Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing technology, and in particular to an integrated equipment for cleaning and drying medicinal materials for processing prepared slices of traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces are medicines made from Chinese medicinal materials through processing that can be directly used in clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine. They are an important part of traditional Chinese medicine and are characterized by being easy to store, transport, and use. When producing traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, the medicinal materials are generally required to be dried at an angle to remove impurities such as soil.

[0003] An existing Chinese patent (publication number: CN222491188U) mentions an integrated washing and drying device for Chinese medicinal herbs, relating to the field of Chinese medicinal herb processing technology. It includes a housing, a controller, and a feeding hopper. The controller is embedded in the front wall of the housing. A purification component is horizontally mounted inside the washing tank within the housing, and the washing tank also contains a washing assembly, including a water pump. The other end of a guide pipe is connected to a spray system. From top to bottom, a fruit shell filter plate, an activated carbon filter plate, and a ceramic filter plate are sequentially embedded within the purification plate. A drying assembly, including a fan, is installed in the drying tank. A sliding plate is also installed inside the drying tank, with a heating plate embedded in the upper side wall of the sliding plate. A recovery drawer is embedded in the bottom of the drying tank. The washing assembly cleans the Chinese medicinal herbs, the purification assembly purifies the washing water (achieving water circulation), and the drying assembly dries the cleaned herbs.

[0004] However, in actual operation, when cleaning medicinal materials, the materials are directly sent into the inclined drainage plate inside the box and then rinsed with sprayers. During the cleaning process, the dirt and impurities on the medicinal materials may overlap or come into contact with the drainage plate, resulting in them not being rinsed and affecting the cleaning quality of the medicinal materials. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated cleaning and drying equipment for processing Chinese herbal medicine slices. It can effectively solve the problem that during the cleaning process, dirt and impurities on the herbs may not be rinsed due to overlapping or contact with the drain plate, thus affecting the cleaning quality of the herbs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A comprehensive equipment for cleaning and drying medicinal materials for processing Chinese herbal medicine slices includes a main body with a cleaning chamber and a drying chamber connected to each other. The cleaning chamber contains several spray pipes, and the drying chamber contains a drying fan, several heating pipes, and a drying conveyor belt. A vibrating conveyor mechanism is installed in the cleaning chamber, comprising a flexible conveyor belt with several evenly distributed vibrating blocks within it. A turning mechanism is installed in the drying chamber. A feed hopper is fixed at one end of the main body near the inclined chamber, and a discharge port is located at the end of the drying chamber away from the cleaning chamber.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, a flexible conveyor belt is used to move the medicinal materials in the cleaning chamber. During the movement, the shaking block causes the flexible conveyor belt to shake, and the flexible conveyor belt causes the medicinal materials to shake. This allows the debris attached to the medicinal materials to be shaken off during the cleaning process, and at the same time, the medicinal materials can be turned over during the shaking, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the medicinal materials.

[0009] Furthermore, the flexible conveyor belt is provided with two symmetrical support rollers, which abut against the flexible conveyor belt. A conveying component is provided between the two support rollers and the flexible conveyor belt, and a vibration support component is provided between the several vibration blocks and the main body of the equipment.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveying component drives the flexible conveyor belt to move, and the shaking support component drives several shaking blocks to rotate. This allows the debris on the medicinal materials to be shaken off during the washing process, while reducing the overlap of herbs and improving the washing efficiency.

[0011] Furthermore, the vibration support assembly includes several support rods disposed within the flexible conveyor belt. The two ends of the support rods are rotatably connected to the main body of the equipment. One end of the support rod passes through the main body of the equipment and is fixed with a drive gear. The support rod passes through the corresponding vibration block and is fixedly connected to the vibration block.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, several support rods rotate in the flexible conveyor belt, thereby facilitating the rotation of several shaking blocks in the flexible conveyor belt.

[0013] Furthermore, a synchronization chain is provided on the main body of the equipment, which meshes with several drive gears. A drive motor is fixed on the main body of the equipment, and the output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to one of the drive gears.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, a synchronous chain can be used to drive several drive gears simultaneously, thereby making it convenient for several support rods to rotate at the same time.

[0015] Furthermore, two symmetrical limiting wheels are provided between adjacent drive gears. The limiting wheels are rotatably connected to the main body of the equipment and abut against the synchronous chain.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the synchronous chain is limited in the direction away from the drive gear by the limit wheel, thereby reducing the possibility of the synchronous chain separating from the drive gear.

[0017] Furthermore, the conveying assembly includes conveying gears fixed at both ends of the support rollers, and the conveying gears on both support rollers are driven by support chains. The two support chains are fixedly connected to both sides of the flexible conveyor belt. A second drive motor is fixed on the main body of the equipment. The output end of the second drive motor passes through the main body of the equipment and is fixedly connected to one of the conveying gears.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the two support chains move synchronously, driving the flexible conveyor belt, thereby enabling the flexible conveyor belt to stably support the medicinal materials.

[0019] Furthermore, the turning mechanism includes two symmetrically arranged rotating shafts inside the drying chamber, the rotating shafts being located above the drying conveyor belt, and a plurality of circumferentially distributed turning rods being fixed on the rotating shafts, and a drive assembly being provided between the main body of the equipment and the two rotating shafts.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating shaft drives the turning rod, which in turn turns the medicinal materials, thereby reducing the possibility of the medicinal materials overlapping during drying and improving the drying effect.

[0021] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a tilting motor fixed to the main body of the device, one end of each of the two rotating shafts passes through the main body of the device and is fixed with a tilting gear, a tilting chain is connected between the two tilting gears, and the output end of the tilting motor is fixedly connected to one of the tilting gears.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the turning chain drives two turning gears, thereby enabling the two rotating shafts to rotate simultaneously.

[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial effects;

[0024] 1. This utility model utilizes a support chain to drive a flexible conveyor belt, which in turn moves the medicinal materials within the cleaning chamber. During this movement, the support rod drives the shaking blocks to rotate, and the triangular parts of the shaking blocks alternately abut against and lift the flexible conveyor belt. The shaking blocks cause the flexible conveyor belt to shake, which in turn causes the medicinal materials to shake. This achieves the goal of shaking off impurities attached to the medicinal materials during the cleaning process, while also allowing the medicinal materials to tumble during the shaking, thus improving the cleaning efficiency of the medicinal materials.

[0025] 2. In the drying process, the present invention uses a tumbling motor to drive one of the tumbling gears, which in turn drives a tumbling chain. Then, a rotating shaft drives a tumbling rod, which tumbles the medicinal materials on the drying conveyor belt. This reduces the possibility of the medicinal materials overlapping during drying and improves the drying effect.

[0026] The parts of the device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0035] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0036] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 —6 provides further details regarding this application.

[0037] This application discloses an integrated equipment for cleaning and drying medicinal materials in the processing of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A comprehensive equipment for cleaning and drying medicinal materials for processing Chinese herbal medicine slices includes a main body 1, a cleaning chamber 2 and a drying chamber 3 within the main body 1, which are connected. Several spray pipes 4 are installed in the cleaning chamber 2, and a drying fan 5 and several heating pipes are installed in the drying chamber 3. A drying conveyor belt is installed in the drying chamber 3. A vibrating conveyor mechanism 6 is installed in the cleaning chamber 2, comprising a flexible conveyor belt 61 within the cleaning chamber 2, and several evenly distributed vibrating blocks 62 within the flexible conveyor belt 61. A turning mechanism 7 is installed in the drying chamber 3. A feed hopper 8 is fixed at one end of the main body 1 near the inclined chamber, and a discharge port is opened at the end of the drying chamber 3 away from the cleaning chamber 2.

[0039] When using this integrated medicinal herb drying equipment, first connect the spray pipe 4 to the external water pipe. Then, feed the medicinal herbs to be cleaned from the feed hopper 8 into the cleaning chamber 2 of the main body 1. The herbs then fall onto the flexible conveyor belt 61 of the vibrating conveyor mechanism 6. The flexible conveyor belt 61 moves the herbs, while the spray pipe 4 sprays and washes them. The vibrating block 62 is triangular. When the flexible conveyor belt 61 transports the herbs, the triangular parts of the vibrating block 62 alternately abut against the flexible conveyor belt 61, causing the flexible conveyor belt 61 to vibrate the herbs. The cleaned herbs are then moved directly from the flexible conveyor belt to the drying chamber 3. Inside the drying conveyor belt, the heating plate heats and dries the herbs as they move, while the drying fan 5 on the main body 1 blows the herbs dry. The herbs then exit from the discharge port of the main body 1, completing the cleaning and drying process. The flexible conveyor belt 61 moves the herbs within the cleaning chamber 2, and the shaking block 62 causes the flexible conveyor belt 61 to shake during this movement. The flexible conveyor belt 61 then shakes the herbs, allowing the herbs to shake off any debris attached to them during the cleaning process. The shaking also helps to turn the herbs over, improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The flexible conveyor belt 61 is provided with two symmetrical support rollers 63, which abut against the flexible conveyor belt 61. A conveying component 65 is provided between the two support rollers 63 and the flexible conveyor belt 61. A vibration support component 64 is provided between several vibration blocks 62 and the main body of the equipment 1.

[0041] In addition, the vibration support assembly 64 includes a number of support rods 641 disposed in the flexible conveyor belt 61. The two ends of the support rods 641 are rotatably connected to the main body 1 of the equipment. One end of the support rod 641 passes through the main body 1 of the equipment and is fixed with a drive gear 642. The support rod 641 passes through the corresponding vibration block 62 and is fixedly connected to the vibration block 62.

[0042] Furthermore, a synchronous chain 643 is provided on the main body 1 of the equipment, which meshes with several drive gears 642. A drive motor 644 is fixed on the main body 1 of the equipment, and the output end of the drive motor 644 is fixedly connected to one of the drive gears 642.

[0043] In this embodiment, two symmetrical limiting wheels 645 are provided between adjacent drive gears 642. The limiting wheels 645 are rotatably connected to the main body 1 of the equipment, and the limiting wheels 645 abut against the synchronous chain 643.

[0044] In this embodiment, the conveying component 65 includes conveying gears 651 fixed at both ends of the support rollers 63. The conveying gears 651 on the two support rollers 63 are connected to the support chains 652. The two support chains 652 are fixedly connected to both sides of the flexible conveyor belt 61. A second drive motor 653 is fixed on the main body 1. The output end of the second drive motor 653 passes through the main body 1 and is fixedly connected to one of the conveying gears 651.

[0045] Two support rollers 63 support the flexible conveyor belt 61. A second drive motor 653 drives one of the conveying gears 651, which in turn drives a support chain 652, ensuring the two support rollers 63 rotate synchronously. As the support chain 652 moves, it drives the flexible conveyor belt 61, improving its stability. A drive gear 642 drives a support rod 641, which in turn drives a corresponding vibrating block 62. The triangular wheels on the vibrating block 62 lift the flexible conveyor belt 61, allowing it to vibrate continuously. A first drive motor 644 drives one of the support rollers 653... When the drive gear 642 is in operation, the drive gear 642 drives the synchronous chain 643, which facilitates the simultaneous rotation of several drive gears 642. When the synchronous chain 643 is in operation, the limit wheel 645 limits the synchronous chain 643, reducing the possibility of the synchronous chain 643 disengaging from the drive gear 642. By having the conveying gear 651 drive two support rollers 63, and the two support chains 652 drive the flexible conveyor belt 61, and then having several support rods 641 drive the shaking block 62 to rotate, the shaking block 62 drives the flexible conveyor belt 61 to shake. This allows the debris on the medicinal materials to be shaken off during cleaning, while reducing the overlap of herbs and improving the cleaning efficiency of the medicinal materials.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The turning mechanism 7 includes two rotating shafts 71 symmetrically arranged in the drying chamber 3. The rotating shafts 71 are located above the drying conveyor belt. Several circumferentially distributed turning rods 72 are fixed on the rotating shafts 71. A drive assembly 73 is provided between the main body of the equipment 1 and the two rotating shafts 71.

[0047] In addition, the drive assembly 73 includes a flipping motor 733 fixed on the main body 1, one end of two rotating shafts 71 passing through the main body 1 and fixed with flipping gears 731, a flipping chain 732 drivingly connecting the two flipping gears 731, and the output end of the flipping motor 733 fixedly connected to one of the flipping gears 731.

[0048] After the cleaned medicinal materials fall onto the drying conveyor belt, the drying fan 5 and the heating tube dry the materials. During the drying process, the turning motor 733 drives one of the turning gears 731, which in turn drives the turning chain 732, enabling the two rotating shafts 71 to rotate synchronously. Then, the rotating shafts 71 drive the turning rod 72, which turns the medicinal materials on the drying conveyor belt. By turning the medicinal materials during their movement using the turning rod 72, the possibility of overlapping during drying can be reduced, thus improving the drying effect.

[0049] Working Principle: When using this integrated medicinal herb cleaning and drying equipment, the medicinal herbs that need to be tilted are first fed from the feeding hopper into the cleaning chamber 2 of the main body 1 of the equipment. Then, the herbs fall onto the flexible conveyor belt 61. The drive motor 653 drives the conveying gear 651, which in turn drives the support chain 652. The two support chains 652 drive the flexible conveyor belt 61 to move. The flexible conveyor belt 61 carries the herbs through the spray pipe 4 for spray cleaning. During the cleaning process, the drive motor 644 drives one of the drive gears 642, which in turn drives the other drive gears 642 to rotate via the synchronous chain 643. This causes several support rods 641 to drive the vibrating blocks 62 to rotate on the flexible conveyor belt 61. The flexible conveyor belt 61 rotates, and the three corners of the shaking block 62 alternately abut against the flexible conveyor belt 61, causing the flexible conveyor belt 61 to shake the medicinal materials. While shaking, the medicinal materials are washed by the spray pipe 4. The washed medicinal materials fall from the flexible conveyor belt 61 onto the drying conveyor belt. The drying conveyor belt moves the medicinal materials in the drying chamber 3. The drying fan 5 and the heating pipe dry the medicinal materials. During the process of moving and drying the medicinal materials, the turning motor 733 drives one of the turning gears 731. The turning gear 731 drives another turning gear 731 through the turning chain 732, so that the two rotating rods drive the turning rod 72. The turning rod 72 turns the medicinal materials. After the medicinal materials are dried, they leave from the discharge port of the main body 1 of the equipment.
