[0029] like Figures 1-6As shown, the medicinal herb washing machine provided in this embodiment includes a frame 1, an outer shell 2 on the top of the frame 1, a roller 3 rotatably mounted on the inner side of the outer shell 2, a drive mechanism mounted on the outer shell 2 at one end of the roller 3, a drying component and a cleaning component mounted side by side on the top of the inner side of the roller 3, the drying component includes a fan 4 mounted on the outer wall of the outer shell 2 and an air pipe 5 connected to the air outlet of the fan 4, the cleaning component includes a water pump 6 mounted on the outer wall of the outer shell 2 and a water pipe 7 connected to the output end of the water pump 6, multiple air nozzles 8 connected to the bottom of the air pipe 5, and multiple spray heads 9 connected to the bottom of the water pipe 7, a support column 20 rotatably connected to the outer shell 2 is fixedly connected to one end of the top of the frame 1, and an electric telescopic rod 21 rotatably connected to the outer shell 2 is rotatably mounted to the other end of the top of the frame 1. By setting a cleaning component inside the drum 3, the water pump 6 draws water through the water pipe 7 and the spray head 9 to clean the medicinal materials. The drum 3 rotates under the action of the drive mechanism, which can turn the medicinal materials over, making the cleaning more thorough and improving the cleaning efficiency. By setting a drying component, after cleaning, the blower 4 dries the medicinal materials through the air pipe 5 and the air nozzle 8. In conjunction with the rotation of the drum 3, the drying efficiency is improved. With the setting of the support column 20 and the electric telescopic rod 21, after the medicinal materials are dried, the electric telescopic rod 21 tilts the drum 3, thereby discharging the medicinal materials, which is quick and convenient.
[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the drive mechanism includes a motor 10, a driving wheel 11, a driven wheel 12, and a transmission belt 13. The motor 10 is mounted on the top of the housing 2. The driving wheel 11 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 10. The driven wheel 12 is connected to the outer wall of one end of the drum 3. The transmission belt 13 connects the driving wheel 11 and the driven wheel 12. Multiple circumferentially distributed rotating wheels 14 are rotatably mounted on the inner side of the housing 2. The motor 10 drives the driving wheel 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the drum 3 to rotate via the transmission belt 13. The rotating wheels 14 ensure smooth rotation of the drum 3.
[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a water outlet pipe 15 is connected to the bottom of the outer casing 2, and a water tank 16 is installed on the frame 1.

Both ends of the air pipe 5 and water pipe 7 are connected to support rods 26 mounted on the outer casing 2. The brush plates 18 and bristles, when the roller 3 rotates, rub the surface of the medicinal materials, improving cleaning efficiency. The casters 19 facilitate movement, and the support rods 26 support the air pipe 5 and water pipe 7.
[0033] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-6 As shown in the figure, the working process of the medicinal material washing machine provided in this embodiment is as follows:
[0034] Step 1: Place the medicinal materials into the drum 3. The motor 10 drives the drive wheel 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the drum 3 to rotate via the transmission belt 13.
[0035] Step 2: Water pump 6 draws water through water pipe 7 and spray head 9 to clean the medicinal materials. Roller 3 rotates under the action of drive mechanism to turn the medicinal materials over. After cleaning is completed, water pump 6 is turned off and blower 4 dries the medicinal materials through air pipe 5 and air nozzle 8.
[0036] Step 3: After the medicinal materials are dried, the roller 3 is tilted by the electric telescopic rod 21, thereby discharging the medicinal materials.
