A first connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the first base plate and to the side of the first support plates that are close to each other. There are two first connecting plates, and a discharge component is provided on the side of the two first connecting plates that are far apart from each other.

[0004] However, it was found during the use of the device that it was not very effective at removing moisture from Bupleurum chinense, which increased the complexity of changing the cotton cloth rings and reduced work efficiency and ease of use. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a kneading device for drying Bupleurum chinense, which improves the convenience of drying Bupleurum chinense, reduces the complexity of personnel changing parts, and improves the drying efficiency of Bupleurum chinense.

[0006] This utility model discloses a kneading device for drying Bupleurum chinense, comprising a base and a container, with the container positioned above the base. It also includes a support device, a tilting device, a heating device, a kneading roller, and multiple sets of drainage holes. The kneading roller is mounted above the container via the support device, which drives its rotation and vertical movement. The container is mounted on the base via the tilting device, which drives its rotation and oscillation. A heating device is located on the outer wall of the container to heat it. Multiple sets of drainage holes are located at the bottom of the container. After Bupleurum chinense is placed inside the container, the support device drives the kneading roller to move downwards while simultaneously rotating, allowing the roller to extend into the container. During this movement, the roller kneads and squeezes the Bupleurum chinense, expelling moisture. The expelled moisture is discharged downwards through the drainage holes, thus improving the convenience of drying Bupleurum chinense and reducing the complexity of personnel changing parts. Simultaneously, the heating device heats the container, drying the Bupleurum chinense and improving the efficiency of the drying process.

[0007] Preferably, the support device includes a drive device, a bracket, a support column, a spiral groove, a guide block, multiple sets of telescopic rods, and multiple sets of springs. The bracket is installed on the top of the base, and the support column slides through the top of the bracket. The top of the support column is connected to the drive device, which drives the support column to move up and down. The spiral groove is set on the outer wall of the support column. The guide block is installed on the top of the bracket and slides with the spiral groove. Multiple sets of telescopic rods are set between the bottom of the support column and the top of the kneading roller. Multiple sets of springs are respectively installed on the multiple sets of telescopic rods. The drive device drives the support column to move downward, causing the support column to drive the kneading roller to move downward and extend into the tank. After the support column moves downward, it rotates in the forward direction through the cooperation of the spiral groove and the guide block, so that the kneading roller rotates in the forward direction synchronously during the downward movement to knead the Bupleurum chinense. When the support column moves upward, it rotates in the reverse direction through the cooperation of the spiral groove and the guide block, thereby improving the linkage effect of the device, reducing energy consumption, and improving work efficiency.

[0008] Preferably, the driving device includes a guide column, a top plate, a support plate, and an electric cylinder. The guide column is installed on the top of the bracket, the top plate is installed on the top of the guide column, the support plate is slidably installed on the guide column, the electric cylinder is installed on the top of the top plate, the output end of the electric cylinder is connected to the support plate, and the top of the support column is rotatably connected to the bottom of the support plate. The electric cylinder drives the support plate to move up and down, thereby causing the support plate to drive the support column to move up and down.

[0009] Preferably, the flipping device includes a motor and a fixed frame. The tank is mounted on the upper part of the fixed frame, and the lower part of the fixed frame is rotatably mounted on the base. The motor is mounted on the outer wall of the base, and the output end of the motor is connected to the rotating end of the fixed frame. The motor drives the fixed frame to swing and rotate, thereby causing the fixed frame to flip the tank, which improves the convenience of pouring out the Bupleurum chinense in the tank.

[0010] Preferably, the heating device includes a shell and a heating tube, the shell being disposed on the outer wall of the tank and the heating tube being disposed inside the shell; the tank is heated by the heating tube, thereby heating and drying Bupleurum in the tank.

[0011] Preferably, it also includes a collection tank, which is located at the top of the base and below the tank; water discharged from multiple sets of drainage holes is collected through the collection tank, improving the convenience of water collection.

[0012] Preferably, the collection tank is placed on the base by a limiting block; this improves the positioning effect of the collection tank and enhances the convenience of the collection tank in collecting water.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: After Bupleurum is placed inside the tank, the kneading roller is moved downward and rotated by the support device, so that the kneading roller extends into the tank. During the movement of the kneading roller, Bupleurum is kneaded and squeezed, and the water in Bupleurum is squeezed out. The squeezed water is discharged downward through multiple sets of drainage holes, thereby improving the convenience of Bupleurum drying and reducing the complexity of personnel changing parts. At the same time, the tank is heated by the heating device, so that the tank heats and dries Bupleurum, thereby improving the efficiency of Bupleurum drying process. Attached Figure Description
