the mounting rod to rotate slowly and evenly. The mounting rod drives the stirring rack fixedly connected to it to rotate together. During the rotation of the stirring rack, the medicinal materials inside the storage tank are stirred, so that the powdery impurities on the surface of the medicinal materials are separated from the medicinal materials. At this time, the impurities fall to the bottom of the storage tank through the filter screen. When new medicinal materials are put in, the operator takes out the filter plate from the storage tank and processes the powdery impurities, thereby improving the purity of the medicinal materials.

[0016] (3) This utility model can dry Chinese medicine through heating chamber and heating wire. After the medicine is placed in the storage tank, the cleaning treatment of the medicine is completed. At this time, the heating wire is energized and the stirring rack is in working state. When the current flows through the heating wire with its own resistance, the heating wire will generate heat. At this time, the heat is transferred to the medicine through the tank wall of the storage tank, which will raise the temperature of the medicine. At this time, the moisture inside the medicine will evaporate faster. At the same time, the valve is opened so that the moisture inside the tank can be discharged from the exhaust pipe. After the drying operation of the medicine is completed, the valve is closed, thereby improving the storage quality of the medicine. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-4. One embodiment of this utility model is a storage tank for Chinese herbal medicine pieces, including a base 1. A storage tank 2 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the base 1. The upper end of the storage tank 2 is an open structure. A sealing ring 11 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the lid 3 located inside the rotating cavity 7. The lower end of the sealing ring 11 contacts the upper end of the storage tank 2. An exhaust pipe 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the lid 3. The exhaust pipe 6 is connected to the lid 3. A valve 18 is fixedly installed on the outside of the exhaust pipe 6.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1, 2, and 3. A snap ring 4 is fixedly installed on the outside of the storage tank 2 at the opening position. A lid 3 is installed at the upper end of the storage tank 2. The lid 3 has six rotating cavities 7 inside. The rotating cavities 7 are open structures and are distributed in a ring at equal intervals. A fixing hook 8 is installed inside the rotating cavities 7. The lower end of the fixing hook 8 extends to the bottom of the snap ring 4 and is snapped and fixed with the snap ring 4. Rotating rods 10 are fixedly installed at both the front and rear ends of the fixing hook 8 inside the rotating cavities 7. The other end of the rotating rod 10 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating cavities 7. A torsion spring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod 10. The two ends of the torsion spring 9 are fixedly connected to the fixing hook 8 and the inner wall of the rotating cavities 7, respectively, so as to facilitate the fixing of the lid 3 by the fixing hook 8 and the snap ring 4.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. A drive motor 5 is fixedly installed at the center of the upper end of the can lid 3. The output shaft of the drive motor 5 extends to the lower part of the can lid 3. An installation rod 13 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the output shaft of the drive motor 5. A stirring rack 12 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the installation rod 13. An installation frame 14 is fixedly installed inside the storage tank 2 below the stirring rack 12. A filter plate 15 is installed at the upper end of the installation frame 14. The filter plate 15 is snapped and fixed to the installation frame 14, and the side of the filter plate 15 contacts the tank wall of the storage tank 2, which facilitates the stirring of the medicinal materials by the stirring rack 12.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 2 and 3. The storage tank 2 has a heating chamber 16 inside its side wall. The heating chamber 16 is distributed in a spiral structure. A heating wire 17 is fixedly installed inside the heating chamber 16 to facilitate the drying of the medicinal materials through the heating wire 17.

[0027] Working principle: In use, the operator aligns the lid 3 with the upper end of the storage tank 2 and moves the lid 3 downwards, causing the fixing hook 8 on the lid 3 to contact the upper end of the locking ring 4. Continuing to move the lid 3 downwards causes the fixing hook 8 to rotate under pressure, while the torsion spring 9 is compressed. This continues until the lid 3 reaches the desired position, at which point the torsion spring 9 resets. The force generated by the resetting torsion spring 9 drives the fixing hook 8 to rotate, simultaneously locking it into place with the lower end of the locking ring 4. At this point, the drive motor 5 is activated, causing its output shaft to drive the mounting rod 13 to rotate slowly and uniformly. The mounting rod 13 then drives the stirring rack 12, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate as well. During the rotation of the stirring rack 12, the medicinal materials inside the storage tank 2 are stirred. At this time, impurities fall to the lower end of the storage tank 2 through the filter plate 15. When new medicinal materials are added, the operator removes the filter plate 15 from the storage tank 2. At this time, the heating wire 17 is energized, and the stirring rack 12 is in working condition. When the current flows through the heating wire 17, which has its own resistance, the heating wire 17 generates heat. At this time, the heat is transferred to the medicinal materials through the tank wall of the storage tank 2, causing the temperature of the medicinal materials to rise. This accelerates the evaporation of moisture inside the medicinal materials. At the same time, the valve 18 is opened, allowing the moisture inside the tank to be discharged from the exhaust pipe 6. After the drying operation of the medicinal materials is completed, the valve 18 is closed.
